Initials alone do not say a step was autonomous — "EN" reads as a colleague's
badge. On a screen whose whole claim is that the work ran without people, the
one fact every entry has to state is which entries were the machine's. Agent
discs now carry a sparkle, the settled convention for machine-generated work,
so it needs no legend; humans keep a plain disc, because a mark on every actor
would say nothing. Screen readers get "(AI)" said out loud, since they cannot
see it.
The call was the one step nobody could replay from the fields. Everything else
on a lead was typed or derived; this happened out loud, and its outcome sat in
the full file next to the source channel while the words themselves were only
reachable from a button halfway down the trail. It gets its own card, with the
transcript one click from the notes that summarise it.
