A working design document for KRAM, a non-interactive method of authenticating requests signed with a KERI identifier's current key state, protecting against replay with datetime stamps and timeliness caches. It covers simple KRAM, as implemented in keripy, and a redesigned full KRAM with multi-signature support, cache types, databases and processing logic. For keripy implementers.
