backup-chain@1.3.2

CAUTION

Publisher claims: "Fenced, hash-chained workspace backups: tarball snapshots carrying a monotonic generation counter and parent sha256 inside each archive, an append-only external ledger (file or user-supplied command — no platform code), gated builds (member presence, manifest roundtrip, restore drill, etc.)" Observed in sandbox: static analysis only — behavior not yet observed.
