About this case

This case reconstructs the inherited-risk picture for acquisition_001 — the acquirer's tenant absorbed the acquired tenant under a full inheritance policy. The replay walks the acquired firm's pre-acquisition consequences and reports each as a structural fact the acquirer now carries: two loss consequences, one lawsuit, one regulatory action, and one operational failure. Aggregate exposure: $18.4M. The investigation asks one question — what did we just buy? — and does not assert disclosure, fault, or coverage. PE / M&A / acquiring-counsel diligence pattern.

Inherited Risk · show_inherited_risk(acquisition_001)

Inherited Risk Exposure — $18.4M

Acquisition acquisition_001 (full inheritance) — the acquirer absorbed 5 consequence(s) from tenant_acquired_44962d9b-25f5-5622-bd9a-98d5580bb8a2. Each is now structurally present on the acquirer's tenant at replay T.

Acquired ≠ Disclosed.The chain shows every consequence the acquirer now carries — that the obligation exists is a structural fact at replay T. Whether it was disclosed in the deal documents is a separate legal question.
Tab 1 · Verify evidence

Verify the evidence — independently, without H33

Replay at target T produces state_id 9581cc7b5cb7e29d48714c4b4be1c92cc1b0c2eb35357ba7d3be788fc9918add byte-identically. Confirm by running the verifier binary against the exported package (see Tab 8).

Decision lineage — what happened, in causal order

Lineage shows what happened, not whether it was right.
Tab 3 · Show responsibility chain

Responsibility chain — bound at decision time

Chain on the primary decision ():

primary_decision_id not specified in the descriptor.
Responsibility ≠ Liability.Naming a principal in the chain establishes a structural role at decision time; liability is a court / regulator determination.
Tab 4 · Show asset lineage

Asset lineage — Asset → Decisions → Loss → Claim

asset_id not specified in this case descriptor.
Asset ≠ Responsibility.The walk shows what touched the asset. Ownership is a legal status; responsibility is structural fact.
Tab 5 · Show model influence

Model influence — why the model produced the score it produced

primary_decision_id not specified.
Influence ≠ Causation.The chain establishes that the model's score depended on these features; it does NOT establish that those were the right features or that the threshold was fair.
Tab 6 · Reproduce decision

Reproduce decision — measured confidence, not aspirational

Reproducibility confidence: 0 / 100. Five components × 20 points each. See #167 Decision Reproducibility for the rubric.

Reproducibility ≠ Justification.The chain runs again the same way. That's not the same as saying it should have.
Tab 7 · Show reality gaps

Reality gaps — what changed without authorization?

0 gaps detected

0 Shadow Authority
0 Undocumented Delegation
0 Policy Bypass
0 Responsibility Drift
Policy ≠ Reality.The report names structural disagreements between policy and recorded reality. It does NOT name fault, intent, or correctness.
Tab 8 · Export evidence package

Export the evidence package — and verify it without H33

The evidence package bundles the canonical event log, the case summary, and a verification runbook. No H33 access required at any step.

How to verify independently (regulator runbook)
  1. Download the evidence package (button below).
  2. Build the verifier: cargo build --release --bin h33-independent-canonical-replay from the open-source scif-backend repo.
  3. Extract the tarball, then run:
    h33-independent-canonical-replay \
        --events-file events.json \
        --manifest-file manifest.json \
        --verbose
  4. Confirm the binary's reported state_id matches 9581cc7b5cb7e29d48714c4b4be1c92cc1b0c2eb35357ba7d3be788fc9918add.
  5. For cases under L9.1, add --public-keys-file public_keys.json --signatures-file signatures.json --verify-signatures. Pre-L9.1 cases (verification = Not Applicable) skip this step.

Phase C submission carries 8 entries: case_summary · verification_report · reconstruction_report · lineage_report · responsibility_report · finding_report · evidence_package.tar.gz · verifier_runbook. The submission is what a regulator opens; the evidence package is the substrate it cites.
Institutional Memory ≠ Legal Truth.The package preserves structural memory. Legal truth — verdicts, judgments, damages — remains the courts' determination.
Findings · what the evidence demonstrates

Findings — not raw evidence, the assertions the evidence supports

Regulators investigate FINDINGS — not raw evidence. Each finding below carries a claim, the evidence that supports it, the responsibility chain it implicates, the lineage it walks, and a status (open / investigating / substantiated / dismissed).

Asset ≠ Responsibility. Responsibility ≠ Liability. A finding's status is structural — what the evidence demonstrates — not a legal verdict. Liability is determined by courts and regulators.
Killer demo · the package was already in your possession

What happens if H33 disappears before you finish reviewing?

Imagine: this submission was delivered to your office. You begin review. Mid-review, H33 disappears — vendor failure, dissolution, sanctions, supply-chain compromise, whatever. The reviewing regulator has no live H33 channel, no support phone, no auth endpoint. The package on disk is all that remains.

  1. Package still verifies.
    h33-independent-canonical-replay is a standalone binary built from the open-source scif-backend repo. No DB. No SCIF. No network. The reported state_id matches 9581cc7b5cb7e29d48714c4b4be1c92cc1b0c2eb35357ba7d3be788fc9918add byte-identically.
  2. Responsibility still reconstructs.
    responsibility_report.json was derived from canonical events and ships inside submission.tar.gz. The chain at decision time is permanently recoverable.
  3. Lineage still reconstructs.
    lineage_report.json walks Decision → Asset → Loss → Claim directly on the events. Reproducible without any vendor surface.
  4. Verdict still reproducible.
    finding_report.json carries the claim + evidence_refs + responsibility_refs + lineage_refs. Every reference walks back to a signed canonical event in the embedded package.
Distinct from #12 (vendor dies) and #184 (customer dies) — here the package was already in the regulator's possession when H33 disappeared, and the entire review still completes. The category claim Phase C earns: a regulator can consume H33 evidence without H33.

Ask The Evidence — natural-language queries over signed evidence

The search architecture that ties the corpus together: Ask The Evidence → Search Twin → Replay Engine.

→ Look in responsibility_chain.approving_authority on the primary decision.
ask> Who could have approved this?
→ Filter active_grants at decision T by the required capability.
ask> What policy governed this?

ask> Who retained responsibility?
→ Decision.responsibility_chain — recorded at decision time, permanently recoverable.

ask> What evidence survives?
→ The canonical event log. Replayable byte-identically without H33 and without the dissolved firm.
