Verified record
Origin, context, and core content are supported by enough independent evidence to be presented as stable archive history. Verified does not mean complete; it means the stated claims have crossed the archive threshold for confidence.
Recovered material
The source is credible and the material has been stabilized, but damage, conversion, or missing context remains part of the record. Recovery notes identify where intervention occurred.
Fragment
Only part of a larger signal survives. A fragment may hold a voice, image, route, warning, or piece of music without enough surrounding material to explain the full event.
Relay signal
Material entered through a compatible external transmitter and was carried by the Mainframe or Storm Horizon Radio. Relay marks describe the path of the signal rather than guaranteeing every claim inside it.
Unresolved evidence
The observation is stable enough to preserve, but its meaning, cause, or relationship to other events cannot yet be confirmed. The Tempest remains the archive’s clearest unresolved classification.
Sealed record
The Mainframe retains the material but withholds its contents because publication would create unacceptable harm, expose private information, or present dangerous material without adequate context.
Sealed does not mean erased. The existence and reason for restriction may remain visible even when the underlying record does not.
