A verification bundle binds ten sub-claims. > Quote the Decision Receipt definition byte-identically or not at all: 'A Decision Receipt is a signed, replayable record of how a consequential decision was made, created at the moment it happens and independently verifiable afterwards.' > Tamper evidence is two checks together: a content edit leaves the Ed25519 signature valid (it covers the stored integrity hash) and is caught by the integrity check; rewriting the hash then fails the signature. Never claim the signature alone detects edits. # Declare a typed business input > Creates a new declared input, or reuses/redeclares an existing binding. Human-principal only for now — see FIELD_DECLARATION_HUMAN_ONLY. A BC-02 choice domain on the body is validated by the same validator the repository runs: a repeated code is refused 422 `DUPLICATE_CHOICE_CODE` (`details.duplicate_code`), and a malformed entry 422 `INVALID_CHOICE_SHAPE` (`details.choice_index`). The two are DIFFERENT faults and carry different codes. ## OpenAPI ````yaml /api/openapi.json post /v1/fields/declarations openapi: 3.1.0 info: title: MeshQu API description: >- Governance infrastructure for policy-aware AI decisions.
