For VerifiableCertificates verifier keyring creation, both the serial number and field name are available,
so the `keyID` is formed by concatenating the `serialNumber` and `fieldName`.

```ts
static getCertificateFieldEncryptionDetails(fieldName: string, serialNumber?: string): {
    protocolID: WalletProtocol;
    keyID: string;
}

Returns

An object containing:
- `protocolID` (WalletProtocol): The protocol ID for certificate field encryption.
- `keyID` (string): A unique key identifier. It is the `fieldName` if `serialNumber` is undefined,
otherwise it is a combination of `serialNumber` and `fieldName`.

```ts
async sign(certifierWallet: ProtoWallet): Promise<void> 
```
See also: [ProtoWallet](./wallet.md#class-protowallet)

Argument Details

+ **certifierWallet**
  + The wallet representing the certifier.

#### Method toBinary

Serializes the certificate into binary format, with or without a signature.

```ts
toBinary(includeSignature: boolean = true): number[] 
```

Returns

- The serialized certificate in binary format.

Argument Details

+ **includeSignature**
  + Whether to include the signature in the serialization.

#### Method verify

### Class: MasterCertificate

MasterCertificate extends the base Certificate class to manage a master keyring, enabling the creation of verifiable certificates.

It allows for the selective disclosure of certificate fields by creating a `VerifiableCertificate` for a specific verifier.
The `MasterCertificate` can securely decrypt each master key and re-encrypt it for a verifier, creating a customized
keyring containing only the keys necessary for the verifier to access designated fields.

```ts
export class MasterCertificate extends Certificate {
    declare type: Base64String;
    declare serialNumber: Base64String;
    declare subject: PubKeyHex;
    declare certifier: PubKeyHex;
    declare revocationOutpoint: OutpointString;

#### Method createCertificateFields

Encrypts certificate fields for a subject and generates a master keyring.
This method returns a master keyring tied to a specific certifier or subject who will validate
and sign off on the fields, along with the encrypted certificate fields.

```ts
static async createCertificateFields(creatorWallet: ProtoWallet, certifierOrSubject: WalletCounterparty, fields: Record<CertificateFieldNameUnder50Bytes, string>, privileged?: boolean, privilegedReason?: string): Promise<CreateCertificateFieldsResult> 
```
See also: [CertificateFieldNameUnder50Bytes](./wallet.md#type-certificatefieldnameunder50bytes), [ProtoWallet](./wallet.md#class-protowallet), [WalletCounterparty](./wallet.md#type-walletcounterparty)

Returns

A promise resolving to an object containing:
- `certificateFields` {Record<CertificateFieldNameUnder50Bytes, Base64String>}:
The encrypted certificate fields.
- `masterKeyring` {Record<CertificateFieldNameUnder50Bytes, Base64String>}:
The master keyring containing encrypted revelation keys for each field.

Argument Details

+ **creatorWallet**
  + The wallet of the creator responsible for encrypting the fields.
+ **certifierOrSubject**
  + The certifier or subject who will validate the certificate fields.
+ **fields**
  + A record of certificate field names (under 50 bytes) mapped to their values.
+ **privileged**
  + Whether this is a privileged request.
+ **privilegedReason**
  + Reason provided for privileged access, required if this is a privileged operation.   *

#### Method createKeyringForVerifier

Creates a keyring for a verifier, enabling them to decrypt specific certificate fields.
This method decrypts the master field keys for the specified fields and re-encrypts them
for the verifier's identity key. The result is a keyring containing the keys necessary
for the verifier to access the designated fields.

```ts
static async createKeyringForVerifier(subjectWallet: ProtoWallet, certifier: WalletCounterparty, verifier: WalletCounterparty, fields: Record<CertificateFieldNameUnder50Bytes, Base64String>, fieldsToReveal: string[], masterKeyring: Record<CertificateFieldNameUnder50Bytes, Base64String>, serialNumber: Base64String, privileged?: boolean, privilegedReason?: string): Promise<Record<CertificateFieldNameUnder50Bytes, string>> 
```
See also: [Base64String](./wallet.md#type-base64string), [CertificateFieldNameUnder50Bytes](./wallet.md#type-certificatefieldnameunder50bytes), [ProtoWallet](./wallet.md#class-protowallet), [WalletCounterparty](./wallet.md#type-walletcounterparty)

Returns

- A keyring mapping field names to encrypted field revelation keys, allowing the verifier to decrypt specified fields.

Argument Details

+ **subjectWallet**
  + The wallet instance of the subject, used to decrypt and re-encrypt field keys.
+ **verifier**
  + The verifier who will receive access to the selectively revealed fields. Can be an identity key as hex, 'anyone', or 'self'.
+ **fieldsToReveal**
  + An array of field names to be revealed to the verifier. Must be a subset of the certificate's fields.
+ **originator**
  + Optional originator identifier, used if additional context is needed for decryption and encryption operations.
+ **privileged**
  + Whether this is a privileged request.
+ **privilegedReason**
  + Reason provided for privileged access, required if this is a privileged operation.   *

Throws

Throws an error if:
- fieldsToReveal is not an array of strings.
- A field in `fieldsToReveal` does not exist in the certificate.
- The decrypted master field key fails to decrypt the corresponding field (indicating an invalid key).

#### Method decryptFields

Decrypts all fields in the MasterCertificate using the subject's or certifier's wallet.

This method allows the subject or certifier to decrypt the `masterKeyring` and retrieve
the encryption keys for each field, which are then used to decrypt the corresponding field values.
The counterparty used for decryption depends on how the certificate fields were created:
- If the certificate is self-signed, the counterparty should be set to 'self'.
- Otherwise, the counterparty should always be the other party involved in the certificate issuance process (the subject or certifier).

```ts
static async decryptFields(subjectOrCertifierWallet: ProtoWallet, masterKeyring: Record<CertificateFieldNameUnder50Bytes, Base64String>, fields: Record<CertificateFieldNameUnder50Bytes, Base64String>, counterparty: WalletCounterparty, privileged?: boolean, privilegedReason?: string): Promise<Record<CertificateFieldNameUnder50Bytes, string>> 
```
See also: [Base64String](./wallet.md#type-base64string), [CertificateFieldNameUnder50Bytes](./wallet.md#type-certificatefieldnameunder50bytes), [ProtoWallet](./wallet.md#class-protowallet), [WalletCounterparty](./wallet.md#type-walletcounterparty)

Returns

A promise resolving to a record of field names and their decrypted values in plaintext.

Argument Details

+ **subjectOrCertifierWallet**
  + The wallet of the subject or certifier, used to decrypt the master keyring and field values.
+ **masterKeyring**
  + A record containing encrypted keys for each field.
+ **fields**
  + A record of encrypted field names and their values.
+ **counterparty**
  + The counterparty responsible for creating or signing the certificate. For self-signed certificates, use 'self'.
+ **privileged**
  + Whether this is a privileged request.
+ **privilegedReason**
  + Reason provided for privileged access, required if this is a privileged operation.

Throws

Throws an error if the `masterKeyring` is invalid or if decryption fails for any field.

#### Method issueCertificateForSubject

Issues a new MasterCertificate for a specified subject.

This method generates a certificate containing encrypted fields and a keyring
for the subject to decrypt all fields. Each field is encrypted with a randomly
generated symmetric key, which is then encrypted for the subject. The certificate
can also includes a revocation outpoint to manage potential revocation.

```ts
static async issueCertificateForSubject(certifierWallet: ProtoWallet, subject: WalletCounterparty, fields: Record<CertificateFieldNameUnder50Bytes, string>, certificateType: string, getRevocationOutpoint = async (_serial: string): Promise<string> => {
    void _serial;
    return "00".repeat(32);
}, serialNumber?: string): Promise<MasterCertificate> 
```

### Class: SessionManager

Manages sessions for peers, allowing multiple concurrent sessions
per identity key. Primary lookup is always by `sessionNonce`.

```ts
export class SessionManager {
    constructor() 
    addSession(session: PeerSession): void 
    updateSession(session: PeerSession): void 
    getSession(identifier: string): PeerSession | undefined 
    removeSession(session: PeerSession): void 
    hasSession(identifier: string): boolean 
}
```

See also: [PeerSession](./auth.md#interface-peersession)

#### Method addSession

Adds a session to the manager, associating it with its sessionNonce,
and also with its peerIdentityKey (if any).

This does NOT overwrite existing sessions for the same peerIdentityKey,
allowing multiple concurrent sessions for the same peer.

```ts
addSession(session: PeerSession): void 
```
See also: [PeerSession](./auth.md#interface-peersession)

Argument Details

+ **session**
  + The peer session to add.

#### Method getSession

Retrieves a session based on a given identifier, which can be:
 - A sessionNonce, or
 - A peerIdentityKey.

If it is a `sessionNonce`, returns that exact session.
If it is a `peerIdentityKey`, returns the "best" (e.g. most recently updated,
authenticated) session associated with that peer, if any.

```ts
getSession(identifier: string): PeerSession | undefined 
```
See also: [PeerSession](./auth.md#interface-peersession)

Returns

- The matching peer session, or undefined if not found.

Argument Details

+ **identifier**
  + The identifier for the session (sessionNonce or peerIdentityKey).

#### Method hasSession

Checks if a session exists for a given identifier (either sessionNonce or identityKey).

```ts
hasSession(identifier: string): boolean 
```

Returns

- True if the session exists, false otherwise.

Argument Details

+ **identifier**
  + The identifier to check.

#### Method removeSession

Removes a session from the manager by clearing all associated identifiers.

```ts
removeSession(session: PeerSession): void 
```
See also: [PeerSession](./auth.md#interface-peersession)

Argument Details

+ **session**
  + The peer session to remove.

#### Method updateSession

Updates a session in the manager (primarily by re-adding it),
ensuring we record the latest data (e.g., isAuthenticated, lastUpdate, etc.).

```ts
updateSession(session: PeerSession): void 
```
See also: [PeerSession](./auth.md#interface-peersession)

Argument Details

+ **session**
  + The peer session to update.

### Class: SimplifiedFetchTransport

Implements an HTTP-specific transport for handling Peer mutual authentication messages.
This class integrates with fetch to send and receive authenticated messages between peers.

```ts
export class SimplifiedFetchTransport implements Transport {
    fetchClient: typeof fetch;
    baseUrl: string;
    constructor(baseUrl: string, fetchClient = defaultFetch) 
    async send(message: AuthMessage): Promise<void>

    deserializeRequestPayload(payload: number[]): {
        method: string;
        urlPostfix: string;
        headers: Record<string, string>;
        body: number[];
        requestId: string;
    } 
}
```

See also: [AuthMessage](./auth.md#interface-authmessage), [Transport](./auth.md#interface-transport)

#### Constructor

Constructs a new instance of SimplifiedFetchTransport.

```ts
constructor(baseUrl: string, fetchClient = defaultFetch) 
```

Argument Details

+ **baseUrl**
  + The base URL for all HTTP requests made by this transport.
+ **fetchClient**
  + A fetch implementation to use for HTTP requests (default: global fetch).

#### Method deserializeRequestPayload

Deserializes a request payload from a byte array into an HTTP request-like structure.

```ts
deserializeRequestPayload(payload: number[]): {
    method: string;
    urlPostfix: string;
    headers: Record<string, string>;
    body: number[];
    requestId: string;
} 
```

Returns

An object representing the deserialized request, including the method,
URL postfix (path and query string), headers, body, and request ID.

Argument Details

+ **payload**
  + The serialized payload to deserialize.

#### Method onData

Registers a callback to handle incoming messages.
This must be called before sending any messages to ensure responses can be processed.

```ts

```
See also: [AuthMessage](./auth.md#interface-authmessage)

Returns

A promise that resolves once the callback is set.

Argument Details

+ **callback**
  + A function to invoke when an incoming AuthMessage is received.

#### Method send

Sends a message to an HTTP server using the transport mechanism.
Handles both general and authenticated message types. For general messages,
the payload is deserialized and sent as an HTTP request. For other message types,
the message is sent as a POST request to the `/auth` endpoint.

```ts
async send(message: AuthMessage): Promise<void> 
```
See also: [AuthMessage](./auth.md#interface-authmessage)

Returns

A promise that resolves when the message is successfully sent.

Argument Details

+ **message**
  + The AuthMessage to send.

Throws

Will throw an error if no listener has been registered via `onData`.
