Encrypted autonomous agent verification in multi-tiered distributed systems across global or cloud networks

Systems and methods disclosed herein perform privacy-preserving evaluations of artificial intelligence (AI) agents. A first AI agent associated with a first entity obtains a machine-readable data structure defining one or more operative boundaries for a second AI agent associated with a second entity. The system generates a unique fixed reference value representing the machine-readable data structure by applying a first transformation operation set, and transmits the unique fixed reference value to a multi-agent storage to store the value. The system receives, via the multi-agent storage, a verification artifact from the second AI agent that indicates an observed value based on internal operational data of the second AI agent corresponding to the operative boundaries. The first AI agent determines a verification status of the verification artifact by comparing the unique fixed reference value with the observed value, and autonomously generates a verification record including a representation of the verification status.
