--- name: self-xyz description: "Integrate Self (self.xyz) — a privacy-first identity protocol using zero-knowledge proofs to verify passports and ID cards. Use when the user mentions Self protocol, Self identity, self.xyz, passport verification, zero-knowledge identity verification, SelfAppBuilder, SelfBackendVerifier, SelfVerificationRoot, or wants to add privacy-preserving KYC, age verification, nationality checks, OFAC screening, or Sybil resistance using real-world identity documents. Covers frontend QR code integration, backend proof verification, and on-chain smart contract verification on Celo." --- # Self Protocol Integration Self lets users prove identity attributes (age, nationality, humanity) from passports/ID cards using zero-knowledge proofs — no personal data exposed. Users scan their document's NFC chip in the Self mobile app and share a zk proof with your app. ## Quick Start (Next.js Off-Chain) ### 1. Install ```bash npm install @selfxyz/qrcode @selfxyz/core ``` ### 2. Frontend — QR Code Component ```tsx "use client"; import { SelfQRcodeWrapper, SelfAppBuilder } from "@selfxyz/qrcode"; export default function VerifyIdentity({ userId }: { userId: string }) { const selfApp = new SelfAppBuilder({ appName: "My App", scope: "my-app-scope", endpoint: "https://yourapp.com/api/verify", endpointType: "https", userId, userIdType: "hex", disclosures: { minimumAge: 18, }, }).build(); return ( <SelfQRcodeWrapper selfApp={selfApp} onSuccess={() => console.log("Verified")} type="websocket" darkMode={false} /> ); } ``` ### 3. Backend — Verification Endpoint ```ts // app/api/verify/route.ts import { SelfBackendVerifier, DefaultConfigStore } from "@selfxyz/core"; export async function POST(req: Request) { const { proof, publicSignals } = await req.json(); const verifier = new SelfBackendVerifier( "my-app-scope", // must match frontend scope "https://yourapp.com/api/verify", // must match frontend endpoint true, // true = accept mock passports (dev only) null, // allowedIds (null = all) new DefaultConfigStore({ // must match frontend disclosures minimumAge: 18, }) ); const result = await verifier.verify(proof, publicSignals); return Response.json({ verified: result.isValid, nationality: result.credentialSubject?.nationality, }); } ``` ## Integration Patterns | Pattern | When to Use | `endpoint` | `endpointType` | |---------|------------|------------|----------------| | **Off-chain** (backend) | Web apps, APIs, most cases | Your API URL | `"https"` or `"https-staging"` | | **On-chain** (contract) | DeFi, token gating, airdrops | Contract address (lowercase) | `"celo"` or `"celo-staging"` | | **Deep linking** | Mobile-first flows | Your API URL | `"https"` | - **Off-chain**: Fastest to implement. Proof sent to your backend, verified server-side. - **On-chain**: Proof verified by Celo smart contract. Inherit `SelfVerificationRoot`. Use for trustless/permissionless scenarios. - **Deep linking**: For mobile users — opens Self app directly instead of QR scan. See `references/frontend.md`. ## Critical Gotchas 1. **Config matching is mandatory** — Frontend `disclosures` must EXACTLY match backend/contract verification config. Mismatched age thresholds, country lists, or OFAC settings cause silent failures. 2. **Contract addresses must be lowercase** — Non-checksum format in frontend `endpoint`. Use `.toLowerCase()`. 3. **Country codes are ISO 3-letter** — e.g., `"USA"`, `"IRN"`, `"PRK"`. Max 40 countries in exclusion lists. 4. **Mock passports = testnet only** — Set `mockPassport: true` in backend / use `"celo-staging"` endpoint type. Real passports require mainnet. To create a mock passport: open Self app, tap the Passport button **5 times**. Mock testing requires OFAC disabled. 5. **Version requirement** — `@selfxyz/core` >= 1.1.0-beta.1. 6. **Attestation IDs** — `1` = Passport, `2` = Biometric ID Card. Must explicitly allow via `allowedIds` map. 7. **Scope uniqueness** — On-chain, scope is Poseidon-hashed with contract address, preventing cross-contract proof replay. 8. **Endpoint must be publicly accessible** — Self app sends proof directly to your endpoint. Use ngrok for local development. 9. **Common errors**: `ScopeMismatch` = scope/address mismatch or non-lowercase address. `Invalid 'to' Address` = wrong `endpointType` (celo vs https). `InvalidIdentityCommitmentRoot` = real passport on testnet (use mainnet). `Invalid Config ID` = mock passport on mainnet (use testnet). ## Deployed Contracts (Celo) | Network | Address | |---------|---------| | **Mainnet** Hub V2 | [REDACTED_SECRET] | | **Sepolia** Hub V2 | [REDACTED_SECRET] | | **Sepolia Staging** Hub V2 | [REDACTED_SECRET] | ## References Load these for deeper integration details: - **`references/frontend.md`** — `SelfAppBuilder` full config, `SelfQRcodeWrapper` props, deep linking with `getUniversalLink`, disclosure options - **`references/backend.md`** — `SelfBackendVerifier` constructor details, `DefaultConfigStore` vs `InMemoryConfigStore`, verification result schema, dynamic configs - **`references/contracts.md`** — `SelfVerificationRoot` inheritance pattern, Hub V2 interaction, `setVerificationConfigV2`, `customVerificationHook`, `getConfigId`, `userDefinedData` patterns
