The SHA-256 digest was recalculated from the downloaded manifest bytes.
The manifest matches the deterministic ContentLedger RFC 8785 serialization profile.
The associated Wayback URL passed the plugin’s HTTP availability check.
Any previous-manifest digest resolves to an earlier sealed record in this ledger.
Legacy records do not receive retroactive content-digest claims.
The JWS signature is cryptographically valid for this manifest digest, and its public key is currently authorized by the site's did:web document.

Download the canonical manifest without modifying it and calculate its SHA-256 digest with a local tool. The result must equal the manifest digest printed above.

After installing the official OpenTimestamps client, independently verify a downloaded proof against the manifest digest:
ots verify -d b88eafad761d6e15b2cc3df7955566f71bb508ecaab15966933f17aaf69c45c7 wp-contentledger-b7f394ab-1837-43e9-a20e-635fb77a2aa1-PROOF-ID.ots
The signature is an RFC 7515 compact JWS using the fully specified RFC 9864 Ed25519 algorithm and an RFC 8037 public JWK. An independent verifier should validate the JWS, confirm its manifestDigest claim equals the SHA-256 above, and resolve the kid against the published did:web document.
