@@ -90,7 +90,7 @@ A red golden test has two legitimate resolutions, and one illegitimate one.
 If the format genuinely has not shipped and must change:
 
 1. Land the format change and get the round-trip tests green first, so the shape you freeze is the one that will ship.
-2. Generate the vectors **outside this module**, in a throwaway Node script that imports only `hpke` and uses `crypto.subtle` directly. Do not import from `envelope.ts`, `hpke.ts` or `key-wrap.ts`: vectors produced by the code under test only restate what it does. Use fixed inputs so the run is reproducible: the existing `kB`, `prfOut`, `uid`, `credentialId` and `keyWrapIv` are fine to keep. The script must, by hand: frame the context as `len(uid) || uid || len(credentialId) || credentialId`, each length a 2-byte big-endian prefix, `uid` decoded from hex and `credentialId` from base64url; derive a 256-bit AES-GCM key from `prfOut` with HKDF-SHA512, empty salt, `info` = `KEY_WRAP_KDF_INFO`; left-pad the scalar to 66 bytes and AES-256-GCM it under `KEY_WRAP_AAD_LABEL || context` with the fixed `keyWrapIv`; and `Seal` `kB` to `pkR` with `HPKE_INFO_LABEL || context` as `info` and empty `aad`. Every constant is copied by value, not imported, so a typo fails the golden test rather than silently agreeing with the module.

Every constant is copied by value, not imported, so a typo fails the golden test rather than silently agreeing with the module.
 3. Replace the vector fields in `v1-envelope-fixture.json`. Update `_provenance` with the date, commit, `hpke` version and reason. The reviewer should open the new envelope the same way, with a script that imports nothing from this module, and say so in the review; the `independentlyVerified` entry records the last time that was done.
 4. Run the golden suite. The hash test fails and prints the digest it computed. Recompute it yourself to confirm, from the module directory, and update `FIXTURE_SHA256`. Nothing else in the test should need to change.
