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.

ekklesiaandClaude Opus 5 7ff063b87a feat: deliver module objects directly to browsers through opaque read URLs
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.

ekklesiaandClaude Opus 5 b9ca0d560d feat: add host-provided module object storage
CI / verify (pull_request) Successful in 36s
CI / infrastructure-smoke (pull_request) Successful in 13s
CI / migration-smoke (pull_request) Failing after 2m20s
`manifest.storage.buckets` has existed since manifest version 1 and meant
nothing — discovery validated it and no code read it. This turns it into a
real capability, which is what stands between Announcements and the module
system: that product currently fetches a hardcoded LAN S3 endpoint, parses
ListObjectsV2 XML by hand, and hands the browser direct object URLs.

- 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.

ekklesiaandClaude Opus 5 baa689b2a7 feat: add the module configuration and secrets contract
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.

ekklesiaandClaude Opus 5 7729c99e24 feat: add the minimal operational module lifecycle
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 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.

ekklesiaandClaude Opus 5 cda841f8c7 test: gate the graceful drain proof on handler entry
The Pass 4 drain test waited for `server.getConnections() > 0` before starting
shutdown, and a comment described that as the request having "demonstrably
entered". It had not: the connection count proves the server accepted a TCP
connection, nothing about whether Hono had dispatched to a handler. Run five
times against the real integration harness it was not flaky, but the claim was
stronger than the evidence, so the evidence is now stronger instead.

A fixture module's route handler announces entry through a `globalThis` gate —
the same channel the existing lifecycle recorders use — and then blocks until the
test releases it. Shutdown therefore begins at a point where the handler is
provably inside user code. The assertions are now about recorded ordering rather
than timing: the handler finished, the module stopped, and `handler-finished`
precedes `stop` in the recorded events, with the full 200 response and a clean
transport close. No sleeps; the gate is released in `finally` so a failed
assertion cannot hang the suite.

ekklesiaandClaude Opus 5 74e8840f0d test: prove bounded API cleanup
Pass 4 bounded module hooks and the HTTP drain, and Core proves an individual
hook deadline in isolation — but nothing under apps/api ever supplied
moduleHookTimeoutMsOverride, so the composition's actual promise ("the pool
always closes, whatever a hook does") was untested at the level where it either
holds or breaks.

Four deterministic proofs, no production change:

A never-settling startup rollback now proves startApi rejects with
MODULE_START_FAILED followed by MODULE_ROLLBACK_TIMEOUT, that the failing
module's own stop hook was attempted first and the earlier module still received
its rollback afterwards, that the one pool closed exactly once, and that no
listener was ever bound.

A never-settling normal stop proves shutdown rejects with MODULE_STOP_TIMEOUT
metadata, the earlier module still got its stop attempt, the pool closed, and
repeated and concurrent callers share the one memoized result without
re-entering a single hook.

A combined failure proves both deadlines report together: a server whose close
callback never fires plus a never-settling stop yields drainTimedOut and
moduleStopFailed on one ApiShutdownError, the platform force-closed through
Node's public closeIdleConnections/closeAllConnections, module stop still ran,
the pool still closed, and nothing about the request, socket, connection,
credentials, SQL, or module exception appears in the error.

The graceful ordering test was strengthened rather than left racing an
unresolved fetch: a raw socket sends a complete request with Connection: close,
shutdown begins only once the server provably holds that connection — observed
by polling the server's own connection count, never by sleeping — and the
already-entered request is then proven to complete with a full 200 response and
a clean transport close instead of being force-closed.

The fixture gains one test-only option for a stop hook that never settles.

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 800ecfdb92 fix: reject ambiguous module routes
A module can register both `GET /events/:id` and `GET /events/new`. Driven
through the pinned router, `/events/new` reached the parameter handler under
`demo.events.read` when the parameter route registered first, and the static
handler under `demo.events.create` when it registered second. Nothing rejected
the pair, so declaration order decided which permission guarded the path. That
is a permission policy, not a routing preference, and it must not be inferred
from array position.

Two routes of one module now overlap when they share a method and a segment
count and, at every position, either both segments are the same static literal
or at least one is a parameter. Under this grammar — static literals or `:name`
parameters, no wildcard, regex, optional, or catch-all — that is exactly "some
concrete request path matches both". `moduleRoutesOverlap` implements it in the
contracts package, where path semantics already live and Hono cannot reach.

Core checks it during staged registration, after the existing duplicate check,
so identical shapes (including paths differing only in parameter name) keep
returning MODULE_ROUTE_DUPLICATE and a genuine intersection returns the new
MODULE_ROUTE_OVERLAP. The rejected module publishes none of its staged routes or
capabilities, no start hook runs, and no listener binds. Rejection rather than a
specificity rule: ranking static above parameter would still silently pick which
permission applies. Disjoint routes keep their order; different methods,
different segment counts, and the same local path in two different modules
(each has its own platform-owned mount prefix) all remain legal.

The same requests also pinned down what handlers actually receive. Route
declarations are validated; route *parameters* are not, and the two are
unrelated. A single encoded segment arrives decoded as `/../admin`, `a\b`, an
embedded NUL, CR/LF, `1; drop`, or non-ASCII text — none of which any declared
path could contain. The contract now says so explicitly: decoded values are
untrusted, module-owned input that a handler must validate against its own exact
domain grammar before any database, filesystem, command, or identifier use, and
re-encoding is not a substitute. No generic validator, path-normalization layer,
or route field was added, because module parameters are module-owned domain
types and one platform-wide pattern would either reject legitimate values or
approve meaningless ones.

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.

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.

mode requires a header name, a concrete trusted-proxy list, and only honors a
forwarded chain from an actual trusted peer. This closes a rate-limit bypass
where rotating a spoofed header let a caller choose a fresh bucket on every
request. Public sign-up is also disabled by default and requires an explicit
typed opt-in, using Better Auth's own disableSignUp gate so no email-existence

ekklesiaandClaude Sonnet 5 300f98c29d fix: normalize final CORS Vary headers
CI / verify (pull_request) Successful in 26s
CI / infrastructure-smoke (pull_request) Successful in 20s
CI / migration-smoke (pull_request) Successful in 27s
Found during a targeted post-audit review: sanitizeModuleResponse's Vary fix
(bf76f4e) canonicalized the module response's own Vary before Hono's own
cors() middleware (apps/api/src/app.ts) ran, but cors() unconditionally
appends its own "Vary: Origin" afterward, outside module-http-routes.ts's
reach. The wire-level response app.fetch actually returns could therefore
still read "*, Origin" for a module handler that sets Vary: *, or carry a
case-different duplicate Origin token — reproduced first via a new app-level
regression test hitting the final response, not sanitizeModuleResponse in
isolation.

Fixed by wrapping the shared corsMiddleware in withCanonicalVary
(apps/api/src/app.ts), which re-canonicalizes whatever Vary cors() leaves
behind only after it has fully finished, handling both the normal
next()-driven path (via c.header(), since reassigning c.res triggers Hono's
own header-preserving merge and would silently undo the fix) and the
OPTIONS-preflight path (cors() returns a Response directly without touching
c.res). Neither path reads or clones the response body.

Refactored module-http-routes.ts's Vary logic into one shared parsing/dedup
primitive with two policy-specific callers: mergedVaryHeader (module
responses; always forces canonical Origin/Cookie, unchanged behavior) and
the new canonicalizeVaryHeader (the app-level CORS boundary; only
deduplicates and collapses "*", never injects a token that was not already
present — an OPTIONS preflight has no Cookie/personalization concept to
force). This also incidentally fixes the same pre-existing Origin
duplication on /api/v1/principal (present since Phase 4B, flagged as a
remaining concern in the prior pass), since it wraps the one shared
middleware every /api/v1/* and /api/auth/* response already passes through.

ADR 0015 required no changes: its Vary/CORS ownership statements are
architectural, not tied to a specific function, and remain accurate.

ekklesiaandClaude Sonnet 5 bf76f4e006 fix: collapse invalid Vary * combination and case-duplicate tokens
Found during the Phase 5B pass-3 architectural audit: sanitizeModuleResponse's
Vary merge used a plain Set, so an existing "Vary: *" from a module handler
became "*, Origin, Cookie" (RFC 9110 §12.5.5 forbids combining "*" with any
other value), and a differently-cased existing token (e.g. "origin") produced
a redundant duplicate alongside the forced "Origin"/"Cookie". mergedVaryHeader
now de-duplicates case-insensitively, always emits canonical Origin/Cookie
casing, and collapses to a bare "*" whenever one is present, per focused unit
tests. The full app's own pre-existing cors() middleware (apps/api/src/app.ts,
unchanged here, present since Phase 4B on every /api/v1/* route including
/api/v1/principal) still unconditionally appends its own "Vary: Origin"
outside this module's control — noted in the new tests, not addressed by this
narrow fix.

or returns a non-Response becomes a fixed, sanitized
500 MODULE_HANDLER_FAILED. Module-supplied CORS headers are stripped
and every module response is forced to Cache-Control: no-store with
Vary: Origin, Cookie. RunningApi shutdown now stops the module runtime
between draining the HTTP server and closing the shared pool, and
every startup failure path stops the runtime and/or closes the pool
before propagating, without masking the original failure.

ekklesia 9fa051be61 docs: record module authorization architecture
Adds ADR 0014 recording the durable architecture Phase 5A established
across both passes: the shared contracts-layer PermissionDeclaration,
manifest version 3 replacing version 2's bare permission strings, the
reserved core.* namespace and the structural guarantee that a
module-vs-Core collision always surfaces as
ModulePermissionCompositionError rather than the generic
PermissionRegistryError duplicate path, deterministic registry
composition, startup ordering, repository-root/package-version
resolution, registry injection into apps/api's enforcement and
explicit-grant HTTP API, the static-snapshot/historical-record
preservation guarantees, and Doctor/modules:validate integration.
Indexes it in the ADR README, cross-references it from ADR 0006 (only
its manifestVersion 2 / permission-string decision is superseded; the
rest of ADR 0006 remains accepted, and its historical text is left
untouched) and ADR 0013 (module permission registration, deferred
there, is what ADR 0014 implements), and links it from the relevant
development documentation.

Corrects two comments discovered during a direct source audit that
overstated where a module-vs-Core permission collision is actually
caught (core/src/modules/permissions.ts,
apps/api/src/platform-permissions.ts) — comment-only, no behavior
change, already covered by existing tests. Also corrects a
documentation claim in docs/development/authorization.md that
incorrectly implied removing a module blocks explicit revocation of
its historical grants; grants-routes.ts's revoke handler never
consults the permission registry, so revocation remains unaffected.

ekklesia edd7148aa8 feat: integrate module authorization
Wires composePlatformPermissionRegistry into apps/api's production
startup: startApi() discovers every installed module, composes the one
immutable platform permission registry (Core's own declarations plus
every module's), and only then constructs the shared PostgreSQL pool,
Better Auth, and the HTTP server. A discovery or composition failure —
an invalid manifest, a reserved core.* namespace claim, or a duplicate
declaration — propagates before anything exists to close; there is no
Core-only registry fallback. apps/api/src/platform-permissions.ts
resolves the repository root from its own file location, never
process.cwd(), so package-scoped test runs discover the right modules/
directory.

createApiApp/createGrantsRoutes now require the composed registry as
an injected authorization option, replacing the previous hard-coded
CORE_PERMISSION_REGISTRY; requirePermission continues to work
identically for Core-owned and module-owned permissions, since it has
no concept of the distinction.

Extends pnpm doctor with a modules.permissions check (reusing the
already-discovered module list, distinguishing reserved-namespace from
generic-duplicate failures, never re-discovering modules) and pnpm
modules:validate to compose the same registry before a module is
considered installable.

Adds focused coverage: startup-ordering and failure-isolation tests in
apps/api/tests/lifecycle.test.ts, module-owned-declaration enforcement
tests in apps/api/tests/authorization-middleware.test.ts, Doctor
composition tests in core/tests/doctor.test.ts, and a live PostgreSQL
end-to-end scenario proving a real installed module's permission is
discoverable, grantable, and deniable once the module is absent again
after a restart, without ever executing its server entrypoint.

ekklesia df2af0a3e0 fix: enforce registered authorization permissions
CI / verify (pull_request) Successful in 25s
CI / infrastructure-smoke (pull_request) Successful in 11s
CI / migration-smoke (pull_request) Successful in 27s
Two related fail-closed gaps let a well-formed but never-declared
permission id slip through:

- POST /api/v1/grants created explicit grants for any well-formed
  PermissionId without checking the injected permission registry,
  allowing dormant grants for invented identifiers that could become
  effective the moment those identifiers were registered later.
- createAuthorizationEvaluator validated the permission id only inside
  the restricted-baseline branch, so a malformed permission combined
  with the public or authenticated baseline could still return allowed.

Both now fail closed: the grants route checks the target permission
against the trusted registry before calling store.createGrant (sanitized
403, no store or audit write), and the evaluator validates permission
shape before any baseline is allowed to return an allowed decision,
without adding a registry dependency to the evaluator itself.

The live integration lifecycle test switched from an unregistered
calendar.events.read to the registered core.authorization.grants.manage
permission, since module permission registration does not exist yet.

ekklesia 1363608552 feat: add authorization bootstrap and HTTP enforcement
Wires Core's identity and authorization domains into apps/api over one
shared, validated PostgreSQL pool; adds an explicit, single-use,
concurrency-safe platform-owner bootstrap CLI; adds a smallest-possible
immutable permission registry with one Core-owned restricted permission
(core.authorization.grants.manage); and adds reusable Hono authorization
enforcement plus a narrowly scoped /api/v1/grants HTTP API for managing
explicit grants only, gated by an exact trusted Origin on every mutation.
