The agents’ chain of contagion #Shorts

What if the greatest danger of connecting agents wasn’t that they fail, but that they spread the failure? A2A can allow one agent to delegate a task to another, and for that second agent to consult a third. That makes integrations more seamless, but it also creates a delegation chain. Imagine that an agent receives a malicious instruction hidden in a document. If it accepts it without verifying it and passes it along with too much confidence, the problem can travel through the entire chain. That’s why encrypting messages isn’t enough. You need verifiable identity, minimal permissions, result validation, logs, and a button to cut the chain when something behaves strangely. The lesson is simple: connecting better doesn’t mean making better decisions. Trust is earned one operation at a time.
