AeonProof Code

Proof of anteriority and integrity for source code. Register a signed, timestamped proof that your code existed — without your code ever leaving your machine.

Built on AeonProof / AeonScript. Not a patent, not legal advice — independent technical evidence: Merkle tree + Ed25519 + server timestamp + Bitcoin anchoring (OpenTimestamps) + yearly DNA archival.

Quick start

npx aeonproof-cli keygen --name "Your Name" --email you@example.com
npx aeonproof-cli prove ./your-project          # hashes locally, registers the fingerprint
npx aeonproof-cli verify proof.json ./your-project   # ✅ 🟡 🔴 ⚪

The generated aeonproof-*.json record is self-contained: anyone can verify it offline (--offline) or at /verify.html, 100% in the browser.

Repository layout

cli/        aeonproof-cli (npm) — zero-dependency Node ≥18 (keygen | prove | verify | id)
api/        Vercel serverless — register, proof lookup, Stripe checkout + webhook
public/     landing, verify page, dashboard
supabase/   schema.sql — tables, RLS, server-side quotas
action/     GitHub Action (certify every release)
n8n/        daily Merkle batch anchoring workflow

How a proof works

1. prove walks the directory (honoring .aeonproofignore), hashes every file (SHA-256), builds a Merkle tree — leaf = sha256("leaf\0<path>\0<filehash>"), node = sha256("node\0<l>\0<r>"), odd node promoted.
2. Canonical payload AEONPROOF-CODE-v0.1\n<root>\n<created_at>\n<pubkey_x>\n<file_count> is signed with your Ed25519 key.
3. Only paths + hashes + signature are sent to the registry (server timestamp is authoritative; ±48h client drift tolerated).
4. A daily batch Merkle root aggregates all proofs (n8n) — anchored via OpenTimestamps; yearly roots go into a DNA capsule.

Verdicts

	Verdict	Meaning
✅	Original verified	Bit-for-bit identical tree
🟡	Same content, reorganized	Identical files, moved/renamed
🔴	Content altered	Derived but modified
⚪	Not registered	No overlap
