IV. Infrastructure
4.1 Encrypted DAG Execution Logs and Immutable Audit Trails
4.1.1 Logging Scope and Corridor Coverage (a) All material events within the lifecycle of every policy clause — including scenario ideation, initial drafting, simulation executions, fallback chain activations, corridor council deliberations, DAO quorum ballots, breach incident certifications, ethics escalation notices, and redline override operations — must be systematically recorded within a corridor-grade encrypted Directed Acyclic Graph (DAG) log that is recognized as legally binding across all Nexus Treaty corridors. (b) This obligation applies universally to all designated Policy Fellows, NE module custodians, DAO Quorum governance agents, Cluster Editors, corridor council technical administrators, and any authorized third-party host institutions operating under the Nexus Commons sovereign governance architecture. (c) No clause contributor, Quorum subcommittee, or corridor council may exercise discretionary exemption to circumvent or suspend the logging mandate, regardless of corridor treaty exceptions or regional privacy exceptions. Any attempt to redact, modify, or omit log entries for events deemed material to corridor scenario integrity is strictly prohibited. (i) Failure to maintain full log coverage and integrity constitutes a direct violation of the Immutable Mission Lock (cross-referenced in §1.1.2) and will automatically compel immediate NSF quarantine, AAP fallback DAG orchestration, GRIX risk index escalation, and UNCITRAL Model Law arbitration fallback if corridor-specific tribunal redress proves infeasible. (ii) This clause guarantees that logging fidelity is treated as a corridor sovereign asset, enforceable under Nexus Commons Data Treaty compliance regimes and cross-border data resilience safeguards.
4.1.2 Blockchain Encryption and RDF-Secure Hashing (a) All log packet chains must be encrypted using cryptographic standards that meet or surpass ISO/IEC 19790, ISO/IEC 27001, and NIST FIPS 140-3, ensuring full corridor sovereignty and treaty-grade compliance with Nexus Treaty Stack cyber governance benchmarks. (b) Every individual log entry shall be hash-linked to a certified RDF metadata triple containing, at minimum, the unique scenario UUID, validated Clause Passport identifier, active simulation DAG chain reference, and corridor jurisdiction code under which the scenario is operational. (c) DOI issuance for each distinct log batch and archival version is compulsory to preserve sovereign admissibility across corridor council proceedings, NSF Clause Tribunal certifications, GRF Ethics Council reviews, and fallback international arbitration under UNCITRAL Model Law provisions. (i) If a hash link anomaly, breakage, or signature tampering is detected by NE modules, the system must instantaneously deploy an immutable quarantine snapshot, generate a forensic chain-of-custody record, and trigger an EWS broadcast alert to corridor observatories, DAO Quorum stewards, and impacted scenario contributors. (ii) Blockchain chaining must remain resilient to quantum threat models and must be periodically upgraded per Nexus Labs cryptographic audit standards.
4.1.3 NE Module Signature Enforcement (a) All logging records shall be cryptographically co-signed by each relevant NE module involved in the scenario’s operational workflow, ensuring non-repudiation and corridor-grade verifiability. (b) NXSCore is obligated to sign off on all compute attestations, verifying that simulation data processed aligns with the approved scenario template and clause constraints. (c) NXSQue must append orchestration signatures for every DAG node trigger, fallback chain status update, and conditional pathway activation. (d) GRIX must co-sign any modifications to corridor risk indices, governance exposure profiles, and treaty breach notifications generated during scenario evolution. (e) DSS must sign off on governance milestones, Quorum decision points, ballot closures, and multi-signature quorum override authorizations. (i) Absence of required NE module co-signatures renders the log entry legally null, triggers immediate AAP rollback lockdown, invokes sandbox quarantine for the affected scenario, and mandates automatic NSF Clause Tribunal breach registration with public corridor registry notification. (ii) Repeated signature tampering or pattern of missing attestations may be escalated to GRF Ethics Council as a sovereign-grade governance breach.
4.1.4 RDF Anchoring and DOI Treaty Lineage (a) Every log archive must embed an RDF metadata anchor that provides an immutable treaty lineage map, detailing the scenario UUID, NE module chain-of-custody, DAO Quorum path history, corridor jurisdiction tag, SPDX license block, and version control inheritance for cross-treaty reproducibility. (b) DOI minting must comply with Nexus Registry guidelines and Zenodo integration rules to ensure that logs are discoverable, forkable, and legally admissible for citation in corridor civil law contexts, national regulatory reviews, or international arbitration proceedings. (c) The RDF+DOI combination must persist even if raw log payloads are redacted for privacy or corridor security reasons; metadata lineage must remain intact for sovereign discovery and compliance verification. (i) RDF anchors must be versioned incrementally whenever amendments, corrections, or tribunal-ordered redactions occur, guaranteeing full forensic reproducibility and mission lock protection under the Nexus Treaty Equivalence Clause.
4.1.5 DSS Archival Redundancy and Neutral Node Safeguards (a) All logs must be redundantly stored in a minimum of three physically and jurisdictionally diverse DSS nodes to ensure data resilience against corridor geopolitical instability, cross-border conflict, or catastrophic systems failure. (b) One archival node must operate under the direct legal authority of the corridor council within the corridor’s sovereign jurisdiction; at least two must reside in geographically neutral, treaty-compliant data sanctuaries recognized under the Nexus Commons Data Treaty. (c) NE Labs observability routines shall orchestrate scheduled checksum integrity tests to confirm that redundant copies remain byte-for-byte identical and hash-consistent with original entries. (i) Any detected data corruption, node compromise, or regional disaster must trigger automatic replication to new neutral sites within twenty-four (24) hours, with replication event notarization recorded in the Nexus Passport Registry and visible on corridor observatory dashboards. (ii) DSS node stewards are personally accountable for breach of redundancy guarantees and may be summoned to NSF Clause Tribunal hearings in case of intentional negligence.
4.1.6 Corridor Council Audit and Verification Mandate (a) Each corridor council is legally obligated to conduct rolling quarterly audits covering a random sample of log entries, verifying NE module signature chains, RDF anchor fidelity, DOI lineage consistency, and cross-checking for unauthorized edits or omissions. (b) Anomalies must be reported in writing to the NSF within five corridor business days. Failure to resolve within statutory timeframes shall auto-trigger fallback DAG quarantine and GRIX breach risk elevation. (c) Councils possess binding statutory powers to direct DSS administrators to restore corrupted logs, re-index RDF metadata, and reissue DOI certificates if discrepancies are detected. (i) All audit outcomes, restoration actions, and council directives must be logged for GRF Ethics Council review and made available to DAO Quorum oversight panels. (ii) Persistent noncompliance or audit failures by a corridor council authorize GRA Quorum to invoke direct governance override and apply corridor-level sanctions under Nexus Treaty Stack provisions.
4.1.7 Tribunal Audit Readiness and UNCITRAL Compliance (a) Logs must be maintained in a court-ready, notarized format compliant with corridor civil procedure rules and the UNCITRAL Model Law on Electronic Commerce evidentiary standards. (b) Policy Fellows, NE Labs custodians, corridor council compliance officers, and DAO Quorum governance clusters must maintain instant operational readiness to produce complete, untampered logs in response to any subpoena, tribunal request, or corridor council emergency inquiry. (c) Log chains must bear verified NE module signatures, valid RDF anchors, and DOI registry certificates to meet corridor evidentiary admissibility thresholds. (i) Failure to produce logs on demand or deliberate tampering shall be classified as a Tier One Immutable Mission Lock violation, activating fallback insurance guarantees, NSF breach sanctions, and GRF sovereign tribunal oversight.
4.1.8 Public Transparency and Open Access Snapshots (a) All logs not containing classified fallback scenario algorithms, sensitive corridor security triggers, or confidential negotiation positions must be published for public corridor oversight. (b) Acceptable channels include corridor council dashboards, Nexus Commons RDF query explorers, and Zenodo-hosted public scenario forks linked to DOI indices. (c) Where corridor-specific data privacy regulations require partial redaction, the RDF metadata structure and DOI trail must remain legally intact to permit council subpoena or tribunal review. (i) Unauthorized concealment, deletion, or forging of logs shall activate GRIX ethics flags, broadcast EWS redline alerts corridor-wide, and trigger automatic escalation to the GRF Ethics Council for punitive adjudication.
4.1.9 Breach Logging, EWS Redline Alerts, and Sandbox Isolation (a) Any detected log chain anomaly, corridor treaty breach, or security escalation must immediately generate an immutable breach log entry, signed by all implicated NE modules and tagged with the precise scenario UUID and corridor jurisdiction code. (b) An EWS redline alert must be broadcast in real time to all scenario authors, corridor council clusters, DAO Quorum stewards, and Cluster Editors. (c) Affected scenario forks shall enter forced sandbox quarantine, and the relevant fallback DAG shall activate automatically until GRA Quorum and NSF Clause Tribunal confirm resolution. (i) Failure to broadcast breaches within corridor statutory windows constitutes a severe governance infraction, escalating GRIX risk indices and invoking sovereign insurance fallback under Nexus Commons.
4.1.10 Sunset Clause and Sovereign Retention Period (a) All log chains and associated RDF/DOI metadata must be retained for a statutory minimum of ten (10) corridor fiscal years after the final sunset, retirement, or revocation of a scenario clause. (b) Even after the raw payload is securely purged post-retention, RDF anchors and DOI indices shall persist indefinitely in the Nexus Registry and Zenodo to maintain sovereign treaty traceability and compliance auditing capabilities. (c) Secure erasure of raw logs prior to the mandated retention period requires explicit corridor council quorum approval, NSF countersignature, and demonstration of treaty compliance to GRF Tribunal panels. (i) Any unauthorized early destruction or compromise of sovereign log chains shall trigger mission lock breach classification, corridor insurance activation, and remedial treaty fallback arbitration.
4.2 Corridor Scenario Playback, Replay Engine, and Risk Dashboards
4.2.1 Replay Scope and Corridor Playback Mandate (a) Every scenario, simulation, fallback chain, and quorum-governed clause fork must be replayable on demand through a corridor-certified playback engine approved by NE Labs and NSF.
