title: "Settlement Orchestrator Attestation"
description: "Extends the attest_mcp_server (art-33) self-attestation doctrine to the settlement decision path: attests the off-chain orchestrator deciding commit/halt on a shared-ledger orchestration layer, never the ledger itself. Four-domain check (manifest lint, decision-policy reference, kernel-binding audit, transport audit) into a composite ship-readiness grade, binding the decision policy and invoked kernels to an execution-receipt chain."
