Portable manifest — cross-provider conversation context

A **portable manifest** is a JSON bundle that lets an AI conversation move across providers (Claude → ChatGPT → Gemini). Contains the system prompt, memory snapshot, and receipt digest — enough context for any receiver model to continue the work.

Three components

System prompt (the seed). Memory snapshot (the working context). Receipt digest (the recent activity).

Generation

/v1/agents/[did]/portable assembles the manifest from the agent's receipt feed. The summarisation step (working assumptions, key decisions) is done by a small LLM pass.

Usage

Paste into a new ChatGPT / Claude / Gemini conversation. The receiver model picks up the work without re-briefing.

Signature

The manifest is signed by the source agent so the receiver can verify it wasn't tampered with.
