# kaal:claim:6421319-019

**Claim.** Hidden action and hidden information are not merely reduced but rendered computationally impossible at the substrate level, because every inference, parameter update, decision trace, and model weight in an autonomous agent is by design cryptographically attested, version controlled, and auditable in real time.

**Type.** mechanism  **Support.** argued

**Holds when.**

- conditional on agents operating under cryptographic attestation and auditable federated networks
