Protocol resources
Cite TSEP.
A conclusion in context.
A reference others can find. An outcome others can review. Keep the identifier, version and context when sharing your work.
01 / A precise reference
Cite the control.
Keep its version.
The TSEP@version:TSxx reference follows the protocol’s citation syntax. It is accompanied here by the author, URL and licence. The control page evolves with the website: also retain the pinned source link.

03 / Share an outcome
A conclusion.
Its context.
A template to complete, with no pre-filled outcome. It helps present a conclusion; it is not an executable dossier format.
- Reference
- Assessed control and rules, protocol version, engine edition if used.
- Scope and intent
- URLs, sample, prior expectation, agent, environment and date.
- Evidence
- Originals, sources, dates, fingerprints and required reviews, with authorised access.
- Outcome
- C, NC, NT or NA under the applicable conditions; reasoning linked to evidence.
- Limitations and next step
- Unknowns, exclusions, fixes or missing evidence; responsible person and planned recheck.
An outcome does not extend to unassessed URLs. Missing evidence does not become conformity. Read the four outcomes →
