//! Shadow keypair management — deterministic internal keys derived from external pubkeys. //! //! HMAC-SHA256(key=server_salt, msg=external_pubkey_bytes) → secp256k1 secret key. Cached in DashMap. //! A server-side salt is required to prevent offline derivation by anyone who knows only //! the external public key. //! //! **Key derivation note**: This uses HMAC-SHA256 (not raw SHA-256) for proper domain //! separation and resistance to length-extension attacks. If the derivation scheme is //! ever changed, all existing shadow keys will differ — acceptable for MVP (no persistent //! state), but must be coordinated with a migration for production deployments. //! //! # Cache size limit //! //! The in-memory cache is bounded to `MAX_CACHE_SIZE` entries. When the limit //! is reached the entire cache is cleared before inserting the new entry. This //! is a simple "flush on full" strategy: it trades a brief cold-cache period //! for zero dependency on an external LRU crate. Because shadow keys are //! deterministically re-derivable from the salt and the public key, eviction //! is always safe — the next lookup simply re-derives and re-caches the key. use std::sync::atomic::{AtomicUsize, Ordering}; use dashmap::DashMap; use hex; use hmac::{Hmac, KeyInit, Mac}; use nostr::{Keys, SecretKey}; use sha2::Sha256; use crate::error::ProxyError; type HmacSha256 = Hmac; /// Maximum number of shadow keys held in the in-memory cache at one time. /// Exceeding this limit triggers a full cache flush before the new entry is /// inserted, bounding worst-case memory use to roughly /// `MAX_CACHE_SIZE × ~200 bytes` ≈ 2 MB at the default. pub const MAX_CACHE_SIZE: usize = 10_000; /// Manages deterministic shadow keypairs derived from external Nostr public keys. pub struct ShadowKeyManager { salt: Vec, cache: DashMap, /// Approximate entry count.
