Evidence contract

A number without context is not a result.

This page shows the information that belongs beside an observation. Values below are field labels and state examples—not live prices, rates, performance or recommendations.

Original evidence panel with provenance and freshness fields

Attached to every result

The evidence panel

  • SourceRequired

    Named provider and applicable attribution

  • ObservationRequired

    When the underlying value was observed

  • RequestedRequired

    When this view asked for it

  • UnitRequired

    Currency, percentage, index or another defined measure

  • CoverageRequired

    Expected, received and any missing observations

  • MethodRequired

    Window, costs, assumptions and version

An actual connected tool must populate these from verified provider and calculation state. This preview does not.

Failure is a state

Available. Partial. Stale. Unavailable.

  1. Available

    The required context is present and the observation is within its stated freshness rule.

  2. Partial

    Some expected coverage is missing and exactly what is absent remains visible.

  3. Stale

    The last known observation is labelled with its age; it is never presented as current.

  4. Unavailable

    No value or signal is invented. Selection and inputs remain recoverable for retry.
