docs: correct false Blake3-checksum, pickle and orjson claims (LAB-3016, LAB-3017) - #280
Conversation
…cstrings (LAB-3016, LAB-3017) The shipped ByteStorage integrity checksum is xxHash3-64 (8 bytes) — cachekit-core src/byte_storage.rs and rust/src/lib.rs both say so, and tests/unit/test_xxhash_integrity.py enforces the 8-byte width. Several docs still claimed Blake3 checksums, which was true before the migration and is now a trust bug. BLAKE3 is only the cache-KEY hash in src/cachekit/hash_utils.py — a separate subsystem, left untouched. - tests/competitive + rust/TEST_EXPANSION_SUMMARY.md: Blake3 → xxHash3-64. - rust/supply-chain/config.toml: blake3 is not in this crate's dependency tree at all (absent from Cargo.lock and `cargo tree -i blake3 --all-features`); the exemption note claimed it did integrity checking. Note rewritten; the exemption entry itself is left for a cargo-vet cleanup, not this PR. - SECURITY.md: blake3 is not a cachekit-core dependency. Sentence now names the crates core actually ships (ring/aes-gcm, lz4_flex, xxhash-rust, rmp-serde, hkdf, sha2) and points blake3 at the Python cache-key dependency it really is. - serializers/__init__.py: AutoSerializer never pickles — default_format accepts only "msgpack", and with integrity off it returns raw msgpack. - orjson_serializer.py: OrjsonSerializer never enters ByteStorage; its envelope is [xxHash3-64][json] or raw json, so "handled by Rust layer if enabled" described a path that does not exist.

- Line 58: Update the xxHash3-64 checksum statement in the summary to say it
detects “all tested multi-byte corruption patterns,” matching the wording used
at Line 237 and limiting the claim to the covered cases.

Why
The shipped ByteStorage integrity checksum is xxHash3-64 (8 bytes) —
cachekit-core/src/byte_storage.rs(pub checksum: [u8; 8], "xxHash3-64 checksum for integrity"),rust/src/lib.rs(__description__), andtests/unit/test_xxhash_integrity.pyall say so. Several docs still claimed Blake3 checksums, which was true before the migration and is now a trust bug. BLAKE3 is only the cache-key hash insrc/cachekit/hash_utils.py— a separate, correct subsystem, left untouched.Two adjacent docstring lies in the serializers are fixed in the same sweep.

This PR is the docs pass. No docs.cachekit.io or protocol-spec surface mentions Blake3 checksums (the protocol spec is already xxHash3-64). Note for a follow-up:
