Internal Audit Report (2026)¶

Scope¶

• archive integrity guarantees
• inspection and recovery behavior
• verification, reporting, and safety boundaries

Findings¶

Strengths¶

• strong integrity-first model
• explicit failure modes
• deterministic, machine-readable reporting direction
• unusually clear recovery honesty stance

Weaknesses¶

• some public-facing docs still mix product, research, and future-readiness framing
• machine-readable output contracts need clearer public boundaries
• provenance and reporting model need deeper formalization

Actions¶

• unify site language around salvage-oriented archive positioning
• expand assurance cross-links across public docs
• formalize output contracts and evidence model
• continue extending corruption and recovery test coverage

Conclusion¶

System aligns with published security principles. Remaining work is primarily boundary hardening and documentation rigor, not architectural reversal.
