   Title:   Settlement Evidence for Human-Approved Agent Payments

Abstract:

   This document defines a signed side artifact that records the
   observation, on a public ledger, of a payment authorization whose
   correlation value was committed before dispatch.  The artifact
   references the authorization record and the execution grant by hash
   and does not modify either.  It permits a Relying Party *that obtains
   ledger facts itself* to establish that a payment authorization
   bearing the correlation value *was consumed on the token contract and
   network the mandate itself committed to, transferring a stated value
   to a stated recipient*, and that the correlation value is
   recomputable from a specific authorization record, a specific single-
   use execution grant, and the parameter pre-image that record commits
   to. *It does not establish that any service was delivered, that any
   obligation was discharged, or that the payment achieved its purpose.
   It does not establish that the approving principal — as opposed to
   the payer key — authorized the transfer.* Those scope limits are
   permanent and are restated wherever this artifact is described.
