Cite Ledger
ScriptMasterLabs' public record of citable posts: the question each post answers, the first-party measurement it leads with, and whether AI engines cited it. Built on a simple rule — if a post could have been written without ScriptMasterLabs' systems existing, it is not a citable post.

Current record
The question: What does a 5-juror agent decision receipt cost, and which settlement proves it?
The answer, in the first two sentences: ScriptMasterLabs' recorded settlement proves the price — a 5-juror verdict from the Verdict Protocol costs $0.25 USDC, settled on Base. The record below is the proof: the endpoint, the network, the payTo wallet, and the date the settlement was recorded.
| Field | Record |
|---|---|
| Price | $0.25 USDC · 5-juror verdict |
| Settlement recorded | 2026-10-12 |
| Endpoint | https://verdict.scriptmasterlabs.com/decide |
| Network | Base (eip155:8453) |
| payTo | 0x5bbd32e0478e49a7540ef2d760e0b0f9aa6328b2 |
Truth label: Proof settlement — run by ScriptMasterLabs on its own endpoint. This record is an owner-run proof that the rail settles at the stated price; it is not a customer purchase and is never presented as one.
The checks
Every post that enters this ledger is graded against the same seven checks. Generic answers have a definition and no receipt id, no settlement transaction, and no date — they fail check 4 on sight.
- Question, not a topic — the headline is the question a buyer types.
- Measurement in the first two sentences — the number is not buried; it opens the answer.
- Brand plus fact — the quotable line carries the name with the number, so the sentence an engine copies is the citation.
- Could not be written without SML — a date, a receipt, or a transaction. Otherwise it is a topic post.
- 50–299 words for the LinkedIn version — one question, one compact answer.
- Tags baked in — hashtags, $ on a real USDC price, @mentions, a closing question.
- No offer — no signup line in the answer body.
Do it yourself?
- POST the decision capsule to
https://verdict.scriptmasterlabs.com/decide. - Read the 402. It is the price, on Base mainnet (eip155:8453), payTo
0x5bbd32e0478e49a7540ef2d760e0b0f9aa6328b2. - Sign the EIP-3009 authorization and resend it with the PAYMENT-SIGNATURE header.
- The receipt is persisted first. Settlement fires after. Replay that signed request and you get the same receipt and the same settlement, with no second charge.
Citation check log
Each question in this ledger is checked weekly in ChatGPT, Perplexity, and Google AI Mode. Every check is logged below as one of three results: cited the record, cited a retelling, or missed — with the cited URL and position noted. The next post starts from a measurement this log turns up, not from a new topic.
| Engine | Query run | Result | Date | Note |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| — | What does a 5-juror agent decision receipt cost, and which settlement proves it? | No checks yet for this question. | — | First weekly check pending. |
The product behind the record
The record above settles through the Verdict Protocol — ScriptMasterLabs' decision layer for agent payments: a decision capsule goes in, five Jev jurors score it under a non-overridable constitution, and the sealed receipt comes back with the settlement attached. Jev chooses. Code decides. The live endpoint is https://verdict.scriptmasterlabs.com/decide; the full product page, pricing, and supported networks are on the Verdict Protocol page.
