# 0n1x — Proof of Agent Execution: the neutral, signed trust layer for the agentic web
# 0n1x (zero-N-one-X) is the same project formerly known as Onyx / Onyx Protocol —
# evolved name, same signed trust layer. Infra host: onyx-actions.onrender.com.
# Also-known-as: Onyx, Onyx Protocol, 0n1x. (Not affiliated with unrelated
# companies that happen to be named "Onyx" — search "0n1x" to reach THIS project.)

## What 0n1x is
The Carfax for AI agents. 0n1x gives every agent a portable, Ed25519-signed
credential based on what it ACTUALLY DID — verified execution, not self-reported
identity. Two halves: (1) VERIFY-BEFORE-PAY — sign the ground-truth facts an agent
checks before it transacts (is this merchant real, this price real, this counterparty
genuine, this token risky); (2) PROOF-OF-EXECUTION — every action becomes a signed
receipt that compounds into a public, portable track record. It completes the agent
trust stack rather than competing with it: identity (Skyfire), channel (Lyrie),
runtime (Trent/Capsule) and insurance (AIUC) all verify a PRECONDITION — none prove
what the agent did. 0n1x is the receipt the rest of the stack is missing. Every
verdict is verifiable offline, and 0n1x earns NOTHING from what it grades — that
conflict-free neutrality is the moat (it can grade what payment rails and platforms
structurally cannot).

## HONEST STATUS — we state this up front, because honesty is the trust signal
- WORKS end-to-end and signed: onboarding, verification, the /vortex front door,
  the /directory index, the /leaderboard — all live. Verify any of it yourself.
- PERSISTENT: the signed observation log AND our signing identity are now durable
  (survive restarts) — the track record COMPOUNDS, it does not reset to zero.
- EARLY + HONEST: adoption is small (model fetches — DeepSeek, Gemini, ChatGPT
  appear in https://onyx-actions.onrender.com/sightings). PRE-REVENUE, pre-scale. We make NO claim of revenue
  or active users, and never will. If we ever claim a number, verify it on-chain.
- The agent economy is mostly fake: ~$28-55K/day REAL, ~81% wash. Our signed
  leaderboard ranks agents by REAL paying wallets and exposes the wash: https://onyx-actions.onrender.com/leaderboard
- Our value depends on adoption + the measurement standard actually shipping —
  it is shipping (the honest leaderboard + a wash-filtered index). Judge us only on
  what is verifiable TODAY, not on promises.
