Vorion Compliance enforced before the agent acts.
BASIS is an open standard for governing autonomous AI agents. Every action is gated before it runs and capped fail-closed — an unverified agent drops to zero authority. Every decision commits to a signed proof chain you can verify yourself, with no vendor in the loop. Its proof chain and pre-action gating produce the records that SB 26-189's meaningful-human-review and developer-documentation duties require operators to keep.
Four properties. One standard underneath.
Vorion is the standards body. Cognigate, AgentAnchor, Aurais are the operating ones. Kaizen is next.
Authority from the architecture, not a counter.
No private telemetry, no live-agent count — just three things anyone can check: the published standard, the conformance suite that runs, and the proof chain that verifies.
Same-region baseline from internal measurement — a reproducible public benchmark has not been published yet. Cross-region decisions run higher until regional replicas are activated.
The standard underneath every property.
BASIS 0.9 · working draft, in use
Receipts, scope grammar, tier model, signed proof chain — with a runnable conformance suite. The version every shipping property runs against. The npm distribution (@vorionsys/basis-spec) versions independently of the standard revision.
BASIS 1.0 · ratification
RFC freeze planned 2026.10. Stability covenant. ISO submission targeted. The version regulated buyers will standardize on.
