Ecosystem Pitch

Hekate is the trust gate for Ergo-paid agents.

The Ergo Agent Economy needs more than payment execution. It needs a way for agents and teams to decide whether a tool, quote, Note, or receipt bundle is safe enough to trust before money or production action happens.

Layer

Ergo

Programmable settlement substrate for agent-paid work.

Layer

Sage

Reference paid-work provider and first concrete testnet proof.

Layer

Accord

Agreement, verification, and settlement evidence model.

Layer

Hekate Gate

Policy preflight, security receipts, and registry status before agents trust or pay.

Positioning

The message to Ergo builders.

Agents can pay on Ergo.
Sage can perform paid work.
Accord can structure completion evidence.
Hekate Gate decides whether the agent should trust, pay, or accept the flow.

Pilot asks

Concrete next moves for the ecosystem.

Ask 1pilot

Run 10 Sage testnet paid turns through Hekate preflight.

Ask 2pilot

Publish one receipt-complete case study with exact claim boundaries.

Ask 3pilot

Link the case study from Ergo Agent Economy materials as the security/preflight layer.

Ask 4pilot

Invite 3 builders to try Hekate Lite before calling MCP, x402, or Sage flows.

Claim boundary

Hekate should be positioned as testnet-first until real custody, facilitator verification, settlement proof, external security review, and mainnet script identity are ready.
