Document LWS / CID v1 profile compatibility (Phase A landed; Phase B + verifier pending) #394

Description

@melvincarvalho

Follow-up from #387 / #388 (Phase A of #386).

Now that new pod profiles are structurally W3C Controlled Identifier documents, we should document this honestly so anyone landing on the project knows:

  • What works today — profile shape is LWS-CID-aware; any LWS verifier dereferencing a JSS-served WebID gets a parseable CID document
  • What doesn't yetverificationMethod arrays are empty (Phase B / standalone doctor app populates them), and JSS doesn't yet have a server-side LWS-CID JWT verifier (Profile-to-key linking aligned with LWS 1.0 (FPWDs 2026-04-23) via W3C Controlled Identifiers v1.0 #386 Phase 3)
  • How a future LWS verifier would integrate — the kid lookup contract, the cross-document binding via alsoKnownAs for did:nostr, etc.

Scope

1. JSS README

  • Add a brief bullet under Features noting LWS / CID v1 profile compatibility (one line, links to the dedicated doc page).

2. New doc: `docs/lws.md` in JSS

3. Companion docs-site page
