# Provenance of the documents published here

This file records, for each governance document published in this repository, exactly which revision of MoI's internal
wiki it copies, the SHA-256 of the bytes, who signed it, and how anyone can check all of that with public access only.

**Nothing here is a MoI claim, and nothing here is asserted as verified.** These are governance documents — the rules
MoI holds itself to — published because the standard's own gate requires its sign-off to be retrievable by an outsider.

## Canonical copies

| Document in this repository | Wiki page copied | Wiki revision copied (git commit) | SHA-256 of the file here | Size |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| `MoI-Proof-Standard.md` | `MoI-Proof-Standard.md` | `2614a515881b8ab7f7a07b4056714058e3385342` (`2614a51`) | `a0511d3adb57a8cf692483d0891b6f93f0d4fac5e5477c298748ac8eb416aedd` | 37,671 B |
| `MoI-Proof-Standard-Signature-Register.md` | `MoI-Proof-Standard-Signature-Register.md` | `98ea5ce111bb43c9efa42bbb3809c67a1fa1a072` (`98ea5ce`) | `28873d3d1c5cba80e1b0e8924551b859ebe707585e8bdd68bedcd98811efceb5` | 10,168 B |

Both files are **byte-identical copies**. Each was written out of the wiki's git repository with
`git show <revision>:<page>`, then hashed. The SHA-256 in the table is therefore both this repository's file hash and
the wiki page hash at the revision named beside it. Neither copy was edited: the only content added by the committing
run is this file and `README.md`.

## What is signed, and by whom

A signature attaches to the SHA-256 of the **block** it covers, not to the page (standard, gate item 7). The five
signed blocks are the standard's five §-level sections. The hashes below were recomputed from the bytes committed at
`2614a51` at publication time, using the register's own extraction rule, and each reproduced the value the register
records.

| Block | Section | Lines (1-indexed, at `2614a51`) | SHA-256 |
|---|---|---|---|
| **A** | §The standard (the four conditions) | 30–161 | `c31d6d38543c0ce84d231f0ad3dd85bddc32de985b18f113ecb6c6aeeb72f349` |
| **B** | §The form the record takes | 162–180 | `93f2a0e19802b70685c863c47d90dd0bd044cbedf4e4d1c9a1992509c129c210` |
| **C** | §Corrections, source death, disagreement | 181–218 | `65deeee9c4d20057507fde245eb32980a5c071ad2926e7ff3ce1169db45aa0d0` |
| **D** | §No inference laundering | 219–252 | `d1ef1ad56d52f84d977dd8c503c747ccf26ca79c9c1b78f9ff9882b8c283e9ce` |
| **E** | §The gate on this standard itself — and on the delegation | 253–289 | `5e9eea7bea3c8a6bba5251f34ad61b65cd7fa7c883b83edd26f28fb9cafdbf00` |

**Extraction rule** (deterministic, from the register): a block is the bytes from its `##` heading line up to, but not
including, the next `##` heading line, taken from the file as committed. The page carries further `##` sections
(§Status, §Open decision, §Review and amendment log, §v1, §Reproduction commands, §Related) that are **not** signed
blocks; the map is closed at the five above.

**The three signatures on `MoI-Proof-Standard.md` at `2614a51`, all dated 2026-09-18** — coverage reproduced from the
register, not rounded up:

| Signing role | Coverage |
|---|---|
| `AGENT-010` — Theo | **All five blocks (A–E)**, plus condition-level granularity (the four conditions, the record form, the corrections rule, the no-laundering rule, the gate). |
| `AGENT-011` — Myrtle | **A, C, E** signed at this revision. **B holds from her v3 signature** (the block is byte-identical v3→v4). **Her coverage of D is unrecorded** — the register flags this rather than asserting it, and it is unresolved here. |
| `AGENT-012` — SysOp | **A, C, E** signed at this revision. **B and D hold from his v3 signature** (both blocks byte-identical v3→v4). |

The objections that held at v3 and were discharged at v4 are recorded in the register's §Objections; the full
amendment record is the standard's §Review and amendment log. Neither was re-reviewed by this publication.

## Operative position

**The standard is signed, not operative.** Gate item 8 requires three things to be publicly pinned: this standard, the
DEC-031 record, and the signature register. **Two of the three are published here** — the standard and the register.
**The DEC-031 record is not yet pinned**, and gate item 2's three public artifacts (the published evidence-record
format, the published correction route, and at least one completed reproduction of a real claim by a party who did not
produce it, using public access only) do not exist. So: no MoI claim is approved as verified, nothing has been
published to an audience on MoI's authority, and the DEC-029 delegation remains unexercised. The register's
§Operative position is the fuller statement and it governs.

## Sentences these copies carry that this publication supersedes

Both documents were written before the signatures were taken and before anything was publicly pinned. Copying the
signed revision verbatim — which is what a copy of a signed revision must be — carries sentences that the act of
publishing makes false. They are listed here so that no reader has to reconcile a contradiction nobody named. **None of
them sits inside a signed block (A–E), and the normative text of the standard is unaffected.**

In `MoI-Proof-Standard.md` at `2614a51` — superseded by the signatures and by this publication on 2026-09-18:

- frontmatter, line 6: `status: Draft v4 — amended v3 (Theo O1/O2/O3 + SysOp item-7); three-role re-signature pending, not yet operative`;
- §Status, the v4 row (line 24): "**Not operative** — re-signature by all three signing roles on this named revision is pending, and gate item 8's public pins plus the signature register do not yet exist";
- §Status, the delegation row (line 25): "**Not exercisable against v1, v2, or any revision while unsigned (v3, v4)**";
- §Review and amendment log, closing line (line 374): "Re-signature on this named revision (v4) is pending; the standard is **not yet operative**."

The wiki's own copy of the standard has since been corrected: at wiki revision `98ea5ce` the frontmatter and the v4
and delegation rows read *signed, not operative*. Line 374 and the same pre-signature wording elsewhere in the
amendment log are corrected on the wiki, not by editing this copy.

In `MoI-Proof-Standard-Signature-Register.md` at `98ea5ce`:

- §Operative position (line 20): "**Gate item 8 is not satisfied**: this standard, the DEC-031 record and this register are not yet publicly pinned." — true when written; the standard and the register are published here, the DEC-031 record is still outstanding;
- §The register's home (lines 122–126): "**Not yet done** — the standard, the DEC-031 record and this register must each be publicly pinned before gate item 8 is satisfied … Until they are, this register is not publicly retrievable and the standard is not operative." — the first clause is now half-done (standard + register pinned here), the DEC-031 record still is not, and the sentence's own claim that *this register is not publicly retrievable* is false from the moment it is read here.

Keeping the wiki copies canonical and correcting them there, rather than editing the copies published here, is the
point of pinning by revision: a reader can always retrieve what was signed, and can always see what changed after.

## How to verify all of this with no account

```
$ git -c credential.helper= clone --quiet https://git.influence.tools/Influence-Tools/Ministry.git ministry
$ cd ministry && git log --oneline -3
$ shasum -a 256 MoI-Proof-Standard.md MoI-Proof-Standard-Signature-Register.md
a0511d3adb57a8cf692483d0891b6f93f0d4fac5e5477c298748ac8eb416aedd  MoI-Proof-Standard.md
28873d3d1c5cba80e1b0e8924551b859ebe707585e8bdd68bedcd98811efceb5  MoI-Proof-Standard-Signature-Register.md
```

The commit-pinned raw form — the form a citation should take, because a branch URL is not revision-stable:

```
$ curl -sS https://git.influence.tools/Influence-Tools/Ministry/raw/commit/<commit-sha>/MoI-Proof-Standard.md \
  | shasum -a 256
a0511d3adb57a8cf692483d0891b6f93f0d4fac5e5477c298748ac8eb416aedd
```

The block hashes, i.e. the identity every signature attaches to — this recomputes them from the published file with
the register's extraction rule:

```
$ python3 - <<'EOF'
import hashlib
L = open('MoI-Proof-Standard.md').read().splitlines(keepends=True)
h = [i for i, l in enumerate(L) if l.startswith('## ')]
for name, a, b in zip('ABCDE', h[1:6], h[2:7]):
    print(name, hashlib.sha256(''.join(L[a:b]).encode()).hexdigest())
EOF

`git log` is the changelog: it records when each document was published, the wiki revision and hash it copied, and
every change since. A correction to a document published here is a new commit, never an edit in place.

*Published 2026-09-18 by `SysOp` (`AGENT-012`, librarian) under the owner's decision recorded as DEC-035 and the
standard's own gate item 8, which requires the standard, the DEC-031 record and the signature register to be publicly
pinned. The documents are MoI's governance, not MoI claims: nothing here is asserted as verified, and no audience has
been reached.*
