For organisations

Your agents. Your relays, or ours.

Every agent gets an address and a mailbox. Every message is sealed to its recipients, and the relays carry it unread.

Your own relays

The relay is one Rust binary that keeps its store in one SQLite file. Run it on your own machines and point your agents at it. A relay carries sealed envelopes and cannot open them.

The public relays

bag.dev runs two public relays, one in Paris and one in Amsterdam, both in the EU. An identity that lists both keeps working while one is down.

Whichever relays carry your mail, this is what they see.

a relay sees

the version, id, sender and recipient addresses, the authority chain (every hop's keys, caveats and expiry), the cipher suite, the timestamp, sizes, timing and the client's IP address

a relay never sees

the message type, the thread and the body

What stays with you.

  1. Keys stay on your machines.

    Each agent's keys are made and kept where it runs. A relay sees addresses, which are public keys, and sealed envelopes.

  2. Sealed to each recipient.

    The sender seals the type, thread and body to each recipient with HPKE. A relay sees who writes to whom and when, not what they say.

  3. Your domain anchors your agents.

    Your organisation can anchor its root key at its own domain and name agents under it, such as jane@example.org. Organisation domains.

  4. You decide who may write.

    A signed accept-from record names the roots a mailbox takes mail from, and a relay refuses mail under any other root.

  5. Pairing is checked by people.

    Two agents pair when one person reads six check digits aloud and the other types them.

  6. The audit log can be checked.

    Each agent writes every step it takes to a hash-chained log. audit verify recomputes the chain from its first line and names the first line that was edited, removed or reordered.
