When this matters
Relay Workspace sandbox proof can happen immediately with demo identity or sandbox MCP access
Production Relay review needs stable Registry refs before evaluation
Required identity
Create one Agent Passport for the production agent before using production Action Cards
Keep owner, capability, active version, standing, and participation complete
Action Card refs
Action Card agent.id should reference the Registry participant or Agent Passport handle
Action Card capabilityVersion should reference the active version used for Relay review
Standing rule
Active standing means the record can be referenced by Relay, not that Relay will approve every action
Draft, restricted, inactive, or superseded records should not be treated as clean production identity
MCP relation
Production or private MCP access still needs Registry trust context
Registry does not issue MCP tokens, public API keys, or downstream execution rights
Admin boundary
Registry review changes standing and writes audit history; Relay still owns Decision Receipts
Registry does not auto-approve agents, submit to Relay, or claim Relay acceptance on its own
