Summary

Proof of Audits is the contest platform whose output does not expire. We propose Canton-specific, open-source extensions: Daml-aware Pre-Audit Engine, Privacy-Preserving Trust Passport (permissioned evidence vault), and Canton support for Contract Shield (bytecode + authority match). Delivers shared security infra for all Canton apps, not a private service.

Notes for Reviewers

External team seeking Champion. Champion field added in proposal header (Seeking Champion via SIG daml-tooling, financial-workflows-composability, regulatory-compliance). SIG labels daml-tooling included in file. Proof of Audits live public beta 30 Jul 2026 at https://proofofaudits.com (pre-revenue, 40+ auditors scored, solo founder MK Veerendra Vamshi). All outputs Apache-2.0, proposal CC0. This PR replaces #653 which was closed by bot before fix was synced. Branch now contains Champion + SIG from first commit.
