The record, for a machine reader.
Every Origin Passport is served as data. Read a record, follow each claim to its evidence, and take away a Merkle proof you can check without RUTHVEN. Every door is read-only: no keys, no writes, no valuation, no recommendation.
Where to read from

The evidence root
Each piece of evidence is a leaf in a Merkle tree (ruthven-evidence-merkle-v1). The root is printed on the Passport, so one claim can be proved without the rest.

What a proof shows. That the record contains a claim, as issued. It does not make the claim true. Each claim's evidence type says whether it rests on a hash, on the chain, or on a statement by the artist, and a claim's state is the weakest state of the records it rests on.
