Inside Document Engine
One document engine for the whole state: versioning, SHA-256 at ingest, stamping, a redaction pipeline, certified copies, templates with merge fields, and QR verification of any state-issued artifact at /verify.
Document Engine
Every artifact versioned, hashed, stamped, verifiable.

Everything this module does
The full capability set — nothing hidden behind a toggle.
- SHA-256 at ingest
- Every page that enters the system — e-filed, scanned, or generated — is hashed at ingest. The hash is the document's identity for the rest of its life.
- Versioning & stamping
- Received stamps, paid stamps, certification stamps — applied as new versions over the preserved original, never destructively.
- Redaction pipeline
- Rule-driven redaction for public release: personal identifiers, protected parties, financial numbers. The unredacted original remains sealed with its own access log.
- Certified copies
- Paid, QR-verified certified copies issued from any suite — court decisions, civil-registry certificates, permit records — with per-copy fees on the Treasury Rail.
- Templates & merge fields
- Orders, notices, permits, and certificates generate from pack-supplied templates with merge fields — in the deployment's languages and paper sizes, print-perfect.
- Public verification
- Every issued artifact carries a QR code resolving to /verify, which checks the presented document against its ingest hash. Forgery becomes a cryptographic problem, not a visual one.
How it connects to other offices
Typed, receipted, audited messages move between suites — no folders lost between agencies.
