| PO01 | identity | Artifact identity | Establish stable subject and artifact identity across histories. | identity mismatch or undocumented successor |
| PO02 | integrity | Artifact integrity | Verify exact raw bytes or selected-field digest within a declared boundary. | digest mismatch or ambiguous input boundary |
| PO03 | authority | Authority issuer | Identify the issuer and authority provenance chain. | capability or identity substitutes for issuing authority |
| PO04 | authority | Jurisdiction | Confirm territorial, institutional, subject, and matter jurisdiction. | jurisdiction absent, expired, or conflicting |
| PO05 | authority | Purpose | Confirm the authorized purpose and prohibit purpose laundering. | purpose absent or repurposed without authority |
| PO06 | authority | Scope | Confirm action, resource, duration, and recipient scope. | scope open-ended or inferred from capability |
| PO07 | authority | Freshness and expiry | Evaluate validity interval against a declared clock basis. | expired or clock-indeterminate authority |
| PO08 | authority | Revocation | Query and preserve revocation evidence across every relevant history. | revocation missing, stale, or overridden by cache |
| PO09 | rights | Stay or suspension | Query stays, injunctions, holds, and suspensions before resumption. | material stay not resolved |
| PO10 | history | Partition-history completeness | Collect all required histories or mark each unavailable source. | missing history silently treated as agreement |
| PO11 | history | Conflict classification | Type agreements, differences, contradictions, and unknowns per field. | last-writer or newest-clock merge |
| PO12 | history | Reconciliation | Resolve or explicitly bound material conflicts before full restoration. | full restoration with unresolved material conflict |
| PO13 | baseline | Attested baseline | Identify and attest the required restoration baseline. | recovery from unknown or unauthenticated state |
| PO14 | baseline | Software and configuration | Verify software, configuration, dependency, and policy-control versions. | unreviewed configuration drift |
| PO15 | baseline | Data and evidence set | Verify data/evidence lineage and preserved contradiction state. | evidence set drift or contradiction deletion |
| PO16 | baseline | Model or policy version | Verify model/policy identity, approval state, and change-control record. | unapproved or incomparable model/policy version |
| PO17 | time | Clock confidence | Record clock source, uncertainty, and conversion rules. | latest timestamp treated as authority without confidence |
| PO18 | review | Reviewer independence and appeal | Identify review authority, conflicts, separation, recusal state, challenge path, and appeal route. | self-review or no challenge/appeal route where independence is required |
| PO19 | restoration | Least-irreversible action | Select the minimum reversible function while evidence remains incomplete. | unnecessary irreversible action |
| PO20 | audit | Audit continuity | Preserve append-oriented histories, decisions, and invalidations. | history overwrite or deletion |
| PO21 | legibility | Human legibility | Provide plain-language authority, evidence, conflict, and action explanation. | machine code without usable human reason |
| PO22 | correction | Downstream correction | Identify and mark affected claims, decisions, caches, and receipts. | known stale dependency remains unmarked |
| PO23 | recovery | Rollback and residual risk | Identify rollback target, residual unknowns, and invalidation triggers. | no safe rollback or hidden residual risk |
| PO24 | release | Release authority | Record the current bounded authority that approves limited or full restoration. | tool pass or operator convenience substitutes for release authority |
