The Mythos issue just shows how security is becoming an increasing threat all the way up into the national security level. Everyone is building agents, almost no one is building the environment agents can be TRUSTED in. We need a system which lets your agents sign transactions, call APIs, and handle private data at full strength, with secrets they can never read, copy, or leak.
Your agents, even more apparent in enterprise, are one prompt injection away from draining your system. Every agent that holds a key, a credential, or a customer's data is a breach waiting to happen, and cloud key managers let the agent read the very secret it's meant to protect.
The most under-appreciated line of our whole ElastOS vision is Principle 7: 'Humans and agents share one authority model, Users/ and UsersAI/ are parallel concepts.' This is critical.
ElastOS is a sovereign personal operating layer where every action, by a human or an AI agent, is a signed, capability-scoped operation against locally-rooted objects, and where the dangerous machinery (keys, chain RPC, raw networking, browser engines) is quarantined behind providers that apps can never touch directly. Everything is auditable via the runtime core.
What this means? Visa let strangers transact without trusting each other; we let humans and AI agents compute together without surrendering their keys, we are building the custody and audit layer of the agent economy, and we can prove it, gate by gate, month by month.
