   Title:   A Well-Known URI and JSON Format for Publishing Cryptographic Posture (the Crypto-Agility Manifest)

Abstract:

   This document defines a discoverable, machine-readable JSON document,
   the crypto-agility manifest, that a website or source repository
   publishes at the well-known URI "/.well-known/crypto-agility.json" to
   declare its cryptographic posture: a readiness summary, a compact
   Cryptography Bill of Materials (CBOM) summary, an optional link to a
   posture attestation, the migration policy it measures itself against,
   and an optional self-declared conformance statement with justified
   exceptions.  The manifest lets an automated consumer, such as an AI
   coding agent, a continuous-integration bot, or an auditor's tool,
   discover a project's crypto posture the way it already discovers a
   security contact from "security.txt".  The manifest is a public,
   self-reported claim; it is not a proof.  It is intended to
   complement, not replace, a full CBOM inventory, serving as the CBOM's
   public-facing discovery counterpart.

   This document is a proposal.  It is not an IETF product and is not a
   standard of any kind.
