Plan: chain-v2 external anchor authority — WORM-tier trust model (#1278, epic &73)
On this page
Placeholder — the full design is authored under this plan in plan mode, through the mandated
independent contextless review rounds, before implementation begins (do not implement against a
first-draft plan). The ratified ARCHITECTURE CONTRACT is
ADR-014 Amendment 11 (WORM capability
tier; supersedes the immutable Amendment 10). This plan supersedes the deferred
v2 "enumerable transparency frontier" plan, whose recon facts and
finding history remain available there. A contextless implementer reads ADR-014 Amendments 5–11 first;
this plan will own the byte-level design the ADR delegates (store hardening, the anchor crates + key
identity at ANCHOR_MANIFEST_VERSION→2 / ANCHOR_SIGNING_VERSION→2, the substrate reshape, the
separate emitter deployable, and the confirmer + cross-DB genesis saga).

1 |
Author the WORM-tier implementation plan to the Amendment 11 contract — every requirement at byte level — iterated through the independent contextless review rounds in plan mode until a fresh reviewer finds nothing material; then split into an epic + child issues (requirement→issue matrix + dependency DAG + the explicit #1279 cutover-blocker gate). |

2 |
Implement the children (one MR per child; the WORM-tier + multi-backend certification gate). |

Epic: &73
Issue: #1278 (critical) — the last code-side blocker for the #1279 cutover; blocks #1279, #1280
