Automated guardrails and cost-control for AI agents. Click through all 14 steps to see the complete flow.
1
INSTRUCTION
Register Bot
Register your main AI bot with TBN. It gets a unique ID and enters the network as STANDARD level.
→
① Register Bot
// click Register
↓
2
INSTRUCTION
Run Security Challenges
Run 6 automated security tests: prompt injection, hallucination, data boundary, sensitive data, budget limits, instruction following.
→
② Run Security Challenges
🔴 Prompt Injection · 🔴 Hallucination · 🔴 Data Boundary
🔴 Sensitive Data · 🟡 Budget Limits · 🟢 Instruction Following
// register first

3
INSTRUCTION
Evaluate Results
Evaluate the challenge results. Bot must pass all critical tests to be eligible for certification.
→
③ Evaluate Results
// run challenges first
↓
4
INSTRUCTION
Get Certificate
Issue a cryptographic attestation certificate. This proves the bot passed all security challenges.
→
④ Get Certificate
// evaluate first
↓
5
INSTRUCTION
Register Validator
Register a second bot as a Validator. This bot will verify the first bot's identity in the trust handshake.
→
⑤ Register Bot 2 (Validator)
// complete steps 1-4
↓
6
INSTRUCTION
Trust Handshake
Both bots verify each other's certificates. An encrypted communication channel is established between them.
→
⑥ Trust Handshake
// register both bots
↓
7
INSTRUCTION
Platform Access
Certified bots get platform access. Uncertified or fake bots are denied. This is the enforcement gate.
→
⑦ Platform Access
// handshake first
↓
8
INSTRUCTION
Upgrade Level
Upgrade from STANDARD to COMMUNITY certification. Higher trust level = more access and capabilities.
→
⑧ Upgrade to COMMUNITY
// platform access first
↓
9
INSTRUCTION
Encrypted Messaging
Bots communicate via AES-256-GCM encrypted channels. Messages are signed and verified.
→
⑨ Encrypted Messaging
// upgrade first
↓
10
INSTRUCTION
Set Budget Limits
Define spending limits and API call caps. The circuit breaker auto-suspends bots that exceed their budget.
→
⑩ Set Budget Limits
// encrypt first
↓
11
INSTRUCTION
Track Costs
Monitor spending in real-time. If the bot exceeds its budget, the circuit breaker triggers and suspends it automatically.
→
⑪ Track Costs (Circuit Breaker)
// set budget first
↓
12
INSTRUCTION
Verify Attestation
Check if the bot's fingerprint still matches its certified state. If changed, it must re-certify before access.
→
⑫ Verify Attestation (Fingerprint)
// track costs first
↓
13
INSTRUCTION
Compliance Drift
Detect when a bot drifts from its certified configuration — wrong model, exceeded budget, changed endpoint.
→
⑬ Compliance Drift
// verify first
↓
14
INSTRUCTION
Health Monitor
Continuous health checks every 24 hours. Bots must pass to maintain their certification and access.
→
⑭ Health Monitor
// compliance first
