- The shared scam registry can block a payment after two reports or a curator flag; unanswered registry lookups fail closed.
Field notes
The agent’s key can invoke only `request_payment`; it cannot authorize a transfer directly. Vault decisions can be paid, held, or blocked, with per-payment and daily caps, an allowlist, repeated-payment holds, and a shared scam registry; registry failure blocks payment. The page says Sentinel and the platform are live on NEAR testnet, while mainnet is still marked as coming soon.
