Trust

Show the source.
Show the decision.

Trust comes from what the system can show: the source, the calculation, the decision, and the receipt.

Evidence ledger

Six links that should never disappear.

Source

Invoice, lot, recipe, policy, and provider references retain their identity.

Attached or unavailable

Calculation

Deterministic math is separated from an estimated business interpretation.

Deterministic or estimated

Authority

A named manager can approve, edit, reject, or ignore a consequential action.

Needs review or manager decided

Decision

Before and after values, limits, actor, and time are recorded.

Session receipt

Receipt

Approval and audit references stay linked to the source context.

Created or failed safely

Boundary

The iPhone talks to Dynamic.ly Backend; provider authority and disabled writes remain explicit.

Authority and receipt

A decision receipt is not an outcome claim.

The example records who approved what and which audit reference was created. The projected business impact remains unmeasured.

Audit

Success, edits, and safe failures share one evidence vocabulary.

Actor, time, reference, and state remain readable. An integration failure is shown as a failure and never upgraded to success.
