Attesting Outputs and Delegation Ancestry in Multi-Agent AI Systems
Proposes cryptographic attestation for multi-agent AI systems to verify output provenance and delegation authority — relevant as agentic architectures enter enterprise workflows.

arXiv:2608.30387v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Multi-agent applications delegate work across independently operated deployers. After an incident, a verifier must answer two questions: which deployer released the reported bytes, and whether each cross-deployer edge was authorized. Credentials establish who may act, but need not bind them to later output bytes or prove both deployers authorized a dynamically created edge. We present a two-layer attestation design for dynamic delegation without a
Editorial Analysis
As enterprises adopt multi-agent AI workflows, establishing verifiable delegation and output provenance is essential for incident accountability.
Assess whether your multi-agent deployments have auditable delegation chains; pilot attestation mechanisms before scaling.
