Direct answer
Metered Evidence Retrieval, in this control model, is limited to the following inspected scope. Current Maha licensed-evidence interface and access boundary. Protocol-level authorization context for protected retrieval. The answer carries the source boundaries forward and does not infer authority from a neighboring topic.
Control objectives and failure evidence
State the controlled input, decision rule, observable failure, and evidence that the control ran.
A control description is not evidence of effectiveness; verification and operational observation remain separate.
Applied scope: Current Maha licensed-evidence interface and access boundary. Protocol-level authorization context for protected retrieval.
Definition and operating context
The canonical concept owner is maha-strategies. This route may apply authority; it cannot redefine or inherit the authority of its canonical owner.
This property may publish bounded explanations, operational guides, commercial entry points. It must not publish research-source duplication or unreleased evidence claims.
Evidence and exact locators
Licensed evidence retrieval contract and implementation — MCP_EVIDENCE_TOOL; MCP_EVIDENCE_LICENSE_PLANS; MCP_EVIDENCE_LICENSE_TERMS; parseMcpEvidenceToolArguments; buildLicensedEvidenceProjection. Establishes: Current Maha licensed-evidence interface and access boundary.
Authorization — Access-token audience and resource validation requirements. Establishes: Protocol-level authorization context for protected retrieval.
What the evidence does not establish
Repository behavior is product evidence, not independent evidence of security, availability, or customer value.
MCP does not define Maha pricing or quota policy.
This route must not claim research-source duplication.
This route must not claim unreleased evidence claims.

Questions this page can answer
What does Metered Evidence Retrieval mean in this bounded context?
Metered Evidence Retrieval, in this control model, is limited to the following inspected scope. Current Maha licensed-evidence interface and access boundary. Protocol-level authorization context for protected retrieval. The answer carries the source boundaries forward and does not infer authority from a neighboring topic.
Which inspected sources support this controls answer?
Licensed evidence retrieval contract and implementation (repository source reviewed 2026-09-05), at MCP_EVIDENCE_TOOL; MCP_EVIDENCE_LICENSE_PLANS; MCP_EVIDENCE_LICENSE_TERMS; parseMcpEvidenceToolArguments; buildLicensedEvidenceProjection, supports current Maha licensed-evidence interface and access boundary. Authorization (specification 2025-06-18), at Access-token audience and resource validation requirements, supports protocol-level authorization context for protected retrieval.
What does the evidence not establish?
Repository behavior is product evidence, not independent evidence of security, availability, or customer value. MCP does not define Maha pricing or quota policy. Property boundary: This route may apply authority; it cannot redefine or inherit the authority of its canonical owner.
Which definition or canonical owner must be read first?
Read the maha-strategies definition at https://www.mahastrategies.com/clearing/agent-governance/identity-bound-agents/definition first. The present page applies that definition through its narrower route role.
What source, policy, implementation, or release change would require revision?
Re-evaluate this page when a cited source, locator, governing instrument, local implementation, or canonical definition changes. Publication also requires a matching exact-revision review and active canonical release.
