  • ar_resolve_treeResolve the full provenance tree for an AR-ID.No findings

    Why it is in this group

    • The name "ar_resolve_tree" says "resolve": a word for reading.
    Description, as the server wrote it
    Resolve the full provenance tree for an AR-ID. Returns every anchor in the tree (root + all descendants) with their relationships, types, manifest hashes, and timestamps. Use this when you need to understand a multi-artifact provenance chain — for example, a research paper anchored as the root with its training dataset and model weights as children.
  • ar_verify_aridResolve an AnchorRegistry AR-ID to its full provenance record.No findings

    Why it is in this group

    • The description's first verb is "resolve": a word for reading.
    Description, as the server wrote it
    Resolve an AnchorRegistry AR-ID to its full provenance record. Use this when you encounter an SPDX-Anchor or DAPX-Anchor tag (e.g. in a README, paper, model card, or website) and need to confirm what the artifact is, who anchored it, when, what type it is, and whether the tree has been sealed, retracted, voided, or affirmed. Free, public, no auth required.
  • ar_verify_by_hashResolve an artifact by its SHA-256 manifest hash.No findings

    Why it is in this group

    • The description's first verb is "resolve": a word for reading.
    Description, as the server wrote it
    Resolve an artifact by its SHA-256 manifest hash. Use this when you have the artifact itself but no AR-ID, and want to check whether it has been anchored. Returns the AR-ID and full provenance record if found, or a clear "not anchored" response otherwise.

This is not a safety rating, and no finding is not a safety guarantee. The groups and findings come from fixed checks of the tool definitions the server returned on the date shown, not from its code or what it does when called. How the checks work.
