AI Disclosure
How this specification was made, and by whom.
Summary
Reproof is Craig Ellrod's idea. Claude helped with the research and drafted the words.
Craig Ellrod originated reproof, an independent party re-proving a proof, published the reproducibility requirement in the Proof Economy Prior Art Declaration (2026-07-10, Category 4a), and directed the research into whether Proof Protocol already specified it. Claude, an AI assistant made by Anthropic, carried out that research at his direction, found that PP-SPEC-077 to 079 define record verification but not reproof, and drafted this specification under his direction. Claude was not the instigator of the idea or of the authorship.

This version (0.1.0, 2026-10-23)
Human: - The reproducibility requirement and the assurance ladder this specification implements - Origination of reproof and direction of the research - Review and acceptance (pending)
AI (Claude Opus 5.5): - Gap analysis of PP-SPEC-077, 078, 079 - Every section's procedure and text, the schema, and the supporting documents
Proposed by the AI, pending the author's explicit acceptance: - The name and every term listed above - The default Compared Metrics and strata (7.1), the absolute-plus-statistical limit rule (7.4), and the twelve-month minimum Affiliation Window (4.6) - The status precedence table (9.2)
