# Provenance
> Provenance attestation library for SLSA/DSSE compliance.
## Purpose
Provenance provides deterministic, verifiable provenance attestations for all StellaOps artifacts. It enables SLSA compliance through DSSE statement generation, Merkle tree construction, and cryptographic verification.
## Quick Links
- [Architecture](./architecture.md) - Technical design and implementation details
- [Guides](./guides/) - Attestation generation guides
## Status
| Attribute | Value |
|-----------|-------|
| **Maturity** | Production |
| **Last Reviewed** | 2025-12-29 |
| **Maintainer** | Security Guild |
## Key Features
- **DSSE Statement Generation**: Build provenance attestations per DSSE spec
- **SLSA Compliance**: Support for SLSA build predicates
- **Merkle Tree Construction**: Content-addressed integrity verification
- **Promotion Attestations**: Track artifact promotions across environments
- **Verification Harness**: Validate attestation chains
## Dependencies
### Upstream (this module depends on)
- **Signer/KMS** - Key management for signing (delegated)
### Downstream (modules that depend on this)
- **Attestor** - Stores generated attestations
- **EvidenceLocker** - Evidence bundle attestations
- **ExportCenter** - Export attestations
## Notes
Provenance is a **library**, not a standalone service. It does not:
- Store attestations (handled by Attestor and EvidenceLocker)
- Hold signing keys (delegated to Signer/KMS)
All attestation outputs are deterministic with canonical JSON serialization.
