Owner decisions 2026-10-14:
- worm_audit_settings: one audited, editable row (changeset worm-audit:10,
seeded insert-only) holding audit retention years, export lock mode
(GOVERNANCE default, COMPLIANCE), export retention days (30), checkpoint
cadence, chain interval, settle horizon, late-detail lookback and the
export/verify schedules; edits are FIELD-audited and therefore chained;
schedules apply after restart, the rest on the next run (30 s cache);
- exporter and verifier honour the recorded lock mode and retain-until;
the home shows the mode and warns while GOVERNANCE is in use or the
export retention is shorter than audit retention;
- README: Settings and Switching sealed exports to COMPLIANCE; DESIGN
addendum; screenshots of the home and the Settings record.
