Evidence contracts
ConformanceReport
ConformanceReport standardizes what validators report. It does not make unsupported validators exist and does not turn self-reported evidence into certification.
Status
Shared validator output format
Machine-readable rule results, summary counts, target version, profile, and overall outcome.
Capabilities
What this component covers.
- Named target specification and version
- Per-rule pass, fail, or skip results
- Profile and aggregate result
- Portable validation evidence
Use path
Make a scoped, versioned claim.
- Capture the exact validator name and version.
- Retain the report with the validated artifact.
- Describe manual checks separately; do not encode them as automated passes.
Evidence boundary
Declare only what the evidence supports.
This is the result format used by supported validators, not an independent certification service.
