+# Bridge Sync Contract Chain
+
+## Scope
+
+This note documents the account-driven bridge sync chain after the naming unification to:
+
+- `BRIDGE_SERVER_URL`
+- `BRIDGE_AUTH_TOKEN`
+
+It focuses on the runtime data path:
+
+- `accounts.svc.plus`
+- `xworkmate-app`
+- `xworkmate-bridge`
+
+and the two key client-side parsing assertions:
+
+- `BRIDGE_SERVER_URL` is written into account sync state
+- `BRIDGE_AUTH_TOKEN` is written into secure storage
+
+## Sync Chain
+
+```mermaid
+flowchart LR
+    A["accounts.svc.plus\nprotected login / MFA / sync / bootstrap response"] -->|returns| B["xworkmate-app\nparse BRIDGE_SERVER_URL\nparse BRIDGE_AUTH_TOKEN"]
+    B -->|write| C["AccountSyncState.syncedDefaults.bridgeServerUrl"]
+    B -->|write secure only| D["Secure Storage\nbridge.auth_token"]
+    C -->|drive runtime metadata| E["cloudSynced.remoteServerSummary.endpoint"]
+    D -->|Authorization: Bearer <token>| F["xworkmate-app runtime requests"]
+    F --> G["xworkmate-bridge"]
+```
+
+## Field Ownership
+
+```mermaid
+flowchart TD
+    A["accounts.svc.plus"] --> A1["BRIDGE_SERVER_URL\nplain response field"]
+    A --> A2["BRIDGE_AUTH_TOKEN\nprotected response field only"]
+
+    B["xworkmate-app"] --> B1["sync state\nstores BRIDGE_SERVER_URL-derived bridgeServerUrl"]
+    B --> B2["secure storage\nstores BRIDGE_AUTH_TOKEN as bridge.auth_token"]
+    B --> B3["normal settings/profile\nmust not persist BRIDGE_AUTH_TOKEN"]
+
+    C["xworkmate-bridge"] --> C1["consume bootstrap response"]
+    C1 --> C2["uses BRIDGE_SERVER_URL"]
+    C1 --> C3["uses BRIDGE_AUTH_TOKEN"]
+```
+
+## Parsing And Persistence Checks
+
+```mermaid
+sequenceDiagram
+    participant Accounts as accounts.svc.plus
+    participant App as xworkmate-app
+    participant SyncState as Account Sync State
+    participant SecureStore as Secure Storage
+    participant Bridge as xworkmate-bridge
+
+    Accounts->>App: protected response\nBRIDGE_SERVER_URL\nBRIDGE_AUTH_TOKEN
+    App->>SyncState: save bridgeServerUrl from BRIDGE_SERVER_URL
+    App->>SecureStore: save bridge.auth_token from BRIDGE_AUTH_TOKEN
+    App->>Bridge: connect with Authorization: Bearer <token>
+```
+
+## Test Coverage Targets
+
+```mermaid
+flowchart TD
+    T["Account sync parsing tests"] --> T1["assert BRIDGE_SERVER_URL -> AccountSyncState.syncedDefaults.bridgeServerUrl"]
+    T --> T2["assert BRIDGE_SERVER_URL -> cloudSynced.remoteServerSummary.endpoint"]
+    T --> T3["assert BRIDGE_AUTH_TOKEN -> secure storage target bridge.auth_token"]
+    T --> T4["assert BRIDGE_AUTH_TOKEN never enters normal settings/profile persistence"]
+    T --> T5["assert offline path can still read token from secure storage"]
+```
+
+## Expected Invariants
+
+- `BRIDGE_SERVER_URL` is the only bridge endpoint field used by the sync contract.
+- `BRIDGE_AUTH_TOKEN` is the only bridge token field used by the sync contract.
+- `BRIDGE_AUTH_TOKEN` must never be written into normal settings snapshot, profile JSON, or UI-visible text.
+- Client requests must assemble the header as `Authorization: Bearer <token>`.
