Answer.

Supply-chain / provenance standard · SSDF · Protect Software (PS).

The SSDF (NIST SP 800-218) Protect-Software (PS) practices call for protecting software and verifying its integrity; SLSA provenance — signed, verifiable build attestations — is a concrete way to evidence PS.3 (archive and protect each release) and PS.2 (provide a mechanism to verify integrity). Mapping SLSA build provenance to the PS practices gives auditors a machine-checkable chain. Planisphere applies the same provenance idea to the audit artifact itself: the record is signed and recomputable, so its integrity is verifiable independent of trust in the producer.

When SSDF · Protect Software (PS) asks for proof, hand over records — not assurances.

record the duty · seal the receipt · verify offline

Planisphere records each duty event — an output marked, a disclosure shown, a review made — and seals it into a receipt that verifies offline against our published keys. You send hashes, never content. A record is evidence a third party can check; it is not a certification and not a legal determination.
