Stage297: Verification Report Package

Overview

Stage297 introduces a submission-ready verification report package built on top of:

• Stage289 Verification API
• Stage296 Dashboard & Analytics
• SQLite persistence
• Export functionality

This stage transforms verification results into a portable, auditable, and reproducible report package.

---

What This Stage Adds

1. Report Package Generation

Each verification result can now be exported as:

• JSON report
• HTML report
• SHA-256 digest

This enables:

• External submission
• Audit trails
• Independent verification

---

2. Dashboard Integration

Verification results are aggregated into:

• Total count
• Accept / Reject ratio
• Upstream health status
• Trust score distribution

---

3. Fail-Closed Enforcement

If upstream verification fails:

• The system marks result as invalid
• Report generation is blocked or flagged

---

4. Upstream API Integration

Verification is delegated to:

Stage289 API: https://stage289.onrender.com/api/verify

---

Architecture

User Input ↓ Stage297 UI ↓ Stage289 API (Verification) ↓ SQLite Storage ↓ Dashboard Aggregation ↓ Report Package (JSON / HTML / SHA256)

---

Report Package Structure

Example:

report/ ├── report.json ├── report.html └── report.sha256

---

What This Stage Proves

• Verification results can be packaged deterministically
• Reports can be externally submitted and verified
• System supports audit-grade traceability
• Upstream dependency health is observable

---

Trust Model

• Integrity → SHA-256
• Execution → CI / API verification
• Identity → Upstream verification
• Time → (future extension)

---

Future Direction

• Signed report packages (GPG / Sigstore)
• Timestamp anchoring (OpenTimestamps / Bitcoin)
• External audit integration (OpenSSF alignment)
• SaaS report submission endpoint
