plumb-line-provenance (JavaScript)

A conservative provenance / confidence / lineage envelope with a taint-propagation combination law: once any input is mock or low-confidence, every value derived from it inherits that taint automatically — there is no escape hatch that silently clears the flag.

import { mark, derive, metaOf, auditMeta } from "plumb-line-provenance";

const base  = mark(1000, { source: "real", confidence: "high" });
const rate  = mark(1.25, { source: "mock", confidence: "low" });
const total = derive([base, rate], (a, r) => a * r);

total.derivedFromMock; // true  — inherited from rate, cannot be cleared
total.confidence;      // 'low' — only as certain as the weakest input
auditMeta(metaOf(total)); // []  — internally consistent

You can also copy the .mjs files directly into a project and import them relatively; both styles work.
