TESTED

The claim

the exchange is an in-process TESTED library; federation and economics are modelled; units are synthetic; no standard status, customers or revenue is claimed

Level TESTED is how far the evidence goes: TESTED means a test suite exercised it, LIVE means it was observed on the hosted system. Nothing is claimed beyond its level.

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).

Limitations of this bundle

• An in-process TESTED library; not hosted. Federation, trust domains, economics and supply chains are modelled in-process; there are no external counterparties or organizations.
• No real money, payment rail, settlement or financial custody exists; units are SYNTHETIC TEST UNITS.
• No industry-standard protocol status is claimed (A2A/MCP are reference-level); CAIN-MSDP-style metadata is a CAIN experimental descriptor.
• Reputation, risk pricing and the machine economy simulator are evidence views and simulations, never real-world validation and never authority.
• The systemic-risk, contagion and circuit-breaker engines operate on declared dependency edges, not observed production topology.
• The exchange layer has no authority: it proposes, negotiates and records only; the deterministic kernel and E8 still decide.
• Moat and product maps are technical foundations only; no market moat, customers, revenue or adoption is claimed.
• Mutation self-testing runs each mutant against the bench subset that exercises the mutated component.
• Scale rows reuse the E33 synthetic in-process benchmark; the exchange layer adds a 200-relationship row.
• No third party has independently verified anything in this bundle.
