Key rotation uses version-indexed derivation paths: each key version maps
to a distinct SLIP-0010 path (m/74'/2'/0'/{version-2}'). v2 is at index 0
(PATHS::ENCRYPTION), v3 at index 1, etc.
Mechanism:
- encryption_path_for_version(version) constructs the path
- decrypt derives the key at the version-indicated path (not always
PATHS::ENCRYPTION)
- rotate(blob, to_version) decrypts with old key, re-encrypts with new
- No new mnemonic needed — same seed, different path
- Partial rotation is safe — old keys remain derivable
- The vault does not self-rotate; the assembly layer iterates blobs
Source drift flagged:
- decrypt currently ignores key_version for path selection (always uses
PATHS::ENCRYPTION) — must use version-indexed paths
- rotate method does not exist in source — must be added
- CURRENT_KEY_VERSION must bump from 1 to 2 (per ADR-020, reinforced here)
OQ-22 resolved. Only OQ-21 (remote vault admin, deferred) remains.
