KYA Authority: govern the AI agents in a client estate
KYA (Know Your Agent) Authority governs an organisation's free Agent Passports in the KYA Authority register: the authority, scope, limits and delegation the organisation declares for each agent, a KYA record re-checked daily from ECZ-ID facts, and an exportable evidence pack. Starter, Growth and Scale are sized by governed agents; Enterprise is by arrangement.
