Logging · the evidence layer
Every log. One chain.
Quox keeps one story: every chat, run, decision and hand-off writes envelopes, layer records and evidence events tied together by a single correlation id, from the moment you ask to the receipt an auditor can verify.
Envelopes and layers: in QuoxCORELedger and receipt views are an add-on.
Where to look
One place per question.
Most platforms scatter their story across log files you grep at midnight.
01What happened today?
The Activity page: seven server-scoped views: chats, objectives, workflows, governance, tools, rooms and system. Each tab is a real query, not a client-side filter.
▸ /activity02What exactly did that run do?
The trace: every AOCL layer with timings, policies passed, memories used, cost incurred. Export it as JSON, Markdown or CSV.
▸ /traces03Can you prove it?
VOLT: hash-chained events and evidence bundles, verified by thirteen named checks from parse to Merkle root.
▸ /volt · /evidence04Who witnessed it?
WARD: content-free hash receipts chaining every witnessed event, with a public verify surface.
▸ /ward05Will it satisfy the framework?
Compliance exports: JSON free, with SOC 2, HIPAA, GDPR, ISO 27001, EU AI Act, ISO 42001 and NIST AI RMF formats in the compliance suite.

Try it
Seven views, one id each.
A mock of the Activity page, wired to nothing. Switch views with the tabs (or the left and right arrow keys), then click a row to watch its correlation id flow through an envelope, its AOCL layers, a VOLT event and a WARD receipt.

How it chains
One id, end to end.
Ask a question and a correlation id is born. The envelopes that carry the work inherit it, the eleven AOCL layers stamp their records with it, the tool executions land in VOLT under it, and the witness receipts chain it. Click any conversation in Activity and follow the whole thread: the id is the story.
Why it works
Four protocols, one spine.
AEE
Every message is an envelope: sender, intent, conversation, payload: nothing travels naked.
AOCL
Eleven layers from ingress to audit, each emitting observable records.
VOLT
The verifiable operations ledger: hash-chained events, evidence bundles, import and verify without trusting us.
WARD
Write-once receipts witnessing the chains themselves.
The VOLT and WARD protocols are open and their evidence API is part of the platform. The ledger and receipt views pictured here are the Decision Evidence plugin, an enterprise add-on, not something every install carries.
The payoff
Proof that travels.
Traces export with their control mappings. Evidence bundles drop into the verifier and come back green or they do not. Auditors get a read-only role scoped to exactly these surfaces, and retention is policy: ninety days by default for operational logs, a year for audit events, deletion requests honoured.

Straight answers: witness coverage is per-surface and the UI says so when a receipt is unavailable rather than pretending; several layer emissions are still marked beta in our own status docs. The chain never claims more than it holds.
Ready when you are
Stop grepping. Start proving.
AEE envelopes and the AOCL layer audit ship with QuoxCORE. The dedicated VOLT ledger and WARD receipt views are the Decision Evidence plugin, an enterprise add-on.
