keep frost network dkg could not complete. It used --group both to load the per-group subkey, which group-subkey enrolls under the group name, and as the group id that fetches the signed roster, which is a hash over that name and every participant's subkey. No value satisfies both, so the command failed with either "no per-group signing subkey enrolled" or "no group announcement found".

  • dkg takes a new required --group-id, the id group-create prints. It fetches and pins the roster by that id and tags the DKG rounds with it, as the mobile app does. --group stays the name the participant enrolled its subkey under, and names the stored share.
  • group-create --publish prints the dkg command participants run next.
  • docs/USAGE.md describes the actual ceremony (group-subkey, group-create --publish, dkg --group-id); the previous example used --hardware, which the CLI refuses.
  • The roster-not-found error names kind 31101, the kind actually published.

Tests: a new CLI test runs the full ceremony against an in-process relay with three vaults under different local group names, and checks all three finish with the same group key; it fails with the roster fetched by --group. The same ceremony also completes over a local relay with the built binary.

Summary by CodeRabbit

  • New Features
    • Distributed software DKG now uses a signed participant roster and a shared Group ID. The CLI displays a participant command with the Group ID after publishing the roster.
    • The DKG command now takes the enrolled group name and Group ID separately.
  • Documentation
    • Updated setup instructions to describe the three-step enrollment, roster, and DKG workflow. Hardware DKG over relays is not yet supported.

Walkthrough

The DKG CLI now requires a group name and a separate Group ID. The software runner validates and uses the Group ID for roster lookup and DKG coordination. The documentation and integration test describe and exercise the updated participant workflow.

Changes

FROST DKG Group ID Flow

Layer / File(s) Summary
CLI contract and dispatch
keep-cli/src/cli.rs, keep-cli/src/main.rs, keep-cli/src/commands/frost_network/dkg.rs
The DKG command adds a required Group ID option and forwards it to the software DKG runner alongside the group name.
Group ID validation and DKG flow
keep-cli/src/commands/frost_network/dkg.rs, docs/USAGE.md, keep-frost-net/src/dkg.rs
The runner validates the Group ID as 32 decoded bytes, normalizes it to lowercase hex, and uses it for roster lookup and DKG coordination. The CLI displays the ID and prints a participant command after publishing the announcement. The instructions describe subkey enrollment, roster publication, and DKG with the Group ID. Kind references identify announcements as kind 31101.
Multi-participant DKG verification
keep-cli/tests/cli_integration.rs
The integration test enrolls three subkeys, publishes a 2-of-3 roster, runs DKG for all three participants, and checks that their group public keys match.

The new DKG flow should work as described. Participants who use a different default relay may hit a roster-not-found error from the printed command, and one documentation sentence overstates the pinning guarantee. Both are small follow-ups.

A rabbit checks the group ID twice,
Then hops where roster bytes reside.
Three vaults join the DKG dance,
Their public keys align in stance.
The relay hums; the bunnies cheer!

instructions to include the published roster relay when available, or explicitly
tell participants to pass that relay with --relay, so roster lookup uses the
coordinator’s relay.
