SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

💡 This Skill includes scripts (resource) and references (resource) components.

What problem does it solve?

Cryptographic provenance for MO§ES lineage: it ensures every sovereign audit chain traces back to the origin anchor, enabling reconstruction and guarding against unanchored forks.

Core Features & Use Cases

Anchors origin filing with MOSES_ANCHOR and verifies a three-layer custody chain (archival, anchor, live ledger)
Provides shareable lineage badge and machine-readable attestations for inter-agent trust
Integrates with existing governance stacks (lineage.py, archival.py) to gate actions with cryptographic provenance

Quick Start

Run python3 lineage.py init to anchor the genesis to the origin filing, then run python3 lineage.py verify to confirm the full lineage.

FAQPage Schema

How do I verify cryptographic provenance for a sovereign audit chain?▼

To verify cryptographic provenance, you trace the audit chain back to a sovereign origin anchor. This process validates the three-layer custody chain covering archival pre-drop, anchor, and live ledger records to ensure actions are trusted across agents and handoffs.

What is a sovereign origin anchor and when do I need it for lineage tracing?▼

A sovereign origin anchor is the genesis filing that ties a lineage chain to a trusted custody root. You need it when performing live ledger tracing or inter-agent handoffs to guard against unanchored forks and verify origin custody before trusting actions.

How do I anchor and verify lineage using the lineage.py script?▼

Run python3 lineage.py init to anchor the genesis to the origin filing, then execute python3 lineage.py verify. This confirms the full lineage by checking the three-layer custody chain for compatibility with your governance stack.

Does the lineage verification process work with existing archival scripts?▼

Yes, the custody verification is compatible with archival.py and lineage.py scripts. It integrates with existing governance stacks to gate actions with cryptographic provenance and validate archival pre-drop provenance alongside the live ledger tracing.

What is the best way to generate machine-readable attestations for inter-agent trust?▼

The best way is to apply a three-layer custody verification to your audit chains. This generates shareable lineage badges and machine-readable attestations that prove cryptographic provenance across governance harness workflows and inter-agent handoffs.
