Purpose. A minimal, implementation-agnostic offline interface and repeatable workflows for SSM-Clock Stamp. All inputs/outputs are plain ASCII; comparisons are string-based.
What this section provides (at a glance)
- Commands (normative semantics):
stamp,verify,anchor-make,anchor-verify,verify-all. - Canonical behavior: fixed prints, ASCII-only hashing inputs, leap-second ban.
- Expected outputs: concise, copy-ready stdout lines.
- Failure mapping: deterministic reasons → actions.
- Minimal pseudocode: portable verifier outline.
- Operational playbook: stamp → verify → daily anchor → audit → incident response.
Design rules (recap, must)
- One-line stamp:
SSMCLOCK1|iso_utc|rasi_idx|theta_deg|sha256(file)|chain[|kv:...] - Clock:
theta_deg = wrap360( (unix_seconds / 86400) * 360 );rasi_idx = floor(theta_deg / 30) - Chain:
chain_k = H_chain( ascii(chain_{k-1} + "|" + stamp_core) )withchain_0 = "0"*64 - Anchors:
rollup_D = sha256( ascii(Stamp_1 "|" ... "|" Stamp_n) )after canonical sort - Float/print: IEEE-754 binary64,
theta_precfixed digits (default5), round-half-to-even - Digests: lowercase 64-hex; all hash inputs are exact ASCII of the shown concatenations
- Leap second:
23:59:60is forbidden (reject)
What you need to implement
- File hashing with streaming equivalence (
H_algoin{sha256, sha3_256, blake2b-256}) - UTC parser that rejects offsets/subseconds and
:60 - Fixed-digit angle formatting with banker’s rounding
- Chain rewalk that can vary
chain_algoper row - Canonical daily selection + ordering + join for anchors
- Strict
kv:parsing with defaults and domain checks; ignore unknown keys
