Experiment overview
What this project is testing
The question, ownership, and evidence boundary in one place.
Current hypothesis
A governed Shopify path can produce reviewable evidence while keeping publication and theme changes under human approval.
This is a prediction to test, not an outcome claim.
Ownership disclosure
We built these sites to test AgentReady on ourselves. Everything we do to grow them is public.
An owner-controlled Shopify proving ground with draft-only AgentReady operation and human publication approval. This is not presented as independent customer proof.
Daily run receipts are missing
This page can prove the publications and product events below. It cannot prove that a planned topic shipped, or explain a no-output run, until the daily operator ledger is added to the public read model.
Published work
What is actually live
Every approved same-domain canonical in the current public feed, newest first.
Publication ledger
3 live canonicals recorded
Newest receipt Jul 2, 2026
These are the articles this public source can prove are live. If a canonical is not in this list, this page does not claim it shipped.

Page measurement kept private
William Painter exposes public article receipts from AgentReady publication records plus site-wide GSC. Titles, same-domain canonicals, and publication dates are public; page-level GSC and all other Store evidence stay private.
Measurements
What the sources observed
Dated product and Search Console observations. Movement is measured since publication, never claimed as caused by it.
Search and publication ledger
William Painter in Google Search Console
Dated site-wide measurements and public article receipts from the connected AgentReady account. Page-level Search Console and private Store evidence remain withheld.

Verified changes
What changed and what happened later
Recommendation records stay separate from editorial publication receipts. Each record shows its recrawl ladder and later observations.
No verified recommendation-change records are available for this project.
Method and limits
How to read this evidence
Known limitations and system gaps stay visible beside the results.
Limitations
- AgentReady operation remains draft-only and every public artifact requires human approval.
- Only approved aggregate evidence is public; private store data and unreviewed drafts remain excluded.
- The storefront disclosure documents ownership and method, not causality or typical outcomes.
Open system gaps
- Durable autonomous cycle records are not in the public read model yet.
