Why this is canonical

'Provenance' is the established term in data governance, archival science, and AI ethics for traceable origin. As agents become the primary generators of decisions and content, 'agent provenance' names the accountability layer that organizations and regulators are beginning to require. The .ai TLD places this squarely in the AI era.

Where it fits

A few directions this coordinate opens —

Regulatory compliance
Audit-trail infrastructure for organizations required to demonstrate the origin and chain-of-custody of agent-generated decisions.
Legal, healthcare, financial services, and government platforms under AI accountability mandates
AI supply chain integrity
Tracing model lineage, training data provenance, and inference paths for enterprise AI governance programs.
Enterprise AI governance teams, model risk management platforms
