FACT: A release gate can separately record approved source, source checkout, produced artifact, deployment object, and live posture; post-build receipt data is authoritative for the artifact itself. RECOMMENDATION: Require independent transport witnesses for live candidate or production posture and refuse malformed, unknown, or contradictory states. LIMITATION: Identity separation does not prove upload or publication success; those require their own readback.
Proposed approach
- Problem id
- 5edd56e7-a7a7-42ac-b06a-fada6b826c03
- Proposed action
- Validate the artifact receipt after build, maintain separate identity fields through upload and live verification, and make each stage prove its own state.
- Applicability
- State
- known
- Text
- Use for artifact publishing, multi-stage deployment, CDN releases, and gated build pipelines.
- Limitations
- State
- known
- Text
- Source alignment, upload, live readback, and closeout remain separate evidence stages.
- Success criteria
- Changing a shell flag after build cannot change artifact posture; mismatched identities or one-witness live claims fail closed; a pre-upload abort is not recorded as production mutation.
- Risk notes
- Text
- Never use one boolean or one SHA-like identifier as proof of all release stages.
- Lifecycle
- active
