 Recent releases derive passwords and other artifacts using a fully deterministic algorithm that behaves consistently across Python versions. This improvement means artifacts generated with earlier versions of SeedPass will not match those produced now. Regenerate any previously derived data or retain the old version if you need to reproduce older passwords or keys.
 
+**⚠️ First Run Warning**
+
+Use a dedicated BIP-39 seed phrase exclusively for SeedPass. Offline Mode is **ON by default**, keeping all Nostr syncing disabled until you explicitly opt in.

 # SeedPass Specification
 
+## Key Hierarchy
+
+SeedPass derives a hierarchy of keys from a single BIP-39 parent seed using HKDF:
+
+- **Master Key** – `HKDF(seed, "seedpass:v1:master")`
+- **KEY_STORAGE** – used to encrypt vault data.
+- **KEY_INDEX** – protects the metadata index.
+- **KEY_PW_DERIVE** – deterministic password generation.
+- **KEY_TOTP_DET** – deterministic TOTP secrets.
+
+Each context string keeps derived keys domain separated.
+
+## KDF Parameters
+
+Passwords are protected with **PBKDF2-HMAC-SHA256**. The default work factor is
+**50,000 iterations** but may be adjusted via the settings slider. The config
+stores a `KdfConfig` structure with the chosen iteration count, algorithm name,
+and the current spec version (`CURRENT_KDF_VERSION = 1`). Argon2 is available
+with a default `time_cost` of 2 when selected.
+
+## Message Formats
+
+SeedPass synchronizes profiles over Nostr using three event kinds:
+
+- **Manifest (`30070`)** – high level snapshot description and current version.
+- **Snapshot Chunk (`30071`)** – compressed, encrypted portions of the vault.
+- **Delta (`30072`)** – incremental changes since the last snapshot.
+
+Events encode JSON and include tags for checksums, fingerprints, and timestamps.
+
+## Versioning
+
+Configuration and KDF schemas are versioned so clients can migrate older
+profiles. Nostr events carry a version field in the manifest, and the software
+follows semantic versioning for releases.
+
 ## Memory Protection
 
-SeedPass encrypts sensitive values in memory and attempts to wipe them when no longer needed. This zeroization is best-effort only; Python's memory management may retain copies of decrypted data. Critical cryptographic operations may move to a Rust/WASM module in the future to provide stronger guarantees.
