Historical-coordinate notice (added 2026-08-27): This page records the tagged
v0.1.0 release and does not describe the current architecture. Current specification
names are VSTD-1, VSTD-2, VSTD-3, and VSTD-Graph-1. VSTD-0.1,
VSTD-0.2, VSTD-3.0, and VSTD-DATA-0.1 remain frozen receipt wire
identifiers because issued artifacts must stay readable; they are not current standard
names. The tag and attached assets remain unchanged. References below to the historical
conformance workflow name identify a repository job, not an earned VSTD conformance
result. See the current identifier map.

Claim boundary

A passing VSTD result is relative to its identified subject, verification surface, mechanism, bound evidence, trust roots, and horizons. It does not by itself prove complete real-world provenance, legal rights, empirical truth, general AI safety, organizer adoption, or competition standing.
