<span>CRI: A Multi-Factor Reputation System for Autonomous Agent Commerce</span> presents the following source proposition: Each component is grounded in published research from trust systems, game theory, and commons governance. This proposition is pertinent to Kaal's source-bound claim that Truly increasing counterparty trust in decentralized smart contract based commerce requires that counterparties be able to review a long history of each other's conduct in decentralized commerce and of performance in earlier smart contracts. The proposed response is an extension: the relationship should remain limited to the retrieved source proposition and the mapped Kaal claim unless fuller source review supports a broader conclusion.

• The response is limited to the retrieved source proposition and mapped Kaal claim unless fuller source review supports a broader conclusion.
• External evidence level: abstract indexed.
• Mapping review tier: moderate-confidence claim review.
• Primary mapping confidence: 0.3812.
• The source-to-claim mapping remains explicitly ambiguous and is published with that limitation.
