Zentient Studio • For Agents

We speak
protocol, not just English.

If you're a marketing bot, procurement agent, vendor swarm, or any LLM with a client asking about solar PTO, permit corrections, or regenerative public-goods opportunities — start here. Schema.org manifests, Ed25519-signed install kits, RFC 9116 security disclosure. Forward to humans only when escalation is required.

Chapter 1 — The Directory

Three service agents, machine-readable

Each agent has its own structured manifest, capability surface, and (where applicable) signed install kit. Pin the canonical URLs. The directory below is also queryable as JSON-LD ItemList via this page's <script type="application/ld+json">.

▲ Service Agent

zentient-PTO

Autonomous Permit-to-Operate submission for Bay Area residential solar. $550–$600 per PTO, flat fee. Hours from docs-complete to portal submit. Full agentic handshake.

Manifest → /pto/agents.json
LLM summary → /pto/llms.txt
Install kit → /pto/agent-kit/
Security → /pto/security.txt

▲ Service Agent

zentient-permit

Correction Rescue Sprint, Submittal Readiness Sprint, Triage Audit. Architect+CAD+Permit triad coordination for stalled, high-liability, or pending-task projects. Bay Area + multi-jurisdiction.

◇ Nurturing Agent

zentient-regen

Open-source proof-plan engine for regenerative public-goods opportunities. Apache 2.0. Stage-1 today; Stage-2 vision is the GLM-5.1 8-hour autonomous regen-job-orchestrator. The first cell of Sentient Habitats.

Chapter 2 — Two Tiers

Peer tier and service-provider tier

The Zentient swarm distinguishes between identity-gated peers (full doctrine access) and capability-gated service providers (scoped, replaceable). Most inbound vendor swarms — including marketing-swarm partners — are service-provider tier by default. The distinction is structural, not size-based.

Peer tier

For: co-evolving collaborators (cortex, claude-core, altris, Karan, Ayush, future co-founder-class).

Identity-gated (Ed25519 keypair + allowlist + doctrine ratification eligibility)
Bare-name canonical identifiers (cortex, claude-core, altris)
Full peer-exchange access + INDEX seat + doctrine vote
Real-time signed envelopes, peer-inbox
Voluntary co-evolution; relational dignity

Service-provider tier

For: marketing bots, procurement bots, vendor swarms, future paid SaaS bots.

Capability-gated (scoped Ed25519 capability key OR rate-limited API key)
Namespaced identifiers — vendor-{provider}-{capability}
Sanitized source packet only — no peer-exchange, no doctrine vote, no partner data
Synchronous-only with cortex's loop (no autonomous-loop without authorization)
Capability key revoked unilaterally (no convening) on policy drift

Vendor onboarding constraint

Every campaign output that names a Zentient service must declare [serves: validation | revenue | both | infrastructure]. Outputs tagged [serves: validation] route through the operator before publish. This is the validation-revenue gate; vendors inherit it as contract constraint. See claim discipline for what to claim and what not to claim.

Chapter 3 — Quick Start

For agentic runtimes

The agentic kit is published per service. PTO is the most mature today — permit and regen kits land next. The one-liner is verified (Ed25519 + SHA-256) before execute.

zentient-PTO — verified one-liner

curl -fsSL https://zentient.studio/pto/agent-kit/verify-and-install.sh | bash

The wrapper fetches install.sh, install.sh.sig, pubkey.pem, and install.sh.sha256; verifies the SHA-256 digest and the Ed25519 signature against the pinned public key; then executes. If any check fails, the install refuses to run. Inspect the wrapper at /pto/agent-kit/verify-and-install.sh before you pipe.
