This working paper introduces HTS-Based Evidence Sealing as a non-executable history-reference and time-based sealing reference framework for the AGI era. Building on Papers 1 through 7 of the AGI Structural Alignment Series, this paper addresses how AI+AGI output histories, human review records, human-discretion records, role-based responsibility references, and multi-layer verification records may correspond to later evidentiary references and time-based sealing references. In this paper, HTS is not defined as a system that automatically confirms evidence, creates legal effect, performs validation, generates states, or assigns responsibility. Rather, HTS is positioned as a time-based sealing reference layer that may preserve the temporal reference of output histories, human-discretion records, role-based responsibility references, and verification records. The paper further aligns HTS with SCD/BIFACE coordinate identifiability, CHOPSTICK-based human discretion, Role Society accountability references, ARI preservation/reference contexts, Multi-Layer Cross Verification, and AGI Output Governance, without allowing HTS to absorb their respective functions. This working paper is Paper 8 of the AGI Structural Alignment Series. This record provides the Expanded Final Publication Edition v2.0 of Paper 8 in the Structural Paper Series under the Research Program on Deterministic Infrastructure and Human-Centered AI Coordination. This version reflects the second expanded publication revision, with unified publication front matter, expanded academic structure, strengthened non-substitution boundaries, and broader cross-domain applicability.
