# TASK METADATA - **Target Files:** `server/routes/auth_forward.ts`, `ui/db_queries.ts`, `ui/mod.ts`, `server/routes/events.ts`, `server/tests/forward_auth.test.ts`, `server/tests/events.test.ts` - **Core Objective:** Implement Phase 1 of the Event & Session Overhaul: Enable Traefik ForwardAuth guest ingress for scoped event attendees, bridge session custom scopes to the Launchpad UI, and wire audit logging on event seat claims. - **Dependencies:** None. - **Additional Important Notes:** Follow zero-trust default-deny principles for ForwardAuth. Guest sessions minting needs to correctly log to the Merkle audit ledger for SIEM visibility. --- ### 2. Architectural Considerations & Risks - **Risks:** - **ForwardAuth Security:** Modifying ForwardAuth to accept `guest` accounts risks inadvertently allowing guests to access applications they are not explicitly scoped for. Strict validation of `auth.customScopes` against the requested `appRecord.name` is critical. - **Launchpad Leakage:** The `getDashboardApps` query modification must be robust. If the UNION query is not correctly structured, it could leak visibility of unregistered or unauthorized apps to guests. - **Audit Logging Integrity:** Failure to capture the audit events properly during the `join` phase would break SIEM visibility. Using the non-blocking `auditWrapper.auditLog` is required to avoid impacting user request latency while ensuring compliance. - **Alternatives:** - We considered a bypass in `ui/db_queries.ts` where guests completely skip the `grants` JOIN. However, using a `UNION` is structurally superior as it seamlessly supports both pure guests and regular active users who might hold delegated scoped passes. It provides a unified data retrieval flow. ### 3. Proposed Implementation #### Phase 1: ForwardAuth Guest Ingress (`server/routes/auth_forward.ts`) 1. **Permit Guest Accounts:** Update the account status validation to allow `user.account_status === 'guest'` in addition to `'active'`. 2. **Custom Scopes Validation:** If the user is a guest (or relying on custom scopes), verify that `auth.customScopes` contains the explicit application grant (e.g., `app:${appRecord.name}`). If not, return a 403 Forbidden. 3. **Header Injection:** For guest sessions, compute the scopes to inject into `X-Forwarded-Scopes` by taking the comma-joined list of `auth.customScopes` (`auth.customScopes.join(",")`). This propagates the app scope (e.g., `app:ed-droid`) and role (e.g., `viewer`) to downstream reverse proxies. #### Phase 2: Launchpad App Query (`ui/db_queries.ts` & `ui/mod.ts`) 1. **Function Signature Update:** Update `getDashboardApps(userId: string, isAdmin: boolean, customScopes?: string[])` to accept the session's custom scopes. 2. **UNION Query:** Update the non-admin SQL query to use a `UNION`. - The first part queries explicitly granted apps via the `grants` table. - The second part parses the provided `customScopes` array to extract allowed app names (e.g., stripping the `app:` prefix), querying the `apps` table for those matching names, and assigning them a pseudo-role such as `"Guest (Viewer)"` (or extracting the role from the scopes if possible). 3. **UI Integration:** In `ui/mod.ts`, pass `auth.customScopes` from the resolved session into `getDashboardApps`. #### Phase 3: Join Audit Logging (`server/routes/events.ts`) 1. **Audit `POST /api/join` (Web):** Immediately after minting the guest session, invoke `auditWrapper.auditLog(guestUuid, "event_seat_claimed", event.id, { slug: event.slug, name: event.name, seatNumber: event.seats_claimed, method: "web" }, getClientIp(c))`. 2. **Audit `GET /join/:slug` (CLI):** Similarly, wire `auditWrapper.auditLog(guestUuid, "event_seat_claimed", event.id, { slug: event.slug, name: event.name, seatNumber: event.seats_claimed, method: "cli" }, getClientIp(c))` into this endpoint before returning the token. #### Phase 4: Unit Testing 1. **ForwardAuth Tests (`server/tests/forward_auth.test.ts`):** - Add tests simulating a guest session with an `app:{name}` scope to ensure a `200 OK` response with correctly formatted `X-Forwarded-Scopes`. - Add tests simulating a guest session without the necessary `app:{name}` scope to ensure a `403 Forbidden` response. 2. **Events Tests (`server/tests/events.test.ts`):** - Ensure the `POST /api/join` and `GET /join/:slug` assertions capture the `auditLog` spy calls and verify the exact payload (`event_seat_claimed` action, `event.id` as resource, correct metadata structure).
