NIPs Used in This App

This list is based on the current app code, especially src/stores/nostrStore.ts, the profile/relay UI components, and the local group-chat draft docs in this repo.

NIP-01

  • Used for standard Nostr events and profile metadata.
  • The app publishes and reads kind:0 metadata for users and group identities, and it relies on normal event signing and signature verification when handling custom group tickets.

NIP-05

  • Used to resolve name@domain identifiers into pubkeys.
  • The app accepts NIP-05 identifiers when adding contacts or group members, and stores the resolved nip05 value in contact metadata.

NIP-07

  • Used for browser-extension login/signing.
  • The app can log in through a NIP-07 extension via NDKNip07Signer and checks that the extension account matches the active session.

NIP-11

  • Used to inspect relay metadata.
  • The relay settings/profile UI loads relay info with fetchInfo() and shows the returned NIP-11 details.

NIP-17

  • This is the app's main private-message transport.
  • It sends and receives kind:14 private message rumors inside gift wraps, and it also uses the same DM flow for wrapped reactions (kind:7) and deletions (kind:5).
  • Group chat messages are also sent as NIP-17 DMs to the group's current epoch public key.

NIP-19

  • Used for bech32 Nostr identifiers.
  • The app decodes nsec and npub inputs, and it encodes npub and nprofile values for stored/displayed contact identifiers.

NIP-24

  • Used for extra profile metadata fields on kind:0 profiles.
  • The profile editor reads and writes fields such as display_name, website, banner, and booleans like bot.
  • The code also uses a group boolean on profiles; that part looks app-specific/draft-oriented rather than clearly standard.

NIP-44

  • Used for encryption throughout the app.
  • It is used by the DM/gift-wrap pipeline, and also to self-encrypt private preferences, group identity secrets, per-contact cursor data, and the private contact-list payload.

NIP-46

  • Used for Nostr remote signing login.
  • The app acts as a NIP-46 client and supports bunker:// connection tokens and generated nostrconnect:// pairing links.
  • The NIP-46 local client key is persisted as a session token so refresh and app restart can restore the remote signer connection without storing the user's nsec.
  • The app requests broad sign_event, nip44_encrypt, and nip44_decrypt permissions because private messaging, private app storage, profile updates, relay lists, and relay auth all need the active signer.

NIP-51

  • Used for private follow-set style lists.
  • The app publishes a group-authored kind:30000 follow set with ["d", "members"] when a group is created and whenever the owner changes the effective group membership set.
  • Group member pubkeys are stored only as NIP-44-encrypted private p items in content, and the latest event is used to restore the owner-side group_members snapshot for that group.

NIP-59

  • Used for gift wrapping.
  • The app sends/receives kind:1059 gift wraps and kind:13 seals for private messaging.
  • It also gift-wraps signed kind:1014 group epoch tickets before sending them to members.

NIP-65

  • Used for relay list metadata.
  • The app publishes, restores, and subscribes to relay lists using kind:10002.
  • It uses those relay lists for the logged-in user, contacts, and groups when deciding where to read from or publish to.

NIP-78

  • Used for app-specific private storage on Nostr.
  • The app uses kind:30078 replaceable events for private preferences, group identity secrets, and per-contact cursor state.
  • Those payloads are encrypted with NIP-44 before publication.

NIP-98

  • Used for HTTP authentication when registering Android push notification devices with the push gateway.
  • The app signs kind:27235 events that bind the request URL, method, and body hash to the logged-in pubkey.

NIP-171

  • This appears to be a repo-local draft/private-group scheme layered on top of NIP-17.
  • The app implements kind:1014 epoch tickets, verifies them on receipt, rotates epoch keys, stores epoch history, and routes group DMs through the current epoch public key.
