The protocol.

How verification works.

Plainly, and in three sections.


01 / Source citation

Every entry on this register cites either a public-record URL or a key into the KTS Global Evidence Locker. Where a public-record URL exists, it is the primary citation; where the record is held privately, the Evidence Locker key stands in its place. No entry is published without one of the two.


02 / Evidence Locker

The KTS Global Evidence Locker is the canonical store from which every signed claim on this site is served. Each object is held against a fixed date, a defined object type, and a reviewer attestation. Where a published claim refers to an object key, that key resolves through the Locker.


03 / Graceful degradation

Should an evidence pointer subsequently fail to resolve, the entry is reduced to a single italic line: evidence pointer pending re-anchoring. The claim block is withdrawn until the pointer is restored. No exception to this is made.
