Which category of state transition check provides independently reproducible verification evaluated directly by the host runtime?

Checklist and message checks provide independently reproducible verification because the agent must confirm procedural criteria before state transitions can occur.

Explain the architectural purpose of organizing transition checks into an evidentiary hierarchy in StateM, specifically contrasting how the system handles self-attestations versus objective verification gates.

Match each tier of state transition check in StateM to its operational implementation scenario.

StateM distinguishes transition checks across four distinct tiers of evidentiary strength to prevent structured declarations from being mistaken for verified ___.

Order the state transition check tiers as cataloged in StateM's hierarchy of evidentiary strength, from Tier 1 to Tier 4.

Which tier of state transition check should the team configure to satisfy this sign-off policy, and what specific action does this check type require?

What form of evaluation do LLM review checks provide during a state transition, and what specific guarantee do they lack?
