Evidence, not narration
Fornax captures tool calls, exit codes, and transcripts immutably, before any claim is checked — never trusting an agent's own summary of what it did.
Five honest states
Every finding is VERIFIED, UNVERIFIED, CONTRADICTED, REVIEW, or UNAVAILABLE — never a made-up trust score, never collapsed to pass/fail.
Local-first, no cloud required
Capture, verification, status line, and dashboard all run on one local process with no cloud dependency on the critical path.
