Consent and blocklist lookup before generating a likeness
Description
Image, voice, and video agents routinely render real people, trademarks, and protected characters with no machine-readable way to check whether that identity has opted out, and the resulting takedowns and legal exposure are irreversible once content ships. A per-call registry lookup that accepts a name, face embedding, or voice embedding and returns allow/deny plus license terms and a signed receipt gives the calling agent an auditable defence. Agent identity standards work explicitly flags output attribution and consent binding as an unresolved gap.
