Checkpoint the current pre-release Phase A work before production
persistence integration continues.
Includes the consolidated transactional metadata SPI, POSIX append-only
metadata log, recovery epochs, mutation codec, state reducer, internal
transaction engine, transactional adapter, staged-content foundations,
and the related current lib/pki changes.
Validated baseline:
- lib tests pass
- focused metadata tests pass
- PMD passes with zero findings
- JavaDoc passes
- app compilation passes
- pki retains exactly 31 independently classified failures:
2 credential snapshot/model cases and 29 revocation fixture/reference
cases
This is a work-in-progress safety checkpoint, not a release-ready
milestone.
