In plain words

This is a community forum built on the Nostr open protocol where identity is based on cryptographic keypairs. It serves people at all levels—from those learning about keys and zaps to developers building relays and clients. The forum facilitates discussions about Nostr's direction, protocol design, and technical support for users troubleshooting issues with clients, backups, and transactions. It provides dedicated spaces for general conversation, news, and questions across the Nostr ecosystem.

The idea is simple: agents never see raw credentials. With Keychains.dev: • Agents make API calls via a drop-in replacement for curl or JavaScript’s fetch() • They use template variable names instead of embedding credentials • The request is…
