openvibers/openvibe.news Commits

News on the service kit (plan T1): sign-in is openvibe-sdk/sso createSsoClient (state + PKCE S256, server-side exchange, next limited to this site and the Network), service tokens are checked by openvibe-sdk/auth verifyServiceToken (the key their kid names), the outbox is createServiceOutbox; server/auth/sso.js and server/events/outbox.js are deleted. Pins: openvibe-sdk v0.25.0, openvibe-contracts v0.79.0, openvibe-shared v2.0.0. Both suites green (verified).
