This protocol defines the procedures by which AIVO records and preserves evidence of AI-generated representations at the moment of observation.

Its purpose is to establish a defensible, replayable record of what an AI system presented to a user under defined conditions, without influencing, optimizing, or altering the system’s behavior.

This protocol applies to operational AI reliance contexts, including but not limited to AI-mediated discovery, explanation, comparison, and summarization interfaces.
