• CURIE: gmeow:signingDomain

Structure

Property shape: datatype property; gmeow:CryptographicSignature -> rdfs:Literal; functional

Practical Pattern

Use gmeow:signingDomain from gmeow:CryptographicSignature to rdfs:Literal when the relationship itself belongs in the native GMEOW graph.

Common Companion Terms

gmeow:CryptographicSignature

Usage Advice

Use when

• Use to record the domain a signature asserts on behalf of — the DKIM d= tag and like domain-scoped signing claims.

Avoid when

• Avoid for the signer agent (that is gmeow:signedBy) and for the verification outcome (gmeow:verificationStatus); the domain is the claimed signing authority, not the identity or the result. It is functional.

How to use

• Attach the domain literal to the signature; the email-wire detail (Authentication-Results, relay hops) lives in the email extension, while this generic seam carries the asserted domain.

Examples

• ex:sig1 gmeow:signingDomain "example.com".
