Older personal keys are preserved for historical verification, continuity, and decryption of archived material. They should not be selected for new correspondence or new signatures unless specifically required for archival validation. The dedicated GitHub key AF5E 0032 F749 4CEB CAA7 BBBE 9B87 CFBB CFDB AF11 is a scoped code-signing key and is not a general personal identity key. This transition is a modernization and hygiene update only. It is not a compromise notification.
