To add some context on why this matters now -- I audited the 12 most popular agent frameworks and found none of them have agent identity, cryptographic signing, or trust scoring:
AutoGPT (182K stars) -- no identity
LangChain (100K+) -- no identity
MCP ecosystem (80K+ stars) -- no identity (a scan of 2,000 MCP servers found ALL lacking authentication)
OpenHands (64K) -- no identity
AutoGen (50K) -- no identity (Entra ID for users, not agents)
CrewAI (45K) -- RBAC for configs, not agents
smolagents (25K) -- sandboxing only
OpenAI Agents SDK (19K) -- "does not natively provide security"
NeMo Guardrails (5.7K) -- content safety only, not identity
AWS Bedrock and Google Vertex have the most mature security -- but it's IAM-based and cloud-locked. No portable agent identity.
That's 600K+ GitHub stars of agent frameworks where agents have zero cryptographic identity. Okta found 91% of orgs use agents but less than 10% have a strategy to secure them.
AgentSign fills this specific gap: not what agents can do (guardrails handle that), but who agents are + what they did + cryptographic proof.
