## Description
Verify signed AIFeed permissions, fetch token-budgeted markdown, and verify assets for AI agents.

## Claude Desktop Quick Installation
Heuristic fallback — verify the package name and runner against the repository README before running it. Uses `npx` (confidence: low):

```json
"mcpServers": {
  "aifeed": {
    "command": "npx",
    "args": ["-y","aifeed"]
  }
}
```

## 1-Minute Quickstart

**Publisher side — sign what agents may do with your content:**

```bash
npx aifeed keygen --out .aifeed                         # Ed25519 key pair
npx aifeed site build ./public --domain example.com \
  --key .aifeed/aifeed-private.pem --llms --inject      # manifest + page markdown + index
npx aifeed validate ./public --domain example.com       # verify locally
```

Prefer zero config? `npx aifeed init --domain example.com --dir ./site` creates the keys,
a signed manifest, and the DNS/host setup guide in one step.

**Agent side — verify any domain in 3 lines:**

```bash
npm install @aifeed/verify
```

```js
const { verifyRemote } = require('@aifeed/verify');
const out = await verifyRemote('example.com'); // discovery → signature → DNS anchor
console.log(out.result, out.anchor.status);    // VERIFIED anchored
```

TypeScript: `import { verifyRemote } from '@aifeed/verify';`

## Why AIFeed?

AI agents now drive a large and growing share of web traffic, but the signals that say
what they may do are **unsigned text files**. Anyone can edit them, nothing binds them to
a domain, and there is no way to revoke them. The asymmetry is measurable:

- **1.9 billion** crawls ignored `robots.txt` rules in a single half-year (one vendor).
- A **70,900 : 1** crawl-to-referral ratio was measured for a major AI provider.
- AI bots averaged **4.2 %** of HTML requests in 2025, peaking at 6.4 %.

AIFeed replaces "please respect this file" with a cryptographically verifiable
declaration, plus lean agent-ready content that cuts cost on **both** sides.

## How it works

1. **Generate an Ed25519 key pair** — the private key never leaves the origin.
2. **Publish a signed manifest** at `/.well-known/ai.json`: per-use permissions
   (training, retrieval, quote, …), crawl limits, license, revision.
3. **Anchor the key in DNS** (`_aifeed` TXT) so a manifest cannot be spoofed by another
   domain.
4. **Agents verify the chain** — TLS → domain → signature (JCS + Ed25519) → DNS anchor —
   and re-check a **multi-signature revocation registry** on every use.
5. **Rotate keys safely** — announce the successor with an old-key-signed directive (plus
   an advisory DNS `pk2` cross-check), keep a bounded overlap, cut over, then revoke the
   old key permanently. Runbook: [`docs/rotation.md`](https://github.com/denyn1/aifeed-protocol/blob/HEAD/docs/rotation.md).
6. **Serve lean content** under one of two profiles (below), with a signed **delta index**
   so unchanged pages cost 0 bytes.

**For AI agents:** the check-first guide (discovery → verification → permission
decisions → delta → failure handling) is in
[`docs/agent-quickstart.md`](https://github.com/denyn1/aifeed-protocol/blob/HEAD/docs/agent-quickstart.md),
with a runnable example at
[`examples/agent/compliant-agent.js`](https://github.com/denyn1/aifeed-protocol/blob/HEAD/examples/agent/compliant-agent.js).

## Verify from other stacks

Independent Python package (standard library only):

```bash
pip install aifeed
```

```python
from aifeed import verify

report = verify.verify_directory('./my-site', domain='example.com')
print(report['result'], report['errors'])
```

Prefer the repository? The same CLI is here (zero dependencies, Node ≥ 20):

```bash
cd aifeed-protocol
node bin/cli.js keygen --out keys/
node bin/cli.js validate https://example.com
node bin/cli.js site build ./public --domain example.com --key keys/aifeed-private.pem
```

## Two content profiles

| Profile | Media type | Extension | Notes |
|---|---|---|---|
| **AIFeed Markdown** (native) | `text/aifeed+markdown` | `.aifeed.md` | In-band signed policy block, token budget, translation `alternates`, triage metadata |
| **MAKO** (compatibility) | `text/mako+markdown` | `.mako.md` | External MAKO trust profile, served from the same signed bytes with its own signature context |

Dual-stack origins serve both; cross-format replay is rejected by design.

## Measured results

All numbers are reproducible from committed artifacts (`npm run bench:mako`,
`npm run bench:enforcement`); the test environment is a single machine on loopback
networking with a synthetic 60-page corpus. Honest baseline included.

| What | Result | Label |
|---|---|---|
| Conversion to markdown profiles vs HTML | **−68.83 %** transferred bytes | measured |
| Delta consumption (10 % pages changed) | **−95.73 %** vs HTML crawl | measured |
| Publisher egress bytes / CPU / peak connections | **−55.19 % / −56.23 % / −88.24 %** | measured (simulation) |
| AI-side received bytes (all profiles / compliant client) | **−54.84 % / −72.93 %** | measured (simulation) |
| Unchanged pages skipped | 14 of 18 | measured (simulation) |
| Signature verification cost | **0.70 ms / page** | measured |

The 30-day live pilot has **not** run yet; projections per 1,000 tenants are labeled as
model extrapolations, and vendor claims of up to 94 % token reduction require semantic
summarization this project does not perform automatically.
