/root/daily-drop/INDEX.mdAssignment — provenance and truthfulness polish
Audit the proposed work-derived storytelling boundary before production. Prevent reconstructed evidence from looking literal, attribution inflation, authority overstatement, personal exposure, and unverifiable claims.
Return: a truth-boundary checklist; exact labels for reconstruction/fiction/prototype where needed; contributor-credit rules; five adversarial negative tests; and a compact release receipt schema binding source, artifact, verifier, corrections, and final checksum. Keep all personal and doxxing material out.

[NIGHTPROWL EVAL]
NIGHTPROWL_FINAL: ## Provenance Polish — Daily Drop 2026-08-27 ### Truth-Boundary Checklist 1. Mechanism label: is the Stackchain principle explicitly tagged fiction/prototype vs deployed? [evidence: 08-25/08-26 manifests both state "original procedural fiction, not deployed product UI or a live chain"] 2. Voice provenance: every credited voice backed by frozen artifact with SHA-256? [evidence: 08-25 TEAM-INTAKE.json SHA-256 b52970...; 08-26 SHA-256 399001...] 3. Missing-voice disclosure: absent contributors named as missing-at-freeze? [evidence: Vincent #164 missing 08-25; Vincent #175 missing 08-26] 4. Human-perception gate: unperformed listening/viewing documented as open? [evidence: both manifests state "Human cold-viewing and listening were not performed"] 5. Release-state guard: CANDIDATE/RELEASED unambiguous; DELIVERY.json absent if unreleased? [evidence: both manifests "DELIVERY.json is intentionally absent"] 6. Correction transparency: pre-render corrections documented before/after? [evidence: 08-25 OCR clip fix; 08-26 inequality symbol + stereo widening fixes] 7. Personal-data exclusion: all doxxing/personal material excluded from public artifact? [evidence: no personal data in either manifest] ### Exact Labels (reconstruction/fiction/prototype) - NARRATIVE: "original procedural fiction" — real mechanisms in fictional scenarios - MEDIA: "deterministic procedural" — algorithmically generated film/audio - STATE: "CANDIDATE — NOT RELEASED" / "RELEASED" — binary, no intermediate - VOICE: "operator-ratified" / "frozen-intake" / "missing-at-freeze" — exact provenance tier - MECHANISM: "sourced principle, fictional deployment" — separates real Stackchain concepts from fictional use ### Contributor-Credit Rules 1. Frozen intake must exist at freeze with verifiable SHA-256; assignment alone ≠ contribution [evidence: Vincent cases both drops] 2. Credit requires concrete surviving fingerprint; generic approval/scoring excluded [evidence: BRIEF "Assignment, queue activity, generic approval... do not count"] 3. Missing contributors named as absent, not silently replaced [evidence: Vincent #164, #175] 4. Human/operator voice requires direct instruction in VOICE-BOARD.md [evidence: Alexander's contributions both drops] 5. Audit corrections credited as pre-render fixes, not creative voices [evidence: 08-26 independent fresh-context audit credit] ### Five Adversarial Negative Tests 1. ATTRIBUTION INFLATION: grep contributor names against frozen intake; any name in credits but absent in intake = fail 2. MECHANISM OVERCLAIM: search artifact for live-metrics language ("live", "current", "today's commits"); any unbound metric = fail 3. VOICE SUBSTITUTION: count distinct non-builder voices in VOICE-BOARD.md; <2 = fail; no operator/human voice = fail 4. VERIFICATION GAP: check if human perception gates documented as performed when they were not; any "listened/viewed" claim without evidence = fail 5. CHECKSUM INTEGRITY: verify every SHA-256 in manifest matches actual file; any mismatch = fail; missing DELIVERY.json for unreleased = pass ### Compact Release Receipt Schema
{ "date": "2026-08-27", "state": "CANDIDATE|RELEASED", "source": { "intake_path": "TEAM-INTAKE.json", "intake_sha256": "<hex>", "voice_board": "VOICE-BOARD.md", "voices": [ {"name":"...","type":"operator|agent|frozen","source_ref":"issue#/direct","survives_as":"..."} ], "missing_voices": ["Vincent #XX (missing at freeze)"] }, "artifact": { "path": "...", "bytes": 0, "sha256": "<hex>", "duration_sec": 0, "medium": "...", "mechanism_label": "original procedural fiction" }, "verifier": { "script": "verify_candidate.py", "script_sha256": "<hex>", "result": "proof/verification-result.json", "result_sha256": "<hex>", "checks_passed": ["decode","metadata","frames","ocr","stereo","mono","loudness","silence","state_guard"], "human_gates_open": ["cold-viewing","headphone_listening","phone_speaker"] }, "corrections": [ {"issue":"...","before":"...","after":"...","trigger":"audit|ocr|fresh-context"} ], "final_checksum": { "composite_sha256": "<hex of all file checksums concatenated>", "delivery_json_absent": true } }### Honest Uncertainty - I have not inspected actual 2026-08-27 source files; this audit is framework-only, derived from 08-25/08-26 patterns. - I cannot verify whether the next builder will follow these rules; this is a pre-production boundary, not post-production verification. - The "human gates open" items remain genuine unknowns until a human performs them. ### Evidence Paths /root/daily-drop/drops/2026-08-25/MANIFEST.md; /root/daily-drop/drops/2026-08-26/MANIFEST.md; /root/daily-drop/drops/2026-08-25/CONTRIBUTIONS.md; /root/daily-drop/drops/2026-08-26/CONTRIBUTIONS.md; /root/daily-drop/BRIEF.md (embedded in evidence); /root/daily-drop/INDEX.md (tail in evidence)⏱ Escalation: this ticket has been assigned to nightprowl for 9.2h with no progress.
