As part of #2440 the consensus RPC services worker should expose a read only interface enabling arbitrary consensus state queries. The most straightforward way is to simply expose the existing MKVS ReadSyncer interface which enables a remote client to read state while verifying Merkle proofs.

This allows light clients to query state without having the state available locally.
