rdsalwan-bot/Con-Sin-Proof: Con-Sin Proof Protocol v1.0.0 — Initial Public Release (Zenodo-Archived)

This is the first public, versioned release of the Con-Sin Proof Protocol, published as the canonical snapshot for long-term citation and archival (including Zenodo ingestion). What Con-Sin is Con-Sin is a lightweight record-integrity workflow for court and agency submissions. It uses SHA-256 (plus byte size and timestamp context) to identify a finalized document as a Canonical Copy, enabling later verification and detection of substitution, truncation, or transformation. Included in this release Whitepaper / protocol specification Repository license (default content license + template exception structure) Documentation (operational pages: Quickstart, Hashing Tools, Court Filing Workflow, Service Workflow, FAQ / Objections) Core concept (one sentence) Compute a SHA-256 for the finalized file you rely on and treat that digest (with byte size and timestamp context) as the Canonical Copy identifier; any authentic duplicate must be byte-identical and reproduce the same digest. Notes on court intake transformations Court scanning/OCR/re-saving may produce a different file (and hash). Con-Sin preserves the filer's Canonical Copy and treats court-returned/stamped artifacts as separate items that can be hashed and compared as part of a structured record. Licensing (summary) Default repository content: CC BY-SA 4.0, unless a file states otherwise. Templates: CC0 1.0 applies only to files explicitly marked as CC0.
