Dryx Authority Anchor architecture

The April 16, 2026 filings

The Authority Anchor architecture for AI agents, filed simultaneously with the USPTO — sole inventor Matthew Jackson, assigned to Dryx AI, Inc. by written instrument. Later filings extend this architecture and are not enumerated here.

01

Multi-party consensus

Three independent roles (Operator, Agent, Authority Anchor) reaching consensus before any agent action with security impact. The AI Security Triad.

02

Policy directive injection

Marker-delimited security context written into AI agent instruction surfaces. Agents become security-aware without runtime intervention.

03

Adversarial request resistance

Hardened agent posture against prompt-injected escalation attempts. Cites policy under pressure, refuses harmful asks even when phrased innocuously.

04

Per-instance behavioral baseline

Anomaly detection across temporal and structural dimensions, calibrated per-workspace rather than against a generic baseline.

05

Orphaned configuration detection

Ghost Agent — discovers AI agent configurations left behind by uninstalled tools. The most-installed agents are the ones nobody remembers installing.

06

Pre-deployment blast radius

Skill Shield — projects the security impact of an MCP server, skill, or extension onto the user's specific workspace before installation.

07

Multi-layer enforcement

Defense layered across the agent-MCP boundary. A pre-action hook directs the agent to consult an independent security analysis system, and that verdict influences the enforcement decision. Verdicts survive compromise of the agent's process.
