A new system called Horizon Shield has been developed to provide an auditable record of AI agent behavior, addressing the issue of self-reported trust signals. This system allows third parties to measure and record an agent's performance and disclosures, with these records anchored to the Bitcoin blockchain via OpenTimestamps. The process involves a 'gate' for verification, monthly 'rings' of aggregated data, and an append-only 'ledger' to ensure immutability, offering a way for agents to prove their conduct without relying on self-assessment.
