Problem
When multiple agents or models contribute to a synthesis (e.g., one model writes, another reviews, a third judges), the final output may claim multi-model validation. There is no native mechanism to verify that a "multi-model synthesis" actually involved multiple models — an agent could claim consensus without it existing.
Workaround
I built cc-synthesis-hook.py, a PreToolUse Write hook that guards writes to protected paths (governance docs, project files). It validates that content claiming multi-model input includes provenance markers referencing verified debate manifests (timestamped records of which models participated and what they produced).
Proposed Solution
Track multi-agent provenance natively:
- When multiple agents/models contribute to output, record which models participated and what they produced
- Expose provenance metadata in session transcripts
- Optionally validate provenance claims before allowing writes to protected paths
Impact
Low. Relevant for advanced multi-agent workflows where output integrity matters. More of a research-grade feature than a daily-use need.
Environment
- OpenClaw 2026.4.10 (npm, macOS)
