Decentralized Indexing of Gestalt Discovery

[CMCDragonkai]

Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.

Many team-based SaaS applications havea quick way of forming a team "workspace". For example Slack and Notion both have the ability to create a workspace based on a company email address which then allows the workspace to allow anybody possessing the email domain to automatically sign up and join that workspace. In addition, they also provide a "sharing link" which can be shared directly with people to get them to sign up and auto-join the workspace.

This combined with magic-link based signup where you first pass through an email verification before setting the email (and this is quite a quick way to signup which doesn't require passwords) facilitates quick & easy onboarding.

In a decentralized system, the concept of a workspace is more amorphous. Users are using polykey in a decentralized manner, but should be able to form groups through the gestalt network in just an easy way.

Describe the solution you'd like

Using the gestalt network to bootstrap the formation of groups and enterprises. Right now a "gestalt" is subgraph of points of presence (keynodes and digital identities) that represent a single entity.

One uses the gestalt network to discover and keep track of other gestalts to share secrets with. This is ultimately facilitated by external identity platforms such as GitHub, LinkedIn and Twitter.

Can we extend this concept to include the idea of groups of gestalts?

Firstly the analogue to shared team workspace in Polykey would be a either be:

1. A gestalt representing an entire team/organisation/corporation (or subdivisions of these)
2. A set of vaults that are shared within a group of gestalts, where each gestalt represents an individual user

One can imagine the ability to create automatic spiders on the gestalt network that automate "social network" interactions. That is where a new gestalt gets discovered that matches a certain pattern constraint, they are automatically sent a notification to join a particular group/shared workspace. This can make use of the notification system and "preserve" the opt-in nature of decentralized systems.

Additional context

This has some relationship with the enterprise group policies and access audit log #179
