Clay Seal provides a control plane designed for AI agents, focusing on action-by-action permission checks and attested identity. The platform addresses the limitations of static permissions, where agents are typically granted broad access for an entire session, by instead verifying each action as it occurs and keeping a signed record of all activity. If an agent attempts an unauthorized action, subsequent actions can be blocked, ensuring tighter operational control and traceability.
The system is composed of three independent components: clayseal-capabilities, clayseal-identity, and clayseal-receipts. With clayseal-identity, an agent must prove its runtime environment before receiving credentials. These credentials are short-lived and tied to a unique key held by the agent, reducing the risk associated with stolen tokens. Each action an agent takes is linked to both the program executing it and the owner, with the origin of the action attested by where the code is running. This approach means that simply possessing a credential is insufficient for access—attestation is required for every action.
Clayseal-capabilities issues single-use tokens for specific actions, which are invalidated if any details change, if they are presented more than once, or if the signing key is untrusted or revoked. The clayseal-receipts component saves every action and blocked attempt as a signed, verifiable record, which can be audited independently by customers or third parties. These records are cryptographically linked, making tampering detectable.
The platform is built on open standards such as SPIFFE/SVID, Biscuit tokens, Ed25519, RFC 6962 Merkle proofs, SCITT, C2SP, tlog-tiles, OIDC, and AWS Nitro attestation. This standards-based approach allows for independent verification of receipts and audit trails. Clay Seal is positioned for organizations deploying AI agents that interact with sensitive systems, including financial operations, code deployments, customer data, internal operations, and cloud infrastructure.
clayseal-identity sits in PulseGate's Frameworks & SDKs category. It focuses on managing agent identity and capability tokens in Python applications. It is built as an open-source project for python developers building agent-based systems. clayseal-identity is open source under the MIT license. clayseal-identity is available on the web and the command line.
clayseal-identity first shipped in 2026. PulseGate's similarity index finds few close equivalents — clayseal-identity occupies a relatively distinct niche. Key capabilities include agent identity, capability tokens, and MIT license.
