What a JEP event records
- J — Judgment
- An actor expressed or adopted a judgment.
- D — Delegation
- An actor declared a delegation within an explicit scope.
- T — Termination
- An actor declared a referenced target no longer eligible for future reliance.
- V — Verification
- An actor evaluated a referenced target under a declared scope and recorded the result.
Signature verification does not prove real-world identity, authorization or business completion.
