Widens the sender-auditor sponge from two lanes to three and adds an auditor-side escrow of the delegation viewing key. Lane 2 carries the new spendable blinding on the checkpoint operations (W_a5, T_a9, S_a6) and dvk_i on spender transfers (O_a9); S14 escrows dvk_i to the owner's auditor at set_spender under a new domain tag. The auditor can now recover the full Pedersen opening of C_spend and C_a rather than the value alone.

WalkthroughConfidential token circuits now derive three sender-auditor sponge outputs. They escrow spendable blindings and, for delegated operations, delegation viewing keys. Payloads, proofs, events, tests, documentation, baselines, and verification keys reflect the added fields. ChangesAuditor escrow expansion
Estimated code review effort: 4 (Complex) | ~45 minutes Merge Risk: 🟡 Moderate · up to The PR adds auditor-visible opening data and changes payload, public-input, and event contracts, but current specifications and SDK guidance still describe the old two-lane behavior and make conflicting claims about which openings are recoverable. This could lead downstream clients or auditors to derive incorrect data, so the documentation contract should be corrected or explicitly accepted before merge. Sequence Diagram(s)sequenceDiagram

In `@packages/tokens/src/confidential/CLAUDE.md`:
- Around line 62-68: The confidential documentation duplicates protocol
semantics that should be cited instead. In
packages/tokens/src/confidential/CLAUDE.md lines 62-68, replace the domain-tag
and lane-assignment tables with citations to DESIGN_cont.md §13 and DESIGN.md
§2.5; in packages/tokens/src/confidential/circuits/CLAUDE.md lines 39-41,
replace the copied sponge construction and lane rules with a citation to
DESIGN.md §2.5. No other protocol details require changes.
In `@packages/tokens/src/confidential/docs/DESIGN_cont.md`:
- Line 18: The sender-auditor channel must be documented consistently as
three-lane: in DESIGN_cont.md at lines 29, 37, and 94, add sender lane 2 and use
SpongeSqueeze_3 wherever it is read; in SDK.md at lines 464-473, update the
auditor-client procedure to derive sender lane 2 while preserving the recipient
channel’s two-lane behavior.
In `@packages/tokens/src/confidential/docs/DESIGN.md`:
- Around line 146-154: Move the newly added mathematical equations and
constraint rows in §2.5 and §§7.5–7.8 from DESIGN.md into DESIGN_cont.md,
following the placement guidance in CLAUDE.md. Replace the removed material in
DESIGN.md with concise citations pointing to the corresponding DESIGN_cont.md
sections, preserving the existing section structure and references.
- Line 293: Update the viewing-key description’s contract-binding parenthetical
to include V2 alongside R2, W2, T2, and S2, matching the V2 definition in
RevokeSpender.
In `@packages/tokens/src/confidential/docs/OVERVIEW.md`:
- Around line 94-95: Update the visibility table associated with the withdrawal
flow to include the post-withdrawal blinding factor available to the sender
auditor and the sender-side blinding exposed through transfer checkpoints, or
explicitly label the table as non-exhaustive. Keep the existing post-withdrawal
balance entry and align the table with the auditor contract described in the
Wallet and Contract summary.
In `@packages/tokens/src/confidential/docs/SELECTIVE_DISCLOSURE.md`:
- Line 100: Qualify the auditor trust-scope statement around “full Pedersen
openings” to limit C_spend openings to event-scoped checkpoints, consistent with
the post-merge limitation; alternatively document the mechanism that provides
post-merge blinding. Update the D-auditor disclosure wording so it does not
imply auditors can open every post-merge C_spend.

…hout DESIGN_cont §8.1/§8.2/§8.4/§8.5 still read the sender channel two-wide and still claimed no auditor can open C_spend; SDK §11 and OVERVIEW's visibility table omitted lane 2 entirely. Scope the spend-side opening to the checkpoint events that escrow it, restore V2 in the vk contract-binding lists, and move the lane-2 semantics out of DESIGN §2.5 into §8.1.

Widens the sender-auditor Poseidon2 sponge from two lanes to three, and adds an auditor-side escrow of the delegation viewing key.
sponge_squeeze_3incircuits/lib/src/lib.nrdvk_ion spender transfers (O_a9)dvk_ito the owner's auditor atset_spender, under new domain tag 17 (ESCROWED_DELEGATION_VIEWING_KEY_AUDITOR)Net effect: the auditor can now recover the full Pedersen opening of
C_spendandC_a, not just the value.Why it's safe to widen
sponge_squeeze_3(d, s, σ)[0..2] == sponge_squeeze_2(d, s, σ)by construction — the absorb fits one rate-3 block, so both read the same permutation. No existing mask value changes, and the widening costs no extra constraints. Pinned bysponge_squeeze_3_agrees_with_squeeze_2_on_shared_lanes.S14 uses a separate tag from
ESCROWED_DELEGATION_VIEWING_KEY(10) even though reuse would be secure: sharing it would drop one leg of DESIGN §5.3's "why reusingr_eis safe" argument.Review notes
Read
sponge_squeeze_3once, then check four near-identical applications. Constraint counts move as expected:Payloads gain
r_tilde_aud_s(withdraw/transfer/set_spender) anddvk_cipher_aud(set_spender/spender_transfer); PI order and event shapes follow. Four VKs regenerate.This is a wire-format change — payload structs, public-input order, and event fields all change for four operations.
