## Introduction

This document describes the process of the Capella upgrade.

## Configuration

Warning: this configuration is not definitive.

| Name | Value |
| - | - |
| `CAPELLA_FORK_VERSION` | `Version('0x03000000')` |
| `CAPELLA_FORK_EPOCH` | `Epoch(18446744073709551615)` **TBD** |


## Fork to Capella

### Fork trigger

The fork is triggered at epoch `CAPELLA_FORK_EPOCH`.

Note that for the pure Capella networks, we don't apply `upgrade_to_capella` since it starts with Capella version logic.

### Upgrading the state

If `state.slot % SLOTS_PER_EPOCH == 0` and `compute_epoch_at_slot(state.slot) == CAPELLA_FORK_EPOCH`,
an irregular state change is made to upgrade to Capella.

The upgrade occurs after the completion of the inner loop of `process_slots` that sets `state.slot` equal to `CAPELLA_FORK_EPOCH * SLOTS_PER_EPOCH`.
Care must be taken when transitioning through the fork boundary as implementations will need a modified [state transition function](../phase0/beacon-chain.md#beacon-chain-state-transition-function) that deviates from the Phase 0 document.
In particular, the outer `state_transition` function defined in the Phase 0 document will not expose the precise fork slot to execute the upgrade in the presence of skipped slots at the fork boundary. Instead the logic must be within `process_slots`.
