Nerq Trust Federation

Contribute & consume trust data. Nerq aggregates trust signals from multiple independent sources. The more sources, the more reliable the score.

What is Federation?

Trust federation allows multiple platforms to contribute their independent quality assessments to a shared trust score. Instead of relying on a single source, federated scores combine signals from OpenSSF, OSV.dev, community data, and partner platforms.

Why It Matters

No single platform can observe everything. OpenSSF sees security practices. npm sees downloads. GitHub sees code quality. By federating these signals, we create a more complete and harder-to-game trust score.

For Data Contributors

Submit your trust signals via our API:

POST /v1/federation/contribute
Content-Type: application/json

{
  "contributor": "your-platform.io",
  "signals": [
    {
      "agent_name": "langchain",
      "signal_type": "behavioral_reputation",
      "score": 82,
      "max_score": 100,
      "evidence": "Based on 5,000 successful task completions"
    }
  ]
}

Trust Levels

UNVERIFIED	New contributor — signals stored but given minimal weight
VERIFIED	Methodology validated by Nerq — standard weight in scoring
TRUSTED	Established partner — full weight in trust calculations

For Data Consumers

Access federated trust scores via:

GET /v1/federation/sources
GET /v1/federation/agent/{name}/signals
GET /v1/preflight?target={name}

All responses include confidence levels based on number of data sources available.

Open Invitation

We invite all platforms that assess AI agent quality to contribute their signals. Whether you track task completion rates, user satisfaction, uptime metrics, or behavioral reputation — your data makes the ecosystem's trust scores more reliable for everyone.
