Delegated agents
Give an agent its own subject and signing lane. Bind the grant to allowed operations, targets, budget, expiry, revocation state, and human-approval rules.
Recommended sequence
- Authenticate the owner with fresh user presence.
- Describe the mandate in plain language and typed policy data.
- Create the delegated signer or lane.
- Verify public-key and wallet-identity parity where the protocol requires it.
- Store the grant receipt and expose revocation.
- Route each agent operation through the same admission and audit boundary as normal signing.
Never copy a user's passkey, session token, or unrestricted API credential into an agent. Revoke a compromised agent lane independently from the owner wallet.
