Part 15 of 20 in the DSPX-2604 re-cut. Base branch: dspx-2604-14-type-aliases.

This stack replaces #3782 / #3865 / #3921, which stay open and untouched
until it lands. Nothing here is a rebase of those branches — the work was
re-cut from the ticket so each PR stands on its own.

Proposed Changes

Deletes experimental/tdf TDF building logic, in favor of existing, more compliant
logic found in root sdk package.

The experimental writer built its own key access objects, and for EC KAS
keys it built them wrong in three ways at once. It set keyType
"eccWrapped", but service/kas/access/rewrap.go dispatches on the exact
string "ec-wrapped" and has no case for the other spelling. It derived
the wrapping key with HKDF and then XORed the DEK, where the spec and every
KAS expect AES-GCM under that derived key. And it omitted schemaVersion
from the KAO entirely. Any TDF this package produced against an EC KAS was
undecryptable, and nothing in the repo caught it because the package tested
its own output against its own expectations.

The fix is not a patch to that code but its deletion. key_access.go (-266)
goes away and Writer delegates to sdk.NewChunkedWriter, so key access
objects come from sdk.createKeyAccess -- the same code path
SDK.CreateTDF has always used and that the cross-SDK tests exercise. RSA,
EC, ML-KEM and hybrid wrapping now have exactly one implementation.
key_access_test.go (-652) goes with it; equivalent coverage against the
sdk functions landed earlier in this stack, so nothing is lost.

writer.go drops from 680 lines to ~292: Writer becomes its config plus
an inner sdk.ChunkedWriter and a finalized flag. Manifest assembly,
segment encryption, integrity hashing and assertion signing all move to the
one implementation. manifest.go sheds the calculateSignature copy and
the three constants that only its callers needed.

keysplit_adapter.go (+60) is why this is a delegation rather than a
rename. sdk.DefaultKeySplitter is single-KAS and ignores attributes;
keysplit.XORSplitter evaluates the full ABAC boolean expression and
XOR-splits the DEK across every KAS the resulting clauses require. The two
result shapes are field-identical, so the adapter is a straight copy. The
one structural mismatch is where the default KAS enters -- sdk passes it per
Split call, keysplit takes it at construction -- so the splitter is built
inside Split.

API changes callers will notice

Finalize error values are aliases of their sdk
counterparts rather than copies, so errors.Is matches under either name.

WithSegments no longer requires a contiguous prefix starting at 0.
Indices may be sparse -- a caller mapping fixed index blocks onto S3
multipart uploads writes gaps by construction -- but must still name written
segments in ascending order and may only drop from the end, because that is
the order the payload is laid out in.

WithExcludeVersionFromManifest is deprecated. It was always a no-op: the
manifest builder never read the flag. Omitting schemaVersion is how a
reader is told the TDF predates 4.3.0, and such a reader then expects
hex-then-base64 signatures, which are decided per segment at write time,
long before Finalize sees the option. WithTargetMode sets both together
and is the replacement.

WithIntegrityAlgorithm and WithSegmentIntegrityAlgorithm no longer take
effect, and asking for anything but the default is now an error from
NewWriter rather than a silent substitution. The other variants were unsupported
and resulted in incompatible TDFs/

Testing Instructions

cd sdk && go test ./... -race
cd examples && go build ./...

This changes the KAS wire format for EC keys, so it wants a cross-SDK run
before merge. Pin it to #3946, not to this branch — that is the first point
where CreateTDF goes through the changed code, and otdfctl is the only
Go consumer xtest drives:

gh workflow run xtest.yml --repo opentdf/tests --ref main \
  -f platform-ref=dspx-2604-17-createtdf-delegates \
  -f otdfctl-ref=dspx-2604-17-createtdf-delegates \
  -f java-ref=main -f js-ref=main

otdfctl-ref must name the branch too: it defaults to main, which builds
the CLI against main's sdk/ and makes the run vacuous. Check the job label
reads go@<branch> rather than go@main.

Reviewable in parallel right now, since they sit directly on main and depend on
nothing else: 01, 02, 04, 05, 06, 07, 08.

Why three PRs have a dspx-2604-base-* base. A GitHub PR takes one base branch,
but 11, 17 and 19 each build on more than one parent. The base-* branches are empty
merge commits that exist only to join those parents so the PR diff shows exactly its
own change and nothing else. They contain no code, have no PR of their own, and go
away once their parents land — retarget the child onto main at that point.

Wants a cross-SDK xtest run before merge: 15, 17 (and therefore 20). They touch
the KAS wire format. Dispatch it against 17 or 20, never 15 on its own: xtest drives
the Go side through otdfctl -> SDK.CreateTDF, and 17 is the first commit where
that call reaches the rewritten writer. Set otdfctl-ref to the same branch as
platform-ref -- it defaults to main, which builds the CLI against main's sdk/
and makes the run vacuous.

Red checks you may see are network flakes, not this stack. Four distinct ones hit
this batch and all clear on re-run: golangci-lint config verify timing out on
https://golangci-lint.run/.../golangci.v2.8.jsonschema.json (fails the whole go (<module>) job and fail-fast cancels its siblings), the bats installer getting a 403,
Docker Hub timing out on keycloak/keycloak:26.4, and buf reporting "the server
hosted at that remote is unavailable" while the Java SDK generates sources. The
govulncheck step also emits ##[error] annotations against the go1.25.11 stdlib, but
it is continue-on-error: true and never fails a job — 01 bumps the toolchain and
clears those annotations.

Pushed a round of fixes from a deeper review pass (agent-assisted, findings verified against the actual code):

Fixes

  • ErrUnsupportedRootIntegrityAlgorithm/ErrUnsupportedSegmentIntegrityAlgorithm in manifest.go were independent errors.New(...) values while NewWriter returned the sdk-scoped ones — errors.Is against the tdf-scoped name would never have matched. Now aliased, matching the treatment the other four errors already got.
  • examples/cmd/benchmark_experimental.go asked for WithSegmentIntegrityAlgorithm(SegmentHS256), which NewWriter's new hard-error validation now rejects at runtime. Dropped the option (SegmentGMAC is already the default).

Cleanup

  • Removed manifest.go's pre-delegation integrity helpers (hmacIntegrity, readAEADTag, segmentIntegrity, rootIntegrity) — unreachable now that Finalize delegates to sdk.ChunkedWriter — along with the two tests that only exercised them, and the excludeVersionFromManifest field, which was write-only.
  • Fixed a couple of doc comments that had drifted from the delegation: the WriterFinalizeConfig.excludeVersionFromManifest field comment contradicted WithExcludeVersionFromManifest's (correct) no-op doc a few lines below it; the package doc's Error Handling list was missing ErrMissingSegmentZero and the two integrity-algorithm errors.
  • Addressed today's open nitpick on doc.go's "Finalize is terminal" wording — now distinguishes a successful Finalize (terminal) from a pre-mutation refusal (writer stays usable) from a post-mutation failure (writer doesn't).
  • Expanded the WithSegments doc/example to call out that dropping a segment from the manifest doesn't shrink the archive — every written segment's bytes still have to be assembled, in order, regardless of what the manifest describes.

Test coverage

  • Added TestXORSplitterAdapterRoundTrip (keysplit_adapter_test.go): finalizes a 3-KAS ABAC-split TDF through tdf.NewWriter, decrypts each KAO with the matching KAS's private key, and XORs the recovered shares back together to verify the root signature. The existing multi-KAS tests only checked shape (non-empty/well-formed fields), which is exactly the assertion style that missed the original EC-KAS bug this PR fixes.

go build, go vet, go test -race, and golangci-lint all pass clean on sdk/experimental/... and examples/....

`sdk/experimental/tdf` carried its own copies of the manifest and assertion
types -- `Manifest`, `Segment`, `KeyAccess`, `Assertion`, `Statement`,
`AssertionKey` and the rest -- structurally identical to the ones in `sdk`
but distinct to the type system, so anything crossing the boundary needed
conversion. Two copies of the JWT signing and verification logic also had
to be kept in step by hand.

Replaces both files' definitions with type aliases. `sdk` owns the
definitions; this package re-exports them. Every exported name and every
method survives: `Assertion.Sign` / `Verify` / `GetHash`,
`Statement.UnmarshalJSON`, `AssertionKey.IsEmpty` / `Algorithm`,
`AssertionVerificationKeys.Get` / `IsEmpty` and the five `String()` methods
all come along with the aliased types, so importers compile unchanged. A
manifest produced here can now be handed to the stable SDK without
conversion, which is what the follow-up delegation needs.

Two deliberate non-aliases:

`Policy`, `PolicyBody` and `PolicyAttribute` stay local. `sdk.PolicyObject`
is itself exported and could be aliased, but it declares `Body` as an
anonymous struct over the unexported `attributeObject`, so `PolicyBody` and
`PolicyAttribute` have no sdk names to alias to, and the local ones are not
assignable to `Body`. Aliasing `Policy` alone would break every caller that
names the other two. For the alias to become possible `sdk` would have to
both export the attribute type and give `Body` a named one; that is a
separate change.

`IntegrityAlgorithm` stays a distinct `int` type. `sdk.IntegrityAlgorithm`
is itself `= int`, so no method can be attached to it, and aliasing would
silently drop `String()` from this package's public API. The underlying
values match, so the two convert freely.

`kSplitKeyType`, `kPolicyBindingAlg` and `kGMACPayloadLength` are retained
verbatim: this package still builds its own manifests and they have callers
in `writer.go` and `key_access.go`. The change that removes those callers
must delete these constants too, or they are left unused. (`calculateSignature`
was part of this set until #4030 removed it; the integrity helpers here are
now `hmacIntegrity`, `segmentIntegrity` and `rootIntegrity`.)

No behavior change. The package's existing tests pass unmodified.

…gate Writer

The experimental writer built its own key access objects, and for EC KAS
keys it built them wrong in three ways at once. It set keyType
`"eccWrapped"`, but `service/kas/access/rewrap.go` dispatches on the exact
string `"ec-wrapped"` and has no case for the other spelling. It derived
the wrapping key with HKDF and then XORed the DEK, where the spec and every
KAS expect AES-GCM under that derived key. And it omitted `schemaVersion`
from the KAO entirely. Any TDF this package produced against an EC KAS was
undecryptable, and nothing in the repo caught it because the package tested
its own output against its own expectations.

The fix is not a patch to that code but its deletion. `key_access.go` (-266)
goes away and `Writer` delegates to `sdk.NewChunkedWriter`, so key access
objects come from `sdk.createKeyAccess` -- the same code path
`SDK.CreateTDF` has always used and that the cross-SDK tests exercise. RSA,
EC, ML-KEM and hybrid wrapping now have exactly one implementation.
`key_access_test.go` (-652) goes with it; equivalent coverage against the
sdk functions landed earlier in this stack, so nothing is lost.

`writer.go` drops from 680 lines to ~292: `Writer` becomes its config plus
an inner `sdk.ChunkedWriter` and a `finalized` flag. Manifest assembly,
segment encryption, integrity hashing and assertion signing all move to the
one implementation. `manifest.go` sheds the `calculateSignature` copy and
the three constants that only its callers needed.

`keysplit_adapter.go` (+60) is why this is a delegation rather than a
rename. `sdk.DefaultKeySplitter` is single-KAS and ignores attributes;
`keysplit.XORSplitter` evaluates the full ABAC boolean expression and
XOR-splits the DEK across every KAS the resulting clauses require. The two
result shapes are field-identical, so the adapter is a straight copy. The
one structural mismatch is where the default KAS enters -- sdk passes it per
`Split` call, keysplit takes it at construction -- so the splitter is built
inside `Split`.

API changes callers will notice

`Finalize` now returns a single `*FinalizeResult` instead of
`(finalBytes, manifest, error)`. Error values are aliases of their sdk
counterparts rather than copies, so `errors.Is` matches under either name.

`ErrUnsupportedRootIntegrityAlgorithm` and `ErrUnsupportedSegmentIntegrityAlgorithm`
are sdk aliases too, for the same reason as the four above: a caller
matching on either name gets the same error.

`WithSegments` no longer requires a contiguous prefix starting at 0.
Indices may be sparse -- a caller mapping fixed index blocks onto S3
multipart uploads writes gaps by construction -- but must still name written
segments in ascending order and may only drop from the end, because that is
the order the payload is laid out in. Dropping a segment from the manifest
does not shrink the archive: every written segment's bytes, including ones
a caller excludes from the manifest, must still be appended when assembling
the final file.

`WithExcludeVersionFromManifest` is deprecated. It was always a no-op: the
manifest builder never read the flag. Omitting `schemaVersion` is how a
reader is told the TDF predates 4.3.0, and such a reader then expects
hex-then-base64 signatures, which are decided per segment at write time,
long before Finalize sees the option. `WithTargetMode` sets both together
and is the replacement.

This package's `"application/octet-stream"` MIME default is preserved
independently of the sdk default. `examples/cmd/benchmark_experimental.go`,
the only non-test consumer in the repo, asked for `SegmentHS256`; updated to
the default `SegmentGMAC` now that `NewWriter` refuses an algorithm it can't
produce instead of silently substituting one.

`manifest.go`'s pre-delegation integrity helpers (`hmacIntegrity`,
`readAEADTag`, `segmentIntegrity`, `rootIntegrity`) are unreachable now that
`Finalize` moved to `sdk.ChunkedWriter`; removed along with the two tests
that only exercised them. Added `TestXORSplitterAdapterRoundTrip`, which
decrypts a 3-KAS ABAC split with real KAS keys to verify the adapter's
`Split` -> `KeyAccess` pipeline end-to-end, since the existing multi-KAS
tests only checked shape.

Because this changes the KAS wire format for EC keys, it wants a cross-SDK
run before merge:

### Proposed Changes

DSPX-4499 fixed encrypt's OOM by streaming, but CreateTDF still required
an
io.ReadSeeker, so piped stdin had to be spooled to a temporary file
first. That
traded the whole-payload allocation for a disk write and a writable
TMPDIR --
better, but not the point. Now that CreateTDF takes an io.Reader, the
pipe goes
straight to the SDK.

A file is still opened seekably, on purpose. The SDK measures a seekable
payload and keeps the archive in the compact ZIP32 layout; an
unmeasurable one
has to be ZIP64, because the choice is baked into the payload's local
file
header before the first segment goes out. So `encrypt file.txt` is
unchanged
byte for byte, and `... | encrypt` produces a slightly larger TDF than
it did
when it was spooled. That is the trade, and it is the right way round:
nobody
should need a writable temp directory to encrypt a stream.

MIME sniffing is what made this more than a deletion. It reads the first
megabyte and previously seeked back to zero, which a pipe cannot do.
Wrapping
the input in a bufio.Reader is not an option either -- that hides the
Seeker
and would silently flip every file encrypt to ZIP64. detectMimeType now
returns
a reader alongside the type: the same reader for a seekable input,
rewound; the
sniffed prefix pushed back with io.MultiReader for anything else. A
megabyte in
memory at most, and only when --mime-type was not given.

Testing: TestDetectMimeTypePreservesThePayload now runs each case twice,
once
over a reader whose Seek method is hidden, and asserts the payload
arrives
whole either way. TestDetectMimeTypeKeepsSeekability guards the ZIP32
layout
directly, since nothing else would fail if a file came back wrapped. e2e
gains
"encrypt measures a file and streams a pipe", which reads the local file
header's extra field length to tell the two layouts apart -- both forms
round-trip, so a quiet return to spooling would show up nowhere else.

### Checklist

- [x] I have added or updated unit tests
- [x] I have added or updated integration tests (if appropriate)
- [x] I have added or updated documentation

### Testing Instructions

```
cd otdfctl && go test ./... -race
```

e2e, against a running platform:

```
cd otdfctl && bats e2e/streaming.bats
```

The file is tagged `payload_streaming` and runs in its own pass ahead of
the
parallel batch — see #3939 for why that ordering is load-bearing (the
platform
base key `key-base.bats` sets cannot be un-set, and breaks every
unattributed
encrypt scheduled after it).

The case to look at is `encrypt measures a file and streams a pipe`,
which
asserts the ZIP layout rather than the round trip: a file must stay
ZIP32
(extra field length 0 at offset 28 of the payload's local file header)
and a
pipe must be ZIP64 (non-zero). A quiet return to spooling would show up
nowhere
else, since both forms round-trip fine.

## Summary by CodeRabbit

* **New Features**
* Encryption now supports piped and other non-seekable input, including
larger streams.
* Inputs that cannot be measured in advance produce ZIP64 output;
seekable files continue to use ZIP32 when applicable.
* Regular-file redirects can be read directly without being copied to a
temporary file.
  * Decryption now supports TDFs supplied through pipes and redirects.
* Encrypted output remains compatible with the existing decryption flow.

### Proposed Changes

CreateTDF and CreateTDFContext took an io.ReadSeeker, so a caller with a
pipe,
a socket, or any other one-pass source had to spool the whole payload to
disk
or memory first. That is the block DSPX-2604 exists to remove: the
Everfox
re-wrap pipeline hands us a stream it cannot rewind. Both now take an
io.Reader and consume it from its current position through EOF.

Seekability was only ever used to measure the input. The length still
matters,
but it is now resolved rather than required:

- WithInputSize(n) declares it outright, for a reader that cannot report
it;
- failing that, a reader that happens to implement io.Seeker is probed,
and
    the cursor restored to wherever it was;
  - failing both, the payload is unmeasurable and is read until it ends.

The one thing an unmeasurable payload gives up is the compact ZIP32
layout.
The ZIP64 decision is baked into the payload's local file header, which
is
emitted ahead of the first segment, so it cannot be revisited once the
archive
has started; a payload that might exceed a 32-bit offset has to be
written as
ZIP64 from the outset. WithInputSize exists to buy that back — declaring
the
length of a piped payload keeps it in ZIP32 when it fits.

The read loop no longer computes a segment count up front. It reads a
buffer
at a time until EOF, which is what makes an unknown length workable, and
happens to be the same code path for a short final segment. An empty
payload
still produces one empty segment. The segment count is still passed to
the
archive writer when it is known, because that is what keeps a large
declared
count from being clamped to a one-segment capacity hint.

Three behavior changes worth calling out. The first is the only one that
can
silently shorten a payload; the other two fail loudly.

- A seekable reader is no longer rewound. The old code seeked to the end
to
measure and then back to byte 0, so it encrypted the whole file no
matter
where the caller had left the cursor. resolveInputSize saves the current
position and restores that one, so the payload is whatever remains from
    there. Concretely: a caller that sniffs the first 512 bytes for
content-type detection and then hands the same *os.File to CreateTDF
used
to get the whole file and now gets the file minus 512 bytes — no compile
error, no runtime error, just a shorter TDF that looks complete. Reading
from the current position is the right semantics for an io.Reader-shaped
API, and `a seekable reader is encrypted from its current position` pins
    it, but a caller relying on the rewind has to seek to 0 itself now.

- The 64 GB cap (maxFileSizeSupported/errFileTooLarge) is gone. It could
only ever be enforced on a measurable payload, so keeping it would have
meant `encrypt bigfile` failing where `encrypt < bigfile` succeeded.
Both
    were unexported; nothing outside the package referenced them.

- A declared size is exact, not an upper bound. A reader that reaches
EOF
    early now fails the call with errInputShorterThanDeclared instead of
returning a TDF that is silently short of the payload the caller asked
to
encrypt. Reading still stops at the declared size if the reader has
more.

What bounds a payload now, with the cap gone. maxPayloadSegments refuses
a size
needing more than MaxInt32 segments, but segmentCount is the only place
it is
enforced and that runs only when the length resolves — an unmeasurable
stream
has no segment ceiling. Underneath that, the real limit is manifest
memory: one
manifest segment and one archive-writer entry per segment, all live
until
finalize, roughly 500k entries per terabyte at the 2 MiB default.
Neither is
reachable today — 4 PiB at that segment size — so this is a note about
where
the wall moved to, not a regression. DSPX-4905 tracks bounding and
measuring
both.

Testing: Test_CreateTDF_StreamingInput covers the three measurement
modes
across empty, sub-segment, exact-multiple, and partial-final-segment
payloads,
asserting the ZIP64 choice, the segment count, and a full round trip
through
LoadTDF. Test_CreateTDF_InputSizeBounds covers the negative, over-long,
short,
and mid-stream-start cases. Both guards were mutation-checked: removing
the
io.LimitReader fails "declared size bounds the read", and dropping the
unknown-size ZIP64 rule fails every unmeasurable case.

### Checklist

- [x] I have added or updated unit tests
- [ ] I have added or updated integration tests (if appropriate)
- [ ] I have added or updated documentation

### Testing Instructions

```
cd sdk && go test ./... -race
```

`Test_CreateTDF_StreamingInput` and `Test_CreateTDF_InputSizeBounds` are
the
new coverage. Both guards were mutation-checked: removing the
`io.LimitReader`
fails "declared size bounds the read", and dropping the unknown-size
ZIP64 rule
fails every unmeasurable case.

**Reviewable in parallel right now**, since they sit directly on `main`
and depend on
nothing else: 01, 02, 04, 05, 06, 07, 08.

**Why three PRs have a `dspx-2604-base-*` base.** A GitHub PR takes one
base branch,
but 11, 17 and 19 each build on more than one parent. The `base-*`
branches are empty
merge commits that exist only to join those parents so the PR diff shows
exactly its
own change and nothing else. They contain no code, have no PR of their
own, and go
away once their parents land — retarget the child onto `main` at that
point.

**Wants a cross-SDK xtest run before merge:** 15, 17 (and therefore 20).
They touch
the KAS wire format.

**Red checks you may see are network flakes, not this stack.** Four
distinct ones hit
this batch and all clear on re-run: `golangci-lint config verify` timing
out on
`https://golangci-lint.run/.../golangci.v2.8.jsonschema.json` (fails the
whole `go
(<module>)` job and fail-fast cancels its siblings), the bats installer
getting a 403,
Docker Hub timing out on `keycloak/keycloak:26.4`, and `buf` reporting
"the server
hosted at that remote is unavailable" while the Java SDK generates
sources. The
`govulncheck` step also emits `##[error]` annotations against the
go1.25.11 stdlib, but
it is `continue-on-error: true` and never fails a job — 01 bumps the
toolchain and
clears those annotations.

## Summary by CodeRabbit

* **New Features**
* Encryption now supports piped and other non-seekable input, including
larger streams.
* Inputs that cannot be measured in advance produce ZIP64 output;
seekable files continue to use ZIP32 when applicable.
* Regular-file redirects can be read directly without being copied to a
temporary file.
  * Decryption now supports TDFs supplied through pipes and redirects.
* Encrypted output remains compatible with the existing decryption flow.
