Purpose: carries a worker’s claimed completion for mechanical verification. Schema: schemas/worker_result.schema.json. Required: schema_version, task_id, worker, model, status, summary; workspace, branch, commit, files, tests, blockers, and evidence are optional. Valid/invalid examples: examples.json#/worker-result.
A result is never self-certifying: a completed result must resolve to the expected branch/head, clean worktree, owned paths, and passing reported tests. Workers produce it; RailWarden validates/normalizes it; Hermes consumes verified outcomes. Versioning/migration: provisional, additive fields preferred. Maturity: provisional.
