==Protocol==

{{instance msgdoc|audit|1|<var>audition</var> :[[Audition]]|[[boolean]]}}

{{unspecified message}}

CAUTION: If the auditor uses the [[Audition#ask/1]] method to apply [[stamp]]s, then the auditor '''must''' check that the audition is a genuine system-created Audition or it will be vulnerable to fake auditions which supply the wrong object-examination answers but forward ask/1, or simply steal the stamps and misapply them itself.

Note that under [[guard-based auditing]], the ''as''-auditor of an object is stored in the binding as if the object passed the auditor as a guard; therefore, objects which implement this Auditor protocol as well as the [[Guard]] protocol should make them consistent with each other.
