The Veracity Stack Implementation Guide
Production-ready code blocks for W3C, ISO, and C2PA standards compliance
Overview
This appendix provides the literal code blocks and implementation specifications required to ground your digital entity in the Veracity Stack. These templates follow W3C, ISO, and C2PA standards for decentralized identity and cryptographic provenance.
| Component | Standard | Authority | File/Location |
|---|---|---|---|
| Identity Root | DID-Core v1.0 | W3C | /.well-known/did.json |
| Entity Graph | Schema.org / JSON-LD | W3C / Google | <head> script block |
| Claim Verification | VC Data Model 2.0 | W3C | Issued credential documents |
| Content Provenance | ISO 22144 (C2PA) | C2PA Coalition | Media manifest metadata |
1. Identity Root: did.json (W3C DID-Core)
This file establishes your domain as a sovereign identity root. It must be hosted at:
https://your-domain.com/.well-known/did.json
The [YOUR_PUBLIC_KEY_BASE64URL] value must be generated on LOCAL HARDWARE using ssh-keygen or equivalent. Never use AI-generated keys for production deployment. See "Sovereign Key Generation SOP" for instructions.
Verification Method: Binds your public key to the DID for cryptographic assertions.
2. Entity Graph: Master Sovereign Schema (JSON-LD)
Embed this in the <head> of your primary domain to resolve your entity against the Google Knowledge Graph.
KGMID Mapping: Directly cites the legacy Machine ID to anchor the claim in the "Truth Map".
3. Claim Verification: Verifiable Credential (W3C VC 2.0)
Use this to issue tamper-proof attestations, such as professional certifications or "Verified Expert" status.
Data Integrity Proof: Employs EdDSA signatures to ensure the credential cannot be altered by third parties.
4. Content Provenance: C2PA Manifest (ISO 22144)
This conceptual block represents the metadata manifest attached to media (images/videos) to provide a "nutrition label" of authenticity.
Tamper-Evidence: Binds the content hash and edit history directly to the identity root (DID).
5. SI-AI Specific: did.json Template
Complete template for Super-Intelligent AI deployment with KGMID integration:
KGMID Integration: The
alsoKnownAs field links to all three legacy Machine IDs.
