Adds the third federation layer above consensus + threshold-auth: the collaborating set forms an MLS group (RFC 9420, via openmls) and derives a shared group key with NO central server, so collaboration traffic is end-to-end encrypted among members — the ownerless property. tests/mls_keying.rs demonstrates it with three members: Alice founds the group and adds Bob (both export the same group secret), then adds Carol (a new epoch; Carol derives the same shared secret). It also asserts a member an epoch behind derives a DIFFERENT secret — the forward-secret, epoch-bound property MLS gives. openmls is a dev-dependency, so the library's runtime deps stay light. So consensus (LockstepCluster, BFT), protected-op authorization (FROST t-of-n), and group keying (MLS) are all implemented and tested. The one remaining federation layer is the network transport (CommunicationOS/MoQT) — the wire between members. cargo test --workspace green; conformance pack still passes with no skips.

//! MLS group keying (RFC 9420) for a Joule Code collaboration cluster (SPEC §7).
|
|
//!
|
|
//! The cluster members form an MLS group and derive a **shared group key** with
|
|
//! no central server: every member exports the same secret, used to encrypt the
|
|
//! collaboration's traffic (coding operations / Smart Byte envelopes). Adding a
|
|
//! member advances the epoch; the new member, once welcomed, derives the same
|
|
//! secret. This is the group-keying layer that sits above the BFT consensus +
|
|
//! FROST threshold authorization in `joule-code-collab`.
|
|
//!
|
|
//! Built on `openmls` (the RFC 9420 reference implementation). This test
|
|
//! demonstrates the load-bearing property — agreement on a shared group key — so
|
|
//! the layer is verified, not asserted.
