CORRECTED_PUBLIC_EDITION

Corrected repository edition

/docs/long-term-memory/reports/cryptographic-official-record-standard-design.md

The corrected durable edition is stored at /docs/long-term-memory/reports/cryptographic-official-record-standard-design.md. The public route presents its governed correction record without exposing the blocked source body.

Correction summary

Rejected the statement that cryptographic verification is the sole authority establishing a record's legal legitimacy. Signatures establish bounded integrity and signer control; legal authority also depends on institutional competence, constitutional authorization, procedure, time, jurisdiction, and supersession. Replaced invented EORVS algorithm identifiers and mandatory cryptographic choices with a versioned profile and algorithm-agility requirements. Classified example law IDs, institutions, signatures, DIDs, timestamps, and status transitions as non-operative fixtures. Required canonical source text, accessible human representation, correction history, and clear treatment of unsigned or unverifiable records instead of treating ceremonial presentation as proof. Preserved planned and deprecated records as readable history while prohibiting execution based on those states.

Raw-source boundary

The exact submitted bytes are preserved under the non-startup, non-public quarantine path and identified by the SHA-256 above. Active memory points only to the corrected edition, doctrine, and correction record. This separation preserves provenance while preventing the submitted report from silently redefining ecosystem roles.
