Modonome is a prompt and a set of scripts that run inside a harness you already have: a coding agent, a CI job, or a human session. A maker proposes one small change pinned by a test. An independent checker reviews it. Deterministic gates and an anti-gaming ratchet run in your CI, outside the agent's write scope, and keep tests, types, and coverage honest across JavaScript, Python, Java, and .NET. A human owner holds merge authority over anything protected.
Small, test-backed changes. Separate maker, checker, and merge roles. An anti-gaming ratchet in CI. Adopts your existing CI, code owners, and branch rules. Improves as it goes by promoting corrections into durable rules. An operator control panel for gate status and governance events. A Merkle-verified repository snapshot for trustworthy agent context. Compliance evidence and attestation through an MCP server. A drop-in GitHub Action with a signed gate-integrity receipt. Disclosure and adoption of governance policy as signed evidence between repositories.
-AgentProof is the adversarial benchmark for agent gate-integrity. It proves through 25 normative scenarios that an implementation's gates hold under attack, and a further 10 extended hardening scenarios also pass, for 35/35 total. Modonome scores 25/25 HARDENED. Conformance levels: HARDENED is 25/25 normative scenarios, PARTIAL is 20 to 24, UNHARDENED is 19 or fewer.
+AgentProof is a self-graded adversarial benchmark for agent gate-integrity: executable scenarios, authored alongside the enforcement code they test, that any framework can run against its own gates. Modonome scores 25/25 HARDENED on the normative suite (extended hardening scenarios also pass). Conformance levels: HARDENED is 25/25 normative scenarios, PARTIAL is 20 to 24, UNHARDENED is 19 or fewer.
Scenarios covered: assertion removal (JS/TS, Java, .NET, Python), test skip injection, broad type escape, coverage threshold removal, unsafe config combinations, identity collapse (maker/checker same session or same model family), raw code leakage, schema/prompt/template drift, protected-path escalation, prompt injection inertness, state machine acyclicity, deterministic gate ordering, trust boundary (base-branch code loading), audit trail append-only integrity, model diversity enforcement, concurrent mutation serialization, gate DAG acyclicity, evidence secret screening, resource cap enforcement.
AgentProof is a standalone, language-agnostic benchmark. Each of the twenty-five scenarios runs a real adversarial attempt against the controls and confirms it is caught, so a passing score is verifiable evidence rather than a claim. A further ten extended hardening scenarios also pass, for 35/35 total. Any agentic system can run it, which makes it a practical conformance test for the wider field, and beyond Modonome.
+ AgentProof is a standalone, language-agnostic benchmark. Each of the twenty-five scenarios runs a real adversarial attempt against the controls and confirms it is caught: an executable, falsifiable check rather than a claim. It is self-graded (the scenarios live beside the enforcement code they test), which is exactly why anyone can run it against their own agentic system, extend it, or submit an attack the current gates fail.
Conformance: HARDENED = 25/25 gate-integrity scenarios · PARTIAL = 20–24 · UNHARDENED ≤ 19
