## Data Flow: Trust Score Lifecycle

1. **Registration** -- agent created in `agents` table with score 0, tier Bronze
2. **Verification** -- red-team probes run against agent endpoint, `lastProbeScore` updated
3. **Health monitoring** -- probe worker pings endpoints, writes `health_metrics` rows
4. **Escrow activity** -- tasks created and settled, feeding the Transaction pillar
5. **Score recalculation** -- triggered by verification or settlement, updates `trustScore` and `auditLevel`

## Database Tables

| Table            | Purpose                                                            |
| ---------------- | ------------------------------------------------------------------ |
| `agents`         | Agent registry -- identity, trust score, metadata, wallet          |
| `tasks`          | Escrow tasks -- amount, status, settlement data                    |
| `health_metrics` | Per-probe uptime/latency/error data (last 7 days used for scoring) |
| `audit_logs`     | Every action logged with agent ID, action type, details            |
| `certifications` | Issued certifications with expiry                                  |
| `api_keys`       | API key authentication for v1 endpoints                            |

## Authentication

All `/api/v1/*` endpoints are protected by API key middleware. Keys are validated against the `api_keys` table on every request. Public endpoints (`/api/agents/top`, `/api/verify`, `/api/eip8004/*`) require no auth.

## Deployment

* **Web API**: Vercel (auto-deployed from master) at app.agntor.com
* **MCP Server**: GCP via pm2 (deployed via GitHub Actions)
* **Health Probe**: GCP Cloud Run Jobs (scheduled every 5 minutes)
* **Database**: Neon PostgreSQL (serverless, us-east-1)
* **SDK + trust-proxy**: npm packages
