We're building an open source implementation for Web Bot Auth, which is an IETF draft for signed agent authentication over HTTP, without CDN lock-in.

We've built a social registry, using Github login, where you can host your Signature Agent card/JWKS over a dedicated link. This saves you buying a domain and self-hosting your card. Please try it out : https://openbotauth.org/login

We've also built a Wordpress plugin, which works in signed and unsigned mode. Unsigned mode gives you a preview and Signed mode gives you all access. Websites can point their origin server to our registry or use other registries to block unverified traffic.

Demo: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8W5tScru5Us Docs: https://docs.openbotauth.org

The next step is to build the delegation as discussed here: https://thibmeu.github.io/http-message-signatures-directory/...

We'd love your feedback on our social registry and how we can improve it. :)
