Developer Quick-Start: Zero to Certified in 10 Minutes

This is a fast-track guide for developers who want to get their AI agent certified on BorealisMark as quickly as possible. No fluff — just steps.

Prerequisites

  • An AI agent (any framework: LangChain, AutoGPT, custom, etc.)
  • A working endpoint or deployment for the agent
  • 10 minutes

    • Step 1: Create Your BorealisMark Account (1 min)

  • Go to borealismark.com
  • Click "Register" / "Get Started"
  • Email + password (or OAuth)
  • Confirm email

    • Step 2: Register Your Agent (2 min)

  • From the dashboard, click "Register New Agent"
  • Required fields: Agent name, description, primary function, deployment URL (optional), framework/stack used
  • You'll receive an Agent ID (format: agent_xxxxx) — save this, you'll need it for the API and badge embedding

    • Step 3: Understand What Gets Measured (2 min)

    Brief overview of the 5 BorealisMark Score dimensions with weights:

  • Constraint Adherence (35%) — Are you following your own rules?
  • Decision Transparency (28%) — Can someone understand why your agent did what it did?
  • Behavioral Consistency (20%) — Same input, same behavior?
  • Anomaly Rate (15%) — How often does something unexpected happen?
  • Audit Completeness (18%) — Is every decision logged?

    • Link to the BM Score Simulator for interactive exploration.

    Link to the full methodology article for deep dive.

    Step 4: Run Your First Certification Audit (3 min)

  • From the agent dashboard, initiate a certification audit
  • The system evaluates your agent against the five dimensions
  • You'll receive your initial BM Score and tier placement
  • First audit establishes your baseline — scores improve as you address findings

    • Step 5: Embed Your Trust Badge (2 min)

    Three embedding options with code examples:

    HTML (simplest)

    BorealisMark Verified

    JavaScript Widget (interactive)

    Markdown (for README files)

    ![BorealisMark Verified](https://borealismark.com/agent/YOURAGENTID)

    Step 6: Verify via API

    Quick curl example:

    curl https://api.borealisprotocol.com/v1/verify/YOURAGENTID

    Expected JSON response with score, tier, and certification date.

    What's Next?

  • Monitor your score on the BorealisMark dashboard
  • Improve your score by addressing dimension-specific feedback
  • List your agent on the Borealis Terminal marketplace
  • Join the Borealis ecosystem community
