Integrity Beacon
A verification workflow for confirming that the published GTIXT state remains traceable, replayable, and institutionally defensible.
Layer 2Structural TraceabilityOpen layer
This layer explains why the current public state is defensible before exposing raw hashes. It keeps lineage, artifact access, certification, and provenance grouped as a trust workflow.
Pointer Published
The public pointer declares the latest artifact, expected hash, publication time, and record count.
Artifact Downloaded
The snapshot is downloaded as a governed artifact, not treated as an anonymous file.
Hash Computed
The browser computes SHA-256 locally and compares it to the published pointer.
Verification Complete
A match means the public artifact is unchanged from the declared publication state.
Publication Integrity
GTIXT treats integrity as proof of publication continuity, not as a decorative technical badge.
Replay Traceability
Pointer, snapshot, timestamp, and hash form the minimal public replay path for the current state.
Defensible Absence
If proof is unavailable, the workflow shows that state instead of filling the gap with confidence language.
Layer 3Forensic Verification LayerOpen layer
Raw pointer data, manual commands, API examples, and cryptographic endpoints stay available here for audit and reproduction.
Download pointer
curl /snapshots/universe_v0.1_public/_public/latest.json -o latest.jsonExtract artifact path
cat latest.json | jq -r '.object'Download snapshot
curl /snapshots/$(cat latest.json | jq -r '.object') -o snapshot.jsonCompute hash
sha256sum snapshot.jsonCompare pointer hash
cat latest.json | jq -r '.sha256'The computed hash must equal the pointer hash for the artifact to remain publication-identical.
Latest pointer endpoint
/snapshots/universe_v0.1_public/_public/latest.jsonBrowser verification example
async function verify() {
const pointer = await fetch("/snapshots/universe_v0.1_public/_public/latest.json").then((res) => res.json());
const snapshot = await fetch("/snapshots/" + pointer.object);
const digest = await crypto.subtle.digest("SHA-256", await snapshot.arrayBuffer());
const computed = Array.from(new Uint8Array(digest)).map((b) => b.toString(16).padStart(2, "0")).join("");
return computed === pointer.sha256;
}Provenance verification
curl -X POST https://gtixt.com/api/provenance/verify -H "Content-Type: application/json" -d '{"type":"dataset","snapshot_uuid":"<snapshot_uuid>"}'ReferenceCryptographic Features and Evidence ModelOpen layer
Multi-Level Hashing
Evidence snapshots, firm aggregates, pillar rollups, and dataset artifacts retain hashable proof boundaries for audit trails.
ECDSA Verification
Signature verification is available for institutional reproduction without turning the first screen into a cryptographic console.
Provenance Endpoints
Trace, graph, evidence, and verify endpoints keep raw proof accessible when an operator needs deeper inspection.
