- The ``abort`` command aborts an ongoing verification
- The ``ask`` command start a verification, with a question or not
- - The ``answer`` command answers a verification and ends the smp session
+ - The ``answer`` command sends back the answer and finishes the verification
-To use OTR, make sure the plugin is loaded (if not, then do ``/load otr``).
+Managing trust
+--------------
-A simple workflow looks like this:
+An OTR conversation can be started with a simple ``/otr start`` and the
+conversation will be encrypted. However it is very often useful to check
+that your are talking to the right person.
-.. code-block:: none
+To this end, two actions are available, and a message explaining both
+will be prompted each time an **untrusted** conversation is started:
- /otr start
-
-The status of the OTR encryption should appear in the bar between the chat and
-the input as ``OTR: encrypted``.
-
-Then you use ``fpr``/``ourfpr`` to check the fingerprints, and confirm your respective
-identities out-of-band.
-
-You can then use
-
-.. code-block:: none
-
- /otr trust
-
-To set the key as trusted, which will be shown when you start or refresh a conversation
-(the trust status will be in a bold font and if the key is untrusted, the remote fingerprint
-will be shown).
-
-Once you’re done, end the OTR session with
-
-.. code-block:: none
-
- /otr end
+- Checking the knowledge of a shared secret through the use of :term:`/otrsmp`
+- Exchanging fingerprints (``/otr fpr`` and ``/otr ourfpr``) out of band (in a secure channel) to check that both match,
+ then use ``/otr trust`` to add then to the list of trusted fingerprints for this JID.
