Check the execution record
Look for a tool call with a recorded result, a stable receipt identifier, and a public verification path. Open the record instead of relying only on a completion message in chat.
What a verifiable receipt does not prove
The receipt check concerns the saved record. It does not show that a model reasoned correctly or that another system accepted a request unless that system supplies separate evidence.
