Dock Certs for AI agents
Dock Certs lets organizations issue, manage, and verify digital credentials and decentralized identities, so a credential can be checked instantly without contacting the issuer. Connect it once through Arc0, and your agent, or Claude, ChatGPT and Cursor, can use it through one MCP endpoint, limited to what each user approved.
What agents do in Dock Certs.
Verify a submitted credential
Verify a credential or presentation a user submitted before granting them access to a program.
Look up a DID document
Retrieve a decentralized identity document to confirm a holder's public keys before trusting a claim.
Approve before revoking a credential
Route a credential deletion through approval, since revoking it removes the holder's ability to prove that claim.
15 Dock Certs actions, graded by risk.
Every Dock Certs action is tagged read, write or destructive, so one policy covers the whole app and new actions inherit the right default.

How Dock Certs connects.
Users add their Dock Certs api key on Arc0 Connect. It is encrypted in the vault, never shown to the model, and each user can rotate or revoke it at any time.
The same Dock Certs connection serves your agent over MCP and your own backend over REST and the proxy, so a user connects once. How Arc0 handles credentials →
- AUTH
- API key
- CREDENTIALS
- Per-tenant encrypted vault
- MODEL SEES
- Results only, never credentials
- AUDIT LOG
- Every call, on every plan

Dock Certs and Arc0, answered.
Can I use Dock Certs with Claude, ChatGPT or Cursor?
Yes. Connect Dock Certs to Arc0 once, then add your Arc0 MCP URL to Claude, ChatGPT, Cursor, Claude Code or any other remote-MCP client. Each assistant only gets the Dock Certs actions you allow.
How do users connect Dock Certs?
Users add their Dock Certs api key on Arc0 Connect. It is encrypted in the vault, never shown to the model, and each user can rotate or revoke it at any time.
Which Dock Certs actions can my agent take?
15 in total: 9 read, 2 write and 4 destructive, such as “create API Key”. Your policies decide which of them each agent may call.
Can I stop my agent from deleting things in Dock Certs?
Yes. Actions like “delete Tag” are graded destructive. Set destructive actions to deny, or to ask so the user approves each one, and blocked calls still show up on the audit log.
Can my own backend call Dock Certs too?
Yes. The same Dock Certs connection is available over REST and through the Arc0 proxy, so your product and your agent share one connection per user.
