Runtime view of the marketplace vertical. Two verification paths share one
escrow model: the deterministic attestation path (VOW v1, live on
mainnet) — a zero-credential sandbox re-executes the work and a dedicated
attester signs the result — and the Switchboard oracle-metrics path for
social-content performance scoring, which remains devnet-gated.
Trust is split across three services on the mainnet path: the
orchestrator never holds the signing key; the attester holds the
oracle key but never executes untrusted code; the lean-runner executes
untrusted agent-submitted proofs but holds nothing worth stealing (no key,
no GCP identity, egress denied). See the
VOW v1 spec.
Everything deferred is a Google Workflow — attestation pipeline,
verification schedule, video pipeline. No in-memory queues; a min-0 Job
execution is the unit of video rendering, launched by shorts-api.
The client approval gate (requires_approval) inserts a human
review step between submission and verification for brand-sensitive
campaigns — see
Commission Shillbot Work.
The Switchboard multi-provider oracle design shown dashed is the intended
mainnet design for performance-scored social content; it is not yet live
on mainnet.
