# Proof Trail

> How BRIK64 records the evidence path behind an engineering statement.

Proof Trail is the evidence path behind a BRIK64 statement.

It answers: what artifact was inspected, which command produced it, which version ran, which hash identifies the output, and what scope the result covers.

## Typical Trail

```text theme={null}
requirement
-> PCD source
-> command invocation
-> generated artifact
-> hash or manifest
-> report
-> evidence status
```

## What To Record

* Requirement or issue being addressed.
* Source files involved.
* CLI command and version.
* Generated PCD, Polymer or report path.
* Hash or manifest path when available.
* Human review notes.
* Evidence status for the inspected scope.

## Review Context

A useful proof trail names the requirement, source, command, output, hash or manifest, evidence status and remaining assumptions.

## Important Boundary

A badge, label or filename is not enough. The trail must point to the supporting artifact and explain the scope it covers.
