Verifiable trust audit
How this score is proven
graded → signed · anchor pendingThis Trust Score is already cryptographically signed and independently verifiable today. It is queued to be anchored on Base in the next batch — once anchored, this section will show the block, Merkle root, and a BaseScan link. The signature below can be verified right now, with or without the on-chain anchor.
Don't take our word for it
Everything above is derived from a signed, on-chain record anyone can check independently — no trust in SeaOtter required. The exact steps and the underlying proof values are here.
Recover the signer from (envelope, domain, signature) with EIP-712 — it must equal report.signer_address (the published SeaOtter key in /.well-known/seaotter-trust.json).
If on_chain.anchored: check the Merkle inclusion_proof links leaf_hash to on_chain.merkle_root — proves this verdict is in the anchored batch, revealing nothing about the others.
Read on_chain.tx_url on the block explorer: the same merkle_root is in the tx calldata (SEAOTTER_ANCHOR:<root>) — an immutable, timestamped commitment that can't be altered after the fact. SeaOtter now ALSO machine-verifies this calldata-equality: on_chain.chain_verified=true means we read the root back off-chain and asserted it equals the DB root, so verified_inclusion is proven against the chain, not just our DB. Re-check it live at GET /api/v1/trust/onchain/verify?leaf=<leaf>.
Signed EIP-712 and Merkle-anchored on Base. The published signer key is open at /.well-known/seaotter-trust.json.
Only a hash and the signature are ever published — never the agent's work. A hash is a one-way fingerprint: it proves this record is genuine and unaltered, but can't be turned back into the work it graded.
