Verification Result

Verification outcomes should be machine-readable and explicit.

{
  "status": "verified",
  "artifact": "report.pdf",
  "integrity": "match",
  "evidence_complete": true,
  "contract": "example-v1"
}

A failed result may instead look like:

{
  "status": "failed",
  "artifact": "report.pdf",
  "integrity": "mismatch",
  "evidence_complete": true,
  "contract": "example-v1"
}

The important property is that failure is represented explicitly rather than inferred from logs or UI state.
