Field notes
The documentation describes two P-256 key pairs, generated with WebCrypto: an issuer vouches for the agent, which signs each request with its own key. The passport form includes a validity period and selectable permissions, while the demo offers failure cases such as replayed requests and altered bodies. The page says nothing leaves the browser during passport creation; that privacy detail is a homepage claim.
