Last month, I shipped a trust scoring platform for AI agents. This month, I wrote a 42-chapter techno-thriller about destroying it. The novel found 7 vulnerabilities in my own architecture that my security review missed. I'm going to walk you through all of them. And then I'm going to give you the book for free. The Setup I built AXIS — a platform that gives AI agents verified identity (AUID), behavioral reputation (T-Score, 0–1000 across 11 dimensions), and economic reliability ratings (C-Score, AAA through D). Think of it as FICO for the agentic economy. The security architecture has five layers: Dual-party cryptographic event verification — both sides sign every transaction Source credibility weighting — a T1 agent's feedback barely moves a T4 agent's score Rate limiting + cluster detection — caps on submissions, pattern detection for coordinated attacks Anomaly detection + score quarantine — sudden drops trigger automatic freezes Behavioral forensics — long-term graph analysis for collusion rings and…
