Recovery And Continuation Source

Recovery Path

Receive path (receive_path_v1.ts) performs:

  1. candidate discovery
  2. ownership test
  3. payload decrypt
  4. candidate validation
  5. state persistence and rescan planning

Wrong-key flow is expected to fail closed.

Continuation Source Semantics

Protocol-native follow-on spend source is the latest continuation output:

  • persisted as active continuation source state
  • selected as authoritative protocol source for next hop
  • private note authority maps to right-to-advance for that continuation object

It is not modeled as a separate personal transparent UTXO.

Current Truth

  • continuation lifecycle correctness and prioritization are landed
  • follow-on live path is validated
  • source selection and spent/unspent classification are no longer the dominant blocker class for the current bounded milestone
