1//! What:
2//! The owner record of one commit-transaction directory (`owner.json`,
3//! schema version 2)
4//! and the liveness rule that decides whether recovery may touch the transaction.
5//! Why:
6//! The owner record is written before the directory is published,
7//! so recovery can skip a
8//! live owner's transaction at every phase.
9//! Both wrappers write and judge the same record
10//! (`src/policy-engine/commit-transaction-owner.ts`).
11//!
12//! In TS you'd write (pseudocode):
13//! ```ts
14//! const owner = parseTransactionOwner(bytes); const liveness = await classifyTransactionOwner(owner);
15//! ```

35/// `created_at`,

37/// as ISO-8601 text,

205///
