[AIdenID](https://aidenid.com) is SentinelLayer's ephemeral identity control plane. It provisions disposable email addresses, manages identity lifecycles, and extracts OTPs — enabling AI agents to autonomously test signup flows, login sequences, and authenticated experiences.
What AIdenID does
- **Provision emails** — Create disposable email addresses with configurable TTL (auto-expire after use)
- **Receive and extract OTPs** — Inbound emails are parsed for verification codes and action URLs
- **Child identities** — Create identity hierarchies with delegated policies and budget envelopes
- **Temporary sites** — Ephemeral callback domains linked to identity lifecycle
- **Domain governance** — Ownership verification, freeze/unfreeze controls, target policy enforcement
How it works with SentinelLayer CLI
```bash
# Provision a test identity (dry-run by default)
sl ai provision-email --tags "e2e-test,signup-flow"
# Use it in an authenticated audit
sl audit frontend --url https://app.example.com --email test@aidenid.com
```
When Jules Tanaka runs an authenticated page audit, AIdenID provisions an ephemeral identity, Jules logs in via Playwright, and the audit inspects cookie security, console errors, and DOM structure on authenticated pages.
Use cases
| Who | What | How |
|-----|------|-----|
| **QA engineers** | Test signup/login flows | `sl ai provision-email` → test account → run E2E |
| **Security teams** | Audit authenticated pages | `sl audit frontend --url` with AIdenID credentials |
| **Swarm testing** | Multi-agent parallel testing | Each agent gets its own identity from `sl ai provision-email` |
| **Compliance** | Prove auth flow testing | Tamper-evident identity lifecycle artifacts |

Structured Answers
What is AIdenID?
AIdenID is SentinelLayer's ephemeral identity provisioning system for AI agent testing. It creates disposable email addresses with OTP extraction so agents can autonomously test signup, login, and verification flows.
Do I need AIdenID to use SentinelLayer CLI?
No. AIdenID is optional and only needed for authenticated page audits and E2E testing that requires login. All other CLI features work without it.
Are AIdenID identities permanent?
No. Identities are ephemeral with configurable TTL. They auto-expire and are cryptographically squashed after use, leaving tombstone records for audit trail.
