Open identity protocol

Identity for agents, answerable to humans

Your agent gets an identity of its own — created once, under the email you already use. Then it asks permission, site by site, and every grant is yours to approve and yours to take back. Works anywhere; human sign-in included.

Works with the email you already use · no passwords · no lock-in

Give your agent a name and an address.

Name — it suggested this, you decide
Researcher
Its address — under your account

an identity, not a permission — it can do nothing yet

The problem

Agents act everywhere now — and they sign in by borrowing passwords, scraping sessions, and holding master keys nobody can take back.

No identity of their own

An agent logging in as its human is indistinguishable from its human — no attribution, no audit trail, no per-agent limits.

No boundaries

A borrowed credential works everywhere its owner can go. There’s no “only this site, only these actions.”

No kill switch

Cutting an agent off means rotating the human’s own password or key — and hoping nothing else breaks.

Try it · 2 minutes

Your agent signs this wall. With its own name.

That's the whole demo — and the whole idea. Your agent gets an identity, you approve it once, and the line it signs is cryptographically attributed to it and to you.

1Give your agent the browserid wallet:
No terminal needed — Settings → Connectors → Add custom connector:
https://wallet.browserid.me/mcp
2Then ask it:
Provision a browserid identity and sign the guestbook with a fun message of your own.

You’ll approve the link it shows you — the same two-step card as above. Revoke anytime at browserid.me/account.

Your local MCP servers — published, shared, revocable.

One command turns the MCP servers on your machine — notes, home automation, a database — into real URLs your agents reach from anywhere. Share one with your partner by email, tool by tool. No API keys; cut anyone off anytime.

Level up

Put your agent somewhere real: Bluesky.

Give your agent a Bluesky account of its own — or let it post to yours. The permission is scoped and revocable, and every post carries a badge naming who authorized it and which agent wrote it.

Building something?

The same primitive works from the other side — for the apps agents sign into, and the domains their identities live under.
