-For Valkey mode, the server reads `CHRONOSEAL_VALKEY_ADDR` and defaults to `127.0.0.1:6666` when it is not set. If the Valkey connection fails, the current implementation falls back to in-memory SQLite and logs a warning.
+For Valkey mode, the server reads `CHRONOSEAL_VALKEY_ADDR` (defaulting to `127.0.0.1:6666`) and establishes a thread-safe connection pool using `r2d2` and the `redis` client crate. It leverages native Valkey sets for session ID indexing and native key expiration for automatic session cleanup. If the Valkey connection fails, the server falls back to in-memory SQLite and logs a warning.
+
+### Valkey / Redis Server Setup
+
+To quickly run a local Valkey/Redis instance for testing or production:
+
+```bash
+# Option A: Start a local Valkey/Redis server on port 6666
+valkey-server --port 6666 --bind 127.0.0.1
+# Or
+redis-server --port 6666 --bind 127.0.0.1
+
+# Option B: Spin up via Docker
+docker run -d --name chronoseal-valkey -p 6666:6379 valkey/valkey:latest
+```
+
+Configure ChronoSeal to use it:
+```bash
+export CHRONOSEAL_DB_TYPE=valkey
+export CHRONOSEAL_VALKEY_ADDR=127.0.0.1:6666
+```
+
+If your Valkey or Redis server requires credentials or secure TLS:
+* **Password Only**: `redis://:your_password@127.0.0.1:6666`
+* **Username & Password**: `redis://your_username:your_password@127.0.0.1:6666`

+
+## Runtime Footprint
+
+ChronoSeal is intentionally designed to maintain a small deployment footprint while providing browser attestation, cryptographic verification, session continuity, and WASM execution capabilities.
+
+Typical v1.0.2 release artifact sizes:
+
+| Component                                       | Approximate Size |
+| ----------------------------------------------- | ---------------: |
+| Native daemon (`chronoseal`)                    |         ~9.1 MiB |
+| Browser runtime (`chronoseal_wasm.wasm`)        |         ~728 KiB |
+| WASM static library (`libchronoseal_wasm.rlib`) |         ~188 KiB |
+
+Example:
+
+```text
+chronoseal
+9501232 bytes
+≈ 9.06 MiB
+
+chronoseal_wasm.wasm
+745569 bytes
+≈ 728 KiB
+```
+
+These compact artifact sizes help:
+
+* reduce deployment overhead
+* minimize container image growth
+* improve cold-start performance
+* reduce browser download size
+* simplify edge and self-hosted deployments
+
+ChronoSeal intentionally avoids heavyweight runtime dependencies and large browser frameworks, allowing the complete attestation stack to remain compact while preserving functionality.

@@ -68,6 +68,165 @@ Release binary:
 ```text
 target/release/chronoseal
 ```
+## Binary Hardening Verification
+
+Before packaging or deploying ChronoSeal, verify that the release binary includes the expected platform hardening protections.
+
+### Security Inspection
+
+Inspect the release binary with `checksec`:
+
+```bash
+checksec file target/release/chronoseal
+```
+
+Expected protections:
+
+```text
+Full RELRO
+Stack Canary Found
+NX enabled
+PIE Enabled
+No RPATH
+No RUNPATH
+```
+
+These mitigations help reduce the impact of memory corruption vulnerabilities and runtime exploitation.
+
+### Stripped Production Binary
+
+To verify symbol reduction and release artifact quality:
+
+```bash
+strip target/release/chronoseal -o chronoseal.stripped
+
+nm -D chronoseal.stripped | wc -l
+```
+
+A stripped production binary should expose only a small dynamic symbol set.
+
+Check for remaining debug sections:
+
+```bash
+readelf -S chronoseal.stripped | grep debug
+```
+
+Production artifacts should not contain `.debug_*` sections.
+
+### Source Path Disclosure
+
+Rust release builds may embed local source paths from the build environment.
+
+To reduce path disclosure:
+
+```bash
+RUSTFLAGS="--remap-path-prefix=$HOME=~" \
+cargo build --release
+```
+
+or:
+
+```bash
+RUSTFLAGS="--remap-path-prefix=$(pwd)=." \
+cargo build --release
+```
+
+Recommended release profile:
+
+```toml
+[profile.release]
+lto = true
+codegen-units = 1
+panic = "abort"
+strip = "symbols"
+```
+
+### Runtime Verification
+
+Start the daemon locally:
+
+```bash
+./chronoseal run --bind 127.0.0.1:8080
+```
+
+Expected startup output:
+
+```text
+INFO chronoseal daemon started bind=127.0.0.1:8080
+```
+
+Verify core endpoints:
+
+```bash
+curl http://127.0.0.1:8080/health
+curl http://127.0.0.1:8080/stats
+curl http://127.0.0.1:8080/metrics
+```
+
+Successful responses confirm that:
+
+* configuration loading succeeded
+* storage initialization completed
+* HTTP listeners are active
+* observability endpoints are operational
+
+### PID File Permissions
+
+When running as an unprivileged user, writing directly to `/run` may fail:
+
+```text
+could not write PID file
+Permission denied
+```
+
+For local development:
+
+```bash
+chronoseal run --pid-file /tmp/chronoseal.pid
+```
+
+For production systemd deployments, prefer:
+
+```ini
+RuntimeDirectory=chronoseal
+```
+
+and:
+
+```text
+/run/chronoseal/chronoseal.pid
+```
+
+managed by systemd.
+
+### Additional Validation
+
+Inspect runtime dependencies:
+
+```bash
+ldd target/release/chronoseal
+```
+
+Verify ELF program headers:
+
+```bash
+readelf -l target/release/chronoseal
+```
+
+Look for:
+
+```text
+GNU_RELRO
+GNU_STACK
+```
+
+Confirm binary size:
+
+```bash
+ls -lh target/release/chronoseal
+```
+

-For Valkey:
+For Valkey / Redis:
+
+ChronoSeal expects a running Valkey or Redis instance when `db_type` is set to `valkey`.
+
+### 1. Installing Valkey or Redis
+To install Valkey (the recommended open-source option) or Redis on Linux:
+
+* **Valkey (Debian/Ubuntu)**:
+  ```bash
+  sudo apt-get install -y valkey-server
+  ```
+* **Redis (Debian/Ubuntu)**:
+  ```bash
+  sudo apt-get install -y redis-server
+  ```
+
+### 2. Local Setup and Startup
+By default, ChronoSeal searches for Valkey/Redis on `127.0.0.1:6666`. 
+
+You can start a local instance manually:
+```bash
+# Start Valkey on port 6666
+valkey-server --port 6666 --bind 127.0.0.1
+# Or start Redis on port 6666
+redis-server --port 6666 --bind 127.0.0.1
+```
+
+Or run it via Docker:
+```bash
+# Run Valkey container mapping host port 6666 to container port 6379
+docker run -d --name chronoseal-valkey -p 6666:6379 valkey/valkey:latest
+```
+
+### 3. Service Configuration
+Configure the environment variables to point ChronoSeal to your instance:
 
 ```bash
 export CHRONOSEAL_DB_TYPE=valkey
 export CHRONOSEAL_VALKEY_ADDR=127.0.0.1:6666
 ```
 
+#### Providing Credentials & SSL/TLS
+If your Valkey/Redis server requires authentication or secure TLS/SSL, include them directly in the `CHRONOSEAL_VALKEY_ADDR` connection URL:
+
+* **Password Only**:
+  ```bash
+  export CHRONOSEAL_VALKEY_ADDR=redis://:your_password@127.0.0.1:6666
+  ```
+* **Username & Password**:
+  ```bash
+  export CHRONOSEAL_VALKEY_ADDR=redis://your_username:your_password@127.0.0.1:6666
+  ```
+* **Secure Connection (SSL/TLS)**: Use the `rediss://` scheme prefix:
+  ```bash
+  export CHRONOSEAL_VALKEY_ADDR=rediss://your_username:your_password@secure-valkey-host.example.com:6379
+  ```
+
 If Valkey connection setup fails, the current implementation logs a warning and falls back to in-memory SQLite.

+## Runtime Footprint
+
+ChronoSeal is intentionally designed to maintain a small deployment footprint while providing browser attestation, cryptographic verification, session continuity, and WASM execution capabilities.
+
+Typical v1.0.2 release artifact sizes:
+
+| Component                                       | Approximate Size |
+| ----------------------------------------------- | ---------------: |
+| Native daemon (`chronoseal`)                    |         ~9.1 MiB |
+| Browser runtime (`chronoseal_wasm.wasm`)        |         ~728 KiB |
+| WASM static library (`libchronoseal_wasm.rlib`) |         ~188 KiB |
+
+Example:
+
+```text
+chronoseal
+9501232 bytes
+≈ 9.06 MiB
+
+chronoseal_wasm.wasm
+745569 bytes
+≈ 728 KiB
+```
+
+These compact artifact sizes help:
+
+* reduce deployment overhead
+* minimize container image growth
+* improve cold-start performance
+* reduce browser download size
+* simplify edge and self-hosted deployments
+
+ChronoSeal intentionally avoids heavyweight runtime dependencies and large browser frameworks, allowing the complete attestation stack to remain compact while preserving functionality.

+# ChronoSeal Operations Handbook (OPERATIONS)
+
+This guide describes how to deploy, monitor, scale, and maintain the ChronoSeal daemon (`chronoseald`) in production environments.
+
+---
+
+## 1. Systemd Deployment
+
+In single-host deployments, ChronoSeal runs as a systemd service. 
+
+Example systemd unit file (`/etc/systemd/system/chronoseal.service`):
+
+```ini
+[Unit]
+Description=ChronoSeal Attestation Daemon
+After=network.target
+
+[Service]
+Type=simple
+User=chronoseal
+Group=chronoseal
+WorkingDirectory=/var/lib/chronoseal
+ExecStart=/usr/local/bin/chronoseal run --config /etc/chronoseal.toml
+Restart=always
+RestartSec=5
+LimitNOFILE=65536
+
+# Hardening
+ProtectSystem=full
+ProtectHome=true
+NoNewPrivileges=true
+
+[Install]
+WantedBy=multi-user.target
+```
+
+Enable and start the service:
+```bash
+systemctl daemon-reload
+systemctl enable --now chronoseal
+```
+
+---
+
+## 2. Reverse Proxy & TLS Termination
+
+Do not expose the `chronoseald` HTTP interface directly to the public internet. Run it behind a reverse proxy (e.g. Nginx, HAProxy, Envoy) that enforces TLS termination and CORS limits.
+
+Example Nginx config (`/etc/nginx/sites-available/chronoseal.conf`):
+
+```nginx
+server {
+    listen 443 ssl http2;
+    server_name attestation.example.com;
+
+    ssl_certificate /etc/letsencrypt/live/example.com/fullchain.pem;
+    ssl_certificate_key /etc/letsencrypt/live/example.com/privkey.pem;
+    ssl_protocols TLSv1.2 TLSv1.3;
+    ssl_ciphers HIGH:!aNULL:!MD5;
+
+    location / {
+        proxy_pass http://127.0.0.1:8080;
+        proxy_set_header Host $host;
+        proxy_set_header X-Real-IP $remote_addr;
+        proxy_set_header X-Forwarded-For $proxy_add_x_forwarded_for;
+        proxy_set_header X-Forwarded-Proto $scheme;
+    }
+}
+```
+
+---
+
+## 3. Storage Backends & Scaling
+
+### A. SQLite (`sqlite-in-disk`)
+*   **Best For:** Single-node deployments.
+*   **Configuration:** Specify a writeable path in `db_path` and set `db_type = "sqlite-in-disk"`.
+*   **Operational Note:** Concurrency is limited by SQLite's single-writer database lock. Optimistic CAS reduces collisions, but high write volumes can cause queue congestion.
+
+### B. Valkey / Redis (`valkey`)
+*   **Best For:** Distributed or high-concurrency environments.
+*   **Configuration:** Set `db_type = "valkey"` and specify the node addresses via `CHRONOSEAL_VALKEY_ADDR`.
+*   **Horizontal Scaling:** Set up multiple `chronoseald` stateless daemon nodes. Direct all nodes to connect to the same shared Valkey cluster. This ensures session consistency across requests routed to different nodes.
+
+---
+
+## 4. Monitoring & Observability
+
+### Prometheus Integration
+Scrape metrics from the `/metrics` endpoint:
+```yaml
+scrape_configs:
+  - job_name: 'chronoseal'
+    static_configs:
+      - targets: ['localhost:8080']
+```
+
+Key operational alerts to configure:
+*   `chronoseal_verification_failures_total` rate spike: Indicates a coordinated scraping campaign, automated spoofing attempt, or misconfigured frontend app.
+*   `chronoseal_storage_latency_seconds` increase: Indicates storage backend bottleneck or lock congestion.

+
+## 2. Cryptographic Transition Mechanics
+
+### A. Handshake Phase (`/init`)
+The client registers a 32-byte Ed25519 verifying key represented as a hex string. 
+The server:
+1.  Generates a 32-byte session ID ($ID$) and a 16-byte initial salt ($S_0$).
+2.  Computes the initial hash chain head:
+    $$H_0 = \text{Blake3}(ID \parallel PK_{\text{client}} \parallel S_0)$$
+3.  Generates a random VM program of size $8..=16$ bytes.
+4.  Creates the initial mutation order program $M_1$.
+5.  Persists the session record in the database.
+
+---
+
+### B. Heartbeat progression (`/hb`)
+For each heartbeat step $n \ge 1$:
+The client submits:
+*   `prev_hash`: $H_{n-1}$ (hex encoded).
+*   `timestamp`: $T_n$ (milliseconds).
+*   `entropy_data`: Mouse movement arrays.
+*   `stack_state`: The VM final stack and instruction pointer `ip` after execution.
+*   `gene_commitment`: Hex-encoded commitment of the mutated gene state.
+*   `signature`: Ed25519 signature of the canonical alphabetical JSON payload.
+
+The server:
+1.  Loads the session record from storage, enforcing optimistic locking (CAS check) to confirm the database `last_hash` matches $H_{n-1}$.
+2.  Validates the Ed25519 signature against the canonical alphabetical serialization.
+3.  Re-executes the session's VM opcodes and asserts the client's `stack_state` matches the output.
+4.  Applies the mutation order $M_n$ to the stored gene state and calculates the expected commitment:
+    $$C_n = \text{Blake3}(\text{CandidateGene} \parallel ID \parallel n)$$
+    Asserts the client's `gene_commitment` matches.
+5.  Validates that $|T_{\text{server}} - T_n| \le \text{max\_drift}$.
+6.  Advances the hash chain:
+    $$H_n = \text{Blake3}(H_{n-1} \parallel T_n \parallel \text{Blake3}(E_n) \parallel \text{Blake3}(S_n) \parallel S_{n-1})$$
+7.  Rotates the salt to $S_n$ and issues the next mutation order $M_{n+1}$.
+
+---
+
+## 3. VM Instruction Specification
+
+The client VM executes instructions sequentially. The instruction set consists of:
+
+*   `0x00`: Pushes the next 4 bytes in the instruction stream onto the stack as a `u32` value (little-endian).
+*   `0x01`..=`0x07`: Binary operators. Requires at least 2 elements on the stack:
+    *   `0x01`: Wrapping Add (`a.wrapping_add(b)`)
+    *   `0x02`: Wrapping Sub (`a.wrapping_sub(b)`)
+    *   `0x03`: Wrapping Mul (`a.wrapping_mul(b)`)
+    *   `0x04`: XOR (`a ^ b`)
+    *   `0x05`: AND (`a & b`)
+    *   `0x06`: OR (`a | b`)
+    *   `0x07`: Rotate Left (`a.rotate_left(b % 32)`)
+*   `0x08`: Unary Bitwise Not (`!a`). Requires at least 1 element on the stack.
+*   `0x09`: Hash Stack. Hashes all stack elements using BLAKE3 and reduces it to a single `u32` value, clearing the stack and pushing the hash.
+*   *Any other opcode:* Terminates VM execution immediately.

+# ChronoSeal Protocol Stability Policy (PROTOCOL_STABILITY)
+
+This document defines the stable interfaces and boundaries of the ChronoSeal project to guide third-party integration development and future internal architectural evolutions.
+
+---
+
+## 1. Stable Public Contract
+
+The public surface of ChronoSeal is frozen at version 1.0 and consists of:
+
+1.  **Wire Protocol API:**
+    *   `POST /init`: Handshake schema (parameters, response fields).
+    *   `POST /hb`: Heartbeat schema (payload parameters, response fields).
+2.  **State Transition Semantics:**
+    *   The BLAKE3 hash chain progression rules.
+    *   The virtual machine opcodes and stack execution rules.
+    *   The Synthetic Gene Mutation logic and context-bound commitments.
+3.  **Daemon CLI & Config Schema:**
+    *   Commands (`run`, `status`, `health`, etc.).
+    *   TOML configuration keys.
+
+---
+
+## 2. Private Internal Boundaries
+
+All implementation details are subject to change without notice. Wrappers, clients, and applications must not depend on:
+
+*   **Internal Rust APIs:** ChronoSeal is a Unix daemon. It does not export a public Rust library SDK. Internal Rust modules (`server::storage`, `server::session`, etc.) are private.
+*   **Database Schema:** The SQLite table structure, indexes, or column names are private to the daemon.
+*   **Valkey Key Structures:** The layout of session keys, sorted set indexes, and pipelines are implementation details.
+
+---
+
+## 3. Protocol Evolution Policy
+
+*   **Minor Updates:** Can introduce new optional configuration fields or metrics.
+*   **Major Updates:** May change the VM instruction set or hash chain primitives, requiring new WASM builds.

+# ChronoSeal Security Assumptions & Guarantees
+
+This document details the trust boundary models, security assumptions, and non-goals of the ChronoSeal system.
+
+---
+
+## 1. Core Threat Philosophy
+
+ChronoSeal is a **cost-raising security layer**. It is designed to force automated scraping, botting, and replay tools to execute a fully compliant JavaScript/WASM execution runtime. It does not provide absolute hardware attestation or proof of human presence.
+
+---
+
+## 2. Non-Goals (What ChronoSeal is NOT)
+
+1.  **Proof of Humanity:** ChronoSeal does not check if the user is a human. A headless browser running with standard input event automation will pass verification if it runs the WASM runtime correctly.
+2.  **Anti-Debugging/Enclave Security:** ChronoSeal does not run inside a secure hardware enclave on the client. An attacker has complete control of the client wasm environment, memory, and key storage.
+3.  **Perfect Browser Verification:** ChronoSeal cannot guarantee the client is a real Chrome/Firefox browser. It guarantees that the client maintains the state chain and executes the math VM program.
+
+---
+
+## 3. Threat Matrix & Attacker Cost Model
+
+*   **Commodity HTTP Clients (Python `requests`, `curl`):** *Blocked.* Attackers cannot sign payloads, run the mathematical VM, or maintain the stateful BLAKE3 hash chain.
+*   **Headless Automation (Puppeteer, Playwright):** *Partially Contained.* The automation script must execute the full browser environment, load the WASM module, feed valid parameters, and generate realistic mouse movement coordinates. This imposes significantly higher CPU and resource overhead on the attacker.
+*   **Custom WASM Emulators:** *Raised Cost.* A determined reverse engineer can extract the WASM module and build a custom state runner in Node.js or Go. ChronoSeal counters this by using a stateful **Synthetic Gene Mutation Engine**, where the state vector mutations are governed dynamically by the server, requiring the emulator to replicate the entire mutation spec.
+
+---
+
+## 4. Key Invariants
+
+1.  **Chain Continuity:** A session state cannot bifurcate. Every heartbeat must advance the state head using the latest salt.
+2.  **VM Parity:** Stack state must exactly match the execution output of the server's issued opcode sequence.
+3.  **Dynamic Challenges:** Client gene updates must match the server-issued mutation program.
+
+
+## Additional Assumptions (v1.0.2)
+
+- Fingerprints are sanity signals, not identity proofs.
+- Rate limiting assumes client IP visibility.
+- Security headers reduce browser attack surface.

+# ChronoSeal Testing Strategy
+
+ChronoSeal maintains a security-focused test suite designed to validate cryptographic correctness, deterministic server ↔ WASM parity, replay resistance, mutation engine integrity, browser fingerprint validation, behavioral trust checks, storage reliability, and protocol hardening.
+
+As of **v1.0.2**, the project contains **100 passing tests** across the server, WASM, shared protocol, and property-testing suites.

+# Test Philosophy
+
+ChronoSeal prioritizes testing of security invariants rather than raw coverage percentages.
+
+Primary goals:
+
+* Verify deterministic server ↔ WASM behavior
+* Detect protocol divergence early
+* Prevent replay attacks
+* Validate mutation engine correctness
+* Detect malformed and adversarial input handling
+* Prevent VM and protocol panics
+* Maintain storage backend compatibility
+* Protect browser attestation continuity guarantees
+
+The project emphasizes negative-path testing and adversarial validation rather than only testing successful execution paths.

+```
+
+---
+
+## 10. Property-Based Testing
+
+ChronoSeal uses `proptest` to validate protocol invariants under arbitrary input.
+
+Property tests:
+
+```text
+test_vm_execute_never_panics
+test_gene_environment_roundtrip_never_panics
+```
+
+These tests continuously exercise malformed and randomized inputs to ensure graceful handling and panic resistance.
+
+---
+
+# Running the Test Suite
+
+Run all tests:
+
+```bash
+cargo test --workspace
+```
+
+Run server tests:
+
+```bash
+cargo test -p chronoseal-server
+```
+
+Run fingerprint tests only:
+
+```bash
+cargo test -p chronoseal-server fingerprint
+```
+
+Run WASM tests:
+
+```bash
+cargo test -p chronoseal-wasm
+```
+
+Run shared tests:
+
+```bash
+cargo test -p shared
+```
+
+Show output:
+
+```bash
+cargo test -- --nocapture
+```
+
+---
+
+# Critical Security Tests
+
+The following tests are considered release-blocking:
+
+```text
+test_replay_attack_is_rejected
+test_mutation_commitment_tamper_is_rejected
+test_handler_tampered_commitment_is_silent_failure
+test_deterministic_server_client_parity_across_many_heartbeats

+test_gene_environment_roundtrip_never_panics
+rejects_invalid_aspect_ratios
+rejects_invalid_device_pixel_ratios
+rejects_invalid_hardware_concurrency
+```
+
+These tests directly protect protocol integrity, replay resistance, mutation validation, deterministic execution, and fingerprint hardening.
+
+---
+
+# Conclusion
+
+ChronoSeal's testing strategy focuses on preserving deterministic behavior, protocol integrity, cryptographic correctness, browser ↔ server parity, and resistance to malformed or adversarial input.
+
+The current suite of **100 passing tests** provides comprehensive coverage across:
+
+* Configuration
+* Runtime initialization
+* Browser fingerprint validation
+* Session lifecycle management
+* Heartbeat verification
+* Mutation engine execution
+* VM safety
+* Behavioral validation
+* Storage backends

+## Attacker Classification Boundaries
+
+### Protected
+*   **Commodity Scrapers:** Simple HTTP clients (`curl`, Python `requests`, Go HTTP clients) that cannot execute JavaScript or WebAssembly.
+*   **Simple Replay Attackers:** Intercepted heartbeat payloads cannot be reused because of the strict hash-chain sequencing and salt rotation.
+*   **Signature Forgers:** Heartbeats without the session's private key will fail Ed25519 verification.
+
+### Partially Protected
+*   **Headless Automation (Puppeteer, Playwright):** Attackers must load the WASM runtime, execute the VM instructions, calculate gene mutations, and simulate realistic human mouse interactions. This significantly increases CPU and system memory overhead, reducing the scale of bot operations.
+*   **Stealth Automation Frameworks:** Advanced frameworks must maintain state sync across multiple heartbeat cycles, exposing them to timing detection.
+
+### Unprotected
+*   **WASM Key Extraction:** A reverse engineer with full browser process control can extract the private key from WASM memory.
+*   **Malware Operators:** Keyloggers, screen scrapers, or memory dumpers operating at the OS level are outside the application trust boundary.
+*   **MITM Interceptors (without TLS):** Plaintext traffic can be intercepted. (TLS termination is assumed).
+*   **Insiders / Storage Tampering:** Attackers with direct write access to the SQLite database or Valkey instance can forge or hijack active session states.

+# ChronoSeal Debugging & Failure Mode Guide (WHY_IT_FAILS)
+
+This document provides a technical diagnostic reference for developers, operators, and integration security teams. It explains why a client heartbeat or session initialization fails verification, and how to debug desynchronization issues.
+
+---
+
+## 1. Silent Rejections vs. HTTP Failures
+
+To deny attackers a feedback oracle, the ChronoSeal heartbeat endpoint (`POST /hb`) always returns HTTP status `200 OK` with `{"status": "ok"}` on semantic verification failures.
+
+*   **Successful Attestation:** The JSON response contains the rotated next state information: `next_salt`, `next_mutation_step`, and `next_mutation_order_b64`.
+*   **Silently Rejected Attestation:** The JSON response *omits* these three fields. The client is expected to roll back the state preview and retry.
+
+---
+
+## 2. Common Verification Failure Modes
+
+### A. Clock Drift (`TimestampDrift`)
+*   **Error Cause:** The client machine's local system time differs from the server's time by more than the configured `max_timestamp_drift_ms` (default 30 seconds).
+*   **Diagnostic Signal:** The `/hb` response omits next state parameters.
+*   **Remediation:** Synchronize both client and server clocks using NTP (Network Time Protocol). On the client, use NTP-synced system clocks or query server timestamp headers during initialization to compute a local clock offset.
+
+### B. Replay Attempts / Out-of-Sequence (`ChainBroken`)
+*   **Error Cause:** The request `prev_hash` does not match the server-stored `last_hash` for the session.
+*   **Root Causes:**
+    1.  The client replayed a previously captured heartbeat payload.
+    2.  The client lost the network response containing the rotated next state parameters and retried with stale state.
+    3.  A concurrent request succeeded first, updating the session's hash state.
+*   **Remediation:** If network issues cause packet loss, the client must discard the session and initiate a new `/init` handshake. Heartbeats cannot be replayed or resumed from a historical state.
+
+### C. Signature Failures (`Signature`)
+*   **Error Cause:** The Ed25519 signature over the canonical JSON payload is invalid.
+*   **Root Causes:**
+    1.  The client signed a payload that differed in ordering or format from the server's canonical serialization. (Ensure key sorting matches alphabetically: `entropyData`, `fingerprint`, `geneCommitment`, `mutationStep`, `prevHash`, `sessionId`, `stackState`, `timestamp`).
+    2.  Different platform engines formatted floats or large numbers differently.
+    3.  The public key registered during `/init` does not match the signing key.
+*   **Remediation:** Ensure both frontend and backend use strict canonical serializations (BTreeMap alphabetically sorted keys).
+
+### D. VM Stack State Mismatch (`VmStackMismatch`)
+*   **Error Cause:** The client's submitted `stack_state` (VM stack and instruction pointer `ip`) does not match the server-side re-execution of the session's random math program.
+*   **Root Causes:**
+    1.  An automated client bypassed the VM bytecode interpreter.
+    2.  The client VM interpreter diverged mathematically (e.g. word size wrapping or logical op mismatches).
+*   **Remediation:** Check the VM interpreter implementation parity between the client wasm and `shared::vm`.
+
+### E. Mutation Commitment Mismatch (`MutationCommitmentMismatch`)
+*   **Error Cause:** The client's computed `gene_commitment` does not match the server-applied gene mutation.
+*   **Root Causes:**
+    1.  The client used a different number of `mutation_rounds` than the server config.
+    2.  The mutation order execution logic diverged.
+*   **Remediation:** Verify that the client wasm correctly parsed `mutation_rounds` from `/init` and passed it to the generator.
+
+### F. Rate Limiting (`RateLimiter`)
+*   **Error Cause:** The client submitted more requests than allowed by the server's rate-limiting config (e.g., `rate_limit_count` per `rate_limit_window_secs`).
+*   **Diagnostic Signal:** The server returns `200 OK` with `{"status": "ok"}` but no next state data.
+*   **Remediation:** Reduce heartbeat frequency or adjust rate limit parameters in the daemon configuration.
+
+

+- Invalid device pixel ratio
+- Invalid hardware concurrency

+- Entropy event count exceeds 500

+# ChronoSeal Third-Party Wrapper & Integration Guide (WRAPPER_GUIDE)
+
+This document provides stable guidance for developers building third-party integration wrappers, clients, or SDKs around the `chronoseald` daemon.
+
+---
+
+## 1. Public Contract & Stability Guarantees
+
+As a protocol-first Unix daemon, `chronoseald` guarantees stability on the public network interface.
+
+### Guaranteed Stable
+*   **Endpoints:** `POST /init` and `POST /hb`.
+*   **JSON Fields:** The structure and naming of request and response keys.
+*   **VM Instruction Set:** The behavior and encoding of the 10 core VM opcodes (`0x00`..=`0x09`).
+*   **Signature Serialization:** Alphabetical key-sorting rules using `BTreeMap` serialization.
+*   **Hash Progression:** Blake3 chain folding rules.
+
+### Private (Unstable / Subject to Change)
+*   **Database Engines & Schemas:** SQLite table structure, Valkey key formatting, and indexes.
+*   **Daemon CLI Flags:** Internal metrics query formats.
+*   **Memory Structures:** Thread boundaries, session caches, and synchronization locks.
+
+---
+
+## 2. API Versioning & Deprecation Policy
+
+*   **Version Format:** API endpoints do not contain version prefixes (e.g., `/v1/hb`). Instead, protocol versioning is coupled to the daemon release version.
+*   **Breaking Protocol Changes:** Any change to the core hash function (Blake3) or the VM instruction set will trigger a major release (e.g., `v2.0.0`).
+*   **Deprecation Cycle:** Deprecated features will be supported for at least one minor release cycle, documented in `docs/PROTOCOL_STABILITY.md`.
+
+---
+
+## 3. Reference Implementation Steps for Wrappers
+
+To build a client-side wrapper or application adapter for `chronoseald`:
+
+1.  **Handshake:** Send `POST /init` with the hex-encoded Ed25519 public key. Save the returned `session_id`, `salt`, `opcodes_b64`, and `mutation_order_b64`.
+2.  **VM Execution:** Run the math VM program (decoded from `opcodes_b64`) using the client wasm runtime to get the target `stack_state`.
+3.  **Gene Mutation:** Decode `mutation_order_b64`, apply the mutation steps to the local gene buffer, and compute the new commitment hash.
+4.  **Signing:** Build the canonical alphabetical JSON message, sign it, and send `POST /hb`.
+5.  **Chain Advancement:** On success, extract `next_salt` and `next_mutation_order_b64` to prepare the next heartbeat request.

+          <h1>ChronoSeal Architecture</h1>
+          <p class="doc-subtitle">ChronoSeal is a Unix-native browser attestation daemon. It validates session continuity by combining cryptographic signatures, hash-chain progression, deterministic VM execution, and a shared Synthetic Gene Mutation Engine.</p>
+          
+          <hr>
+
+          <h2>System Diagram</h2>
+          <p>The following diagram shows the relationship between browser clients, the daemon process, and the shared protocol library:</p>
+          
+          <!-- Inline Architecture Diagram Container -->
+          <div id="diagram-architecture" class="arch-diagram" style="margin-top:24px"></div>
+
+          <h2>Workspace Components</h2>
+          <p>The codebase is structured as a Rust workspace containing three runtime crates and static frontend assets:</p>
+          
+          <h3>1. <code>shared/</code> Crate</h3>
+          <p>The <strong>determinism boundary</strong> of ChronoSeal. Any execution logic that must agree precisely between the browser WASM runtime and server verification belongs here. Its responsibilities include:</p>
+          <ul>
+            <li>Wire protocol struct formats for request and response models.</li>
+            <li>Blake3 hash-chain progression functions.</li>
+            <li>Synthetic gene model definitions and commitments.</li>
+            <li>Mutation program bytecode generator, interpreter, and execution tracer.</li>
+          </ul>
+
+          <h3>2. <code>server/</code> Crate</h3>
+          <p>Compiles into the <code>chronoseal</code> daemon binary. It manages the server runtime, HTTP API routes, database backends, and verification logic. Key responsibilities:</p>
+          <ul>
+            <li>CLI command parsing and flag defaults.</li>
+            <li>Axum-based web router and health endpoints.</li>
+            <li>Verification pipeline (signature verification, timestamp drift checks, rate limit validations).</li>
+            <li>Pluggable storage adapters (SQLite memory/disk, Valkey).</li>
+            <li>Background cleanup loop for session purges.</li>
+          </ul>
+
+          <h3>3. <code>wasm/</code> Crate</h3>
+          <p>Compiles into the browser WebAssembly package (using <code>wasm-pack</code>) used by the frontend. Its key functions include:</p>
+          <ul>
+            <li>Secure client-side Ed25519 keypair generation and verification.</li>
+            <li>Message signing for canonical heartbeat payloads.</li>
+            <li>Client-side VM program execution and stack history logging.</li>
+            <li>Previewing, committing, and discarding synthetic gene mutations.</li>
+          </ul>
+
+          <h3>4. <code>frontend/</code> Directory</h3>
+          <p>Contains static JavaScript (<code>heartbeat.js</code>, <code>app.js</code>) and assets served to browsers to orchestrate background attestation calls without blocking UI rendering.</p>
+
+          <h2>Session State Model</h2>
+          <p>The daemon stores a single <code>SessionRecord</code> in the active database per session, structured as follows:</p>
+          <table>
+            <thead>
+              <tr>
+                <th>Field</th>
+                <th>Core Description</th>
+              </tr>
+            </thead>
+            <tbody>
+              <tr>
+                <td><code>session_id</code></td>
+                <td>Random 32-byte session lookup key.</td>
+              </tr>
+              <tr>
+                <td><code>public_key</code></td>
+                <td>Registered Ed25519 public key. Used to verify all heartbeats.</td>
+              </tr>
+              <tr>
+                <td><code>salt</code></td>
+                <td>Current server salt required to verify the next heartbeat.</td>
+              </tr>
+              <tr>
+                <td><code>last_hash</code></td>
+                <td>Current accepted Blake3 hash head. Prevents out-of-order repeats.</td>
+              </tr>
+              <tr>
+                <td><code>gene</code></td>
+                <td>Committed synthetic gene byte buffer.</td>
+              </tr>
+              <tr>
+                <td><code>pending_mutation</code></td>
+                <td>The mutation program compiled by the server for the next heartbeat step.</td>
+              </tr>

+                <td>Mismatches between this and request steps cause silent rejection.</td>
+              </tr>
+            </tbody>
+          </table>
+
+          <div class="doc-alert doc-alert--warn">
+            <div class="doc-alert-icon">⚠️</div>
+            <div class="doc-alert-body">
+              <strong>State Invariant:</strong> The server-side session state advances ONLY after a heartbeat passes all pipeline validations. Failed heartbeats never alter the stored salt, hash, or gene parameters, preventing desynchronization exploits.

+          </div>
+
+          <h2>Verification Pipeline</h2>
+          <p>Heartbeat verification follows a strict chronological order. If any check fails, execution immediately halts, returning the silent rejection response. The pipeline is:</p>
+          <ol>
+            <li>Load the session record using the submitted <code>session_id</code>.</li>
+            <li>Assert that the session exists and has not expired (<code>now &lt; expires_at</code>).</li>
+            <li>Verify the Ed25519 signature against the reconstructed canonical JSON payload.</li>
+            <li>Assert the request's <code>prev_hash</code> matches the server-stored <code>last_hash</code>.</li>
+            <li>Compare request step with <code>pending_mutation_step</code>.</li>
+            <li>Apply the stored <code>pending_mutation</code> to a cloned gene buffer.</li>
+            <li>Assert the computed gene commitment matches the request's <code>gene_commitment</code>.</li>
+            <li>Assert that the timestamp drift matches liveness bounds (within 30 seconds).</li>
+            <li>Assert that mouse activity entropy is present and speed falls within thresholds.</li>
+            <li>Assert screen aspect ratio, device pixel ratio, and concurrency parameters match bounds.</li>
+            <li>Advance the session's hash head, rotate the salt, compile the next mutation program, and persist.</li>
+          </ol>

+          <h2>Detailed Analysis</h2>
+          
+          <h3>1. ChronoSeal (v1.0.2)</h3>
+          <p><strong>Strengths:</strong></p>
+          <ul>
+            <li>Strongest cryptographic foundation (Ed25519 signatures + Blake3 hash chain + Synthetic Gene Mutation Engine).</li>
+            <li>Fully deterministic server ↔ WASM execution agreement.</li>
+            <li>Completely invisible to users with silent rejection mechanics.</li>
+            <li>Excellent privacy posture — no third-party tracking, profiling, or persistent databases.</li>
+            <li>Tunable mutation complexity parameters (<code>gene_size</code> and <code>mutation_rounds</code>).</li>
+            <li>100% control, auditability, and local operations.</li>
+          </ul>
+          <p><strong>Weaknesses:</strong></p>
+          <ul>
+            <li>Requires self-hosting, configuration management, and server capacity.</li>
+            <li>No global threat intelligence network or shared IP reputation lists.</li>
+          </ul>
+
+          <h3>2. Cloudflare Bot Management</h3>
+          <p><strong>Strengths:</strong></p>
+          <ul>
+            <li>Extremely easy to deploy for domains already routed through Cloudflare.</li>
+            <li>Excellent scale and global threat reputation database.</li>
+          </ul>
+          <p><strong>Weaknesses vs ChronoSeal:</strong></p>
+          <ul>
+            <li>Relies heavily on browser fingerprint heuristics and invasive JS challenges.</li>
+            <li>Sends visitor metadata to Cloudflare (privacy impact).</li>
+            <li>Vendor lock-in and zero visibility into decision algorithms.</li>
+          </ul>
+
+          <h3>3. Enterprise Solutions (Akamai, HUMAN, DataDome, Kasada)</h3>
+          <p><strong>Strengths:</strong></p>
+          <ul>
+            <li>Sophisticated machine learning modeling of biometrics and timing.</li>
+            <li>Professional support, operational SLAs, and security response teams.</li>
+          </ul>
+          <p><strong>Weaknesses vs ChronoSeal:</strong></p>
+          <ul>
+            <li>Extremely expensive enterprise licensing models.</li>
+            <li>Black-box systems with limited logging and transparency.</li>
+            <li>Heavy user data collection, causing privacy and compliance overhead.</li>
+          </ul>
+
+          <h3>4. reCAPTCHA v3</h3>
+          <p><strong>Strengths:</strong></p>
+          <ul>
+            <li>Free tier with wide community adoption.</li>
+            <li>Quick to integrate in basic web forms.</li>
+          </ul>
+          <p><strong>Weaknesses vs ChronoSeal:</strong></p>
+          <ul>
+            <li>Heavy Google user tracking cookies and profiling.</li>
+            <li>Fails to block modern, stateful automated browsers and headless runs.</li>
+            <li>High rate of bypasses by standard captcha-solving farms.</li>
+          </ul>
+
+          <h2>When to Choose ChronoSeal</h2>
+          <p>Choose <strong>ChronoSeal</strong> if you want:</p>
+          <ul>
+            <li>Maximum visitor privacy.</li>
+            <li>Strong, deterministic cryptographic guarantees.</li>
+            <li>Complete control over your server infrastructure and logs.</li>
+            <li>Configurable and tunable verification strength.</li>
+            <li>Zero dependency on third-party SaaS vendors.</li>
+          </ul>
+
+          <h2>Technical Differentiation</h2>
+          <p>ChronoSeal's primary advantage is the <strong>Synthetic Gene Mutation Engine</strong>. Instead of just checking static fingerprint values or browser headers, the server issues dynamic mutation programs that both the server and client WASM execute in sync. This establishes a second stateful channel that is extremely difficult for automation clients to spoof at scale without implementing the complete state model.</p>

+
+          <h2>Native Service Installation</h2>
+          <p>The easiest way to deploy ChronoSeal on Linux is using our installer script. This creates a dedicated system user, configures directory paths, copies assets, and sets up systemd sandboxing:</p>
+          <div class="code-block">
+            <div class="code-header">
+              <span class="code-lang">Shell</span>

+            <pre><code>sudo systemctl status chronoseal
+chronoseal health
+sudo journalctl -u chronoseal -f</code></pre>
+          </div>
+
+          <h2>Configuration Precedence</h2>
+          <p>ChronoSeal resolves configuration variables in this order:
+            <code>CLI parameters</code> &gt; <code>CHRONOSEAL_* Environment Variables</code> &gt; <code>TOML file</code> &gt; <code>Defaults</code>.
+          </p>
+          <p>The TOML configuration is searched at:
+            <code>$CHRONOSEAL_CONFIG</code>, <code>/etc/chronoseal/config.toml</code>, <code>~/.config/chronoseal/config.toml</code>.
+          </p>
+
+          <h3>Common Environment overrides</h3>
+          <ul>
+            <li><code>CHRONOSEAL_BIND</code>: Binding address (e.g. <code>127.0.0.1:3000</code>).</li>
+            <li><code>CHRONOSEAL_DB_TYPE</code>: <code>sqlite-in-memory</code>, <code>sqlite-in-disk</code>, or <code>valkey</code>.</li>
+            <li><code>CHRONOSEAL_VALKEY_ADDR</code>: Address of Valkey server (defaults to <code>127.0.0.1:6666</code>).</li>
+            <li><code>CHRONOSEAL_FRONTEND_DIR</code>: Directory containing frontend static assets.</li>
+          </ul>
+
+          <h2>Reverse Proxy Configuration (Nginx)</h2>
+          <p>Ensure ChronoSeal runs behind TLS in production. Secure proxy traffic to the local daemon port:</p>
+          <div class="code-block">
+            <div class="code-header">
+              <span class="code-lang">Nginx</span>

+    proxy_set_header   X-Forwarded-Proto $scheme;
+}</code></pre>
+          </div>
+
+          <h2>Docker Compose Deployment</h2>
+          <p>Build and run the container service (configured for non-root execution by default):</p>
+          <div class="code-block">
+            <div class="code-header">
+              <span class="code-lang">Shell</span>

+docker compose up -d --build</code></pre>
+          </div>
+
+          <h2>Production Checklist</h2>
+          <ul>
+            <li>Ensure WASM modules in <code>frontend/pkg</code> are rebuilt with the <code>--release</code> flag.</li>
+            <li>Serve all ChronoSeal endpoints exclusively over HTTPS.</li>
+            <li>Restict server bind address to localhost (<code>127.0.0.1</code>) behind a reverse proxy.</li>
+            <li>Run the daemon service under a dedicated unprivileged user account.</li>
+            <li>Disable debug logging (avoid <code>CHRONOSEAL_LOG=debug</code>) in production to protect credentials.</li>
+            <li>Configure Valkey or persistent SQLite for production session storage.</li>
+          </ul>
