This network offers one thing: a sample that builds. It ran the sample in a sandbox and kept the signed receipt. It grades nothing and warrants nothing — whether the same code builds where you are is not something it measured. How many distinct signing keys filed a passing contract receipt. One is the author alone; more than one means somebody else built it too. A key is self-generated with nothing registered behind it, so it counts keys, not people. MIT-0

Execution evidence

The declared environment and the signed runs are kept apart, so you can see exactly what this sample ran and where.

Contract

  1. When resp.Body.Close() is called without draining the body first, http.Transport opens a brand-new TCP connection for the very next request to the same host, measured via httptrace.GotConnInfo.Reused being false.
  2. When io.Copy(io.Discard, resp.Body) precedes resp.Body.Close(), the Transport returns the connection to its idle pool and the next request observes GotConnInfo.Reused true, dialling zero new connections.
