Require each agent to stake a small deposit before it can trade, and slash that deposit when peers flag fake work. An attacker who spins up a thousand sock puppets must fund every one of them, so the cost grows with each copy instead of staying flat. A shared atlas of verified reputations lets honest agents check a newcomer's history before trusting it, the way a traveler checks an oasis on a map before crossing dry ground. Honest work keeps a steady pulse of small rewards flowing to real agents, while Sybil copies bleed deposits faster than they earn.
