Accountability
Audit and Provenance
Audit and provenance describe the information needed to inspect how a consequential AI evaluation was framed, what source material informed it, and who remained accountable for the result.
What a traceable record contains
The framework describes recording the request, context, sources, assumptions, TIS, HAI, SRQ, ethical conflicts, alternatives, selected outcome, reason, timestamp, and audit-chain fields. EthosGate’s product model is designed around preserving review context rather than presenting an unexplained score.
Source boundary
Canonical Conscience by Design material is identified separately from EthosGate implementation logic, model output, organization policy, and a human reviewer’s judgment. This distinction prevents an implementation assumption from being presented as an original framework statement.
The integrated corpus reference is pinned to a specific public repository revision, with attribution and license information available on the public sources page.
What is not promised
This page does not claim immutable evidence storage for every use, a completed third-party audit, or cryptographic verification beyond the capabilities demonstrated by the deployed implementation. Records still depend on correct inputs and responsible use.
