Problem

getTrustedCertificatesForVerification() only calls getX509CertsByUrl() for non-attestation client auth. If the configured TRUST_LIST_URL is unreachable or misconfigured (common in local/dev/e2e), the entire flow fails even if the caller has already explicitly trusted a certificate via POST /x509/trusted.

This blocked mdoc issuance/verification flows that create and trust certificates dynamically in tests.

Solution

• Import X509ModuleConfig.
• In the NoAuth branch, try getX509CertsByUrl() first (preserve existing behaviour).
• On error, resolve X509ModuleConfig from the agentContext and return trustedCertificates if non-empty. These are the certificates added via X509ModuleConfig / addTrustedCertificate() (e.g. POST /x509/trusted).
• If there are no fallback certificates, re-throw the original error so remote trust list failures still surface in environments that expect them.

Attestation-based auth (clientAuthentication === 'client_attestation') is unchanged.

Verification

• npx tsc --noEmit -p tsconfig.build.json passes.
• Enables the mdoc e2e flow to trust on-the-fly issuer certificates without a live trust list.
• Diff scoped to src/cliAgent.ts only.

Summary by CodeRabbit

• Bug Fixes
  • Improved certificate verification for connections that do not require client authentication.
  • If the standard trust-list cannot be reached, verification now falls back to configured trusted certificates when available.
  • When neither source is available, the original trust-list error is preserved and reported.

📝 Walkthrough

For NoAuth, certificate lookup falls back to configured agent trusted certificates when the static trust-list request fails. If no configured certificates are present, the code rethrows the fetch error. ClientAuth behavior is unchanged.

Changes: Certificate lookup

Layer / File(s)	Summary
NoAuth certificate fallback src/cliAgent.ts	The code imports X509ModuleConfig and uses configured agent trusted certificates when the static trust-list request fails and the configured list is nonempty. Otherwise, it rethrows the fetch error. ClientAuth behavior is unchanged.

Merge Risk: 🔵 Low · up to 53cd2

When the trust list cannot be fetched, certificate verification now falls back to issuer certificates the operator added locally, as intended. If the trust-list service hangs rather than failing, however, verification can still stall for minutes before that fallback runs. Adding a short request timeout is a small follow-up, and the change is otherwise reasonable to merge.

I agree, this auto configuration is required for automated testcases & even dev testing. One suggestion, can we make it configurable in such a way that it only works for dev/ testing not for agent configured for production env.
