Enum VerifyError 

pub enum VerifyError {
    Tampered,
    NoPublicKey,
    MalformedSignature,
}

Outcome of an inbound verify attempt.

Hand-rolled Display + Error (no thiserror) per repo convention: the OSS substrate keeps its dependency surface deliberately small so the AgenticMem commercial layer can lift the same error shape without re-vendoring proc-macros.

Variants

Tampered

Signature did not validate against the supplied public key over the link’s canonical CBOR. Either the link content was tampered with in flight, the signature bytes themselves were flipped, or the wrong public key was supplied for observed_by.

NoPublicKey

lookup_peer_public_key returned None — the receiver has no enrolled key for observed_by. Callers may choose to treat this as accept-and-flag-as-unsigned (the federation inbound path) or as a hard reject (a future strict-mode operator opt-in).

MalformedSignature

The supplied signature blob was not exactly 64 bytes — Ed25519 signatures are fixed-length, so any other length is structurally invalid before we even try the verify.

Trait Implementations

impl Debug for VerifyError

fn fmt(&self, f: &mut Formatter<'_>) -> Result

Formats the value using the given formatter.

impl Display for VerifyError

fn fmt(&self, f: &mut Formatter<'_>) -> Result

Formats the value using the given formatter.

impl Eq for VerifyError

impl Error for VerifyError

fn source(&self) -> Option<&(dyn Error + 'static)>

Returns the lower-level source of this error, if any.

fn description(&self) -> &str

👎Deprecated since 1.42.0:

use the Display impl or to_string()

fn cause(&self) -> Option<&dyn Error>

👎Deprecated since 1.33.0:

replaced by Error::source, which can support downcasting

fn provide<'a>(&'a self, request: &mut Request<'a>)

🔬This is a nightly-only experimental API. (error_generic_member_access)

Provides type-based access to context intended for error reports.

impl PartialEq for VerifyError

fn eq(&self, other: &VerifyError) -> bool

Tests for self and other values to be equal, and is used by ==.

fn ne(&self, other: &Rhs) -> bool

Tests for !=. The default implementation is almost always sufficient, and should not be overridden without very good reason.
