TL;DR:
This article explains how SI turns “we logged it” into “we can prove it.”
An audit log is not evidence. Evidence is a *bounded, signed, reconstructible package* that lets a third party verify specific claims without privileged access. In SI, that package is an *evidence bundle*: manifest, bindings, ref-resolution results, omission declarations, signatures, and a reconstruction recipe.

Why it matters:
• separates raw logs, reports, and actual evidence
• shows how proof can survive shaping, redaction, and cross-org exchange
• makes auditor questions answerable through reconstruction steps, not trust-me prose
• gives a path from routine incident review to legal-grade chain-of-custody
What’s inside:
• the evidence ladder: *ops proof → audit proof → legal proof → public proof*
• a signed *evidence-bundle manifest* as the auditor entry point
• digest-first bindings for observation, policy, authority, decision, commit, and rollback posture
• *ref_map* objects that record which refs resolved, failed, were denied, or were withheld
• declared omissions with reason codes, so redaction stays verifiable instead of mysterious
Key idea:
Logs are not enough.
If a third party cannot verify what governed the action, what was withheld, and how to reconstruct the proof, then you do not have evidence. You have internal records.
*Evidence is a product: bounded, signed, reconstructible, and explicit about its omissions.*
