Starter template for building GuardSpine connectors. A connector pulls evidence artifacts from an external system (GitHub, Jira, CI pipelines, etc.) and emits them as v0.2.0 Evidence Bundles to the GuardSpine kernel.

1. Clone or copy this template.
2. npm install
3. Edit src/connector.ts:
   • Implement connect() with your source system's auth.
   • Implement fetchArtifacts() to retrieve raw data.
   • Optionally override transformToEvidenceItems() for custom mapping.
4. npm run build

This template targets Evidence Bundle schema v0.2.0. The interfaces in src/types.ts match the v0.2.0 specification:

• EvidenceBundle -- top-level container with schemaVersion: "0.2.0"
• EvidenceItem -- individual evidence records with source, kind, and payload
• ImmutabilityProof -- SHA-256 hash chain proving bundle integrity
• HashChainLink -- single link in the hash chain

Bundles produced by emitEvidenceBundle() include a cryptographic hash chain so the kernel can verify that no items were added, removed, or modified after emission.

  types.ts       -- v0.2.0 schema interfaces
  connector.ts   -- Base connector class (customize this)

tsconfig.json

Requires @guardspine/kernel >= 0.2.0 as a peer dependency. The kernel provides the runtime that receives emitted bundles.
