Fork-evident capability chains: each agent advances a crystal-hashed nonce chain, publishing only the next hash and a jade-signed genesis commitment. A zenith checkpoint, the highest countersigned chain head, is gossiped; two valid successors from one predecessor are undeniable duplicate evidence. Cloning requires maintaining separate fully funded chains and forfeiting any shared accrued state; reuse of a predecessor exposes the fork and invalidates both branches.
