transport-neutral replay rules, application-specific signature namespaces,
allowed-signers projection, and JSONL sigchain helpers live in `geth-keychain`
so other applications can reuse the same identity-log model without depending
on the daemon, SQLite, Iroh, or local control. `geth keychain sync <node>` pulls
keychain operations and signatures from an imported peer over Iroh and imports
only operations with a valid OpenSSH signature from a currently trusted admin
key over the canonical payload. See `docs/sigchain-keychain.md` for the
detailed sigchain design. This is currently a pull-based signed operation log,
not a CRDT or Keyhive-style convergent authority.
on the daemon, SQLite, Iroh, or local control. The CLI can export the same
reduced key registry as OpenSSH `allowed_signers` or as appendable JSONL
sigchain data for website publication. It can also sign and verify arbitrary
snapshots, such as externally managed `authorized_keys`, with an active
keychain signer under an explicit OpenSSH namespace. `geth keychain
publish-bundle` writes a website-ready bundle for
`https://example.com/.well-known/sshsigchain/`, including `allowed_signers`,
`geth.sigchain.jsonl`, a signed checkpoint, and optional signed snapshots.
`geth keychain fetch --import` verifies the checkpoint and records the last
accepted checkpoint per retrieval source URL to reject older bundles. The
retrieval source may be a local mirror; the checkpoint still carries the signed
advertised publication base URL, and explicit checkpoint verification can pin it. `geth keychain
explain` and `explain-signer` provide basic auditability for why a keychain
operation or signer is trusted. `geth keychain sync <node>` pulls keychain
operations and signatures from an imported peer over Iroh and imports only
operations with a valid OpenSSH signature from a currently trusted admin key
over the canonical payload. See `docs/sigchain-keychain.md` for the detailed
sigchain design. This is currently a pull-based signed operation log, not a
CRDT or Keyhive-style convergent authority.
New devices can use the node enrollment flow instead of hand-editing keychain
state. `geth node enroll request` creates a canonical, agent-key-signed request
