 application.

+## Applications
+
+### Transcript App
+
+**Dependencies:** None
+
+Initializes a [Merlin](https://merlin.cool)-based cryptographic transcript that
+ can be used as the basis of higher level commitment-based protocols
+ 
+ Transcript app will panic if an app ever tries to overwrite an existing
+  transcript with a new one (enforcing the rule that a session is based on
+  one, and only one, transcript.)
+
+### Authentication App
+
+**Dependencies:** Transcript App
+
+Engages in an ephemeral triple-diffie-hellman handshake to derive a unique,
+authenticated session key.
+
+### Token App
+
+**Dependencies:** Transcript App
+
+Allows the client to obtain signed, blinded tokens for use in another
+ application.
