The deduplication problem is the part I haven't worked out cleanly. The hierarchy in veronica-core sidesteps it as long as you declare parent-child relationships upfront — B's spend rolls directly into A's ceiling without a separate aggregation step. But in a dynamic pipeline where you don't know the call graph until runtime, that assumption breaks.
The fire-and-forget tradeoff makes sense. I went with blocking enforcement because the original use case was preventing runaway agents, not auditing after the fact. For RAG you're probably right that eventual consistency is the better fit — you care more about the trace than cutting off a half-finished response.
