The Decision Design Framework details the approach to design each decision module within this diagram. Read the post Updates to the Standard Rollup Charter The Standard Rollup Charter has been updated to include: History integrity checks to assess discrepancies between chains have been moved to offchain tooling. These checks ensure chains that were deployed before the Blockspace Charter or the Standard Rollup are implemented correctly and are consistent with the Law of Chains. Temporary control structures have been added to a limited set of chains. Upgrades for Base and Unichain will be implemented through a 3 / 3 upgrade multisig, with the following signers: the Optimism Security Council, the Optimism Foundation, and the Chain Governor.
