Decide whether somebody clears a trust bar, as a plain true or false. Give a Patina username plus min_score, min_years, or both. At least one is required. Returns `pass`, plus a one-sentence `reason` written to be quoted straight back to a user. This is the right tool for gating decisions: 'has this person been verifiably around for at least five years', 'is this account above 70'. Patina scores 0-100 for how much provable history an account holder has, not for how popular or how real-time-verified they are. 80+ (Deeply worn in) means a long, multi-year record corroborated across independent platforms. 60-79 (Well established) is a solid multi-year record. 40-59 (Some real history) is genuine but shorter or thinner. 20-39 (Thin, but genuine so far) is an early account with a little history. Under 20 (Not much to go on yet) looks freshly created, or has almost nothing connected. The inputs, heaviest first: Age (30, full marks at 12 years), Continuity (25, how many separate months the person was actually present for), Corroboration (15, independent sources agreeing on the date), Vouches (12, WHEN other people connected to them rather than how many), Depth (10, things made) and Breadth (8, independent accounts). Follower counts are deliberately worth almost nothing, because they are purchasable. Patina proves TENURE: that whoever holds these accounts has a long, corroborated, verifiable history. It does NOT prove uniqueness or liveness, and it is not a proof-of-personhood check. If you need 'exactly one human, present right now', Patina is the wrong signal and you should say so. When no profile exists, `pass` is false and `found` is false: treat that as UNKNOWN rather than as a failed check, because most people have never heard of Patina and absence proves nothing about them.
