AirGap Time Contract — AIRGAP-TIME-CONTRACT-1501
Date: 2025-11-24 Owners: AirGap Time Guild · Mirror Creator Guild Scope: Define time-anchor fields and freshness calculation for mirror bundles used by air-gapped imports (Excititor/ExportCenter/CLI).
Contract
- Fields (mirror manifest root):
generatedAt: ISO-8601 UTC timestamp when manifest was produced.sourceClock: optional string describing clock source (e.g.,ntp:chrony,hw:tcxo).validForSeconds: optional TTL; if absent, default freshness budget = 24h.- Staleness computation: stalenessSeconds =
nowUtc - generatedAt; import rejects when stalenessSeconds >validForSeconds(or 24h default) plus ±5s skew. - Determinism: timestamps in
generatedAtrounded to whole milliseconds; no leap-second smoothing; manifests sorted bypath. - Surface mapping: Excititor airgap import records store
generatedAtand computedstalenessSeconds; timeline events include staleness for Advisory AI.
Actions
- Mirror Creator Guild: include
generatedAt,sourceClock,validForSecondsin thin/portable manifests; align with DSSE header from MIRROR-DSSE-REV-1501. - ExportCenter: propagate fields into portable bundle notifications.
- CLI: display staleness budget and remaining seconds on
stella airgap import --describe.
Risks/Notes
- If ExportCenter manifest v1.1 renames fields, keep aliases for older bundles.
- Offline installs rely on hardware clock accuracy; recommend chrony sync during bundle generation; import side only trusts manifest timestamp.
