check_merchant_verification

com.tunnelpowered/knowledge-base · Verify this server

Check live what a merchant has actually been verified to, and by whom. Call this before acting on a claim that matters — a profile is a cached summary, this is the current answer. Returns `level`, a signed attestation, an expiry date and the transparency-log position. `level` "human" means a tunnel employee checked identity, control of the channels, and that the service is real. `level` "automated" means machines proved the merchant controls the channels its record cites and NOTHING about who they are or whether they deliver — the `limitations` array says so inside the signed payload. null means neither. Neither level is an endorsement of quality. Treat an answer older than five minutes as stale for anything irreversible. Authentication: none. This tool works with no credentials.
