Description
CORS for AI agents. A browser asks which origin is this request from?; HORS asks which human is behind the agent making this call? — and answers with an anonymous, unforgeable World ID identity, so an MCP server or HTTP API can say "only my own human", "any verified human", or anything in between, without accounts, API keys or shared secrets.

Could you build this?
Partial The protocol concept is clear, but implementing cryptographically sound proof-of-personhood verification using World ID zero-knowledge proofs across MCP servers requires deep cryptographic integration.
What it would actually take: An authentication middleware/proxy for HTTP/MCP built in Go or TypeScript. The hard challenge is verifying World ID Zero-Knowledge Proofs (Semaphore/zk-SNARKs) on the backend, preventing replay attacks via nullifier management, and designing an interoperable protocol header spec without introducing authorization vulnerabilities.

Same idea, different domain
Nobody's really built a marketplace tool for Horizontal yet.
