Jeff Emmett f0b1096404 Initial research and POC scaffolding for Fileverse + rStack integration 
Research docs covering crypto comparison (@fileverse/crypto vs MIT primitives vs
rSpace DocCrypto), Y.js vs Automerge architecture decision, and phased integration
plan. POC scaffolding includes MIT crypto primitives library with ECIES key exchange,
benchmark suite, collab-server Docker Compose for Netcup deployment, and placeholder
structures for IPFS storage and dSheet embed.

IPFS File Storage POC

Proof-of-concept for encrypted file uploads to IPFS, replacing centralized storage for rNotes.

Flow

1. User picks file in TipTap editor
2. Client generates per-file symmetric key
3. Client encrypts file with AES-256-GCM
4. Encrypted blob uploaded to IPFS (via Pinata or self-hosted kubo)
5. CID + encrypted file key stored in Automerge document metadata
6. To view: fetch CID → decrypt with file key → display

Setup

# Using Pinata (managed IPFS pinning)
# Store API keys in Infisical: infisical-project=fileverse, path=/ipfs
export PINATA_API_KEY=...
export PINATA_SECRET_KEY=...

npm install
npm run test

Files

  • src/ipfs-client.ts — Upload/download encrypted files to IPFS
  • src/tiptap-image-extension.ts — TipTap extension for IPFS-backed images
  • src/test.ts — End-to-end test: encrypt → upload → download → decrypt

Status

Not started — waiting on Phase 1 crypto evaluation results.
