Project Status

Pre-release

Stroma is an early, independently installable protocol component. It is not yet the active Nostr implementation inside Safebox Acorn.

Implemented

• key generation and NIP-19 key conversion;
• canonical NIP-01 events and BIP-340 signatures;
• NIP-19 TLV entities;
• NIP-44 version 2 and extended-length prefixes;
• NIP-59 wrapping with explicit timestamp and rumour-kind policies;
• NIP-40 expiration tags;
• relay publish acknowledgements and EOSE queries;
• relay-pool quorum and deduplication behavior;
• stable protocol error types.

Verified

• official NIP-44 example vector;
• official 65,535, 65,536, and 65,537-byte payload hashes;
• two-way NIP-44 compatibility with Acorn's current dependency below its legacy length limit;
• signed-event validation and tamper rejection;
• NIP-59 round trips and wrong-recipient rejection;
• local WebSocket relay publishing and querying;
• package metadata, source distribution, and wheel builds.

Next

1. Add captured Acorn event interoperability fixtures.
2. Add live third-party relay tests without making them part of the default unit suite.
3. Harden malformed relay-frame and timeout behavior.
4. Introduce Stroma into Acorn behind a migration adapter.
5. Complete the Acorn live-test gate before removing monstr.
