Hi Anders,

None of this is magic.  You'd write a draft in the COSE working group that 
registers these algorithms in the COSE algorithms registry.  You could model it 
on https://www.rfc-editor.org/rfc/rfc8812.html, which also registered existing 
algorithms for COSE.

It would be a short draft.

This would be a question best discussed in the COSE WG, but ultimately the 
designated experts (Göran Selander, Derek Atkins, Sean Turner) would respond to 
a code point registration request along the lines of Section 10.4 of RFC 9053 
[1].
There note in particular the passage about "additional documentation on 
security analysis of the algorithm" and the expectation "to meet the security 
requirements of the community" (I read your question as a way to elicit more 
information about the latter).
