@ekklesia/contracts still emitted a type-only import of
drizzle-orm/node-postgres for the legacy ModuleDatabase facade, so a
standalone module type-checked only because skipLibCheck hid it.

- ModuleDatabase, LegacyModuleRuntimeServices and
  AnyModuleRuntimeServices move to core/src/modules/database.ts, beside
  the facade Core builds; the facade itself is unchanged.
- contracts' runtime, route, and services generics no longer name an
  ORM: the database type is a plain parameter defaulting to the ABI v1
  executor, and the legacy definition's database is opaque until Core
  specializes it. Core and apps/api name the legacy types from Core.
- contracts drops its drizzle-orm optional peer and devDependency;
  Drizzle stays public only through @ekklesia/module-database/drizzle.
- The facade's type-level test moves from contracts to Core.
- Regression proof: the standalone fixture type-checks with
  skipLibCheck: false against the packed tarballs, with no drizzle-orm
  installed (the smoke asserts both). Against the previous contracts
  tarball the same check fails with TS2307 on drizzle-orm/node-postgres.

ekklesiaandClaude Opus 5.5 44d385cd7f feat: native linux-x64-glibc module packages and reviewed license supplements (ADR 0049, ADR 0052)
CI / verify (pull_request) Successful in 1m6s
CI / infrastructure-smoke (pull_request) Successful in 27s
CI / migration-smoke (pull_request) Successful in 1m54s

Implements ADR 0049's deferred native target and ADR 0052's reviewed
license supplements. The proof case is a real module using sharp.
packageFormat stays 1, and `any` is unchanged.

Packager (@ekklesia/module-pack):
- --target linux-x64-glibc. Native or platform-specific packages, found by
  the same generic rule that refuses them in `any`, stay outside the bundle.
- Each native package's production closure is walked through its own
  dependencies, installed optionalDependencies that match the target, and
  required peers. It is copied as real files flat under node_modules/<name>,
  with no links, dev dependencies, declarations, source maps, or other
  platforms' packages. Missing or foreign-platform required dependencies,
  version conflicts, links, foreign machines, and Node.js range conflicts
  fail closed.
- runtime.nodeApi, nodeAbi, and libcVersion are read from the binaries by a
  small ELF reader: the addon's node_api_module_get_api_version_v1 and the
  newest GLIBC_ symbol version needed. No shelling out. A native target with
  no addon is refused.
- ADR 0052 supplements: package-provided material stays primary. An exact
  match on name, version, and ekklesia-content-v1 digest (sorted normalized
  paths with each file's size and SHA-256; no metadata) adds labelled
  material after the package's own. Any mismatch, a declared-licence
  conflict, or a malformed or unreviewed supplement file fails. Missing
  material with no supplement still fails.

Supplement for @img/[email protected]:
- 184 components and 143 unique texts, assembled from the exact upstream
  sources sharp-libvips v1.3.3 builds linux-x64 from: 27 C/C++ libraries,
  glib's gvdb, librsvg's Rust crates (reproduced with cargo tree), the Rust
  standard library at the rustc commit recorded in the binary, plus the
  LGPL-3.0, GPL-3.0, and MPL-2.0 texts. Each source is recorded with its
  SHA-256 in PROVENANCE.md.
- It pins digest ekklesia-content-v1:sha256:50647b0b…, which is identical
  from the installed copy and from the registry tarball.
- LGPL/MPL source-availability determinations stay open, as ADR 0052
  states. Nothing claims they are met.

Verifier (Core):
- linux-x64-glibc is accepted only on a host whose platform, arch, glibc
  family and version, and Node-API version (from Node itself) match.
- Every ELF file must be x86-64; every .node must be an ELF object.
- `any` packages now also refuse node_modules/ and ELF files.
- Contract: native metadata must state nodeApi or nodeAbi, and Linux targets
  libcVersion (ADR 0049).

Proof:
- A checked-in AGPL native fixture packs byte-identically from unrelated
  copies (8.86 MB) and verifies with Core's verifier.
- Extracted elsewhere, it runs a sharp resize and PNG round trip in an
  empty-environment process. Every resolution stays in the package, and
  only the package's addon and libvips plus host system libraries load.

Signage is untouched.

Every Module Package v1 now declares the module's license and carries its
text. packageFormat stays 1; pre-ADR-0051 metadata fails closed.

- Contracts: ekklesia.package.json requires an SPDX `license` expression,
  validated with spdx-expression-parse, with UNLICENSED and non-expressions
  refused. The `files` list must hold exactly one non-empty root LICENSE.
  The package contracts move to the @ekklesia/contracts/module-package
  subpath, so the SPDX parser and its data (spdx-exceptions and
  spdx-license-ids ship no licence files) never reach a module bundle
  through the SDK's re-export of the contracts root.
- Packager: reads the source package.json's string SPDX declaration and
  never invents one. It requires an explicit --license-file (a non-empty
  regular file, no symlink, no parent search, no download) and copies its
  bytes unchanged to LICENSE, listed with size and SHA-256 and covered by
  the archive digest. THIRD_PARTY_NOTICES stays third-party only, and
  bundled Ekklesia code stays in `incorporates`.
- Verifier: rejects missing or invalid license metadata, and a missing,
  unlisted, duplicated, or corrupted LICENSE, through the schema and the
  existing strict inventory.
- Template: packaged as AGPL-3.0-or-later with the repository's canonical
  LICENSE, passed explicitly (Dockerfile, smoke, docs). Packing it twice
  gives byte-identical archives.

Started by Codex; reviewed and completed in Claude Code (empty license-text
refusal, schema non-empty LICENSE, symlink and empty-file tests).

ADR 0051 is Accepted.

ekklesiaandClaude Opus 5.5 317a4ce410 fix: ADR 0050 callback-error precedence, and the honest limits of transaction control

CI / deploy-smoke (split) (pull_request) Successful in 1m37s
Narrow contract and implementation adjustments from review. No SDK, manifest,
packaging, or Signage work.

Callback-error precedence:
- A transaction or savepoint callback that rejects keeps its own error, even
  while sibling work it started is still settling (one failed half of a
  Promise.all). Core drains that work, rolls back, and never commits or
  releases.
- A callback that resolves with work outstanding (a forgotten await) still
  fails with MODULE_DATABASE_SCOPE_WORK_OUTSTANDING and rolls back.

Transaction-control SQL:
- ADR 0050 forbids it through query() as a conformance rule for trusted code,
  not a security guarantee. Core does not parse SQL, so PostgreSQL has run
  the statement before Core sees it. Core detects the violation from the
  command tag or the transaction status, and claims nothing it cannot do: a
  module's own COMMIT has committed.
- After a violation, the transaction's scopes refuse every later statement
  without sending it (it would otherwise autocommit). Core never commits the
  transaction itself, and the connection is destroyed rather than reused,
  for top-level violations too.
- The commit and rollback guarantees apply to conforming use.

Duplicate object-mode columns: documented as found only after execution, so a
mutation can have taken effect; atomicity needs an ABI transaction.

Tests prove each of these against PostgreSQL: Promise.all failures in a
transaction and a savepoint keep 23505; a forgotten await still rolls back; a
module COMMIT's prior work is committed while nothing after it runs; a backend
PID changes after every violation; duplicate RETURNING columns persist at the
top level and roll back in a transaction.

ADR 0050 stays Accepted: the executor conforms to the revised text.

Implements the first ADR 0050 slice: Core's ORM-neutral executor and its
PostgreSQL evidence. Nothing is wired to modules yet; manifest v8, SDK
adapters, schema metadata, packaging, and Signage are later slices. The
legacy ModuleDatabase facade is unchanged.

Contracts (@ekklesia/contracts, no imports at all):
- ABI version 1; query { text, values, rowMode } returning
  { command, rowCount, rows, fields: [{ name, typeOid }] };
- executor, transaction, and savepoint types with exactly the ABI's
  members; parameter and result value types;
- ModuleDatabaseError { code, sqlState? }: eight stable codes, and a
  SQLSTATE only when PostgreSQL supplied one; static messages, no cause,
  frozen; isModuleDatabaseError recognises it by shape.

Core (createModuleDatabaseExecutor over the API's existing pool):
- one statement per query, enforced by forcing the extended query
  protocol so PostgreSQL itself refuses a second statement (42601);
  no SQL parsing;
- parameters: null, boolean, number, bigint, string, Uint8Array, and
  rectangular arrays of them; everything else refused before sending;
- a Core-owned decoding table that never consults pg's global parser
  registry: int8, numeric, temporal, and JSON as exact text; bytea as a
  plain Uint8Array; built-in arrays element by element;
- every operation pins TimeZone, DateStyle, IntervalStyle, bytea_output,
  and extra_float_digits, then resets with DISCARD ALL before returning
  the connection, or destroys it when it cannot be reset cleanly;
- callback-scoped transactions with explicit isolation and access mode;
  a COMMIT that PostgreSQL answers with ROLLBACK is reported as failed;
- savepoints named by Core; only the innermost scope is active; scopes
  are revoked when their callback settles;
- a callback that settles with work outstanding is rolled back, never
  committed or released;
- transaction-control statements sent through query are refused by
  command tag and transaction status, and fail the transaction;
- the module ID is carried for Core's attribution only.

Tests:
- 83 integration tests on a database with hostile defaults: queries,
  the one-statement rule, parameters, decoding, errors, transactions,
  savepoints, forgotten awaits, pool safety after every failure class,
  and session state;
- unit tests for encoding, decoding, options, sanitization, and scope
  bookkeeping;
- type-level and source checks that no ORM or driver object crosses
  the boundary.

ADR 0050 is Accepted.

ekklesiaandClaude Opus 5.5 35ef31df9f feat: Ekklesia Module Package v1, the canonical packager and verifier (ADR 0049)

CI / deploy-smoke (split) (pull_request) Failing after 54s
A separately versioned module is now distributed as one deterministic
.tar.gz and its SHA-256, produced by an Ekklesia-owned packager and checked by
Core before anything is installed. This slice implements the portable `any`
target, with the module template as the end-to-end proof. ADR 0049 is
accepted.

@ekklesia/contracts: the Module Package v1 contract. The strict
ekklesia.package.json schema (packageFormat 1, identity, target, runtime,
provenance, incorporated Ekklesia packages, strict transitional facts, an
exact byte-wise-sorted file list with size and SHA-256), target names, and the
generated runtime package.json.

@ekklesia/module-pack (new, tooling): `ekklesia-pack-module --module <dir>
--target any --out <dir> --source-revision <commit>`.
- Bundles server, schema, and jobs with esbuild, SDK, contracts, and Drizzle
  included; only Node built-ins remain imports. Any warning, unresolved
  import, external dependency, or native or platform-specific package fails.
- Copies browser artifacts as built, after proving them current, and the
  migrations; generates package.json and ekklesia.package.json; never ships
  src, tests, declarations, source maps, or workspace ranges.
- THIRD_PARTY_NOTICES: every third-party package traced from the bundles'
  own inputs, credited once with its declared licence and every licence,
  copying, copyright, and notice file it ships. A missing licence fails; a
  missing text fails unless its standard text is complete without copyright
  lines (Apache-2.0, vendored, needed by drizzle-orm).
- Deterministic ustar and gzip: sorted paths, uid/gid 0, empty names, mtime
  0, 0755/0644, no links. Byte-identical across runs and machines.
- Writes only the archive and its .sha256; never deploys, links, or installs,
  so the workspace's install state is untouched.

Core: verifyModulePackage and `verify-module-package.js <archive>
[--sha256 | --sha256-file] [--extract-to <new dir>]`. Reads the archive in
memory and refuses links, special entries, setuid/setgid/sticky modes, unsafe
or escaping paths, and a second top-level directory; checks metadata, every
file, identity, target, Node.js range, SDK, and the transitional Drizzle
agreement; runs the platform's module and migration discovery; loads the
backend once in a forked process with an empty environment; only then
extracts, with normalized modes, into a new directory. Errors are sanitized.

@ekklesia/module-ui-build: analyzeModuleUi reports each artifact's inputs
and whether the built file is current. The nested stylesheet build now works
from the module directory, so artifacts no longer depend on the caller's
working directory.

The split deploy smoke builds the package with the canonical packager
(scripts/lib/build-module-package.Dockerfile replaces the test-only pnpm
deploy packaging), verifies it with the same generic image, installs the
verified tree, removes it, and reinstalls the exact same archive.

ekklesiaandClaude Opus 5.5 e36b70d8d4 feat: one generic image, with installed modules in installation-owned storage (ADR 0048)
CI / verify (pull_request) Failing after 47s
CI / infrastructure-smoke (pull_request) Skipped
CI / migration-smoke (pull_request) Skipped
CI / image-build (pull_request) Skipped
CI / deploy-smoke (same-origin) (pull_request) Skipped
CI / deploy-smoke (split) (pull_request) Skipped
The production image now contains zero feature modules and is the same for every
installation. Installed modules live in module storage that one Core resolver
selects from EKKLESIA_MODULES_DIR: the checkout's modules/ when unset, an
absolute path that must exist when set (/var/lib/ekklesia/modules in the image).
A relative, blank, missing, or unreadable configured directory fails closed with
a sanitized error that never contains the value.

- Host configuration reads EKKLESIA_MODULES_DIR. The API, migration plan, apply
  and validate, module validation, module enablement, and Doctor all resolve it
  the same way; the test-only API override still takes precedence.
- Doctor receives Core's migrations directory explicitly instead of deriving it
  from the modules directory's parent.
- The migration runner retains and reports the applied history of a module that
  is not installed, and plans and applies Core's and present modules' migrations
  around it. Core's history and every installed module's history stay strict: a
  missing or changed applied migration, or a downgrade, still fails. No down
  migrations, no data deletion.
- deploy/Dockerfile copies no module and installs nothing for the module
  template; .dockerignore excludes modules/ and the build refuses a context that
  contains it; the runtime has an empty root-owned /var/lib/ekklesia/modules and
  sets EKKLESIA_MODULES_DIR.
- deploy/compose.yaml bind-mounts EKKLESIA_MODULES_HOST_DIR read-only into api
  and migrate, with create_host_path disabled.
- scripts/check-image.sh proves the image holds no modules and that a populated
  modules/ directory leaves its runtime file system identical; CI runs it.
- The split deploy smoke now uses the same generic image: it boots with no
  modules, installs a self-contained test module packaged from the template
  (test-only), migrates and restarts, removes it (Core runs, planning reports the
  retained history, data survives), and restores it with its data.

Docs: deploy README (module storage, install/update/remove/restore, the runtime
modules target), .env.example, API configuration, module development guide,
testing, workflow, security, and the architecture overview.

ekklesiaandClaude Opus 5.5 0ec1755279 docs: the server runs Gitea 1.27.2, not 1.24.2; say what it actually honours

The CI documentation, the workflow header, the README, ADR 0047 and the
sweep's comment all said the server was Gitea 1.24.2, which ignores
`permissions`, `concurrency` and `timeout-minutes`. The server reports
1.27.2 (GET /api/v1/version).

Each claim is now stated from what is verified on this server:
- `concurrency` is honoured, observed: Ekklesia runs 133 and 135 were
  cancelled when a newer run started for the same pull request;
- `permissions` is supported by 1.27 with Gitea's own scopes, but the
  token's actual authority is not visible through the API and not yet
  proven, so nothing claims the job token is read-only;
- `timeout-minutes` is no longer listed as unsupported, but is not
  verified, and teardown still relies on the stack sweep and a reaper.

Requirement 1 for executing untrusted contributions (upgrade to the
1.26 line or later) is marked done; items 2 and 3, configuring and
proving token authority, remain. ADR 0047 (still Proposed) restates
its "docker run, not a reusable workflow" reasons for 1.27, where
private sources are supported. The reasons still hold without the 1.24
argument.

ekklesiaandClaude Opus 5.5 62951975da fix(ci): nothing a CI job starts outlives it, even when the runner kills the job

CI / deploy-smoke (split) (pull_request) Successful in 53s
A migration-smoke stack (PostgreSQL and SeaweedFS) ran on the shared
runner for two days. Every CI script removes its stack in an EXIT trap,
but a trap never runs when the runner kills the job container: a
cancelled job, or the runner's own time limit (Gitea 1.24 ignores
timeout-minutes). Reproduced: SIGKILL of the infrastructure smoke
mid-run leaves exactly that stack running.

Cleanup now has three layers:
- the script's own trap, unchanged;
- a final `if: always()` step in every job that starts stacks
  (infrastructure-smoke, migration-smoke, image-build, deploy-smoke)
  runs `scripts/ci-sweep.sh --job`, which removes everything that job
  started at any age;
- a first step in each of those jobs runs `scripts/ci-sweep.sh --stale`,
  which removes CI stacks older than three hours: what a killed job left
  before it could clean up.

How stacks are found is defined once, in scripts/lib/ci-project.sh:
- every CI Compose project is named `ekklesia-ci-<run>-<attempt>-<job
  key>-<kind>-<unique>`, and Compose labels its containers, networks and
  volumes with that name;
- the deploy smoke labels everything it starts outside Compose:
  browser, kiosk and driver containers, the kiosk volume, built images;
- images also record when CI built them. An image's own creation time
  can be its base's (BuildKit, metadata-only builds), and the sweep
  removed a brand-new image as "old" until it stopped trusting that.

The job key is per matrix leg, so one topology's cleanup cannot remove
the other's running stack. The sweep never touches anything outside the
ekklesia-ci- prefix, disconnects rather than removes a job container
attached to a stack's network, and refuses --job outside CI. Network
creation times are read as RFC 3339; Docker's default form was
unparseable.

scripts/test-ci-sweep.sh proves all of that against real Docker, and
CI runs it before relying on it. security.md and testing.md document
the rule, and that it complements, not replaces, a runner-side reaper.

ekklesiaandClaude Opus 5.5 f63f80f2f0 feat: support split Dashboard and API origins (ADR 0045)
CI / verify (pull_request) Successful in 49s

CI / deploy-smoke (split) (pull_request) Successful in 1m4s
An installation can now serve the Dashboard and the API on sibling
hostnames (dash./api.) beside the default same-origin topology, from one
image and with configuration alone.

- The Dashboard learns its API origin at run time: the built page carries
  one empty <meta name="ekklesia-api-origin">, which the API fills with its
  identity base URL's origin at startup, before computing the page's ETag.
  The shell accepts only a canonical http(s) origin and otherwise fails
  closed without making a request. The build-time EKKLESIA_API_BASE_URL is
  gone from the bundle; the development server injects the same element.
- The display host stays on the API's origin, so its device cookies,
  requests, and offline cache are unchanged.
- The API trusts its own origin (trusted origins plus the identity base
  URL), as Better Auth already does, so the display page's mutations pass
  the origin check without operators listing it.
- Doctor validates EKKLESIA_DASHBOARD_ORIGIN exactly as the API's startup
  does (it previously skipped it), reports the topology without printing
  hostnames, and warns when split hostnames are not siblings.
- The module UI contract states the CORS header limit (safelisted headers
  plus Content-Type, safelisted response headers only).
- Reference deployment: Caddyfile.split.example (Dashboard hostname serves
  / and its script; API hostname serves /api/*, /display/*, and the
  display script; each refuses the other's paths) and
  EKKLESIA_DASHBOARD_HOSTNAME in the proxy overlay and env examples.
- The deploy smoke test runs either topology (CI runs both). The split run
  installs the module template as a test-only module, checks per-hostname
  routing and exact CORS, then drives a digest-pinned headless Chromium
  over the DevTools protocol, with no added dependency: sign-in on the
  Dashboard hostname, the session cookie host-only on the API hostname,
  the module UI imported cross-origin and its credentialed request
  succeeding, the display and its service worker on the API hostname, and
  sign-out.

  to api and refuses everything else; the storage hostname preserves

- Four per-service root-owned env files, examples with no values;
  scripts/init-tls.sh (idempotent, never overwrites a key) and
  scripts/gen-secrets.sh (prints only).

  deploy-smoke job (scripts/smoke-deploy.sh) proving readiness, the
  Dashboard, signed storage delivery, the client-address chain, initial
  owner sign-in/out, verify-full database TLS, and Doctor through the

- ADR 0044 (still Proposed) amended to match: API-to-storage HTTPS,

ekklesiaandClaude Opus 5.5 756e9b821c feat(deploy): add the production container image
Add deploy/Dockerfile and .dockerignore (ADR 0044): one image for the
api service and every operator-run CLI, built from an already-assembled
workspace (the platform plus whatever modules/<id> the context holds).

- node:24.18.0-trixie-slim pinned by index digest; pnpm via Corepack at
  the root packageManager version.
- Build stage: frozen install, modules:validate, migrations:validate,
  build. Runtime: production-only node_modules plus every dist/, core
  migrations, and each module directory, in the repository layout the
  API and CLIs resolve paths from; root-owned, run as node.
- NODE_ENV=production and EKKLESIA_API_HOST=0.0.0.0 inside the image
  only; the platform default stays 127.0.0.1. Configuration comes only
  from the environment; no .env enters the context or any layer.
- HEALTHCHECK on /api/v1/health/ready with Node's fetch; OCI labels for
  source, revision, and version.
- CI builds the image without modules: build only, no credentials, no
  push.
- deploy/README.md documents the image, the read-only production
  posture (verified), init: true, and the exact CLI commands.

CI / verify (pull_request) Successful in 46s
CI / infrastructure-smoke (pull_request) Successful in 12s
CI / migration-smoke (pull_request) Successful in 1m44s
Serve surfaces/shell's built Dashboard from apps/api on the same origin
as /api (ADR 0044), exactly as the display host is served: a closed set
of files read once at startup, never a static directory, never a path
built from request input.

- The shell exports @ekklesia/shell/dashboard-assets (the exact built
  index.html and script URLs), emits the script at
  assets/ekklesia-dashboard/app.js, and index.html names that absolute
  path so dev and production serve the same URLs.
- GET / and GET /assets/ekklesia-dashboard/app.js answer from a frozen
  snapshot: no-cache with a strong ETag and 304 on match. Source maps
  are never served; every other path is the ordinary sanitized 404.
- The page sets nosniff, X-Frame-Options: DENY, Content-Security-Policy:
  frame-ancestors 'none' (that directive only), and Referrer-Policy:
  no-referrer, on 200 and 304 alike.
- A missing or empty shell build fails startup with a fixed
  DashboardHostAssetError before any module code is imported.
- The If-None-Match comparison moves to conditional-request.ts, shared
  with the display host routes.
- The emailed-link token stripping moves from browser/main.tsx into
  consumeAuthLanding (location and history injected) so it is tested;
  behavior is unchanged.

CI / migration-smoke (pull_request) Successful in 1m42s
Add GET /api/v1/health/live and GET /api/v1/health/ready per ADR 0044.

- live returns a fixed 200 {"status":"live"} whenever the process serves.
- ready returns 200 {"status":"ready"} only when module startup has
  completed (and shutdown has not begun) and a database ping succeeds
  within 2s; otherwise a fixed 503 {"code":"NOT_READY"}.
- The ping runs on the shared pool as one simple-protocol message with
  a transaction-local statement_timeout, so PostgreSQL cancels a stalled
  statement; the pool discards the connection on failure.
- At most one ping is ever unsettled: probes share its outcome and, once
  its deadline passes, answer 503 immediately until it settles.
- Both routes set Cache-Control: no-store, accept GET only (405 with
  Allow: GET otherwise, HEAD included), never resolve a principal, and
  are mounted in app.ts beside, never inside, /api/v1/modules/.
- createApiApp gains a required `health` option; startApi supplies it
  and clears module readiness when shutdown begins.

ekklesiaandClaude Opus 5 20d5128bad docs: record the five Phase 8 prerequisites, and report contributions
Bring the living documentation in line with what the five passes actually
shipped, and correct the claims they superseded rather than leaving them to
mislead: the module UI context is six members, not five; module styling is
compiled CSS, not inline objects only; the strict manifest is version 7.

Also close a silent failure the new contribution mechanism introduces. A
contribution whose target capability nobody provides — or whose provider moved
outside its declared range — is not published, and the manifest is valid and
the artifact exists, so an operator sees a screen that renders nothing with no
error anywhere. `pnpm modules:validate` now lists each declared contribution
with its capability and range and says whether a compatible provider is
installed, and Doctor's discovery check reports the same per module. Both
derive from the publication registry the API serves from, so neither can
disagree with what a running platform would actually publish.

ekklesiaandClaude Opus 5 e36485bf99 feat: let a module route stream an image-sized upload, explicitly and bounded
ADR 0017 capped a module route at 1 MiB and said large media belonged to a
future storage design. That design arrived — ADR 0030 gave modules a bucket,
ADR 0031 took Ekklesia out of the read path — and it did not solve the write
path: signed write URLs were deliberately declined, so the only way bytes
reach a bucket is a module's own route, and a photograph is not 1 MiB.

Extend the route contract rather than adding a second HTTP system. A route
declares `bodyMode`: `buffered` (the default, and what every existing route
already meant) keeps the 1 MiB ceiling and materializes the body before the
handler runs; `streamed` raises the ceiling to 32 MiB and counts bytes as the
handler consumes them, holding nothing. The mode is explicit rather than
inferred from the size, because inferring it would mean an author who raised a
limit silently changed how their own handler receives its body and when a 413
can reach their own code.

32 MiB holds one 25 MiB image plus bounded overhead and is also the platform's
absolute ceiling: no route in any mode may declare more, and no unbounded
option exists in the contract. The unit is one file per request — twenty
images are twenty individually bounded requests, and nothing here can express
a 500 MiB aggregate whose failure would waste everything already sent.

Replace the buffering dependency with the platform's own limiter. A declared
Content-Length over the limit is refused synchronously, before authorization
and before a byte is read. Buffered mode now counts what actually arrives
rather than trusting the header, which closes a gap the previous
implementation had. Streamed mode wraps the body in a counting transform;
on overflow the stream errors, the source is cancelled, and the response is
replaced with the same sanitized 413 even if the handler swallowed the error —
a limit a handler can swallow is not a limit. An unread body is cancelled so
an abandoned upload releases its socket, and an abort stays an ordinary failed
request rather than becoming a 413.

Ordering is unchanged and now strictly better: in streamed mode no byte is
read until the handler reads it, and the handler runs only after authorization
succeeds, so an unauthorized caller cannot push an upload through at all.

The live suite uploads a real 25 MiB body over a real socket end to end.

ekklesiaandClaude Opus 5 3563549e86 fix: let a deployment name itself in the SMTP greeting
CI / verify (pull_request) Successful in 42s
CI / infrastructure-smoke (pull_request) Successful in 20s
CI / migration-smoke (pull_request) Successful in 1m41s
A real deployment could not send mail through an IP-authorized relay.
Every attempt surfaced as MAIL_PROVIDER_UNAVAILABLE while the relay was
healthy and swaks sent from the same machine.

The cause was the greeting, and it is generic rather than tied to any
provider. An SMTP client identifies itself in EHLO, and with nothing
configured Nodemailer derives that from the machine hostname —
substituting the address literal [127.0.0.1] whenever the hostname is
not fully qualified, which is the normal state of a container. The relay
closed the connection on it with a 421 before any message was offered,
which is indistinguishable from the relay being down.

EKKLESIA_SMTP_HELO_NAME now lets the deployment say what to greet as. It
is validated as a fully qualified domain name — no scheme, port,
brackets, whitespace, or control characters, and at least one dot, since
a single unqualified label is exactly the input Nodemailer already
discards. It is not a credential: it travels in the clear on every
connection, so Doctor prints it where an operator can compare it against
what the relay expects, and Doctor's probe performs the same greeting the
runtime does.

Absent preserves Nodemailer's behaviour exactly. It is deliberately not
defaulted to the sender's domain: a machine whose hostname is already a
valid FQDN may be greeting correctly, and some relays check that against
reverse DNS, so replacing it silently would trade one deployment's bug
for another's.

The regression guard is a raw SMTP server that refuses any greeting but
the expected one, because smtp-server exposes no EHLO hook and its
earliest hook is never reached by a send-nothing probe.

ekklesiaandClaude Opus 5 ea28f8aa2e feat: verify email addresses and recover forgotten passwords
CI / verify (pull_request) Successful in 42s
CI / infrastructure-smoke (pull_request) Successful in 20s
CI / migration-smoke (pull_request) Successful in 1m42s
Ekklesia could authenticate a person and, since Pass 1, send a
transactional email — but it had no way to establish that an address
belonged to whoever claimed it, and no way back in for someone who
forgot their password.

A verified address is now a precondition for holding a session. Better
Auth enforces that after the password check and before any session
exists, so an unverified sign-in returns 403 with no cookie. That is why
no "unverified principal" was needed: a correct password on an
unverified address carries exactly the authority of no password, and
/api/v1/principal is unchanged.

Better Auth keeps every token. Ekklesia adds no token table, no hashing,
and no expiry clock. It supplies a recipient, a subject, and two bodies,
and the mail provider supplies everything about SMTP.

Verification and reset links are rebuilt from a validated Dashboard
origin, taking only the token — never the URL Better Auth prebuilds from
a caller-supplied callbackURL — so no request can steer where a
recipient lands. Following a verification link mints no session, because
mail infrastructure dereferences links. Reset revokes that person's
other sessions and leaves managed devices alone.

Recovery answers identically for an address with an account, without
one, already verified, or undeliverable — including when SMTP is broken,
which is why the delivery adapter never throws.

The initial platform owner is the one exception: created already
verified by an operator command with no mail prerequisite, so a fresh
server can be signed in to before a relay exists. Migration 0007 extends
that to owners of installations that already exist. Public signup stays
disabled; verification is not a licence to self-register.

CI / verify (pull_request) Successful in 42s
CI / infrastructure-smoke (pull_request) Successful in 14s
CI / migration-smoke (pull_request) Successful in 1m24s
`pnpm doctor` and `startApi` each read their own subset of the same
environment variables, and the subsets had drifted. Doctor never read
`S3_*` or module secrets at all, so a correctly configured installation
was told its object storage was "not configured" and every module
requiring a bucket or a secret was reported blocked -- while the runtime,
from the identical environment, bound those buckets and ran the modules.

Both executables now map the environment through one
`loadHostConfiguration(env)` in Core, which takes the environment as an
argument and never reads `process.env` itself. Validation stays with the
existing per-domain validators, so each caller keeps its own failure
behaviour: startup refuses a rejected value, Doctor reports it as a
sanitized code.

Doctor's storage option becomes raw input like its mail option, so a
half-configured provider is reported as a blocking configuration failure
instead of throwing before a report exists. The outbound-email check --
computed, counted toward the result, but absent from every rendered
section -- is now printed, and the rendered set is asserted against a
real report so a future check cannot go missing the same way.

CI / verify (pull_request) Successful in 42s
CI / infrastructure-smoke (pull_request) Successful in 21s
CI / migration-smoke (pull_request) Successful in 1m23s
Ekklesia could authenticate people and pair devices but could not send a
single message. Better Auth has been configured with emailAndPassword
since ADR 0011 and neither of its mail hooks — sendResetPassword and
emailVerification.sendVerificationEmail — was ever implemented, so email
verification, password recovery, and invitations were all blocked on the
same missing thing.

That missing thing is a transport, not a Google Workspace integration.
Email is now a host-provided infrastructure service with a provider seam,
shaped exactly like object storage: feature code says "send this
transactional message" and the provider owns the host, port, TLS,
credentials, connection behaviour, and every transport error. No
provider's hostname appears anywhere in Core, and a test asserts it.
Google Workspace SMTP Relay is the expected first deployment and a
compatibility target — the same variables address Microsoft 365, a
transactional provider, or a local Postfix.

The contract is deliberately tiny: one recipient or a small bounded list,
a subject, text and/or HTML, an optional reply-to, and nothing else. There
is no `from` field at all — the sender is host configuration, so no
feature and no future module can choose who mail appears to come from,
which is how a platform otherwise acquires an impersonation primitive.
Control characters are refused rather than stripped in addresses, display
names, subjects, and reply-to values; writing that rule down was not
enough, because the first implementation trimmed an address before
checking it and silently accepted a trailing carriage return until a test
caught it.

Security modes are named rather than inferred from a boolean and a port,
which is genuinely ambiguous: `secure: false` on 587 means "connect in the
clear and hope STARTTLS is offered". `starttls` sets requireTLS so a
stripped upgrade fails the send instead of continuing in plaintext,
production refuses `plaintext` outright, and certificate verification has
no off switch. Credentials are optional as a pair, because a relay
authorized by source IP has neither and requiring them would make the
intended production arrangement unconfigurable; half a pair fails loudly.

Connection, greeting, and socket timeouts are all explicit — the
object-storage pass already showed what a network client on library
defaults does to a request. Nothing retries: a failure after the message
data has gone out is ambiguous, and retrying it turns one password-reset
request into several emails, so this is a single bounded attempt and
deliberately not an exactly-once promise.

Email stays optional. An installation with no SMTP host is a complete
deployment, nothing sends at startup, and constructing the transport opens
no socket. There is no POST /api/v1/send-email and no route that touches
the provider — an authenticated send endpoint is an open relay with extra
steps. Modules get nothing either; services are added one at a time when
something real needs one, and nothing does yet.

Proven against a real in-process SMTP server rather than a mock: delivery
with the host's sender on the wire, authentication and its sanitized
refusal, a rejected mailbox distinguished from an outage, a refused
connection, a silent server hitting its deadline, and a starttls transport
refusing to continue when the upgrade is not offered. No test sends real
email and no live credential exists in this repository or in CI.

ekklesiaandClaude Opus 5 80189c8ae2 feat: give display devices their own paired identity
CI / verify (pull_request) Successful in 40s
CI / infrastructure-smoke (pull_request) Successful in 21s
CI / migration-smoke (pull_request) Successful in 1m22s
ADR 0033 gave Ekklesia a display host and ADR 0034 gave it a login page.
Together, the only way to light a television in a foyer was to sign a
human being into it and leave that session running on a screen anyone can
walk up to: a person's credentials on a wall, a person's session as the
thing signage depends on, and the display going dark when they are
revoked or their session simply expires.

A screen is not a person. Ekklesia now recognizes three principal classes
— anonymous, authenticated human, and managed device — and a device is a
first-class principal with its own credential and its own explicit
permissions. It has no email, no password, and no row in the identity
tables, and it satisfies the `authenticated` baseline never, so every
route that settles for "somebody is signed in" stays closed to it.

Device permissions live in their own table because
ekklesia_core_grant.user_id is a non-null foreign key into the user table
and making it polymorphic would rewrite the platform's central
authorization record to serve one narrow case. That is a schema decision,
not a second decision point: the evaluator gained one branch, so a device
is allowed or denied by the same function, with the same deny-by-default,
as anyone else — with no owner path it could reach and no baseline that
stands in for a grant.

The six-digit code is not the credential. It is printed across a screen in
a public hallway, so it is treated as public: it identifies a request to
an administrator and is worth nothing alone. Collecting the credential
also requires a 256-bit claim secret held only in the requesting browser's
HttpOnly cookie, and approving requires the restricted core.devices.manage
permission. Without that split, reading a code off a wall would hand over
the screen's identity.

The permission a pairing asks for is read from the module's validated
display declaration, never from the request, so a browser cannot ask to be
granted core.devices.manage or another module's permission. Approval
grants exactly that one permission.

Credentials are stored only as SHA-256; the raw value exists in the
Set-Cookie that issues it and the device's own cookie jar, and is never
logged, returned in JSON, or placed in a URL. The cookie is HttpOnly, so
the module display code running in that same page cannot read it.
Revocation is a server-side column checked on every principal resolution,
and re-pairing mints a new identity so an old credential can never come
back. State transitions are conditional updates, so one code cannot be
approved twice or claimed into two credentials under a race.

/api/v1/principal still reports a device as anonymous: it is what the
Dashboard uses to decide whether a person is signed in. Displays read
their viewer from the descriptor instead, which already performed the
authorization — so displays are descriptor-first while the Dashboard stays
principal-first, and neither infers an identity by elimination.

Proven end to end against real PostgreSQL and real HTTP: an unpaired
screen shows a code, an owner approves it, the device opens the display
descriptor and a realtime stream, and revocation closes both while the
device still holds its cookie. An already-open SSE stream is bounded by
realtime's existing five-minute reconnect rather than closed instantly,
and that bound is documented rather than called immediate.

CI / verify (pull_request) Successful in 41s
CI / infrastructure-smoke (pull_request) Successful in 20s
CI / migration-smoke (pull_request) Successful in 1m18s
A fresh production installation deadlocked. ADR 0034 gave Ekklesia a login
page and ADR 0019 gave it a single-use platform-owner bootstrap, but that
bootstrap grants ownership to a user id that already exists and has no way
to bring one into being. Public signup is disabled by default and
production cannot enable it at all, so a newly deployed instance had a
login page, no account, and no supported way to create one — only hand-
written SQL or briefly opening public registration.

    pnpm identity:create-initial-owner -- --email [email protected]

creates the identity and grants it ownership, in the same shape as the
other operator commands: trusted local tooling, reachable only by someone
who already holds the database credentials, serving no HTTP route. No
/signup, /register, or /setup route is added, no bootstrap endpoint, and
no setup token; public signup stays disabled in every environment and a
test asserts a freshly bootstrapped deployment still refuses
/api/auth/sign-up/email.

The identity is created through Better Auth's own sign-up path, so
hashing, salting, normalization and the 8-128 bound are the identity
system's rather than a second implementation that could drift. Because the
server's instance refuses account creation, the command builds its own
in-process instance; nothing in apps/api imports it and the running
server's posture is untouched.

The sign-up result is verified rather than trusted. Better Auth returns a
fabricated success for an already-registered address — a user object whose
id was never persisted, database unchanged. That is correct enumeration
defence on a public endpoint and a trap here, so the identity is always
read back from the database and that read, not the response, is what the
grant uses.

An existing usable identity is adopted: ownership is granted and its
password left alone, reported as an adoption rather than a creation. This
is the recovery path for the one partial failure possible, since sign-up
commits on Better Auth's connection and the grant is a separate
transaction. A credential-less row is refused instead — making it an owner
would consume the single use on an identity nobody can authenticate as. A
password is never reset and an account is never taken over.

Whole invocations are serialized by an advisory lock on their own key, so
a race cannot leave a stray signable-in account behind; the grant's own
locked single-use transaction is unchanged. There is no --force or reset.

The password is prompted for invisibly or read from stdin, never from
argv (--password is refused with an explanation) and never from an
environment variable, so nothing about it becomes permanent deployment
configuration. The command needs DATABASE_URL and nothing else — verified
that sign-up needs no secret, base URL, or trusted origins, and that the
resulting account signs in through a separately configured server — so the
first owner can be created before TLS or DNS exist. It never migrates.

Proven end to end rather than at the database: a fresh installation is
bootstrapped, signed in through the real browser login transport with
signup disabled, its principal read, and used to open an owner-protected
resource that stays closed to anonymous callers.

CI / verify (pull_request) Successful in 36s
CI / infrastructure-smoke (pull_request) Successful in 20s
CI / migration-smoke (pull_request) Successful in 56s
ADR 0030 left exactly one way to get an image to a browser: read the
object into the module's process and write it back out of a module HTTP
route. Every byte of every asset travelled storage -> Ekklesia -> browser.
For the slideshow this platform exists to replace that means Ekklesia in
the path of every image on every display, permanently, for bytes that
never change — and it would make Ekklesia responsible for re-implementing
byte ranges, without which video seeking cannot work at all.

A module can now ask a logical bucket for a temporary browser URL:

    const { url, expiresAt } = await assets.createReadUrl("slides/welcome.png");

The contract names intent, not mechanism. There is no signing, expiry
format, endpoint, or bucket in it — a host with no S3 anywhere could
satisfy the same method, which is what keeps a future single-module
standalone host able to implement it. The URL is opaque to module code and
a bearer capability to whoever holds it, so a module authorizes the
request in its own route before asking: storage bounds reach, never
identity. Lifetimes run one minute to six hours, fifteen by default, and
out-of-range values are refused rather than clamped, so "expires forever"
is unreachable. Logical keys stay canonical state; URLs are generated on
demand and never persisted or logged.

The provider endpoint and the browser delivery origin are separated
because measurement showed they cannot be collapsed: an S3-compatible
signature covers the request Host, so a URL signed for one origin and
rewritten to another is rejected. The browser-facing origin is therefore a
signing input (S3_DELIVERY_ENDPOINT), defaulting to S3_ENDPOINT — so the
standard deployment configures nothing and delivery just works. The scheme
is not signed, so a reverse proxy may terminate TLS provided it passes the
original Host through; that is pinned by a test rather than described and
hoped for.

Read URLs are stable within a window of one third of their lifetime.
Signing is a pure function of the clock, so naive re-signing yields a new
URL per second — a guaranteed browser cache miss, and the reference client
keys its <img> by URL, so an unchanged image would be torn down and
re-downloaded continuously. Quantizing the signing timestamp makes
repeated calls byte-identical while leaving at least two-thirds of the
lifetime; Cache-Control is set at signing time to the guaranteed
remainder, because the pinned SeaweedFS image sends none of its own.

Verified against live SeaweedFS: byte ranges answered directly with 206
and a correct Content-Range, so no range proxy is needed in Core; signing
is local (200 URLs in 66ms), so no batch API is needed; unsigned requests
for the same object are refused, so delivery never depends on a public
bucket; tampered signatures, swapped keys, and swapped buckets all
rejected. Signed write and delete URLs are deliberately not built.

- A module declares a logical bucket and receives a scoped facade at
  `context.storage` — list, head, get, put, delete. The contract names no
  provider: no endpoint, region, credential, or physical bucket is reachable
  from it, which is what lets the same module run under a future standalone
  host over its own or a shared S3-compatible service.
- Core's first provider speaks S3 through the AWS SDK. SeaweedFS is the
  deployment target (ADR 0004), never an API name. Probing the pinned image
  found `CreateBucket` reporting `BucketAlreadyExists` rather than AWS's
  `BucketAlreadyOwnedByYou`; treating only the AWS spelling as success would
  have failed every second boot. A live test pins it.
- Logical → physical mapping is deterministic and collision-safe: an
  installation prefix, the module and bucket ids joined by `--` (which cannot
  occur inside either identifier, so `a-b`+`c` and `a`+`b-c` cannot collide),
  and a digest over the full untruncated identity. Two modules declaring
  `assets` always get separate namespaces; neither can see the physical name.
- Declaring a bucket is now a requirement: with no provider configured the
  module is `blocked · storage_unavailable` through ADR 0028's existing
  resolver, propagating to required dependents. An installation with no object
  storage stays a complete deployment.
- Binding availability is not provider health. Eligibility asks whether
  storage is configured, never whether it answered; bucket creation is lazy on
  first use so a storage outage cannot stop the platform booting; a running
  module whose store blinks stays running and retries. Nothing deletes a
  bucket.
- Credentials are deployment-supplied, never persisted, never routed through
  module configuration, and never visible to modules, module UI, diagnostics,
  or API responses. Provider errors translate to a closed code set carrying no
  endpoint, bucket, request id, or XML.
- Retires ADR 0029's transitional `bucket` configuration key. No manifest
  version change. The template declares no bucket, so it still runs without S3.

CI / verify (pull_request) Successful in 35s
CI / infrastructure-smoke (pull_request) Successful in 21s
CI / migration-smoke (pull_request) Successful in 46s
Modules had no way to be told anything. Announcements — the first real
product Ekklesia will absorb — has zero environment variables and compiles
a LAN IP address into its source, so this is the contract standing between
it and the module system.

- A module declares what it needs in its manifest, using six bounded types
  (string, integer, boolean, enum, url, secret) with no nesting and no
  regular expressions. Static declaration is what lets the platform validate
  configuration *before* deciding whether a module may start: an enabled
  module missing a required value is reported `blocked ·
  configuration_missing · <key>` rather than taking startup down from inside
  its own `start` hook, and Doctor reports the same while still importing no
  module code. That forces `manifestVersion: 5`, a hard cutover.
- Ordinary values persist in one Core table (migration 0005), one row per
  (module_id, key), stored as text until validated against the declaring
  module's current manifest. Nothing is coerced; an invalid stored value
  blocks the module rather than falling back to the default. A key the
  manifest no longer declares is retained and ignored.
- Secrets are never persisted. There is no encryption at rest in this
  repository, so a `secret` key is deployment-supplied and mapped in by the
  host under a name the module never sees. A secret declaration has no
  `default` field, the write API refuses secret material, and the HTTP view
  has no `value` field for one — absent by construction, not filtered.
- Modules receive a frozen `context.config` on the registration, runtime,
  and HTTP handler contexts: the same object identity, per module, beside
  `services` rather than inside it (services is deliberately one shared
  instance). No environment access, no database reference, no way to reach
  another module's values.
- Configuration decides eligibility through ADR 0028's existing resolver:
  three new blocked reasons, each with a distinct operator fix, propagating
  to required dependents through the same mechanism as a disabled module.
- Changes take effect at the next restart; both resources report
  restartRequired. New restricted permission
  `core.modules.configuration.manage`, separate from lifecycle, at the
  sibling prefix `/api/v1/module-configuration`.
- Migration participation stays independent of configuration validity.
  Endpoints and credentials for shared infrastructure stay platform
  concerns; a module declares which bucket it needs, not an S3 endpoint.

CI / verify (pull_request) Successful in 35s
CI / infrastructure-smoke (pull_request) Successful in 13s
CI / migration-smoke (pull_request) Successful in 46s
Ekklesia had no notion of a module being on or off: the accepted module set
was exactly "whatever discovery found on disk", and `ModuleLifecycleStage`
named nine states nothing produced or consumed. This replaces that vocabulary
with two axes that real code produces — persistent, administrator-owned
configuration (`enabled`/`disabled`) and per-boot runtime observation
(`running`/`disabled`/`blocked`) — and wires them through startup.

- One Core table (`ekklesia_core_module_state`, migration 0004) holding only
  `module_id` and `enabled`. A module with no record is enabled by default, so
  deploying a module is still sufficient to run it and discovery never needs an
  initialization write. A record for an undeployed module is retained and
  ignored, so redeploying restores the decision.
- `resolveModuleEligibility` is pure: a disabled module transitively blocks
  every module that *requires* it (module and capability edges alike) with a
  structured reason naming the provider; optional dependencies never block; and
  a missing, incompatible, or cyclic dependency stays discovery's concern.
- `startApi` starts only the eligible set and builds the UI publication
  registry from that same list, so routes, artifacts, browser inventory, and
  Dashboard navigation all follow one authoritative set. A disabled module is
  never imported, so there is no per-request enablement check anywhere.
- Startup stays all-or-nothing, deliberately; there is consequently no `failed`
  runtime state. `pnpm modules:enable`/`modules:disable` is the out-of-band
  recovery path for a module that breaks startup.
- Changes take effect at the next start, and the read model reports
  configuration, runtime, and `restartRequired` separately rather than claiming
  a module stopped when it has not.
- Migration participation and permission composition still span the deployed
  and discovered inventories respectively, unchanged.
- New restricted platform permission `core.modules.lifecycle.manage` gates both
  reading and changing enablement, at a sibling prefix (`/api/v1/module-lifecycle`)
  that cannot collide with the module route namespace.
- `pnpm doctor` gains a `modules.lifecycle` check so "why is this module
  unavailable?" is answerable without reading logs.

ekklesiaandClaude Opus 5 bd34c9c714 feat: add Dashboard navigation as presentation configuration
CI / verify (pull_request) Successful in 34s
CI / infrastructure-smoke (pull_request) Successful in 12s
CI / migration-smoke (pull_request) Successful in 44s
Phase 6D pass 1. The shell's navigation was a flat list of module ids, which
is not a usable experience — and the obvious fix carries an obvious trap.
Letting a module declare its folder, or modelling "Media" as something
Livestream and Video belong to, turns a rendering preference into
architecture: a folder becomes an owner, membership starts to look like a
dependency, and the flat module graph acquires a hierarchy nobody decided on.

So the rule comes first: a Dashboard group is a label on a rendering bucket.
No manifest, no version, no artifact, no API, no lifecycle; nothing depends on
it. Livestream depends on Video because it calls Video's functionality, and
that orders startup. Livestream is shown under Media, and that orders nothing.
No parent module, child module, owning module, or group-derived dependency
appears anywhere in the contracts.

No manifest change and no version 5. `manifest.name` has been required since
version 1 and already is the module's product identity, so the shell renders
"Livestream" instead of `livestream` with nothing added. `suggestedGroup` is
deliberately deferred rather than shipped: it would force a hard
manifest-version cutover for a hint, and its only correct semantics needs
initialization logic that risks a suggestion overwriting an administrator's
decision. Defaulting and ownership are different things.

Two Core tables (migration 0003) hold groups and placements — server-side,
because a church configures its Dashboard rather than one browser;
platform-global, because no organization model exists to scope them to.
`group_id` is `on delete set null`, so deleting a group ungroups its modules
and a dangling reference is impossible. `module_id` carries no foreign key,
because modules are packages rather than rows, so a placement for an
uninstalled module is retained and restores its position on reinstall.

`resolveDashboardNavigation` is a pure function of configuration plus the
mountable set: an unplaced module is ungrouped and visible with no
initialization write, an absent module renders nothing, empty groups are kept,
and ordering is total with the module id as final tie-break.

`GET /api/v1/dashboard/navigation` returns the resolved view, layered on top of
the host-neutral module UI inventory rather than merged into it — each generic
descriptor is embedded untouched, so a standalone host never inherits Dashboard
semantics. Reading needs the permission the inventory already needs; organizing
needs the new platform permission `core.dashboard.navigation.manage` through a
narrow, idempotent, closed-validation mutation contract. No editor UI.

The flatness rule is executable: a test discovers real fixtures with a genuine
dependency, arranges them four ways including both in one folder and the
dependency inverted in presentation, and asserts discovery order, dependency
declarations, and the module set stay byte-identical. The end-to-end test
organizes a real installation through the real API, mounts a module from inside
a group, moves it, and asserts the navigation entry is byte-identical across the
move and still mounts the same artifact.

The shell's client for the generic inventory became dead code and was removed
rather than kept speculatively; the endpoint itself is unchanged.

CI / verify (pull_request) Successful in 34s
CI / infrastructure-smoke (pull_request) Successful in 21s
CI / migration-smoke (pull_request) Successful in 43s
Phase 6C pass 2. Every link in the module UI chain existed except the one
that closes it: a module could be authored, built, validated, published at a
browser URL, and loaded by a generic loader — and nothing in Ekklesia did any
of it. There was no browser application at all.

Two pieces were missing. A browser could not discover what to mount, and it
must not work that out for itself.

GET /api/v1/module-ui is the inventory: per publishable module, its id and
version, the server-produced artifact URL, the server-produced root of the
module's own API, and the subset of that module's declared permissions the
caller holds. Five fields, each because building a ModuleUiHostContext needs
it — no filesystem paths, and no name/icon/folder/order, because navigation
metadata is a design that does not exist yet. Its module set is the ADR 0025
publication registry rather than a rescan, so the inventory and the artifact
route cannot disagree. It requires a new Core permission, core.modules.ui.read
(baseline authenticated), because it is precisely the enumeration the anonymous
artifact route deliberately withholds.

Both URLs are server-produced. moduleUiArtifactUrl already existed;
moduleApiBaseUrl is now exported and moduleRoutePath builds on it, so each URL
shape has exactly one author. Without it the shell would hardcode
/api/v1/modules/<id> — the prefix ADR 0022 forbids a module UI from spelling,
reappearing in the host instead.

surfaces/shell (@ekklesia/shell) is the repository's first surface: a small
React application built to static files by its own esbuild script. It resolves
the principal, fetches the inventory, builds the host context entirely from
server-derived data, and hands the artifact URL to @ekklesia/module-ui-host.
One frame per selection — keyed by module identity — defeats the stale-load
race; the host owns the container, the loading state, and every failure, so a
broken module costs its own panel rather than the shell.

The shell statically imports no module, and both levels are checked: no source
import may name a module, and the emitted bundle must contain exactly one
dynamic import (the loader's) with no module id, no /api/v1/modules, no eval,
and no blob URL. Permission hints come from Core's own evaluator and stay
presentation-only — the end-to-end test has a UI holding no grant call its API
anyway and still receive 403.

Surfaces may now depend only on browser-safe shared roles; @ekklesia/contracts
is deliberately excluded, since its barrel pulls Drizzle's types and Node's
globals into the browser — the hole ADR 0024 closed one layer down.

Not the Dashboard: no navigation, grouping, icons, ordering, design system, or
routing. The selector is a list of module ids.

CI / verify (pull_request) Successful in 32s
CI / infrastructure-smoke (pull_request) Successful in 13s
CI / migration-smoke (pull_request) Successful in 41s
Phase 6C pass 1. ADR 0024 named the one thing missing between the module UI
build pipeline and the generic host loader: Core resolves entrypoints.ui to an
absolute server filesystem path, and a browser needs a URL. This adds that
publication layer.

Core owns the policy. createModuleUiPublicationRegistry builds, from the
discovered and started module inventory, the answer to "may this be published,
and which exact file is it?" — publishable means the module survived discovery
and declares entrypoints.ui, with no new lifecycle state and no installer.

apps/api owns the transport: GET /api/v1/module-ui/<module-id>/<version>. Both
segments are lookup keys, not path components. An exact match yields the
canonical artifact path discovery already validated; no request value is ever
composed into a filesystem path, and the route declares no wildcard segment, so
traversal, encoded separators, sibling chunks, package-root files, and source
maps are unreachable by construction. An installed module directory never
becomes a static file root.

The prefix is a sibling of /api/v1/modules/, not a child: `ui` is a legal module
route segment, so a module registering GET /ui/:version would otherwise compete
with the platform for one URL with routing order deciding the winner.

The route requires no authentication, deliberately. Fetching the bundle confers
no authority, and a cookie-gated route would break cross-origin import(), which
sends none. The cost is stated rather than hidden: a caller who knows a module
id and its exact version can download that bundle. The three failure modes
return one identical 404 so the route is not an enumeration oracle.

Caching is no-cache with a strong SHA-256 ETag and RFC 9110 If-None-Match
handling, not immutable: without an installer nothing stops a version being
rebuilt with different bytes. The server reads bytes and writes bytes — never
imports, evaluates, or transforms the artifact.

Nothing mounts a module UI. A host could now obtain a URL, which was previously
impossible; there is still no Dashboard shell, navigation, or metadata endpoint.

CI / verify (pull_request) Successful in 36s
CI / infrastructure-smoke (pull_request) Successful in 20s
CI / migration-smoke (pull_request) Successful in 41s
Two gaps stood between the module UI contract and a host that could use
it. ADR 0023 recorded the first honestly but never diagnosed it: a module
UI file compiled with `"types": []` could still typecheck `process.env`.
The second was simply missing — nothing imported a compiled artifact,
checked its identity, mounted it, or tore it down.

The leak was one type-only import, bisected against the real type graph
rather than guessed. `@ekklesia/module-ui-sdk` imported
`type { EkklesiaPrincipal } from "@ekklesia/contracts"`. Importing
contracts/identity alone is clean and importing Zod alone is clean, but
contracts exposes a single barrel entry, so that one import reached
module-database, whose Drizzle types re-introduce Node's globals. The
runtime was never affected — the import was erased and host-context.js is
`export {}` — but a type-graph leak is still a real boundary failure,
because it silently permits code that cannot run in its target
environment.

The fix is not a narrower import path. The SDK now has no dependencies at
all, so there is no graph to leak through and no future contracts change
can reopen this. It owns `ModuleUiPrincipal`: the same shape ADR 0022
chose, with the Zod brand dropped. That brand encodes a server-side
parsing guarantee a browser cannot produce, and it is the same reason
`permissions.has` already took a plain string. An Ekklesia host still
passes its own `EkklesiaPrincipal` straight through — a branded string is
assignable to `string` — while a standalone host builds the literal.
Proven the way an author experiences it: two fixtures compiled under the
exact project a module uses, one supported and one deliberately reaching
for `process`, with the second required to fail on that specific name.

`@ekklesia/module-ui-host` is the generic loader, in its own package
because the SDK is bundled into every module artifact and host-only
loader code has no business shipping there. The boundary checker enforces
both directions: modules may not depend on the loader, and the loader may
depend only on the SDK plus dev-time tooling.

The distinction that shaped the design: Core resolves `entrypoints.ui` to
an absolute path on the server's disk, and a browser needs a URL. A
loader that accepted the path would test green on a server and fail in
every real host, and would quietly own asset publication. So the loader
takes a browser-loadable URL and knows nothing about how one is obtained.
Ekklesia has no route that publishes installed artifacts, so this is
precisely: loader complete, publication deferred. Nothing can mount an
installed module UI yet, and the docs say so rather than implying
otherwise.

Dynamic import is `(url) => import(url)` with a non-analyzable specifier,
kept as a runtime import so a host does not statically bundle every
installed module or need a hardcoded registry. It is injectable for
bundlers needing their own escape hatch, and deliberately not `eval` or
`new Function`, which would cost a host `unsafe-eval` in its CSP.

Identity is validated through the SDK's existing parser before `mount`
runs, so a stale or mismatched bundle never renders. Contract violations
propagate unwrapped; the loader adds only import and mount failure codes,
sanitized, with the cause attached. Unmount is idempotent, safe when a
module returned no cleanup, and marks an instance unmounted before
running cleanup so a throwing cleanup surfaces once and never re-runs. A
failed mount registers no cleanup. Each instance owns its own state, so
two mounts coexist. The loader never mutates the host's container — not
on success, failure, or unmount.

Tests prove all of it against real module URLs (`data:`, which both
browsers and Node import natively) rather than filesystem paths,
including one artifact built by the canonical Pass 2 pipeline and run
under both an Ekklesia-shaped and a standalone-shaped context. Core,
apps/api, and the contracts package are untouched; discovery remains
inert.

ekklesiaandClaude Opus 5 8d651c427d feat: define the module UI authoring model and host contract
CI / verify (pull_request) Successful in 30s
CI / infrastructure-smoke (pull_request) Successful in 23s
CI / migration-smoke (pull_request) Successful in 45s
ADR 0021 established that a module may own UI and added a statically
validated, never-executed `entrypoints.ui` path, but deliberately left
five questions open: what the artifact exports, what a host provides,
how one artifact runs under both Ekklesia and a standalone host, what
the browser-side trust model is, and how module UI avoids being welded
to a Dashboard that does not exist. This answers them.

React and TypeScript are the supported module UI authoring model. The
repository already leaned this way: `packages/typescript-config` ships a
`browser.json` preset and a `react-native.json` preset with
`"jsx": "react-jsx"`, and ADR 0002 names browser and React Native
configurations. One framework is supported; every other stays rejected.

React is deliberately not part of the contract. A module's compiled
artifact default-exports `defineModuleUi({ id, version, mount })`, and
`mount(container, context)` takes a DOM element and returns an unmount
function. `id` and `version` are build-artifact identity markers a host
verifies against the manifest, mirroring `defineModuleRuntime` exactly.
A host needs an element and a context, never a matching rendering
library, so a module's framework, a host's framework, and the platform
boundary between them stay independent.

The contract lives in a new `@ekklesia/module-ui-sdk` rather than in
`@ekklesia/module-sdk`, for a concrete reason: that package re-exports
all of `@ekklesia/contracts`, so routing module UI through it would drag
Zod, Drizzle, and semver into every browser bundle. The new package has
no runtime dependencies, and its one dependency on contracts is
type-only — the emitted `host-context.js` is `export {};`, and a test
pins that so it cannot regress.

The host context is four members: `moduleId`, `api`, `principal`, and
`permissions`. Navigation, theme, module configuration, organization
context, and diagnostics are deliberately absent; each needs a design
that does not exist. Module UI reaches its backend through
`api.request(path)` with a path relative to its own API root and never
constructs `/api/v1/modules/<id>/...`, which is Ekklesia's private
deployment detail — a module that builds that URL is silently unhostable
anywhere else. One fixture artifact is mounted under two hosts with
different origins and URL shapes to prove it.

Client-side permission hints are presentation only, and both the docs
and a test say so plainly: a denied hint does not stop the module from
calling its API, because server-side `requirePermission` is the only
authority. Module UI is trusted code in the host's own browser realm —
no iframe, no sandbox — which matches the backend model rather than
overstating it, since a module's server half already holds the API's
database authority.

The boundary guard is narrowed precisely, not removed: `.tsx`, `react`,
and `react-dom` are un-denied and modules may depend on the new
`module-ui-sdk` role. `.jsx`, `.css`, every other framework,
`react-router-dom`, `react-native`, and `@vitejs/plugin-react` stay
denied, layer rules are untouched, and an unsupported framework aliased
behind an allowed name (`"react": "npm:vue@3"`) is resolved and rejected
by its real target. Fixtures prove each case, including that module UI
source still cannot import Core.

Core, apps/api, and the manifest contract are untouched. Discovery still
validates the `entrypoints.ui` path and never evaluates it; hosts
perform their own dynamic import and validate the result with
`parseModuleUiExport`. No Dashboard shell, UI runtime, navigation,
grouping, standalone host, build or styling pipeline, installer,
hot-loading, or feature module is added.

CI / verify (pull_request) Successful in 2m31s
CI / infrastructure-smoke (pull_request) Successful in 15s
CI / migration-smoke (pull_request) Successful in 49s
Ekklesia's module model has been backend-only since ADR 0001: a module
owns domain behavior and data, and every presentation concern belongs to
a surface. That prevents a module author — the person who knows the
domain — from shipping the screen that makes their module useful, and it
guarantees a module and its own UI drift apart. It also pushes toward two
codebases for one domain the moment a module needs to run standalone.

ADR 0021 replaces that rule. A module is an independently versioned
product that owns its domain behavior, data, permissions, routes,
migrations, and its own UI, hostable inside Ekklesia and — from the same
implementation — by a later standalone host. Core keeps the containing
application shell and every platform policy: authentication,
authorization enforcement, platform context, top-level routing,
navigation, global theme, error boundaries, and trusted-origin/CORS. The
module graph stays flat: modules are peers, genuine module and capability
dependencies remain the only relationships, and Dashboard folders are
presentation configuration an administrator can reorganize, never module
architecture.

This pass implements the static contract only. `manifestVersion` moves to
4 and `entrypoints` gains one optional field, `ui`. Version 3's
`entrypoints` is strict and rejects `ui`, so this is an incompatible
shape change and version 3 is now rejected outright rather than
reinterpreted, exactly as version 1 was by version 2 and version 2 by
version 3. Every field version 4 adds is optional, so upgrading a
backend-only manifest is a one-character edit.

Discovery resolves and validates `ui` under the same rules as `server`
and `schema` — package-relative, inside the package before and after
symlink resolution, a real file, compiled ESM `.js`/`.mjs`, so source
TypeScript is rejected rather than assumed to be compiled later.
Discovery stays inert: nothing imports, evaluates, mounts, or renders a
UI entrypoint, and a test proves a throwing artifact still discovers
successfully. This follows `entrypoints.jobs`, declared and resolved
since ADR 0006 with no runtime consumer.

The name is `ui`, not `dashboard`, because a module's UI must be hostable
by Ekklesia's shell and by a standalone host, so the contract cannot be
named after one of them; and not `surface`, because `surfaces/*` is a
separate ownership layer. No widget, route, icon, folder, menu, layout,
or standalone-metadata field is added, and tests assert the manifest
still rejects every unknown entrypoint key and offers no hierarchy field.

Deliberately unchanged: `scripts/check-boundaries.ts` still enforces
`modules-do-not-own-ui`. Relaxing that guard depends entirely on the UI
authoring model a later pass chooses, and weakening a working protection
before that decision exists would trade real coverage for nothing. A
module may therefore declare `ui` today only for a framework-neutral
compiled artifact, and the docs say so rather than implying otherwise.
Restart-based discovery, explicit operator-invoked migrations, and the
trusted compiled-module model are untouched — a module that ships UI is
exactly as trusted as one that does not.

No Dashboard shell, UI runtime, renderer, framework choice, navigation
registry, grouping system, standalone host, installer, hot-loading, or
feature module is added by this pass.

The documentation still described Phase 5D as in progress, Phase 6 as
blocked, and a disposable-runner isolation proof as a prerequisite for
opening the real pull request. All five passes and the independent
whole-repository re-audit have landed, so those statements no longer
match the accepted operating model.

The README's current status now records Phase 5D as complete under the
current trusted-contributor, not-yet-deployed threat model, with Phase 6
unblocked, and gains a pass 5 closure paragraph covering the re-audit,
the repository-local supply-chain and dependency fixes, the accepted
trusted-code-only CI boundary, and what remains required before
untrusted CI or a public launch. The pass 1-4 paragraphs keep their
technical content unchanged; only their tense changes, so each reads as
what was outstanding at the close of that pass rather than as a current
claim.

`platform-architecture.md` no longer stops at pass 1 or says passes 2-5
are unfinished; it summarizes all five passes and defers the remaining
operational limitations to the security document.

`security.md` states the trusted-code-only operating rule explicitly and
replaces "CI blockers before the real pull request is opened" with
"Requirements before executing untrusted contributions", framing the five
hardening items as prerequisites for relaxing that rule rather than as
Phase 6 blockers, and naming an isolated hosted-runner service as an
accepted alternative. The Gitea 1.24.2 warnings, the scope of
`persist-credentials: false`, and the unverified runner topology and
job-token authority are preserved verbatim; no external Gitea setting is
claimed. The launch checklist is marked as gating a public launch, not
development.

Both Doctor examples are corrected to the real three-migration output,
adding `core:0002_authorization_integrity · 634294731180`. The stale
sentence calling Core authorization the next architectural phase is
refreshed.

ADRs 0017-0020 are untouched: their statements that later passes were
outstanding are historical records made when each was accepted.

Documentation only — no production code, test, workflow, dependency,
migration, or schema change.

The security document claimed the CI workflow "is least privilege" because it
declares `permissions: contents: read`. That is not true on the server this
repository actually uses.

The inventoried server is Gitea 1.24.2, and its official comparison page lists
`permissions` / `jobs.<job_id>.permissions`, `concurrency`, and
`jobs.<job_id>.timeout-minutes` under unsupported workflow syntax — verified
against https://docs.gitea.com/1.24/usage/actions/comparison rather than assumed.
On this server those keys are inert, so the branch cannot claim the in-job
GITEA_TOKEN is read-only, and cannot claim YAML-enforced timeout or concurrency
behavior. Job-token permission controls, repository/owner defaults, and
server-side maximum-permission clamping arrive in the 1.26 feature line
(https://docs.gitea.com/1.26/usage/actions/token-permissions).

The document now separates what is actually true of this repository — full-SHA
action pins, frozen-lockfile install, no pull_request_target, no referenced
secret, `persist-credentials: false` on every checkout, and the declared
`permissions` block — from what the server enforces. It also states precisely
what `persist-credentials: false` proves: checkout leaves no credential in
`.git/config` for a later step, which is not the same as removing or reducing
the job token. The CI blockers are recorded: upgrade to a reviewed supported
release, configure repository/owner defaults and a maximum permission, prove
against the real server what the token cannot do, move timeout/cancellation/
teardown into the trusted provisioner and reaper, and finish the disposable-guest
proof before opening the real pull request.

The workflow keeps every declaration — they are already correct for a supported
Gitea release and for GitHub Actions — and gains a comment saying plainly that
this server ignores them, so no future reader mistakes them for enforcement.

Nothing about runners, proxies, firewalls, or deployment is asserted here.

ekklesiaandClaude Opus 5 07a3c61083 docs: define deployment trust boundaries
One canonical security document, linked from the README, platform architecture,
and module-development guide, stating what the boundaries actually protect
against — and, more importantly, what they do not.

Installed modules are trusted compiled backend code. A module runs arbitrary
JavaScript inside the API process and shares its PostgreSQL role and pool, so
`ModuleDatabase.execute` gives it the API's full database authority over every
table, including identity, grants, owner, bootstrap, and audit. Table prefixes,
manifests, permission declarations, route validation, frozen contexts, typed
facades, and the capability registry are correctness and coordination boundaries
that assume a cooperative module; none of them constrains one that is not. There
is no process, container, syscall, filesystem, network, database-role, schema,
tenant, or resource sandbox between a module and Core, and the document says so
in those words, along with what would have to be built before untrusted modules
could be accepted.

It also records the honest deployment state: Ekklesia is not deployed. There is
no production instance, reverse proxy, public listener, or deployment automation
anywhere in this repository, and no `.env` has ever been committed. The loopback
listen default and the production signup refusal are real, but a config default
is not a firewall, so the origin-reachability, proxy-overwrite, header-spoofing,
and trusted-peer properties a public launch needs are written as a
launch-blocking checklist rather than as guarantees. The per-process
authentication limiter is described as exactly that, valid only while signup
stays disabled and exactly one instance serves traffic.

The CI section records the workflow's verified posture and deliberately stops
there: a pull request can edit `runs-on`, so a workflow file cannot be the
boundary, and the runner topology is not described as though it had been
verified.

ekklesiaandClaude Opus 5 6912680113 fix: prevent migration timeout overrides
pg-connection-string retains arbitrary query keys, so the driver's own
configuration key connectionTimeoutMillis reaches ConnectionParameters straight
from a URL — and it was not on the rejected list, while spellings that do
nothing were. Rejecting it closes that gap.

The precedence claims that guard was built on were partly wrong, so every source
was measured against the installed [email protected].0, a real blackhole listener, and a
real PostgreSQL rather than inferred from the merge:

  statement_timeout=0 / =900000   server reported 0 and 15min — wins outright
  query_timeout=0                 overrides the field, but the parsed value is
                                  the string "0", which is truthy, so every
                                  query gets a 0 ms read timer and fails
                                  nondeterministically — it breaks the client
                                  rather than loosening the bound
  connectionTimeoutMillis=0/900000 pollutes connectionParameters.connect_timeout
                                  (10 -> 0 or 900 s), but that field only feeds
                                  getLibpqConnectionString(), which the pure-JS
                                  client never calls; the effective timer was
                                  unchanged, with an explicit 500 ms still
                                  expiring at ~500 ms either way
  connect_timeout=0               no effect: recomputed from the explicit field
  options=-c statement_timeout=…  no effect, including a backslash-escaped
                                  spelling — the named startup parameter wins
  PGOPTIONS / PGCONNECT_TIMEOUT   no effect
  unrelated parameters            no effect, deliberately untouched

Only statement_timeout is a genuine downgrade. The rest are rejected as
unsupported configuration and defense in depth: no legitimate DATABASE_URL
carries a driver option, the polluted connect_timeout would take effect on the
native binding, and query_timeout produces intermittent failures an operator
could not diagnose. That distinction is now stated where it was previously
asserted wrongly — the earlier comment and ADR text claimed connect_timeout
overrode the explicit field, which measurement disproved.

Rejection still happens at the one shared construction boundary, before any
pg.Client exists, with the existing fixed POSTGRES_MIGRATION_CONFIGURATION_INVALID
and no URL, host, port, credential, parameter, or value in the message. The
10 s defaults, narrower test overrides, Pass 2 TLS policy and its URL-conflict
checks, and every unrelated parameter are unchanged.

ekklesiaandClaude Opus 5 2983789779 fix: harden migration command execution
Two problems in the migration commands: no timeouts, and SQL split on literal
bytes.

`migrations:plan` and `migrations:apply` constructed their connection with
neither a connection deadline nor an operation deadline — a real server reported
`statement_timeout = 0` on the migration connection. Both now default to 10
seconds for the connection deadline, the client query timeout, and PostgreSQL's
own statement_timeout, applied at the one shared construction boundary so a
future call site cannot silently omit them. History reads, advisory-lock
queries, transaction control, migration SQL, and history writes are all covered.
The existing lock-wait deadline, the Pass 2 TLS policy, and Doctor's and the
bootstrap CLI's own timeouts are untouched, and no environment variable or flag
was added.

Explicit client fields do not win under the pinned driver. [email protected].0 builds
parameters as `Object.assign({}, config, parse(config.connectionString))`, so
the URL overrides passed options — verified directly, where an explicit
statement_timeout of 10000 alongside `?statement_timeout=0` produced a
server-reported 0, while a clean URL produced 10s. A DATABASE_URL carrying
connect_timeout, query_timeout, statement_timeout, or an `options` value setting
statement_timeout is therefore refused with the existing fixed configuration
error, before any client is constructed and without echoing the URL, parameter,
or value. Unrelated parameters are left alone.

The runner split each migration on the literal `--> statement-breakpoint` bytes.
Those bytes inside a string literal, a dollar-quoted function body, a quoted
identifier, or a comment tore the migration into fragments that were no longer
valid SQL — each case verified to produce two fragments where one was required.
Each migration's exact SQL is now passed to the client once, with no values and
no prepared-statement name, inside the existing transaction, and its history row
inserted only after that batch succeeds. One transaction still spans all pending
migrations; advisory locking, checksum validation, approval preflight, ordering,
rollback, cleanup, and sanitized error identity are unchanged. The port method
is renamed executeStatement to executeMigrationSql so the contract says what it
receives.

PostgreSQL parses the batch because it owns the only correct parser. A homegrown
splitter would have to track single quotes, dollar quoting with arbitrary tags,
quoted identifiers, line comments, nested block comments, and escape syntax to
answer a question the server already answers, and a parser dependency would add
supply-chain surface for the same reason. Drizzle's marker lines are ordinary
`--` comments when the batch is sent whole. No custom SQL parser exists here.

ekklesiaandClaude Opus 5 490b85b07c fix: bound module lifecycle shutdown
Nothing bounded shutdown, and a module that failed to start was never cleaned up.

`startModules` appended to its rollback set only after `start()` resolved, so a
hook that acquired a connection, registered a listener, or recorded partial
initialization and then threw had its own `stop()` skipped, while every
previously completed module was rolled back correctly. A module now joins the
rollback set the moment its start hook is invoked: its own stop hook runs first,
then earlier modules in reverse order. The original start issue stays first in
the reported issues, and a failure stopping the failing module is appended
without preventing the rest of the rollback. The consequence for module authors
is explicit and documented — `stop()` may run after a partially completed
`start()` and must be safe and idempotent about resources it may or may not
hold.

Neither stage of shutdown had a deadline. `shutdown()` awaited `server.close()`
with no bound, so one open connection could hold it forever, and each stop or
rollback hook was awaited without a bound, so a hook that never settled kept the
pool open indefinitely. Both now have fixed, non-configurable defaults: 10
seconds per module hook and 30 seconds for the graceful HTTP drain. A hook that
reaches its deadline records MODULE_STOP_TIMEOUT or MODULE_ROLLBACK_TIMEOUT and
the sequence continues with the next module, so the whole stop sequence is
finite in the started module count rather than one global ten-second bound.
Timers that lose the race are cleared, the losing promise gets a permanent
rejection handler so a late throw cannot become an unhandled rejection, and a
timed-out hook is never awaited again.

At the drain deadline the platform closes idle and then active connections
through Node's own public closeIdleConnections/closeAllConnections, after
server.close(), touching no private field, and stops waiting for the close
callback. It then runs the bounded module stop sequence and closes the pool, so
a drain timeout or a stop failure never skips later cleanup. Both are reported
together as an ApiShutdownError carrying only fixed booleans and the already
sanitized module error; a forced drain is a shutdown failure, not a success.

Stated honestly rather than overstated: a deadline bounds how long the platform
waits, not how long module code runs. An in-process promise cannot be canceled,
and closing a socket does not prove a handler promise ended. What is guaranteed
is that shutdown stops waiting and the pool closes afterwards, so late database
work fails.

ekklesiaandClaude Opus 5 5c589d8fec fix: enforce explicit grant invariants
Explicit-grant management could produce states an operator could not reason
about, and pushed request-shaped problems into the database.

Two identical createGrant calls produced two grants; five concurrent identical
calls produced five. Revoking one returned success while the equivalent kept
authorizing the same user — an operator could believe they had removed access
that was still live. Two issuances are now the same authorization source when
user_id, permission_id, scope, source_kind, and source_ref are all equal, with
NULL equal only to NULL; expiry, creation metadata, actor, and grant id do not
distinguish them. Creating one while an equivalent is currently effective fails
with AUTHORIZATION_GRANT_ALREADY_EXISTS (HTTP 409, no-store) naming nothing about
the grant that already exists, and writing no grant and no audit row. A revoked
or expired equivalent does not block a fresh issuance. Conflict rather than
idempotent return: the caller asked to record a new authorization with their own
actor and expiry, and answering "done" while recording neither would hide that
nothing happened.

Enforcement is database-backed, since nothing constrains the number of API
processes: every create and revoke touching one equivalence tuple takes a
transaction-scoped advisory lock keyed by a hash of that tuple, encoded as a JSON
array so NULL stays distinct from the empty string and a crafted scope cannot
forge a separator. A collision can only make unrelated tuples serialize, never
hide a conflict, because the decision is always an exact SQL predicate. Its
single-key lock space is verified disjoint from the two-key space the migration
runner and bootstrap use. A time-dependent partial unique index was rejected:
now() is not immutable and cannot be indexed.

One revocation now clears every unrevoked equivalent — including expired-but-
unrevoked legacy rows, so the history is left in one state — with one audit row
per grant actually revoked, each carrying its own id, in one transaction.
Differently scoped or sourced grants are untouched. Historical duplicates are not
silently revoked by migration; the store prevents new effective equivalents and
an operator's explicit revocation resolves the class.

The request boundary no longer leaks into PostgreSQL. GrantId accepts exactly the
canonical lowercase hyphenated UUID the database emits, with no trimming and no
case folding, so a malformed path parameter is a 400 decided after authorization
but before any store call instead of reaching the UUID comparison and returning
an indistinguishable 503; a canonical unknown id still returns 404. expiresAt
accepts exactly YYYY-MM-DDTHH:mm:ss.sssZ, byte-for-byte equal to the parsed
date's own toISOString, and must be strictly future — bare new Date silently
rewrote 2026-02-31 to March 3rd and accepted locale, date-only, offset, and
millisecond-free forms, and a past expiry was stored as a grant dead on arrival.
The store validates the same thing before any SQL so trusted internal callers get
the guarantee too.

The generic HTTP surface now rejects a scope field in every form, including null.
No route middleware supplies a scope to the evaluator, so a scope accepted here
produced a grant that persisted, listed, and authorized nothing. Core's scope
semantics are unchanged for internal callers; no resolver was added.

Listing was unbounded and returned a user's entire history. It is now keyset
pagination over created_at DESC, id DESC with a strict boundary on both values,
so rows sharing a timestamp are neither skipped nor repeated, at most limit + 1
rows read, explicit-source filtering server-side on every page, and an opaque
unsigned position cursor that is strictly decoded and reveals nothing on
rejection. Core's list method requires a validated finite bound with no
unbounded fallback anywhere.

ekklesiaandClaude Opus 5 532ce3803b fix: preserve authorization security history
Two security records did not survive user deletion, because both hung off a
cascading foreign key to the live Better Auth user row.

Deleting a user with authorization history deleted that history. A subject with
a create and a revoke audit row had zero rows afterwards: the record of what
they had been granted, by whom, and when it was revoked disappeared at exactly
the moment it mattered most. `ekklesia_core_authorization_audit.subject_user_id`
is now a retained, non-null historical snapshot with no foreign key — a plain
identifier that may name a user row which no longer exists. No name, email, or
other profile data is copied into authorization tables. The Drizzle relation to
the user table is dropped too, because modelling a retained snapshot as a live
relation misdescribes the data. Live rows still cascade, as intended: deleting a
user removes their grants and platform-owner row, so nothing continues
authorizing a principal that no longer exists.

Platform-owner bootstrap's single use was equally fragile. "Already consumed"
meant "a row exists in ekklesia_core_platform_owner", and that table cascades
too — so deleting the bootstrapped owner's user row removed the owner row, its
audit evidence, and with them the only thing preventing the operation that
establishes a platform's first administrator from being run again. A dedicated
`ekklesia_core_platform_owner_bootstrap` singleton now carries that authority.
Its id is pinned by a check constraint to the literal 'singleton', so the
primary key makes a second row structurally impossible rather than merely
unwritten by convention; it has no user foreign key, and Core never deletes from
it. Bootstrap claims that record inside the same transaction as the owner row
and its audit entry, so consumption is tied to success: a missing target user or
any other failure rolls the sentinel back and leaves the one legitimate first
use available. The existing transaction-scoped advisory lock still serializes
concurrent first attempts to exactly one success.

The operational consequence is deliberate and permanent: deleting the last
platform owner does not reactivate bootstrap, and neither does revoking one.

Core migration 0002_authorization_integrity creates the singleton table, drops
the cascading audit-subject constraint, and backfills consumed state for any
installation that already holds a platform-owner row — active or revoked — so an
existing deployment cannot gain a fresh first use by upgrading. It records no
subject, because a backfill cannot know which of several historical owner rows
the original use targeted and guessing would fabricate history. A never-owned
installation is untouched and keeps its one first use.

One upgrade limitation is irrecoverable and is documented rather than papered
over: if an operator manually deleted the bootstrapped owner's user row before
this migration, the old cascade already erased the owner row and its audit
evidence, so nothing remains to detect. At this checkpoint no supported Better
Auth or API user-deletion path can produce that state; it requires direct
database access.

ekklesiaandClaude Opus 5 6b6b77c105 fix: enforce production transport policy
Every PostgreSQL connection this repository opened was plaintext, in every
environment: no connection site set `ssl` at all, so credentials, session
tokens, and row data crossed the network in the clear and nothing in
configuration, startup, or `pnpm doctor` said so. The public identity URL
boundary was also looser than it appeared.

`core/src/database/transport.ts` is now the one typed policy. It has exactly two
modes: `verify-full` (TLS required, certificate chain verified, and server
identity verified against the configured host — the production default) and
`disable` (the development/test default, refused outright in production). There
is deliberately no encryption-only `require` mode, no chain-only `verify-ca`,
and no `rejectUnauthorized: false` escape hatch anywhere in the configuration
surface; every loose or aliased spelling is rejected in both environments, so a
typo never quietly becomes a weaker mode. Production has no plaintext exception
at all, not even for a loopback database — a connection string cannot prove the
database is process-local.

Verification is certificate *and* hostname. The policy supplies an explicit
`checkServerIdentity` pinned to the host parsed from DATABASE_URL, because the
pinned driver sets TLS `servername` only for non-IP hosts and Node performs no
identity check when it is unset — so `rejectUnauthorized: true` alone accepts a
certificate from any host the trusted CA ever signed when connecting by IP.
Both halves are proven against a real TLS-enabled PostgreSQL, including that the
same connection without the pinned callback succeeds. Every CA, certificate, and
key is generated at test runtime and deleted afterwards.

A DATABASE_URL may no longer carry its own TLS parameters. The pinned driver
merges parsed connection-string values over explicitly passed options, so a
`?sslmode=disable` in the URL would silently replace the policy's verified `ssl`
object; that now fails with a stable code, reported by both `pnpm doctor` and
the migration CLIs rather than as "failed unexpectedly".

One shared environment reader keeps `process.env` out of Core's reusable
constructors, and every executable that opens a connection resolves the policy
identically: the API (validated before any pool, Better Auth instance, module
runtime, or listener exists), both migration commands, the bootstrap CLI, and
Doctor's own connection. Doctor reports it as a blocking failure, never a
warning, naming only the effective mode.

Separately, the identity base URL and every trusted origin must now be exactly
one canonical origin — the WHATWG origin serialization must equal the supplied
string — so a path, trailing slash, credentials, explicit default port, or
non-canonical case is rejected rather than normalized into something that no
longer matches what a browser sends. Production's loopback rejection now
classifies the address instead of comparing against three literals, covering
`.localhost`, all of 127.0.0.0/8, 0.0.0.0, `::`, expanded and IPv4-mapped
forms. This is a configuration-shape guarantee only: it does not resolve DNS or
prove reachability, and TLS protects the connection, not the exposure.

ekklesiaandClaude Opus 5 7a0f624fc3 fix: distinguish identity session failures
Principal resolution could not tell a broken session store from a genuinely
anonymous request, and did unnecessary database work for callers that never
presented a session at all. Both are corrected here.

Any cookie previously triggered the ambiguity check, so `Cookie: x=y` on an
otherwise anonymous request caused an identity database round trip an
unauthenticated caller could drive with a header they chose themselves.
`hasConfiguredSessionCookie` now parses the Cookie header per RFC 6265 (split
on `;`, name is the text before the first `=`, trimmed) and compares the whole
name exactly — never `includes`, a substring test, or an unanchored regular
expression — so `better-auth.session_token_x`, `x_better-auth.session_token`, a
differently-cased spelling, and a percent-encoded lookalike are all correctly
not the session cookie. A duplicated name still reports true: ambiguity fails
safe towards checking, and reporting true never grants access on its own.

The cookie name is not a second hard-coded copy. One `betterAuthOptions` object
now feeds both `betterAuth()` and Better Auth's own supported `getCookies`
helper, so the detected name — including the `__Secure-` prefix an https baseURL
implies — is derived from the exact configuration Better Auth itself uses, and
drift is structurally impossible rather than merely tested.

The readiness check itself proved almost nothing: `select 1` still succeeded
against a dropped session table, a drifted or removed column, or a revoked
SELECT privilege, so Better Auth's ambiguous null was reported as a genuinely
anonymous request. `probeSessionStore` now plans a real read of the session
relation and the exact columns the adapter depends on, under `where false`:
PostgreSQL resolves the relation, every column, and the caller's privilege at
plan time while matching zero rows, so no session row, token, or user id can be
read, logged, or enumerated by the check. It uses the injected pool, never a
second connection, and stays bounded by the existing timeout.

A missing relation, dropped column, revoked privilege, unreachable connection,
and query timeout now all produce the same sanitized 503 with no relation name,
column name, SQL, driver text, host, or stack — proven against real PostgreSQL,
since that is the only place a broken store looks exactly like an anonymous
request.

ekklesiaandClaude Opus 5 3d6c85b0f8 fix: observe request timeout failures
The sanitized operational line promised for a header/request timeout was
never actually emitted. Driving a real slow-header and slow-body connection
through a real socket against the pinned Node 24 runtime shows the general
server 'timeout' event never fires for headersTimeout/requestTimeout — that
event belongs to server.setTimeout()'s idle-socket timer, which this server
never arms. Both surface as 'clientError' carrying
err.code === "ERR_HTTP_REQUEST_TIMEOUT".

bindServer now observes 'clientError'. Because registering any such listener
suppresses Node's own default response entirely, the handler reproduces that
default byte-for-byte — 408 for a timeout, 431 for a header overflow, 400
otherwise — writing it only when the socket is still writable and no response
has already begun, then destroying the socket exactly as Node would. Exactly
one fixed sanitized line is logged per event, never the caught error's own
message, which for a parse failure derives from attacker-controlled input.

Proof moves to the real transport boundary: raw-socket scenarios assert the
exact response bytes, exactly one status line, socket closure, handler
non-invocation, and exactly one sanitized log for a slow-header connection, a
slow-body connection, a malformed request line, and an oversized header block.
The prior unit test, which manually emitted 'timeout', is removed as
misleading.

ekklesiaandClaude Opus 5 1161f5a076 fix: fail closed on production signup
Production configuration accepted publicSignupEnabled: true and started a
working Identity/API runtime, even though Ekklesia has no verified email,
invitation requirement, CAPTCHA, or durable shared/edge limiter — Doctor
merely reported "Public signup is explicitly ENABLED" as a pass.

validatePublicSignupEnabled now takes the same IdentityEnvironment the rest
of this config validates against and throws the stable
PUBLIC_SIGNUP_UNSUPPORTED_IN_PRODUCTION whenever the parsed value is true in
production. Parsing stays separate from the policy, so a malformed value
still reports PUBLIC_SIGNUP_ENABLED_INVALID everywhere. Because the
executable entry point validates configuration before startApi, such a
deployment fails before any pool, Better Auth instance, module runtime, or
listener exists, and Doctor reports NOT READY via its existing
IdentityConfigError path. Development and test composition still enable it
explicitly through the identical typed path.

Add a single platform-owned request-body policy (hono/body-limit) with
small, named limits for Better Auth and Core's grant-mutation endpoint, and
a new required maxBodyBytes field on the executable module route contract so
every module route makes a conscious no-body-or-bounded-body choice, capped
at a platform ceiling. Every oversized request gets one sanitized 413
contract and never reaches business logic, authorization, or a handler.
Also configure finite Node header/request/keep-alive timeouts, including the
non-obvious connectionsCheckingInterval needed for them to take effect
promptly, so a slow-header or slow-body connection cannot hold a socket
indefinitely.
