  • duplicate side effect
  • pre existing state
  • wrong subject

The signed contract states the exact conditions, the evidence and the timing. The runtime reads them. The page states the promise.

Can linear.issue.assigned return VERIFIED from the action response alone?

No. The action response is E1, and an acknowledgement is never terminal success. The contract needs evidence of level E2 or higher from Linear GraphQL API.

What happens after the timeout?

The verdict is UNVERIFIABLE. The operation goes to a person for review.
