Use when the app must prove who changed or accessed something, answer an auditor, verify the trail or choose [Auditable] vs [Audited] (Pragmatic.Audit, sealing, retention, NIS2 incidents). Erasure is pragmatic-use-privacy.

Collected from public GitHub. Every version is saved exactly as it was and never changes. Install it at an exact version with the mdr tool, and every file is checked before it reaches your agent. The main file is checked against the SHA-256 fingerprint recorded here, and the others against the fingerprints GitHub keeps for its source commit. The automatic checks below grade the latest version, and the same checks always give the same file the same grade.

What the file says

# Pragmatic Use Audit

**Covers:** Record who did what, on whose authority, with Pragmatic.Audit: an append-only, tamper-evident trail ([Audited], security and message events), verifying, sealing and retention, NIS2 incidents (Pragmatic.Incidents).

Two things are called "audit" and they are different:

| | `[Auditable]` | `[Audited]` |
|---|---|---|
| What | `CreatedAt/By`, `UpdatedAt/By` **on the row** | an entry per change **on the trail** |
| Answers | who last touched this row | everything that happened to it, in order, provably unaltered |
| Cost | four columns | a write per change, in the same transaction |

Most entities want `[Auditable]`. Put `[Audited]` on what somebody will ask about later: money,
permissions, personal data, decisions.

## The trail

- **Append-only and tamper-evident.** Entries are grouped into time segments; a sealed segment gets a
  Merkle root chained to the previous one. Verification reveals an altered row; it does not prevent one:
  that needs database permissions or WORM storage.
- **No personal values, ever.** An entry names the actor and the subject by **pseudonym** (`ActorRef`,

How to install

The exact contents, by fingerprint
mdr add pragmatic-design/pragmatic.design/pragmatic-use-audit@sha256:59db293129f0bb02

The line at the top of this page pins the label git:20261031.7fecbf3, which is what most people want. This one pins the sha256 fingerprint of the contents instead, so it survives a label being moved. Either way the exact version is written to mdr.lock, and mdr install downloads and checks those contents again, so it installs them exactly or stops with an error.
