Research direction

Start with sub-issue #4, which determines whether to use a custom transaction submission client or celestia-node. Then follow the dependency order through #9, #5, #8, #18, and #19. The work is done when the complete write path can construct, sign, nonce, broadcast, and confirm blob transactions for the higher-level storage APIs.

Description

Summary

Tracking issue for the full blob submission (write path) pipeline. This is a prerequisite for all higher-level storage APIs (#43).

Apex is currently read-only. To support S3, Git, and npm storage APIs, we need a complete write path: construct transactions, sign them, manage nonces, broadcast, and confirm.

Sub-issues (dependency order)

Core submission client
  • #4 — Evaluate custom tx submission client vs celestia-node client (root decision)
Signing & identity
  • #9 — Keyring and signing for transaction submission
  • #5 — Multi-account support for transaction submission
Reliability
  • #8 — Nonce management for transaction submission
  • #18 — Rate limiting and circuit breaker for transaction submission
  • #19 — Transaction confirmation and lifecycle tracking

Dependency graph

#4 (submission client decision)
├── #9 (keyring/signing)
│   └── #5 (multi-account)
├── #8 (nonce management)
│   └── #5 (multi-account)
├── #18 (rate limiting / circuit breaker)
└── #19 (tx confirmation / lifecycle)

Relationship to storage APIs

The storage platform features (#43) all depend on this pipeline:

S3 API (#40) ──┐
Git remote (#41) ──┼── Blob Submission Pipeline (this issue)
NPM registry (#42) ──┘         │
                          ┌─────┴─────┐
                          #4 #8 #9 #5 #18 #19

Without a working write path, the storage APIs are read-only caches at best.
