Kgothatso Ngako c8cbd936f1 docs: record where the sync's safety net is, and where it is not
Two updates after the test pass.

long-running-sync.md gains a section naming what each test file pins and, more
usefully, the three things they cannot reach: NostrSocketClientImpl's reconnect
loop and ordered inbound (exercised only through their extracted arithmetic —
covering them wants a fake WebSocketSession), everything downstream of
saveNostrEvent (Room-backed, and there is no sqlite driver on the JVM test
classpath), and the app on a device. The manual checks stay the manual checks.

It also records that the tests were verified by mutation rather than by passing,
so the next person knows the assertions were confirmed to bite.

dead-code.md's line references are refreshed — the testability seams shifted
most of them — and it now says which commit they were correct at and to confirm
with the grep rather than trusting them. One entry added: the
DefaultNostrSocketClientFactory overload taking an explicit HttpClient has no
caller now that everything goes through the interface method.

mantra docs

Notes on the parts of this app whose behaviour is not recoverable by reading the code alone — where the reasoning lives in a protocol, a failure mode that is silent, or a decision that looked arbitrary and was not.

document covers
shared-key-ceremony.md ChillDKG over NIP-17: the rounds, the approval gates, the chat transcript, participant ordering
shared-key-derivation.md deriving further keys from the group's threshold key with FROST tweaks — why not BIP32, why no chain code, and the one rule that must not be broken
marmot-membership.md how members join an MLS group, and the epoch race that makes a missing member look like a successful invite
long-running-sync.md the chat subscriptions that stay open instead of pulling once per screen — why the request queue could not simply hold one, and how the group filter follows the room list
dead-code.md code in the sync and relay stack that nothing calls, why each piece is still there, and which of it is a bug rather than a leftover

Start with the ceremony if you are new to this area; the next two both assume it. The last two stand alone, and the dead-code inventory reads as a follow-up to the sync note.
