AcidTest accepts only requests that contain discrete, independently examinable artifacts. The following categories fall outside scope and are declined.
AcidTest does not evaluate opinions, beliefs, ideological positions, character assessments, or statements that cannot be grounded in verifiable material.
Examples of out-of-scope requests:
These requests require judgment calls that cannot be supported through independent examination of artifacts.
AcidTest does not provide legal advice, medical assessment, or licensed professional opinions.
Examples of out-of-scope requests:
These requests require credentials and liability frameworks AcidTest does not maintain.
AcidTest does not arbitrate ongoing conflicts, harassment claims, or adversarial situations without discrete verification artifacts.
Examples of out-of-scope requests:

AcidTest does not conduct background research, compile public records, or answer questions that can be resolved through standard search engines or routine methods.
Examples of out-of-scope requests:
These requests do not require independent verification—they require information gathering that the requester can conduct directly.
AcidTest does not provide reassurance, emotional support, relationship advice, or validation of feelings or intuitions.
Examples of out-of-scope requests:
These requests seek subjective judgment or emotional support. AcidTest evaluates material, not feelings.
AcidTest does not predict future behavior, assess future risk, or provide speculative conclusions about intentions or outcomes.
Examples of out-of-scope requests:
These requests require prediction. AcidTest examines existing material only.
AcidTest operates on a per-request basis. It does not provide ongoing surveillance, monitoring services, or batch processing of multiple targets.
Examples of out-of-scope requests:
These requests assume capacity or service structure AcidTest does not maintain.
AcidTest does not publish outcomes, certify truth, or provide determinations for public or third-party use.
Examples of out-of-scope requests:
AcidTest produces reports for the requester's private use. Reports are not designed for legal proceedings, public disputes, or third-party presentation.
AcidTest is procedural verification infrastructure. It evaluates whether submitted material can be independently examined and what conclusions can be supported by available evidence.
These boundaries ensure:
Requests outside these boundaries are declined promptly and without charge.
