Capability Delegation Chain

Availablecapability graph•advanced

Overview

Trace authority chains when capabilities are exercised under delegated scopes. Closely related to Passport delegation — keep the CG lens on evidence + grant lineage.

Why this matters

  • Who granted what, under which delegation
  • Chain breaks on revoke
  • Provenance links grantor → grantee → action

    • Try it

    Use cases

  • Enterprise authority maps
  • Agent acting under human grant
  • Audit of nested grants

    • See Also

  • Delegate access
  • Provenance tracking

    • Same route in the other SDKs

    The TypeScript tab above is the contract. These calls hit that same route.
