+When building, use build.sh, not make. When building for tests use build.sh -t
+
+When making TUI menus, try to use the first leter of the command and the key to press to execute that command. For example, if the command is "Open file" try to use a keypress of "o" upper or lower case to signal to open the file. Use this instead of number keyed menus when possible. In the command, the letter should be underlined that signifies the command.

+MAKEFILE POLICY: There should be only ONE Makefile in the entire project. All build logic (library, tests, examples, websocket) must be consolidated into the root Makefile. Do not create separate Makefiles in subdirectories as this creates testing inconsistencies where you test with one Makefile but run with another.
+
+TESTS POLICY: On the printout, dont just show pass or fail, show the expected values, and what the actual result was. If dealing with nostr events, print the entire json event. If dealing with relay communication, show the whole communication.

+# NOSTR Core Library - Automatic Versioning System
+
+## Overview
+
+The NOSTR Core Library now features an automatic version increment system that automatically increments the patch version (e.g., v0.2.0 → v0.2.1) with each build. This ensures consistent versioning and traceability across builds.
+
+## How It Works
+
+### Version Format
+The library uses semantic versioning with the format: `vMAJOR.MINOR.PATCH`
+
+- **MAJOR**: Incremented for breaking changes (manual)
+- **MINOR**: Incremented for new features (manual)  
+- **PATCH**: Incremented automatically with each build
+
+### Automatic Increment Process
+
+1. **Version Detection**: The build system scans all git tags matching `v*.*.*` pattern
+2. **Highest Version**: Uses `sort -V` to find the numerically highest version (not chronologically latest)
+3. **Patch Increment**: Increments the patch number by 1
+4. **Git Tag Creation**: Creates a new git tag for the incremented version
+5. **File Generation**: Generates `nostr_core/version.h` and `nostr_core/version.c` with build metadata
+
+### Generated Files
+
+The system automatically generates two files during each build:
+
+#### `nostr_core/version.h`
+```c
+#define VERSION_MAJOR 0
+#define VERSION_MINOR 2  
+#define VERSION_PATCH 1
+#define VERSION_STRING "0.2.1"
+#define VERSION_TAG "v0.2.1"
+
+#define BUILD_DATE "2025-08-09"
+#define BUILD_TIME "10:42:45"
+#define BUILD_TIMESTAMP "2025-08-09 10:42:45"
+
+#define GIT_HASH "ca6b475"
+#define GIT_BRANCH "master"
+
+// API functions
+const char* nostr_core_get_version(void);
+const char* nostr_core_get_version_full(void);
+const char* nostr_core_get_build_info(void);
+```
+
+#### `nostr_core/version.c`
+Contains the implementation of the version API functions.
+
+## Usage
+
+### Building with Auto-Versioning
+
+All major build targets automatically increment the version:
+
+```bash
+# Build static library (increments version)
+./build.sh lib
+
+# Build shared library (increments version)
+./build.sh shared
+
+# Build all libraries (increments version)
+./build.sh all
+
+# Build examples (increments version)
+./build.sh examples
+
+# Install to system (increments version)
+./build.sh install
+```
+
+### Non-Versioned Builds
+
+Some targets do not increment versions:
+
+```bash
+# Clean build artifacts (no version increment)
+./build.sh clean
+
+# Run tests (no version increment)
+./build.sh test
+```
+
+### Using Version Information in Code
+
+```c
+#include "version.h"
+
+// Get version string
+printf("Version: %s\n", nostr_core_get_version());
+
+// Get full version with timestamp and commit
+printf("Full: %s\n", nostr_core_get_version_full());
+
+// Get detailed build information  
+printf("Build: %s\n", nostr_core_get_build_info());
+
+// Use version macros
+#if VERSION_MAJOR >= 1
+    // Use new API
+#else
+    // Use legacy API
+#endif
+```
+
+### Testing Version System
+
+A version test example is provided:
+
+```bash
+# Build and run version test
+gcc -I. -Inostr_core examples/version_test.c -o examples/version_test ./libnostr_core.a ./secp256k1/.libs/libsecp256k1.a -lm
+./examples/version_test
+```
+
+## Version History Tracking
+
+### View All Versions
+```bash
+# List all version tags
+git tag --list
+
+# View version history
+git log --oneline --decorate --graph
+```
+
+### Current Version
+```bash
+# Check current version
+cat VERSION
+
+# Or check the latest git tag
+git describe --tags --abbrev=0
+```
+
+## Manual Version Management
+
+### Major/Minor Version Bumps
+
+For major or minor version changes, manually create the appropriate tag:
+
+```bash
+# For a minor version bump (new features)
+git tag v0.3.0
+
+# For a major version bump (breaking changes)  
+git tag v1.0.0
+```
+
+The next build will automatically increment from the new base version.
+
+### Resetting Version
+
+To reset or fix version numbering:
+
+```bash
+# Delete incorrect tags (if needed)
+git tag -d v0.2.1
+git push origin --delete v0.2.1
+
+# Create correct base version
+git tag v0.2.0
+
+# Next build will create v0.2.1
+```
+
+## Integration Notes
+
+### Makefile Integration
+- The `version.c` file is automatically included in `LIB_SOURCES`
+- Version files are compiled and linked with the library
+- Clean targets remove generated version object files
+
+### Git Integration
+- Version files (`version.h`, `version.c`) are excluded from git via `.gitignore`
+- Only version tags and the `VERSION` file are tracked
+- Build system works in any git repository with version tags
+
+### Build System Integration
+- Version increment is integrated directly into `build.sh`
+- No separate scripts or external dependencies required
+- Self-contained and portable across systems
+
+## Example Output
+
+When building, you'll see output like:
+
+```
+[INFO] Incrementing version...
+[INFO] Current version: v0.2.0
+[INFO] New version: v0.2.1
+[SUCCESS] Created new version tag: v0.2.1
+[SUCCESS] Generated version.h and version.c
+[SUCCESS] Updated VERSION file to 0.2.1
+```
+
+## Troubleshooting
+
+### Version Not Incrementing
+- Ensure you're in a git repository
+- Check that git tags exist with `git tag --list`
+- Verify tag format matches `v*.*.*` pattern
+
+### Tag Already Exists
+If a tag already exists, the build will continue with the existing version:
+
+```
+[WARNING] Tag v0.2.1 already exists - using existing version
+```
+
+### Missing Git Information
+If git is not available, version files will show "unknown" for git hash and branch.
+
+## Benefits
+
+1. **Automatic Traceability**: Every build has a unique version
+2. **Build Metadata**: Includes timestamp, git commit, and branch information  
+3. **API Integration**: Version information accessible via C API
+4. **Zero Maintenance**: No manual version file editing required
+5. **Git Integration**: Automatic git tag creation for version history

-# Exportable C NOSTR Library Design Guide
-
-This document outlines the design principles and structure for making the C NOSTR library easily exportable and reusable across multiple projects.
-
-## Overview
-
-The C NOSTR library is designed as a modular, self-contained implementation that can be easily integrated into other projects while maintaining compatibility with the broader NOSTR ecosystem.
-
-## Design Principles
-
-### 1. Modular Architecture
- **Core Layer**: Essential NOSTR functionality (`nostr_core.c/h`)
- **Crypto Layer**: Self-contained cryptographic primitives (`nostr_crypto.c/h`)
- **WebSocket Layer**: Optional networking functionality (`nostr_websocket/`)
- **Dependencies**: Minimal external dependencies (only cJSON and mbedTLS)
-
-### 2. Clean API Surface
- Consistent function naming with `nostr_` prefix
- Clear return codes using `NOSTR_SUCCESS`/`NOSTR_ERROR_*` constants
- Well-documented function signatures
- No global state where possible
-
-### 3. Self-Contained Crypto
- Custom implementations of SHA-256, HMAC, secp256k1
- BIP39 wordlist embedded in code
- No external crypto library dependencies for core functionality
- Optional mbedTLS integration for enhanced security
-
-### 4. Cross-Platform Compatibility
- Standard C99 code
- Platform-specific code isolated in separate modules
- ARM64 and x86_64 tested builds
- Static library compilation support
-
-## Library Structure
-
-```

-├── nostr_core.h          # High-level API
-├── nostr_core.c          # Implementation
-├── nostr_crypto.h        # Crypto primitives API

-├── tests/                # Test suites
-└── nostr_websocket/      # Optional WebSocket layer
-```
-
-## Integration Methods
-
-### Method 1: Static Library Linking
-
-**Best for**: Applications that want a single binary with all NOSTR functionality embedded.
-
-```bash
-# Build the library
-make lib
-
-# In your project Makefile:
-CFLAGS += -I/path/to/c_nostr
-LDFLAGS += -L/path/to/c_nostr -lnostr_core -lm -static
-```
-
-**Usage:**
-```c
-#include "nostr_core.h"
-
-int main() {
-    if (nostr_init() != NOSTR_SUCCESS) {
-        return 1;
-    }
-    
-    unsigned char private_key[32], public_key[32];
-    nostr_generate_keypair(private_key, public_key);
-    
-    cJSON* event = nostr_create_text_event("Hello NOSTR!", private_key);
-    // ... use event
-    
-    nostr_cleanup();
-    return 0;
-}
-```
-
-### Method 2: Source Code Integration
-
-**Best for**: Applications that want to customize the crypto backend or minimize dependencies.
-
-```bash
-# Copy essential files to your project:
-cp nostr_core.{c,h} your_project/src/
-cp nostr_crypto.{c,h} your_project/src/
-cp -r cjson/ your_project/src/
-```
-
-**Compile with your project:**
-```c
-// In your source
-#include "nostr_core.h"
-// Use NOSTR functions directly
-```
-
-### Method 3: Git Submodule
-
-**Best for**: Projects that want to track upstream changes and contribute back.
-
-```bash
-# In your project root:
-git submodule add https://github.com/yourorg/c_nostr.git deps/c_nostr
-git submodule update --init --recursive
-
-# In your Makefile:
-CFLAGS += -Ideps/c_nostr
-LDFLAGS += -Ldeps/c_nostr -lnostr_core
-```
-
-### Method 4: Shared Library
-
-**Best for**: System-wide installation or multiple applications sharing the same NOSTR implementation.
-
-```bash
-# Install system-wide
-sudo make install
-
-# In your project:
-CFLAGS += $(pkg-config --cflags nostr_core)
-LDFLAGS += $(pkg-config --libs nostr_core)
-```
-
-## API Design for Exportability
-
-### Consistent Error Handling
-```c
-typedef enum {
-    NOSTR_SUCCESS = 0,
-    NOSTR_ERROR_INVALID_INPUT = -1,
-    NOSTR_ERROR_CRYPTO_FAILED = -2,
-    NOSTR_ERROR_MEMORY_ALLOCATION = -3,
-    NOSTR_ERROR_JSON_PARSE = -4,
-    NOSTR_ERROR_NETWORK = -5
-} nostr_error_t;
-
-const char* nostr_strerror(int error_code);
-```
-
-### Clean Resource Management
-```c
-// Always provide cleanup functions
-int nostr_init(void);
-void nostr_cleanup(void);
-
-// JSON objects returned should be freed by caller
-cJSON* nostr_create_text_event(const char* content, const unsigned char* private_key);
-// Caller must call cJSON_Delete(event) when done
-```
-
-### Optional Features
-```c
-// Compile-time feature toggles
-#ifndef NOSTR_DISABLE_WEBSOCKETS
-int nostr_connect_relay(const char* url);
-#endif
-
-#ifndef NOSTR_DISABLE_IDENTITY_PERSISTENCE
-int nostr_save_identity(const unsigned char* private_key, const char* password, int account);
-#endif
-```
-

-    cJSON* event = nostr_create_text_event("Hello from my app!", priv);
-    char* json_string = cJSON_Print(event);
-    printf("Event: %s\n", json_string);
-    
-    // Cleanup
-    free(json_string);
-    cJSON_Delete(event);
-    nostr_cleanup();
-    return 0;
-}
-```
-
-**Compile:**
-```bash
-gcc -I. minimal_nostr.c nostr_core.c nostr_crypto.c cjson/cJSON.c -lm -o minimal_nostr
-```
-
-## Future Considerations
-
-### Language Bindings
-The C library is designed to be easily wrapped:
- **Python**: Use ctypes or cffi
- **JavaScript**: Use Node.js FFI or WASM compilation
- **Go**: Use cgo
- **Rust**: Use bindgen for FFI bindings
-
-### WebAssembly Support
-The library can be compiled to WebAssembly for browser usage:
-```bash
-emcc -O3 -s WASM=1 -s EXPORTED_FUNCTIONS='["_nostr_init", "_nostr_generate_keypair"]' \
-     nostr_core.c nostr_crypto.c cjson/cJSON.c -o nostr.wasm
-```
-
-### Package Manager Support
-Future versions may include:
- pkgconfig files for system installation
- CMake integration for easier builds
- vcpkg/Conan package definitions
-
-## Contributing Back
-
-Projects using this library are encouraged to:
-1. Report compatibility issues
-2. Submit test vectors from their use cases  
-3. Contribute performance improvements
-4. Add support for additional NIPs
-
-## Version Compatibility
-
-The library follows semantic versioning:
- **Major**: Breaking API changes
- **Minor**: New features, backward compatible
- **Patch**: Bug fixes
-
-API stability guarantees:
- All functions prefixed with `nostr_` are part of the stable API
- Internal functions (static or prefixed with `_`) may change
- Configuration structures may be extended but not modified
-
---
-
-This design ensures the C NOSTR library can be easily adopted by other projects while maintaining high compatibility with the NOSTR ecosystem standards.

-# c-nostr Export and Implementation Guide
-
-## Overview
-
-This guide provides essential information for developers using the `c-nostr` library, particularly regarding the capabilities and limitations of its self-contained modules, such as the HTTP client.
-
-## HTTP Client (`http_client.c`)
-
-The `http_client` module is a lightweight, self-contained HTTP/HTTPS client designed for simple and direct web requests. It is ideal for tasks like fetching NIP-11 information from Nostr relays or interacting with standard, permissive web APIs.
-
-### Key Features
-
-*   **Self-Contained**: It is built with `mbedTLS` and has no external dependencies beyond standard C libraries, making it highly portable.
-*   **Simplicity**: It provides a straightforward `http_get()` function for making web requests.
-*   **TLS Support**: It supports HTTPS and basic TLS 1.3/1.2 features, including SNI (Server Name Indication) and ALPN (Application-Layer Protocol Negotiation).
-
-### Limitations
-
-The `http_client` is intentionally simple and is **not a full-featured web browser**. Due to its minimalist design, it will likely be blocked by websites that employ advanced anti-bot protection systems.
-
-*   **Incompatibility with Advanced Bot Protection**: Sites like Google, Cloudflare, and others use sophisticated fingerprinting techniques to distinguish between real browsers and automated clients. They analyze the exact combination of TLS cipher suites, TLS extensions, and HTTP headers. Our client's fingerprint does not match a standard browser, so these sites will preemptively drop the connection, typically resulting in a `HTTP_ERROR_NETWORK` error.
-
-*   **Intended Use Case**: This client is best suited for interacting with known, friendly APIs and Nostr relays. It is **not** designed for general web scraping or for accessing services that are heavily guarded against automated traffic.
-
-### Best Practices
-
-*   **Use for APIs and Relays**: Rely on this client for fetching data from well-defined, public endpoints that do not have aggressive bot-detection measures in place.
-*   **Avoid Protected Sites**: Do not attempt to use this client to access services like Google Search, as such attempts will fail. For those use cases, a full-featured library like `libcurl` or a dedicated web-scraping framework is required.
-*   **Check the Test Suite**: The `tests/http_client_test.c` file contains test cases that demonstrate both the successful use cases (e.g., `httpbin.org`) and the expected failures (e.g., `google.com`), providing a clear reference for the client's capabilities.

-# NOSTR Core Library - Usage Guide
-
-## Overview
-
-The NOSTR Core Library (`libnostr_core`) is a self-contained, exportable C library for NOSTR protocol implementation. It requires **no external cryptographic dependencies** (no OpenSSL, no libwally) and can be easily integrated into other projects.
-
-## Key Features
-
- **Self-Contained Crypto**: All cryptographic operations implemented from scratch
- **Zero External Dependencies**: Only requires standard C library, cJSON, and libwebsockets
- **Cross-Platform**: Builds on Linux, macOS, Windows (with appropriate toolchain)
- **NIP-06 Compliant**: Proper BIP39/BIP32 implementation for key derivation
- **Thread-Safe**: Core cryptographic functions are stateless and thread-safe
- **Easy Integration**: Simple C API with clear error handling

-        cJSON_Delete(event);
-    }
-    
-    // Cleanup
-    nostr_cleanup();
-    return 0;
-}
-```
-
-## Dependency Management
-
-### Required Dependencies
- **Standard C Library**: malloc, string functions, file I/O
- **Math Library**: `-lm` (for cryptographic calculations)
- **cJSON**: JSON parsing (included, or use system version)
-
-### Optional Dependencies
- **libwebsockets**: Only needed for relay communication functions
- **System cJSON**: Can replace bundled version
-
-### Minimal Integration (Crypto Only)
-If you only need key generation and signing:
-
-```bash
-# Build with minimal dependencies
-gcc -DNOSTR_CRYPTO_ONLY your_project.c nostr_crypto.c -lm
-```
-
-## Cross-Platform Considerations
-
-### Linux
- Works out of the box with GCC
- Install build-essential: `sudo apt install build-essential`
-
-### macOS
- Works with Xcode command line tools
- May need: `xcode-select --install`
-
-### Windows
- Use MinGW-w64 or MSYS2
- Or integrate with Visual Studio project
-
-### Embedded Systems
- Library is designed to work on resource-constrained systems
- No heap allocations in core crypto functions
- Stack usage is predictable and bounded
-
-## API Reference
-
-### Initialization
-```c
-int nostr_init(void);                    // Initialize library
-void nostr_cleanup(void);                // Cleanup resources
-const char* nostr_strerror(int error);   // Get error string
-```
-
-### Key Generation
-```c
-int nostr_generate_keypair(unsigned char* private_key, unsigned char* public_key);
-int nostr_generate_mnemonic_and_keys(char* mnemonic, size_t mnemonic_size, 
-                                     int account, unsigned char* private_key, 
-                                     unsigned char* public_key);
-int nostr_derive_keys_from_mnemonic(const char* mnemonic, int account,
-                                    unsigned char* private_key, unsigned char* public_key);
-```
-
-### Event Creation
-```c
-cJSON* nostr_create_text_event(const char* content, const unsigned char* private_key);
-cJSON* nostr_create_profile_event(const char* name, const char* about, 
-                                  const unsigned char* private_key);
-int nostr_sign_event(cJSON* event, const unsigned char* private_key);
-```
-
-### Utilities
-```c
-void nostr_bytes_to_hex(const unsigned char* bytes, size_t len, char* hex);
-int nostr_hex_to_bytes(const char* hex, unsigned char* bytes, size_t len);
-int nostr_key_to_bech32(const unsigned char* key, const char* hrp, char* output);
-nostr_input_type_t nostr_detect_input_type(const char* input);
-```
-
-## Error Handling
-
-All functions return standardized error codes:
-
- `NOSTR_SUCCESS` (0): Operation successful
- `NOSTR_ERROR_INVALID_INPUT` (-1): Invalid parameters
- `NOSTR_ERROR_CRYPTO_FAILED` (-2): Cryptographic operation failed
- `NOSTR_ERROR_MEMORY_FAILED` (-3): Memory allocation failed
- `NOSTR_ERROR_IO_FAILED` (-4): File I/O operation failed
- `NOSTR_ERROR_NETWORK_FAILED` (-5): Network operation failed
-
-## Security Considerations
-
-1. **Private Key Handling**: Always clear private keys from memory when done
-2. **Random Number Generation**: Uses `/dev/urandom` on Unix systems
-3. **Memory Safety**: All buffers are bounds-checked
-4. **Constant-Time Operations**: Critical crypto operations are timing-attack resistant
-

+- **Production Ready**: Comprehensive test suite and error handling
+
+**Version Timeline:**
+- `v0.1.x` - Initial development releases
+- Focus on core protocol implementation and OpenSSL-based crypto
+- Full NIP-01, NIP-04, NIP-05, NIP-06, NIP-11, NIP-13, NIP-44 support
+
+## 🐛 Troubleshooting
+
+### Common Issues
+
+**Build fails with secp256k1 errors:**
+```bash
+cd secp256k1
+./autogen.sh
+./configure --enable-module-schnorrsig --enable-module-ecdh
+make
+cd ..
+./build.sh lib
+```
+
+**Library too large:**
+The x64 library is intentionally large (~15MB) because it includes all secp256k1 cryptographic functions and OpenSSL for complete self-containment. The ARM64 library is smaller (~2.4MB) as it links against system OpenSSL.
+
+**Linking errors:**
+Make sure to include the math library:
+```bash
+gcc your_code.c ./libnostr_core.a -lm  # Note the -lm flag
+```
+
+### Getting Help
+
+- Check the `examples/` directory for working code
+- Run `./build.sh test` to verify your environment
+- Review the comprehensive API documentation in `nostr_core/nostr_core.h`

-# Version Management System
-
-This project implements an automated version management system for C applications with auto-incrementing build numbers.
-
-## Overview
-
-The version management system consists of:
- **Semantic versioning** (Major.Minor.Patch) in `VERSION` file
- **Auto-incrementing build numbers** in `.build_number` file
- **Generated version header** (`version.h`) with all version info
- **Build-time integration** via `scripts/generate_version.sh`
-
-## Files
-
-### Core Files
- `VERSION` - Contains semantic version (e.g., "1.0.0")
- `.build_number` - Contains current build number (auto-incremented)
- `scripts/generate_version.sh` - Version generation script
- `version.h` - Generated header (auto-created, do not edit)
-
-### Integration Files
- `build.sh` - Modified to call version generation
- `.gitignore` - Excludes generated `version.h`
-
-## Usage
-
-### Building
-Every time you run `./build.sh`, the build number automatically increments:
-
-```bash
-./build.sh  # Build #1
-./build.sh  # Build #2
-./build.sh  # Build #3
-```
-
-### Version Display
-The application shows version information in multiple ways:
-
-**Command Line:**
-```bash
-./build/c_nostr --version
-./build/c_nostr -v
-```
-
-**Interactive Mode:**
- ASCII art title with version
- Header shows: `NOSTR TERMINAL v1.0.0 (Build #3, 2025-07-21)`
-
-### Updating Semantic Version
-To update the major/minor/patch version:
-
-```bash
-echo "1.1.0" > VERSION
-```
-
-The next build will be `v1.1.0 (Build #4)`.
-
-## Generated Macros
-
-The `version.h` file contains these macros:
-
-```c
-#define VERSION_MAJOR 1
-#define VERSION_MINOR 0
-#define VERSION_PATCH 0
-#define VERSION_BUILD 3
-#define VERSION_STRING "1.0.0"
-#define VERSION_FULL "1.0.0.3"
-#define BUILD_NUMBER 3
-#define BUILD_DATE "2025-07-21"
-#define BUILD_TIME "14:53:32"
-#define BUILD_TIMESTAMP "2025-07-21 14:53:32"
-#define GIT_HASH ""
-#define GIT_BRANCH ""
-#define VERSION_DISPLAY "v1.0.0 (Build #3)"
-#define VERSION_FULL_DISPLAY "v1.0.0 (Build #3, 2025-07-21)"
-```
-
-## Integration in Code
-
-Include the version header:
-```c
-#include "version.h"
-```
-
-Use version macros:
-```c
-printf("NOSTR TERMINAL %s\n", VERSION_FULL_DISPLAY);
-printf("Built: %s\n", BUILD_TIMESTAMP);
-```
-
-## Best Practices
-
-1. **Never edit `version.h`** - it's auto-generated
-2. **Commit `.build_number`** - tracks build history
-3. **Update `VERSION` manually** - for semantic version changes
-4. **Build increments automatically** - no manual intervention needed
-
-## Version History
-
-Build numbers are persistent and increment across sessions:
- Build #1: Initial implementation
- Build #2: First rebuild test
- Build #3: Added --version flag
- Build #4: Next build...
-
-## ASCII Art Integration
-
-The version system integrates with the ASCII art title display:
-
-```
-███    ██          ██████  ███████         ████████ ███████ ██████

-### __Tier 1: Foundational & High-Priority NIPs (The Essentials)__
+# Nostr Event Validation Implementation Checklist

-These are fundamental features that most Nostr applications rely on.
+## Implementation Plan: NIP-001 Event Validation

-| NIP | Description | `nostr_core_lib` Status | `nak` / `nostr-tools` Status | Recommendation | | :-- | :--- | :--- | :--- | :--- | | __NIP-04__ | __Encrypted Direct Messages__ | ❌ __Missing__ | ✅ __Supported__ | __High Priority.__ Essential for private communication. The `encrypt` / `decrypt` functions are a must-have. | | __NIP-05__ | __Mapping to DNS-based Names__ | ❌ __Missing__ | ✅ __Supported__ | __High Priority.__ Needed for user-friendly identifiers (e.g., `user@domain.com`). We should add a function to verify these. | | __NIP-07__ | __`window.nostr` for Web Browsers__ | ❌ __Missing__ | ✅ __Supported__ | __Medium Priority (for C).__ This is browser-specific, but we should consider adding helper functions to format requests for browser extensions that implement NIP-07. | | __NIP-11__ | __Relay Information Document__ | ❌ __Missing__ | ✅ __Supported__ | __High Priority.__ Crucial for client-side relay discovery and capability checking. A function to fetch and parse this JSON is needed. | | __NIP-21__ | __`nostr:` URI Scheme__ | ❌ __Missing__ | ✅ __Supported__ | __Medium Priority.__ Useful for linking to profiles, events, etc. from outside Nostr clients. We should add parsing and generation functions. | | __NIP-57__| __Lightning Zaps__ | ❌ __Missing__ | ✅ __Supported__ | __High Priority.__ Zaps are a cornerstone of value-for-value on Nostr. We need functions to create and verify zap request events (Kind 9734) and zap receipt events (Kind 9735). |
+### 1. Create Test Suite `tests/nip01_validation_test.c` (FIRST - Test-Driven Development)
+- [x] Use `nak` command line tool to generate valid test events
+- [x] Create test vectors with known valid events
+- [x] Test valid event validation (should pass)
+- [x] Test invalid structure cases:
+  - Missing required fields
+  - Wrong field types
+  - Invalid hex string lengths
+  - Invalid timestamps
+  - Invalid kind values
+  - Invalid tag structures
+- [x] Test invalid cryptographic cases:
+  - Wrong event ID
+  - Invalid signature
+  - Mismatched pubkey
+- [x] Test edge cases and boundary conditions
+- [x] Follow TESTS POLICY: Show expected vs actual values, print full JSON events

---
+### 2. Add Error Codes to `nostr_core/nostr_common.h`
+- [x] Add validation-specific error codes after existing NIP error codes (line ~21):
+  ```c
+  #define NOSTR_ERROR_EVENT_INVALID_STRUCTURE -30
+  #define NOSTR_ERROR_EVENT_INVALID_ID -31
+  #define NOSTR_ERROR_EVENT_INVALID_PUBKEY -32
+  #define NOSTR_ERROR_EVENT_INVALID_SIGNATURE -33
+  #define NOSTR_ERROR_EVENT_INVALID_CREATED_AT -34
+  #define NOSTR_ERROR_EVENT_INVALID_KIND -35
+  #define NOSTR_ERROR_EVENT_INVALID_TAGS -36
+  #define NOSTR_ERROR_EVENT_INVALID_CONTENT -37
+  ```

-### __Tier 2: Advanced & Ecosystem NIPs (Expanding Capabilities)__
+### 3. Update Error String Function in `nostr_core/nostr_common.c`
+- [ ] Add cases for new error codes in `nostr_strerror()` function

-These features enable more complex interactions and integrations.
+### 4. Add Function Declarations to `nostr_core/nip001.h`
+- [x] Add validation function declarations after existing function:
+  ```c
+  // Event validation functions
+  int nostr_validate_event_structure(cJSON* event);
+  int nostr_verify_event_signature(cJSON* event);
+  int nostr_validate_event(cJSON* event);
+  ```

-| NIP | Description | `nostr_core_lib` Status | `nak` / `nostr-tools` Status | Recommendation | | :-- | :--- | :--- | :--- | :--- | | __NIP-25__ | __Reactions__ | ❌ __Missing__ | ✅ __Supported__ | __Medium Priority.__ Relatively simple to implement (Kind 7 events) and common in social clients. | | __NIP-26__ | __Delegated Event Signing__| ❌ __Missing__| ✅ __Supported__| __Medium Priority.__ Allows for one key to authorize another to sign events, useful for temporary or restricted keys. | | __NIP-44__ | __Versioned Encryption (v2)__ | ❌ __Missing__ | ✅ __Supported__ | __High Priority (along with NIP-04).__ Newer standard for encryption. We should aim to support both, but prioritize NIP-44 for new applications. | | __NIP-46__ | __Nostr Connect (Remote Signing)__| ❌ __Missing__ | ✅ __Supported__ | __Low Priority (for C library).__ More of an application-level concern, but we could provide structures and helpers to facilitate communication with signing "bunkers". | | __NIP-47__ | __Nostr Wallet Connect__ | ❌ __Missing__ | ✅ __Supported__| __Low Priority (for C library).__ Similar to NIP-46, this is primarily for app-level integration, but helpers would be valuable. | | __NIP-58__ | __Badges__ | ❌ __Missing__ | ✅ __Supported__ | __Medium Priority.__ Defines how to award and display badges (Kind 30008/30009 events). | | __NIP-94__ | __File Metadata__ | ❌ __Missing__ | ✅ __Supported__| __Medium Priority.__ For events that reference external files (images, videos), providing metadata like hashes and URLs. | | __NIP-98__ | __HTTP Auth__| ❌ __Missing__ | ✅ __Supported__| __High Priority.__ Allows services to authenticate users via a Nostr event, a powerful tool for integrating Nostr identity with web services. |
+### 5. Implement Functions in `nostr_core/nip001.c`
+- [ ] **`nostr_validate_event_structure()`** - Structure validation:
+  - Check required fields exist: id, pubkey, created_at, kind, tags, content, sig
+  - Validate field types (strings, numbers, arrays)
+  - Validate hex string formats (id: 64 chars, pubkey: 64 chars, sig: 128 chars)
+  - Validate created_at is valid timestamp
+  - Validate kind is valid integer (0-65535)
+  - Validate tags is array of string arrays
+  - Validate content is string

---
+- [ ] **`nostr_verify_event_signature()`** - Cryptographic verification:
+  - Generate serialized event string: `[0,<pubkey>,<created_at>,<kind>,<tags>,<content>]`
+  - Calculate SHA-256 hash of serialized event
+  - Convert hash to hex string and compare with event.id
+  - Verify Schnorr signature using existing `nostr_schnorr_verify()` from utils.h
+  - Use hex conversion functions from utils.h

-### __Tier 3: Specialized & Less Common NIPs (Future Considerations)__
+- [ ] **`nostr_validate_event()`** - Complete validation:
+  - Call `nostr_validate_event_structure()` first
+  - If structure valid, call `nostr_verify_event_signature()`
+  - Return appropriate error codes

-| NIP | Description | `nostr_core_lib` Status | `nak` / `nostr-tools` Status | Recommendation | | :-- | :--- | :--- | :--- | :--- | | __NIP-18__| __Reposts__ | ❌ __Missing__ | ✅ __Supported__| __Low Priority.__ Simple to implement (Kind 6 events) but less critical than other features. | | __NIP-28__| __Public Chat Channels__| ❌ __Missing__ | ✅ __Supported__| __Low Priority.__ Defines event kinds for creating and managing public chat channels. | | __NIP-39__| __External Identities__ | ❌ __Missing__ | ✅ __Supported__| __Low Priority.__ For linking a Nostr profile to identities on other platforms like GitHub or Twitter. | | __NIP-42__ | __Relay Authentication__ | ❌ __Missing__| ✅ __Supported__| __Medium Priority.__ For paid relays or those requiring login. Essential for interacting with the full relay ecosystem. | | __NIP-43__| __Musig2 (Multisig)__ | ❌ __Missing__ | ✅ __Supported__| __Low Priority.__ A very powerful but niche feature. Complex to implement correctly. |
+### 6. Update Build System
+- [ ] Ensure new test compiles with existing build.sh
+- [ ] Test compilation of all new code

---
+### 7. Integration Testing
+- [ ] Test with real Nostr events from network
+- [ ] Test with events created by existing `nostr_create_and_sign_event()`
+- [ ] Verify compatibility with existing relay functions

-### __Proposed Roadmap__
+## Technical Implementation Details

-Based on this analysis, I recommend the following roadmap, prioritized by impact and foundational need:
+### Required Dependencies (Already Available):
+- `nostr_sha256()` from `nostr_core/utils.h`
+- `nostr_schnorr_verify()` from `nostr_core/utils.h`  
+- `nostr_hex_to_bytes()` from `nostr_core/utils.h`
+- `nostr_bytes_to_hex()` from `nostr_core/utils.h`
+- cJSON library for JSON parsing

-1. __Immediate Next Steps (High-Impact Basics):__
+### Validation Logic Based on NIP-01 and nostr-tools Reference:
+1. **Structure Validation**: Fast checks on JSON structure and basic format
+2. **Cryptographic Validation**: Expensive signature verification only after structure passes
+3. **Two-tier approach**: Allows early exit on malformed events

-   - __Implement NIP-04 & NIP-44:__ Encrypted messaging is a huge gap.
-   - __Implement NIP-11:__ Fetching and parsing relay info documents.
-   - __Implement NIP-05:__ DNS-based name verification.
-   - __Implement NIP-57:__ Create and verify Zap events.
-   - __Implement NIP-98:__ HTTP Auth for web services.
+### Error Handling Strategy:
+- Return specific error codes for different validation failures
+- Enable caller to understand exactly what failed
+- Maintain consistency with existing error code patterns

-2. __Phase 2 (Ecosystem & Social Features):__
+## Files to Modify:
+- `nostr_core/nostr_common.h` (add error codes)
+- `nostr_core/nostr_common.c` (update error strings)
+- `nostr_core/nip001.h` (add function declarations)
+- `nostr_core/nip001.c` (implement functions)
+- `tests/nip01_validation_test.c` (create new file)

-   - __Implement NIP-25:__ Reactions.
-   - __Implement NIP-26:__ Delegation.
-   - __Implement NIP-42:__ Relay Authentication.
-   - __Implement NIP-21:__ `nostr:` URI handling.
-   - __Implement NIP-58:__ Badges.
-
-3. __Phase 3 (Advanced & Specialized Features):__
-
-   - __Implement NIP-18:__ Reposts.
-   - __Implement NIP-43:__ Musig2 (this is a big one).
-   - Add helpers for NIP-07, NIP-46, and NIP-47.
-
-What are your thoughts on this assessment and proposed roadmap? We can adjust the priorities based on your goals for the library. Once we have a plan you're happy with, I can start implementing the first features when you're ready to switch to

-Act Mode (⌘⇧A).
+## Testing Priority:
+1. Structure validation with malformed events
+2. Cryptographic validation with tampered events  
+3. Valid event validation end-to-end
+4. Integration with existing event creation functions
+5. Performance testing with large numbers of events
