Description

After uploading my public and private keys through the browser, I have attempted to sign the below message. Pasting this message into the verification section then advises that KeyBase does not have the public key used to sign the document.

-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE-----
Hash: SHA512

This message is signed with pgp.
-----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE-----
Version: Keybase OpenPGP v2.0.76

Research direction

Start by reproducing the browser flow: upload the public and private keys, sign the supplied PGP message, and paste it into verification. Trace which part of the Keybase client handles key registration and signature verification; done means the verifier recognizes the public key used by the uploaded signing key.
