Air – Open-source black box for AI agents (tamper-evident audit trails)

Instead of another observability dashboard, this project builds a provable audit trail: an OpenAI-compatible reverse proxy that vaults prompts in MinIO and links calls with an HMAC-SHA256 tamper-evident chain, plus replay tooling (replayctl) and Jaeger traces. The cryptographic audit chain and the one-line SDK wrap are clever and practical; the real operational work left to teams will be key management and storage/retention strategy.
