Problem
Immediate admin changes make compromised or mistaken rotations difficult to detect or cancel.
Objective
Deliver a production-quality improvement to administrator and governance lifecycle that creates measurable value for correctness, security, reliability, performance, or maintainability.
Implementation scope
- Implement propose/accept/cancel with a cooldown and expiry; restrict callers; emit auditable events; prevent replay.
Acceptance criteria
- Only the pending admin can accept after cooldown; expired proposals fail; cancellation and active authority are deterministic.
Required validation
- Authorization, cooldown, expiry, replay, cancellation, and event tests.
- Existing tests and CI remain passing.
- Add regression coverage for the original failure mode.
- Do not weaken, delete, or skip unrelated tests to obtain a green build.
PR quality bar
- Keep the PR focused and explain design tradeoffs, compatibility impact, and test evidence.
- Avoid typo-only, documentation-only, cosmetic-only, or unrelated refactor submissions.
Out of scope
- Broad rewrites not required by the acceptance criteria.
- Changes to unrelated services, contracts, or user flows.
