Lane: docs · Owner: P1 (Jon) · Phase: stretch / post-MVP · Priority: P2
Why
The hackathon demo ships USB tether + ML-DSA signed CoT (Phase 3 hero). The sister stretch issues add ML-KEM session encryption if Sun 0700 go/no-go is GO. Either way, the PRD pitch deck and post-hackathon roadmap need a clear architecture document for the production-grade encrypted tunnel — what we'd build for a pilot deployment with a Marine unit or a SAR team.
This issue produces that document. It is a slide-and-deck artifact, not build work. It is what we point xTech / SBIR / OTA reviewers at when they ask "what's the production posture?"
Acceptance criteria
File pointers
docs/adrs/2026-05-03-NNN-production-encrypted-tunnel.md (new)
- May lift sections directly into
docs/PRD.md §8.5 (deferred-but-documented)
Dependencies
- None for the writing itself.
- Should reference PRD §7, §8, §10 (business model / dual-use channels), §11 (success metrics).
Defer condition
Lowest priority of the three encrypted-tunnel stretch issues. Defer to post-hackathon if Sun 1000 demo lockdown is consuming all available time. Worst case: become an issue to fill in during finalist deliberations (Sun 1300-1410).
Refs PRD §8.5 (deferred-but-documented), §10 (post-hackathon channels), and PRD §11.3 (north stars).
