Research direction

No files or tests are named. Start by tracing the syncer’s p2p.Head request and GossipSub header-receipt handling; determine how a newly received head is represented and where the request currently blocks. Done means a header received through GossipSub during the request allows synchronization to proceed without waiting for the p2p.Head response.
