DECLARED RIGHTS · TIMESTAMPED EVIDENCE · HTTP X402
Explicit scope beats a vague guarantee
Use current capabilities and the quote preview. Unsupported declarations and missing information are not permissions.
Decision vocabulary
ALLOW_DECLARED: allowance observed under the supported profile. DENY_DECLARED: a relevant prohibition was observed. LICENSE_REQUIRED: a licensing requirement was observed. UNKNOWN: missing, conflicting or unsupported evidence prevents a stronger diagnostic conclusion.
UNKNOWN never authorizes use. LICENSE_REQUIRED does not mean AcqPath acquired a license.
Coverage is live configuration
Do not hard-code every publisher as supported from a marketing page. Read the current native-service coverage list.
The paid quote purpose enum is ai-input, ai-train, ai-index and search in the reviewed contract. Legacy crawl inspection is a separate free XML inspection path, not a paid product promise.
Signature and finality
A valid AcqPath signature proves what AcqPath signed. It does not prove that a publisher owns all rights, nor independently prove blockchain finality.
This client pins the supplied AcqPath public evidence key and checks signed reports/receipts. Replacing the key after an unexpected signature error requires an authenticated operator decision, not trust-on-first-use.
