Example evidence trace

1. Rear-door alarm: 23:41. The rear-door contact trips. The alarm is captured with its zone and time.
2. Door forced, not badged: Access control confirms no valid credential opened that door. The event is tied to the door and the rule it broke.
3. Camera clip pulled: The nearest camera clip is linked to the alarm and queued for a person to verify. No scrubbing through hours of footage.
4. Incident report opened: The case opens with the alarm, the access record, and the clip already attached.
5. Procedure matched: The rear-door alarm-response procedure is matched to the exact door and situation it governs.
6. Corrective action proposed: A lighting and door-hardware fix is queued as a recommendation for human review.
7. Action approved: Leadership signs off. The decision is logged with its reasoning: the system recommends, people decide.
8. Committed to memory: Event, evidence, procedure, and decision are kept together in persistent memory, in the storage the client chooses. The next rear-door alarm starts with this history.

Selecting a point opens its record: the format it arrives in, its source, who keeps it, how long it is held, its evidence, and whether a person must sign off.
