# 2025-11-05 – Excitor consensus API beta

**Subject:** Excitor consensus export/API preview ships  \
**Audience:** Docs Guild, VEX Lens Guild, Policy Engine Guild, Export Center Guild

- Published `docs/modules/excitor/README.md` update capturing the Link-Not-Merge consensus milestone and pointing to the beta API surface.
- Added `docs/vex/consensus-json.md` sample describing the canonical `consensus_state` payload (`rollupStatus`, `sources[]`, `policyRevisionId`, `consensusDigest`) emitted by the preview endpoint.
- Documented DSSE packaging plus Export Center hooks so attested consensus bundles can ride along with devportal/offline exports once Excitor workers emit DSSE manifests (`docs/modules/export-center/devportal-offline.md`).

**Follow-ups**
- [ ] Coordinate with Policy Engine (`POLICY-ENGINE-30-101`) to reference consensus policy weighting knobs before GA.
- [ ] Produce CLI quickstart once `stella vex consensus` verbs land (CLI backlog `CLI-VEX-30-002`).
