APP / EVIDENCE INTERFACES

Integrations & Evidence Sources

Examine autonomous activity across external systems while preserving where each observation originated.

Sockets are evidence interfaces and adapters: they translate observations from a controlled boundary into APP-compatible evidence. The categories below describe architectural interfaces, not a catalogue of verified operational connectors. Source access, adapter implementation and verification conditions must be established for each deployment.

Socket Contract

#socket-contract

Each socket should expose source, observation type, APP mapping, evidence produced, verification capability and implementation-specific availability.

Agent Runtimes

#agent-runtimes

Inside-Out interfaces can represent runtime identity, principal context, delegation, intent and tool activity. Independently verify each source's trust and observation scope.

Payment Infrastructure

#payment-infrastructure

Payment gateways and provider interfaces can supply request, response and execution observations. Instruction, execution and settlement remain independent evidence claims.

Digital Assets

#digital-assets

Wallet, custody and ledger boundaries can supply signing, submission, execution and finality evidence. A submitted transaction is not automatically a final financial outcome.

API / MCP

#api-mcp

API gateways, OpenAPI-described services, MCP tool boundaries and A2A exchanges expose different observation contexts. An interface specification alone is not proof of a working APP adapter.

Cloud Infrastructure

#cloud-infrastructure

Service boundaries, egress and execution providers can supply independently scoped operational evidence without assuming full ecosystem visibility.

Observability

#observability

OpenTelemetry traces and other telemetry can provide source observations and correlation context. Shared timing or trace metadata does not automatically establish authority or causality.

Local Operation

#local-operation

A socket enriches the evidence plane; it is not a requirement that every participant integrate with APP before the local boundary can represent useful state.
