Watch-only descriptor wallets, external signers, multisig, air-gap transport
and honest LND limits — a spec a future /gsd-plan-phase can consume.
- Names the current gap: bitcoin.rs:203 passes disable_private_keys=false and
bitcoin.rs:229-231 imports wpkh(xprv/...), so Core holds the BIP-84 account
PRIVATE key today. Closing that is Phase 1 and unblocks everything else
- Full Core RPC loop with wallet- vs node-scoped RPCs; analyzepsbt drives UI
- Tier 1 single-sig with mandatory [fingerprint/derivation] key origin; Tier 2
wsh(sortedmulti) on BIP-48; taproot/MuSig2 deferred as UNVERIFIED
- BC-UR v2 primary (fountain-coded, degrades gracefully), BBQr for Coldcard,
file fallback always; animated multi-frame is mandatory, not optional
- LND: channel/revocation/HTLC keys CANNOT be air-gapped; funding tx must
NEVER be self-broadcast (type-level refusal, not a boolean)
- On-chain (PSBT-protectable) vs lightning (necessarily hot) split, with the
exact user-facing sentence the UI must use
- Hot wallet kept as explicitly-secondary with server-enforced limits; safe
path is the DEFAULT, per T1's survivors
- Migration section refuses to over-alarm: the audit found no entropy defect,
so no Archipelago user needs to rotate a seed
- 7 phases with dependencies, candidate requirements, and hardware gating
- Answers two open items in docs/hardware-signer-design.md
- Flags bitcoin-knots:latest as an unpinned tag vs ADR-009

Evidence-backed audit of every secret class against the real tree, prompted
by the 2026-07-30 Coinkite COLDCARD entropy incident.
- No Coldcard-class entropy defect exists: no non-cryptographic PRNG, no
clock-seeded key, no Math.random() in any browser key path
- F-01 (Critical, NOT entropy): seed.generate/seed.restore are unauthenticated,
unrated, and unconditionally overwrite a live node's Ed25519/Nostr/FIPS keys
- F-02 [ARCHY-1] CONFIRMED: mnemonic entropy source is a bip39 transitive
default, not a call-site argument — the exact structural shape of T1
- F-03 (High) [ARCHY-3]: first-boot TLS/SSH regeneration is fail-open and its
completion marker is set even on failure, over a fleet-shared cached rootfs
- ARCHY-2 confirmed good; ARCHY-5 refuted as a present defect (32 | 256)
- Argon2::default() is 19MiB/t=2, not ADR-005's stated 64MB/3
- Corrects the scoping assumption that image-recipe/_archived/ is dead: it is
the live ISO builder, exec'd by build-debian-iso.sh
- Adds a "What we do right" section and an UNVERIFIED on-node checklist
