# Approval Status Transition Evidence

Treat a status label as proven only when the transition receipt matches it.

## Scope
Preparation and review only. No account action or professional decision.

## Inputs
Post ID, displayed status and status change receipts.

## Workflow
1. Record the displayed status.
2. Match it to the latest status change receipt.
3. Separate approved from scheduled and published receipts.
4. Return the status evidence without changing the post.

## Output contract
post | displayed_status | receipt_status | match | proven | change_unproved

## Fictional acceptance test
Fictional post shows Approved while its latest receipt is a draft edit. The label and the receipt disagree, so approval is unproved until a matching receipt exists.

## Review gates
Keep original values, source IDs and version dates. Unknown facts stay held. Use qualified review for hiring, legal and accounting conclusions. No send, share, sign-in, scheduling, ledger change or payment. Fictional contract review is not a live account compatibility test.
