A bit more detail

If the game on the home page was enough, stay there. This page is for people who want the names of the parts. Lock (local) → Fingerprint (public) → Check (anyone). No token. No wallet required to check. The test-network program is live — see public Devnet proof.

Two pieces

	Job
QEV	The locker on your computer. Makes a portable locked file.
QAL	The public stamp for that file, plus history you can check later.

Studio is practice in the browser — not the official QEV vault. A liar can still lock a lie.

How the fingerprint is made

validate schema (BRY-NFET-SX-VAULT-V2)
canonical = sorted-key JSON, no spaces
digest    = SHA-256 of that UTF-8 string

Commands (for builders)

pnpm install && pnpm build
pnpm doctor
qal encrypt file.json --out file.qev    # prompts for phrase
qal anchor file.qev --network devnet
qal verify file.qev --receipt file.qal-receipt.json
