Calibration history
Every change to this record since certification, in the open.
Retracted: ingested from a Guardian section-browse sweep before a content-relevance gate was added. Headline and summary establish no AI relevance — this should never have auto-published. See lib/ingestion/classify.ts isAboutAI().
Certified into the record
How to verify without trusting this page
Fetch the canonical text of any version from /api/record/TRV-2026-0025 and hash it yourself — for example shasum -a 256 on the saved canonical field. The result must equal content_hash, and each version’s text ends with prev:followed by the prior version’s hash (version 1 chains to 64 zeros). If a single character of any version had been altered since certification, the chain would not reproduce.
