Schema contracts

Schema contracts define the stable JSON surfaces for references, reports, and workflow artifacts.

• Validate inputs before they are accepted.
• Keep exported JSON deterministic and documented.
• Keep canonical CSL separate from verification, provenance, policy, and operational review metadata.

Current Schemas

• sourceright.verification.schema.json: references.verification.json sidecar records keyed by CSL id.
• sourceright.review-queue.schema.json: JSONL review queue entries derived from the verification sidecar.
• sourceright.reference-report.schema.json: sourceright.reference_report.v1 report JSON and MCP resource payloads.
• sourceright.journal-screening.schema.json: sourceright.journal_screening.v1 editorial screening output.
• sourceright.legal-citation-report.schema.json: legal citation reports that stay separate from CSL JSON.
• sourceright.provenance-report.schema.json: claim/source provenance graphs that describe linkage without claim-truth scoring.
• sourceright.export-manifest.schema.json: export artifact inventories.
• sourceright.sync-manifest.schema.json: planned citation-manager sync manifests.
• sourceright.citation-sync.schema.json: sourceright.citation_sync.v1 preview/apply reports, including suppressed and review-required suggestion counts.
• sourceright.policy.schema.json: journal or workflow policy inputs for style, recency, and integrity checks.
• sourceright.policy-report.schema.json: deterministic policy-check report output.
• sourceright.plugin-manifest.schema.json: plugin manifest metadata, contracts, capabilities, fixtures, and safety posture.
• sourceright.mcp-status.schema.json: machine-readable readiness output for the MCP status surface.
