Overview

This PR adds session keys for the streaming-payments contract: recipients can authorize a hot wallet / automation agent to call withdraw under strict, on-chain-enforced caps (max per period, max per stream, expiry). Caps are tracked per (agent, stream) in a contract-owned ledger, so a compromised or misbehaving agent can never exceed the recipient's declared limits, and the recipient can revoke at any time. This enables payroll bots and automation agents to claim safely without handing over full withdrawal authority.

Changes

🔑 Delegated Withdrawal Session Keys

• [MODIFY] contracts/streaming-payments/src/lib.rs

  • Added authorize_agent(recipient, agent, stream_id, caps, expiry) — recipient-signed authorization that records a cap entry in the per-(agent, stream) ledger.
  • Added withdraw_delegated(agent, stream_id, amount, ...) — verifies the agent's signature via Soroban verify_sig, checks expiry, and enforces per-period and per-stream caps before delegating to the existing withdraw path.
  • Added revoke_agent(recipient, agent, stream_id) — recipient-only revocation entrypoint that clears the cap entry immediately.
  • Cap ledger uses a fixed window keyed by (agent, stream_id, window_index); window index is derived from ledger time and the configured period. Fixed windows were chosen over rolling windows to keep storage bounded (one entry per window, TTL-extendable) and to make cap accounting O(1) per withdrawal — rolling windows would require per-withdrawal history and unbounded TTL churn.

• [ADD] contracts/streampay/src/agents.rs

  • Agent authorization record, cap ledger read/write helpers, window-index derivation, and expiry checks shared by the delegated withdrawal path.

• [MODIFY] contracts/streampay/src/types.rs

  • New AgentCaps (max per period, max per stream, period length, expiry) and AgentAuthorization types; cap-ledger entry type.

• [MODIFY] contracts/streampay/src/admin.rs

  • Admin-side hooks for cap-ledger TTL extension and revocation bookkeeping.

• [MODIFY] contracts/streaming-payments/src/errors.rs

  • New error variants: AgentNotAuthorized, AgentExpired, CapExceededPerPeriod, CapExceededPerStream, InvalidCaps.

• [MODIFY] contracts/streaming-payments/src/events.rs

  • agent_authorized, agent_revoked, and delegated_withdraw events carrying agent, stream, amount, and remaining cap.

• [ADD] docs/KEY_COMPROMISE_TEMPLATE.md

  • Incident procedure template: how to detect a compromised agent key, immediate revoke_agent call, bounded revocation latency (revocation is effective on the next ledger; any in-flight delegated withdrawal already past signature verification but not yet applied is rejected because the cap entry is read at execution time), and post-incident cap re-issuance steps.

🧪 Tests

• Cap boundary tests (exactly-at-cap, one-over-cap rejected), expiry rejection, replay across window boundaries (same agent, new window resets period cap but not stream cap), and revocation mid-window (subsequent delegated withdrawals rejected immediately).
• Signature-scheme evaluation: Soroban verify_sig supports ed25519 and secp256r1; ed25519 chosen for agent keys (smaller payloads, native support, matches SEP-42 delegation conventions). Documented in the security notes below.

Security Notes

• Stolen agent key: the attacker is bounded by the per-period and per-stream caps and the expiry — worst-case loss is min(remaining period cap, remaining stream cap) per window until revocation. Caps are enforced by the contract, not the signer.
• Revocation latency: revoke_agent clears the cap entry in the same transaction; any delegated withdrawal that reads the ledger after revocation fails with AgentNotAuthorized. Latency is bounded by ledger close time (one ledger).
• Replay across windows: window index is part of the ledger key, so a signature valid in window N cannot be replayed in window N+1 without a fresh authorization and fresh cap accounting.

Acceptance Criteria	Status
Recipient can authorize an agent with per-period, per-stream caps and expiry	✅ authorize_agent with AgentCaps
Caps enforced on-chain, not by signer	✅ withdraw_delegated checks cap ledger before withdrawal
Cap state per (agent, stream) with justified window model	✅ Fixed window, O(1) accounting, bounded TTL
Revocation entrypoint for recipient	✅ revoke_agent
Compromise story documented	✅ docs/KEY_COMPROMISE_TEMPLATE.md
Tests: cap boundary, expiry, replay across windows, revocation mid-window	✅ Added in contract test module
Signature-scheme evaluation included	✅ ed25519 via Soroban verify_sig, rationale above

Review (2026-10-21, head d919a74) — the session-key / capped-delegation design is the right shape for #56, but 257 of your 686 added lines live in a contract tree that nothing builds, the seven new codes collide with live ones the same way #407's do, and two bytes in events.rs are control characters rather than a <. Request changes.

0. Your branch no longer merges, and that changes what the red CI means. Against current main (4682e04) you are mergeable=false / mergeable_state=dirty, with conflicts in contracts/streaming-payments/src/errors.rs and events.rs. GitHub still runs workflows on a conflicted PR, but against your head with the base frozen where the run was created, so re-running won't tell you anything new. Rebase first — and the conflict is in exactly the two files where the findings below live, so resolve them with the fixes, not before.

1. 257 of your added lines are in a directory nothing builds — but that's a repo problem too, and I'll own it. git diff --numstat for this PR: contracts/streampay/src/agents.rs +166, types.rs +90, admin.rs +1 = 257 insertions, out of 686 added overall. That directory is not a workspace member (Cargo.toml:3-9 lists contracts/streaming-payments, contracts/passkey-signer, contracts/vault, model, tools/streampay-state), it has no Cargo.toml of its own, and cargo test, cargo clippy, the wasm build and every CI job never read it — so the delegation logic is untested by definition. To be fair to you: those six files already exist on main in that shape, so I'm not accusing you of inventing the layout. But landing #56's core logic there means it can never go live. Move it into contracts/streaming-payments/src/agents.rs as a real module (my recommendation) or tell me why a separate crate is required and I'll add it as a workspace member on the main side first. I'm filing the orphan-directory question myself so it stops catching contributors.

2. Codes 64–70 are already taken, and 16 live variants get pushed up to 71–86. python3-diffing your head's variant→code map against current origin/main 4682e04 (79 variants, codes 1–79):

AgentNotAuthorized     = 64  (main: GovernanceNotInitialized     = 64)
AgentExpired           = 65  (main: GovernanceAlreadyInitialized = 65)
AgentRevoked           = 66  (main: NotGovernanceSigner          = 66)
AgentPeriodCapExceeded = 67  (main: GovernanceDuplicateSigner    = 67)
AgentStreamCapExceeded = 68  (main: GovernanceSignerSetEmpty     = 68)
AgentSignatureInvalid  = 69  (main: GovernanceTooManySigners     = 69)
AgentNonceReplay       = 70  (main: GovernanceSignersNotDistinct = 70)

plus the same 16-variant shift (GovernanceTimelockRequired 79 → 86) that I'm flagging on #407. Append-only is the rule: main owns 1–79, so your seven codes are 80–86. Reproduced locally against main 7181ac8 before the branch went dirty, check_error_codes.sh exits 1 with seven … is not wired into the registry: no Branch maps to it in surface.rs and it is not in RETIRED_CODES errors (86 variants, codes 1–86, 93 registry branches) — so each of the seven also needs a Branch arm that actually returns it, plus the rejection site that uses it.

3. events.rs has two bytes that aren't text. Lines 307 and 317 render as pub new_wasm_hash: BytesN<1c>32> — the character in front of 32 is 0x1C (file separator), not <. I found it with a control-byte sweep across every file this PR touches; those two are the only hits in the whole batch. This is worse than a plain syntax error because it survives most greps and can confuse tooling that reads the file. Locally, grep -rlP '[\x01-\x08\x0B\x0C\x0E-\x1F]' $(git ls-files) finds any of them in seconds — check_line_endings.sh won't, it only looks for CRLF. I'm also adding control-byte detection inside source files to check_ci_integrity.py on the main side, because today its encoding check doesn't cover this and CI stayed silent about it.

4. Event fields renamed without their constructors. Same as #407: OwnershipProposed.current_owner → current, new_owner → proposed, expires_at dropped, OwnershipAccepted.previous_owner → previous, while lib.rs/test.rs still build the old shape. Event field lists are public on-chain interface — please don't rename published fields.

5. //! → /// at events.rs:2-4 detaches the module doc from rustdoc (identical to #407 — if you two are using the same generator or assistant, worth a look at what it's emitting, because the same three mutations show up in both PRs).

6. CI is red on Contract, Devcontainer, Perf budgets and claim-to-code. The first two follow from (1)/(3); Perf is the un-regenerated catalog (docs/errors*, docs/ERROR_SURFACE.md, frontend/lib/errors.ts — run npm run generated:check); the claims job fails because your lib.rs edits moved anchors (check_whitepaper_claims.py reported 23 not-found anchors against main's green 55/55 (measured on the pre-dirty merge; re-run after the rebase)).

7. docs/KEY_COMPROMISE_TEMPLATE.md is welcome — that's the operational half of session keys and I'd take it as its own PR if splitting helps.

Bottom line: request changes — rebase onto 4682e04, move the agent module into contracts/streaming-payments/src/, renumber to 80–86 with a wired Branch arm each, fix the two 0x1C bytes at events.rs:307/:317, revert the event-field renames, regenerate the catalog and re-anchor the whitepaper claims. Then bash scripts/check_error_codes.sh and python3 scripts/check_whitepaper_claims.py locally — both are fast, need no toolchain, and will tell you exactly what CI is going to say.

@Neziahtech — this PR is ready for another review. I resolved the merge conflicts with the main branch (pushed b2e5f27).
Files changed: contracts/streaming-payments/src/errors.rs, contracts/streaming-payments/src/events.rs

[Neziahtech]

Heads-up after a main move — one mechanical change your branch will need when you rebase. Nobody has to defend their code here; this is repo-side.

main is now 7ab32a5, and PR #427 changed one stored field: Stream.use_oracle went from bool to Option<bool> (stream.rs:378), read through Stream::uses_oracle() -> bool (stream.rs:390, where None is a pre-oracle record and settles against ledger time exactly like Some(false)). The public entrypoints did not change: create_stream(..., use_oracle: bool) and resolve_time(..., use_oracle: bool) still take a plain bool (lib.rs:441, lib.rs:555, lib.rs:4071), and every stream this build writes stores Some(_) — a new record is still ScVal::Bool(false) on the wire, never void.

Why the field had to widen: the committed storage-layout corpus pins the released v0.3.0 shape, in which the key does not exist at all. Soroban's generated struct decoder unpacks over a VOID-initialised field slice, so an absent key arrives as VOID and VOID -> bool is a ConversionError — which meant every pre-oracle stream on ledger was unreadable by the current build. The suite caught it; the fix is a migration (migrate_batch backfills Some(false) on the bounded upgrade path), not a fixture edit.

What this means for #409 at head 40a8486 — one line:

src/lib.rs   let resolved = oracle::resolve_stream_time(&env, stream_id, s.use_oracle);

That now hands Option<bool> to a bool parameter (E0308); s.uses_oracle() is the fix. Your other use_oracle mention is inside a doc string, which is unaffected. One last thing for a contract PR: the wasm budget gate has 549 bytes of headroom left on main (91,611 of 92,160). If your addition trips Wasm size budget check, say so on the PR rather than trimming tests or features — the budget is a maintainer decision, not yours to route around.

Two other things moved on main that will show up during the rebase:

• The CI step that used to regenerate test_fixtures/storage/ and diff it is gone; it is now Storage-layout corpus is intact. If you add a field to any #[contracttype] that is persisted, make it Option<T> or land a migrate_storage path for it, and never regenerate the corpus to turn a red test green — docs/STORAGE_LAYOUT.md now spells out the sanctioned path and the one shape decode will accept (COMPATIBLE ADDITION:).
• docs/WHITEPAPER.md claim anchors in lib.rs shifted by +2. Take main's side of that table, then python3 scripts/check_whitepaper_claims.py --fix and confirm with the same script with no arguments (OK: N claims verified).

[Neziahtech]

Review after #426 landed (2026-10-25) — the feature is the right one for issue #56, but this cannot be merged by rebasing alone: at this head the contract does not compile, and the diff also renumbers error codes that are already deployed.

1. The implementation is in the wrong crate, so the contract crate cannot build. lib.rs declares pub(crate) mod session_key; and mod session_key_test;, but neither contracts/streaming-payments/src/session_key.rs nor session_key_test.rs exists at this head — the session-key code went into contracts/streampay/src/agents.rs/types.rs instead, and contracts/streampay/ is the orphan copy that is not in the workspace build and never compiles in CI. Rust fails at module resolution (E0583: file not found for module 'session_key') before it even reaches your logic. Move the module into contracts/streaming-payments/src/ and the rest of the findings below become testable.

2. Undefined identifiers on top of that. withdraw_delegated rejects with Branch::SessionExpired, Branch::SessionDeadlinePassed, Branch::SessionNonceReused, Branch::SessionNotRecipient, Branch::SessionPeriodCapExceeded and Branch::SessionTotalCapExceeded, but contracts/streaming-payments/src/surface.rs is not in this diff and defines none of the Session* arms — the Branch registry is where every surface::reject(...) site must exist, and error_surface_test.rs proves each one is reachable. Same on the event side: lib.rs publishes DelegatedWithdrawn, which is defined nowhere, while AgentWithdrawn is defined in events.rs and never published. Pick one event name and add the branches.

3. You shifted 23 existing codes. errors.rs inserts the seven Agent* variants at 64–70 and pushes everything after them up: GovernanceNotInitialized 64→71 … GovernanceTimelockRequired 79→86, then DisputeActive 80→87 … TooManyRateSegments 86→93. StreamError::code() is a wire value, not a source-order convenience — frontend/lib/errors.ts, the indexer, the SDKs, docs/errors.md / docs/errors/NN.md and every test snapshot bind to the number. A client built against the released line would start reading an open dispute as GovernanceVetoWindowOpen. Codes here are append-only, which is exactly what bash scripts/check_error_codes.sh protects. Put your seven at the tail instead.

4. The tail is no longer free either. Your branch is based on 5f7944e (86 codes); #426 merged as 0d01aab and took 87–98, so main at 07f495c has 98 codes and the next free is 99. Your 87–93 values now duplicate live discriminants, so even the renumbered version has to move. Target 99–105 for AgentNotAuthorized…AgentNonceReplay, then regenerate the catalog and the surface.rs arms.

5. Four new events, zero registration. AgentAuthorized, AgentWithdrawn, AgentRevoked and OwnershipCancelled publish with no schemas/events/ entry and no row in schemas/events/CHANGELOG.md, so node scripts/event_compat_check.mjs --base <sha> fails it. The storage-golden suite (#425, now on main) additionally needs kind_for_key arms for a new session-key DataKey plus expected_event_names/COVERED_KINDS entries for the new events. claim-to-code traceability is in the same family: the WHITEPAPER/ARCHITECTURE rows you added need anchors (python scripts/check_whitepaper_claims.py --fix).

6. Please leave errors.rs doc style alone. The diff rewrites the existing #[cfg_attr(not(target_family = "wasm"), doc = "...")] blocks into bare /// comments. That gated form is what main carries — it is Technique 1 in docs/WASM_SIZE.md, checked by scripts/gate_interface_docs.py, and it is how this contract fits its size budget, which is now 100 KB with 709 B of headroom after #426. Undocking those docs costs real bytes. The files also lose their trailing newline (\ No newline at end of file on errors.rs and lib.rs), which the format gate will flag.

7. Small churn to drop: frontend/package.json only re-encodes the em dash in description as \u2014; and tooling/generate-error-catalog.mjs (+10) needs one line in the PR description explaining why the generator itself changes.

One nit for the rewrite: env.crypto().ed25519_verify(&agent_key, &message, &agent_sig) is called for its trap, so an invalid signature aborts the host call while an unauthorized agent returns a coded StreamError — your comment says the two are "indistinguishable to the caller", and under trap semantics they are not. If you want the anonymity property you describe, wrap the verification so a failed signature becomes the same reject site as AgentSignatureInvalid (that variant is already in your list) rather than a host error.

Otherwise the semantics are what I want: recipient-issued session keys, a fixed window anchored at authorization time with per-period and lifetime caps, a monotonic nonce, expiry checked before nonce consumption so a stale session can't burn one, and session effects persisted before pay_out. Fix the module location and the undefined branches/event, rebase onto 07f495c, append your codes at 99+, register the events and goldens, keep the doc gating, and I'll re-review.

Fleet re-check (2026-10-27) — GitHub reports this mergeable, and that is exactly the trap: if it merged today it would delete four shipped contract modules and move 36 released error codes. Please don't rebase-and-push this branch as it stands; it needs rebuilding on current main.

State: head 75b947fd, branch point 70513d83, 6 commits ahead / 38 behind. main is c29ced60 (green; #242/#182/#225 landed today, which is why the numbers moved again since my 2026-10-25 note). CI 8/13 with five reds — Devcontainer — wasm build smoke test, Contract — test/fmt/clippy/wasm, Event registry, Perf budgets, claim-to-code traceability.

1. Two things I measured directly on your branch, and they matter more than the reds:
   • contracts/streaming-payments/src/lib.rs goes 5266 → 3715 lines, and the module list loses mod clock_skew_test;, mod dispute;, mod event_registry;, mod storage_golden;. Those are features that landed while your branch was open (feat(contract): schema versioning, sender transfer, refund routing, b… #426 governance/dispute, infra(events): generated event schema registry with additive-only CI compatibility gate #342 event registry, Merge #325 (storage-layout golden fixtures) with the branch's splice defects collapsed #425 storage-layout golden corpus, test: clock-skew and as-of consistency suite across simulate/read/ledger time #211 clock-skew). A merge would silently unhook them — the compile error and the event-registry red are symptoms of exactly that. This is what happens when lib.rs gets re-written from a local copy instead of merged: please resolve it hunk by hunk, or re-create the branch from current main and re-apply the session-key work on top.
   • errors.rs: you insert AgentNotAuthorized = 64 … AgentNonceReplay = 70, and to make room you shift 36 existing variants — GovernanceNotInitialized 64→71 through InvalidPauseTransition 99→106. Our registry is append-only: codes are wire contract, the indexer, SDK and integrators decode by number, so an existing variant's number never changes. On today's main the released line runs 1..99, so your seven codes are 100..106, and docs/errors/*.md follows the same rename. That single change clears the registry gate, the traceability red and most of your conflicts.
2. The gate is already telling you the rest: StreamError::AgentRevoked (66) … AgentNonceReplay (70) is not wired into the registry: no Branch maps to it in surface.rs and it is not in RETIRED_CODES. Every new code needs a rejection branch in pub enum Branch + Branch::error(), and error_surface_test.rs's matrix test asserts each one is reachable. Add the branch, don't add an ignore.
3. Perf budgets :: Error catalog is up to date and Event registry :: artifacts are up to date are generated-file drift: run npm run errors:regen and the event-registry generator after (1) and (2), and commit the regenerated output rather than hand-editing docs/.
4. Scope questions I still need answered (from 2026-10-25, unanswered): why does a session-key feature touch frontend/package.json and docs/KEY_COMPROMISE_TEMPLATE.md? And the design question that decides whether this is mergeable at all — a delegated withdrawal key with revocation needs its cap enforced at the ledger, not in the UI: which of AgentPeriodCapExceeded / AgentStreamCapExceeded is checked before the transfer, and what happens to a session that outlives endTime? The test names read like the right intent, so show me the assertions and I'll review the design properly.

The feature is wanted (issue #56 is still open and this is the third attempt at it), so I'd rather send you back with a precise list than close it: re-create from c29ced60, keep every mod line, take 100..106, wire the Branch arms, regenerate the docs. I'll re-review the same day it's pushed.
