🌳 Merkle Tree Construction
Step-by-step cryptographic proof showing how all artifacts are bound together
📄 Level 0: Leaf Nodes (Individual File Hashes)
Each file's content is hashed using SHA-256 to create a unique fingerprint. These are the "leaves" of the Merkle tree.

🔗 Level 1: Intermediate Nodes
Pairs of hashes from the level below are combined and hashed together to create this level. (Odd number detected: last hash is duplicated for pairing)

✅ MERKLE ROOT (Final Level)
This is the single hash that represents ALL files in the collection. This root hash is included in the manifest that gets digitally signed.

- Any change to ANY file will change its hash (leaf node)
- This changes all parent nodes up to the root
- The digital signature validates this specific root hash
- Therefore: ALL files are cryptographically proven by ONE signature
