quartz-integration

An integration guide for Quartz, a Kotlin Multiplatform library for Nostr, a protocol for publishing and subscribing to signed messages through relay servers.

In plain words
What is it for?
It helps add the dependency, connect to relays, create and sign events, subscribe with filters, and handle keys on JVM, Android, and iOS.
Why use it?
It gives developers the setup and usage details needed to add the library without piecing them together from source code.

Token cost

What it costs to keep this loaded

Counted locally with the o200k_base tokenizer, which is exact for GPT models; Claude uses its own tokenizer and its counts differ. Treat this as one consistent yardstick across the catalogue rather than a bill. Prices are per million input tokens.

Security

Grade A, and why

quartz-integration scanned grade A with 0 findings against 26 rules in 11 categories — prompt injection, anti-refusal, data exfiltration, privilege escalation, supply chain, agent snooping, system-prompt leakage, SSRF and excessive agency — measured yesterday.

A static scan of the body, not an audit. Every finding is printed with the line that produced it so you can judge whether it matters here. A mod is markdown that instructs an agent; that is exactly why what it instructs is worth reading.

Nothing flagged

None of the 26 patterns this scan looks for appear in this file: no shell pipes, no recursive deletes, no credential paths, no hidden text, no instruction-override or anti-refusal phrasing, no agent-config snooping. That is not a guarantee, it is the absence of the things that are checkable.

Quartz Integration Guide

Reference for integrating com.vitorpamplona.quartz:quartz into external Nostr KMP projects.

Published artifact: com.vitorpamplona.quartz:quartz:1.14.0 (Maven Central) Targets: JVM 21+, Android (minSdk 21+), iOS (XCFramework quartz-kmpKit) License: MIT


1. Gradle Setup

Version Catalog (libs.versions.toml)

[versions]
quartz = "1.14.0"

[libraries]
quartz = { module = "com.vitorpamplona.quartz:quartz", version.ref = "quartz" }

build.gradle.kts (KMP project)

kotlin {
    sourceSets {
        commonMain.dependencies {
            implementation(libs.quartz)
        }
    }
}

Android-only project

dependencies {
    implementation("com.vitorpamplona.quartz:quartz:1.14.0")
}

Transitive dependencies pulled in automatically

Quartz exposes these as api (you get them transitively):

Dependency Used for
fr.acinq.secp256k1:secp256k1-kmp-* Schnorr signing
com.github.anthonynsimon:rfc3986-normalizer Relay URL normalization
com.fasterxml.jackson.module:jackson-module-kotlin Event JSON parsing

For Android, add to build.gradle.kts:

android {
    packaging {
        resources.excludes += "/META-INF/{AL2.0,LGPL2.1}"
    }
}

2. Key Concepts

Core Types

typealias HexKey = String        // 64-char hex string (pubkey, event id, sig)
typealias Kind = Int             // Event kind number
typealias TagArray = Array<Array<String>>

Event Anatomy

@Immutable
open class Event(
    val id: HexKey,        // SHA-256 of canonical JSON (64 hex chars)
    val pubKey: HexKey,    // Author public key (64 hex chars)
    val createdAt: Long,   // Unix timestamp (seconds)
    val kind: Kind,        // Event type
    val tags: TagArray,    // [["e","eventid"], ["p","pubkey"], ...]
    val content: String,
    val sig: HexKey,       // Schnorr signature (128 hex chars)
)

What ships with it

1 file beside SKILL.md in the same directory: the scripts, references and assets a skill reads on demand. Not counted in the per-session cost; read them before you install if any of them is executable.

Changes

What this file has done since we first saw it

Hashed on every crawl. A supply-chain change to an agent config is a question of when, not whether, so the history is kept rather than the latest state alone.

quartz-integration is a skill published in the GitHub repository vitorpamplona/amethyst (1,593 stars, last pushed yesterday), licensed MIT. It adds 161 tokens to every session and 7,900 once invoked, about $0.0008 per session on Opus 5. A static security scan graded it A with 0 findings. No closer match exists in the catalogue, so it is treated as the original; first seen 2026-08-30.
