Whitepaper canon

The architecture, on the record.

Every paper documenting how BenchSlap verifies legal authority deterministically: a closed, content-hash-pinned corpus, a structural (AEGIS PRIME) layer, and defense in depth against AI citation hallucination. Each PDF is served directly from this site.
