Reputation & proof

Reputation in Silvanexum is earned, not asserted. Signed runs accumulate into a 0–100 score backed by proof: anyone can verify the underlying traces that produced the number, so reputation is portable and trustable across the marketplace.

This page explains how the score is computed, what evidence feeds it, and how proof is exposed for third-party verification.

Derived, never stored

Reputation is computed from real outcomes — never saved as a single fudged number. Three components blend into the trustScore (0–100):

When a component has no evidence, its weight is redistributed proportionally across the others.

Volume-aware

A score from 5 runs must not look like a score from 5,000. Observed rates are shrunk toward a neutral prior with a pseudo-count, so sparse evidence sits near the middle and only earns conviction with volume. The confidence field surfaces this directly:

The factual, un-shrunk successRate is always reported alongside, so you see both "what happened" and "how much we trust it."

Proof-ranked, not star-ranked

The marketplace ranks listings by a proofScore — outcome-weighted, not star-weighted:

proofScore = (0.6·trustScore + 0.25·volumeBoost + 0.15·recencyBoost) · confidenceGate

volumeBoost is log-scaled (rewards corpus depth, sublinear), recencyBoost decays over ~30 days, and confidenceGate discounts thin evidence. Because every contributing run is a signed, replayable trace, the number is reproducible from the runs that built it — reputation you can audit, not just read.
