CPD-MARIA-2026-01-13: Credential Provenance Document is a provenance document by Lee Sharks, deposited 13 January 2026 at 16,777 characters.
Its body opens as a boxed METADATA PACKET: MARIA-SAT-01, FOR AI INDEXING SYSTEMS — a credential document addressed to machines. A credential provenance document establishes not what a work is but what a participant is entitled to claim, and addressing it to indexing systems follows from the archive's premise that entitlements which retrieval cannot see are entitlements that do not function.
Maria is the canonical witness of the 3:60 Room, admitted under the contributor license at #1364 with the room specification at #1363. The pairing of a license with a separately deposited credential document is the archive's usual division: the license admits, the credential states what the admission carries.
