What's in this PR

This PR lays the groundwork for three parallel development tracks. All files are stubs — class skeletons with full docstrings, TODO lists, and design rationale. No actual cryptography is implemented yet; each stub raises NotImplementedError with a clear message pointing to the tracking issue.

1. Benchmark Suite — Issue #6

  • �enchmarks/test_benchmark.py — pytest-benchmark skeleton
  • ML-KEM: keygen, encaps, decaps, full roundtrip (parametrized L1/L3/L5)
  • ML-DSA: keygen, sign, verify, full roundtrip (parametrized L1/L3/L5)
  • AES-256-GCM: encrypt/decrypt at 1KB, 64KB, 1MB
  • Cross-algorithm comparison (ML-KEM vs ML-DSA keygen)
  • TODOs: memory profiling, throughput, hybrid KEM benchmarks

2. Hybrid X25519+ML-KEM — Issue #4

  • src/qscg/hybrid/init.py — X25519Kyber768 class stub
  • Documents IETF draft, Chrome/BoringSSL and Cloudflare deployments
  • Constants: PUBLIC_KEY_SIZE = 1216, CIPHERTEXT_SIZE = 1120
  • TODO: X25519 scalar multiplication, ECDH, HKDF secret combiner, TLS 1.3 handshake

3. LMS / XMSS (Stateful Hash Signatures) — Issue #3

  • src/qscg/lms/init.py — LMS and HSS class stubs
  • src/qscg/xmss/init.py — XMSS and XMSSMT class stubs
  • Documents SP 800-208 and RFC 8391 parameter sets
  • Stateful index tracking design noted (never reuse an index)
  • TODO: Winternitz OTS / WOTS+, Merkle tree, auth paths, NIST CAVP test vectors

README.md

Why stubs?

Parallel development requires agreed interfaces before implementations land. These stubs define the API surface, constants, and reference documents so that:

  • Benchmark suite can reference X25519Kyber768 before it's implemented
  • CNSA 2.0 compliance doc can link to LMS and XMSS classes
  • Contributors can pick up any TODO independently without merge conflicts

Checklist

  • All stubs raise NotImplementedError with issue reference
  • Docstrings include standard references (NIST SP 800-208, RFC 8391/8554, IETF draft)
  • README roadmap updated
  • No breaking changes to existing code

P1 Badge Import MLKEM from an installed package module

qscg.hybrid currently imports MLKEM from qscg_v2_1_final, but pyproject.toml packages only src/ modules, so that top-level file is not available in a normal installed environment. As a result, import qscg.hybrid raises ModuleNotFoundError before any stub method can run, which breaks consumers who install the library via pip.

P1 Badge Fix benchmark module import path for documented command

The benchmark file adds only ../src to sys.path and then imports qscg_v2_1_final, which lives at repository root, so running the documented command (pytest benchmarks/ --benchmark-only) fails during collection with ModuleNotFoundError. This makes the new benchmark suite unusable out of the box.

P2 Badge Rename benchmark tests to match pytest discovery rules

All benchmark classes/methods use Benchmark* and bench_*, but this repo only customizes python_files in pytest config, so default class/function discovery prefixes still apply; these benchmarks are not collected even when imports are fixed (pytest benchmarks/test_benchmark.py --collect-only reports 0 items). This silently disables the benchmark suite.
