STAR application profiles #

TODO: expand and add more guidance

Archive integrity #

A STAR reader cannot detect early truncation at a data pair boundary. Profiles should define an integrity check, possibly using header metadata, such as:

• the number of expected records
• the MST root CID of the contained data, as in atproto-public-repo
• the LtHash over all contained data entries, as in atproto-spaces-repo
