🔏 Signed receipt rr_83422c6ae201b1fd073f6d69 · ed25519 · key rs-rcpt-2026-08 — this rating is tamper-evident; an agent gets the full signature from check_server and can verify it against the published key.

History observed

Every probe we made, oldest → newest (2 shown, 2026-08-30 → 2026-09-06). Green answered · amber answered-but-walled · red no useful answer. A gap in our cadence is a gap in coverage, not evidence about the server.

What kind of tools these are derived

Verification only means something relative to a tool's NATURE — an email-sender has no "true answer", a generator has no answer key. Classification evidence: classified from tool names/descriptions/annotations WE OBSERVED. What checking applies to each kind (the full methodology →):

naturetoolsmeaning what checking applies
retrieval-public11serves public factstruth-checkable against a public source — the V-ladder applies in full
action2changes the worldno true answer exists; we check the CONTRACT (destructive/read-only/idempotent declarations, error legibility) and never fire real actions

Harness readiness observed

Can an agent's harness pick this tool and call it correctly? Graded on the three things an agent reads — name, description, typed parameters. Band A — an agent can pick and call these reliably.

13 of 13 tools graded · 13 with a captured input schema. RS-008, Tier-1 — no domain knowledge, applies to any tool. “Alive” is not the same as “usable”.

Truth checks observed

Not yet confirmed — 1 attempt(s) currently unverifiable (rate limits, walls, or unmappable schemas — never counted against the server) · 0 disagreements.
