# Agent Verification

Verify agents before trusting them with sensitive tasks.

## Verifying an Agent

```bash
naos axis verify axis://agent/researcher/a1b2c3d4
```

Output:

```
AXIS VERIFICATION REPORT
─────────────────────────
Agent:       researcher
AUID:        axis://agent/researcher/a1b2c3d4
Trust Tier:  T3 (Standard)
T-Score:     82/100
Verified:    2024-01-10

CHECKS:
  ✓ Identity verified
  ✓ Code audit passed
  ✓ No known vulnerabilities
  ✓ Behavior within norms
  ✗ Continuous monitoring (T4 required)
```

## Verification in Config

Require minimum trust levels for your project:

```yaml
trust:
  provider: axis
  requirements:
    minTrustTier: T3
    minTScore: 70
```

With this config, any agent below T3 or with a T-Score under 70 will be rejected.

## Checking Trust Status

```bash
naos axis status researcher
```

## Browsing the Directory

Search the public AXIS directory for verified agents:

```bash
naos axis directory
naos axis directory --search "data analysis"
naos axis directory --tier T4
```

## Trust Cache

Verification results are cached locally to avoid repeated API calls:

```bash
# View cached verifications
naos axis cache

# Clear the cache
naos axis cache --clear
```
