# NIP Compliance Report (2026-02-18)

## Executive Summary
This run focused on closing the compliance gap for **NIP-65 (Relay List Metadata)**, identified as a P0 priority. A new regression test suite `tests/nostr-specs/nip65_compliance.test.mjs` was created to verify `relayManager.js` behavior against Kind 10002 specifications. The test confirms correct parsing of relay tags (including read/write markers) and correct event building.

## Changes
- **NIP-65**: Status upgraded from `Partial` to `Compliant`.
- **Tests**: Added `tests/nostr-specs/nip65_compliance.test.mjs`.

## Compliance Status (Snapshot)
- **Compliant**: NIP-01, NIP-04, NIP-07, NIP-10, NIP-17, NIP-19, NIP-33, NIP-44, NIP-46, NIP-51, NIP-56, NIP-57, NIP-59, NIP-65, NIP-78, NIP-94, NIP-98, NIP-25, NIP-47.
- **Partial**: NIP-09 (Event Deletion - incomplete Kind 5), NIP-71 (Video Events - mixed Kind 30078/21/22), NIP-96 (HTTP File Storage).
- **Unknown**: NIP-21 (URI Scheme), NIP-42 (Auth).

## Next Steps
- **NIP-42 (Auth)**: Verify authentication flow (RELAY AUTH).
- **NIP-96**: Investigate HTTP File Storage integration status.
- **NIP-71**: Clarify path forward for standard vs legacy video kinds.
