Practical architecture for teams that need to approve delegated authority, enforce it after the user leaves, prevent reuse, and retain verifiable evidence.
A concrete model for approving authority once, enforcing it later, and proving what happened without letting the agent or authorization service execute the action.
A mandate is useful only when it turns intent into fields a runtime can compare exactly. This guide defines the minimum boundaries and the unsafe shortcuts.
Passkeys can bind a person to an exact mandate on a trusted surface. They do not identify the agent or replace policy enforcement, execution controls, or payment rules.
A policy match is not a one-use guarantee. Safe asynchronous execution needs a state machine that remains correct under retries, races, timeouts, and downstream failure.
A list of logs is not portable proof. Useful authorization evidence preserves the exact lifecycle, protects it from undetected change, and can be verified independently.
Authorization decides whether a proposed action is inside approved bounds. Payment and action systems still execute it. Keeping that boundary explicit reduces coupling and false security assumptions.
Show us the action, approval boundary, and execution system. We will help you map the authorization lifecycle.
