Christian Nennemann 884d2dc836 feat: migrate refimpls from draft-00 to draft-01 claim names
- Rename `par` to `pred` (predecessor) in types, serialization, tests
- Remove `pol`, `pol_decision` from core payload; move to `ect_ext`
- Remove `sub` from payload (not part of ECT spec)
- Update `typ` from `wimse-exec+jwt` to `exec+jwt` (accept both)
- Rename MaxParLength to MaxPredLength everywhere
- Update testdata, demos, READMEs with migration table
- All Go tests pass, all 56 Python tests pass (90% coverage)

# WIMSE ECT — Python Reference Implementation
Python reference implementation of [Execution Context Tokens (ECTs)](../../draft-nennemann-wimse-execution-context-01.txt) for WIMSE. Implements ECT creation (ES256), verification (Section 7), DAG validation (Section 6), and an in-memory audit ledger (Section 9).
## Layout

## Install
```bash
cd refimpl/python && pip install -e .
```
## Usage
```python
from ect import (
Payload,
create,
generate_key,
CreateOptions,
verify,
VerifyOptions,
MemoryLedger,
)
cfg = load_config_from_env()
key = generate_key()
payload = Payload(
iss="spiffe://example.com/agent/a",
aud=["spiffe://example.com/agent/b"],
iat=int(time.time()),
exp=int(time.time()) + 600,
jti="550e8400-e29b-41d4-a716-446655440000",
exec_act="review_spec",
pred=[],
ext={
"pol": "policy_v1",
"pol_decision": "approved",
},
)
compact = create(payload, key, cfg.create_options("agent-a-key"))
store = MemoryLedger()
opts = cfg.verify_options()
opts.verifier_id = "spiffe://example.com/agent/b"
opts.resolve_key = lambda kid: key.public_key() if kid == "agent-a-key" else None
opts.store = store
parsed = verify(compact, opts)
store.append(compact, parsed.payload)
```
## Demo
```bash
cd refimpl/python && python3 demo.py
```
## Tests
```bash
cd refimpl/python && python3 -m pytest tests/ -v
```
Unit tests require **90% coverage** minimum (`pytest` is configured with `--cov-fail-under=90` in `pyproject.toml`). Install dev deps: `pip install -e ".[dev]"`. Uncovered lines are mainly abstract base methods and a few verify branches that need manually built tokens.
## draft-01 claim changes
| -00 (previous) | -01 (current) | Notes |
|----------------|---------------|-------|
| `par` | `pred` | Predecessor task IDs |
| `pol`, `pol_decision` | removed (use `ect_ext`) | Policy claims moved to extension object |
| `sub` | not defined | Standard JWT claim, not part of ECT spec |
| `typ: wimse-exec+jwt` | `typ: exec+jwt` (preferred) | Both accepted for backward compat |
| `max_par_length` | `max_pred_length` | Renamed to match `pred` claim |
## Production configuration (environment)
Same env vars as the Go refimpl: `ECT_IAT_MAX_AGE_MINUTES`, `ECT_IAT_MAX_FUTURE_SEC`, `ECT_DEFAULT_EXPIRY_MIN`, `ECT_JTI_REPLAY_CACHE_SIZE`, `ECT_JTI_REPLAY_TTL_MIN`.
### Replay cache (multi-instance)
The provided JTI cache is in-memory only. For multiple verifier instances, use a shared store (Redis, DB) and pass a `jti_seen` callable that checks/records JTIs there. See refimpl/README for an overview.
## Dependencies
- PyJWT, cryptography (ES256).
## License
Same as the Internet-Draft (IETF Trust). Code under Revised BSD per BCP 78/79.
