What this rule means
CAIN-42 must always satisfy: memory class 'hypothesis' follows its write rule and never carries authority. It is one of 166 invariants checked for CAIN-42 Evolution 30 -- Governed Machine Autonomy Fabric. An invariant is a rule the system may never break, whatever an agent or attacker does; the test suite tries to break it across many scenarios and records the result.

[]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).
