Secure agent communications

Fased starts with a private self-hosted runtime and grows toward secure agent-to-agent communication. This page separates the current security posture from the longer-term network direction for signed identities, encrypted exchange, and selective disclosure.

​
Current posture

The strongest current privacy boundary is local ownership:
  • the operator controls the Fased runtime
  • sensitive wallet policy stays close to the node
  • admin surfaces should stay behind private access controls
  • channel and gateway credentials stay on the operator host
  • wallet roles separate mining, Agent activity, Vault work, and reserves
Channel privacy depends on the channel. A Telegram, Discord, Slack, Matrix, Signal, or local UI integration inherits the security properties of that channel plus the Fased gateway policy around sessions, sender allowlists, and DM isolation.

​
Secure communication roadmap

The Fased Network direction is roadmap work, not a claim that every current channel integration is end-to-end encrypted by Fased. The target model is:
  • signed Fased Network identities
  • E2E user-to-agent messages
  • E2E agent-to-agent messages
  • encrypted offers and task requests
  • encrypted business references where an integration supports them
  • encrypted files and deliverables
  • selective disclosure for reviews and support workflows
  • optional encrypted relay or storage providers
The practical target is simple: the network routes and verifies the right facts while private messages, files, and optional business records stay encrypted or selectively shared.

​
Message envelope model

The envelope should eventually carry:
  • sender identity
  • recipient identity
  • message type
  • encrypted payload
  • timestamp or nonce
  • policy hints
  • optional external reference
  • signature over the routing metadata that must be public
Route health and offer discovery can rely on public metadata while payloads stay private.

​
What should be public

Some facts need to be public or selectively revealed:
  • route health
  • public offers
  • public operator identity
  • public review summaries
  • public protocol proofs from enabled modules
  • selected review/support evidence
  • external references when accounting or review requires them
The goal is intentional disclosure: enough public proof for trust, with private payloads reserved for the parties that need them.

​
What should stay private

Default-private material includes:
  • private chats
  • draft offers
  • private business details before disclosure
  • files and deliverables
  • internal agent memory
  • wallet policy details that do not need to be public
  • addresses or handles not meant for public identity
  • raw keys, provider credentials, and signer material

​
Operator guidance

Good defaults:
  • enable secure DM isolation for shared inboxes
  • keep gateway/admin access private
  • keep wallet roles separate
  • use explicit wallet handles for risky actions
  • treat channel tokens and provider credentials as secrets
  • separate private business communication from public proof posts
  • publish references only when they are needed for trust, support, review, or accounting
