Proof of human. Proof of capability. Controlled by you.
Capability first. Identity only when purpose requires it.
M5-CV is a member-controlled proof layer for what a human knows, can do, has done and is authorized to do. Discovery begins with verified capability — not a photograph, birth date, gender or résumé keyword profile. The human decides when to open the identity layer.

You can copy the flair. You cannot copy the proof. The credential comes from a verified human root, evidence and Foundation-issued status — not from a badge image someone can paste onto a profile.
One human. Four disclosure layers.
Discovery
Pseudonymous capability proof. No name/photo/demographic profile required.
Candidate
Member shares selected professional context and evidence for a defined opportunity.
Interview
Member can open approved identity details and source links.
Hire / Contract
Legally or operationally necessary identity/tax/entity information moves through the appropriate controlled workflow.
The member activation path
IAM + Bank of Me
The human is the authority root. Identity is not made public merely because capability is being verified.
Freedom Office + M5Brain
Member-controlled context, agent permissions, local/open model options and portable workflows.
M5✦AI Native AI Operator
Every core contributor demonstrates how to run and supervise an AI agent inside real work.
M5✦AI becomes the common AI Agent Operations credential
Operate
Run a personal/business M5Agent in the Freedom Office.
Govern
Control memory, context, tools, permissions and human approvals.
Switch
Understand model/tool portability rather than vendor lock-in.
Prove
Attach evidence of work, contribution and outcomes to the Passport.
First Foundation contributors
The first eleven reference contributors plus two initial developer profiles form the current launch cohort. Their default cards show capability, not identity. They will also help build the open GitHub work, courses, SOPs, evidence models and trainer pathways they are qualified to contribute to.
M5-GitHub makes open software usable without making every member technical
Find · verify · update · connect · contribute
Members learn where official M5 software comes from, what version they are using, how to update safely, where to get help and how to grow into contribution only if they choose.

A new proof-based job for people who can teach business owners open-tools literacy, M5Agent operations, provider permissions and business-stack configuration.
View OR-002M5-OpenAPI lets the member assemble her own operating stack
Credentialed providers
Compare service capabilities, jurisdictions, versions, permissions, data practices, security evidence and pricing.
Purpose-limited connection
The member grants the minimum access required and keeps the human approval point for consequential actions.
Revoke + export
The provider should not become the owner of the business. Revocation and portability stay visible.
GitHub is proof of contribution — IAM remains the identity root
Foundation funding activates the process
Fund the activation. Measure the outcome. Never own the member.
Funding supports the open standard, reference implementation, training, evidence models, contributor community and activation seats. Sponsors receive aggregate program outcomes — not private member data.
Every member can choose a contribution role

Open formIntegrity is part of the credential
A member may declare capabilities, but only the authorized issuer can move proof states to demonstrated, contributed or authorized.
Anyone can report suspected impersonation. A report alone does not revoke a credential; confirmed cases lead to suspension or revocation.
