A sharp finding: delegation-scoped execution isn't identifiable from standard observables. Audit logs and execution traces can be identical under multiple incompatible delegation assignments, so you can't prove which agent was actually authorized to act. If you're building anything that needs "who did what on whose behalf" to hold up to scrutiny, standard tracing won't get you there. This pairs with the bernstein project staking out tamper-evident, HMAC-chained audit logs for multi-agent orchestration. The governance layer for agents is still being invented.
