# The evidence pack

Hotato ships proof as reproducible commands, recorded audio, and deterministic,
byte-stable verdicts you can rerun on your own machine.

The standard every artifact in this pack is held to, and why it is ranked the
way it is, lives in [evidence/README.md](evidence/README.md). Read that first
if you are deciding how much to trust any single piece below.

## What's in the pack

- **Bundled demo** -- two recorded calls a provider-default agent fails,
  scored offline in under a minute, one command. `hotato demo` ·
  [START.md](START.md)
- **Recorded provider-default battery** -- 12 scripted calls against a live
  voice agent on its default settings; a missed interruption and a false
  stop fail in the same run.
  [`corpus/vapi-defaults/README.md`](../corpus/vapi-defaults/README.md)
- **Determinism check** -- same recording, same numbers, every run, on
  every OS CI verifies (Linux proven; macOS/Windows now checked, pending a
  first green run). [VALIDATION.md](VALIDATION.md) Job 1
- **Not-scorable gallery** -- eight input conditions and the exact verdict
  each produces, including three hard refusals. [GALLERY.md](GALLERY.md) ·
  [TRUST-GALLERY.md](TRUST-GALLERY.md)
- **Trust contract** -- the input-condition table the gallery demonstrates.
  [TRUST-MATRIX.md](TRUST-MATRIX.md)
- **What is and is not validated** -- the three jobs Hotato is measured on,
  and the explicit does-not-claim list. [VALIDATION.md](VALIDATION.md)
- **Where Hotato fits next to a QA platform** -- named-vendor routing
  guide. [COMPARE.md](COMPARE.md)
- **Case studies** -- recorded-audio write-ups, each with a repro command
  and a mandatory "What Hotato did not prove" scope section.
  [`case-studies/`](case-studies/README.md)
- **Shareable cards** -- self-contained SVGs of a candidate, a
  threshold-funnel finding, or a verify result. [CARDS.md](CARDS.md) ·
  [`assets/cards/`](assets/cards/)
- **Launch-bar status** -- the checklist of what is done and what is still
  an open gap. [evidence/validation-plan.md](evidence/validation-plan.md)

## How to check it yourself

Every artifact above is re-derivable from a command, not asserted from memory:

```bash
hotato demo --no-open --format text          # the two bundled failures
hotato run --stereo FILE.wav --expect yield  # diff two runs, get nothing
hotato trust --stereo FILE.wav               # the refusal contract, live
```

Every command above runs offline, on your machine -- reproduce it yourself
instead of taking the claim on faith.

## What counts as evidence here

Proof in this pack is reproducible: a command, a recording, a verdict you can
check yourself, ranked by the standard in
[evidence/README.md](evidence/README.md).
