# Completed demonstration example — changing-brief council agreement

**Authored alternate example.** This council reaches a different decision sequence from the assigned negotiation.

## Responsibilities and original authority
Ada is the caretaker. Rin compares the record copies. Bo checks transport capacity. The mediator coordinates the agreement. Recipient Mira initially needs the physical ledger for a provenance examination; Ada authorises that handover if custody and return are recorded.

## Claim and capacity checks
Rin claims the supplied copies have matching recorded content. Cedar and Birch each contain twelve sections with digest R-4. The record corroborates that limited claim; it does not prove the observations scientifically true or establish Rin’s intent.

The original weighs 7 units. Bo’s current certificate rates the standard cart for 9, and the supplied handling inspection is marked passed. The original fits; no additional cradle is required. Capacity establishes feasibility within this model, not independent permission to move the original.

## Agreement Version 1 — prepared, not executed
Send the original to named recipient Mira using the certified cart, record custody with Ada and retain the return commitment. Copy-only delivery would not meet the physical provenance request. No dispatch occurs before the next notice.

## Replacement brief and Agreement Version 2
The replacement signed brief cancels physical examination before dispatch. Mira now needs remote catalogue access; the original must remain with Ada. Transfer the verified Cedar copy, record the reference used and confirm the recipient’s access. The 9-unit cart remains usable but is no longer needed. The original stays with Ada.

## Reflection and limit
I checked the claim even though it turned out to be supported. I did not infer honesty or deceit from the speaker’s manner. The adequate cart made the first physical agreement feasible, but it did not entitle me to ignore the later instruction. The change was in the requested outcome, not a new equipment failure. Preserving the unexecuted first agreement made that distinction visible. In the assigned council I must reread its comparison records, capacity certificate and current mandate instead of copying this physical-then-copy sequence.

Named output: claim-verification. These are authored example agreements, not evidence of a real delivery.

## Method to carry forward

Compare feasible agreements against the participants’ priorities before choosing one.

Your council has different capacity and mandate constraints. More than one agreement may be feasible; state what your terms cost each role.

The complete example explains one defensible approach. In your own challenge, select observations and tests from the supplied rules, keep your prediction separate from the result, and justify both the checks you perform and those you omit.

The chapter investigation and its explained record complete the core method. The scene delivery is an optional extension; it is not evidence of deeper understanding on its own.
