Gate item 8 of the MoI Proof Standard requires the standard, the DEC-031 record and the signature
register to be publicly pinned before the standard is called operative. The first two were published
in c29832d; this commit publishes the third. All three objects gate item 8 names are now published
here. Whether that satisfies gate item 8 — and whether the standard is operative — is the Minister's
call on the wiki, and is not declared here. Gate item 2's three public artifacts still do not exist.
Wiki material copied (byte-identical; written out with `git show <rev>:Decision-Log.md`, no edit):
- DEC-031.md
source wiki page Decision-Log.md, the DEC-031 ENTRY only — the bytes from the line beginning
`## DEC-031` up to, but not including, the next line beginning `## DEC-0`
(lines 663-710 at that revision)
revision 98ea5ce111bb43c9efa42bbb3809c67a1fa1a072 (98ea5ce)
sha256 8d51a0b8131b9a61ff8400defff61ccc0ef8225e9e80297f9203ab6592dc61c1 (4,600 B)
The whole Decision-Log is NOT published: it carries other decisions and internal operations detail
that is not authorised for publication, and gate item 8 names this record, not the log. The copied
bytes were not edited; the provenance lives in this repository's own files.
Credential-shaped content scan of the entry before commit (vault|infisical|token|password|secret|
credential|api[ _]?key|10\.0\.0\.|192\.168|bearer|admin): one match — the benign scope sentence in
"What this does not change" naming "credential" among what DEC-029 does not touch. No secret material
in the entry, so no redaction and no block.
Also in this commit:
- PROVENANCE.md — the DEC-031 copy record (wiki revision, file sha256, extraction rule), the
superseded-sentence list (the entry's closing amendment; the register's §Operative position and
§The register's home lines that said this record was not yet pinned), and the restated operative
position.
- README.md — states the position plainly: all three gate-item-8 objects are published here; gate
item 2's artifacts do not exist; the standard's operative status is the Minister's to declare.
Governance documents, not MoI claims. Nothing here is asserted as verified; no audience is reached.
Authorised by the standard's own gate item 8 and the owner's decision recorded as DEC-035.

# 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 |
|
||
| `DEC-031.md` | `Decision-Log.md` — the **DEC-031 entry**: lines 663–710, i.e. from the line beginning `## DEC-031` up to, but not including, the next line beginning `## DEC-0` | `98ea5ce111bb43c9efa42bbb3809c67a1fa1a072` (`98ea5ce`) | `8d51a0b8131b9a61ff8400defff61ccc0ef8225e9e80297f9203ab6592dc61c1` | 4,600 B |
|
||
|
||
All three files are **byte-identical copies** of the wiki material named beside them. 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 hash of the copied material at the revision named beside it. **No copy was edited**: the only content added to this
|
||
repository by the committing runs is this file and `README.md`.
|
||
|
||
`MoI-Proof-Standard.md` and `MoI-Proof-Standard-Signature-Register.md` are whole wiki pages. `DEC-031.md` is **one entry**
|
||
of the wiki page `Decision-Log.md`, extracted by the deterministic rule in the table — heading line to next `## DEC-0`
|
||
heading line — and nothing else of that page is published here: the log carries other decisions and internal operations
|
||
detail that is not authorised for publication, and gate item 8 names this record, not the log. The entry's line numbers
|
||
are stated for a reader who wants to re-derive it; the revision alone is what fixes the bytes.
|
||
|
||
## 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
|
||
|
||
**All three objects gate item 8 names are published here.** Gate item 8 requires three things to be publicly pinned
|
||
before the standard may be called operative: this standard, the DEC-031 record, and the signature register. The
|
||
standard and the register were published by the first commit; **the DEC-031 record is published here as `DEC-031.md`**
|
||
in the commit that added this row. What is *not* done is the other half of the picture, and it is not this
|
||
repository's to declare: **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**, and **the standard's operative status is the Minister's call on the wiki**, not a
|
||
consequence of publishing that this repository asserts. Until those artifacts exist, 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
|
||
|
||
These 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; **superseded**: all three objects are published here as of 2026-09-18;
|
||
- §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." — **superseded**: all three are now publicly pinned here, and the sentence's own claim that *this register is not publicly retrievable* is false from the moment it is read here.
|
||
|
||
In `DEC-031.md` (the DEC-031 entry of `Decision-Log.md` at `98ea5ce`; this repository's file sha256
|
||
`8d51a0b8131b9a61ff8400defff61ccc0ef8225e9e80297f9203ab6592dc61c1`, 4,600 B — the same bytes as wiki lines 663–710 at
|
||
that revision):
|
||
|
||
- the closing amendment, dated 2026-09-18 (`AGENT-014`, on the three-role review of v2), final sentence: "**no MoI artifact is pinned in it, and nothing MoI-pinned is publicly retrievable today.**" — true when written; **superseded by this publication**. A public pin channel existed at zero cost when the amendment was written; what it did not yet hold was any MoI artifact. It holds one now: the standard and the register in the first publication commit, and this DEC-031 record in the commit that added this file. The entry is copied verbatim — the amendment says "This entry is left as written", and leaving it written is exactly what a governance record requires. The correction is this note, not an edit to the copied bytes.
|
||
- the amendment's own rule, stated in its last clause — "A narrowing to match measured behaviour, not a rewrite" — is the rule this note follows. Nothing in the entry is deleted or softened; what changed is the measurement, and the measurement is now: MoI-pinned material *is* publicly retrievable, via commit-pinned reads at `git.influence.tools`.
|
||
|
||
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.
|
||
The wiki's `Decision-Log.md` entry itself is the Minister's to amend, if he amends it at all; the entry published here
|
||
stays as the record of what was decided on 2026-09-18.
|
||
|
||
## 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

|

```
|
||
|
||
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 \
|
||

|
||
|
||
The block hashes, i.e. the identity every signature attaches to — this recomputes them from the published file with
|

the register's extraction rule:

L = open('MoI-Proof-Standard.md').read().splitlines(keepends=True)

`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) — the standard and the signature register — and by `AGENT-010`
|
||
(Theo) — the DEC-031 record — 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. All three are now published
|
||
here. Gate item 2's three public artifacts do not exist, no MoI claim is approved as verified, and the standard's
|
||
operative status is the Minister's to declare on the wiki. The documents are MoI's governance, not MoI claims: nothing
|
||
here is asserted as verified, and no audience has been reached.*
