Are Reticulum addresses unique?

Yes. With 128-bit hashes, the probability of a collision is negligible, even in networks with billions of active destinations.

How does Reticulum calculate a destination hash?

It uses a truncated SHA-256 hash (16 bytes). For SINGLE destinations, it combines a name hash derived from the app name/aspects with the recipient's identity hash.

What is the purpose of a LINK destination?

A LINK is an established, bidirectional encrypted channel between two nodes that provides reliable delivery and forward secrecy via ephemeral keys.

What is a Reticulum destination?

A destination is a 128-bit location-independent hash used for addressing and routing in the Reticulum Network Stack, replacing traditional IP addresses and ports.

How are SINGLE and GROUP destinations different?

SINGLE destinations use asymmetric encryption (public keys) for one-to-one communication, while GROUP destinations use symmetric AES-256 keys shared among multiple participants.

Security & Testing

Manages and implements Reticulum's location-independent addressing system and cryptographic destination types.

This skill provides Claude with comprehensive knowledge of the Reticulum Network Stack's addressing architecture, enabling the implementation of 128-bit cryptographic destination hashes, hierarchical naming conventions, and secure communication patterns. It is an essential resource for developers building decentralized, peer-to-peer applications that require identity-based routing, forward secrecy, and various encryption modes (SINGLE, GROUP, PLAIN, and LINK) without reliance on traditional IP infrastructure.

Key Features

01Manages forward secrecy and identity binding for secure P2P communication

02Supports four distinct communication types: SINGLE, GROUP, PLAIN, and LINK

03Configures proof-of-delivery strategies including PROVE_NONE, PROVE_APP, and PROVE_ALL

04Calculates 128-bit location-independent destination hashes from identities and names

05Implements hierarchical dotted naming conventions for structured network services
