The conformance suite defines the behavior an implementation must satisfy to claim OpenAgent ID compatibility.

Required areas

Current alignment

OpenAgent Core v1.1.0 uses:
  • canonical Authorization: OpenAgent <base64url(sig)>.<base64url(pubkey)>,
  • X-OpenAgent-Key-Type and nonce metadata as separate headers,
  • challenge JSON containing type, nonce, timestamp, origin, and optional realm,
  • day-one trust tiers: anonymous, identified, sovereign,
  • HTTP as the normative launch binding.
Some older fixtures describe alternative key-value authorization syntax or five trust tiers. Those are compatibility or future-facing tests, not the launch-required path.

Implementation checklist

An implementation should be able to:
  • issue and validate fresh challenges,
  • JCS-canonicalize challenge JSON,
  • verify Ed25519 signatures,
  • derive the DID from the public key,
  • consume nonces on success and failure,
  • issue bounded session tokens,
  • reject revoked or expired DIDs,
  • return stable error codes,
  • pass JSON vectors in Rust and TypeScript runners, and the canonical ACT vectors pass in all six language SDKs.
