Try it — sandbox: every call answers a deterministic, provenance-labeled simulated payload ({ environment, simulated } in the body). Force any documented outcome with the magic triggers. Going live is a connect, never a ballot: submit the credential at integrates.vin (dealer systems) or connects.vin (consumer accounts) — submissions enter the activation queue and rank live rollout.
Emits — Consignment.listed@1.

The consignment workflow
consignment · GET /workflows/consignment · gate key · sandbox · answers Deal@1
The workflow shares this address because its name IS this noun's slug — one namespace, one page (the wire name is the DOI). It is a composition of standalone acts over the grid: delete the workflow and every leaf still transacts on its own address.
| Field | Type | Required | Notes |
|---|---|---|---|
workflow | string | yes | const consignment |
vin | string | yes | — |
dealType | string | no | const CONSIGNMENT |
consignor | object | no | party ref pty_… |
authority | string | no | mnd_… — required when delegated |
