Access continuity · PRESENCE SIGNAL

Stop checking in — access goes to the people you chose.

Tap “I’m here” weekly. If check-ins stop, Access continuity warns you, leaves time to cancel, and only then grants chosen people access to selected repositories and instructions.

I'M HERE

01 · CONTROL

Critical access should not depend on one person

If an owner cannot respond, family or partners may not know where instructions live, which repositories matter, or how to continue. Access continuity defines that process in advance—without panic or rushed decisions.

QUADRIGACX · VERIFIED CONTEXT

Why single-person control is a real risk

After QuadrigaCX’s chief executive died in December 2018, the case exposed the danger of weak internal controls and dependence on one person. The Ontario Securities Commission’s report, published in June 2020, found C$215 million owed to clients and that fraud—not simply lost keys—caused most of the shortfall.

How it works

Four clear states. The owner’s check-in resets the timer until access is actually granted.

01

I’m here

A GitHub or Telegram check-in resets the timer.

02

Warnings

Messages arrive 7, 3 and 1 day before the threshold.

03

Final 72 hours

The threshold has passed, but access is still closed. One check-in cancels the process.

04

Access granted

After the final window, chosen people receive access to listed repositories and instructions.

What you don’t need to fear

A holiday

Three warnings plus a final 72-hour cancellation window.

A lost phone

Check in through GitHub or Telegram on another device.

A bad setting

The minimum is one day; invalid values fall back to 30 days.

Testing it

testMode runs in 5 minutes and technically blocks real access changes.

What Access continuity does NOT do

This is a focused access-transfer mechanism, not universal protection.

It does not protect funds. Use a separate multisig for a treasury.

It does not replace a will, contract, or other legal document.

It cannot protect against someone who already has full repository access and can alter the state.

TESTMODE · 05:00

A 5-minute demo: nothing is transferred

Walk through the full flow. This is a visual testMode simulation: no access is ever granted.

Questions and answers

How often do I check in?+

Usually weekly. The actual threshold is configurable; the default is 30 days.

When do warnings arrive?+

7, 3 and 1 day before the threshold. Warnings that do not fit a short threshold are skipped.

What happens after 30 days?+

A final 72-hour window starts. Access is still closed, and any check-in cancels the flow.

What do recipients receive?+

Access to listed GitHub repositories and the instructions stored there. You decide what those materials contain.

Can I choose several people?+

Yes. The configuration supports a list of recipients and access permissions.

Where does Access continuity run?+

Checks run in GitHub Actions; check-ins work through a GitHub workflow or Telegram bot.

Can I test it without granting access?+

Yes. testMode compresses the cycle to 5 minutes and blocks real access changes.

Does it replace estate planning?+

No. It complements—but does not replace—legal documents, multisig, and sound access management.
