+## API Auth Model
+
+Caravel intentionally uses a session-style variant of NIP-98 for client-to-backend API auth.
+
+- Frontend signs one kind `27235` event with `u = VITE_API_URL` and caches that header for about 10 minutes.
+- Backend verifies event kind, signature, and that `u` contains configured `HOST`.
+- Backend intentionally does not bind auth to exact request URL/method/query, and does not enforce payload hash, timestamp freshness window, or replay cache.
+- Goal: reduce repeated wallet signing prompts and avoid cookie-based sessions.
+- Tradeoff: this is weaker request-intent binding than strict NIP-98 semantics.

 ## Authentication
 
-- Tenant requests use NIP-98 tokens derived from the logged-in user
-- Admin routes require a pubkey listed in `PLATFORM_ADMIN_PUBKEYS` on the backend
+- Tenant requests use an intentional session-style variant of NIP-98:
+  - The client signs one kind `27235` event with `u = VITE_API_URL`.
+  - The resulting `Authorization` header is cached for about 10 minutes to avoid repeated signer prompts.
+  - The backend validates signer identity + host affinity rather than exact URL/method binding per request.
