Conformance overview

The repository includes a starter conformance surface so that compatibility claims can be grounded in observable behavior rather than prose alone.

For the full repository-facing material, see:

• ../conformance/README.md
• ../conformance/profiles.md
• ../conformance/test-matrix.md

What to evaluate

A baseline-compatible implementation should make it possible to inspect:

• namespace authority,
• query and lookup behavior,
• schema validation expectations,
• revocation and freshness semantics,
• and the machine-readable contract surface.
