+## Soft Deletion
+
+Deleted transactions are kept in the database for a grace period before being permanently removed. There are two soft-deletion mechanisms:
+
+### Slot-Based Soft Deletion
+
+When a transaction is deleted from the pool (eviction, validation failure, failed execution) and is **not** from a pruned block, it is "slot-soft-deleted":
+
+1. **Soft Delete**: The tx is removed from indices but kept in the database, tagged with the current slot number
+2. **Retrieval**: Slot-soft-deleted txs can still be retrieved via `getTxByHash` and return status `'deleted'` from `getTxStatus`
+3. **Hard Delete**: When `prepareForSlot` advances to a new slot, txs deleted in earlier slots are permanently removed
+4. **Re-addition**: If a slot-soft-deleted tx is re-added to the pool, the slot-deleted tracking is cleared
+
+This allows other nodes to still fetch recently-deleted transactions via reqresp during the current slot.
+
+### Prune-Based Soft Deletion
+
+When a chain reorganization occurs, transactions that were mined in pruned blocks are handled with longer retention:
+
+1. **Tracking**: When `handlePrunedBlocks` is called, all un-mined transactions are tracked by their original mined block number
+2. **Soft Delete**: If these transactions are later evicted (failed validation, nullifier conflict, etc.), they are "prune-soft-deleted" - removed from indices but kept in the database
+3. **Retrieval**: Prune-soft-deleted txs can still be retrieved via `getTxByHash` and return status `'deleted'` from `getTxStatus`
+4. **Hard Delete**: When `handleFinalizedBlock` is called and the finalized block number reaches or exceeds the transaction's original mined block, the transaction is permanently removed
+5. **Re-addition**: If a prune-soft-deleted tx is re-added, the `softDeleted` flag is reset to `false` but the prune tracking is preserved, so a subsequent deletion still uses the prune path
+
+Prune-soft-deleted transactions are **not** affected by slot cleanup - they survive across slot boundaries until finalized.
+
+**Prune example:**
+1. Tx mined at block 10
+2. Chain prunes to block 5 (tx becomes un-mined, tracked as minedAtBlock=10)
+3. Tx fails validation and is prune-soft-deleted
+4. Block 9 finalized → tx still in DB (minedAtBlock=10 > finalized=9)
+5. Block 10 finalized → tx hard-deleted (minedAtBlock=10 ≤ finalized=10)
+
+If the tx is re-mined at a higher block before being soft-deleted:
+1. Tx mined at block 10, pruned (tracked as minedAtBlock=10)
+2. Tx re-mined at block 15, pruned again (updated to minedAtBlock=15)
+3. Tx soft-deleted
+4. Block 10 finalized → tx still in DB
+5. Block 15 finalized → tx hard-deleted
+
+### Hydration
+
+On node restart, slot-soft-deleted transactions are immediately hard-deleted (they are stale by definition). Prune-soft-deleted transactions are loaded from the database and tracked normally.
