VAP & VCP research resources

Choose a research path

Choosing an evidence verifier or reproduction kit

Select by purpose and environment: reviewing submitted evidence is separate from experimenting with execution controls and OS isolation.

Cloud credential and operation evidence research

Synthetic research materials separate signature verification, authentication, operation authority and custody of records.

Payment API authorization and evidence research

Mock experiments distinguish valid signatures, exact-request approval, known execution outcomes and retained evidence.

VCP integrity, numeric representation and migration research

Navigate known issues, proposed repairs, candidate schemas and synthetic tests without mixing their versions or adoption status.

VCP SDK: source, installation and verification limits

An offline core for Python, TypeScript and MQL5. Check distribution status, the installation snapshot and unsupported claims before evaluating it.

Separate publication from adoption

VAP v1.2.0 remains Draft 3. VCP v1.2.0 GA describes specification publication, not production readiness or full VAP conformance. Merging research into main does not adopt new requirements.

VAP’s known issues include unpublished committee membership and decision records, the status of CHANGE-001 and the migration-period start. This directory does not resolve them.

Registry status is not document availability

OAP, MAP, PAP Track B and the DAP/SMP cross-cutting capabilities have registry entries, but their texts are not published in VSO repositories. IAP, DVP, AAP and EIP have no published specification texts either.

Use the VAP overview for domain introductions and the VAP specification page for the authoritative source and digest.

Pin the evaluation context

Select a purpose and record the source commit, dependencies, inputs and trust configuration.
Distinguish fresh execution from rechecking saved historical evidence.
An expected negative verdict can make a test match; that does not make the evidence pass.
Retain failures, incomplete runs, environment differences and support provided. Obtain execution agreement separately from publication permissions.

Sources and reviewed revisions

This page summarizes public materials at pinned commits. Creating it is not a new research test run. Historical test records and fixed distributions remain unchanged.
