## What Changed (Summary)
### Header Format
- **Old**: Separate `ATLAS-GATE_PLAN_HASH` and `COSIGN_SIGNATURE` fields
- **New**: Single `ATLAS-GATE_PLAN_SIGNATURE` field with URL-safe base64 value
### Plan Addressing
- **Old**: Hash-based (64 hex characters)
- **New**: Signature-based (43 base64 characters)
### File Naming
- **Old**: `docs/plans/<hash>.md`
- **New**: `docs/plans/<signature>.md`
### Cryptography
- **Old**: SHA256 for hashing, separate cosign for signing
- **New**: ECDSA P-256 cosign for everything (unified)
### Linting Stages
- **All 7 stages**: Unchanged in validation logic
- **Stage 7**: Now produces URL-safe base64 signature instead of separate hash

## FAQ
**Q: Which file should I use to generate plans?**
A: `docs/templates/antigravity_planning_prompt_v2.md`
**Q: What's the plan header format?**
A: `ATLAS-GATE_PLAN_SIGNATURE: PENDING_SIGNATURE` (not separate fields)
**Q: How long are signatures?**
A: 43 characters (URL-safe base64, no special path characters)
**Q: Where do plans get stored?**
A: `docs/plans/<signature>.md` (filename is the signature)
**Q: Where are the crypto keys?**
A: `.atlas-gate/.cosign-keys/` (auto-generated on first run)
**Q: How does verification work?**
A: WINDSURF canonicalizes plan content, then verifies cosign signature using public key
**Q: Can plans be modified after signing?**
A: No - modification invalidates the signature, execution stops
**Q: Do I need to learn all the linting stages?**
A: Not unless debugging. Just follow the planning prompt and let the linter validate.
