NIP-05 Identity Setup

Overview

Set up NIP-05 DNS-based identity verification so Nostr clients can map human-readable identifiers (like bob@example.com) to hex public keys. This skill covers creating the /.well-known/nostr.json endpoint, configuring CORS headers, updating kind:0 profiles, and debugging verification failures.

When to Use

• The task is setting up or troubleshooting NIP-05 identity verification for a Nostr identifier.
• The user needs help with /.well-known/nostr.json, hosting behavior, CORS, redirects, DNS/domain mapping, or profile metadata.
• The request is about getting name@domain verification to work correctly in clients.
• The problem is NIP-05 serving and verification, not broader key management.

Do NOT use when:
