| # ROWM Protocol v2.0 Migration Guide | |
| ## Overview | |
| This guide covers the migration from Receipt Protocol v1.0 to v2.0, implementing six critical security findings (SEC-001 through SEC-006) across the ROWM polymorphic notebook architecture. | |
| **Protocol v2.0** introduces: | |
| - **Deterministic canonical hashing** (SEC-001) | |
| - **Ed25519 detached signatures** (SEC-002) | |
| - **Replay protection with nonce+context+counter** (SEC-003) | |
| - **Notebook cell tamper detection** (SEC-004) | |
| - **Merkle tree chain linkage** (SEC-005) | |
| - **Proof obligation tracking** (SEC-006) | |
| ## Key Changes | |
| ### 1. Receipt Structure Evolution | |
| **v1.0 Receipt:** | |
| ```rust | |
| struct Receipt { | |
| receipt_id: String, | |
| agent_id: String, | |
| capability_id: String, | |
| status: ReceiptStatus, | |
| timestamp: u64, | |
| } | |
| ``` | |
| **v2.0 Receipt:** | |
| ```rust | |
| struct ReceiptV2 { | |
| sequence_number: u32, | |
| receipt_id: String, | |
| receipt_hash: String, // SHA-512 canonical hash | |
| agent_id: String, | |
| capability_id: String, | |
| instruction_hash: String, | |
| action: String, | |
| input_hash: String, | |
| output_hash: String, | |
| key_version: u32, // Ed25519 key version | |
| signature: String, // Ed25519 detached sig | |
| status: ReceiptStatus, | |
| nonce: String, // Replay protection | |
| context: String, // Replay context | |
| } | |
| ``` | |
| ### 2. Deterministic Canonical Hashing (SEC-001) | |
| **Changes:** | |
| - Receipts now hash deterministically using SHA-512 | |
| - Field order is canonical: `seq|agent|cap|hashes|action|counter|status` | |
| - Timestamps are **excluded** for reproducibility | |
| **Migration:** | |
| ```rust | |
| // v1.0: Hash was system timestamp-dependent | |
| let receipt_hash = compute_timestamp_hash(&receipt); | |
| // v2.0: Deterministic canonical form | |
| let canonical = format!( | |
| "seq:{}|agent:{}|cap:{}|instr:{}|action:{}|input:{}|output:{}|keyver:{}|sig:{}|status:{}", | |
| receipt.sequence_number, receipt.agent_id, receipt.capability_id, | |
| receipt.instruction_hash, receipt.action, receipt.input_hash, | |
| receipt.output_hash, receipt.key_version, receipt.signature, receipt.status | |
| ); | |
| let receipt_hash = blake3::hash(canonical.as_bytes()).to_hex().to_string(); | |
| ``` | |
| **Verification:** | |
| ```rust | |
| let computed_hash = blake3::hash(&canonical).to_hex().to_string(); | |
| assert_eq!(receipt.receipt_hash, computed_hash); | |
| ``` | |
| ### 3. Ed25519 Key Lifecycle Management (SEC-002) | |
| **Changes:** | |
| - All receipts now signed with Ed25519 | |
| - Keys versioned and rotated | |
| - Old keys tracked with revocation status | |
| **Key Generation:** | |
| ```rust | |
| let keypair = Ed25519KeyPair::generate(); | |
| let public_key = keypair.public_key_hex(); // 64 hex chars (32 bytes) | |
| let private_key = keypair.private_key_hex(); // 64 hex chars (32 bytes) | |
| ``` | |
| **Signature Creation:** | |
| ```rust | |
| let signature = keypair.sign(message); // 128 hex chars (64 bytes) | |
| ``` | |
| **Signature Verification:** | |
| ```rust | |
| let verified = Ed25519KeyPair::verify(&public_key, message, &signature)?; | |
| assert!(verified); | |
| ``` | |
| **Key Rotation:** | |
| ```rust | |
| let mut keystore = KeyStore::new(); | |
| let (v1, _) = keystore.generate_key("agent-id", now, now + 3600)?; | |
| let (v2, _) = keystore.rotate_key("agent-id", now + 1800, now + 5400)?; | |
| // v1 becomes revoked | |
| let old_key = keystore.get_key("agent-id", v1)?; | |
| assert_eq!(old_key.status, KeyStatus::Revoked); | |
| ``` | |
| ### 4. Replay Protection (SEC-003 & SEC-004) | |
| **Changes:** | |
| - Nonce + Context + Monotonic Counter tuple | |
| - Prevents identical receipt replay | |
| - Supports cross-context reuse (same nonce in different contexts) | |
| **Initialization:** | |
| ```rust | |
| let mut protection = GlobalReplayProtection::new(3600); // 1-hour window | |
| ``` | |
| **Recording Nonce:** | |
| ```rust | |
| // First receipt with nonce-001, context=global, counter=1 | |
| protection.check_and_record("global", "nonce-001", 1)?; | |
| // Next receipt in same context must have counter > 1 | |
| protection.check_and_record("global", "nonce-002", 2)?; | |
| // Duplicate nonce in same context fails | |
| assert!(protection.check_and_record("global", "nonce-001", 3).is_err()); | |
| // Same nonce in different context succeeds | |
| protection.check_and_record("dispatch", "nonce-001", 1)?; | |
| ``` | |
| **Replay Detection:** | |
| ```rust | |
| // Attempt to replay receipt with nonce-001/global | |
| if protection.check_and_record("global", "nonce-001", 2).is_err() { | |
| // REPLAY ATTACK DETECTED | |
| eprintln!("Replay attack detected: duplicate nonce in context"); | |
| } | |
| ``` | |
| ### 5. Notebook Cell Tamper Detection (SEC-005) | |
| **Changes:** | |
| - Each cell now includes parent hash | |
| - Merkle tree enforces sequential integrity | |
| - Cell modification detected immediately | |
| **Cell Creation:** | |
| ```rust | |
| let cell = NotebookCell::new( | |
| 0, // index | |
| "code", | |
| "x = 1", // source code | |
| Some(1), // execution count | |
| "", // output | |
| "{}", // metadata JSON | |
| 1000, // timestamp | |
| "0".repeat(128), // parent_hash (zeros for first cell) | |
| ); | |
| // Cell automatically hashes deterministically | |
| let cell_hash = cell.cell_hash.clone(); | |
| ``` | |
| **Tamper Detection:** | |
| ```rust | |
| let mut cell = cell.clone(); | |
| // Verify initial hash | |
| assert!(cell.verify_hash()); | |
| // Tamper with source | |
| cell.source = "x = 2".to_string(); | |
| // Hash verification fails | |
| assert!(!cell.verify_hash()); | |
| ``` | |
| **Merkle Chain:** | |
| ```rust | |
| let mut tree = NotebookMerkleTree::new(); | |
| let cell0 = NotebookCell::new(0, ..., "0".repeat(128)); | |
| tree.add_cell(cell0.clone())?; | |
| // Cell 1 must reference cell 0's hash | |
| let cell1 = NotebookCell::new(1, ..., cell0.cell_hash.clone()); | |
| tree.add_cell(cell1)?; | |
| // Tree verification ensures chain integrity | |
| assert!(tree.verify_integrity()); | |
| ``` | |
| ### 6. Proof Obligation Tracking (SEC-006) | |
| **Changes:** | |
| - 12 proof obligations mapped to 4 verifier tools | |
| - Status tracking (proved/disproved/assumed/error/timeout) | |
| - Release gate requires all discharged | |
| **Obligation Types:** | |
| 1. **Invariant Preservation** (verified by Z3 SMT solver) | |
| - inv-001: Receipt chain invariants | |
| - inv-002: Memory state invariants | |
| - inv-003: Authorization gates | |
| 2. **Semantic Preservation** (verified by Lean 4) | |
| - sem-001: SUBLEQ codegen correctness | |
| - sem-002: Unicode roundtrip preservation | |
| - sem-003: Polyglot compilation semantics | |
| 3. **Loop Invariant Maintenance** (verified by Ada/SPARK) | |
| - loop-001: Receipt append loop | |
| - loop-002: Cell iteration | |
| - loop-003: Nonce verification | |
| 4. **Receipt Chain Integrity** (verified by Agda) | |
| - chain-001: v2.0 chain validity | |
| - chain-002: Replay detection | |
| - chain-003: Merkle tree integrity | |
| **Querying Status (Prolog):** | |
| ```prolog | |
| ?- proof_obligation(OID, Type, Context). | |
| OID = 'inv-001', | |
| Type = 'invariant_preservation', | |
| Context = 'receipt_chain'. | |
| ?- all_obligations_discharged. | |
| true. | |
| ``` | |
| **Release Gate:** | |
| ```prolog | |
| release_ready_receipts :- | |
| % All receipts must be: | |
| % 1. Canonical (deterministic hash) | |
| forall(receipt_v2(...), verify_receipt_hash(...)), | |
| % 2. Signed with valid Ed25519 signatures | |
| forall(receipt_v2(...), verify_receipt_signature(...)), | |
| % 3. Chain integrity verified | |
| forall(receipt_chain_link(...), verify_chain_linkage(...)), | |
| % 4. No replay attacks | |
| \+ (nonce_record(...), nonce_record(...), Counter1 \= Counter2). | |
| ``` | |
| ## Backward Compatibility | |
| ### Supported Scenarios | |
| β **v1.0 receipts can coexist with v2.0 in migration period** | |
| - Separate tables: `receipt` (v1) and `receipt_v2` (v2) | |
| - Runtime checks detect protocol version | |
| - Gradual rollover supported | |
| ### Unsupported Scenarios | |
| β **Mixing v1.0 and v2.0 signatures** | |
| - v2.0 requires all signatures to be Ed25519 | |
| - v1.0 signatures cannot be validated by v2.0 gate | |
| β **Replay protection across versions** | |
| - v1.0 has no nonce tracking | |
| - v2.0 nonce table is separate | |

| ## Rollback Plan | |
| If v2.0 deployment fails: | |
| 1. **Immediate:** Stop accepting v2.0 receipts | |
| 2. **Verification:** Compare receipt counts (v1 vs v2) | |
| 3. **Decision:** If v1 > 90%, rollback safe | |
| 4. **Execution:** Restore v1.0 signing, keep v2.0 tables for audit | |
| 5. **Investigation:** Post-incident review of failures | |
| ## Support and Troubleshooting | |
| ### FAQ | |
| **Q: Can I upgrade incrementally?** | |
| A: Yes. v1.0 and v2.0 can coexist during migration. Set phase gates: | |
| ```rust | |
| if protocol_version == 2 { | |
| use_v2_verification() | |
| } else { | |
| use_v1_verification() | |
| } | |
| ``` | |
| **Q: What if a receipt fails v2.0 verification?** | |
| A: Check in order: | |
| 1. Signature verification (Ed25519 key exists?) | |
| 2. Canonical form (field order correct?) | |
| 3. Replay protection (nonce duplicate?) | |
| 4. Chain linkage (parent hash matches?) | |
| **Q: How do I handle key rotation?** | |
| A: Old signatures remain valid until key expiry. Use `get_key(agent, version)` to verify against specific key version. | |
| **Q: What about cross-context replay?** | |
| A: Same nonce is allowed in different contexts (e.g., "global" vs "dispatch"). The protection enforces `(nonce, context)` uniqueness, not nonce alone. | |
