PR: docs: improve ProofPath reviewer positioning

What changed

  • Updated README.md with a reviewer-facing 60-second summary.
  • Added docs/reviewer-summary.md.
  • Added docs/grant-updates/security-grant-revision-proofpath-update.md.

Why it matters

ProofPath is being used as a public implementation artifact in grant-review and cybersecurity-review contexts. The repository needs to communicate the core security value quickly to reviewers, cybersecurity researchers, and open-source contributors.

The new documentation emphasizes:

  • ProofPath as a defensive pre-execution gateway;
  • the distinction between valid credentials and valid actions;
  • the fact that ProofPath complements rather than replaces HTTPS/OAuth/IAM/API-key security;
  • the current runnable implementation;
  • current limitations and near-term roadmap.

How to review

  1. Open README.md and check whether the project is understandable within 60 seconds.
  2. Read docs/reviewer-summary.md for a 1–2 page reviewer-facing overview.
  3. Read docs/grant-updates/security-grant-revision-proofpath-update.md for the revised grant-submission record.
  4. Verify that there are no funder endorsement claims and no claim that ProofPath replaces HTTPS.

Test / CI status
