Description

I'd love to be able to verify the contents of a file I fetched so I don't have to trust the keybase SSL cert.

Research direction

Start by reviewing the keybase.pub behavior described in the issue and how a fetched file could be verified without trusting the Keybase SSL certificate. Clarify the expected signature format, download path, and verification workflow before identifying an implementation entry point. Done should include an agreed user-facing way to obtain and verify the signature.
