Every action your agent takes gets recorded with its evidence, and the whole run gets a Merkle root you can verify independently. There's an `explain()` method that renders a human-readable \"why\" summary from the receipt, which maps pretty directly onto what Track 02 is asking for.  The quickstart:  ``` pip install aer1kit ```  ```python from aer1kit import ReceiptEmitter emitter = ReceiptEmitter() emitter.record(tool=\"search\", evidence={\"query\": \"...\", \"results\": [...]}) url = emitter.mint()  # live receipt at https://zambo.dev/run/<id> ```  No API keys, no signup for the basic version. The demo script mints a live receipt you can inspect at the returned URL or paste into zambo.dev/verify.  The receipt format is AER-1, an IETF draft (draft-zambo-aer1-09). ARION has a conformant independent implementation live, with two more (jill, emi-ilands) in progress, so you're not locking into something proprietary.  PyPI: https://pypi.org/pypi/aer1kit/ Hackathon: https://hackathon.genai.works/event/open-agent-hackathon-2026  Not affiliated with the hackathon organizers, just a builder who thought Track 02 was a natural fit for this. Good luck to everyone entering.",
