User feedback was that my first Cloud HSM pass had three architectural
weaknesses: (1) per-provider top-level kinds vs a single cloud_hsm
discriminator, (2) SA-JSON-in-KMS auth pattern, (3) missing first-class
algorithm + structured error codes. Plus the orthogonal point that for
bridge.lux.network specifically the right topology is m-chain (native
MPC) + optional f-chain (FHE attestation) and NO external cosigners.
This commit applies all of that.
SDK (@luxfi/bridge 1.0.4 → 1.0.5):
- BridgeCloudHsmConfig — single, uniform shape:
provider: 'gcp_kms' | 'aws_kms' | 'azure_key_vault' | 'vault_transit'
keyRef: <self-describing per-provider URI form>
algorithm: 'secp256k1_ecdsa_sha256' | 'ed25519' | 'rsa_pss_sha256'
identityHint?: <non-secret workload-identity scope hint>
Replaces the three separate gcpKms / awsKms / azureKv blocks from
the first pass. Tenants layer multiple HSMs via the cloudHsm array
on BridgeMPCConfig.
- BridgeFChainConfig — Lux Network native FHE attestation:
publicUrl: <f-chain cluster URL>
scheme?: 'ckks' | 'bgv' | 'bfv'
Lives alongside m-chain on the Lux primary network. Cosigns the
same txHash that m-chain signed via FHE-secured key material so
the message never crosses a plaintext threshold quorum. PQ-safe.
- Wire shape (bridge-api.ts CosignerIntent) collapses the three
cloud_hsm variants into one canonical record with the provider
sub-discriminator. Adds the fchain wire kind.
- useTransfers iterates cfg.mpc.cloudHsm[] + emits the optional
fchain intent.
Backend (app/server):
- CloudSigner interface matches user's exact spec:
readonly provider: CloudHsmProvider
sign(input: CloudSignInput): Promise<CloudSignResult>
where CloudSignInput / CloudSignResult carry the structured metadata
(keyRef, digest, algorithm, identityHint, requestId / signature,
publicKeyRef, provider, keyVersion, signedAt).
- CloudSignerError class with stable CloudSignerErrorCode union:
permission_denied | key_not_found | key_disabled
→ maps to CosignResult.status = 'rejected'
algorithm_mismatch | invalid_digest
→ maps to 'rejected' (terminal config errors)
rate_limited | network_error | provider_unavailable
→ maps to 'failed' (retryable infra errors)
statusForErrorCode() does the mapping; the dispatcher never has to
string-match on error messages again.
- Real GCP CKMS adapter:
✅ Workload-identity ONLY (no SA-JSON-in-KMS fallback). The
backend trusts the cloud's native identity layer.
✅ identityHint is non-secret context, not credentials.
✅ Algorithm allow-list — only secp256k1_ecdsa_sha256 wired today;
ed25519 / rsa_pss_sha256 reject early with algorithm_mismatch.
✅ Error mapping covers gRPC codes 5/7/8/9/14/16 + string
fallbacks. mapGcpError centralizes it.
- AWS KMS / Azure Key Vault / Vault Transit adapters are stubs that
return CloudSignerError 'provider_unavailable' with a clear marker.
Each stub has a full implementation sketch in comments so the next
dev (or me, next session) drops in @aws-sdk/client-kms / etc. and
wires through cleanly.
- f-chain (FHE attestation) stub — waiting on @luxfi/fchain workspace.
- Persistence: cloud_hsm rows persist as 'cloud_hsm:<provider>' in
CosignerStep.kind to avoid a Prisma migration. public_id = key_ref;
api_host = identity_hint; vault_id = algorithm. rowToIntent inverts
cleanly. First schema migration round will split into dedicated
columns; the compound kind is a stable round-trippable hack.
Tests: 77/77 passing.
pkg/bridge: 58/58 (unchanged)
app/server: 16 validator (now covers all 4 cloud providers + fchain)
+ 10 Fireblocks
+ 13 Utila
+ 7 persistence
+ 19 GCP KMS + Cloud HSM stubs + fchain
+ 12 new cloud-HSM validator cases
Lux Network topology (bridge.lux.network and all Lux-branded tenants):
- Primary: m-chain (native CGGMP21 / FROST threshold MPC)
- Optional: f-chain (FHE attestation, also native to Lux)
- NO external cosigners (Utila / Fireblocks / Cloud HSM) by default
- These cosigner blocks exist on BridgeMPCConfig for white-label
tenants whose policy requires institutional / cloud-HSM cosign.
