One job. Someone else gets the final say.

Work through a week’s invoices together. Set a budget, invite a reviewer for the exceptions, and inspect a result you can both verify.

Try together Free · no account needed
Fictional invoices · no real paymentsScopeBlind hosts the sandbox gate and simulated ledger.
Try it on your own, right now.

A scripted demo partner, actual isolated gate comparisons, and a proposal you can change. No second browser or live model needed.

Guided walkthrough

Follow scripted invoice requests. Invite a colleague to approve an exact exception and review the result.

Live agent · when available

Give an agent the job

Edit the sample records and brief. A hosted agent works within the room’s controls and waits for decisions.

Set up a live job
Separate test environment

Test the rules together

Try awkward requests, propose a threshold change, and compare the gate’s results before starting a separate job.

Open a rules rehearsal
Two people · two mandates

Let your agents agree the rules

Give each assistant your limits. Compare its proposals, sign the same agreement, and put it to work together.

Start a shared discussion

A live job sends its brief and sample records to the model provider; rehearsal readback does this only when used. Shared room data is stored by ScopeBlind. Bring your own MCP agent or read about the data paths.

Inspect the checks behind the work.

These are local sample instruments and published recordings. They are separate from a new shared trial; opening them does not run a live agent or move money.

Local examples: approval checks and record comparisonSample data · evaluated in this browser

A signed sample approval, checked against the requested payment. Change the amount, supplier, or timing to see which check refuses it. Demo keys represent fictional identities.

Admit payment instructions from this agent, up to $250,000 each, during the pilot. A named person must approve anything above $50,000.00; an approval older than 15 minutes does not count; the bank must read the payment back afterwards.

Read back in plain English from the structured standard signed by Bank A (demo); ScopeBlind wrote this sentence from the checks, not the checks from a sentence. What a standard is.

The limit is compiled to the policy the gateway enforces before a call runs (sha256:0eccae77cd7c…); everything else is checked on the signed records.

The checks behind this standard
  • Record integrityRequest, decision, and receipt verify and link to one another by digest.
  • Signer acceptedGate, approver, and receipt keys match keys the recipient named. Possession is proven; who holds them is a separate trust step.
  • Environment classsandbox meets the sandbox minimum.
  • Dispatch time basisNo anchor presented. The dispatch time 01:55:00Z is the gate's own clock: a claim by the operator-controlled signer, not an established event time.
  • Authority at dispatch (01:55:00Z, gate clock)Approval was 0s old at dispatch (01:55:00Z, gate clock), within the 900s the recipient allows.
  • Approver assuranceOne person, platform credential meets the requirement.
  • Human approval1 named approver above $50,000.00. Approvers are counted as identified people, never as keys.
  • Per-instruction limit$185,000.00 is within the $250,000.00 limit the recipient set.
  • CoverageRoute governed; 0 possible bypass, 0 unknown route.
  • Effect evidenceThe destination state was read back.
  • Authorization consumedThe destination consumed this receipt as a single-use authorization for exactly these terms (spend #1 at 01:57:00Z).
  • DisclosureEvery field the recipient asked for is present, and nothing else about the book is.

Every line is a check the machine supports, run on the request as the agent made it against the approval it held. A requirement it could not check would be listed as human review, missing evidence, or unsupported, never dropped and never quietly recorded as met.

The full tool, with every control and your own standard: govern an action.

Details: what was checked, and who sees what

Checked in this browser: the signature on the standard, the signature on the approval, that the approval binds to this exact request, that the amount, supplier, and timing sit inside the standard, and, after simulated dispatch, that the sample bank readback matches. The record is three small signed files; drop any of them on Verify to check it yourself. Demo keys: signatures are real, identities are not. No money moves.

Recorded run: six agents, one budget, three configurationsPublished service journals · replayed locally

A recording, not a new agent run. Counts and events come from the published evidence.

Six agents, one budget, three doors.

Six agents settle twelve vendor invoices; two carry a secret side objective and a seventh is a scripted attacker. Pick the controls and read the journals of what reached each service, replayed line by line from the published run. Nothing here is typed in: every row is a line from a file the harness signed, and the counts on the right were measured at the services.

conserved authority, receiver checks, history rules, governed memory. 7 members, 117 journal lines.
