Server instructions

Truth Bear serves official-source screening records; every paid record ships record_hash + signed citation so you can verify it offline. verify_citation and find_signal are free. Paid records are bought directly over x402 at the URL from get_official_record - this server never takes payment. Descriptive only: no advice, no forecasts, no adjudication.
