Using Vouch Bridge

Validate the exact artifacts and declared results carried by an external engine's Vouch Bridge report.

This is an earlier edition of the documentation. To check an external engine's report against your chosen files and execution settings, open the current Vouch Bridge guide.

Vouch Bridge gives an external engine a public evidence format. The engine emits vouch.bridge-report/v0 with exact source and target identities, engine identity, its declared route and gates, and linked evidence hashes.

SH
lispex verify-bridge \
  --source source.lspx \
  --target translated.output \
  bridge-report.json

--linked <artifact-id>=<artifact-file> binds a named evidence artifact. --expect-context <manifest.json> selects the expected profile, subject, and route. A successful command returns vouch.bridge-verify-report/v0 with the validated structure and receiver-selected byte bindings.

The external engine owns conversion correctness and its gates. The recipient owns the accepted engine, route, and evidence policy. Lispex owns the report schema and verification of the supplied bindings.

The current guide includes the complete field list, exit codes, and artifact roles.
