koi_common/envelope.rs
1//! The signed `Envelope` wire type and the `verify` verdict (`Assurance`).
2//!
3//! ADR-020 §3. `sign(bytes) -> Envelope` returns a freshness-stamped passthrough
4//! in Open posture and a real ES256-signed envelope in Authenticated posture —
5//! the consumer can't tell and shouldn't have to. `verify(&Envelope) ->
6//! Assurance` returns an *assurance level*, never a bool, so authorization keys
7//! uniformly off "authenticated-as-CN vs. fresh-but-anonymous".
8//!
9//! These are the **wire types only** (serde-stable, schema'd for the published
10//! contract); the signing/verification *logic* lives in `koi-certmesh` (it needs
11//! the identity key + roster). Honesty note on the nonce: it is replay-*uniqueness*
12//! input to the canonical signing bytes (ADR-020 §3); **Koi keeps no seen-nonce
13//! cache** — application-layer replay defence is the consumer's responsibility.
14//! Two misuse-resistance rules from the prior-art research (ADR-020 §13) are
15//! encoded here:
16//!
17//! 1. **One identity door.** [`Assurance::identity`] is the *only* way to read a
18//! trusted CN, and it returns `Some` exclusively for authenticated-AND-fresh —
19//! so the natural `if !rejected { trust }` cannot leak a `Stale` or anonymous
20//! message (the `verify()`-returns-bool footgun).
21//! 2. **Version selects the construction.** [`Envelope::v`] (not an
22//! envelope-declared `alg`) picks the verification algorithm from a hard-coded
23//! table — closing the JWT `alg:"none"` / algorithm-confusion class. The
24//! [`SigAlg`] set is closed.
