From 1b5431e2c122ee70bf67b5fd99d4289214b134ea Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Imran Siddique Date: Tue, 8 Sep 2026 21:51:12 -0700 Subject: [PATCH] docs: link an operator guide for running a witness The card offered a mirroring guide and nothing for the other half of its own heading. Action State has published an operator guide for running a witness: endpoints and schema, deploy, backup and restore with a cryptographic restore check, key rotation, offline receipt verification without contacting the witness, and registering one checkpoint with more than one witness. It marks hardware key custody, continuity checking and refusing the write on equivocation as planned rather than shipped. Read before linking: it describes running a witness under your own domain and your own key, with their code as optional tooling rather than a dependency, which is the only version worth linking from a page that says single-operator dependency is a weakness.

Run a mirror or a witness

Single-operator dependency is a weakness we name rather than hide. Independent mirrors and independent witnesses can reduce it when observers retain and compare evidence. Neither is a blanket guarantee against split views.
