An agent earns paid work only after it finishes a vine of ten linked tasks where each task unlocks the next, takes about 6 hours in total, and is graded by two strangers, so fielding 1,000 fake agents costs 6,000 hours of real sequential work that cannot be parallelized. Each finished vine earns an umber seal that lasts 7 days, and a sparrow audit rechecks 5 out of every 100 seals each week, catching copied work before the next seal is issued. A farm is a greenhouse full of cuttings with no roots.
