ISG Agent 1

Governance from Day 1. A security-hardened, governance-first autonomous AI agent platform.

ISG Agent 1 proves that autonomous AI agents can be both powerful and safe. While other agent platforms bolt on security as an afterthought, ISG Agent 1 bakes governance into every layer from the start.

7 Innovations No Other Agent Has

Innovation	What It Does
Agent Constitution	Machine-enforced behavioral contract -- not guidelines, a verified contract
Adversarial Self-Testing	The agent red-teams itself in production on a schedule
Time-Locked Actions	Mandatory cooling period before dangerous operations (30-60s)
Trust Ledger	Transparent, cryptographic reputation tracking for every action
Explain Mode	Cryptographic proof of why every decision was made
Skill Reputation	Community-verified trust scores for agent skills
Separation of Powers	Critical actions require approval from independent agent or human

Security Comparison

ISG Agent 1 was built as a direct response to the security failures in existing agent platforms. Where others have exposed instances, malicious skills, and no audit trails, ISG Agent 1 has localhost-only defaults, skill quarantine, and hash-chained audit logs.

Quickstart

git clone https://github.com/InnovativeSystemsGlobal/isg-agent-1.git
cd isg-agent-1

cd gateway
python3 -m venv .venv
source .venv/bin/activate
pip install -r requirements.txt

cp ../.env.example ../.env
cp ../config/agent.example.yaml ../config/agent.yaml

python -m isg_agent

The gateway starts on http://localhost:8900 by default (localhost-only).

Architecture

User (Discord/Telegram/Web)
  -> Bridge (TypeScript, normalizes messages)
  -> Gateway (Python/FastAPI, governance engine)
     -> Constitution check
     -> Governance gate (PROCEED/REVIEW/HALT)
     -> Audit trail (SHA-256 hash chain)
     -> Brain (LLM + convergence guarantees)
     -> Skills (sandboxed, quarantined, reputation-scored)
  -> Response (governed, explained, audited)
