# NS-442 · BYO-agent production qualification

## Outcome

Qualify the hosted BYO-agent product through exact-release interoperability, security, operations and testnet evidence while retaining fail-closed mainnet gates.

## Requirements

* Test at least two independent MCP clients without giving NIGHTSHIFT model-provider credentials.
* Complete external security review, abuse/load testing, OAuth consent/revocation drills and account-data privacy review.
* Prove metrics, SLO incidents, alert delivery, backup/restore and kill-switch drills.
* Bind production evidence to exact release, OAuth configuration and public origin with bounded expiry.
* Complete paper and Hyperliquid testnet proposal/approval/automation/reconciliation receipts.
* Publish customer and operator documentation including agent-compromise response.
* Keep mainnet unavailable until existing eligibility, signer, reconciliation, dead-man, alerting, legal and canary gates are independently current.

## Release boundary

Qualification can make hosted read/proposal and reviewed testnet capabilities production ready. It does not itself authorize a mainnet order or change disabled execution defaults.

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the current page URL with the `ask` query parameter, and the optional `goal` query parameter:

```
GET https://nytshift.gitbook.io/nytshift-docs/implementation-ledger/ns-442-agent-production-qualification.md?ask=<question>&goal=<endgoal>
```

`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is optional and describes the broader end goal you are ultimately trying to accomplish on behalf of the user. GitBook uses it to tailor the answer towards what is most useful for that goal.

The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.

Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
