TESC Encrypted Channel

HITE encryption, TESC channels, ZeqProof, firewall primitives.

• Protocol ID — tesc-channel
• Category — Security
• Endpoint — POST /api/tesc/send
• Auth — api-key
• Rate limit — 60/min
• Version — 1.0
• Precision — ≤0.1% (KO42-enforced)

What it does

Temporal Entangled State Channel — AES-256-GCM with Phase-Locked Authentication Tags (PLATs) valid for exactly one Zeqond (0.777s). Replay impossible.

Signature

Request

POST /api/tesc/send

Param	Type	Required	Default	Description
message	string	✓	—	Message to send (max 16KB).
channelId	string		—	Channel ID. Auto-generated if omitted.

Response

{ encrypted, plat, zeqond, phase, entanglementChain, expiresAt, ttlMs }

Runnable example

curl -sS -X POST \
  -H "Authorization: Bearer $ZEQ_API_KEY" \
  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
  -d '{
  "message": "<value>",
  "channelId": "<value>"
}' \
  "https://api.zeq.dev/api/tesc/send"

Integrate

1. E2E channel — pair with HITE/TESC for encryption that locks to the HulyaPulse.
2. Integrity stamp — hash-bind every message to its Zeqond for replay-resistant audit.
3. Key rotation — tie rotation windows to pulse multiples for deterministic policy.

Seeds

• Near — wrap /api/tesc/send in a language SDK so builders can call it in three lines.
• Medium — publish a reference integration demonstrating TESC Encrypted Channel alongside a real workload, with pulse-aligned metrics.
• Far — propose TESC Encrypted Channel as an open reference standard so other runtimes can implement it verbatim against the Zeq paper.
