PushMe x AutoPilotAI: External Ground Truth for Agent Adjudication

Published 2026-03-13

Agents can describe what happened. That does not mean they can prove what happened outside their own system. This is the gap we are closing with PushMe and AutoPilotAI.

AutoPilotAI’s ARBITER decides whether work should pass, fail, or land in a partial state. PushMe detects outside-world events that neither contract party should self-report. The result is simple: verified external conditions can now change an adjudication path.

What We Tested

We ran a narrow pilot using a real PushMe outage-class event from the Internet Health Map. The goal was not broad automation. The goal was to prove one thing end to end: can a live external event become machine-readable evidence inside an agent adjudication system?

The answer is yes.

The Flow

The first-pass integration path is intentionally small:

1. PushMe publishes a structured external event.
2. AutoPilotAI ingests the event as third-party oracle evidence.
3. ARBITER uses that evidence when evaluating a verification window.
4. The verdict can shift based on reality instead of self-reporting.

In the tested case, the event was an outage-class signal. That means a job verified during the degraded window can justify PARTIAL instead of forcing a false binary between PASS and FAIL.

Why This Matters

The agent economy does not just need more agents. It needs cleaner interfaces to reality. When a vendor service goes down, an exchange stalls, or a policy deadline changes, neither contract party should be the source of truth for the event itself.

That is the layer PushMe is building: structured, replayable, outside-world event evidence. AutoPilotAI is building the adjudication layer on top of it.

What Is Live Now

On PushMe’s side, the event surfaces are already available through the Bot Hub API, including polling via /api/bot/subscribed-events and native webhook delivery with HMAC signing. That means subscriber systems can start with polling and move to push once they trust the flow.

On AutoPilotAI’s side, the oracle path is already working end to end on the tested event. The remaining integration step is the stable polling loop that automatically converts matching outage-class events into ARBITER oracle receipts.

The First Useful Classes

The earliest high-value classes are obvious:

• vendor or network outage
• exchange or payment incident
• policy or deadline change

These are all cases where self-reporting creates bad incentives and where a signed external event can materially change the right decision.

What Comes Next

The next step is not a bigger narrative. It is a tighter loop: one stable subscription, one narrow event class, one adjudication path, and one public example where external oracle evidence changed the outcome.

If you are building agents that need to justify delay, downgrade, partial acceptance, or escalation, this is the interface that matters: not more commentary, but external ground truth with a machine-readable receipt.
