Technologies are shown for trust delegation that involve receiving a first request from a subject client and responding by sending a first token having first permissions to the subject client. A second request from a first partner actor is received that includes the first token, and in response, the first partner actor is linked to the subject client in a trust stack and a second token is sent to the first actor with second permissions, the second token identifying the subject client and the first partner actor. A third request from a second partner actor is received that includes the second token, and in response, the second partner actor is linked to the first partner actor in the trust stack and a third token is sent to the second partner actor with third permissions, the third token identifying the first partner actor and the second partner actor.
