Proof of Intent & Verification
Review evidence, outcomes, and memory updates before work is accepted.
Proof of Intent is the verification layer that connects a company request to the work that came back.
It is not a confidence score and it is not a vague summary. It is a structured record showing what was requested, who or what handled it, what evidence was produced, what was reviewed, and what should be remembered.
Verification primitives
A proof bundle can include:
- Original intent: The request, requester, permission scope, and acceptance criteria.
- Assignment trail: The human, agent, model, or tool path used.
- Evidence artifacts: Files, screenshots, reports, receipts, task records, or source-backed notes.
- Review status: Approved, rejected, blocked, or returned for changes.
- Memory update: What the company system should remember after completion.
- Report-back: The final answer returned to the requester.
The rule: evidence over trust
A delegated result is not complete because an agent says it is complete. It is complete when the company can inspect the proof, compare it with the intent, and decide whether the work satisfies the standard.
