28
+ source, and configuration files.
29
+
30
+ "Object" form shall mean any form resulting from mechanical
31
+ transformation or translation of a Source form, including but
32
+ not limited to compiled object code, generated documentation,
33

34
+
35
+ "Work" shall mean the work of authorship, whether in Source or
36
+ Object form, made available under the License, as indicated by a
37
+ copyright notice that is included in or attached to the work
38
+ (an example is provided in the Appendix below).
39
+
40
+ "Derivative Works" shall mean any work, whether in Source or Object
41
+ form, that is based on (or derived from) the Work and for which the
42
+ editorial revisions, annotations, elaborations, or other modifications
43
+ represent, as a whole, an original work of authorship. For the purposes
44
+ of this License, Derivative Works shall not include works that remain
45
+ separable from, or merely link (or bind by name) to the interfaces of,
46
+ the Work and Derivative Works thereof.
47
+
48
+ "Contribution" shall mean any work of authorship, including
49
+ the original version of the Work and any modifications or additions
50
+ to that Work or Derivative Works thereof, that is intentionally
51
+ submitted to Licensor for inclusion in the Work by the copyright owner
52
+ or by an individual or Legal Entity authorized to submit on behalf of
53
+ the copyright owner. For the purposes of this definition, "submitted"
54
+ means any form of electronic, verbal, or written communication sent
55
+ to the Licensor or its representatives, including but not limited to
56
+ communication on electronic mailing lists, source code control systems,
57
+ and issue tracking systems that are managed by, or on behalf of, the
58
+ Licensor for the purpose of discussing and improving the Work, but

+ excluding communication that is conspicuously marked or otherwise
60
+ designated in writing by the copyright owner as "Not a Contribution."
61
+
62
+ "Contributor" shall mean Licensor and any individual or Legal Entity
63
+ on behalf of whom a Contribution has been received by Licensor and
64
+ subsequently incorporated within the Work.
65
+
66
+ 2. Grant of Copyright License. Subject to the terms and conditions of
67
+ this License, each Contributor hereby grants to You a perpetual,
68
+ worldwide, non-exclusive, no-charge, royalty-free, irrevocable
69
+ copyright license to reproduce, prepare Derivative Works of,
70
+ publicly display, publicly perform, sublicense, and distribute the
71
+ Work and such Derivative Works in Source or Object form.
72
+
73
+ 3. Grant of Patent License. Subject to the terms and conditions of
74
+ this License, each Contributor hereby grants to You a perpetual,

76
+ (except as stated in this section) patent license to make, have made,
77
+ use, offer to sell, sell, import, and otherwise transfer the Work,
78
+ where such license applies only to those patent claims licensable
79
+ by such Contributor that are necessarily infringed by their
80
+ Contribution(s) alone or by combination of their Contribution(s)
81
+ with the Work to which such Contribution(s) was submitted. If You
82
+ institute patent litigation against any entity (including a
83
+ cross-claim or counterclaim in a lawsuit) alleging that the Work
84
+ or a Contribution incorporated within the Work constitutes direct
85
+ or contributory patent infringement, then any patent licenses
86
+ granted to You under this License for that Work shall terminate
87
+ as of the date such litigation is filed.
88
+
89
+ 4. Redistribution. You may reproduce and distribute copies of the
90
+ Work or Derivative Works thereof in any medium, with or without
91
+ modifications, and in Source or Object form, provided that You
92
+ meet the following conditions:
93
+
94
+ (a) You must give any other recipients of the Work or
95
+ Derivative Works a copy of this License; and
96
+
97
+ (b) You must cause any modified files to carry prominent notices
98
+ stating that You changed the files; and
99
+
100
+ (c) You must retain, in the Source form of any Derivative Works
101
+ that You distribute, all copyright, patent, trademark, and
102
+ attribution notices from the Source form of the Work,
103
+ excluding those notices that do not pertain to any part of
104
+ the Derivative Works; and
105
+
106
+ (d) If the Work includes a "NOTICE" text file as part of its
107
+ distribution, then any Derivative Works that You distribute must
108
+ include a readable copy of the attribution notices contained
109
+ within such NOTICE file, excluding those notices that do not
110
+ pertain to any part of the Derivative Works, in at least one
111
+ of the following places: within a NOTICE text file distributed
112
+ as part of the Derivative Works; within the Source form or
113
+ documentation, if provided along with the Derivative Works; or,
114
+ within a display generated by the Derivative Works, if and
115
+ wherever such third-party notices normally appear. The contents
116
+ of the NOTICE file are for informational purposes only and
117
+ do not modify the License. You may add Your own attribution
118
+ notices within Derivative Works that You distribute, alongside
119
+ or as an addendum to the NOTICE text from the Work, provided
120
+ that such additional attribution notices cannot be construed
121
+ as modifying the License.
122
+
123
+ You may add Your own copyright statement to Your modifications and
124
+ may provide additional or different license terms and conditions
125
+ for use, reproduction, or distribution of Your modifications, or
126
+ for any such Derivative Works as a whole, provided Your use,
127
+ reproduction, and distribution of the Work otherwise complies with
128
+ the conditions stated in this License.
129
+
130
+ 5. Submission of Contributions. Unless You explicitly state otherwise,
131
+ any Contribution intentionally submitted for inclusion in the Work
132
+ by You to the Licensor shall be under the terms and conditions of
133
+ this License, without any additional terms or conditions.
134
+ Notwithstanding the above, nothing herein shall supersede or modify
135
+ the terms of any separate license agreement you may have executed
136
+ with Licensor regarding such Contributions.
137
+
138
+ 6. Trademarks. This License does not grant permission to use the trade
139
+ names, trademarks, service marks, or product names of the Licensor,
140
+ except as required for reasonable and customary use in describing the
141
+ origin of the Work and reproducing the content of the NOTICE file.
142
+
143
+ 7. Disclaimer of Warranty. Unless required by applicable law or
144
+ agreed to in writing, Licensor provides the Work (and each
145
+ Contributor provides its Contributions) on an "AS IS" BASIS,
146
+ WITHOUT WARRANTIES OR CONDITIONS OF ANY KIND, either express or
147
+ implied, including, without limitation, any warranties or conditions
148
+ of TITLE, NON-INFRINGEMENT, MERCHANTABILITY, or FITNESS FOR A
149
+ PARTICULAR PURPOSE. You are solely responsible for determining the
150
+ appropriateness of using or redistributing the Work and assume any
151
+ risks associated with Your exercise of permissions under this License.
152
+
153
+ 8. Limitation of Liability. In no event and under no legal theory,
154
+ whether in tort (including negligence), contract, or otherwise,
155
+ unless required by applicable law (such as deliberate and grossly
156
+ negligent acts) or agreed to in writing, shall any Contributor be
157
+ liable to You for damages, including any direct, indirect, special,
158
+ incidental, or consequential damages of any character arising as a
159
+ result of this License or out of the use or inability to use the
160
+ Work (including but not limited to damages for loss of goodwill,
161
+ work stoppage, computer failure or malfunction, or any and all
162
+ other commercial damages or losses), even if such Contributor
163
+ has been advised of the possibility of such damages.
164
+
165
+ 9. Accepting Warranty or Additional Liability. While redistributing
166
+ the Work or Derivative Works thereof, You may choose to offer,
167
+ and charge a fee for, acceptance of support, warranty, indemnity,
168
+ or other liability obligations and/or rights consistent with this
169
+ License. However, in accepting such obligations, You may act only
170
+ on Your own behalf and on Your sole responsibility, not on behalf
171
+ of any other Contributor, and only if You agree to indemnify,
172
+ defend, and hold each Contributor harmless for any liability
173
+ incurred by, or claims asserted against, such Contributor by reason
174
+ of your accepting any such warranty or additional liability.

+
23
+ **Engineering invariants for AI-built software.**
24
+
25
+ > **INVARA upgrades vibe-coded software into verifiable, engineering-grade
26
+ > software.**
27
+
28
+ You asked an agent to do a piece of work. It says it is done. INVARA decides
29
+ that independently, from exit codes and file bytes, and writes the verdict into
30
+ a hash chain so the answer cannot be quietly revised later.
31
+
32
+ **The agent's own report is not an input.** There is no field in a contract
33
+ where anything can assert that the work is finished.

+

52
+
53
+ Status: **v0.1 / Alpha.** It is dogfooded daily and has not been sold. It is
54
+ not autonomous authorization and not an enterprise compliance control.
55
+
56

57
+
58
+ ## What this is not
59
+
60
+ Read this part before the install line. It is short on purpose, and the word
61
+ that carries the promise above is *verifiable* — not *correct*.
62
+
63
+ > **INVARA does not prove software correctness.**
64
+ > **It verifies declared constraints against observable evidence.**
65
+
66
+ Specifically:
67
+
68
+ - **It does not inspect your codebase.** It never asks whether the code is
69
+ good, whether the architecture holds, or whether the tests are the right
70
+ tests. Stack a new floor on junk and, if this floor was built to the
71
+ declared spec, the verdict is `PASS`.
72
+ - **It does not find bugs.** A completion check that runs your suite is only as
73
+ strong as your suite. INVARA reports the exit code; it does not have an
74
+ opinion about coverage.
75
+ - **It does not decide what should have been promised.** You write the
76
+ contract. A weak contract earns a weak `PASS`, and the contract is stored
77
+ verbatim so anyone can see how weak it was.
78
+ - **It is not a sandbox.** Completion checks are commands and they run with
79
+ your permissions. Do not seal a contract you have not read.
80
+ - **It does not judge intent.** `intent` is prose; nothing checks that the
81
+ work matched it. The checks are what bind.
82
+ - **It is not an AI code generator and not an LLM code-review bot.** There is
83
+ no model anywhere in the verdict path.
84
+
85
+ The narrow claim, which is what the machine actually does:
86
+
87
+ > **It decides, independently, whether this change kept the promises it made.**
88
+
89
+ ---
90
+
91
+ ## Install and first verdict, in five minutes
92
+
93
+ Nothing to configure. No API key, no service, no account. Python 3.12+.
94
+
95
+ ```bash
96
+ uvx --from git+https://github.com/Jujitae/invara invara list
97
+ ```
98
+
99
+ or, to keep it:
100
+
101
+ ```bash
102
+ pip install "invara @ git+https://github.com/Jujitae/invara"
103
+ ```
104
+
105
+ The package declares **zero runtime dependencies**, so this pulls only the
106
+ standard library.
107
+
108
+ From a checkout it is the same program, but install it first — the source
109
+ lives under `src/`, so a bare `python -m invara` in the repository root
110
+ finds nothing to run:
111
+
112
+ ```bash
113
+ pip install -e .
114
+ python -m invara list
115
+ ```
116
+
117
+ ### 1. Write the contract *before* the work
118
+
119
+ `task.json`, next to the repository you are about to change:
120
+
121
+ ```json
122
+ {
123
+ "task_id": "2026-08-17-tidy-the-parser",
124
+ "intent": "Speed up the CSV parser without changing what it accepts",
125
+ "constraints": [
126
+ {
127
+ "kind": "paths_unchanged",
128
+ "paths": ["tests/test_parser.py"],
129
+ "reason": "a speedup that edits its own test is not a speedup"
130
+ }
131
+ ],
132
+ "done_when": [
133
+ {
134
+ "id": "suite",
135
+ "command": ["python", "-m", "pytest", "-q"],
136
+ "expect_exit": 0,
137
+ "reason": "the whole suite"
138
+ }
139
+ ]
140
+ }
141
+ ```
142
+
143
+ ```bash
144
+ invara seal task.json
145
+ ```
146
+
147
+ Sealing takes the digests of the protected paths **now**, before anyone knows
148
+ what the verdict will be. That ordering is the entire guarantee.
149
+
150
+ ### 2. Do the work.
151
+
152
+ ### 3. Judge
153
+
154
+ ```bash
155
+ invara judge 2026-08-17-tidy-the-parser # dry run
156
+ invara judge 2026-08-17-tidy-the-parser --commit # record it
157
+ ```
158
+
159
+ ```
160
+ BLOCK: 1 protected path(s) changed: tests/test_parser.py: changed
161
+ (a speedup that edits its own test is not a speedup)
162
+ decided by: constraint_breaks
163
+ ```
164
+
165
+ That is the first verdict. Everything below is detail.
166
+
167
+ ---
168
+
169
+ ## The four verdicts
170
+
171
+ | Verdict | Meaning | Exit |
172
+ |---|---|---|
173
+ | `BLOCK` | A protected path changed, or a completion check failed | 1 |
174
+ | `UNVERIFIABLE` | A check could not be run at all. **Unchecked is not passed** | 2 |
175
+ | `HUMAN_REVIEW` | Machine checks passed; something was declared as needing eyes | 0 |
176
+ | `PASS` | Every check returned what it promised, every protected path is byte-identical | 0 |
177
+
178
+ Constraint breaks outrank everything. A run that touched what it promised not
179
+ to touch is not partially fine.
180
+
181
+ `BLOCK` is two rules wearing one word — a protected path that changed and a
182
+ check that came back wrong are not the same accusation. So the verdict also
183
+ records which rule decided it, named after the evidence it decided on
184
+ (`constraint_breaks`, `failed`, `unrunnable`, `needs_human`, `passed`), and
185
+ `judge` and `log` print it. Verdicts recorded before this existed do not have
186
+ one, and do not get one fitted after the fact.
187
+
188
+ ## Sealing refuses more than it accepts
189
+
190
+ `seal` will not write a contract that cannot fail the work. It refuses a task
191
+ with no completion condition, a condition with no command to check it, a
192
+ contract with no protected paths ("a task allowed to change anything cannot be
193
+ said to have respected anything"), a duplicate check id, a protected path that
194
+ does not exist, and — the one that matters most — a contract where **every**
195
+ condition defers to a person.
196
+
197
+ That last one is why this is not a rubber stamp: if the only evidence is
198
+ somebody saying yes, there is no contract.
199
+
200
+ ## Other commands
201
+
202
+ ```
203
+ invara list sealed tasks and their latest verdict
204
+ invara log <task_id> every verdict this task has ever had
205
+ invara show <task_id> the contract, exactly as sealed
206
+ invara chain rebuild both hash chains
207
+ ```
208
+
209
+ Verdicts live in `.runtime/verify.db` (`--db` to move it). A contract is sealed
210
+ once and judged many times; the history is append-only and chained.
211
+
212
+ ---
213
+
214
+ ## Determinism
215
+
216
+ Same repository state, same contract, same environment → same verdict. The
217
+ verdict is a function of file digests and command exit codes, and nothing else;
218
+ there is no model in the path and no clock in the decision.
219
+
220
+ Measured rather than asserted, 2026-08-17: contract
221
+ `2026-08-17-route-discovery` was judged twice, four minutes apart, against an
222
+ unchanged tree — 7 checks each including a 2,021-test suite. Both runs returned
223
+ the same status and the same reason string, and both rows are in the chain:
224
+
225
+ ```
226
+ $ invara log 2026-08-17-route-discovery
227
+ 2026-08-17 09:17 UTC PASS
228
+ 7 check(s) passed and 6 protected path(s) are unchanged
229
+ 2026-08-17 09:21 UTC PASS
230
+ 7 check(s) passed and 6 protected path(s) are unchanged
231
+ ```
232
+
233
+ Run that yourself on your own contract before you trust it on ours.
234
+
235
+ The word doing work there is **environment**. See the first failure story
236
+ below: a contract that passed locally and failed in CI was not
237
+ non-deterministic — it was two different environments, and INVARA reported
238
+ each one correctly. If you want the verdict to be reproducible, make the
239
+ completion commands reproducible.
240
+
241
+ ---
242
+
243
+ ## Failure stories
244
+
245
+ These are real, from building and using this tool. They are here because a
246
+ verification tool that only shows its successes is asking to be trusted on
247
+ exactly the grounds it tells you not to trust anything.
248
+
249
+ **Environment contamination.** A contract passed on the machine that wrote it
250
+ and failed in CI. The tree was clean; the *environment* was not.
251
+ `PYTHONIOENCODING` was set in the shell, child processes inherited it, and the
252
+ completion command only worked because of it. Verification runs now use
253
+ `env -u PYTHONIOENCODING`. Clean tree is not clean environment.
254
+
255
+ **A seal that broke itself.** A fresh clone rewrote a sealed ontology file to
256
+ CRLF on checkout, so its SHA-256 no longer matched. The file whose entire job

+ **The first verdict was `UNVERIFIABLE`, and it was correct.** A completion
261
+ command could not be found, because `subprocess` does not use `cwd` to resolve
262
+ the executable. The verdict was right and the tool was useless. Both facts are
263

265
+ **It did not pass the work that built it.** The first contract INVARA ever
266
+ sealed was the task of building it. It returned `UNVERIFIABLE`, then
267
+ `PASS`, then `PASS`. All three are still in `.runtime/verify.db`, and
268
+ `invara log` prints them.

+ ## Where it came from
273
+
274
+ The shape is lifted from a sibling engine in the same private repository:
275
+ seal the contract
276
+ before the evidence exists, refuse to create anything you cannot kill, score
277
+ only observed records, and chain the result. Change "world claim" to "agent's
278
+ work" and the same machine applies.
279
+
280
+ INVARA was built and is dogfooded inside a private working repository (WIE);
281
+ see [`PROVENANCE.md`](PROVENANCE.md) for what that means for this source.
