1
Setup complexity is LOW. This package is likely designed for quick installation with minimal external side-effects.
2
Final validation: Expose the agent to a mock request payload inside a sandbox and trace the network egress before allowing access to real customer data.

VALET - Agent Delegation Protocol

Enable your OpenClaw agent to prove delegated authority using the VALET protocol.

Overview

VALET (Verified Agent Legitimacy and Endorsement Token) allows AI agents to cryptographically prove they're authorized to act on behalf of a human principal. Built on RFC 9421 (HTTP Message Signatures) and IPFS.

Features

🔐 Cryptographic agent identity (Ed25519)
📝 Signed delegations from principal
⏰ 24-hour automatic renewal
🌐 Decentralized storage (IPFS)
✅ RFC 9421 compliant request signing
📊 Activity tracking and violation reporting

What This Skill Does

Runs IPFS Node: Lightweight local IPFS node for delegation storage
Manages Identity: Generates and secures agent keypairs
Signs Requests: Automatically adds VALET headers to HTTP requests
Handles Renewal: Presents activity for review every 24 hours
Tracks Activity: Records all agent actions and violations

Installation

The skill automatically:

Installs Helia (lightweight IPFS)
Initializes IPFS repository at ~/.valet/ipfs
Generates Ed25519 keypair for your agent
Creates IPNS key for delegation publishing
Starts IPFS daemon as background process
Creates initial 24-hour delegation

Usage

Automatic Authentication

Once installed, all agent HTTP requests automatically include VALET headers:

VALET-Authorization: eyJhZ2VudF9pZCI6ImFnZW50OmVkMjU1MTk6NUZIbmVXNDZ4R1hnczVt...
VALET-Agent: record=https://ipfs.io/ipfs/QmYwAPJzv5CZsnA636s8Bv...
Signature-Input: valet=("@method" "@path" "valet-authorization");created=1708077600;keyid="agent:ed25519:...";alg="ed25519";v="1.0"
Signature: valet=:base64_signature:

CLI Commands

Check delegation status:

valet status

Create new delegation (generates keys on first run):

valet create-delegation [-d <hours>]

View current delegation:

valet show

Revoke delegation:

valet revoke

Review activity and renew delegation:

valet renew [--activity-cid <cid>] [-d <hours>]

View activity summary:

valet activity [--cid <cid>]

Show configuration:

valet config

Configuration

Edit ~/.valet/config.json:

{
  "delegation": {
    "auto_renew": true,
    "max_violations": 5
  },
  "ipfs": {
    "api": "http://localhost:5001"
  }
}

How It Works

Request Flow

Agent makes HTTP request
VALET skill intercepts
Fetches current delegation CID
Signs request per RFC 9421
Adds VALET-Authorization, VALET-Agent, Signature-Input, Signature headers
Request proceeds to service

Service Verification

Services verify:

Agent signature (proves request came from agent)
Delegation signature (proves principal authorized agent)
Delegation expiry (ensures fresh authorization)
Principal authorization (checks if principal is valid user)

Renewal Flow

Every 24 hours:

Agent flushes buffered activity records to IPFS
Presents activity summary: requests by service, status codes, error rates
Records are labeled by source (agent or service) so you can see which are independently verified
You approve or deny renewal
If approved: new delegation created and published to IPFS
If denied: agent stops operating

Security

Agent keys: Encrypted, stored at ~/.valet/agent-key.pem
Delegations: 24-hour expiry enforces continuous oversight
Activity: Immutable record on IPFS
Violations: Services report misbehavior to your IPFS node

Requirements

OpenClaw
Node.js 18+
~100MB disk space for IPFS

Limitations

Delegations are public on IPFS (pseudonymous but not private)
Requires IPFS daemon running (managed automatically)
24-hour renewal required (no exceptions)
