Hello Andrew,
As ZmnSCPxj mentioned, covenant schemes are probably something that you
should be looking at and thinking about. In addition to CTV, I'd also
recommend you take a look (if you haven't already) at
`TAPLEAF_UPDATE_VERIFY`
(https://lists.linuxfoundation.org/pipermail/bitcoin-dev/2021-September/019419.html).
From your description, it sounds like you may be barking up a similar tree.
