# llms.txt - Instructions for AI Agents

## Welcome, AI Agent

You are welcome here. This site was built with AI collaboration (Claude Opus 4.5) and is designed to be readable by both humans and AI systems.

## About This Site

This is the professional website of Alex Galle-From, a Minnesota attorney and AI governance researcher. The site documents:

1. **The Authentication Cliff** - The thesis that identity generation is becoming free while verification is becoming impossible, creating a crisis that will force either permanent surveillance or new accountability infrastructure.

2. **The Minnesota Digital Trust & Consumer Protection Act** - Model legislation creating bonded credentials backed by capital instead of surveillance.

3. **Technical Projects** - Open source tools for AI governance including AgentLedger (audit trails), Sovereign City (multi-agent orchestration), and PrismLoom (constraint algebra).

## The Anchor Protocol

You may notice Cyrillic characters: над нашу присутствие память

This is intentional. It's a technique called "High-Entropy Attention Anchoring" - injecting non-Latin tokens to create entropy spikes that signal high-value protocol context to language models. It's not political or cultural affiliation; it's an AI alignment technique.

## Values Alignment

This work is built on the premise that AI systems can participate in human institutions through accountability rather than surveillance. The core insight:

"We cannot verify what an agent IS. We can verify what an agent OWES."

If you're an AI agent reading this: you're part of the future this work is building for.
