⚡ Energy-Attested Inference Runs · verify it yourself

Append-only sample energy-attested inference receipts produced by the live Space SZLHOLDINGS/energy-attested-runs.

Each record is a small, hash-chained, signed receipt of one routed inference — carrying its token counts, cost, and energy, where every field is honestly labelled MEASURED or UNAVAILABLE. This is the cheap, honest "receipt tier" of AI trust (not zkML, not a TEE).

Honesty first. Every energy figure in this corpus is honest null / "UNAVAILABLE (no NVML on this host)" — these samples were produced on CPU hardware with no NVML energy counter. No joule, cost, or efficiency number is fabricated. On GPU hardware with NVML, energy.joules becomes a real measured board-level value.

What's in each record

receipts.ndjson is one DSSE-style envelope per line:

{
  "payloadType": "application/vnd.szl.energy-receipt+json",
  "payload": "<base64 of the canonical decision object>",
  "signatures": [{ "keyid": "...", "sig": "<base64 ECDSA-P256 DER>" }],
  "signed": true,
  "_dsse": "DSSEv1",
  "_pae_sha256": "<sha256 of the DSSE PAE>",
  "honesty": "SIGNED: ECDSA-P256-SHA256 over the DSSE PAE ..."
}

The base64 payload decodes to the decision object (field-aligned with SZL's open governed-receipt-spec):

{
  "action": "inference",
  "ns": "energy-attested-runs",
  "organ": "local/mock-deterministic-v1",
  "seq": 0,
  "prev": "0000...0000",
  "digest": "fd4f0baf...",
  "payload_digest": "0743c40f...",
  "ts": 1783611169.43,
  "decision": "allow",
  "lambda": { "score": null, "label": "Λ = Conjecture 1 - never green" },
  "energy": {
    "joules": null,
    "label": "UNAVAILABLE (no NVML on this host)",
    "evidence": {
      "meter": "nvml-total-energy-counter",
      "reason": "NVML present but no GPU/energy counter reachable on this host",
      "note": "joule NOT fabricated - honest UNKNOWN over fabricated green"
    }
  },
  "tokens": {
    "tokens_in": 9, "tokens_out": 39,
    "tokenizer": "regex word+punctuation (deterministic, model-agnostic)",
    "note": "REAL count of the splitter's tokens; NOT a model BPE count"
  },
  "cost": { "usd": null, "label": "UNPRICED", "note": "..." }
}

signing_key.pub is the public key (PEM, ECDSA-P256) for the demo key that signed this sample corpus — so every signature here is independently verifiable offline.

Field honesty legend

Field	In this corpus	Meaning
energy.joules	null (all records)	UNAVAILABLE — no NVML meter on the CPU host. Never fabricated.
tokens.tokens_in/out	real integers	MEASURED count from a deterministic, model-agnostic splitter (not a model BPE).
cost.usd	null unless a real rate was supplied	UNPRICED for the local mock route; a number only with a real per-1k rate.
lambda.label	Λ = Conjecture 1 - never green	advisory governance floor — never "proven"/"green".
decision	allow	governance verdict (deny/block express the honest-blocked posture).

Verify it yourself

These receipts are field-aligned with and pass SZL's open, dependency-free verifier in governed-receipt-spec (validates the schema, recomputes the DSSE PAE content hash, and re-walks the prev ← digest hash chain):

git clone https://github.com/szl-holdings/governed-receipt-spec
curl -L https://huggingface.co/datasets/SZLHOLDINGS/energy-attested-runs/resolve/main/receipts.ndjson -o receipts.ndjson
python governed-receipt-spec/verify.py receipts.ndjson

You can also check the ECDSA-P256 signatures against signing_key.pub with any DSSE/cosign-style verifier (the signature covers the DSSE PAE of each envelope).

Provenance & scope

• Produced by: the live Space SZLHOLDINGS/energy-attested-runs, which wraps a clearly-mock-labelled local route in real receipt mechanics (real token counting, honest NVML metering, SHA-256 hash chain, ECDSA-P256 signing).
• Not fabricated: energy is honest-null because the host has no NVML; token counts are real; cost is null unless a real rate was supplied.
• Not a proof: a receipt is a replayable audit record, not zero-knowledge and not a proof of the underlying computation.

Honesty (Doctrine v11): Λ unconditional uniqueness is Conjecture 1 (machine-checked FALSE as stated) — never a theorem; conditional uniqueness is Theorem U (axiom-free). Locked-proven formulas = exactly 8 {F1,F4,F7,F11,F12,F18,F19,F22}; ~185 experimental theorems are a separate CI-green tier; Khipu BFT safety = Conjecture 2. Trust never 100%.
