Includes an opt-in testnet round-trip test (keyless build -> decode -> policy
-> sign, never submits), excluded from CI because it needs a funded wallet.
Run against the real funded testnet wallet: pass 3, fail 0, nothing submitted.
Verified every README claim against the code as implemented, not just the
brief text, and corrected several:
- VECTOR_SIGNER_AUDIT_LOG_PATH's default resolves against the package's own
install location (repo root), not the process's cwd as originally stated --
and that default filename is not yet covered by .gitignore.
- An audit-log write failure blocks ALL signing, not just accounting:
audit.append() throws by design and vector_signer_sign withholds an
already-produced signature rather than release one with no durable record.
- Documented the #private-field defense against accidental key leakage via
JSON.stringify/console.log, and the read-only/sign tool split that keeps
the signing key out of scope for get_address/decode/get_spend_limits.
- Documented that pairing this signer with the CURRENT hosted builder does
not yet remove the custody exposure it's designed to fix: no builder tool
is keyless yet, and there is no submit_transaction tool to hand a produced
signature to. That's the next stage of the migration, not shipped here.
Env-var cross-check (brief's Step 6, both directions) passes clean.
