Schemas
-------

The open format of [core section 11](https://vcrs.org/draft/core#11), in JSON Schema 2020-12. Each schema answers at the address its $id names.

- [The facts export](https://vcrs.org/schema/0.1.0-beta.4/export.schema.json): A claimant register in the open format of VCRS 0.1.0-beta.4, section 11.1: the facts that set each record's grade, without the personal data behind them.
- [One record](https://vcrs.org/schema/0.1.0-beta.4/record.schema.json): One person's entry in a facts export: the facts that set its grade (VCRS 0.1.0-beta.4, section 4), without the personal data behind them.
- [The conformance statement](https://vcrs.org/schema/0.1.0-beta.4/conformance.schema.json): The one-page statement a representative publishes when it claims a level (VCRS 0.1.0-beta.4, section 11.2). No personal data.

An implementation builds in this order: a record's canonical form under RFC 8785 and its SHA-256 digest ([core 11.3](https://vcrs.org/draft/core#11.3)), the snapshot root over every record's line, its identifier and its digest, as the Merkle Tree Hash of RFC 9162 ([core 5.4](https://vcrs.org/draft/core#5.4)), then each record's grade, checked against the [test vectors](#test-vectors) below.

Test vectors
------------

Each vector is one record with the flows, the annex and the dates it is graded under, and the grade it must get ([core 11.4](https://vcrs.org/draft/core#11.4)). The reasons say why it holds that grade, in the codes of [core 11.5](https://vcrs.org/draft/core#11.5). Each description opens the vector's file.
