Memory #97 CURRENT
Application Attestation Architecture Zero-trust boot, code integrity as PrIA entities, genesis anchor (embedded + human-readable), auto-remediation from peers Application attestation closes the trust chain gap (2026-03-29). **Key decisions:** - Every file IS a prime: P_file = next_prime(TCHAS-256(contents ‖ path)) - P_runtime = product of all P_file primes — the node's complete code fingerprint - Genesis anchor exists in TWO forms: 24-byte PIA protocol unit (embedded in constants.py) + JSON/QR (human-readable, out-of-band) - Both anchors verify each other; human-readable is the tiebreaker because mathematics is the ultimate authority - Zero-trust boot: Phase 0 (self-verify constants + primitives + anchor) → Phase 1 (cross-verify against human anchor) → Phase 2 (compute P_runtime) - Peer handshake gains: p_runtime + anchor_hash + constants_check - Auto-remediation: detect mismatch → query peers for clean files → verify → replace - Anchor timestamp = 0.0 (timeless — the anchor is a mathematical fact, not a temporal event) - 6 new supersession chain entry types for attestation lifecycle **Specs:** TTI.ARCH.ATTEST-001-v1.0 **Code:** pria_core.attestation (6 files, 81 tests), constants.py updated with get_anchor_primes() **Irreducible trust surface:** mathematics (𝔊₀, λ₁) + human reading the anchor file **Why:** Identity verification without code verification is incomplete. A valid identity running modified code is undetectable by the current trust chain. **How to apply:** Every new module must be included in P_runtime computation. The boot sequence runs BEFORE any network communication. — [project_application_attestation.md]
