Establishes the tasks/architecture/ blocker-task half of the Safe Exit protocol. Each deferred OQ now has an external-trigger tracker task representing its unblocking condition, and the OQ's Blocked on field names the tracker task ID — closing the gap where the deferral field existed but the task-graph half was unenforced. Changes: - Add 6 external-trigger tracker tasks for the deferred OQs (OQ-09, 10, 32, 41, 44, 46) under tasks/architecture/, tagged [external-trigger, deferred-oq] - Add structured Blocked on field to OQ-09 and OQ-10 (previously used legacy 'deferred' status with the reason in the Resolution prose); index now surfaces all 6 deferred OQs with concrete conditions, no placeholders - Document the architecture-task level mapping (level: implementation for ADRs/specs, decomposition for spec-to-ADR breakdown, planning for backlog seeding, research/review direct fits) and the deferred-OQ blocker-task pattern in docs/sdd_process.md - Mark architecture/safe-exit-blocker-task-mechanism and architecture/oq-09-10-blocking-conditions completed (implemented by this pass) - Fix 4 pre-existing ADR-050 implementation tasks: status: done → completed (taskgraph enum is 'completed', not 'done') — taskgraph validate now passes for all 100 tasks
Alknet
Status: Pre-alpha — This project is undergoing a major architectural pivot to an ALPN-as-service model. The previous implementation has been archived and a greenfield rebuild is in progress.
A self-hostable networking toolkit built on QUIC+TLS with ALPN-based protocol dispatch. Each protocol handler (SSH, SFTP, Git, HTTP, DNS, messaging, call protocol) registers an ALPN string on a shared endpoint. The ALPN negotiation during the TLS/QUIC handshake routes connections to the correct handler before any application bytes are read.
Core Insight
A service IS an ALPN. One endpoint, one port, many protocols — dispatched by the TLS handshake, not by application-level peeking or separate listeners.
