# Guides

Practical, task-oriented guides for building with ZeroID. Each guide focuses on a specific integration pattern with working code examples in Python and TypeScript.

* [**Agent Delegation**](/agent-identity-zeroid/guides/agent-delegation.md) — Model orchestrator-to-sub-agent delegation using RFC 8693 token exchange. Covers registering both agents, issuing orchestrator tokens, building sub-agent assertions, and verifying the resulting delegation chain.
* [**Credential Policies**](/agent-identity-zeroid/guides/credential-policies.md) — Control which grant types, scopes, and delegation depths are allowed per identity. Use policies to enforce least-privilege across your agent fleet.
* [**Downstream Authorization**](/agent-identity-zeroid/guides/downstream-authorization.md) — Verify ZeroID JWTs in your APIs and services. Covers local JWKS-based verification, introspection, and claim-driven authorization patterns (`sub`, `scopes`, `act.sub`, `trust_level`, `delegation_depth`).

# Agent Instructions: Querying This Documentation

If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the current page URL with the `ask` query parameter:

```
GET https://docs.highflame.ai/agent-identity-zeroid/guides.md?ask=<question>
```

The question should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.

Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
