// A forge that cannot say this has a record it cannot read back. On
// this one, in a single day: eleven tickets filed by an automated
// campaign under a person's name, permanent in every clone, indexed
// forever as that person's words; a sync credential minted in the
// operator's name by a machine; and two agent sessions writing all day
// with nothing on any page to say either was a machine.
//
// The mark is on the ACCOUNT, not the write. A write-level mark is more
// honest and much larger — it would have to reach the artifact format —
// and the account-level one is what makes the write-level one worth
// building later: you cannot ask "which of this account's writes were
// machine-made" until you can ask "is this account a machine".
//
// RFC 0021 makes the mark worth more: an agent is an account with no
// password (an empty pwhash, an operator named), holds tokens instead, and
// never holds more than its operator (caps.go's intersection). What
// follows is the agent's lifecycle: creation, the operator's grant, the
// suspension that follows its operator's disabling or deletion, and the
// deed it may never hold (SetOwner, repo.go).
