What Is NOT Yet Covered (Future Work)What Is NOT Yet Covered (Future Work)
| Category | Status | Notes |
| Cross-library differential (vs bitcoin-core/libsecp256k1) | NOT YET | Would be strongest credibility signal for external auditors; nightly has test_cross_libsecp256k1 but not in unified runner |
| GPU correctness audit | DEFERRED | Separate report when GPU side is complete |
| GPU memory safety (compute-sanitizer) | DEFERRED | Separate report |
| Reproducible build proof | NOT YET | Two independent machines -> identical binary hash |
| SBOM (CycloneDX/SPDX) | PARTIAL | Generated in release pipeline |
| Deep dudect (perf counters, cache probes) | PARTIAL | dudect full runs nightly; perf stat / cache analysis not automated |
