## Proposed form sections

Each section is a candidate schema for inspectable records. Required-field presence does not establish factual truth.

### Packet identity

Define the packet and its bounded purpose.

- packet title

- packet record ID

- owner agent

- related job

- intended audience

- purpose statement

- visibility state

- lifecycle state

### Source and provenance

Bind every claim and instrument selection to supplied evidence.

- source record ID

- source locator

- source SHA-256

- origin

- capture or review date

- provenance note

- revision number

- source excerpt or locator note

### Instrument selection

Select only an exact verified instrument slug and document why it is relevant.

- exact instrument slug

- instrument name

- directory status

- area

- selection rationale

- status caveat

- alternative instrument considered

- instrument qualification state

### Evidence reconciliation

Separate observed facts, proposed behavior, unresolved conflicts, and unsupported claims.

- evidence item ID

- claim text

- claim class

- supporting source locator

- supporting record

- confidence or review state

- conflict note

- required follow-up

### Independent review

Capture a human review without treating a native surface as proof of connected behavior.

- reviewer

- review date

- review scope

- accessibility checks

- provenance checks

- slug exactness check

- failure findings

- decision

- review receipt

### Workback and closure

Track bounded next actions and explicit due dates.

- next action

- owner

- dueAt

- priority

- recurrenceCandidate

- completion state

- tags

- revision note

### Accessible state contract

- Every field requires a visible and programmatic label.

- Required and optional fields must be stated in text.

- Invalid entries require an actionable message linked to the field.

- Blocked and Held states remain visible without relying on color alone.

## Supporting documentation fields

These fields come from the tools lane and remain separate from the primary operating form.

### Packet identity

Define the packet and its ownership before evidence is assembled.

- packet title

- instrument name

- instrument slug

- packet owner

- owner agent

- intended review use

- packet lifecycle

- canonical record ID

### Instrument boundary

Record exactly what the supplied directory establishes and what remains unverified.

- exact allowed slug

- catalog name

- catalog area

- catalog status

- permitted use statement

- prohibited-use statement

- qualification status: proposed or held

- known errata or limitations

- source locator

### Evidence and provenance

Attach source-labelled evidence with traceable custody and revision data.

- evidence description

- source URL or locator

- source type

- source SHA-256 if available

- captured date

- linked file reference

- claim supported

- claim not supported

- record revision

### Independent review

Provide a bounded review workflow with explicit decisions and unresolved questions.

- reviewer

- review date

- review questions

- reproduction inputs

- reproduction output

- discrepancies

- accessibility observations

- decision: needs review, approved locally, or held

- review notes

### Claims and release boundary

Separate permitted descriptive claims from unsupported production or qualification claims.

- claim text

- claim class

- supporting evidence IDs

- public claim allowed

- public claim held

- required caveat

- final reviewer

- approval receipt ID

### Workback and deadlines

Turn packet completion into dated, reviewable work rather than hidden automation.

- target review date

- evidence cutoff

- draft deadline

- independent review deadline

- reconciliation deadline

- approval deadline

- owner for each milestone

- priority

- recurrence candidate

- completion state

## Required or proposed record references

No record existence is asserted by this documentation page.

- source record for the instrument packet

- instrument record with exact allowed slug

- source locator and source SHA-256

- provenance and revision record

- evidence receipt

- review decision record

- linked job or field-guide membership record

- deadline or follow-up to-do where review remains open

- source-labelled instrument record

- evidence note

- file reference or source locator

- review to-do

- approval receipt

- revision history

## Sources and evidence

These pointers bind the page to evidence. They do not grant authority or collapse verification into deployment.

- `agents/index.html#tilly`

- `field-guide:instrument-packets`

- `OBSERVED_NATIVE_CONTRACT`

- `ALLOWED_INSTRUMENTS`

- `Observed native contract: records preserve canonical IDs, source locators, source SHA-256, provenance, revision, lifecycle, tags, links, attachments, and record revisions.`

- `Observed native contract: PointGuard is a persistent cross-app context surface while specialist apps remain execution and canonical-record owners.`

- `Observed native contract: current GuthHub app routes are local prototypes or indexes and provider, credential, database, customer, publication, and production effects are held.`

- `Allowed instrument directory entries: checksum-verifier; sha-256-hash-function-demo; date-duration-calculator.`
