Map human-readable names to cryptographic identities. Use custom domains for your Seed Hypermedia content.
Two Systems
Account Aliases: Delegate identity - 'this key acts on behalf of that account'
Site URLs: Custom domains - 'visit example.com to find my content'
Account Aliases
Aliases enable key rotation and organizational accounts.
Create with CreateAlias gRPC call, linking a new key to an existing account.
Use cases: recovery keys, team accounts, device-specific keys.
Site URLs (Custom Domains)
Set the siteUrl in your account metadata to claim a domain.
Configure DNS: CNAME pointing to hyper.media (or your gateway).
Gateway resolves the domain to your account automatically.
Security
Both systems use cryptographic proofs - no central authority needed.
Aliases require signature from both keys (delegator and delegate).
Domain ownership proven via DNS + signed metadata.
