# Stage 6: explore what people and machines receive

**Outcome:** a journey receipt. **Time:** 45 to 90 minutes.

## Explain and inspect

A build proves that rules passed. A journey check proves that a person can
load the exact candidate, find a record, follow a relationship and understand
evidence and limits. Open the [OKF evolution review](../../explore/?bundle=..%2Fokf-bundle.json#research%2Fokf-evolution-review%2Findex.md).
The [conversation register](../okf-evolution-review-2026-08-17.md#scope-evidence-and-beginner-definitions)
and [standards ledger](../okf-evolution-review-2026-08-17.md#standards-incorporation-without-standards-theatre)
both contain evidence tables; a title without its body is a rendering defect.

## Do and check

Record the exact bundle identity, version and status; a search selecting the
expected record; Reader content and sources; incoming and outgoing Links;
Graph direction; Timeline meaning; and Inspect identity, assertion and
provenance. Test a missing record, similar name, broken source and unsupported
view. Copy a deep link, reload it and use back and forward. Repeat by keyboard
and at phone width.

## Retrieve and reflect

Name one defect schema validation could not reveal. Fix material defects in
the source, rebuild and repeat only affected checks.
