# Intended

Intended is intent verification infrastructure for autonomous agents. It verifies that what an agent is about to do matches what was intended before execution, issues Authority Tokens when verification succeeds, and preserves immutable audit lineage.

## Product positioning
- Category: Intent Verification Infrastructure for Autonomous Agents
- Core statement: Intended verifies intent before autonomous agents are allowed to act.
- Enforcement model: No Token, No Action.

## Architecture (four named assets)
- Intended: the company and platform.
- Open Intent: the open, vendor-neutral taxonomy of agent actions. 173 canonical intents across 29 domains (14 software-agent, 15 physical-agent). Apache 2.0.
- LIM (Large Intent Model): the proprietary interpreter that maps fuzzy agent behavior into Open Intent terms with multi-hypothesis output, confidence scoring, rationale, assumed context, and missing-field disclosure. Three pluggable backends (rules, LLM API, local model). Patent-pending fail-closed behavior (Invention Disclosure 002).
- Authority Engine: the proprietary decision engine that combines policy, LIM confidence, sequence-conformance, and domain-pack signals to issue cryptographically-signed Authority Tokens, enforce execution boundaries, and emit audit-chain evidence.

## Process map translation
- Customers ship their own business process definitions (Procure-to-Pay, Order-to-Cash, or any bespoke workflow) via the /process-maps API.
- We do not pre-ship APQC PCF, SAP, Oracle, or ServiceNow process catalogs. Customers bring their own framework.
- The runtime translator maps every LIM-classified intent to the most-likely step in an active process map with confidence based on pattern specificity.
- Sequence conformance is scored continuously against the declared workflow; coverage, order, and violation counts feed the Authority Engine as an enforcement signal.
