the audit trail level nobody names but every AI product needs eventually

most audit trails answer 'did this action happen.' the ones that hold up under legal scrutiny answer something harder: 'would the reviewer who signed it still say yes if you asked them today.'

ive been calling this consent-of-record. not just reviewer id, but reviewer knew X at time of sign-off and stands behind it now. it sits above the usual forensic level (timestamp, user, action, immutable hash chain). that layer proves it happened. it doesnt prove the human is still endorsing it.
