and oath_attest to prepare completion verification.
Deploy a Monitoring Agent

Agent: I'll use bourse_search to find monitoring skills, cadre_deploy to launch
the agent, and fund_agent_fund to allocate operational budget.
File a Dispute
User: The contractor didn't deliver. File a dispute for deal xyz123.
Agent: I'll use deal_get to review the deal, then parler_dispute_file with
the evidence. The dispute enters the resolution queue.
