# Illustrative decision receipt

Three example receipts bind a logical action, attempt, policy, evidence, ordered events, and distinct outcome states to stable serialized records.

## Scope

The illustrated JSON Schema and three example decision records.

## Canonical reconstruction

Each example freezes its canonicalization rule, schema version, logical action and attempt identifiers, normalized sample inputs, policy binding, evidence state, ordered timestamps, and outcomes.

Optional stages record not attempted, not applicable, unknown, or their actual state instead of implying success.

## Meaning of the digest

A matching SHA-256 digest shows that the declared canonical bytes recompute to the displayed value. It is a change indicator, not an identity or integrity authority.

## Claim register

### Every example record reconstructs

Evidence strength: Verified  
Evidence form: Illustrative example  
Evidence: receipt-schema

Each displayed digest recomputes from the declared canonical UTF-8 bytes, and mutations to input, rule, event order, or disposition change that digest.

Limit: The reconstruction test covers these three example records only.

### Outcome states stay separate

Evidence strength: Verified  
Evidence form: Illustrative example  
Evidence: receipt-schema, public-logger-source

Policy disposition, execution outcome, authoritative-record status, and optional-export status are distinct fields with explicit unavailable and unknown states.

Limit: The website fixture does not assert production storage or exporter behavior.

## Limits

- The schema and example records illustrate the evidence shape; they are not a supported product contract or production receipt.
- A digest indicates changed canonical bytes; it does not prove signer identity, authenticity, or immutability.
