Use when the user wants a TYPED, FINGERPRINTED, IMMUTABLE evidence artifact about a Kubernetes resource — the Verify verb group of cub-scout (the receipt capability shipped in #446). Natural phrasing: "produce a receipt that this is in compliance", "give me an attestation that the cluster matches Git", "I need a verifiable record for the audit trail", "build a receipt verifying no manual edits since deploy", "verify deploy/api against source-truth and save the artifact…

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

# scout-verify

The Verify verb group of cub-scout. Produces typed, fingerprinted, immutable evidence artifacts — **receipts** — wrapping cub-scout's existing field-level evidence into a verifiable record CI/CD gates, audit trails, postmortems, and acceptance-judge tooling can attach to a decision and later re-check for tampering.

> A **receipt** is a stamped, hand-offable record of one verification: an in-toto Statement v1 envelope around a verdict, evidence, omissions, and optional upstream receipt references. Its **proof** is the verifiable integrity property created by the fingerprint: SHA-256 over RFC 8785 canonical JSON of the full Statement, with only `predicate.fingerprint` removed before hashing. Any third party can recompute that fingerprint to confirm the receipt has not been edited since it was stamped. That is tamper-evidence, not producer authentication or formal proof of truth. A receipt without proof is a claim; a receipt with proof is evidence.

Receipts are HISTORICAL records. Updates produce new receipts; old ones never mutate.

## When to use

Explicit phrasings:

- "Produce a receipt that deploy/api is in compliance"

How to install

The exact contents, by fingerprint
mdr add confighub/cub-scout/scout-verify@sha256:2df9bcbd6e378876

The line at the top of this page pins the label git:20260926.4c4b67c, 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.
