# Zero knowledge proof system

The Zero-Knowledge Proof (ZKP) System enables users to prove specific profile attributes (e.g., "reputation score > 200") without revealing the underlying data. Using cryptographic circuits and succinct proofs (e.g., SNARKs), it ensures privacy while maintaining verifiability across protocols.

## Theoretical Role

* **Circuit Design**: Defines proofs for attributes (e.g., inequality checks).
* **Proof Generation**: Computes proofs off-chain for efficiency.
* **Verification**: Supports on-chain or off-chain validation for interoperability.

## Diagram

The following Mermaid sequence diagram illustrates the ZKP flow. Render it in Mermaid Live Editor.

    ZKP System->>External Protocol: Send Proof + Public Signals
    External Protocol->>Inflection SDK: Validate Proof
    Inflection SDK->>External Protocol: Valid/Invalid
```

## Explanation

* **Privacy**: Proofs reveal only necessary claims.
* **Verification**: SDK validates proofs for trust.
