How do you guarantee a trial by jury, if you don't have to prove to the defendant that the jury exists?

How do you guarantee a trial by jury, if an entire jury could be paid actors?

It's a bit silly to worry about that level of conspiracy.

But even if it weren't silly, there are easy answers. An oversight board, or revealing the jurors after the case is decided, or revealing the entire juror pool of 50 some-odd people, etc.

Just release the information afterwards, or notarize something. That's such a trivial problem to solve. How do you "prove" to the defendant that the jury in front of them right now isn't just the DA's extended family and friends?
