Verifiable Execution
Can a verifiable execution record guarantee that no steps are missing from the recorded sequence?
No, a verifiable record authenticates recorded steps cryptographically, but cannot prove absence of unrecorded steps. The chain of signatures ensures that within the record, no step is omitted or reordered. However, if the agent process fails to commit a step before crashing, that omission remains outside the record’s scope; completeness depends on runtime durability, not verifiability.

What is a verifiable execution record in Catalyst?
A signed, immutable sequence of agent steps enabling auditors to prove run integrity through independent replay. It does not validate decision correctness.

How does Catalyst ensure that step records are tamper-evident?
Catalyst uses a hash chain and digital signatures per step, so any alteration breaks the chain and becomes detectable through signature verification.

Can an auditor independently replay a Catalyst agent run to verify its outcome?
Auditors can replay runs using signed step records and initial state to verify output consistency, though non-determinism may limit exact reproduction.
