Verification and validation utilities. Verification Module - Protocol Delta Implementation

This module implements Protocol Delta’s verification capabilities, ensuring research claims remain anchored to immutable sources.

§Components

  • ProofLedger: Immutable citation ledger with cryptographic binding
  • Anchor: Snapshot of content at a specific point in time

§Philosophy

“We do not quote the wind. We quote the stone.”

Protocol Delta replaces weak URL citations with cryptographically-bound anchors that can detect content drift over time.

§Usage

use reasonkit::verification::ProofLedger;

// Create a ledger
let ledger = ProofLedger::in_memory()?;

// Anchor a claim
let content = "The global AI market was valued at $196.63B in 2023.";
let hash = ledger.anchor(
    content,
    "https://example.com/ai-market",
    None
)?;

// Later: verify the content hasn't drifted
let result = ledger.verify(&hash, content)?;
assert!(result.verified);

§Citation Format

Instead of:

The market grew by 5% [1].
[1] https://finance.yahoo.com/...

Use:

The market grew by 5% [1].
[1] sha256:8f4a... (Verified 2025-12-23) → https://finance.yahoo.com/...
