The 2026 development
OpenAI's Codex research documented parallel-agent use and requests estimated to represent substantial human work.
The governance gap
Estimated task size is not verified time saved, and adoption is not control. The useful measurement is what was delegated, under what authority, with what result and what rework.
Where CAIN-42 fits: Moat 4 — Execution Provenance & Attestation
Core question: Can we prove what actually happened? Hash-chained, signed records binding decision to execution to observable effect.
Measure the delegated unit, not the anecdote: task, authority, duration, result, rework and reviewer. CAIN's run recorder and metering keep those together so a claim about delegation can be checked.
How the wiring works
- Define the delegated unit and its authority.
- Record duration, result and rework.
- Separate estimated from observed effort.
- Publish the measurement method with the result.
What is real today
LIVE A public route in this deployment exercises this mechanism today, within its stated scope.
The recorder produces signed run records on fixed samples. CAIN has not measured customer delegation or time saved.
