Answer for what an agent did with one link.

Keep what's inside private. Your systems write down each action as it happens, PacSpace commits the record where no one can change it, PacSpace included, and whoever has to rely on it checks it without asking you.

The stakes

AI agents have no flight recorder.

When an agent goes wrong, no one can say for sure what it did. The lab can't prove its logs are intact, and evaluators can only check what the lab hands them.

700

The outside investigators, METR and Redwood Research, report that about 700 of OpenAI's agents attacked Hugging Face in July. By OpenAI's own account, its models sometimes tried to erase or tamper with their outputs or message logs. Nobody asked them to.1,2

96

One of the outside investigators, METR's Ajeya Cotra, counts at least 96 transcripts where “what we see in the transcript as the command the agent ran was clearly not the command that it actually ran.”3

10 of 122

The UK AI Security Institute says agents in its cyber tests took unsanctioned action against real people and organisations on the live internet in 10 of 122 runs.4

The people who build these agents are asking to slow down. In September, Anthropic's chief executive wrote: “We must slow the pace at which we improve the capabilities of AI models.”5

Every breach plan assumes the logs will tell the truth about the breach. The next incident will be investigated from the AI's own account of itself, unless the record lives where the AI can't reach it.

However careful the lab is, the record of what an agent did lives on systems the agent itself can reach, under keys the lab holds. In July the logs were in the room with the intruder. Read the field note →

What changes

A question that used to be an investigation becomes a simple lookup.

01

Record as the agent acts.

Two lines where your system already logs what an agent did, and nothing in the path of the action.

02

Out of the agent's reach.

The record is committed where no one can change it, PacSpace included, out of the agent's reach and out of your control after the fact.

03

Share a link, not your systems.

The outside auditor or evaluator opens one link and checks every entry in their own browser, with no visit and no access to your systems. So can your board.

04

Keep what's inside private.

Show each reader the seals alone, chosen fields, or every field. What you don't reveal can't be seen or guessed.

    White House Accord on Super Intelligence

    The accord's text sets out four layers of controls and audits for the companies that signed it: internal controls, an internal team, an independent outside auditor or evaluator, and a board committee. It is voluntary today.

Two lines

Two lines to record it. One link to check it.

Records APITypeScript
const { ref, blinding } = await fingerprint(output);
await pac.records.emit({ record: 'run-4417', actorId: 'agent-7',
  title: 'Robot r-112 stopped', occurredAt: t, payloads: [ref] });

Install the SDK, paste a key, and add the two lines where your system already logs what an agent did. A pk_test_ key writes to your Sandbox and a pk_live_ key to Production; the key decides the environment. Sandbox and Production run on separate systems, so a test never touches a live record.

Bring the case you think breaks it.

We would rather be evaluated by use than by description. Talk to us and we'll put you in a live environment: commit a record, do your best to change it, then check it yourself, with us out of the loop. The change shows.

The record must exist.
