Canonical Law

No proof, no evolution.
No eval, no propagation.
No rollback, no release.

What AEP-003 Standardizes

Atomic proof

One coherent evidence record for one machine-work fact, event, check, or decision.

Hashable packets

Deterministic canonical JSON and SHA-256 packet hashes for tamper-evident proof chains.

Docket composition

Many ProofPackets compose into an AEP-002 Evidence Docket.
