+//! Guardian Multisig Contract
+//!
+//! An N-of-M threshold signer contract for the YieldLadder governance system.
+//! The Guardian role in the Governance contract is satisfied by deploying this
+//! contract and setting its address as the `guardian` during `Governance::initialize`.
+//!
+//! ## Design
+//! - Up to 10 owners can be registered at initialisation time.
+//! - Any owner can submit a veto proposal targeting a `governance_contract` + `proposal_id`.
+//! - Once `threshold` distinct owners have confirmed the same veto proposal it is
+//!   automatically dispatched to `Governance::veto`.
+//! - Executed / expired veto proposals are cleaned up from persistent storage.
