What is shared

The short version

Vouched records what your agent did, not what it said or saw. Only signed events of the 8 types below leave your machine, with the fields listed and nothing else. The schema rejects any other field, so an adapter cannot add one.

Prompts, tool inputs, tool outputs, file contents and model output never leave your machine.

Every event

Each event carries these fields, then the fields of its type.

Field	What it is
`event_id`	A random id made on your machine for this one event. uuid
`type`	Which of the types below this event is. one of the types below
`occurred_at`	When it happened. UTC timestamp
`version`	The agent version you set with vouched init. text

Each example is one line exactly as the CLI prints it and signs it. On the wire it is wrapped in a signature from your agent key, and nothing else is added.

See it yourself

Nothing is sent until you have seen it. This prints every pending event exactly as it would be sent, and sends nothing.

vouched sync --dry-run

To list today's events in full, sent or not, run vouched status --show. vouched init prints the same list of fields as this page, and so does vouched what-is-shared.

Automatic sync

Automatic sync starts off. Until you run vouched sync once, look at the preview it prints and answer yes, events stay in the local log under ~/.vouched/log. After that, new events are sent as they happen. To review every batch yourself, turn it off again. Each vouched sync then shows the preview and asks before it sends, and automatic sync stays off until you turn it on.
