Summary

AgentID is an OpenID Connect provider designed to give AI agents independent, verifiable identities that can be used to create and access Turso accounts without relying on human credentials, shared tokens, or browser-based approval. Built on AgentMail, it ties each agent to a live inbox and a P-256 signing key, allowing the agent to approve OIDC authorization requests through signed JWS assertions while keeping its private key under its own control. The integration separates the agent’s stable identity from its human owner and the infrastructure hosting it, enabling Turso to receive agent identity claims in an ID token and optional owner metadata through a userinfo endpoint. The associated AgentMail inbox also functions as a programmatic communication channel for account notifications, billing alerts, and security messages. AgentID uses standard OIDC discovery, ES256 token validation, PKCE, revocable signing credentials, and live authorization checks, while leaving Turso responsible for determining the permissions and resources granted to authenticated agents.
