Advanced JWT diagnostics

JWK Inspector

Inspect a single JSON Web Key, identify key type and usage metadata, detect private key material and compute an RFC 7638 SHA-256 JWK thumbprint locally.

What I check before I trust a JWK

A JWK can carry kty, kid, alg, use, key_ops and curve information, but those fields do not establish trust by themselves. I first confirm where the key came from.

The RFC 7638 thumbprint is useful for comparing keys, but it does not make an untrusted key trustworthy.

JWK inspection and thumbprint calculation run locally. Do not paste private or symmetric production keys when a public JWK is enough.
