# MCP and Evidence Path

## Evidence path

1. Prefer live Azure evidence when the active client exposes relevant official Microsoft MCP capabilities.
2. Fall back to official Microsoft documentation when live inspection is unavailable, incomplete, or unsafe.
3. Ask only for sanitized scope details when current-state proof matters.
4. Label conclusions as `live evidence`, `documentation-based`, `sanitized user evidence`, or `inference`.

## Platform-agnostic execution

- Keep examples neutral with placeholders until the user's platform and toolchain are known.
- Do not request secrets, tokens, certificates, tenant secrets, or customer identifiers in chat.
