Hey fiatjaf, I’m digging through khatru, cool stuff. I’m confused how botj read only and read/write permissions can be set with NIP-86 Authed pubkeys for a relay if the API only has one Allowed Pubkeys list? Any help would be appreciated, thanks.

You have to interpret the instructions depending on your context. Khatru doesn't have an "allowed pubkeys list", that must be defined specifically by your relay implementation.

AFAIK, this is done by sending a NIP-42 ephemeral event. Regular HTTP auth DOES NOT WORK over nostr, because there is no server side to verify credentials. NIP-42 is how relays can dynamically authent...

Thanks! I took a look and it and definitely in line with what I’m looking to do. Probably have to make a relay specific implementation to distinguish permissions amongst pubkeys.

Hm, there are already some client auth techs on the session level, like TLS for example, or http-auth. But yes, private relays totally make sense.

What is the most efficient way to manage read access permissions on a relay? nostr:npub180cvv07tjdrrgpa0j7j7tmnyl2yr6yr7l8j4s3evf6u64th6gkwsyjh6w6

Is there or will there be a way for nostr relays to whitelist/blacklist read access? Relays can restrict write access but what about read access? Thinking about making subscription ids signed by a private key and then the nostr relay checks against whitelisted public keys and rejects unverified subscriptions. Could also use auth server. #AskNostr
