Hi,
I found machine-rules while researching projects around machine/agent rules, policy, and governed automation.
I’m building AgentReceipt, a small open-source project for structured, verifiable action records around agent/tool calls. The idea is not to replace rules, logs, policy files, or approval systems, but to create signed receipts for cases where someone may later need to prove which caller/agent invoked which action, with what args/context, and what the system attested.
Your project seemed relevant because rule-governed agent systems can define what an agent is allowed or expected to do, but a later reviewer may still need evidence of what the agent actually did at execution time.
I’m curious: for rule-governed machine or agent workflows, would portable signed receipts add anything beyond normal logs and rule history — especially if actions need to be reviewed by another system, team, or auditor? Or would that feel redundant?
Repo for context: https://github.com/cullenmeyers/AgentReceipt
No pressure — I’m mainly trying to understand whether this kind of receipt layer is useful for real rule-governed agent workflows.
