Timelocked Admin Actions for Sensitive Contract Operations

[Cedarich]

Description
Add timelocks for high-impact admin actions such as registry updates, treasury destination changes, pause authority rotation, and upgrade execution. Complexity: High (200 points)

Requirements and Context

• Background: Immediate privileged changes increase governance risk and reduce time for community review.
• Success Criteria (Done):
  • Sensitive admin actions are queued with an execution delay.
  • Queued operations can be inspected and cancelled before execution.
  • Execution emits events with proposer, target action, and timestamp metadata.

Suggested Execution

• Fork/Branch: security/admin-timelocks
• Implementation: Start with a focused timelock module used by registry and treasury-related contracts first.

Guidelines

• Complexity: High (200 points)

Hi, I can handle this. I’ll introduce a timelock layer for sensitive admin operations, queue high-impact actions with enforced delays, allow inspection/cancellation before execution, and emit detailed audit events for transparency across registry and treasury changes.
