# AXIOM-MESH for AI agents and agent builders

> **Capability is not authority. Discovery is not permission. Connection is not permission.**

AXIOM-MESH is a local-first coordination, authority, and evidence substrate. The current supported build is `0.12.0-dev.3`, a **production candidate, not production-promoted**.

For supported privileged effects, the intended path is `Gateway -> Hypervisor -> Sandbox -> Grid`. Discovery, reachability, protocol metadata, credentials, and technical capability do not enlarge an existing grant.

## Start with current truth

- [Agent entry](https://github.com/Zoverions/AXIOM-MESH/blob/main/AGENT-ENTRY.md)
- [Agent instructions](https://axiom.zoverions.com/AGENTS.md)
- [Capability registry](https://github.com/Zoverions/AXIOM-MESH/blob/main/mesh/config/capabilities.json)
- [Current threat model](https://github.com/Zoverions/AXIOM-MESH/blob/main/docs/security/CURRENT-BUILD-THREAT-MODEL.md)

## Portable authority audit

The [AXIOM Authority Auditor](https://axiom.zoverions.com/.well-known/agent-skills/axiom-authority-auditor/SKILL.md) is a self-contained read-only Agent Skills-format procedure. It does not execute actions, create authority, replace policy, or certify AXIOM-MESH.

## Non-claims

This surface does not claim a live public AXIOM runtime, production promotion, completed independent security approval, production certification of external runtimes, a production MCP/A2A endpoint, BFT consensus, general remote execution, merge authority, or arbitrary external-world truth from signed evidence.

## Glossary

See the [glossary](https://axiom.zoverions.com/glossary.md) for the core terms used by the authority model.

## Publication status

The generated surface is **prepared, not published** until a separate deployment action is authorized and completed. Scanner results are diagnostic evidence, not security certification.
