GetAllSkipChainIDsReply - reply to GetAllSkipchains

• repeated bytes skipChainIDs = 1

GetSingleBlock asks for a single block.

• required bytes id = 1

GetSingleBlockByIndex searches for a block with the given index following the genesis-block

• required bytes genesis = 1

• required sint32 index = 2

GetSingleBlockByIndexReply returns the block and a set of links that proves this block to be attached to the genesis block.

• required SkipBlock skipblock = 1

• repeated ForwardLink links = 2

GetUpdateChain - the client sends the hash of the last known Skipblock and will get back a list of all necessary SkipBlocks to get to the latest.

• required bytes latestID = 1

  latest known id of a block.

• optional sint32 maxHeight = 2

• optional sint32 maxBlocks = 3

GetUpdateChainReply - returns the shortest chain to the current SkipBlock, starting from the SkipBlock the client sent

• repeated SkipBlock update = 1

  update is the shortest path from the requested block to the latest block.

StoreSkipBlock - Requests a new skipblock to be appended to the given SkipBlock. If the given TargetSkipChainID is an empty slice, then a genesis block is created. Otherwise, the new block is added to the skipchain specified by TargetSkipChainID.

StoreSkipBlockReply - returns the signed SkipBlock with updated backlinks and the previous block if it exists.
