Evidence

Purpose

This document defines the canonical evidence system for AI Literate.

It specifies:

• What constitutes admissible evidence
• How evidence is logged
• How evidence is classified
• How evidence may be consumed by downstream governance systems

This document does not interpret evidence.
This document does not make decisions.
This document defines admissibility only.

Downstream systems (e.g. pricing governance, curriculum validation, authority claims) may reference this document but may not override it.
