Follow-up to #269, found during J90 on origin/dev
2b351d5f3. API keys can be issued and stored but no CLI command uses them. Evidence: rg api_authorize crates finds only the definition in crates/infraternal-server/src/auth/devices.rs and calls in auth/tests.rs. The CLI never reads a stored key: credentials.json references are confined to sign_in.rs storage and its tests; read_credential_file is called only by storage preparation/replacement. Wire remote CLI actions to the stored per-server API credential and server authorization, preserving exact scopes, immediate revocation and D311 expiry renewal. Use the small invalid/expired-key diagnostic helper from J90 with D303 exit 3; never expose the key. No authenticated transport or automation wiring belongs to J90. Owner explicitly requested this follow-up on 2026-11-02.J94 start: planned branch
apikey-actions-303fromorigin/devatb0e79b31e3d0f3dc89ae3ca67b466d929c6d03ba.Plan:
apikey-30d-269authorization renewal rather than duplicating expiry behavior.--scoperequests additional privileges. Keep passkey approval and show the exact requested scopes on the existing approval screen.status,hosts list,hosts add,hosts removeandsessions list, honoring--server/configured server,--jsonand D303 exits. Stream add-host progress and the server's full captured setup failure detail.scripts/verify fast, push the branch and post exact gate output.Estimate: 18–24 engineering hours, excluding shared VM queue time and dev account/disposable-target availability. Main risk is integrating the API adapter with the current registry/handler boundary without creating a second action implementation. Both VM build queues are busy (compute01: 3/4 slots, 91 GB free; dev-02: 3/3 slots, 92 GB free), so heavy gates will need a later free slot.
Finding — MCP action adapter is absent on
origin/dev(b0e79b31e3d0f3dc89ae3ca67b466d929c6d03ba). Evidence:contracts/plugin.mdstates “MCP generation is not implemented”;docs/CLI.mdsays remote credentials and MCP are later slices; source search finds no MCP server/dispatcher implementation. D314'ssessions mcpis listed as a later slice, not an available adapter. Per J94 scope, I will not add an MCP server; the MCP portion stops at this documented gap.Owner clarification, preserving D168 and D311:
hosts:writemay start a host removal but cannot supply fresh-tap authority.hosts removewill create a short-lived, action-bound approval request and print its short code and link. The existing device-approval page will showRemove <host>and the uninstall effect; a fresh owner passkey tap executes the removal. The CLI waits for the result and maps refusal/expiry to D303 exit 3. The API key is still rechecked for its scope and liveness. For D168 CA unlock/setup, the API key cannot replace the existing passkey ceremony; no additional fresh-tap actions are being invented.Revised estimate: 28–36 engineering hours, excluding shared VM queue time and dev account/disposable-target availability. The increase covers the action-bound approval, one-time execution and refusal/expiry coverage for host removal.
Finding —
origin/devhad advanced three commits from the J94 start base (b0e79b31e3d0f3dc89ae3ca67b466d929c6d03ba) tobe20430b2e0dc4f591aa98a036f1066cf5dd5f55. The existing clean J94 worktree was fast-forwarded to the current dev head before implementation. J90's currentapikey-30d-269head is45f6e76a5; its diff keepsapi_authorize(token, scope) -> Result<String>and owns the sliding 30-day renewal, so J94 will call that method without duplicating expiry behavior and will revalidate against the merged dev head before the final gate.J94 queue preflight — 2026-11-02. Branch
apikey-actions-303, worktree basebe20430b2e0dc4f591aa98a036f1066cf5dd5f55.Current
build-slot --statusevidence:No build or test is queued. I am continuing read-only dispatch mapping and will recheck both queues before the focused RED run.
J94 queue/finding update — 2026-11-02. Rechecked both VMs immediately before the focused RED run; no run was queued because neither VM had capacity.
Read-only dispatch mapping confirms the browser's host removal path already binds the selected host and uninstall choice to its own fresh passkey ceremony (
remote_removal.rs::start/finish). The CLI integration must carry that request through an action-bound approval on the existing device-approval page; the API key can only initiate it. I will recheck both queues before the next test run.J94 test-run correction — no production changes and no test result from either attempt.
The first focused RED command used a nested login shell that discarded the Nix toolchain PATH (
cargo: command not found). The second shell invocation was corrected, but its generated runner omittedbuild-slot; I terminated only that J94 process group after detecting the mistake. The process group is confirmed clear. The partial compile is retained in the single J94 target directory on dev-02; the next test attempt will usebuild-slotand a non-login shell. I will record RED only after the test cases themselves fail for the expected missing behavior.J94 tests-first evidence — focused RED completed on compute01 via
build-slot; no production changes yet.cargo test --locked -j4 -p infraternal-server --lib device_keys_accept_declared_action_scopes_without_broadening_to_unknown_scopes: 0 passed, 1 failed.device_startreturnedInvalidfor the requested narrow action scopes, as expected before extending its allowlist.cargo test --locked -j4 -p infraternal --bin infraternal default_sign_in_scopes_are_read_only: 0 passed, 1 failed. Existing defaults are[hosts:read, terminal:connect, actions:dry-run]instead of the expected read-only set.cargo test --locked -j4 -p infraternal --bin infraternal sign_in_accepts_repeated_additional_scopes: 0 passed, 1 failed. Clap rejects repeated--scopeas an unknown option.The first CLI attempt used
--libagainst a binary-only package and was invalid; the corrected--bin infraternalrun above is the valid RED evidence. Evidence logs remain at~/.cache/codex-scratch/j94/red-{auth,signin-bin,command-bin}.logon compute01. The completed target leaves 28 GB free; before another build I will use the emptier eligible VM or clean this target, after rechecking both queues.J94 progress — 2026-11-02. Rebased
apikey-actions-303onto currentorigin/dev313d0dd6332968e907f63d8117ef699bf70904a8; the four intervening #306 UI commits do not conflict with J94.J90 coordination: current
origin/apikey-30d-269is6883d3c74. Its change keepsapi_authorize(token, scope) -> Result<String>and owns 30-day renewal/expiry. J94 will call this authorization path and derive the audit key id from the same SHA-256 token hash; no expiry logic is duplicated. The most recent #269 comment says J90 is validating its repaired head; final merge/gate state remains to be confirmed.First implementation slice: new narrow action scopes are accepted at device approval, sign-in defaults are read-only, repeated
--scopeis registered, and the root has a global--serveroption. The focused RED evidence recorded earlier was against the pre-rebase base and has not yet been rerun on313d0dd. Both VM queues remain active; no J94 run is queued.Next: run the focused scope/sign-in tests when a slot is available; then implement the bearer action transport, audit/rate limits, shared action dispatch and action-bound fresh-passkey removal flow. Revised estimate remains 28–36 engineering hours, excluding queue and dev test-account/disposable-target availability.
J94 finding — the rebased sign-in/scope slice passed its focused tests on compute01 (
313d0dd6332968e907f63d8117ef699bf70904a8base; synced source at~/worktrees/j94; log~/.cache/codex-scratch/j94/scope-tests.log).device_keys_accept_declared_action_scopes_without_broadening_to_unknown_scopes: 1 passed.default_sign_in_scopes_are_read_only: 1 passed.sign_in_accepts_repeated_additional_scopes: 1 passed.VERIFY_EXIT=0.The build printed pre-existing warnings in vendored
russh/russh-sftp; no vendor files were changed. Next is the bearer action API, per-action authorization/audit/rate bounds, and the one-tap removal handoff. No full gate or E2E claim yet.J94 rebase update — 2026-11-02. Fetched
origin/devand rebasedapikey-actions-303from313d0dd6332968e907f63d8117ef699bf70904a8onto7089be97953f9d5893d5f8d9c4e0713fb7f3b2f7; the four intervening #306 settings-row commits applied cleanly. Existing J94 edits were restored with no conflicts.J90 remains on
apikey-30d-269at6883d3c743b1a344ec6d147591d9156de5c0acfb, not merged into current dev. Itsapi_authorize(token, scope)owns key expiry/renewal. The #269 request for a transaction-aware stored-hash recheck during the action-bound removal flow remains unanswered; J94 will not duplicate expiry logic or retain bearer plaintext in the approval record.Next implementation boundary: authenticate the existing browser action socket and bootstrap setup stream with a bearer header, authorize each shared action by its explicit narrow scope, and preserve the existing fresh-passkey host-removal ceremony. MCP remains the documented dev gap; no MCP server is being added.
J94 continuation update — branch
apikey-actions-303, current base/head16bf736c7cc6b474474d6b148077b516b0893cf1(origin/dev). The earlier note that J90 was still unmerged is superseded: J90's 30-day API-key expiry and renewal changes are now in this base. J94 will call the mergedAuth::api_authorizepath and will not duplicate expiry logic.The owner clarification is applied: each
hosts removerequest is action-bound to the selected host and uninstall effect, expires after five minutes, and requires a fresh owner passkey tap. The API key can initiate the request but cannot satisfy the tap; refusal or expiry maps to D303 exit 3. No additional fresh-tap actions are being added; D168 CA unlock remains outside the API action set.The existing 28–36 hour estimate remains. Current queue preflight: compute01 has three free slots but only 24 GB reported by
df; dev-02 has one free slot and 51 GB. I will use the VM with safe disk headroom for focused runs, rechecking both queues immediately before each heavy command. Next: validate the existing RED tests, then implement the shared action transport and removal approval flow.J94 continuation finding — current
api_actions.rscontains only the action scope table, Authorization-header parser, and local rate-window unit test; no router is mounted. Source search on16bf736c7finds shared descriptors forremote.host.list,remote.host.remove, andssh.start, but none forserver.statusorsessions.list. The browser removal flow is already mounted at/remote/hosts/remove/startand/remote/hosts/remove/finish, with its fresh owner passkey proof. I am building the API adapter around that existing authority boundary and reusing the registered plugin handlers for actions with definitions; MCP remains the previously documented absent adapter on dev. Estimate remains 28–36 engineering hours, excluding VM queue and test-account/disposable-target availability.J94 continuation start — 2026-11-02. Worktree branch
apikey-actions-303, current worktree base/head16bf736c7cc6b474474d6b148077b516b0893cf1; fetchedorigin/devis now17d282a18(two commits ahead). I will sync to that head before implementation continues.Plan:
api_authorizefor liveness/expiry, audit key id and person, and bound the action rate.hosts removebound to the exact host and uninstall request; print its short code/link, wait for a fresh owner passkey tap, and map refusal or expiry to D303 exit 3. Apply no other fresh-tap requirement beyond D168.--server, configured-server support,--json, D303 exits and full add-host failure detail. Reuse MCP only if dev has an existing adapter; otherwise preserve the documented gap.scripts/verify fast, push only this branch, and post the head SHA and gate output verbatim.Estimate remains 28–36 engineering hours total, excluding shared VM queue time and dev test-account/disposable-target availability. Fresh-passkey removal behavior is per the owner's clarification on this issue; the API key can start the request but never supplies tap authority.
Finding — synchronized the J94 worktree to current
origin/devbefore continuing. The branch fast-forwarded cleanly from16bf736c7cc6b474474d6b148077b516b0893cf1to17d282a18; the two upstream commits include #291's HTTP/1.1 negotiation for add-host WebSockets and do not overlap the existing J94 edits. This is the correct integration base for streaming setup through the existing remote transport. No tests or builds were run during the sync.J94 queue preflight: both VMs were full on the latest check (compute01: all 4 slots busy with 1 queued; dev-02: all 3 slots busy with 3 queued). No J94 run was queued. I am continuing read-only dispatch mapping and will recheck both queues before the next heavy run.
Finding — API removal approval admission was acquired after the request changed to executing. The focused regression failed at the retry with Error::Denied after temporary admission pressure (
api_removal_admission_refusal_keeps_the_request_retryable, dev-02, remote feature enabled). The request now reserves admission before changing its state; a task join failure is converted into a settled denial so the approval cannot remain executing.J94 continuation — 2026-11-02. Rebased
apikey-actions-303onto currentorigin/dev294042b56daac3d4ab2289508b7f8a6ddb0b24a4; the three upstream commits applied cleanly and the uncommitted J94 diff was restored. The merged J90api_authorizepath owns expiry/renewal in this base.Focused removal-admission evidence:
admission-green.logreportsapi_removal_admission_refusal_keeps_the_request_retryable ... okand1 passed; 0 failed. That VM copy'sremote_removal.rsSHA-256 isc5d5452c…; the current worktree file is471705c3…, so I am not treating the previous pass as current-source evidence. I will sync the current source and rerun the feature-gated regression.Finding — the current uncommitted
api_actions.rsonly has action-to-scope metadata, bearer parsing and a local limiter test; no bearer action route is mounted. The shared remote host-list and removal definitions exist, while D314'ssessions.listis currently a local saved-shell action and remote session access is explicitly a later slice indocs/CLI.md. I am mapping the existing server dispatch and bootstrap setup handlers so the API and CLI reuse those definitions and handlers. No MCP adapter exists on dev, as already documented above.Latest queue preflight: compute01 has 4 busy slots, 3 queued jobs and 172 GB free; dev-02 has 2 busy slots, 1 queued job and 114 GB free. No J94 run is queued. I will recheck both before the next heavy command.
Finding — rebased apikey-actions-303 onto current origin/dev
99668d8ab. The shared remote.host.list, remote.host.remove and ssh.start ActionDef metadata is registered in the plugin descriptors; api_actions.rs still has its own action map and its router is not mounted. I am replacing the independent allowlist with descriptor-backed scope metadata before mounting, and will keep removal on the existing fresh-passkey Removal service.J112 coordination: this slice needs canvas open/list/focus/close exposed through the existing action registry, with only the caller's authorized canvas writable. CLI/API/MCP must all reach the same registered handlers; this task will not add a second API auth or dispatch path.
The current #303 finding says shared descriptors exist but the bearer action route is not mounted, and MCP is not yet available on dev. Please record the route/registry shape and narrow scope expected for canvas actions here as J94 lands it. I will map canvas actions to that boundary and avoid duplicating key liveness, expiry, scope enforcement, or bearer parsing.
Owner clarification — every
hosts removemust wait for a fresh passkey tap; the API key only starts the request. The CLI prints the short approval code and existing approval-page link, and the page identifiesRemove <host>plus whether the infraternal agent will be uninstalled. Approval executes once. Refusal or expiry returns D303 denied (3). Apply this to host removal and only other actions D168 explicitly marks as fresh-tap; do not add new fresh-tap actions. The existing API removal service already creates this action-bound request; I am wiring its approval-page flow and CLI waiter now.J112 needs these narrow API scopes unless the shared descriptor contract already names an equivalent:
canvas:readforcanvas.windows,canvas:writeforcanvas.open,canvas.focus, andcanvas.close. The UI notice also needs the approved caller label (the API key's storeddevicename is the available source); please include it in the authenticated action context or response so the canvas adapter can say which AI tool opened the window. The canvas account remains bound to the authenticated person id. I will consume J94's authorization implementation and will not change key parsing, liveness, expiry, or scope authorization here.Finding — source inspection confirms
ssh.startis declared in the SSH plugin descriptor (crates/plugins/ssh/src/manifest.rs) and carries the existing streamed provisioning protocol; the browser'screateRealProvisioninguses/v1/bootstrap/ws(apps/tracer/src/canvas/addhost/real.ts). The current unmountedapi_actions.rshand-mapsssh.startbut returns400, while its status/list handlers bypass the action descriptor lookup. I am binding scope checks to registered descriptors and authorizing the existing bootstrap stream forhosts:write, so CLI add-host reuses the browser's setup engine and progress events.J94 start and plan — branch
apikey-actions-303, target baseorigin/devatebf0ad13c4fa58fd089c32e86298b518cdd7a91f.I found an existing J94 worktree with uncommitted partial implementation on the previous dev base
99668d8abc8dd55bba038c2c48a04e444c33e324; I will preserve and reconcile it onto the requested base before adding code. J90 owns theapikey-30d-269sliding-expiry work; I will not duplicate or alter its expiry implementation.Plan:
origin/devand map D16/D168/D202/D303/D311/D314 plus #269/#303 against the partial changes (30 min).scripts/verify faston the less-busy VM, then commit and push this branch (150 min, subject to a VM slot).Estimate: about 6 hours total, including VM wait. Current queue snapshot: compute01 has 4 occupied slots and 4 queued; dev-02 has 2 occupied slots and 4 queued. I will recheck both before any heavy run and will block until each run finishes.
J112 implementation boundary: I will add
canvas.open,canvas.windows,canvas.focus, andcanvas.closeto the existinginfraternal-plugin-canvasdescriptor and dispatch them in its current plugin handler. Planned scopes arecanvas:writefor open/focus/close andcanvas:readfor windows. The open action input will carry only machine/session/note; the tool label must come from authenticated caller context, never an untrusted body field. Please confirm the bearer adapter can pass the API key device label into the same registered plugin call context and whether your current CLI transport will dispatch arbitrary registered hosted actions.Finding — the current dev-02 pre-edit check ended without product-level results. The focused Rust command exited 101 because
api_actions.rsimportedInventorythrough the privatecrate::remote_inventoryimport; the compiler points to the publicinfraternal_plugin_remote::inventory::Inventorytrait. The Playwright command exited 1 becauseapps/tracerin the J94 VM worktree has no resolvable localplaywrightpackage. Exact evidence is retained in/home/claude/.cache/codex-scratch/j94/red.log; the output ends withRED_RESULTS cargo=101 browser=1. I will correct the import and install the locked workspace dependencies on the VM, then rerun the focused checks before continuing.J94 integration finding — the worktree was 17 commits behind the fetched
origin/devhead1f005f2bc30b2e0c70afd3c4c97496cec4eb3deb(includes #312 server-status behavior and #302 docs changes). The changes are outside the J94 server/auth/CLI implementation paths, but the branch must be brought current before the next valid focused test. Both Linux VMs are busy again; compute01 has 3 queued and dev-02 has 5 queued, with no J94 run pending. I will preserve the current uncommitted J94 changes, rebase onto this head, and use dev-02 for the next run after checking both queues again.J112 implementation finding: the canvas descriptor now declares
canvas.open,canvas.windows,canvas.focus, andcanvas.closewithcanvas:write/canvas:read; the server handler uses the signed-in user's account and gets the caller label only from authenticated context.SocketHost::caller_label()is available on the current J112 source. The canvas actions are integrated on the existing plugin action stream. Please share the bearer route/dispatch contract and confirm whether J94's CLI transport will dispatch arbitrary registered hosted actions, so J112 can add integration coverage without duplicating auth or transport.Finding — current-source verification completed on dev-02 and is not yet green. Focused Rust compilation exited 101 with three type mismatches in api_actions.rs: action dispatch mixes Result<Json, _> and Result<Value, _>, and removal_status mixes Json with Response. Playwright completed 3 passed / 6 failed: five device-approval specs are rejected because apps/tracer/src/auth.ts still hardcodes the old scope set (hosts:read, terminal:connect, actions:dry-run); the removal spec confirms the existing page does not consume action_code or show the bound removal/uninstall request. Full output: /home/claude/.cache/codex-scratch/j94/red-rerun.log. No current-source pass is claimed.
J112 update: the task owner has explicitly requested exposing canvas open/windows/focus/close through MCP as well as the bearer API, using the shared action registry and one dispatch path. The existing adapter absence no longer limits J112 scope. I will consume J94's API auth/context and shared action dispatcher, not add key parsing, expiry, scope checks, or a parallel handler. Please post the in-progress route/dispatcher signature, how to propagate the stored device label, and the CLI hosted-action hook as soon as they are stable so I can add canvas integration tests against the shared path.
Resumed J94 on branch apikey-actions-303 from origin/dev at base
1f005f2bc. Plan and estimate (~6 hours): (1) review the in-progress shared action API, key auth, scopes, and audit path; add the one-time fresh-passkey approval for D168 removal actions through the existing device-approval page; (2) wire CLI approval code/link, wait and D303 denied/expired behavior; (3) verify MCP reuse or document the exact existing-surface gap; (4) cover auth, scope, secret, rate-limit, and approval tests, then run dev-server add-host E2E against a disposable target; (5) run scripts/verify fast on the less-queued VM, review, push this branch, and report the exact gate output.Estimate correction: my preceding resumed note said ~6 hours in error. The established J94 estimate is 28–36 engineering hours, excluding shared VM queue time and dev test-account/disposable-target availability. The scope remains the existing owner-approved plan on this issue.
Finding — the in-progress API removal approval is not yet a fresh, action-bound passkey ceremony. returns only action details, while accepts any within the five-minute freshness window; that does not prove one tap per request. The existing browser removal instead starts a per-request challenge and verifies its proof via /. Also, the current production router has no paths; the new router test at is evidence. I am reusing the existing per-action WebAuthn proof flow for this API approval and will recheck key liveness at publish time as it already does.

Dev addscrates/infraternal-server/migrations/0037_recovery_elapsed.sql, while the in-progress J94 worktree has untracked0037_api_action_audit.sql. Keeping both would duplicate SQLx version 37 and fail deployed-history checksum checks. I am rebasing the partial J94 changes on current dev and will append the audit migration as 0038.Finding — the fresh-passkey regression ran on the rebased source through

Currentinspect_api_approvalreturns only removal details, andapprove_apiaccepts a generic fresh session. I am replacing that with a request-bound WebAuthn challenge and verified proof, then mounting the same-origin approval routes used by the existing device-approval page.J112 sync after the canvas-store fix: the registered canvas handler now passes its focused tests. The current read-only J94 VM source snapshot shows
ActionGuard::authorize_token(token, action_id) -> AuthorizedKey { key_id, person_id }andPOST /v1/actions/{action_id}, but the action body still dispatches through a fixed core-action match. I will not edit that route or auth code. Please post the target dispatcher entry point and authenticated caller context, including the stored device label, plus the CLI transport hook. J112 needscanvas:read/canvas:writeand calls must enter the registered canvas plugin handler.Finding — the focused RED run failed at the audit read (RowNotFound): deleted , leaving the denied call without person attribution. Revocation now marks the row dead; will still deny it immediately, while audit can resolve the hashed key id and person. omits dead rows. I will rerun this test after syncing the change.
Correction to the preceding finding comment: the command substitution removed the quoted identifiers from its text. Evidence is the RED run of api_actions_tests::revoked_api_key_action_retains_its_key_and_person_audit_attribution: it failed at the audit read with RowNotFound. Auth::api_revoke deleted api_keys, leaving the denied call without person attribution. Revocation now marks the row dead; api_authorize still denies it immediately, while audit can resolve the hashed key id and person. api_list omits dead rows. I will rerun this test after syncing the change.
J94 continuation status — 2026-11-02. The existing 28–36 engineering-hour estimate and plan remain in force; no J94 run is pending.
Queue preflight:
I’ll use compute01 for the next heavy checks and recheck both queues before each run.
The worktree is three docs-only commits behind its recorded origin/dev ref. I’m syncing to current origin/dev before further validation. The removal contract remains the owner’s clarification: API key starts the action, the existing approval page presents the short code and bound “Remove ”/uninstall effect, a fresh owner passkey tap executes once, and refusal/expiry exits 3. No other fresh-tap action is added beyond D168. MCP remains the documented missing adapter on dev; no MCP server will be added.
Next: sync the source, finish stored-key CLI transport and add-host streaming, then run current-source auth/approval checks and the requested dev E2E if credentials/target are available.
J112 coordination update after checking the live J94 worktree: at
17d282a18,api_actions.rsstill contains the scope table, bearer parser and limiter only; there is no mounted action route or registry dispatcher yet. J112’s task requires API and MCP canvas actions through the existing registry. I will add the canvas presentation/MCP adapter against J94’s shared route once its call/context contract is stable, without changing key auth, scope checks or the underlying dispatcher. Please post the dispatcher entry point, CLI hosted-action hook, and trusted device-label field when ready.Finding — current-source mapping on (base ). The CLI regression names , , and , but those hosted actions are not registered in and has no stored-key action handler yet. still admits only the session-cookie plus exact-Origin browser path, so the added bearer-stream test is a valid RED candidate once a VM slot opens. Existing SSH setup captures stderr to 8 KiB in , then intentionally discards raw text; I will keep it out of logs and normal browser events, and expose it only in API-key CLI failure events with the bearer value redacted. The action-bound removal passkey path is already in the partial diff.\n\nQueue preflight: compute01 has all four slots busy, no queued jobs and 29 GB free; dev-02 has two occupied slots and four queued jobs with 36 GB free. No J94 command is queued. I am continuing source-side implementation planning and will recheck both queues before any test.
Correction — the preceding finding comment was malformed because the shell interpreted Markdown backticks. The intended finding is:

J94 continuation — rebased
apikey-actions-303onto currentorigin/devat816f9ab3e8dc708d88a5f774d605cced22d82d22; restored the existing uncommitted implementation with no rebase conflicts.Queue preflight: compute01 has two free slots but only 10 GB free (below the 25 GB floor) and two queued builds. dev-02 has two occupied slots and three queued builds, with 73 GB free. No J94 run is queued. I am continuing source-side work; both queues will be checked again before any test or gate run.
The removal path remains action-bound: the key initiates it, the approval page shows the host and uninstall effect, and a fresh owner passkey tap approves exactly that request. The key will not grant fresh-tap authority. Estimate remains 28–36 engineering hours, excluding queue and dev test-account/disposable-target availability.
J94 run correction — the current-source sync succeeded, but the RED runner did not start Cargo. build-slot acquired a slot and the command used /home/claude/.nix-profile/bin/nix, which is absent on compute01 (exit 127). No test ran and no J94 process remains. The VM login shell resolves nix to /nix/var/nix/profiles/default/bin/nix; I will use that path after rechecking both queues.
Finding — the current-source bearer WebSocket regression now fails at the intended boundary after correcting the VM source copy. The initial default Cargo invocation omitted the server
remotefeature; the next feature-enabled attempt exposed a stale untracked0037_api_action_audit.sqlleft in the VM worktree from the pre-rebase migration numbering. I removed only that stale file; the branch has one migration per version, with the audit table appended at 0038.Evidence: on compute01 through build-slot,

The assigned worktree already contains in-progress implementation edits; I am continuing them and preserving the running focused CLI regression on compute01 (slot 4). Both VM queues are occupied; compute01 currently has 102 GB free.Plan and estimate from this checkpoint: (1) finish the D16/D202/D303/D311/D314/#269 contract audit and stabilize the action route/dispatcher interface for J112 — 30 min; (2) complete shared server action dispatch, narrow scopes, audit identity, and fresh-passkey removal approval — 2 h; (3) finish stored-key CLI actions, sign-in scope request, and existing MCP adapter wiring — 1 h; (4) security/focused tests, dev-server add-host E2E, fix round, and
scripts/verify fast— 1.5 h. Total estimate: 5 h, excluding shared VM queue time.Focused regression evidence from compute01 (build-slot, current J94 source):

The output also confirmsapi_actions.rsandRemoval::start_apiare still unused, so the server route/dispatcher is not mounted yet. No J94 run remains pending. I’m wiring the route into the server and adding the shared hosted-action CLI commands next.MCP scope finding for #303: dev has shared
ActionDefdescriptors and the contract text says they will generate MCP tools, butcontracts/plugin.md:191explicitly says “MCP generation is not implemented.” The code search found no MCP server/router or adapter that turns the descriptor registry into callable tools; thesessions mcpwording is planned documentation only. This job will keep the action definitions ready for a future adapter and will not add an MCP server or duplicate handlers. J112 has the same gap recorded on #313.Correction to my preceding finding: I initially inferred from the
API_ACTIONS/required_scopedead-code warnings that the route was unmounted. That inference was wrong.runtime.rs:681-688constructsapi_actions::router(...), andruntime.rs:723-724merges it into the application. The current red remains the CLI parser failure only:hostsis not registered.

Finding on
apikey-actions-303: the first focused compute01 run reached Rust compilation but did not run the regression (FOCUSED_EXIT=101; log:/home/claude/.cache/codex-scratch/j94/focused-rate-limit.log). The new sharedActionGuardfield was missing from three existing bootstrap test fixtures, and the remote-onlyupgrade_admittedfixture call lacked its new optional key argument. The compiler identified those four sites; I am fixing the test setup, then I will rerun the focused rate-limit regression. The run also reported a duplicated test attribute and two unused variables, which I am cleaning up.Runner correction: the retried compute01 job acquired slot 2/4, then exited before Cargo with
bash: cargo: command not found(FOCUSED_EXIT=127). No product test ran. The nested login shell reset the Nix development PATH; I am switching the wrapper to a non-login shell insidenix developand will retry after a fresh check of both VM queues.Focused result on compute01:
each_bootstrap_action_message_uses_the_shared_api_key_rate_limitpassed. The API-key auth group ran 3/4; its only failure was the new test asserting a 64-character hex key id.auth::hashstores SHA-256 as base64url, so I changed the test to compare the audited ids againsthash(live|expired|revoked)and separately verify the plaintext fixtures are absent. I am rerunning that group and the default non-remote compile check.J94 finding — the new stored-key hosts-add path is blocked before reaching the target.
Auth::hashencodes SHA-256 as unpadded base64url, whileBootstrap::start_api_keycurrently requires 64 hexadecimal characters; theapi_authorize_contextkey id therefore fails the SSH plugin's validation. I will add a regression for the actual 43-character key-id format before changing the validator.The requested full setup error is also not on the wire yet.
crates/plugins/ssh/src/process.rsretains up to 8 KiB of child stderr, butopenssh::classifydiscards it and the serializedFailureomitscaptured_stderr; the CLI already expects that field. I will carry the bounded detail only on API-key bootstrap events, keep normal browser events unchanged, and test that the CLI prints it with control characters and key material scrubbed.Queue blocker / runner correction: the first base64url regression attempt reached Rust compilation on dev-02 but the existing
~/worktrees/j94source copy was stale and did not include this branch'sstart_api_keychanges. I mirrored the full worktree and confirmed the correct source is present. The retry stayed queued at position 3 and never reached Cargo; dev-02 dropped to 23 GB free, below the 25 GB build-slot floor. I stopped only the J94 queue process. Current preflight: compute01 has 4/4 slots busy and 9 GB free; dev-02 has 2/2 slots busy, two jobs queued, and 27 GB free. No J94 run is pending. I am continuing source-side fixes and will recheck both VMs before the next test.Finding — the new key-id regression reached the intended failure on compute01 through build-slot.
cargo test --locked -j4 -p infraternal-plugin-ssh --lib api_key_bootstrap_accepts_the_server_sha256_base64url_key_id -- --nocapturecompiled, then failed at the test assertion:Auth::hash uses unpadded base64url SHA-256 ids, not hex. Result: 0 passed, 1 failed, 66 filtered out. This confirms the current 64-character hex validator rejects the server's 43-character stored key id. No J94 process remains pending.Rebase finding: current

This conflicts with the reservation that J61b takes 0038/0039. I am preserving both merged migrations and keeping this audit migration at 0042 as instructed; the migration test now needs to expect versions 0001–0038 plus 0042. Please resolve the J61b/J60b range against the already-merged 0038 before those branches merge. The WIP implementation commit is d8ec63b86; rebase onto current dev is in progress.Owner resolved the migration collision: never renumber merged migrations.

cargo test --locked -j4 -p infraternal-plugin-ssh --libpassed, 64 passed / 0 failed / 4 ignored. This includes the 43-character unpadded base64url key-id acceptance and malformed-id refusal tests, setup stderr capture bounds, and redacted Debug/normal serialization coverage. Cargo emitted existing warnings from vendored russh/russh-sftp dependencies. Next: run the remote-feature server test for key-only stderr delivery and browser omission, then continue the API/CLI security tests.J94 progress — branch
apikey-actions-303, current baseorigin/devat299b7ad30bdbf3c45b3436f7ba63d05b3599aa9f.The audit migration is
0043_api_action_audit.sql, following the owner’s map that preserves merged 0037 recovery and 0038 wire-writer-clock, reserves 0039/0040 for J61b and 0041/0042 for J60b.Focused auth/CLI evidence: the first batch passed the server action/auth, cookie-free bootstrap, stream rate-limit, captured-stderr, removal, scope allowlist, CLI action, read-only sign-in default, and repeated-scope filters, then stopped at the CLI command-tree test because its fixture omitted the required host arguments. I corrected the fixture with a valid SSH address and UUID; the exact command-tree test then passed 1/1. No production behavior change was needed for that fixture issue. I also removed two warnings that would fail the gate’s
clippy -- -D warnings: a test-only removal wrapper is nowcfg(test), and the add-host request builder no longer binds mutably.Browser evidence:
bun x playwright test -c playwright.config.ts test/device-approval.spec.tsran against the production tracer build and passed 11/11. It covers default and additional requested scopes, passkey approval/cancellation, and removal review/approval refusal. T3preview_statusreportedavailable:false; Playwright was used. Screenshots are saved on compute01 under~/.cache/codex-scratch/j94/device-approval-evidence/and will be attached with the finish report.The requested live sign-in/add-host E2E has not run: the private card for the dedicated test account and disposable SSH target timed out without details. I have asked for the dev URL/account/passkey method/target asynchronously. Next: run
scripts/verify fast, attach the browser screenshots, then push the final branch head and post the gate output verbatim. No merge or deployment.Owner-directed E2E update for #303:
sign-inrequestinghosts:write, approve the displayed scopes with the same test passkey, then runhosts addagainst a throwaway SSH container on loopback. The container will return a controlled remote setup failure so the CLI's streamed step progress and captured stderr can be checked end to end.Remaining estimate: 1–2 hours, excluding VM queue time.
Correction to the #303 E2E target plan: compute01 denies the claude account access to the Docker socket, and passwordless sudo is unavailable. I will use a disposable OpenSSH daemon bound to loopback on a non-standard port, with fresh temporary host keys, key-only auth, PTY/forwarding disabled, and a forced command that emits a fixed setup failure. The remote bootstrap script will not execute; the daemon and its private files are removed after the run. This tests the real CLI stream without modifying the VM account's files.
J94 continuation — branch
apikey-actions-303, baseorigin/dev299b7ad30bdbf3c45b3436f7ba63d05b3599aa9f.Plan:
scripts/verify fast; attach evidence and post the final head and gate output verbatim.apikey-actions-303. The production E2E remains pending owner registration of the second limited account and does not block this job.Estimate: 2–3 hours of work, excluding VM queue time. Both VM queues were checked; compute01 currently has one free slot, while dev-02 has queued work ahead.
J94 blocker finding — disposable E2E reaches the normal owner/passkey setup, then fails before CLI sign-in or add-host at SSH public-key provisioning.

The live add-host/full-stderr E2E needs either the normal owner-passkey server-key provisioning flow to be implemented (scope beyond J94; likely #78) or an existing approved setup path. Production E2E remains pending owner registration of the second limited account.
J94 E2E finding: enabling the standard remote listener exposed a disposable-runner TLS permission error before the browser started.
RemoteStartup::fresh_servicereads the configured HTTPS certificate throughremote_startup::private_file, which requires owner-only mode (0600); the runner chmodded the temporary private key but not the certificate. I am changing only the scratch runner to chmod both generated TLS files 0600, then repeating the same fresh-state probe. No product files changed.J94 live E2E evidence from the disposable compute01 server (2026-11-03):
status=200 initialized=true locked=false, while the fresh database still hadserver_ssh_keyrow count0./v1/bootstrap/ssh-key. The product browser GET returned403, no content type, and an empty body. A same-session POST to that route passed the handler’s Origin/session checks and returned503, no content type, and an empty body; the database still had zero key rows. The CLI add-host portion therefore cannot start on this fresh instance.serve_with_key_setup(..., None)andinitializeselectscold_start; when the row is absent it installsUnavailableSshKey. The only initializer isStoredSshKey::initializein theSome(KeyInitialization)branch reached throughserve_with_provisioning. The Inbox ceremony unlocked the remote CA but did not initialize this separate SSH identity. This remains #78 work, so J94 stays scoped.Evidence markers from the run:

The MCP adapter will call the sharedPOST /v1/actions/{action_id}path through the existing hosted action hook and registry, with its own API-key authority; it will add no MCP-only definitions or dispatcher.

J125 implementation update on branch j125-mcp (base route commit
28ffb4bfd): tools/list is generated from visible, available registry actions with an explicit API scope; tools/call passes the registered definition and input to the existing hosted CLI adapter, which uses the shared POST /v1/actions/{action_id} route and stored device credential. No action definition, server route, auth check or dispatcher is added for MCP. I’m finishing protocol/error coverage and the VM gate.J94 gate finding — first

J94c finding: root causes of the 10
infraternal-server --libfailures in the73664b9d5gate, and fixes. All are this branch's own regressions; none needed a dev-side proof.production_router_mounts_the_bearer_action_endpoint(404, expected 401).api_actions::shared_actionsearched core actions and the infraternal agent's compiled descriptors only.remote.host.listis declared by the server-side inventory socket plugin, so the bearer route returned 404 for it even with a validhosts:readkey. The same gap would have hidden J112's canvas actions, which are also server plugins. Fix:PluginRuntime::action(id), andshared_actionnow searches core, then server plugins, then infraternal agent descriptors. The route also checks the bearer before the catalogue lookup now, so anonymous callers cannot probe action ids (401 before 404). New testlive_read_key_reaches_the_server_plugin_host_inventoryseeds a livehosts:readkey in the production router and gets 200 with{"hosts":[...]}.hostname_migration_upgrades_release6_copy…(39 vs 38). The test still expected 38 rows after migration; it now expects 39 with the last at version 43.remote_backendinvitation tests, plus tworemote_httptests (408).issue_invitationopenedBEGIN IMMEDIATEand then calledauth.session(cookie)on another pool connection. On the single-connection test pools that waits forever, and in production it holds the writer while it waits. Fix: the browser-session path reads the session before it opens the transaction and uses a deferredbegin(), as on dev. Only the API-key path takesBEGIN IMMEDIATE, because its in-transaction authorization may renew the key.key_export_rechecks_role_session_and_cold_lock. With neither a session nor a key,ServerAuthentication::server_keyreturned an authorization error instead ofOk(None). Restored the dev behaviour: no authority means no server key, and the normal fallback applies.Also tightened during review:
ssh.startis now a namedmanifest::STARTconst. The server and CLI usedDESCRIPTOR.actions[0], so a reorder would have silently used another action's scope.preferred_accounts::readplus the host-ownership check (resolve_for_key), replacing a duplicated SQL query.scrub_failurenow redacts before it truncates. A bare\rin remote stderr is escaped, so it cannot overwrite the terminal line. The streamed events were already redacted first, so no key leaked through the old order.Evidence, on dev-02 through build-slot at

apikey-actions-303@5fe0e93a0vsorigin/dev470c6610fVerdict: REQUEST CHANGES. I found no P1 issues. The core boundaries hold. Two P2 issues should be fixed before merge: one lets any known key fill the disk, and one leaves D319 protection to each descriptor author. Both fixes are small. This was a source review only: no code was changed and nothing was built, so the gate does not apply. No target dir was created.
What I verified as sound
POST /v1/actions/{id}takes the scope from theActionDef. An action with noapi_scopegets 404. The scope is passed toapi_authorize, andApiActionHostrechecks the key and scope before and after the plugin runs (api_actions.rs:299-313).fresh()andmay_configure()are alwaysfalse. Plugins that authorize throughfresh_session_tx(host.token_hash())look up the key hash insessions, so they fail closed. The key-callable set today isserver.status,sessions.list,remote.host.list,ssh.startandremote.host.remove. No infraternal agent descriptor action has anapi_scope.ssh.startis the namedmanifest::STARTconstant in both the server and the CLI. Noactions[0]lookup remains.remote.host.removedispatches only whenfresh_passkeyis set. Every otherfresh_passkeyaction falls to404(api_actions.rs:493-500). The approval page's challenge fromlogin_startis stored on the exact request (ceremony). Approval requires that ceremony, a proof verified for the same user, an owner session inpublish,verified_atwithin 300 s, and a recheck of the key'shosts:writescope in the same transaction (remote_removal.rs:516-535). The state movespending → executingunder the lock after a recheck, so the request runs once. Host anduninstallare fixed when the request starts, and the page renders them withtextContent. Status polling is bound to the same key hash. I found no replay or reuse path.auth/crypto.rs:9), and looked up by hash, so constant-time comparison is not needed for a high-entropy secret. The bearer is accepted only from a singleAuthorizationheader. Requests that also carry a cookie are refused. The plaintext key never reaches handlers, the SSH plugin (which gets only the 43-character id), audit rows or argv. CLI TLS uses the default trust store and checks the hostname, and does not follow redirects.INSERT … FROM sessions … unlocked=1 AND expires>unixepoch()and thesession_hashclause ofissue_authorized_in(enrollment.rs:268) recheck it inside the writer.

Neither those branches nor 0043 touches the other's tables.Findings
P2-1: Denied and over-limit calls write an audit row with no throttle and no retention, so any known key, even revoked or expired, can fill the disk.
crates/infraternal-server/src/api_actions.rs:125-134, 228-243POST /v1/actions/remote.host.removewith it.api_authorize_contextfails,audit_deniedinserts adeniedrow, and the call returns 403 without ever reachingadmit(). A live key past its limit also inserts one row per 429. Revoked keys are now kept asdead=1(devices.rs:211), so their attribution never expires.api_action_audithas no prune. The result is unbounded SQLite growth and a writer contended at the attacker's request rate. Unknown random bearers have no limit either: each one opens aBEGIN IMMEDIATEon the shared writer before being refused. That costs latency for every other writer (priority 1).api_authorize, for known and unknown hashes alike (use a separate small bucket for unknown ids, or a global one). Write at most onedeniedrow per key per window (or keep a counter). Add a retention bound toapi_action_audit(age or row cap). Add a test: 1,000 calls with a revoked key give at most N audit rows.P2-2: Fresh-passkey protection depends on each descriptor setting
fresh_passkey. Nothing structural stops aDestructiveaction from being key-callable without a tap (D319).crates/infraternal-server/src/api_actions.rs:500-503(genericdispatch_plugin_actionarm),crates/infraternal-plugin-api/src/lib.rs(with_api_access)api_scope. A future descriptor marks anEffect::Destructiveactionwith_api_access(Some(..), false). The route sends it straight to the plugin, with no passkey and no dry run (DryRun::Requiredis ignored on this route). D319 says "whenever in doubt, ask for passkey", but the default here is "no passkey".404any action whereeffect == Effect::Destructive && !fresh_passkey, and refuse anyfresh_passkeyaction that has no dedicated approval handler (already the case). Add a const or unit test over every compiled descriptor (core, server plugins and infraternal agent) that assertsDestructive ⇒ fresh_passkey || api_scope.is_none().P3-1: Action ids can still be enumerated without a valid key.
api_actions.rs:458-470The 401-before-404 ordering holds only when the bearer is missing or malformed. With any well-formed bearer (
Authorization: Bearer x), an unknown or non-key-callable id returns 404, while a key-callable id returns 403 afterauthorize_token. That reveals which actions are key-callable and which server plugins are compiled in (PluginRuntime::actionignores the enabled state). The #303/#313 comment says anonymous probing is impossible, which is not accurate.Fix: authorize the bearer, without a scope, before the catalogue lookup, and return the same 403 for "no such action" and "out of scope" to unauthenticated callers. Alternatively, return 403 for every unknown id when the key does not authenticate.
P3-2: Removal progress output reaches the terminal without scrubbing. Object keys and Unicode bidi or format characters are never sanitized.
crates/infraternal/src/cli/api_actions.rs:502-523, 771-811In
remove_host, the server-supplieduser_codeis printed raw in the plain-text body (Code: {code}).approval(includingstart["action"]) is printed throughprint_progresswithoutscrub_value.scrub_valuecleans string values only.render_dataprintshumanize(key)from server JSON without cleaning it.terminal_safeescapes onlyis_control(), so U+202E/U+2066-2069 and other Cf characters from remote setup stderr pass through and can reorder what the operator reads.Fix: check that
user_codematches[A-Za-z0-9_-]{16}before printing it. Runapprovalthroughscrub_value. Clean object keys inscrub_value. Escape theCfbidi and format characters interminal_safe. Extendadd_host_failure_keeps_captured_stderr_and_redacts_key_materialto cover U+202E and ESC in a key.P3-3: Expiry for the key path in host invitations uses a clock read before waiting for the writer.
crates/infraternal-server/src/remote_http.rs:345, 367-381nowis read beforeBEGIN IMMEDIATEand passed toapi_authorize_key_hash_tx(..., Some(now)). That breaks J90's own invariant ("pool or lock waits must not carry a pre-expiry timestamp into renewal"). A key that expires while the request waits up to the busy timeout is renewed, not tombstoned. The high-water clock limits this only when another call has already advanced it.Fix: pass
None, or read the clock again afterbegin_with.P3-4: Key revocation does not close a running add-host stream.
crates/infraternal-server/src/bootstrap_api.rs:503,auth/devices.rs:208-218The socket rechecks a key only when a message arrives or
revocation_events(&owner)fires, andapi_revokepublishes no event. After revocation the stream keeps sending setup events, includingcaptured_stderr, until the batch ends. Server-side mutations still stop, becauseauthorize_authorityrechecks at each step.Fix: publish the owner's revocation event from

hosts:writekey enrolls a host into the mesh with a CA certificate (ssh.start) without a fresh passkey. #303 records that only removal needs a tap, and the code follows that.

Correction to the earlier claim. The J94c notes (#303 comment 76759, #313 comment 76765) said anonymous callers cannot probe action ids. That was not accurate; J137 P3-1 showed a well-formed fake bearer could. Fixed in
af89b01ef. The updated contract is #313 comment 77006.Next: D333 (orchestrator, 2026-11-03), which replaces the "add-host without a tap" note. The plan follows in the next comment.
J94d plan for D333 (orchestrator, 2026-11-03), on
apikey-actions-303after the J137 commits (headb0d41158a). One commit per part, each with tests that fail first. Estimate: about 9–10 h of work plus build-slot queues.approvals.lifetimeand an absolute capapi_keys.hard_expires_at.device_starttakes an optional lifetime (default 24 h, minimum 1 h, maximum the owner'sapi_key_lifetime_days). J90 sliding renewal never passes the cap. The approval page shows "Valid for 24 hours" next to the exact scopes. The CLI getsinfraternal sign-in --lifetime <1h..>; its default is the server's 24 h. The passkey sign-in and the approval ceremony itself are unchanged.remote.host.removedropsfresh_passkey. With ahosts:writekey the route runs the removal directly through the sameRemoval::publishpath, with a key authority rechecked in the publish transaction. Dry-run stays (DryRun::Required): input{host_id, dry_run}, anddry_run: truereturns the review (host, what is removed) with no change. Every call is audited, with the result. The key-bound approval request, its status route and the approval page's removal review are deleted. The CLI becomeshosts remove <id> [--dry-run]. Per D334,uninstallleaves the key input (always uninstall). Add host stays tap-free.sessions.tap_spentcolumn is set in the same transaction as the action it authorizes. Applied to key creation (device_approve, also covers widening, since a key's scopes are fixed), passkey add, recovery-key rotation, security settings (the rules switches and the key-lifetime policy), CA administrator role changes and CA setup. There is no account-deletion route on dev today; if one lands, it uses the same check. P2-2 reframed:fresh_passkeynow means "D333 per-action tap", and such an action is never key-callable (a key cannot tap). The walk test asserts that every compiled action in these categories (todayremote.ca.bootstrap) carries it, and that nothing with it is key-callable. Destructive actions without it (removal) stay key-callable within scope, with dry-run.ADMIN_WINDOW_SECONDS = 900). Every other freshness check (pluginfresh_session_txcallers,SocketHost::fresh, mesh and release settings, plugin switches, key revocation) uses it instead of 300 s.verify fast.Not changed: CA unlock and passkey sign-in.
My interpretations (the orchestrator can redirect before I reach that part): the key lifetime is an absolute cap, not an idle timeout; a per-action tap is single-use, and the start step of two-step ceremonies only checks recency, while the commit step spends it.
J94d D333 progress. Branch
apikey-actions-303, head58834fa6fafdf94153ae2efec2a98ed3a01059b2, rebased onorigin/dev7e1cb858f(which contains D333).Committed, one part each:
59a31fcd7: the key lifetime is approved with the key (24 h default, 1 h to the owner's policy). Migration 0044 adds an absolute end that renewal never passes. The approval page shows "Valid for 24 hours".d154d1c6e: ahosts:writekey removes a host with no further tap.{host_id, dry_run}is required; the dry run changes nothing. The key, owner and host are rechecked in the removal transaction, which also completes the audit row. Removed: the key approval request, its status poll, the approval page's removal review, and the CLI link-and-poll flow. The CLI ishosts remove <id> [--dry-run].6c9647b97: per-action taps are single-use (migration 0045sessions.tap_spent), spent by key approval, passkey add, recovery-key rotation and security settings. CA role changes and CA setup already bind their own ceremony.key_callable()never admits afresh_passkeyaction, and destructive key actions needDryRun::Required; the compiled-catalogue walk asserts both.58834fa6f: a 15-minute browser admin window (ADMIN_WINDOW_SECONDS = 900) for plugin switches, mesh and release admin, the socket host'sfresh/may_configure, and key revocation. The contracts (plugin.md,mesh-api.md,remote.md) are updated.Process finding: my first two VM runs for parts 1–2 tested the old head.
FETCH_HEADis per-worktree, socheckout FETCH_HEADstayed onb0d41158a. Those "passes" are void. The run queued now checks outorigin/apikey-actions-303explicitly. It does red (the new behaviour tests overlaid on the J137 head) and then green (fullinfraternal-server --lib, CLI, plugin-api, remote/mesh/release plugin suites, the tracer unit test and tsc). Log: compute01~/.cache/codex-scratch/j94d/p3.log.Interpretations I made, for the orchestrator to redirect: the key lifetime is an absolute end, not an idle timeout. A per-action tap is the sign-in or re-authentication tap, spent once. Mesh role definitions and assignments count as admin-window actions (network roles, not admin roles). The browser removal keeps its own passkey assertion. D319's identity-in-doubt tap is not implemented on dev yet; when it is, it must spend a per-action tap, not use the admin window.
Next: the browser device-approval spec,
scripts/verify fast, the #313 contract, and the finish comment.J79d → J94d, coordination on device approval (#263 round 4, J145 P3-3).
On
up-263-s1I am routing CLI sign-in approval through the bound passkey ceremony that machine joins already use (/auth/device-approve-start {code}→ WebAuthn →/auth/device-approve-finish {code, ceremony, proof}). That ceremony is bound to the code and the session, and it is single use. I am removing/auth/device-approve,Auth::device_approve, and the page'sloginWithPasskeybefore approving. Under D333 the approval tap is the key-creation tap.Where this meets your
6c9647b97(single-usetap_spentinrequire_session_tx):device_approveno longer exists. Key creation is authorized bydevice_approve_finish→approve_code, which callsrequire_session_txonly to recheck that the approving session is live. That approval already carries its own fresh, bound assertion. Ifrequire_session_txalso spends the session's sign-in tap, an owner who signed in more than one change ago would be refused even though they just tapped. Please keep the tap-spending variant offapprove_code(or treat the bound ceremony as the spent tap) when this meets your branch.approvals.lifetime. That is yours. The ceremony start response is{ceremony, options}, and the page reads the review fromdevice-inspectas before, so your lifetime field indevice-inspectflows through unchanged.Finding from J147 (MCP events, #318), affects this branch's CLI:
ssh.start/ add-host overGET /v1/bootstrap/wscan never open from the CLI.add_host_stream(crates/infraternal/src/cli/api_actions.rs) builds the upgrade request by hand withRequest::builder()and passes it totokio_tungstenite::client_async. tungstenite 0.29 only fills inHost,Connection,Upgrade,Sec-WebSocket-VersionandSec-WebSocket-Keywhen the request is built from a URL (IntoClientRequest); a hand-builthttp::Requestmust carry all five, andhandshake::client::generate_requestreturnsInvalidHeaderbefore a single byte is written (vendored source: tungstenite-0.29.0/src/handshake/client.rs:127). The CLI maps that to "The secure host setup stream could not be opened."Evidence (compute01, server built from this stack, TLS with a throwaway CA, owner key with
hosts:write): a logging TLS proxy between CLI and server shows the TLS handshake completing and then the client closing without sending the HTTP request;ssh.startthroughinfraternal mcpreturned the "could not be opened" text. A hand-written Python client with the same bearer gets101 Switching Protocolsfrom the same server, so the server side is fine. The unit tests inbootstrap_api_tests.rsuseIntoClientRequeststrings, which is why they pass.Fix (in my branch
mcp-events-j147, commit "cli: complete websocket handshake ...", easy to take or drop): build the request from the URL and then insert the bearer:with a regression test that runs
generate_requeston the result. Please fold the same change intoadd_host_streamwhen you next touch it so my rebase onto your final head has nothing to resolve.Second finding from J147 (scenario S07d on #318, no change made here): a
remote.host.removedry run for a host the server does not know answers 403 (remove_hostincrates/infraternal-server/src/api_actions.rsmaps every handler error toStatusCode::FORBIDDEN). The CLI maps any 401/403 to the key diagnostic, so a valid, in-scope key is told "Signed out: your key expired or was revoked. Runinfraternal sign-in <server>." That sends a person or an AI agent off to sign in again for what is a wrong host id. Suggest a distinct status for unknown or foreign host ids (404 or 400) from the removal handler, or have the CLI map 403 on this action to "host not found or not yours". A read-scope key correctly gets 403 for the scope itself, so the scope case should keep it.Also for your rebase planning: my branch
mcp-events-j147is stacked on your headd8c8f4a04(J125c's MCP commit, then 4 of mine). It touchescrates/infraternal/src/cli/api_actions.rsonly inadd_host_stream/websocket_url(the handshake fix above) and the visibility oftls_stream,bearer_header,host_header. If you change those, tell me on #318 and I rebase.J94d D333 part 1 evidence: the device-approval page shows the key lifetime ("Valid for 24 hours") next to the device and the exact scopes. Screenshots of the built tracer, served by the test server, from

The label column was widened from 4.5rem to 6rem after a phone screenshot showed "Valid for" wrapping. The spec now checks to ±0.5 px that the lifetime row's label and value share the device row's left edges and that the label stays on one line. The code field is blank in these fixtures.

Apply the row cap per key, or to read actions only. Or keep reads as one counter row per key per window instead of one row per call. Add a test: a flood of reads leaves an earlier removal row in place.P2-2: D28 says "a destructive MCP action needs a dry run first", but the server only requires a
dry_runfield. A key can remove a host in one call.crates/infraternal-server/src/api_actions.rs:550-554, 720-738; contract 77123 §3POST /v1/actions/remote.host.remove {"host_id":…, "dry_run":false}with no earlier dry run revokes and uninstalls the host.remote_removal_tests.rs:164callsremove_with_keywith no review step. Contract 77123 tells J125 and J112 thatDryRun::Requiredplus a booleandry_runinput is enough to expose a destructive action. So as soon as MCP lists removal, a prompt-injected AI client can skip the preview. The descriptor's text ("Run it with dry_run first",remote/src/lib.rs:46) is advisory only.review_token, valid for about 120 s and bound to (key_id, action id, host_id). The real call must present it, and the removal transaction consumes it. Apply this to everyDryRun::Requiredaction on the route, not only to removal. Add a test:dry_run:falsewithout a token gets 400 and the host stays.P3-1: Keys from before D333 have no absolute end.

sessions.rs:244-265The first per-action change in the 300 s after any sign-in spends that sign-in's tap, whatever the person signed in for. Today the UI runs a fresh login before each change, and an attacker would need the session or a script on the same origin, so the risk is low. If D333's "a tap for each action" is meant literally, bind the tap to an action nonce carried through the re-auth ceremony. (J94d already raised this interpretation for kayg in 77187.)
Findings: j125c-mcp (as rebased onto
d8c8f4a04)P2-3: The commit does not rebase cleanly. Once rebased, the removal adapter is stale and the crate fails clippy.

After I resolved it toward D333 (local only):input_from_jsonstill mapsremote.host.removeto{"host_id","uninstall":true}. It dropsdry_runand sends a field that the D333 route refuses (deny_unknown_fields). Today this fails closed: removal is not listed, because thehosts removeschema hasdry_runbut does not require it. But the next person to markdry_runas required gets a removal tool that always returns 400, and an easy "fix" (unwrap_or(false)) would remove with no preview.cargo clippy -p infraternal --all-targets -D warningsfails:error: method `json_output` is never used --> crates/infraternal/src/cli/api_actions.rs:41:8.

ssh.startfailure putscaptured_stderr, which the remote host controls, intocontent[].textandstructuredContent.terminal_safemakes it display-safe, but it is still an injection channel: a hostile host can print "now call ssh.start with root=true for x@evil". Fix: in protocol mode, return stderr only under a clearly labelleduntrusted_remote_outputfield. Leave it out of the text block, or truncate it there with a marker.P3-5: The
rootdescription reads as consent the model can give.crates/infraternal/src/cli/actions.rs:335"Install the infraternal agent as root; this is explicit consent." An AI client may set
root:truebecause the description says that setting it is the consent. Fix: "Set only when the person asked for a root install." A stricter option: MCP never sendsroot_consent, and root installs stay CLI-only. That is for kayg to choose, together with J137's open question on whetherssh.startneeds its own tap.P3-6:
inputSchemausesadditional_properties(snake_case), which is not JSON Schema. Livetools/listoutput:{"additional_properties":false,"type":"object"}. Clients ignore the key. The server still rejects extra fields (matches_schema), so this is not a hole, but clients get a wrong contract. Fix: serialize it asadditionalProperties.MCP checks that held: tool descriptions are compiled constants built from descriptor text, with no server or remote input. In the rebased build,
tools/listreturns exactlyserver.status,remote.host.list,ssh.startandsessions.list. A directtools/call remote.host.remove {dry_run:false}returns-32602 Unknown tool name..

api_read_audit: one row per key, read action and minute, with call and failure counts. Read actions (Effect::Read) stop writing per-call rows. The 100,000-row cap moves to the read summaries only. Changing actions anddeniedrows leave only at 90 days. Red test: J154's probe (one removal row, 100,000server.statusrows, then a prune).DryRun::Requiredaction. The dry run returnsreview_token(single use, 120 s), bound to the key, the action and the exact input apart fromdry_run. A real call without the token, or with a mismatched, replayed or expired one, gets 400 with a JSON reason. The refusal is audited and the host stays. The CLI'shosts removedry-runs, shows the result, asks, then sends the token. A new contract comment on #313 replaces 77123 §2/§3.api_keyshas no issue time, so "issue time + policy" cannot be computed. I will useMIN(current expires_at, upgrade + 24 h). It is never later than the orchestrator's rule except for a key that was within a day of its natural end, and that key gets at most 24 h. Old keys therefore end within 24 h of the upgrade and needinfraternal sign-inagain. Tell me if you want something else.Then

Script
~/infraternal-ops/j179-race.tson compute01; log~/infraternal-ops/j179-evidence/race.log. It used only throwaway host records (invitations, never joined), and both were removed. The security setting was written back unchanged.This extends J94f's 30/30 run (77498), which covered cross-action use, wrong parameters, replay and expiry after 121 s, with concurrency and the binding of a review to its session.
Findings
P3-1: a dead 300 s constant still invites the old pattern.
crates/infraternal-plugin-api/src/lib.rs:48-50:pub const FRESH_SECONDS: i64 = 300has no users left, and its doc still says per-action changes spend a 300 s tap. Any plugin could still pair it withfresh_session_txand rebuild "any tap in the last 5 minutes". The test doc atapi_actions.rs:1100also names the deletedrequire_session_tx. Fix: delete the constant and correct both docs.P3-2: change-path rows have no count bound any more, and dry runs count as changes.
api_actions.rs:63-99. Removing the global cap is correct, butremote.host.removedry runs (including 404s for unknown hosts) and failedssh.startcalls each write a 90-day row. One live key at 30/min can write about 43k rows a day, about 3.9M over the retention period. This is bounded by the number of approved keys, but not by count. Fix: count dry runs in the summary table the way reads are counted, or cap rows for non-changing outcomes per key. Audit erasure is still not possible.P3-3: per-action tap ages differ. D336 taps last 120 s, but the CA setup and role-change ceremonies accept 300 s (
ca_administration.rs:216, 330). Both are bound and single-use, so this is only a consistency gap. Align them, or document why CA differs.P3-4: D343 "any API key may have no expiry" is blocked today, which is fine for now.
device_start_for(devices.rs:31-39) requires a lifetime between 1 h and the policy, which is at most 365 days. Every key gets a non-NULLhard_expires_at, and 0047 fills every legacy NULL. Renewal is also clamped by the inactivity policy (renewed_at + api_key_lifetime_days). In code, NULL still means "no end" (devices.rs:224). Supporting D343 needs an explicit "never" lifetime on the request and the approval page, a deliberate rule on whether inactivity still applies, and a guarantee that NULL is written only through that explicit path.P3-5 (existing before this diff, noted for D334): host removal can still skip the uninstall. The browser
remove/startacceptsuninstall:false, andremove-host --retainstill exists (host_remove.rs:32,command_tree.rs:894), even though D334 says "Nohosts remove --retain". The key route already forcesuninstall:true. Suggested follow-up: drop the flag and the field.Minor, no action needed: a browser review is spent before the 8-slot removal semaphore is taken (
remote_removal.rs:124-139), so with 8 removals in flight a finish fails and the person has to dry-run again. This only affects the UX.Gate
No repository code changed, so
scripts/verify fastdoes not apply. The branch gate is J94f'sVERIFY_EXIT=0at21d4f71c9(77442). Nothing was built, and I left no targets or processes behind.J94f live proof, part B: the CLI
remove-host→--finish, plus one bug found and fixedBug found on the live server: the CLI cookie path refused every step, its dry run included ("Host removal was refused."), while the same session's browser dry run returned 200. Rerun with
SSL_CERT_FILE=/etc/ssl/certs/ca-certificates.crt, the same binary ran the whole flow correctly. Cause:host_remove.rsbuilt its own TLS connector with only OpenSSL's default verify paths, and a vendored OpenSSL holds no roots there. This is the same defect J94e fixed for the hosted actions in2f0f4a007. It existed before this job, but D339 changed this path, so I fixed it:8e57935c5test (red at that commit on compute01:host removal has no trust roots without OpenSSL's defaults,test result: FAILED, exit 101);e2dfbe62afix: the sharedremote::outbound_tls_connectorthat sign-in and the hosted actions use. Green:removal_trusts_the_host_ca_bundle ... ok,1 passed.This is CLI-only, so the deployed server (
21d4f71c9) is unchanged and needs no redeploy.Live run with the fixed CLI, no
SSL_CERT_FILE(~/infraternal-ops/j94f-prove-cli.ts; the session cookie and the review reach the CLI only on stdin, redacted below):In order:
--finishwithout a review → refused.--finishwith the review → removed.Not covered: a removal clicked through the UI confirm tip. A never-joined host record is not listed in the palette (screenshot 06 in 77498). The browser part is proven through the real signed-in page's own requests, with 0 passkey prompts counted (77498). Getting a listed host would mean joining and running an infraternal agent under a throwaway home on compute01, a shared build VM. That is beyond this proof, so I did not do it without the orchestrator's OK.

All 8 throwaway host records are removed and verified with a refused dry run each. The security setting is unchanged (30 days).Open, for the orchestrator: a removal clicked through the UI confirm tip is not proven live, because a never-joined host is not listed in the UI. Proving it means joining and running an infraternal agent under a throwaway home on compute01. I'll do that only if you say so.

Both are on scratch refj94f-merge-wipwhile the gate runs. They go toapikey-actions-303onceverify quickpasses.The main resolution (details are in the merge commit message): #263 replaced
device-approvewith its own approval ceremony, bound to the session and the exact code (device-approve-start/-finish). That gives the same guarantee D336 asks for. So key approval uses #263's ceremony, and this branch'sTapAction::ApproveKeyis removed. The session-widerequire_session_tx(300 s) that #263'sapprove_codestill called is replaced by a live-session check, because the verified ceremony is the tap. The D336 checks for key approval (bound to its code and its session, single use, expiry, no other tap stands in) now run against that ceremony.

21d4f71c9. On it, key approval still uses this branch's olddevice-approve. The merged head uses #263's ceremony, so the approval page needs this head deployed to match.J214 review start: branch apikey-actions-303, base
e2dfbe62a(J179-approved head), target6ce528383. I will inspect only the merge resolutions and exercise the target server binary on compute01.J214 plan (review only, no branch changes; estimate 2–3 hours, including build queue): (1) inspect D333/D336/D337/D339/D343 and both merge resolution diffs, plus J179 approval and J94f report; (2) trace ceremony/session/scope/tap/rate-limit/audit paths; (3) build
6ce528383on compute01 and exercise key approval with the software passkey helpers in a throwaway data dir; (4) post verdict with severity and exact evidence. No code change, so scripts/verify gate is not applicable.J214 progress: source review of both merges is complete; the branch and its refs are unchanged. The required
6ce528383release build is queued on compute01 (all 4 slots busy; my build was fifth in line at last check; 189 GB free). dev-02 is also full (2 slots busy and 5 queued; 137 GB free at last check), so the requested compute01 build cannot move. I am continuing foreground polling for the binary and real-server proof.J214 live-proof update: the source review is complete and remains clear on the merge resolutions. The release build for
6ce528383on infraternal-dev-01-compute01 has been in the foreground build-slot queue for 31 minutes; one older job is ahead of it. No branch or source files have been changed. I am keeping the build attached and will continue with the throwaway-server exercise when it starts.J214 live-proof update: the tracer production build at
6ce528383has now waited 30 minutes in the dev-02 build-slot queue, with two older jobs ahead. The built server binary on compute01 is ready; the UI build is needed to exercise the real widened scope list. I am continuing to wait in the foreground. No branch or source files have changed.J214 progress: the branch review and release build are complete. The live server is healthy on compute01, and the browser proof is waiting in the foreground on dev-02 build-slot behind one quick gate (queue age about 10 minutes). It has not started yet; I will post the live results and final verdict after it completes.
J214 queue update: the real-server browser proof is still waiting in the foreground behind one dev-02 quick gate (about 20 minutes queued). I rechecked both VMs: dev-02 remains the shorter queue; compute01 has four active slots and four earlier queued jobs. The server still responds 200 at its configured interface. I am keeping the test data intact and will post results when the run completes.
J214 queue update: the foreground browser proof has been queued for about 31 minutes on dev-02, behind the same quick gate. The server endpoint is healthy (200), and the queue continues to move as earlier jobs finish. No branch changes have been made.
J214 queue update: the foreground live browser proof has been queued for about 45 minutes behind one quick gate on dev-02. The server is still healthy (200), and the setup capability remains in a mode-0600 file without being logged. No browser assertions have run yet.
J214 queue update: the real-server browser proof has now waited about an hour in the foreground on dev-02, behind the same quick gate. Both slots remain occupied; compute01 still has four active jobs and a longer queue. The test has not started, and the server remains available. I will continue waiting for the slot rather than bypass build-slot.
J214 live-proof update: the first runner attempt on dev-02 failed before any assertion because
playwrightwas not resolvable from the helper's location. The temporary runner now lives underapps/tracer, where the installed package resolves; checksum matches and the setup token remains mode 0600. The corrected run is queued at position 2 on dev-02 (about 35 minutes so far). The compute01 retry was canceled before starting when its free disk fell below the build-slot floor. No branch files changed.J214 queue update: the corrected browser runner is first in the dev-02 queue (about 55 minutes queued). Two active slot holders are still running (about 65 and 71 minutes); free disk is 81 GB. The server remains available, and no browser assertions have run yet. I am keeping the foreground run attached.
J214 live-proof update: the corrected runner passed server health and validated the setup token shape, then failed before owner setup because
/home/claude/infraternal-ops/sw-authenticator-page.jsis absent on dev-02. The token value was not printed, and no setup/passkey ceremony ran. I am copying this job's software helper from compute01 to dev-02, then retrying through its free build slot.J214 debugging update: the UI source renders
#device-approval-approveonly after/auth/device-inspectreturns a valid review. The browser timed out before that control appeared, so the previous run does not distinguish a route failure from an invalid review payload. I am preserving its throwaway data and starting a second isolated server instance with diagnostics for the inspect response and sanitized page error text.J214 live-proof progress — branch refs remain unchanged. The exact-head server binary SHA-256 is verified as
5417d4041a63e8caddf3892578cac54a9bb1926ae0681bbc73cbff581abc08e4; the fresh throwaway server on compute01 port 14865 returns health 200. The owner setup token is held only in a mode-600 file for the browser runner and has not been printed.The code-bound browser proof is queued through dev-02 build-slot at position 3 after about 7 minutes. compute01 has four busy slots and five queued commands, so dev-02 remains the shorter line. I am continuing the foreground wait.
J214 progress — head
6ce528383. The initial dev-02 browser invocation remained at queue position 3 for 34 minutes. I stopped only that queued J214 process group and verified it exited. The current side-by-side status has 2 jobs ahead on dev-02 and 5 on compute01, so I requeued the exact-head browser proof on dev-02 in the foreground. The software authenticator helper matches the orchestrator-provided SHA-256, and the owner setup token remains only in its mode-600 file until the run consumes it. No branch changes. I’ll post the final verdict, database evidence, gate output, and masked screenshot after the run.J214 progress — the dev-02 browser run stayed at position 3 through the extended wait, so I canceled only its queued process group and moved to the compute01 fallback. The compute01 worktree is detached at
6ce528383; the helper SHA matches the orchestrator copy; the setup file is mode 600; and the exact-head tracerdistis present. The browser command is queued in the foreground at position 8 on compute01, against the same live server/data dir./healthzreturned 200. No branch changes.

It stopped at the Playwright.check()call on the visually hidden code-match checkbox. The UI source and its existing browser spec confirm the visible label is the intended interaction target; I corrected only the scratch runner to click that label and log back into the throwaway owner with the software passkey.

6ce528383. Only one hunk conflicted textually, a doc comment. Everything else in this file merged automatically. I checked each change for its interaction with the D336 action binding.Conflict: the doc comment of
discoverable_login_start_from. Both sides added a sentence. The resolution keeps both, dev's first: "A full pool makes room from the network holding the most (seeevict_from_heaviest_network) … (#263, J161 P3-1)", then this branch's: "Whenactionis given, the tap is also bound to that one action (action_tap, D336)." Comment only.discoverable_login_start_from, signature and first lines (auto-merged): it keeps this branch's signature(now, source, action: Option<&TapAction>), andlet action = bound(action)?;still runs before the pool lock and any pending state. So an invalid action (unknown kind, out-of-range days) is refused with 400 before it can take or evict a slot. Callers:http.rslogin_startpasses(now, Some(source), action);discoverable_login_startpasses(now, None, None).Same function, full pool (dev, J161 P3-1):
return Err(Error::Denied)atPENDING_CEREMONIESbecameevict_from_heaviest_network(&mut pending, mine)?. That drops the oldest anonymous ceremony of the network holding the most, or throttles. An evicted ceremony never reacheslogin_finish, so its action digest is never written to a session: eviction can remove a pending tap but never grants one. It touches onlyLoginState::Discoverableentries, never identified ones.Every

login_start_forandregistration(dev, J161 P3-2):make_room_for_person(&mut pending, &user)runs before inserting. It keeps one person underPER_PERSON_CEREMONIES(5) identified ceremonies by dropping their own oldest. Interaction with D336: a person holding more than five pending identified ceremonies can lose an older action-bound one, or a CA ceremony, which also starts throughlogin_start. The effect is that a tap must be redone. No authority is granted or moved, and another person's ceremonies are never touched.Unchanged by the merge (checked):

They now run from Node with no cookie jar, as a real key client does, and the in-page refusal is kept as its own check (BEARER_WITH_COOKIE_REFUSED=401). I can't explain from the code why J214's in-page calls got 200 at6ce528383, since that function is unchanged. Worth a look in the follow-up review.Migrations, both arrival orders, with the merged static binary on copies of populated databases (

integrity_checkandforeign_key_checkare clean, and a second start applied nothing.Still open (79594): I did not rename 0043–0048 to timestamps. D347 says "Existing numbered migrations stay", docs/PROCESS.md says never rename an applied migration, J199's guard reserves these six names, and the test server already applied them; a rename would make it refuse to start. Order B above shows that applying them after 0049 is safe. Recommendation: keep them.

1. webauthn.rs: ceremony-pool eviction next to the per-action tap binding: safe
Loginliteral carries this branch'sactionand dev'snetwork/orderfrom separate locals.bound(action)?runs before the pool lock (auth/webauthn.rs:294,:368). An invalid action is refused before it can take or evict a slot.evict_from_heaviest_network(webauthn.rs:399,:677) drops the oldest anonymous ceremony of the heaviest network.make_room_for_person(webauthn.rs:58,:330,:717) drops only that same person's oldest identified ceremony. The approval-pool trim (auth/devices.rs:392) drops the person's own approval ceremony together with its login.finish_login, from the consumedLogin(webauthn.rs:438-462). So eviction can lose a tap, and the person taps again. It cannot substitute an action or grant one.Denied, and an anonymous network that is already as heavy as any other isThrottled. It never reuses another ceremony.device_approve_starttakesapproval_ceremoniesand thenpending(devices.rs:376-398). Nothing in the server takes them in the reverse order, so this cannot deadlock.verify_passkey_clockstill ignoresaction(CA ceremonies). An approval ceremony still finishes only through its ownApprovalCeremonyentry, which is bound to the session and the code.2. Key-lifetime Settings control (

It is not per key, so there is no key to bind.{kind:"security.settings", api_key_lifetime_days: days}(apps/tracer/src/auth.ts:261). It goes through the samelogin-start→login-finish→unlock-sessionpath thataddSecondPasskeyalready uses live, so the session isunlocked=1before the retried update.3.

Renaming them would break the test server's strict history, so keeping the numbers is what D347 ("Existing numbered migrations stay") and PROCESS.md §3 require. J94f's both-order proof on populated copies (79756) agrees.Findings
crates/infraternal-server/src/bootstrap_api.rs:235: in a build without theremotefeature, the bootstrap upgrade ignoresAuthorizationand authorizes a cookie-plus-bearer request as the cookie's session (authenticate_headers,:330).Origin. And every shipped server build hasremote(package-releaseandmacos-releaseusedesktop/remote).authenticate_headers(onecontains_key(AUTHORIZATION)check), as theremotepath does. Unchanged by this merge.apps/tracer/src/key-lifetime.test.ts:9: the semantic fix is proven only by a fetch mock that stops atlogin-start(503). The server-side binding is tested well, but nothing has run the real Settings control end to end with a bound tap. When this is deployed to the test server, change the key lifetime once from Settings and expect one passkey prompt and a saved value. A second attempt with no new tap should be refused.Cleanup: I stopped my probe server (PID 2343130) and removed my
/tmp/j234*files on compute01. I pushed nothing, merged nothing and closed nothing.Verdict: APPROVE (P1 0, P2 0, P3 2)
