An open specification for composable, conformant business programs. Vendor-neutral, signed, and readable by any conformant tool — so a score written once can be performed, audited, and trusted anywhere.
Every stave resolves at its barline; the performance is independently verified by Concert.
Performance validates against the score's signature and is audited on a sampling cadence.
The operator attests conformance; signatures are recorded but not externally verified.
Published under an open license. No single vendor — including Score Networks — controls the spec.
Scores and performances are cryptographically signed, so conformance is provable, not asserted.
RFC-style proposals, public review, and semantic versioning keep the standard stable and legible.
An independent body maintains the spec, runs the registry, and certifies conformant implementations.
