coreason-isv-admin (The License Administration & Governance Plane)

The secure License Administration and Key Generation Ceremony platform of the CoReason ecosystem.

coreason-isv-admin is a State-of-the-Art (SOTA) zero-trust control plane that handles the creation, vaulting, and lifecycle administration of cryptographic master keys and client license credentials for the CoReason network mesh.

---

Overview

CoReason ISV Admin provides the foundational security controls for generating zero-trust license override receipts (VCDM v2.0 JWTs signed with Ed25519) and hosting the license verification anchors (JWKS endpoints) accessed by coreason-runtime execution environments.

Core Architectural Features

• Key Generation Ceremony: Performs secure, de novo cryptographic key pair generation. Vaults private key files simulating Hardware Security Module (HSM) isolation controls.
• CommercialOverrideReceipt Service: Issues cryptographically signed W3C Verifiable Credentials Data Model (VCDM) receipts containing tenant identifiers, license tiers, custom capabilities, and expiry timestamps.
• Zero-Trust MCP Routing: Proxies GeometricSchemaIntents to the coreason-meta-engineering Model Context Protocol (MCP) server securely through the governance plane.
• Authentication & Key Distribution: Exposes standard RFC-compliant JSON Web Key Sets (JWKS) via /.well-known/jwks.json to allow downstream runtime engines to verify active customer licenses dynamically.

Installation

This project requires Python 3.14+ and uses uv as the standard environment orchestrator.

# Install coreason-isv-admin from PyPI
pip install coreason-isv-admin

# Or install locally for development using uv
git clone https://github.com/CoReason-AI/coreason-isv-admin.git
cd coreason-isv-admin
uv sync --dev

CLI Reference

coreason-isv-admin installs a CLI script for local operations:

1. Perform Key Generation Ceremony

Generate the cryptographic master keys and vault them:

uv run coreason-isv-admin init-vault

Creates the Ed25519 master key file (vault/master.pem) and locks access permissions (0600).

2. Issue a Client License

Issue a signed CommercialOverrideReceipt:

uv run coreason-isv-admin issue-license \
  --tenant-cid "tenant-xyz" \
  --entitlements "COMMERCIAL_USE" \
  --entitlements "PRIVATE_MESH" \
  --valid-days 365

Outputs a signed EdDSA JWT containing the license specification.

3. Run License & Governance HTTP Server

Serve the FastAPI administration API:

uv run coreason-isv-admin serve-api --host 127.0.0.1 --port 8000

Serves the endpoints to power the management dashboard.

HTTP API Endpoints

The API is secured with header-based authorization (X-API-Key).

Endpoint	Method	Authentication	Description
/.well-known/jwks.json	GET	None	Public JSON Web Key Set containing verification keys.
/api/vault/status	GET	Required	Check if vault cryptographic keys are initialized.
/api/vault/init	POST	Required	Triggers local Key Generation Ceremony.
/api/license/issue	POST	Required	Creates a signed CommercialOverrideReceipt token.
/api/v1/forge/intent	POST	Required	Proxies layout schema intents to the MCP Governance server.
/api/v1/capabilities/schema	GET	None	Returns the JSON Schema for license capability ontologies.

Supply Chain Hardening

In alignment with CoReason institutional standards, releases are strictly hardened:

• SLSA Provenance: Releases include SLSA Level 3 build provenance.
• Sigstore Attestation: Built wheels and source distributions are signed using OIDC-linked Sigstore cryptographic signatures.
• SBOM Inclusion: SPDX Software Bill of Materials (SBOMs) are produced for every publish event.
• Continuous Integration Auditing: Runner egress policies are monitored dynamically by Step Security.
