Agentic Trust Protocol (ATP): Foundational Concepts & Architectural Principle Article Swipe
This foundational note introduces the Agentic Trust Protocol (ATP), a system-level governance framework designed to regulate factual commitments made by autonomous AI agents. ATP reframes hallucination as a governance failure, not a model failure, and establishes architectural invariants for entity binding, trust evaluation, conflict preservation, and verification pathways. This high-level release is intended as a priority-establishing public disclosure for the conceptual origin of ATP. Implementation details remain proprietary under Naseem A2A Research Lab.
