+#### OCI Storage Formats
+
+The `storage.oci.format` configuration supports three distinct storage formats, each designed for different use cases:
+
+##### Legacy Format (`legacy`)
+- **Storage Mechanism**: Tag-based storage using `<image>:sha256-<digest>.sig` and `<image>:sha256-<digest>.att` tags
+- **Serialization Format**: DSSE (Dead Simple Signing Envelope) format
+- **Compatibility**: Full backward compatibility with existing tooling and deployments
+- **Registry Impact**: Creates additional tags in the registry for each signature and attestation
+- **Use Case**: Production deployments requiring maximum compatibility
+
+**Example Configuration:**
+```yaml
+apiVersion: v1
+kind: ConfigMap
+metadata:
+  name: chains-config
+  namespace: tekton-chains
+data:
+  storage.oci.format: "legacy"
+```
+
+##### Referrers API Format (`referrers-api`)
+- **Storage Mechanism**: OCI 1.1 Referrers API for artifact relationships
+- **Serialization Format**: DSSE (Dead Simple Signing Envelope) format - same as legacy
+- **Compatibility**: Compatible with OCI 1.1 registries and DSSE-aware tooling
+- **Registry Impact**: Uses referrers API, significantly reducing tag proliferation
+- **Use Case**: Modern OCI 1.1 registries where tag reduction is desired while maintaining DSSE compatibility
+
+**Example Configuration:**
+```yaml
+apiVersion: v1
+kind: ConfigMap
+metadata:
+  name: chains-config
+  namespace: tekton-chains
+data:
+  storage.oci.format: "referrers-api"
+```
+
+##### Protobuf Bundle Format (`protobuf-bundle`)
+- **Storage Mechanism**: OCI 1.1 Referrers API for artifact relationships
+- **Serialization Format**: Protobuf bundle format for experimental cosign features
+- **Compatibility**: Requires cosign experimental features and latest tooling
+- **Registry Impact**: Uses referrers API with experimental serialization
+- **Use Case**: Testing new cosign features and experimental workflows
+
+**Example Configuration:**
+```yaml
+apiVersion: v1
+kind: ConfigMap
+metadata:
+  name: chains-config
+  namespace: tekton-chains
+data:
+  storage.oci.format: "protobuf-bundle"
+```
+
+**Important Notes:**
+- The default format is `legacy` to ensure backward compatibility
+- Referrers API formats (`referrers-api` and `protobuf-bundle`) require OCI 1.1 compatible registries
+- Format changes affect both signatures and attestations
+- The `protobuf-bundle` format is experimental and may change in future releases
+
+**Migration from Deprecated Configuration:**
+The deprecated `storage.oci.referrers-api` boolean configuration is automatically migrated:
+- `storage.oci.referrers-api: false` → `storage.oci.format: "legacy"`
+- `storage.oci.referrers-api: true` → `storage.oci.format: "protobuf-bundle"`
+
+See the [OCI Format Migration Guide](oci-format-migration.md) for detailed migration instructions.
