# Stateful gateway safety model
The public gateway persists installation authority, encrypted APNs-token custody, relay delegations, replay reservations, and endpoint quotas in PostgreSQL. The relay separately owns lease matching, event authorization, coalescing, and durable delivery jobs.
The bounded executable model in `nip-pl/delivery.py` checks:
1. delivery requires the NIP-98 signer sealed into the grant;
2. installation, delegation, epoch, generation, and both expiries are live at admission;
3. revocation/rotation and admission are ordered by one durable authority transaction;
4. every admitted NIP-98 event id is burned, terminal request ids remain burned, and transient request ids are released only after disposition;
5. quota is charged for every admitted attempt and never refunded;
6. APNs-token custody failure cannot send;
7. every actual send body is the byte constant registered by NIP-PL; and
8. old-epoch grants cannot resurrect after endpoint rotation.
`nip-pl/delivery_mutation.py` weakens signer, epoch, terminal-burn, quota, and fixed-body checks and requires each mutant to be caught. The model does not claim exactly-once provider delivery, model PostgreSQL implementation details, or cover the not-yet-shipped relay matcher/worker.
