Reproducible Build

A reproducible build produces identical output when the same source code, dependencies, tools, and build configuration are used again. Independent builders can compare the resulting artifact or hash instead of trusting a publisher's claim about how a binary was created.

Why it matters for TEEs

Remote attestation commonly reports a measurement of the software loaded into a Trusted Execution Environment. A reproducible build connects that measurement back to reviewable source code: rebuild the release, compare the result, and confirm that the attested measurement represents the expected program.

Reproducibility does not prove that source code is secure. It proves that a published artifact corresponds to declared inputs, which makes audits and release verification more meaningful.

TEE Compile applies this model to enclave software and produces an attestation report for the build process.
