What happened

Hydra merged PR #2836, “Script integrity and reference scripts,” to master. The record says the pull request fixes issue #2594, but provides no further description of the change’s scope.

Why it matters

Script-integrity handling and reference scripts bear on the smart-contract transactions a Hydra head can process. For builders targeting Hydra Layer 2, the practical signal is that this work has landed in development and is worth tracking.

What to watch next

Watch the pull-request diff and subsequent release material for a clearer account of supported behavior, testing, and availability. Current evidence supports neither a claim that the work is in a shipped mainnet release nor assumptions about which contracts now run on a Hydra head.

What to watch

The PR #2836 diff and later release notes are the next useful receipts.
