Structure

Property shape: object property; gmeow:Entity -> gmeow:Attestation

Practical Pattern

Use gmeow:hasAttestation from gmeow:Entity to gmeow:Attestation when the relationship itself belongs in the native GMEOW graph.

# --- A credential: an independent attestation OF the skill, by an issuer. A
#     verifiable credential references a gmeow:Attestation that signs it (the
#     expertise↔attestation seam): the credential is a CLAIM, the attestation
#     makes it checkable.

Usage Advice

Use when

• Use from an entity to enumerate the attestations vouching for it — the entity-rooted inverse of gmeow:attestedSubject, when traversing from the thing to who has vouched for it.

Avoid when

• Avoid asserting it directly when you can state gmeow:attestedSubject instead (prefer the attestation-rooted direction and read this as its inverse), and avoid treating one attestation as authoritative — multiple coexist (Principle 9).

How to use

• Assert gmeow:attestedSubject on the Attestation and read gmeow:hasAttestation by inversion; reach for it explicitly in entity-rooted projections that list every vouching envelope for a subject.
