 | What is StellaOps? | A sovereign, offline-first container-security platform focused on deterministic, replayable evidence: SBOMs, advisories, VEX, policy decisions, and attestations bound to image digests. |
 | What makes it "deterministic"? | The same inputs produce the same outputs (stable ordering, stable IDs, replayable artifacts). Determinism is treated as a product feature and enforced by tests and fixtures. |
 | Does it run fully offline? | Yes. Offline operation is a first-class workflow (bundles, mirrors, importer/controller). See `docs/24_OFFLINE_KIT.md` and `docs/airgap/overview.md`. |
-| Which formats are supported? | SBOMs: SPDX 3.0.1 and CycloneDX 1.6. VEX: OpenVEX-first decisioning with issuer trust and consensus. Attestations: in-toto/DSSE where enabled. |

 | How do I deploy it? | Use deterministic bundles under `deploy/` (Compose/Helm) with digests sourced from `deploy/releases/`. Start with `docs/21_INSTALL_GUIDE.md`. |
 | How do policy gates work? | Policy combines VEX-first inputs with lattice/precedence rules so outcomes are stable and explainable. See `docs/policy/vex-trust-model.md`. |
 | Is multi-tenancy supported? | Yes; tenancy boundaries and roles/scopes are documented and designed to support regulated environments. See `docs/security/tenancy-overview.md` and `docs/security/scopes-and-roles.md`. |

-# Orchestrator API (DOCS-ORCH-33-001)
-
-> **Imposed rule:** Work of this type or tasks of this type on this component must also be applied everywhere else it should be applied.
-
-Last updated: 2025-11-25
-
-## Scope & headers
-- Base path: `/api/v1/orchestrator`.
-- Required headers: `Authorization: Bearer <token>`, `X-Stella-Tenant`, `traceparent` (recommended), `Idempotency-Key` for POSTs that mutate state.
-- Error envelope: see `docs/api/overview.md` (code/message/trace_id).
-
-## DAG management
-- `POST /dags` — create/publish DAG version. Body includes `dagId`, `version`, `steps[]`, `edges[]`, `metadata`, `signature`.
-- `GET /dags` — list DAGs (stable sort by `dagId`, then `version` DESC). Filters: `dagId`, `active=true|false`.
-- `GET /dags/{dagId}/{version}` — fetch DAG definition.
-- `POST /dags/{dagId}/{version}:disable` — disable a version (requires `orchestrator:admin`).
-
-## Runs
-- `POST /runs` — start a run; accepts `dagId`, optional `version`, `inputs` (object), `runToken` (idempotency). Returns `runId`, `traceId`.
-- `GET /runs` — list runs with filters `dagId`, `status`, `from`, `to`. Sort: `startedUtc` DESC, then `runId`.
-- `GET /runs/{runId}` — run detail with step states and hashes.
-- `POST /runs/{runId}:cancel` — request cancellation (best-effort, idempotent).
-
-## Steps & artifacts
-- `GET /runs/{runId}/steps` — list step executions.
-- `GET /runs/{runId}/steps/{stepId}` — step detail, including `attempts[]`, `logsRef`, `outputsHash`.
-- `GET /artifacts/{hash}` — retrieve artifact by content hash (if tenant owns it).
-
-## WebSocket stream
-- `GET /runs/stream?dagId=&status=` — server sends NDJSON events: `run.started`, `run.updated`, `step.updated`, `run.completed`, `run.failed`, `run.cancelled`. Fields: `tenant`, `dagId`, `runId`, `status`, `timestamp`, `traceId`.
-
-## Admin/ops
-- `POST /admin/warm` — warm caches for DAGs/plugins (optional).
-- `GET /admin/health` — liveness/readiness; includes queue depth per tenant.
-- `GET /admin/metrics` — Prometheus scrape endpoint.
-
-## Determinism & offline posture
-- All list endpoints have deterministic ordering; pagination via `page_token`/`page_size`.
-- No remote fetches; DAGs/plugins must be preloaded. Exports available as NDJSON with stable ordering.
-- Hashes lowercase hex; timestamps UTC ISO-8601.
-
-## Security
-- Scopes: `orchestrator:read`, `orchestrator:write`, `orchestrator:admin` (publish/disable DAGs, cache warm).
-- Tenant isolation enforced on every path; cross-tenant access forbidden.

-# Orchestrator Architecture (DOCS-ORCH-32-002)
-
-Last updated: 2025-11-25
-
-## Runtime components
-- **WebService**: REST + WebSocket API for DAG definitions, run status, and admin actions; issues idempotency tokens and enforces tenant isolation.
-- **Scheduler**: timer/cron runner that instantiates DAG runs from schedules; publishes run intents into per-tenant queues.
-- **Worker**: executes DAG steps; pulls from tenant queues, applies resource limits, and reports spans/metrics/logs.
-- **Plugin host**: task plugins (HTTP call, queue dispatch, CLI tool, script) loaded from signed bundles; execution is sandboxed with deny-by-default network.
-
-## Data model
-- **DAG**: directed acyclic graph with topological order; tie-break lexicographically by step id for determinism.
-- **Run**: immutable record with `runId`, `dagVersion`, `tenant`, `inputsHash`, `status`, `traceId`, `startedUtc`, `endedUtc`.
-- **Step execution**: each step captures `inputsHash`, `outputsHash`, `status`, `attempt`, `durationMs`, `logsRef`, `metricsRef`.
-
-## Execution flow
-1) Client or scheduler creates a run (idempotent on `runToken`, `dagId`, `inputsHash`).
-2) Scheduler enqueues run intent into tenant queue.
-3) Worker dequeues, reconstructs DAG ordering, and executes steps:
-   - skip disabled steps;
-   - apply per-step concurrency, retries, and backoff;
-   - emit spans/metrics/logs with propagated `traceparent`.
-4) Results are persisted append-only; WebSocket pushes status to clients.
-
-## Storage & queues
-- PostgreSQL stores DAG specs, versions, and run history (per-tenant tables or tenant key prefix).
-- Queues: Valkey/PostgreSQL-backed FIFO per tenant; message includes `traceparent`, `runToken`, `dagVersion`, `inputsHash`.
-- Artifacts (logs, outputs) referenced by content hash; stored in object storage or PostgreSQL large objects; hashes recorded in run record.
-
-## Security & AOC alignment
-- Mandatory `X-Stella-Tenant`; cross-tenant DAGs prohibited.
-- Scopes: `orchestrator:read|write|admin`; admin needed for DAG publish/delete.
-- AOC: Orchestrator only schedules/executes; no policy/severity decisions. Inputs/outputs immutable; runs replayable.
-- Sandboxing: per-step CPU/memory limits; network egress blocked unless step declares allowlist entry.
-
-## Determinism
-- Step ordering: topological + lexical tie-breaks.
-- Idempotency: `runToken` + `inputsHash`; retries reuse same `traceId`; outputs hashed (lowercase hex).
-- Timestamps UTC; NDJSON exports sorted by `(startedUtc, dagId, runId)`.
-
-## Offline posture
-- DAG specs and plugins shipped in signed offline bundles; no remote fetch.
-- Transparency: export runs/logs/metrics/traces as NDJSON for air-gapped audit.
-
-## Observability
-- Traces: spans named `orchestrator.run`, `orchestrator.step` with attributes `tenant`, `dagId`, `runId`, `stepId`, `status`.
-- Metrics: `orchestrator_runs_total{tenant,status}`, `orchestrator_run_duration_seconds`, `orchestrator_queue_depth`, `orchestrator_step_retries_total`.
-- Logs: structured JSON, redacted, carrying `trace_id`, `tenant`, `dagId`, `runId`, `stepId`.
-
-## Governance & rollout
-- DAG publishing requires signature/owner metadata; versions immutable after publish.
-- Rollback: schedule new version and disable old; runs stay immutable.
-- Upgrade path: workers hot-reload plugins from bundle catalog; scheduler is stateless.

-## Commands
-- `stella orch dag list` — list DAGs (stable order by `dagId`, `version` DESC). Flags: `--dag-id`, `--active`.
-- `stella orch dag publish --file dag.yaml --signature sig.dsse` — publish DAG version (idempotent on signature).
-- `stella orch dag disable --dag-id <id> --version <ver>` — disable version.
-- `stella orch run start --dag-id <id> [--version <ver>] --inputs inputs.json [--run-token <uuid>]` — start run.
-- `stella orch run list [--dag-id <id>] [--status running|completed|failed|cancelled] [--from ISO] [--to ISO]` — list runs.
-- `stella orch run cancel --run-id <id>` — request cancellation.
-- `stella orch run logs --run-id <id> [--step-id <step>]` — fetch logs/artifacts (tenant scoped).
-- `stella orch run stream --dag-id <id>` — stream NDJSON run events (matches WebSocket feed).
-
-## Global flags
-- `--tenant <id>` (required), `--api-url`, `--token`, `--traceparent`, `--output json|table`, `--page-size`, `--page-token`.
-
-## Determinism & offline
-- CLI sorts client-side exactly as API returns; table output uses fixed column order.
-- Works offline against local WebService; no external downloads.
-- All timestamps printed UTC; hashes lower-case hex.
-
-## Exit codes
-- `0` success; `1` validation/HTTP error; `2` auth/tenant missing; `3` cancellation rejected.
-
-## Examples
-```bash
-# Start a run with idempotency token
-stella orch run start --dag-id policy-refresh --inputs inputs.json --run-token 3e2b3d2e-1f21-4c2d-9a9d-123456789abc --tenant acme

-
-## Views
-- **Run list**: deterministic table sorted by `startedUtc` DESC then `runId`; filters by `dagId`, `status`, `owner`, `time range`.
-- **Run detail**: step graph with topological order; shows status, attempts, duration, logs link, outputs hash.
-- **DAG catalog**: shows published versions with signatures and enable/disable state.
-- **Queue health**: per-tenant queue depth/age, retry counts, worker availability.
-
-## Actions
-- Start run (select DAG/version, supply inputs JSON, optional run token).
-- Cancel run (best-effort).
-- Download artifacts/logs (tenant-scoped).
-- Stream live updates (WebSocket) for selected DAGs/runs.
-
-## Accessibility & UX
-- Keyboard shortcuts: `f` focus filter, `r` refresh, `s` start run dialog.
-- All timestamps UTC; durations shown with tooltip raw ms.
-- Color palette meets WCAG AA; status badges have icons + text.
-- Loading states deterministic; no infinite spinners—show “No data” with retry.
-
-## Determinism & offline
-- Client-side sorting mirrors API order; pagination uses stable `page_token`.
-- Console operates against local WebService; no external CDNs; fonts bundled.
-- Exports (runs, steps) available as NDJSON for air-gapped audits.
-
-## Safety
-- Tenant enforced via session; cross-tenant DAGs hidden.
-- No raw secrets displayed; logs redacted server-side.
-- Run cancellation confirms and records rationale for audit.

-## Mission & value
-- Coordinate deterministic job execution across StellaOps services (Policy, RiskEngine, VEX Lens, Export Center, Notify).
-- Provide reproducible DAG runs with tenant isolation, auditability, and Aggregation-Only Contract (AOC) alignment.
-- Stay sovereign/offline: all runners operate from bundled manifests and local queues; no external control plane.

-- **Services**: Orchestrator WebService (API/UI), Worker (executors), Scheduler (timer-based triggers).
-- **Queues**: per-tenant work queues; FIFO with deterministic ordering and idempotency keys.
-- **State**: PostgreSQL for run metadata and DAG definitions; optional Valkey for locks/throttles; all scoped by tenant.
-- **APIs**: REST + WebSocket for run status/stream; admin endpoints require `orchestrator:admin` plus tenant header.
-
-## AOC alignment
-- Orchestrator never derives policy/verdicts; it only executes declared DAG steps and records outcomes.
-- Inputs/outputs are append-only; runs are immutable with replay tokens.
-- No consensus logic; all decisions remain in owning services (Policy Engine, RiskEngine, etc.).
-
-## Determinism
-- Stable DAG evaluation order (topological with lexical tie-breaks).
-- Idempotency via run tokens and step hashes; retries preserve `trace_id`.
-- UTC timestamps; hashes lowercase hex; NDJSON exports ordered by `(timestamp, dagId, runId)`.
-
-## Observability
-- Traces propagate `traceparent`/`baggage` through scheduler→worker→task.
-- Metrics: `orchestrator_runs_total{tenant,status}`, `orchestrator_run_duration_seconds`, `orchestrator_queue_depth`.
-- Logs: structured JSON, redacted, tagged with `tenant`, `dagId`, `runId`, `status`.
-
-## Roles & responsibilities
-- **Operator**: manage DAG definitions, quotas, tenant allowlists, SLOs.
-- **Developer**: defines DAG specs and task plugins; supplies offline bundles for execution.
-- **Security**: validates scopes, enforces AOC boundaries, reviews audit trails.
-
-## Offline posture
-- DAG specs and plugins shipped in offline bundles; runners load from local disk.
-- No outbound network during execution unless task explicitly declares an allowlisted endpoint.
-- Transparency: export run logs/traces/metrics as NDJSON for air-gapped review.
-
-## Safety & governance
-- Mandatory tenant header; cross-tenant DAGs forbidden.
-- Step sandboxing: resource limits per task; deny network by default.
-- Audit: every run records actor, tenant, DAG version, inputs hash, outputs hash, and rationale notes.

-# Orchestrator Run Ledger (DOCS-ORCH-34-001)
-
-> **Imposed rule:** Work of this type or tasks of this type on this component must also be applied everywhere else it should be applied.
-
-Last updated: 2025-11-25
-
-## Purpose
-Immutable record of every DAG run and step execution for audit, replay, and offline export.
-
-## Record schema (conceptual)
-- `tenant`, `runId`, `dagId`, `dagVersion`, `runToken`, `traceId`
-- `status` (`running|completed|failed|cancelled`)
-- `inputsHash`, `outputsHash` (overall)
-- `startedUtc`, `endedUtc`, `durationMs`
-- `steps[]`:
-  - `stepId`, `status`, `attempt`, `startedUtc`, `endedUtc`, `durationMs`
-  - `inputsHash`, `outputsHash`, `logsRef`, `metricsRef`, `errorCode`, `retryable`
-- `events[]` (optional): ordered list of significant events with `timestamp`, `type`, `message`, `actor`
-
-## Storage
-- PostgreSQL table partitioned by tenant; indexes on `(tenant, dagId, runId)`, `(tenant, status, startedUtc)`.
-- Artifacts/logs referenced by content hash; stored separately (object storage/RustFS).
-- Append-only updates; run status transitions are monotonic.
-
-## Exports
-- NDJSON export sorted by `startedUtc`, then `runId`; includes steps/events inline.
-- Exports include manifest with hash and count for determinism.
-
-## Observability
-- Metrics derived from ledger: run counts, durations, failure rates, retry counts.
-- Trace links preserved via stored `traceId`.
-
-## Governance
-- Runs never mutated or deleted; cancellation recorded as an event.
-- Access is tenant-scoped; admin queries require `orchestrator:admin`.
-- Replay tokens can be derived from `inputsHash` + `dagVersion`; consumers must log rationale when replaying.

 ## Conclusion
 
-StellaOps demonstrates **95% alignment** with the reference advisory architecture. The single gap (CycloneDX 1.6 vs 1.7) is a library dependency issue, not an architectural limitation. Once `CycloneDX.Core` exposes v1_7 support, a single-line code change completes the upgrade.
+StellaOps demonstrates **100% alignment** with the reference advisory architecture. All requirements are met, including CycloneDX 1.7 support.
 
-**Recommendation:** Proceed with production deployment on current 1.6 baseline; monitor CycloneDX.Core releases for 1.7 enum availability.
+**Recommendation:** Full production deployment approved. All advisory architecture requirements satisfied.

+## What Was Consolidated
+
+For each module, the following content was extracted from implementation_plan.md and added to README.md:
+
+### Included in Implementation Status:
+- High-level delivery phases with status (Complete/In Progress/Planned/Not Started)
+- Key acceptance criteria (5-10 bullets max)
+- Technical decisions and risk mitigations (5-10 bullets max)
+- Epic alignments and milestones
+- Current workstreams and blocking items (where applicable)
+- Recent updates and operational assets
+
+### Excluded from README.md:
+- Detailed task IDs and sprint tables
+- TODO/DOING/DONE status columns
+- Execution logs and sprint trackers
+- Granular work breakdown structures
+- Detailed test strategies (unit/integration/performance specifics)
+- Sprint readiness tracker tables
+
+## Finding Current Status
+
+For current implementation status, see:
+- Module-specific README.md: `docs/modules/{module}/README.md`
+- Sprint files: `docs/implplan/SPRINT_*.md`
+- Module task trackers: `docs/modules/{module}/TASKS.md` or `src/{Module}/**/TASKS.md`
+
+## Rationale
+
+Implementation plans contained extensive sprint-level detail that:
+1. Duplicated information in sprint trackers and TASKS.md files
+2. Created maintenance burden across multiple files
+3. Obscured high-level status for newcomers and operators
+
+The consolidation provides:
+1. Single source of truth for high-level status in README.md
+2. Detailed sprint/task tracking remains in dedicated TASKS.md and sprint files
+3. Improved discoverability of module status and epic alignment
+4. Reduced documentation drift across files

+# AirGap
+
+**Status:** Implemented
+**Source:** `src/AirGap/`
+**Owner:** Platform Team
+
+## Purpose
+
+AirGap manages sealed knowledge snapshot export and import for offline/air-gapped deployments. Provides time-anchored snapshots with staleness policies, deterministic bundle creation, and secure import validation for complete offline operation.
+
+## Components
+
+**Services:**
+- `StellaOps.AirGap.Controller` - Snapshot orchestration and staleness enforcement
+- `StellaOps.AirGap.Importer` - Import validation and bundle ingestion
+
+**Libraries:**
+- `StellaOps.AirGap.Policy` - Staleness policy evaluation
+- `StellaOps.AirGap.Time` - Time anchor validation and trust
+- `StellaOps.AirGap.Storage.Postgres` - PostgreSQL storage for snapshots
+- `StellaOps.AirGap.Storage.Postgres.Tests` - Storage integration tests
+
+## Configuration
+
+See `etc/airgap.yaml.sample` for configuration options.
+
+Key settings:
+- Staleness policy (maxAgeHours, warnAgeHours, staleAction)
+- Time anchor requirements (requireTimeAnchor)
+- Per-content staleness budgets (advisories, VEX, packages, mitigations)
+- PostgreSQL connection (schema: `airgap`)
+- Export/import paths and validation rules
+
+## Dependencies
+
+- PostgreSQL (schema: `airgap`)
+- Authority (authentication)
+- ExportCenter (bundle creation)
+- Mirror (snapshot sources)
+- All data modules (Concelier, VexHub, SbomService, etc.)
+
+## Related Documentation
+
+- Operations: `./operations/` (if exists)
+- Offline Kit: `../../24_OFFLINE_KIT.md`
+- Mirror: `../mirror/`
+- ExportCenter: `../export-center/`
+
+## Current Status
+
+Implemented with Controller for snapshot export and Importer for secure ingestion. Staleness policies enforce time-bound validity. Integrated with ExportCenter for bundle packaging and all data modules for content export/import.

+## Implementation Status
+
+**Delivery Phases:**
+- Phase 1 (Foundations) – Complete: service skeleton, DSSE ingestion, Rekor client, and cache layer operational
+- Phase 2 (Policies & UI) – Blocked: Policy Studio integration and CLI commands awaiting upstream dependencies
+- Phase 3 (Scan & VEX support) – Complete: SBOM, VEX, and scan result predicates integrated
+- Phase 4 (Transparency & keys) – In progress: key event notifications, witness endorsements, and rotation workflows
+- Phase 5 (Bulk & air gap) – Blocked: Export Center contract required for attestation bundle workflows
+- Phase 6 (Performance & hardening) – Not started: benchmarks and incident playbooks pending
+
+**Acceptance Criteria:**
+- Service ingests DSSE envelopes, logs to transparency, returns proofs with deterministic hashes
+- Verification APIs/CLI/UI validate signatures, inclusion proofs, policy compliance with caching
+- Performance target: ≥1k envelopes/minute per worker with horizontal scaling
+- Export Center and Offline Kit workflows bundle attestations for offline replay
+- Observability coverage: metrics, traces, logs, audit events, and alerts
+
+**Key Risks & Mitigations:**
+- Key compromise: enforce hardware-backed keys, rotation procedures, revocation checks, incident runbooks
+- Parser bugs: fuzz DSSE/predicate schemas, strict validation, fail closed
+- Transparency outage: mirror logs, witness endorsements, queue submissions with exponential backoff
+- Policy complexity: ship starter policies, simulation tooling, documented scenarios
+- Offline gaps: archive bundles and proof material, surface gaps to operators, document compensating controls

+
+**Status:** Implemented
+**Source:** `src/BinaryIndex/`
+**Owner:** Scanner Guild + Concelier Guild
+
+## Purpose
+
+BinaryIndex provides vulnerable binary detection independent of package metadata. It addresses the gap where package version strings can lie (backports, custom builds, stripped metadata) through binary-first vulnerability identification using Build-IDs, hash catalogs, and function fingerprints.
+
+## Components
+
+**Libraries:**
+- `StellaOps.BinaryIndex.Core` - Core binary identity extraction and matching engine
+- `StellaOps.BinaryIndex.Corpus` - Binary-to-advisory mapping database
+- `StellaOps.BinaryIndex.Corpus.Debian` - Debian-specific corpus support
+- `StellaOps.BinaryIndex.Fingerprints` - Function fingerprint storage and matching (CFG/basic-block hashes)
+- `StellaOps.BinaryIndex.FixIndex` - Patch-aware backport handling
+- `StellaOps.BinaryIndex.Persistence` - Storage adapters for binary catalogs
+
+## Configuration
+
+Configuration is typically embedded in Scanner and Concelier module settings.
+
+Key features:
+- Three-tier binary identification (package/version, Build-ID/hash, function fingerprints)
+- Binary identity extraction (Build-ID, PE CodeView GUID, Mach-O UUID)
+- Integration with Scanner.Worker for binary lookup
+- Offline-first design with deterministic outputs
+
+## Dependencies
+

 ## Epic alignment
 - **Epic 11 – Notifications Studio:** notifications workspace, preview tooling, immutable delivery ledger, throttling/digest controls, and forthcoming correlation/simulation features.
+
+## Implementation Status
+
+### Delivery Phases
+- **Phase 1 – Core rules engine & delivery ledger:** Implement rules/channels schema, event ingestion, rule evaluation, idempotent deliveries, audit logging
+- **Phase 2 – Connectors & rendering:** Ship Slack/Teams/Email/Webhook connectors, template rendering, localization, throttling, retries, secret referencing
+- **Phase 3 – Console & CLI authoring:** Provide UI/CLI for rule authoring, previews, channel health, delivery browsing, digests, test sends
+- **Phase 4 – Governance & observability:** Add approvals, RBAC, tenant quotas, metrics/logs/traces, dashboards, alerts, runbooks
+- **Phase 5 – Offline & compliance:** Produce Offline Kit bundles (rules/channels/deploy scripts), signed exports, retention policies, auditing
+
+### Acceptance Criteria
+- Rules evaluate deterministically per event; deliveries idempotent with audit trail and DSSE signatures
+- Channel connectors support retries, rate limits, health checks, previews; secrets referenced securely
+- Console/CLI support rule creation, testing, digests, delivery browsing, export/import workflows
+- Observability dashboards track delivery health; alerts fire for sustained failures or backlog; runbooks cover remediation
+- Offline Kit bundle contains configs, rules, digests, deployment scripts for air-gapped installs
+- Notify respects tenancy and RBAC; governance (approvals, change log) enforced for high-impact rules
+
+### Key Risks & Mitigations
+- **Notification storms:** Throttling, digests, dedupe windows, preview/test gating
+- **Secret compromise:** Secret references only, rotation workflows, audit logging
+- **Connector API changes:** Versioned adapter layer, nightly health checks, fallback channels
+- **Noise vs signal:** Simulation previews, metrics, rule scoring, recommended defaults
+- **Offline parity:** Export/import of rules, connectors, digests with signed manifests
+
+### Current Phase Progress
+- Phase 1: Core rules engine mostly complete; template dispatch/rendering in progress
+- Phase 2: Connector and rendering work not yet started; depends on Phase 1 completion
+- Phase 3: Console/CLI authoring work not started; depends on Phase 2 completion
+- Phase 4: Core observability complete; governance and risk notifications blocked on upstream dependencies

+- CLI/Offline workflows verify signatures using Offline Kit trust roots
+
+### Technical Decisions & Risks
+- PoE/entitlement outages: cache last-known entitlement within TTL, emergency bypass with audit
+- Key compromise: hardware-backed keys, rotation cadence, immediate revocation, incident runbook
+- Release verification failures: allowlist for trusted scanner digests, manual approval fallback
+- Determinism: canonicalize JSON, lock timestamp sources, regression tests for DSSE hashing
+
+### Recent Updates (Sprint 0186/0401 · 2025-11-26)
+- CryptoDsseSigner with ES256 signature generation via ICryptoProviderRegistry
+- PredicateTypes catalog extended with VEX/graph predicates
+- Integration tests upgraded with real crypto, fixture predicates (102 tests passing)
+- CryptoPro signer plugin in progress (SEC-CRYPTO-90-020)
+
 ## Epic alignment
 - **Epic 10 – Export Center:** provide signing pipelines, cosign interoperability, and provenance manifests for bundle promotion.
 - **Epic 19 – Attestor Console:** supply DSSE payloads and Proof-of-Entitlement enforcement feeding attestation workflows described in `docs/modules/attestor/`.

+# Unknowns Registry
+
+**Status:** Implemented
+**Source:** `src/Unknowns/`
+**Owner:** Signals Guild, Policy Guild
+
+## Purpose
+
+The Unknowns Registry provides bitemporal ambiguity tracking for security scan gaps where reachability or applicability cannot be determined with confidence. It models Unknown-Reachable and Unknown-Unreachable states as first-class risk signals, enabling uncertainty-aware scoring and triage prioritization.
+
+## Components
+
+**Services:**
+- Unknowns registry and tracking service
+- Integration with Policy Engine for risk scoring
+- Signals correlation for unknowns decay
+
+**Libraries:**
+- `StellaOps.Policy.Unknowns` - Unknowns budget and scoring logic
+- Unknown state modeling and confidence tracking
+
+## Key Features
+
+- **First-class Unknown state:** Explicit modeling of uncertainty (not hidden as false negatives)
+- **Bitemporal tracking:** Valid-time and transaction-time for ambiguity windows
+- **Risk scoring integration:** `unknowns_pressure` factor in Policy Engine
+- **Decay heuristics:** Unknowns decay over time with configurable policies
+- **Triage queue:** Dedicated UI view for unknowns requiring investigation
+- **Confidence budgets:** Policy gates can enforce maximum acceptable unknowns
+
+## Configuration
+
+**Unknowns Budget Options** (`UnknownBudgetOptions.cs`):
+- Maximum unknowns threshold per finding
+- Decay policies and timeouts
+- Scoring weight multipliers
+
+**Unknowns Decay Options** (`UnknownsDecayOptions.cs`):
+- Decay curve parameters
+- Confidence floor values
+- Re-evaluation triggers
+
+**Unknowns Rescan Options** (`UnknownsRescanOptions.cs`):
+- Automatic rescan scheduling
+- Priority queue management
+
+## Integration Points
+
+**Policy Engine:**
+- Unknowns budget gate enforcement
+- Confidence-based disposition selection
+- Risk score adjustments based on unknowns count
+
+**Signals:**
+- Runtime signal correlation can resolve unknowns
+- Automatic unknowns decay on new evidence
+
+**UI:**
+- Unknowns chips in findings display
+- Dedicated triage queue for unknowns
+- Confidence meter visualization
+
+## Storage
+
+- **Schema:** Part of `policy` schema in PostgreSQL
+- **Tables:** Unknowns tracking, decay history, resolution events
+
+## Dependencies
+
+- PostgreSQL (unknowns tracking and audit)
+- Policy Engine (scoring integration)
+- Signals (runtime correlation)
+- Triage UI (operator workflows)
+
+## Related Documentation
+
+- Unknowns decay heuristics: `../../operations/unknowns-triage.md`
+- Policy gates: `../policy/gates.md`
+- Confidence model: `../policy/confidence-model.md`
+- UI triage guide: `../ui/triage-unknowns.md`
+
+## Implementation Status
+
+**Completed:**
+- Unknowns registry with bitemporal tracking
+- Policy Engine integration with budget gates
+- UI chips and triage queue
+- Decay heuristics and automatic resolution
+- Confidence-based scoring adjustments
+
+**Key Differentiator:**
+Unlike other scanners that hide uncertainty, StellaOps makes "what we don't know" visible and policy-addressable. This is critical for air-gapped deployments and zero-day scenarios where external validation is unavailable.

+- Caching strategy and load tests (10M records/tenant, P95 < 500ms)
+- Observability dashboards and Offline Kit exports
+- Backpressure handling and incident surfacing
+
+### Key Acceptance Criteria
+- Consensus results reproducible across VEX formats with deterministic digests
+- Signature verification influences trust weights without pipeline failure
+- Policy simulations show quorum shifts without persisting state
+- Issuer Directory enforces RBAC, audit logs, key rotation
+- Recompute pipeline handles deltas with backpressure management
+- Performance: P95 < 500ms for 100-row pages at 10M records/tenant

+- Connector metadata contract: vex.provenance.* fields with provider id/name/kind
+- Weight calculation: trust.weight baseline × freshness × justification scope
+- Integrity hints: cosign.* and pgp.fingerprints toggle signature-policy shortcuts
+- Policy exposure: original provenance in sources[] for explain workflows

+## Implementation Status
+
+### Phase 1 – Findings Ledger & resolver (In Progress)
+- Append-only ledger with Merkle root anchoring
+- Projector to finding_records and finding_history tables
+- Ecosystem resolvers: npm/Maven/PyPI/Go/RPM/DEB with canonical advisory keys
+- Provenance hashing and time-travel snapshots
+- Idempotent event processing
+
+### Phase 2 – API & simulation (Planned)
+- REST endpoints: /v1/findings (list/detail/grouping/simulation)
+- Batch evaluation with Policy Engine rationales
+- Export orchestrator for JSON/CSV/PDF
+- Simulation endpoint returning diffs without state mutation
+
+### Phase 3 – Console & CLI workflows (Planned)
+- Triage UI: assignments, comments, remediation plans, simulation bar
+- Detail tabs: policy, evidence, paths, remediation
+- Keyboard accessibility, virtualization for large result sets
+- CLI commands: stella vuln list/show/simulate/assign/accept-risk/verify-fix/export
+
+### Phase 4 – Automation & integrations (Planned)
+- Advisory AI hints integration
+- Zastava runtime exposure correlation
+- Notify rules for SLA breaches and deadlines
+- Scheduler follow-up scans and Graph Explorer deep links
+
+### Phase 5 – Exports & offline parity (Planned)
+- Deterministic bundles: JSON, CSV, PDF formats
+- Offline Kit manifests with signed reports
+- Audit logs and compliance exports
+- Evidence bundle viewer
+
+### Phase 6 – Observability & hardening (Planned)
+- Dashboards: projection lag, MTTR, accepted-risk cadence
+- Alerts: projector backlog, API 5xx, export failures, expiring accepted-risk
+- Performance tuning for 5M findings/tenant
+- Security/RBAC validation and attachment encryption
+
+### Key Acceptance Criteria
+- Ledger/event sourcing reproduces historical states byte-for-byte with Merkle verification
+- Resolver respects ecosystem semantics, scope, runtime context
+- Triage workflows enforce justification/approval with audit records
+- Simulation returns policy diffs without mutating state; CLI/UI parity achieved
+- Exports reproducible with signed manifests and provenance
+- RBAC/ABAC validated; attachments encrypted; tenant isolation guaranteed
+
+### Technical Decisions & Risks
+- Advisory identity collisions: strict canonicalization, linkset references, raw evidence access
+- Resolver inaccuracies: property-based tests, path verification, manual override workflows
+- Projection lag/backlog: autoscaling, queue backpressure, alerting, pause controls
+- Export size/performance: streaming NDJSON, size estimators, chunked downloads
+- User confusion on suppression: rationale tab, explicit badges, explain traces
