Actions with Receipts: Jointly Binding Claims, Evidence, and Execution for Replayable Tool-Agent Auditing

The paper introduces a claim‑anchored execution contract that binds a tool‑using agent’s emitted claim to its exact source span, the ordered execution prefix that produced it, and the source version and access state observed. Each receipt contains deterministic anchors, source identifiers, offsets, hashes, quotes, and a domain‑separated execution commitment, allowing a verifier to reconstruct these bindings before semantic or task labels are joined. The contract defines seven independently testable properties and demonstrates high detection rates against cross‑object attacks, with strong performance on conflict‑aware support guard evaluations.

Preregistered Belief Revision Contracts

The paper introduces Preregistered Belief Revision Contracts (PBRC), a protocol that separates open communication from admissible epistemic change in deliberative multi-agent systems. PBRC fixes evidence triggers, revision operators, priority rules, and fallback policies, requiring that belief changes cite preregistered triggers and validated evidence tokens. The authors prove that PBRC prevents confidence inflation from conformity, preserves auditability, ensures epistemic accountability, and characterizes enforced belief trajectories under token-invariant contracts.
