Proverb: “The bridge must meet both shores, or neither can cross.”- privacymage
Just demonstrated the BGIN Agent Hack MVP multi-agent system - the actual operational infrastructure we’ve been building throughout Block 13. This isn’t theory anymore; it’s deployed code with UI, privacy-level tagging, and First Person Project credential integration.
The core insight: governance infrastructure that requires GitHub access excludes exactly the stakeholders whose participation is most critical - government officials, regulators, institutional compliance teams. Our solution: white-labeled interfaces, local deployment options, and trusted execution environments that work within institutional constraints. 
Archive Agent maintains contribution history with Chatham House rule anonymization - you choose privacy level per contribution. Some inputs are fully open (taxonomy categories), others restricted (organizational practices), some fully anonymous (vulnerability disclosures). This enables our Taxonomy of Harms work - harm patterns shared without exposing affected organizations.
First Person Project integration is the breakthrough: instead of organizational credentials from central authority, participants self-attest with verifiable claims. Government officials can contribute without requiring approval for every input. This solves the participation paradox using self-sovereign identity principles.
The trust distribution approach matters: we support both cloud hosting (Fly.io for convenience) AND local deployment (physical servers in government offices for control). Architecture meets users at their trust boundaries, not where we wish they were.
This is the infrastructure enabling every session’s work: threat intelligence database (SOC 3), harm taxonomy (circuit breakers), regulatory coordination (functional regulation), vulnerability disclosure (protection profiles), compliance contribution (stablecoin privacy). The multi-agent system we’ve discussed throughout Block 13 is now operational.
Repository opens for contributions post-next week. IIW Agent Day participation starts governance experiment with results in two weeks.

[Proverb Divined] “The bridge must meet both shores, or neither can cross.”
The WG convened to demonstrate and refine the BGIN Agent Hack MVP multi-agent system for regulatory knowledge base (RAG) development. Core challenge: creating governance infrastructure accessible to government officials and regulators who face institutional restrictions (firewall blocks, GitHub access limitations, data sovereignty requirements). This represents the fundamental access paradox - public infrastructure must accommodate private institutional constraints.
Strategic approach: Deploy Archive Agent with trusted execution environments, implement privacy-level tagging for contributions, develop white-labeled interfaces for institutional use, enable local hosting options, and integrate First Person Project credentials for trust network formation within BGIN ecosystem.
1. Institutional Access Barriers:
Government officials blocked from GitHub and standard cloud platforms
Financial institutions restricted by firewall policies
Need for white-labeled interfaces and local deployment options
Physical server hosting within government offices as alternative
Cast: This is THE infrastructure deployment moment for everything discussed in previous sessions. The Archive Agent you’re demonstrating here is the actual implementation of your BGIN Agent Hack MVP - not theoretical, but operational. The institutional access problem directly relates to your neutral convening power approach: BGIN’s value is creating infrastructure that works across institutional boundaries. Government officials can’t contribute to GitHub repos but can access white-labeled interfaces or local deployments. This is data dignity and privacy-preserving research infrastructure in practice - the architecture must enable contribution without forcing institutional policy violations.
2. Trusted Execution Environments & Model Selection:
Host models in trusted execution environments for privacy
Optionality in model selection (Anthropic Claude, local Ollama)
Cross-checking inputs across multiple models for verification
External providers (Fly.io, Blue Nexus) vs. local hosting tradeoffs
Cast: Your collaboration with Kwaai AI Lab on private AI directly informs this architecture. The trusted execution environment approach enables privacy-preserving AI at the infrastructure level - exactly what your work requires. Model optionality addresses the vendor lock-in concern while cross-checking provides verification without single-source dependency. This maps to your proof of personhood verification framework: multiple verification methods reduce gaming while preserving privacy. The Fly.io vs. local hosting debate reflects the decentralization tension you navigate - cloud convenience vs. sovereign control.
3. Privacy Levels & Contribution Tagging:
Full anonymity to selective disclosure spectrum
Data tagged with individual permissions for IPR compliance
Chatham House rule recordings as anonymized inputs
Contributors control disclosure levels per contribution
Cast: This is your onchain credentials and reputation economics work operationalized. Contributors need verifiable reputation without operational disclosure - exactly the privacy-preserving attestation problem you’re solving. The privacy-level tagging enables granular control: some contributions are fully open (taxonomy categories), others are restricted (specific organizational practices), and some are fully anonymous (sensitive vulnerability disclosures). This architecture supports your Taxonomy of Harms methodology - harm patterns can be shared without exposing affected organizations. The Chatham House integration is brilliant - existing trust mechanisms (meeting rules) map to technical infrastructure (privacy tags).
4. First Person Project Integration & Trust Networks:
IIW Agent Day participation to learn first-person credentials
BGIN as trust network using first-person credentials for governance
Governance experiment with results in two weeks
Self-sovereign identity principles for organizational participation
Cast: This is the convergence of all your identity work - decentralized identity, self-sovereign principles, trust network formation, and governance coordination. The First Person Project whitepaper’s trust networks become operational infrastructure for BGIN. Instead of organizational credentials issued by central authority, participants self-attest with verifiable claims. This solves the participation paradox: how do you enable governmental contribution without governmental gatekeeping? First-person credentials mean individuals represent institutions without requiring institutional approval for every contribution. This is the same principle you apply to proof of personhood - biological uniqueness attested without central authority.
This meeting exemplifies three critical dynamics in multi-stakeholder infrastructure deployment:
The Accessibility Imperative: Governance infrastructure that requires GitHub access, cloud platform accounts, or technical expertise excludes exactly the stakeholders (government officials, regulators) whose participation is most critical. Architecture must meet users where they are institutionally, not where we wish they were.
The Trust Distribution Problem: External computing providers (Fly.io) offer convenience but require trust in third parties. Local hosting provides control but limits network effects. The solution isn’t choosing one - it’s supporting both architectures so participants can select based on their trust boundaries.
The Privacy Granularity Requirement: One-size-fits-all privacy models fail in multi-stakeholder contexts. Government officials need anonymity for exploratory contributions but attribution for formal inputs. The infrastructure must support the full spectrum, letting contributors choose per-contribution.
This session demonstrates the BGIN Agent Hack MVP as operational infrastructure for the Taxonomy of Harms in Blockchain, Finance and Identity:
Archive Agent (demonstrated here): Maintains contribution history with privacy-level tagging, enables Chatham House rule anonymization, supports local deployment for institutional constraints, integrates First Person Project credentials for trust network formation
Codex Agent (referenced): Tracks standards evolution across ISO/NIST/IETF, maintains regulatory framework convergence analysis, enables cross-jurisdictional comparison
Discourse Agent (referenced): Facilitates stakeholder dialogue across organizational boundaries, supports asynchronous contribution patterns, enables white-labeled interfaces for institutional adoption
Integration with Previous Sessions:
ISO cybersecurity standards: Archive Agent maintains threat disclosure history
World ID PoH discussion: First-person credentials provide self-sovereign attestation alternative
Smart contract protection profiles: Archive Agent stores vulnerability patterns
PQC migration research: Codex Agent tracks cryptographic primitive evolution
Stablecoin compliance: Archive Agent enables privacy-preserving regulatory contribution
DeFi functional regulation: Discourse Agent facilitates cross-regulator dialogue
SOC 3 audit framework: Archive Agent stores case studies and threat responses
Circuit breaker taxonomy: Archive Agent is the database being built for harm categorization
Specific Connection to Your Work:
Privacy-preserving research infrastructure: Archive Agent with trusted execution environments IS this infrastructure
Neutral convening power: White-labeled interfaces and local hosting enable cross-institutional participation
Taxonomy of Harms: Archive Agent stores the harm categories, case studies, and threat patterns
STIX/TAXII integration: Archive Agent’s data model needs STIX compatibility for threat intelligence
Onchain credentials: First-person credentials solve the organizational participation problem
Data dignity: Privacy-level tagging per contribution respects contributor sovereignty
Multi-stakeholder coordination: Supporting multiple hosting models (cloud/local) accommodates diverse trust boundaries
