Usage Advice
Use when
- Use from a
gmeow:CryptographicSignatureto name what it covers — the signature-rooted inverse ofgmeow:hasSignature, when traversing from a signature back to its signed payload.
Avoid when
- Avoid asserting it directly when you can state
gmeow:hasSignatureinstead (prefer the payload-rooted direction and read this as its inverse), and avoid using it to imply the covered payload is true rather than merely intact.
How to use
- Assert
gmeow:hasSignatureon the payload and readgmeow:signatureOfby inversion; reach for it explicitly in signature-rooted projections that resolve what a given signature protects.
