Implements a complete vertical slice of the IP Vault feature for BlackRoad OS,
providing cryptographic timestamping and evidence generation for ideas and
intellectual property.
## Components Added
### Agent Layer
- **VaultAgent** (`agents/categories/security/vault_agent.py`):
- Deterministic text canonicalization
- Multi-hash generation (SHA-256, SHA-512, Keccak-256)
- LEO (Ledger Evidence Object) construction
- Verification text generation
- Blockchain anchoring preparation
### Backend API
- **Models** (`backend/app/models/leo.py`):
- LEO: Stores cryptographic hashes and metadata
- AnchorEvent: Audit trail for blockchain anchoring
- **Schemas** (`backend/app/schemas/leo.py`):
- LEOCreate, LEOResponse, LEODetail, LEOList
- AnchorRequest, AnchorEventResponse
- **Router** (`backend/app/routers/ip_vault.py`):
- POST /api/vault/leos - Create new LEO
- GET /api/vault/leos - List LEOs (paginated)
- GET /api/vault/leos/{id} - Get LEO details
- POST /api/vault/leos/{id}/anchor - Initiate anchoring (stub)
- GET /api/vault/leos/{id}/events - Get anchor events
### Frontend
- **API Client** (`backend/static/js/api-client.js`):
- createLEO(), getLEOs(), getLEO()
- anchorLEO(), getLEOEvents()
- **App** (`backend/static/js/apps.js`):
- loadIPVault() - Load and display LEOs
- vaultIdea() - Create new LEO from form
- viewLEO() - Show detailed LEO modal with verification
- **UI** (`backend/static/index.html`):
- Desktop icon (🔐 IP Vault)
- Window with form and list view
- Start menu integration
## Features
- **Deterministic canonicalization**: Ensures reproducible hashing
- **Multi-hash support**: SHA-256, SHA-512, Keccak-256 (Ethereum-compatible)
- **Verification instructions**: Auto-generated proof-of-authenticity text
- **Blockchain-ready**: Prepared for Bitcoin, Litecoin, Ethereum anchoring
- **Clean separation**: Agent logic, API, database, frontend all decoupled
## Testing
- Python syntax validated for all new files
- JavaScript syntax validated
- VaultAgent tested end-to-end with sample idea
- All hashes computed successfully
## Next Steps
- Implement actual blockchain anchoring
- Add RoadChain integration
- Export LEOs as legal-grade PDFs
- Add user authentication to LEO creation
