Why Qwick Cert
Microsoft-grade signing infrastructure with a self-serve developer experience.
Built on Azure Trusted Signing
You keep Microsoft-run signing infrastructure under the hood. Qwick Cert supplies the self-serve UX on top.
Digest-Only Transit
The CLI computes the digest locally and sends only the hash. Your binary and Azure credentials stay off the wire.
Works in Terminal, CI, and AI
Sign from qwick sign, a GitHub Action on any runner OS, or an MCP-enabled coding agent.
Team Controls Included
Audit history, approvals, and signing policies are part of the product instead of an afterthought glued onto Azure.
Tell Your Coding Agent to Sign the Release
AI is not a side feature here. Qwick Cert exposes signing, diagnostics, setup status, policy checks, and org operations through MCP so AI-first developers can ship without dropping into a separate console every time.
Natural-language signing
Prompt your agent to find the build output, sign the right files, and verify the signatures before release.
Troubleshooting in-context
When signing breaks, the agent can inspect auth, policy, session state, and setup issues instead of leaving you with a generic failure.
Setup and CI by prompt
Use one prompt to create an API key, generate a workflow, or validate that your release pipeline is correctly wired.
Built to Keep Secrets Off Your Machines
Digest proxy architecture means your binaries and credentials never leave their environments.
Your binary never leaves your machine
The CLI computes a SHA-256 digest locally and sends only the 32-byte hash. Your source code and executables stay where they are.
Azure keys never touch your machine
Private keys live inside FIPS 140-2 Level 3 HSMs managed by Microsoft. No PFX files, no hardware tokens, nothing to lose or leak.
Every signature is tracked automatically
User identity, file hash, timestamp, and IP are recorded server-side on every signing event. The audit trail is enforced, not opt-in.

Audit log
Self-Serve Setup, Then One Release Path Everywhere
The goal is not just signing once. It is having a repeatable flow your terminal, pipeline, and AI tools can all share.
01~5 min
Connect Azure once
Create your account, paste your Azure tenant ID, and follow the guided wizard. We configure the service principal, RBAC roles, and signing profile so you don't have to read portal docs.
02Choose one
Pick your interface
Use the CLI locally, drop a GitHub Action into your pipeline, or let an MCP-enabled coding agent handle it. The signing flow, audit trail, and policies stay the same regardless.
03Every build
Sign every release
Run one command or one prompt. The digest is computed locally, signed server-side, and verified automatically. Every signature is logged to your org's audit trail.
