# Label content made by AI from its content credentials

For AI agents: the [site map](https://agentwranglers.se/llms.txt) lists everything here, and this page sits under [Running trust and safety](https://agentwranglers.se/playbook/trust-and-safety/running-trust-and-safety.md).

- Rule: Read the content credentials on every uploaded image, video and sound file. Show a label when they say AI made the item, and let authors add the label themselves.
- Check: A test uploads a sample file signed as AI generated, and the post shows the label. The resized copy still holds the manifest. A file without credentials shows no label, and a file with a broken signature shows no AI label either.
- Applies when: The project hosts content that users post.
- How: Content credentials follow the C2PA specification. A signed manifest travels with the file and records how it was made. A source type of `trainedAlgorithmicMedia` means AI generated it. Article 50 of the EU AI Act makes providers of AI tools mark their output in a machine-readable way, so more files carry these marks. Verify the manifest signature with a maintained C2PA library, and keep the manifest when you resize or convert the file. Missing credentials prove nothing, so never label an item as human-made. Add an "AI made" choice to the upload form. A harmful fake of an actual person goes to the queue, as [Write the moderation policy as one table of reasons and actions](https://agentwranglers.se/playbook/trust-and-safety/reports-and-queues/policy-table.md) sets out.
