| Channel |
The conduit for one type of process. Created in the console; its configuration is sealed with a timestamp at creation (a commitment made before the facts). Changes create versions; none is ever rewritten. |
| Event |
One declaration sent to the channel. Immutable: it gets a sequence number, digest, timestamp coverage and chaining. |
| Modality |
Per channel: content (you send the data — a JSON token from your process, or a file — and the certification is self-contained) or hash-only (you send the digest; the content never leaves your perimeter). |
| Declarant |
The person or entity on whose behalf events are declared. Designated when configuring the channel; part of the sealed configuration. In reports it appears as a declaration of the channel owner 🔒. |
| Certification |
A PDF report signed by Safe Creative + evidence ZIP, covering a range of dates or sequence numbers. Issued on demand, asynchronously. |
| API key |
A channel credential. Live (sc_live_…) or test (sc_test_…): same contract, but test mode consumes no balance and produces no probative value. |
