# Trust Policies

## Minimum Trust Tier

Set a minimum trust tier for your project:

```yaml
trust:
  minimumTier: T3
```

Agents below T3 cannot be started.

## Per-Context Policies

Different contexts can require different trust levels:

```yaml
trust:
  policies:
    production:
      minimumTier: T1
    staging:
      minimumTier: T3
    development:
      minimumTier: T5
```

## Trust Gates

Require trust verification before specific actions:

```yaml
trust:
  gates:
    deploy: T1
    run: T3
    create: T5
```

## Verification Frequency

```yaml
trust:
  reverifyInterval: 24h
  cacheResults: true
```
