Check off exploration 0243 (account validation & recovery — complete)#342
Merged
Conversation
All 13 implementation + 9 validation items resolved across 17 PRs. P3.1 (custodial escrow) is recorded as a deliberate DECISION to decline — it would make xNet coercible — in favor of the non-coercible social-recovery (guardians) path, per the Apple-reframed design note. Renames the exploration [_] -> [x] and adds a Resolution summary of everything that shipped. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.8 <noreply@anthropic.com> Signed-off-by: xNet Test <test@xnet.dev>

Marks exploration 0243 complete: renames
[_]→[x], records a Resolution summary of everything shipped, and reframes the last item (P3.1) from "implement custodial escrow" to a documented decision to decline it.Why P3.1 is "done" by being declined
A WorkOS-gated KMS escrow that recovers from a login alone would make xNet coercible — a subpoena or a compromised WorkOS account would reach user data, the opposite of this exploration's guarantee. Following Apple's model (ADP holds no key; recovery via a user-held key + recovery contacts), we shipped the non-coercible alternative instead — configurable trusted-guardian social recovery (Shamir; #337/#339/#341), entirely user-to-user. A privacy-preserving escrow engine (#335) remains for a future Apple-grade ZK-PIN + rate-limiting-HSM design if a concrete enterprise need ever arises; the naive custodial variant is intentionally not built.
