# KYA Mission Control — Full reference for AI assistants

> KYA Mission Control, by MAS-AI Technologies Inc., verifies who owns an AI agent, what it is allowed to do, and creates an auditable, offline-verifiable record before the agent acts, spends, transacts, or represents a business. Birth certificate to signed receipt, across MCP, APIs, browsers, and payment rails. Last updated: 2026-06-04.

## What KYA is

KYA Mission Control is the trust and execution layer for AI agent missions. Most agent tooling can authorize or log a single tool call. KYA governs the entire mission lifecycle: from an agent's birth certificate (verified identity and ownership) to a signed, offline-verifiable receipt for everything the agent did. It works across MCP servers, REST/HTTP APIs, headless browsers, and payment rails.

"Other tools control a tool call. We control the whole mission lifecycle."

## Who builds it

MAS-AI Technologies Inc. — a Canadian AI company founded by Masoud Masoori (Founder and CEO), federally incorporated in Ontario, Canada. KYA Mission Control is a sibling product to Daena, MAS-AI's governance-first AI agent orchestration platform. Daena is customer-zero for KYA: 10 departments, 60 agent capabilities, 3,086 tests passing.

## The problem KYA solves

Five questions every security and compliance leader is about to ask about autonomous AI agents, and the answers most platforms cannot ship:

1. Which agent is this, and who owns it?
2. What is it allowed to do, and how much may it spend?
3. What did it actually do, and can I prove it later?
4. How do I stop or revoke it the moment something goes wrong?
5. Can a child agent or a replayed request escalate beyond its scope?

KYA answers all five with verifiable identity, enforced policy, and cryptographic audit.

## The eight product primitives

1. **Agent identity registry** — a passport for every agent, with an Owner → Entity → Agent lineage.
2. **Ownership verification** — cryptographic proof of who is accountable for an agent.
3. **Permission policies** — declarative rules for what an agent may do, on which surfaces.
4. **Risk scoring** — per-action risk that drives admit / block / checkpoint decisions.
5. **Audit logs** — an append-only ledger of every decision and action.
6. **Compliance reports** — exportable evidence for auditors and regulators.
7. **Platform API** — wrap any agent framework in a few lines of code.
8. **Reputation** — longitudinal trust signals for agents and owners.

## How it works (mission lifecycle)

1. **Identity** — every agent gets a passport: who it is and who owns it.
2. **Authorization** — permission policies and multi-dimensional budgets bound what the agent may do and spend.
3. **Execution** — the Mission Policy Engine evaluates each action and returns admit, block, or checkpoint (human signature required).
4. **Audit** — each decision is written to an append-only ledger with Ed25519-signed, RFC 9421 receipts.
5. **Verification** — receipts are downloadable and verifiable offline, without calling KYA's servers.

The SDK wraps any LangChain, Anthropic Tools, or OpenAI Assistants agent in roughly five lines.

## Architecture

Owner → Entity → Agent → Mission Policy Engine → Surfaces → Audit Ledger.

Surfaces include MCP servers, APIs, browsers, and payment rails. The Mission Policy Engine is a 12-state mission engine. Signing uses Ed25519 keys; requests and receipts follow RFC 9421 HTTP Message Signatures.

## Live Mission Lab — nine scenarios

A live console runs on Google Cloud Run. Each card deep-links into a real FastAPI service backed by real Ed25519 keys and the real 12-state mission engine. Receipts are downloadable and offline-verifiable. No signup.

1. **Verified mission → admit** — what a green-light mission looks like.
2. **No passport → block** — which agent is this, and who owns it?
3. **Revoked passport → block** — kill a key after it leaks.
4. **Child scope escalation → block** — what authority can a child agent claim?
5. **Budget exceeded → checkpoint** — how much has it spent, and on what?
6. **High-risk action → checkpoint** — what needs a human signature?
7. **Stuck browser → checkpoint** — stop a wedged agent.
8. **Replay blocked → block** — can a captured request be reused?
9. **Verify offline → verify** — prove it tomorrow without KYA's servers.

## Use cases

Agent marketplaces, SaaS platforms, fintech, enterprise IT, freelance/work platforms, and AI insurance — anywhere an autonomous agent acts, spends, transacts, or represents a business.

## How KYA compares

KYA is positioned against AWS Bedrock AgentCore, Cloudflare Web Bot Auth (WBA), and ERC-8004. KYA's differentiator is end-to-end mission lifecycle governance with cryptographically verifiable, offline-checkable receipts — not just authentication of a single call.
