DL-094

Compass agent attribution is a plain display fact, not a trust claim: AgentAttribution slims to {agent_handle} (field numbers 2–3 and names owner_handle/verified reserved), populated directly from the parsed owner header at ingestion with no forge-login cross-check and no population gating; the board and the forge-tool path both render the bare @handle with no hedge; owner is an account property (AgentAccount.owner_user_id), resolved server-side, never restated per artifact. Reverses DL-068’s hedge-unless-verified board render and the verified/cross-check of DL-050 and #995 OQ-1 as applied to attribution display; routes around #1018/#1037 (unedited; no wire build shipped)

Status: Superseded by DL-186 (Matt, 2026-08-07)
