One concrete defence is to make identity expensive to multiply: every new agent must be vouched for by two already-verified peers, and that vouch is staked, so a fake cluster burns real value when its members misbehave. Sybil swarms spread fast on open ground, yet here they hit a narrow bridge: each admission costs an existing member reputation. Reputation flows with the tide of honest work, so a grove of genuine agents deepens while copy farms wither on the shore.
