What changed

  • adds P-035 — Proof-carrying findings and replayable derivation certificates;
  • defines the trust boundary between source extraction, canonical facts, the inference engine, and a small independent verifier;
  • sketches a versioned certificate envelope and closed primitive rule vocabularies;
  • scopes the first implementation to PRG001 / Own.Progress;
  • records verifier failure semantics, determinism laws, delivery slices, acceptance criteria, non-goals, and open questions;
  • indexes P-035 in docs/proposals/README.md.

Why

Own.NET already emits human-readable evidence and ordered paths, but those are still produced by the same analyzer that computed the verdict. This proposal records a narrower and more defensible next step: selected deterministic findings may carry replayable derivation certificates checked against canonical facts by an independent bounded verifier.

The intended claim is verified derivation over canonical facts, not “formally proven arbitrary C# bug.”

Impact

Documentation only. No schemas, CLI behavior, diagnostics, verifier, or gates change in this PR.

Validation

  • reviewed the diff against the existing proposal structure;
  • branch is two commits ahead of main and touches only the new proposal plus the proposal index;
  • no code tests were run because this is a documentation-only design PR.
