Documentation

A remote attestation proof: a standalone record in the attestor's repository that binds, via a canonical attestation CID, to a subject record living elsewhere. Referenced from the subject's `signatures` array via com.atproto.repo.strongRef. The `cid` is computed from the subject record (signatures stripped) with this record's metadata (cid/signature/signatures stripped, `repository` = subject's repo DID added) inserted as $sig, DAG-CBOR + SHA-256 + CIDv1. Verifiers recompute that CID and require it to match; copying the subject to another repository changes the CID and invalidates the proof. The shared network.attested.* replacement for app-specific remote-attestation records.

Record Key tid Timestamp-based ID

Properties

cid string cid Required

Canonical attestation CID computed over the subject record, this record's metadata, and the subject's repository DID.

createdAt string datetime Required

An RFC 3339 formatted timestamp.

issuer string did Optional

DID of the attesting party (e.g. the did:web of the service that minted this proof).

role string Optional

The role this proof attests in a workflow (e.g. 'proof-of-settlement', 'broker', 'verification'), so verifiers can require specific attestation completeness.

status string Optional

Optional status of the attested subject (e.g. 'valid', 'revoked').

subject ref com.atproto.repo.strongRef Required

Strong reference to the record being attested, so verifiers can fetch it and recompute the attestation CID.
