Owner directive (2026-07-10), canonical. "…QuantumChain (whole code is quantum criptgraphed and the decypher, even the html)" [src: wiki/development/prompts-archive/by-topic/knowledge-management-and-concept-modeling.md:676]
Content
QuantumChain is the code-custody vault type — third of the OWNER-2026-07-10 vault triad (datachain · blockchain-vault · QuantumChain). Its intent, in the owner's words: the whole code is quantum-cryptographed, along with the decipher — "even the html." The system's executable substance itself is vaulted under quantum-resistant (or quantum) encryption, so shipped code — down to the delivered HTML — is ciphered custody, not plaintext.
Grounded neighbor. The nearest implemented reality is the Vault district's Post-Quantum Session Keys system: PostQuantumKey records with algorithm union kyber | dilithium | sphincs | falcon and an active → rotated → revoked lifecycle [src: concept-validation/concepts/vault/concept.md:43]. These map to the NIST Post-Quantum Cryptography selections (CRYSTALS-KYBER/FIPS 203, CRYSTALS-DILITHIUM/FIPS 204, SPHINCS+/FIPS 205, FALCON) — though "the reference engine only stores the algorithm name and a placeholder publicKeyHash; it performs no real cryptography" [src: concept-validation/concepts/vault/concept.md:67-71].
Honest status note. Full quantum-encrypted code-and-HTML delivery is a research-horizon aspiration: serving encrypted HTML that a client can still render requires an end-to-end decipher path (and true quantum cryptography of code has no production practice today). What exists now is post-quantum key custody metadata. This card records the owner's intent as canon and the PQ-key reality as the current rung toward it; the gap is an engineering roadmap, not a definitional conflict.
