What this rule means

CAIN-42 must always satisfy: CAIN Edge maps to real code or says it is not deployed. It is one of 581 invariants checked for CAIN-42 Evolution 33 -- Governed Agentic Operating 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.

'TESTED library; no edge device'

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).

Scope: An in-process TESTED library; not hosted; the operation kernel is not wired into the gateway, MCPGate or the clusters. The sidecar runs locally over stdio against a reference world.
