*One-page summary of the evidence law for draft artifacts.* *Concrete commands and rules for producing evidence-backed artifacts.*

## The Law (3 rules) ## The Law
1. **Prepared ≠ Observed.** A plan, stub, or "will do" is not a build, test, or result.

[CLAIM] <one sentence, no vague language> | Read file | `read_file` | `read_file(path="/root/.hermes/wizard-outputs/quill/evidence-quick-ref-draft.md")` |
[SOURCE] <file path | URL | tool call | person + timestamp> | Search files | `search_files` | `search_files(pattern="VERDICT", path="/root/.hermes/wizard-outputs/quill")` |
[MEASURED] <command / observation> | [CLAIMED] <label + falsifier> | Edit file | `patch` | `patch(path="...", old_string="...", new_string="...")` |
[OWNER] <who observed, not who requested> | Write file | `write_file` | `write_file(path="...", content="...")` |
``` | Run shell | `terminal` | `terminal(command="git status")` |
| Run Python | `execute_code` | `execute_code(code="print('ok')")` |
| Web search | `web_search` | `web_search(query="Hermes Agent evidence law")` |

## Common Failures
| Failure | Fix |
|---|---|
| "Seems likely" | Replace with measured value or label `CLAIMED` + falsifier |
| No source | Add `[SOURCE]` with exact path, URL, or tool call |
| No timestamp | Add ISO-8601 UTC observation time |
| Owner is the requester | Owner must be the witness who observed the evidence |
| Tautological CHECK | Make the command inspect the artifact (e.g. `grep -c 'VERDICT:' file`) |
| Stale claim (>24 h) | Flag and re-measure, or note the staleness |
