Direct answer
Evidence Dossiers — Failure Modes describes the bounded Maha behavior established by the cited implementation and carries the implementation's explicit non-claims.
Answer contract
Apply the failure modes lens only to the exact inspected source scope; do not infer authority from adjacent topics.
Evidence and exact locators
t19-dossier-validator — lib/evidence-dossier/validator.ts — validateDossier. Supports: Checks dossier schema, identities, transitions, and nested provenance consistency.
What the evidence does not establish
A valid package can still contain weak or misinterpreted evidence.
