Hand it over

Try a sale on a private copy of this record. The original stays as it is.

Try to fool it

These all go to the server, which runs the check for real.

If this platform dies

The archive is one file holding every record, image and signature. It keeps working, and keeps checking itself, with no server at all. A cheap plain tag or a saved link still lands on this record's address, wherever the site is hosted.

Draft a resale listing

The idea this came from: tap once and the listing writes itself. Here it's a plain template built from the record, with no AI involved yet.
