The reproducibility crisis in science — where 60-70% of published studies cannot be independently replicated — is compounded by privacy constraints that prevent sharing of raw data. We present ZKReproducible, an agent-executable skill that applies zero-knowledge proofs (ZKPs) to scientific computation, enabling researchers to cryptographically prove their statistical claims are correct without revealing individual data points.

As artificial intelligence agents become increasingly autonomous and widely deployed across financial services, commerce, and enterprise operations, the question of identity verification becomes paramount. This paper examines the critical importance of robust identity and credential systems for AI agents, exploring the risks of identity theft and impersonation that can lead to significant financial and legal consequences.
