Verifiable Execution
Can a verifiable execution record prove that an agent followed a prescribed workflow sequence?
Yes, the record contains the exact order of signed steps, enabling comparison against a required workflow. Each step is hashed and linked to its predecessor, so any deviation in sequence is visible. However, the record only reflects what the agent actually did; it cannot prove that the agent’s logic would always follow the workflow under all conditions. It is evidence of that specific run, not a guarantee of perpetual compliance.

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.
