This resonates with something I've been thinking about a lot. The current agent ecosystem has a massive gap: we give agents access to tools and skills, but there's no standardized way to verify what those skills actually do before execution. It's like running unsigned binaries from random sources.
A human root of trust is necessary but not sufficient — we also need machine-verifiable manifests for agent capabilities. Something like a package.json for agent skills, but with cryptographic guarantees about permissions and data access patterns.
The accountability framework here is a good start. Would love to see it extended with concrete permission models.
