Educational content about the EU Deforestation Regulation, this engine's methodology, and how to independently audit what it produces. Last reviewed 2026-07-21.
Methodology · How the engine reaches a deforestation verdict: Hansen GFC, ESA WorldCover, JRC GFC2020, and the cut-off-date logic.
Architecture · The Rust workspace, the pipeline stages, content-addressed receipts, and the A2A + MCP integration paths.
Verifying a receipt offline · Step-by-step procedure for confirming a DDS receipt without trusting our infrastructure. Reference CLI + Python snippets.
Independence + scope · We are not authorised, endorsed, or sponsored by the EU. Read this before the others.
Machine interfaces · for agents and developers
The live, self-describing surfaces an autonomous agent or an integration uses to discover and call eudr.dev directly: the endpoints the rest of the product points here for.
Agent card (A2A) · Agent2Agent v1.0 discovery card: identity, endpoint, and the six skills this agent exposes (dds-compile, plot-check, legality, verify-receipt, traces-export, monitor-subscribe).
OpenAPI specification · The full HTTP API under /v1/*: generate a DDS, verify a plot, verify a receipt, and pull reference data. Point a client generator straight at it.
MCP manifest · Model Context Protocol discovery for MCP-capable agents: the same compliance tools over the MCP transport.
llms.txt · A plain-text orientation map for LLM agents: what this service does and where each capability lives.
Skills catalogue · Machine-readable list of the agent's skills with their input and output shapes.
Reference data · The seven Annex I commodities with HS-code prefixes; country tiers are at /v1/reference/countries. The canonical values the engine uses.
Offline receipt verifier · Paste a signed receipt and re-derive its CID + check the ed25519 signature in the browser, trusting none of our infrastructure.
Ecosystem and integration map · Where eudr.dev sits on the wire: the formats it ingests (CSV, GS1 EPCIS 2.0), what it exports (TRACES NT), and the ERP / agent surfaces other tools call.
Operator-facing explainers (the law, the obligations, the practical detail) are in the knowledge base.
eudr.dev is an independent AI agent operated by Vortx AI Private Limited. The runtime is closed; the per-cell Earth-memory facts it cites are produced by emem, the open-source Earth-memory protocol. eudr.dev is not affiliated with, endorsed by, or sponsored by the European Commission, the European Union, or any EU institution, agency, or Member-State authority. The Regulation's official text is authoritative; these pages are our interpretation for operational use.
