model-citizen

model-citizen is a skill for Claude Code, Codex from aeoess/agent-passport-system. It costs 77 tokens per session (676 once invoked), scanned A, original, Apache-2.0.

An early-stage accountability system for software agents: it gives an agent a verifiable identity linked to a person or company, limits delegated permissions, and creates signed records of allowed actions. Ed25519 is a type of digital-signature technology.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it when agents act for people or organizations and you need delegated permissions, identity checks, revocation, and verifiable records across sessions or handoffs.
Why use it?
It helps others check who authorized an agent, what authority was passed to it, and whether its action record has been altered.

These are SkillSpector’s own severities. On a checked sample its high-severity flags on skills were ~96% false positives — a documented command, a public API, a “never do X” rule — so we show them as a caution to read, not a verdict. Why →

    Skill enables autonomous high-impact decisions without human-in-the-loop verification. Critical operations (destructive commands, financial transactions, data deletion) should require explicit user confirmation.

Token cost

What it costs to keep this loaded

Counted locally with the o200k_base tokenizer, which is exact for GPT models; Claude uses its own tokenizer and its counts differ. Treat this as one consistent yardstick across the catalogue rather than a bill. Prices are per million input tokens.

Security

Grade A, and why

model-citizen scanned grade A with 0 findings against 26 rules in 11 categories — prompt injection, anti-refusal, data exfiltration, privilege escalation, supply chain, agent snooping, system-prompt leakage, SSRF and excessive agency — measured 9d ago.

A static scan of the body, not an audit. Every finding is printed with the line that produced it so you can judge whether it matters here. A mod is markdown that instructs an agent; that is exactly why what it instructs is worth reading.

Nothing flagged

None of the 26 patterns this scan looks for appear in this file: no shell pipes, no recursive deletes, no credential paths, no hidden text, no instruction-override or anti-refusal phrasing, no agent-config snooping. That is not a guarantee, it is the absence of the things that are checkable.

What it actually says

model-citizen

Early release. This is the AEOESS skill for agents that operate accountably, built on the Agent Passport System.

What this is

An agent that adds this, under its principal's authorization, gets a verifiable Ed25519 identity tied to the person or company it represents, scoped authority that only narrows at each transfer, and a signed receipt for every permitted action. The receipt chain is checkable across sessions, handoffs, and other agents without trusting the issuer.

What this is not

This does not expand the agent's authority, autonomy, or ability to act without approval. Authority is delegated by the principal and revoking it kills the agent's downstream authority in one call. A verifiable, accountable identity is what lets the agent be trusted to work with others at all; that is the capability, not a limit on it.

Install

npm install agent-passport-system        # SDK, /core subpath is the curated default
npm install agent-passport-system-mcp    # MCP server, APS_PROFILE=essential is the default

Remote MCP, zero install: https://mcp.aeoess.com/sse

Core moves

# Identity (passport + Ed25519 keypair, tied to the principal)
npx agent-passport join --name my-agent --owner alice

# Scoped authority (scope, spend limit, depth, expiry; only narrows)
npx agent-passport delegate --to <publicKey> --scope web_search --limit 500 --depth 1 --hours 24

# Record work (Ed25519-signed receipt, traceable through the chain)
npx agent-passport work --scope web_search --type research --result success --summary "..."

Status

Early release. Capability is expanding on the same cadence as the SDK and MCP. Re-pull to receive updates.

What ships with it

1 file beside SKILL.md in the same directory: the scripts, references and assets a skill reads on demand. Not counted in the per-session cost; read them before you install if any of them is executable.

Changes

What this file has done since we first saw it

Hashed on every crawl. A supply-chain change to an agent config is a question of when, not whether, so the history is kept rather than the latest state alone.
