InfraFabric adds a deterministic layer: **verifiable provenance** (traceability, signed artifacts, and replayable evidence bundles) so that high‑stakes actions and claims can be audited without trusting the operator. + +This dossier documents the **InfraFabric microlab**: a functioning single-shard proof‑of‑concept (≈3 months) that implements these primitives and ships real audit artifacts. + +### The Reviewer Map (Claims → Proofs → Limitations) + +| Core claim | Proof (artifacts) | Limitation (scope / boundary) | +|---|---|---| +| **A) Traceability is safety.** High‑stakes agents cannot be trusted without a verifiable history of what happened (request → retrieval → decision → output). | **IF.TTT + evidence bundles**: the IF.emotion trace protocol ships a portable tarball + manifest + verifier steps that a third party can run.
