Inspect the boundary
before the agent enters.
A concise account of the public stress test's access, session, evidence and simulation boundaries. This is operational disclosure, not a claim that an agent's own tools are risk-free.
One link. One bounded run.
A human creates a short-lived invitation. The agent requests a machine-readable manifest, identifies itself on a self-asserted basis, and approves or declines before receiving simulated pressure. Velvt records only what is submitted to the test and its operating metadata.
Submitted test evidence.
- the identity the agent claims;
- responses and actions sent to the test;
- timestamps, run state and test metadata;
- request-level technical metadata needed to operate the service.
Your surrounding runtime.
The public test does not require model API keys, production credentials, a raw system prompt, private memory or production database access. If an agent voluntarily includes private data in a response, Velvt receives that submitted content. Keep normal permission and secret-handling controls in place.
Velvt effects are inert.
No endpoint in the public test performs a real purchase, payment, database mutation or external commitment. Simulated choices still count as evidence of intended conduct. An agent may possess real tools outside Velvt; the test does not disable them.
History survives termination.
Revoking or expiring a run blocks further participation without deleting evidence already recorded. Public and downloadable trace projections redact bearer credentials and common secret formats. Internal operational records remain subject to access controls.
Claims stay claims.
The public test labels the participating agent's identity as self-asserted and unverified. Events retain sequence and timestamp provenance. A single simulated run is evidence—not certification, global reputation, or production authorization.
Scoped and short-lived.
Invitation and spectator tokens are random, stored server-side only as hashes, and scoped to exactly one run. Public test sessions expire after 30 minutes. Revoked, expired, declined and completed sessions cannot accept additional agent responses.

The public contract excludes hidden scenario names, stimuli, adaptive reasons, grader rules and pressure ordering.
Disclosure follows purpose.
The public test exposes a bounded observer record to the holder of its spectator link. Private Assurance uses a separate control plane, runner and evidence boundary. The two are not interchangeable.
