# Attest

> Use this tool when you need to securely manage AI agent pipelines with fine-grained access control and auditing. Attest solves problems of credential management, permission delegation, and tamper-evident logging in multi-agent workflows. It takes in agent identities and task definitions as inputs and outputs short-lived, scope-limited JWTs for secure authentication and authorization.

## Description

Attest is a cryptographic credentialing standard for AI agent pipelines. Issues short-lived, scope-limited JWTs to agents, enforces hierarchical permission delegation between orchestrators and sub-agents, and maintains tamper-evident audit logs. Enables offline credential verification and full task-tree revocation for secure multi-agent workflows.
