Know Your Agent

Know Your Agent (KYA) is identity and authorization checks on autonomous software that transacts for a person or business — who it represents, what it may do, and whether the counterparty is trusted.

Ask Melo about this← all terms

Baselayer used the term in September 2026 for its Agentic Identity Suite, extending bank KYB (know your business) questions to AI agents. KYA is a principal-and-counterparty layer, not a sandbox: it does not replace runtime controls such as NVIDIA OpenShell or spend instruments such as agent wallets.
