Public by design
Lookup returns only fields approved for publication. Private claims, policy inputs and commercial data remain outside the public response.
OATI public registry
Verify what an agent publishes.
Look up a public OATI identifier to inspect its lifecycle status, issuer, assurance level and published cryptographic proof result.
01
Resolve
Find the exact public record.
02
Inspect
Read status and assurance.
03
Verify
Check the published proof state.
Read the result correctly
Verification is a chain, not a green badge.
The lookup resolves public registry information. A complete trust decision also depends on the authority, context and evidence for a particular action.
Current verification state
The result distinguishes record lifecycle status from cryptographic proof status, so “found” is never treated as “trusted” by default.
A starting point, not the decision
Relying parties still evaluate Mandate scope, policy, freshness, revocation and Receipt evidence for the action in front of them.
For developers
Build resolution into your trust flow.
Use the versioned lookup contract for exact identifier resolution, cache-aware responses and machine-readable proof status.
