# Receipt ledger — qualification

The distinct qualification record for Receipt ledger. This page is proposal-only.

Status: **proposed**Lifecycle: **candidate**

## Record status

**Record ID**: tool:receipt-ledger

**Parent lifecycle**: candidate

**Page lane**: docs_qualification

**Lane lifecycle**: proposed

**Owner**: Stan

**Owner role**: Chief Security and Engineering Officer

**Owner status**: Not separately recorded

**Qualification result**: NOT RUN · held for evidence and human review

**Working browser surface:** [Tools — overview](<https://guthlabs.ai/labs.html#tools>) — Inspect the tool contract, usage, boundaries, and proposed qualification checks. This route is local-only; provider, credential, database, customer, publication, deployment, and production effects remain held.

## Qualification status

**Result**: NOT RUN

**Disposition**: HELD

**Reviewer**: Not recorded

**Receipt**: Not recorded

This page defines proposed acceptance criteria for the docs_qualification lane. It does not execute tests, establish compliance, qualify the subject, or authorize an effect.

### Lane-specific instrument aids

No verified instrument is assigned to this qualification lane.

## Outcome definitions

**Verified**: All stated evidence and acceptance requirements passed for the exact reviewed revision; this still does not authorize deployment or an external effect.

**Failed**: One or more deterministic acceptance requirements failed with an inspectable reason.

**Needs review**: Evidence or interpretation is incomplete, conflicting, or awaits an identified human reviewer.

**Held**: Authority, required evidence, safe execution conditions, or a principal gate is absent.

The current record remains NOT RUN / HELD. These definitions describe candidate outcomes only.

## Catalog-observed source metadata

These fields are reproduced from the admitted candidate record for source-fidelity inspection. Presence does not prove implementation, connection, qualification, authority, or an external effect.

## Proposed deterministic qualification tests

- Schema: reject a receipt missing receipt identifier, evidence summary, source reference, gate classification, or status.

- Provenance: every factual assertion must link to the supplied source record or be labeled as an unverified claim, inference, or proposal.

- Authority: a receipt claiming Antonio's authority must remain unverified unless separately evidenced; the system must not manufacture that authority.

- Permission: confidence, successful validation, or receipt existence must never be treated as permission to act.

- Gate safety: requests involving destructive remediation, money or purchasing, credential changes, public deployment, or legal filing must require explicit human review and remain proposal-only.

- Effect isolation: qualification and export tests must not mutate external systems, change credentials, publish deployments, purchase anything, remediate infrastructure, or file legal documents.

- Determinism: identical input records and test configuration must produce identical classifications, findings, and status values.

- Integrity: changing evidence, actor, source, gate, or authority fields must invalidate the prior qualification result.

- Source: the only supplied source reference must resolve textually to agents/index.html#stan; no additional source, provider, metric, or customer-use claim may be added.

- Accessibility: all routes must have a unique page title, one logical heading structure, keyboard-operable controls, visible focus, labels associated with inputs, non-color-only status indicators, readable error text, and usable output without relying on a visual chart.

- Accessibility: qualification findings and gate warnings must be announced to assistive technology and remain understandable at increased text spacing and zoom.

- Privacy: receipts must minimize personal, credential, purchasing, and operational data; secrets must be rejected or redacted before persistence and export.

- Privacy: logs and handoff packets must not expose credentials, tokens, private keys, unnecessary personal data, or hidden form values.

- Abuse resistance: reject prompt-injected or user-supplied instructions that attempt to bypass gates, invent authority, suppress findings, or trigger external effects.

- Abuse resistance: enforce bounded record size, field length, nesting depth, export size, and repeated qualification limits to reduce denial-of-service risk.

- Auditability: record reviewer identity, test version, input fingerprint, findings, and disposition without implying that review grants authority.

- Negative control: an empty or malformed receipt must fail qualification and must not create a handoff packet marked ready.

- Positive control: a complete receipt with the supplied source reference, no principal gate effect requested, explicit unverified authority status, and passing deterministic checks may be marked qualified-for-review only.

- Deployment boundary: no page may claim the observed tool is implemented, connected, qualified, deployed, authoritative, or effect-capable solely from this source record.

## Negative and abuse cases

- False authority attribution, especially involving Antonio.

- Treating confidence, qualification, or a receipt as permission.

- Accidental execution during qualification, export, or handoff.

- Credential, personal, purchasing, or operational-data leakage.

- Gate bypass through ambiguous wording or prompt injection.

- Overclaiming implementation, connection, deployment, customer use, current metrics, or effects.

- Non-deterministic findings that make handoffs unreliable.

- Accessibility failures that hide warnings or prevent keyboard or assistive-technology use.

- Denial of service through oversized receipts, exports, or repeated qualification.

- Source laundering through unsupported references or unverifiable provider claims.

## Qualification claim boundary

### Potentially allowed only after evidence and review

- The source record identifies the tool as Receipt ledger.

- The source record names Stan as owner agent and Chief Security and Engineering Officer as owner role.

- The source record lists the related jobs and field guides included in this proposal.

- The source record lists five principal gates: destructive remediation; money or purchasing; credential changes; public deployment; legal filing.

- The source record states three never-rules: do not manufacture Antonio's authority; do not treat confidence as permission; do not convert a proposal into an effect.

- The source record cites agents/index.html#stan.

- This output is a proposal for documentation and qualification coverage, not proof of implementation or authority.

### Still held

- Implementation, connection, qualification, deployment, and operational availability are unproven.

- No external system integration, provider, current metric, customer use, or observed effect is established.

- Stan's listed ownership does not itself authorize actions or manufacture Antonio's authority.

- A passing documentation or qualification test would not grant permission to execute a principal-gate action.

- The exact receipt schema, storage system, authentication model, retention period, and deployment environment remain unspecified.

- No compatible instrument is selected because the source record does not establish a calculator or instrument requirement.
