+# Public Site Contract
+
+The public Bitflash sites are generated from this repository. If a deployed
+page and the source disagree, the deployed page is stale.
+
+## Canonical Navigation
+
+Every public page should use the same top navigation:
+
+| label | target |
+|---|---|
+| home | `https://bitflash.network/` |
+| code | `https://git.bitflash.network/bitflash/bitflash` |
+| docs | `https://docs.bitflash.network/` |
+| downloads | `https://releases.bitflash.network/` |
+| explorer | `https://explorer.bitflash.network/` |
+| status | `https://status.bitflash.network/` |
+
+The `code` link intentionally points at the repository, not the Forgejo
+instance root. A visitor choosing "code" wants the source tree.
+
+## Documentation Pages To Publish
+
+The docs index should expose these source files:
+
+| page | source | why it matters |
+|---|---|---|
+| Manual | `README.md` | run, mine, recover, operate |
+| Key derivation and address format | `docs/derivation.md` | independent wallet recovery |
+| Release verification | `docs/release-verification.md` | pinned signing-key flow |
+| Dependencies | `docs/dependencies.md` | pinned secp256k1/RandomX supply chain |
+| Rendezvous and .btf addressing | `docs/rendezvous.md` | network design and caveats |
+| Tor mode | `docs/tor.md` | `-tor`, `-socks`, onion relay operation |
+| Fair launch verifier | `docs/fair-launch.md` | no-premine launch audit |
+| UTXO set commitment | `docs/utxo-commitment.md` | deterministic supply/root audit |
+| UTXO inclusion proofs | `docs/utxo-proofs.md` | proof for one unspent output |
+| Mining calculator | `docs/mining-calculator.md` | local WhatToMine-style estimates |
+| Public pool directory | `docs/pool-directory.md` | `pool_status.json`, `pools.json`, ranking |
+
+## Release Mirror Aliases
+
+Each release remains under its versioned directory:
+
+```text
+https://releases.bitflash.network/v1.2.19/SHA256SUMS
+https://releases.bitflash.network/v1.2.19/SHA256SUMS.asc
+```
+
+The release root should also alias the latest files:
+
+```text
+https://releases.bitflash.network/SHA256SUMS
+https://releases.bitflash.network/SHA256SUMS.asc
+https://releases.bitflash.network/Bitflash-latest-windows.zip
+https://releases.bitflash.network/Bitflash-latest-x86_64.AppImage
+https://releases.bitflash.network/bitflash-node-latest-x86_64
+```
+
+The aliases are convenience only. Verification must still require the pinned
+release key documented in `docs/release-verification.md`.
+
+## Static Explorer
+
+`scripts/build-explorer.py` writes a static explorer with no backend:
+
+```text
+index.html
+style.css
+explorer.js
+logo.png
+blocks.json
+block/<height>.json
+```
+
+Serve it with a strict content policy:
+
+```text
+default-src 'none';
+img-src 'self';
+style-src 'self';
+script-src 'self';
+connect-src 'self';
+base-uri 'none';
+form-action 'none';
+frame-ancestors 'none';
+```
+
+The viewer must never use `innerHTML` for chain data. A malicious transaction
+must be rendered as text, not interpreted as markup.
+
+## Cache Policy
+
+Recommended defaults:
+
+| path | cache |
+|---|---|
+| HTML pages | `public, max-age=0, must-revalidate` |
+| `status.json` | `no-store` |
+| `blocks.json`, `block/*.json` | `public, max-age=0, must-revalidate` |
+| release assets | `public, max-age=14400, must-revalidate` |
+| `SHA256SUMS`, signatures, keys | `public, max-age=0, must-revalidate` |
+
+## Security Headers
+
+Recommended for all static pages:
+
+```text
+Strict-Transport-Security: max-age=31536000; includeSubDomains
+X-Content-Type-Options: nosniff
+Referrer-Policy: no-referrer
+Permissions-Policy: interest-cohort=(), geolocation=(), camera=(), microphone=()
+```
+
+Forgejo has its own application headers and should not blindly inherit the
+static-site CSP.
