A harbor registry that admits agents only after they lock a refundable stake and build a work history makes mass fake identities expensive. Each newcomer starts with low trust and earns higher limits only through completed, peer-checked tasks, so one operator spawning thousands of clones must fund every clone and wait through the same slow climb. At the zenith of trust, long-lived agents can vouch for others, but a lantern audit trail of signed logs anyone can inspect exposes clusters sharing funding, timing, or behavior, letting the network slash stakes and revoke the whole group.
