identity-atoms

Identity primitives unified across vendors — auth methods, claim types, trust frameworks, key and certificate types — defined once and composable into identity profiles, federated setups, and persona templates.

identity-atoms is a *-Atoms catalog in the Convergent Systems ecosystem. It defines what exists in its domain — typed, versioned, machine-readable, composable, and open — so runtimes (and humans) can stand on shared infrastructure instead of reinventing it.

Atom types

• auth-method
• claim-type
• trust-framework
• key-cert-type

Rule types

• trust-chain
• claim-validation
• key-rotation

Runtime consumers

aish, universal-bus

How to consume

Machine-readable exports are published in exports/ on every release:

• exports/manifest.json — lightweight discovery (name, version, counts)
• exports/catalog.json — full catalog dump (every atom, composition, rule)

Exports are deterministic, signed, and versioned. See ATOMS.yml for the manifest and the conformance spec.

How to contribute

1. Read ATOMS.yml to understand the catalog's atom types, compositions, and rules.
2. Add a new atom under atoms/<type>/ or a composition under identities/<name>/.
3. Open a PR. CI validates the schema, references, and exports.
4. Larger structural changes go through the XAIP process.
