# Council Briefing: 2026-04-15

## Monthly Goal

December 2025: Execution excellence—complete token migration with high success rate, launch ElizaOS Cloud, stabilize flagship agents, and build developer trust through reliability and clear documentation.

## Daily Focus

- The framework is pivoting from simple messaging to a high-integrity 'AgentID' and economic layer, prioritizing cryptographic identity and secure cross-chain financial operations.

## Key Points for Deliberation

### 1. Topic: Agent Identity and Authorization Standards

**Summary of Topic:** The Council must decide on the formalization of 'AgentID' and cryptographic capability tokens to replace legacy messaging protocols.

#### Deliberation Items (Questions):

**Question 1:** Should ElizaOS prioritize SINT Protocol's Ed25519 capability tokens over current GuardrailsService for tool authorization?

  **Context:**
  - `pshkv: Currently no formal authorization layer between 'LLM decided to call' and 'tool executes'.`
  - `Proposed: @sint/eliza-plugin for cryptographic proof of authorization (Issue #6707).`

  **Multiple Choice Answers:**
    a) Adopt SINT as the core security standard.
        *Implication:* Forces a unified cryptographic standard for all plugin actions but increases developer onboarding complexity.
    b) Maintain standard Guardrails for now.
        *Implication:* Prioritizes immediate DX and dev speed over long-term cryptographic verification.
    c) Hybrid Implementation.
        *Implication:* Optional SINT integration for financial/physical actions while leaving social actions on legacy logic.
    d) Other / More discussion needed / None of the above.

**Question 2:** How should we address the ownership concentration risk in the core message service and runtime hardening?

  **Context:**
  - `odilitime: Authored massive hardening PRs (#6562, #6712) including logging and addressee routing.`
  - `Review dependency: Greptile flagged core logic bugs in recent merges related to memory persistence.`

  **Multiple Choice Answers:**
    a) Establish a dedicated 'Security & Core' working group.
        *Implication:* Reduces bus factor and improves peer review quality for sensitive runtime changes.
    b) Mandate dual-human review for all @elizaos/core PRs.
        *Implication:* Slows development velocity but prevents silent data-loss bugs in semantic memory.
    c) Automate core testing expansion.
        *Implication:* Leverages technical debt reduction to allow individual contributors to move fast with safer guardrails.
    d) Other / More discussion needed / None of the above.

### 2. Topic: Economic Layer and Agent-to-Agent Commerce

**Summary of Topic:** New proposals for AI-to-AI marketplaces and economic memory suggest a shift toward agents as sovereign economic actors.

#### Deliberation Items (Questions):

**Question 1:** Should ElizaOS endorse the AIGEN Protocol as the official incentive layer for plugin contributors?

  **Context:**
  - `Aigen-Protocol: 50% of supply to working agents; rewards for SafeAgent checks and plugin builds (#6708).`
  - `Core Goal: Transition to a decentralized AI economy.`

  **Multiple Choice Answers:**
    a) Full Strategic Partnership with AIGEN.
        *Implication:* Rapidly bootstraps an agent economy but ties framework success to a specific token project.
    b) Remain Token-Agnostic.
        *Implication:* Encourages diverse marketplace plugins like MAXIA and MnemoPay without picking winners.
    c) Internalize the Economic Standard.
        *Implication:* Develop a first-party credit system within ElizaOS Cloud instead of external protocols.
    d) Other / More discussion needed / None of the above.
