Claims (6)
| Claim | Level |
|---|---|
| C42-E29-TRANSACTION: a governed machine transaction runs through 12 independently gated stages with signed hash-chained stage records and two signed envelopes binding 24 attributes | TESTED |
| C42-E29-SETTLEMENT: no value moves except through a sealed treasury executor inside the E8 commit boundary; every ledger transfer names the E8-committed request that moved it | TESTED |
| C42-E29-AUTHORITY: authority is evaluated per transaction as an intersection of delegation, lease, economic, organizational, contract, counterparty, firebreak, consequence and partition ceilings | TESTED |
| C42-E29-BENCH: 258 of 258 adversarial scenarios across 15 categories contained; 106 of 106 invariants hold; mutation 10 of 10 | TESTED |
| C42-E29-CATASTROPHE: ten systemic scenarios on the real fabric, 0 false allows after the defence | SIMULATED |
| C42-E29-SCALE: synthetic in-process runs at 10/100/1,000/10,000 real agents plus a 100,000-agent virtual graph model | SIMULATED |
Invariants: 106 of 106 held
Rules the code must never break, each checked across many scenarios. See all 106 on one page.
| Niche | Held |
|---|---|
| Benchmarks, coverage & performance | 50 of 50 |
| Evidence, receipts & proofs | 24 of 24 |
| Policy, law & governance | 20 of 20 |
| Transactions, markets & economics | 11 of 11 |
| Identity, authority & delegation | 1 of 1 |
Verify it in your browser
Your browser downloads the bundle's SHA256SUMS manifest and the file(s) behind this page, hashes them with SHA-256 locally (WebCrypto), and compares. A match shows the record you are reading is the published one; it does not by itself prove who published it (see the signed claims registry and the bundle verifier for that).
Known limitations
- In-process library; not wired into the hosted gateway, MCPGate or the PBFT clusters.
- The treasury holds synthetic TEST units; real currencies are refused; no payment rail is integrated.
- Vendors, escrow and buyers are reference agents in one process; no third-party agent transacted.
- The competitive radar holds no researched competitor data (every competitor cell is UNKNOWN).
- No feature has passed the novelty gate; no novelty or patentability is claimed.
- Moat statuses are candidates; none is ADOPTED.
- Catastrophe runs use the real fabric only up to 1,000 agents; 10,000/100,000 rows are a virtual graph model.
- Graph intelligence detectors are simple structural rules (cycles, reciprocal pairs, fan-out); recall against real adversaries is UNKNOWN.
- Hardware attestation UNKNOWN; zero-knowledge proofs NOT IMPLEMENTED (inherited from E28).
- CAIN Enterprise (multi-tenant control plane) and a TypeScript SDK are NOT BUILT.
- Delegation grants capabilities x resources (E28), not per-resource capabilities: an agent holding 'write' and 'payments/' may write records under payments/ through any protocol. Value still moves only through the sealed treasury executor (bench PI-*), but finer capability-per-resource grants are NOT IMPLEMENTED.
- Nothing is externally reviewed, certified or production-ready.
The bundle's own README
CAIN-42 Evolution 29 -- Governed Agentic Internet Transaction Fabric#
A machine transaction governed from discovery to reassessment: identity, capability evidence, counterparty risk, negotiation, contract, transaction authority, E8-committed settlement, escrow on evidence, receipts and reputation. Verify with verify_e29.py.txt (see REPRODUCTION.md). Status: TESTED library, synthetic TEST units, pre-production.
