abstract: >-
  Accountable Record is the language-neutral contract for information systems
  that must remain usable under persistent disagreement. It defines schemas,
  identifiers, entity-kind mappings, traits, claims, adoption levels, bundles,
  profiles, reports, and verification semantics for preserving distinctions
  among sources, entities, events, rules, scopes, contexts, transformations,
  interpretations, and provenance. The contract supports incremental adoption
  and trait-based verification without deciding truth, authority, legitimacy,
  obligation, enforcement, or domain correctness.
