The standard installation path for production use.

Standard install

VERDICT WEIGHT is published on PyPI as verdict-weight.

pip

pip install verdict-weight

Pinning a version

For reproducibility — particularly in regulated or audit-bound environments — pin an exact version:

pip install verdict-weight==X.Y.Z

Replace X.Y.Z with the version you have validated against your deployment. Refer to the PyPI release history for available versions.

Optional extras

Some integrations are gated behind extras to keep the base install lean:

# Install with all optional extras.
pip install "verdict-weight[all]"

# Or pick specific ones.
pip install "verdict-weight[crypto]"
pip install "verdict-weight[benchmarks]"

Extra	Purpose
crypto	Hardware-backed signing for the audit chain (Stream 7).
benchmarks	Reference baselines used in head-to-head comparison.
all	All of the above.

System requirements

Requirement	Minimum
Python	3.10
OS	Linux / macOS / Windows
RAM	512 MB
Disk	50 MB
Network	None at runtime

VERDICT WEIGHT performs no outbound network calls during scoring. It is suitable for air-gapped and classified environments.

Verifying the install
