manifest & integrity seal
The archive, sealed
Every file in this build session, hashed and chained. Each entry's chain hash folds in the one before it, so altering any file breaks the chain from that point on — the head seal below is a single fingerprint over the whole set.

how to verify this seal
1. For each file in order, compute sha256(file) — it must equal the sha256 line.
2. Compute chain = sha256(prev_chain + file_sha256), starting from 64 zeros.
3. The final chain value must equal the head seal above. If any file changed, the chain diverges from that file onward — and the head won't match. Verified re-computable: this seal validated clean at build (2026-07-22T15:42:24Z).
stamp key — LIT: measured, verified, settled · LIT+AMBER: verified core with flagged soft claims · SUPERSEDED: retained for lineage, replaced by a later version. The chain is a real tamper-evidence structure (sha256), not decoration — a single flipped byte is detectable. machine-readable form: manifest.json
