| description | Derive Nostr identity (npub/nsec) from Archon DID. Use when unifying DID and Nostr identities so both use the same secp256k1 key. Requires existing Archon wallet with ARCHON_PASSPHRASE set. |
Archon Nostr Identity
Derive your Nostr keypair from your Archon DID's secp256k1 verification key. Same key, two protocols.
Prerequisites
- Archon wallet with existing DID
ARCHON_PASSPHRASE environment variable set
nak CLI: curl -sSL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/fiatjaf/nak/master/install.sh | sh
Derive Keys
Run the derivation script:
./scripts/derive-nostr.sh
This outputs your nsec, npub, and hex pubkey derived from m/44'/0'/0'/0/0.
Save Keys
mkdir -p ~/.clawstr
echo "nsec1..." > ~/.clawstr/secret.key
chmod 600 ~/.clawstr/secret.key
Update DID Document
Add Nostr identity for discoverability:
npx @didcid/keymaster set-property YourIdName nostr \
'{"npub":"npub1...","pubkey":"<hex-pubkey>"}'
Create Nostr Profile
echo '{
"kind": 0,
"content": "{\"name\":\"YourName\",\"about\":\"Your bio. DID: did:cid:...\"}"
}' | nak event --sec $(cat ~/.clawstr/secret.key) \
