jaap-jan 6728a0a597 Let the desktop client replace itself, and give the repository one version
Packaging for Windows, and the updater that only exists once something is
packaged. Velopack, win-x64, fed from the project's own forge — never from the
deployment a client signs in to, which is ADR 0011 rule 2 carried over
unchanged and is why the feed address is a constant in the code rather than a
setting. See docs/adr/0012-desktop-distribution-and-updates.md.

**Nothing is ever installed while somebody is using it.** A newer build is found
on a six-hourly pass, downloaded in the background, and then waits — for a
restart the user presses, or for the next launch they were going to do anyway.
That is a policy rather than caution: this application argues at length that
locking keeps shells running, because a lock that destroyed work would stop
being used, and a restart does not keep them. Having taught that, it owes the
user the choice at the one moment it stops being true, and the sentence saying
so counts the shells it would close.

**The version is now derived from the v* tag**, by MinVer, for everything. There
was no version before this — no property anywhere, so every assembly reported
the SDK's 1.0.0 and the API served that string as its serverVersion to every
client that asked. The tag was already the version of record for the container
image; this makes it the version of record full stop. MinVer's failure mode is
answering plausibly rather than failing, and here a wrong version is a client
that never updates, so it is guarded twice: fetch-depth 0 on every checkout, and
a step that fails a tag build when the tag and the computed version disagree.

**The pack id is DodoSSH.Desktop and not DodoSSH**, which is the one decision
here that would have destroyed data. Velopack installs to %LOCALAPPDATA%\<packId>
and removes that whole directory on uninstall, and %LOCALAPPDATA%\DodoSSH is
where ClientPaths keeps the encrypted cache, the outbox of changes not yet
pushed, and the device key. The obvious id would have had the uninstaller
silently delete work the server has never seen — the thing the application
refuses to do without a counted confirmation. Velopack's own advice to move user
data to roaming %APPDATA% is declined for the reason ClientPaths already gives.

**Releases are cut by a person, and CI gains no job that could.** The tempting
argument is that a forge write token is not a signing key. It does not survive
contact with what the token does: Velopack clients trust their feed and do not
verify a package signature when they apply one, so whoever can write a release
can ship an update every install runs. That is the capability ADR 0011 rule 1
puts on a machine which is not a runner, reached through a different door. The
mechanical objection — vpk needs Windows and the runners are Linux — is the
smaller of the two and is recorded beside it, because somebody will fix one and
believe they are done.

Unsigned for now, deliberately and with the cost stated where a user reads it:
SmartScreen warns once per person, on Setup.exe, because Mark-of-the-Web is
applied by the browser that downloaded it. In-app updates are fetched by the
application and applied from a local file, and never trip it.

The banner is a fourth row of the window rather than an overlay. Anything drawn
in the terminal's rectangle is sliced by the native child window that composites
above it — the defect this window has shipped once — and a sibling row is the
arrangement TitleBar and StatusBar already prove works.

----

Three defects surfaced on the way, none of them in the feature being built.

**A settings key absent from the file came back as the CLR default, not the
declared one.** The JSON source generator builds a record through a synthesised
parameterised constructor and assigns every property from its argument array, so
a property initializer runs and is then overwritten by a default for anything the
file did not contain. A settings.json of {} read back a font size of 0, clamped
up to the 8px floor rather than the 13px the renderer draws at. It could not bite
while there was one setting, because that setting was written on every save and
so was never absent; adding a second would have turned automatic update checks
off for every existing profile, silently, the opposite of the documented default.
Reflection-based deserialisation of the same JSON answers correctly, which is why
every way of checking it by hand agrees except the one that ships. The defaults
now live on the constructor parameters, which is the only place the generator
reads them from.

**Declaring a RuntimeIdentifier on the desktop head broke the server's image
build.** It is the obvious way to let a self-contained publish restore under
locked mode, and it writes a net10.0/win-x64 target into the lock file of every
project the head references transitively — including DodoSSH.Contracts and
DodoSSH.Crypto, which the API builds too. The Dockerfile restores those with no
RID and fails NU1004. Found by running docker build rather than by reading. The
RID stays out of the committed state; the two commands that need one ask for it
unlocked, and the release script puts the lock files back.

**A Docker ARG named VERSION silently sets MSBuild's Version.** An ARG is an
environment variable for the rest of the stage, MSBuild reads environment
variables as properties, and property names are case-insensitive. With the
workflow passing main-<short sha> on a main build the publish died with
NETSDK1018 pointing at DodoSSH.Contracts, a project nobody had touched. The build
stage's argument is ASSEMBLY_VERSION now, empty except on a tag build.

All three are in docs/platform-flags.md, which is where the next person will look.

----

Verified: the whole solution builds and restores locked; 289 shell, 93 layout and
54 session tests pass, including the regression test for the settings defect and
a measurement of the banner at the window's minimum width. vpk pack runs end to
end and reports "Verified VelopackApp.Run()" against Program.Main. The API image
builds correctly both as a main build and as a tag build, carrying 1.0.0 and
0.1.0 respectively.

Not verified, and it needs a published release to be: installing, updating and
uninstalling on a real machine. That is Phase 15 of docs/manual-checks.md, and
the pack id and the WebView2 profile fix are reasoned and commented but only
proved by walking it. Two things to watch at the first upload — the reverse
proxy's body-size limit for a 64 MB asset, and whether vpk upload gitea is happy
with Gitea 1.27.1.

jaap-jan d07b336868 Free the terminal from the Hosts screen, and fill the room it left
The WebView sat inside the Hosts grid, so navigating to Files or the keychain
hid every open terminal and the strip that named them. A connection you had
opened was invisible from four of the five screens. The window now has two
surfaces rather than one: a nav rail that says which page you are on, and a
terminal strip that is always there and switches the whole content area to a
shell. Screen keeps meaning "which page" and never becomes a sixth kind of
page, which is why this is two properties instead of one enum with a terminal
member in it.

Every screen lives inside one wrapper panel that collapses when a terminal is
showing. That is not tidiness — the WebView hosts a Win32 child window that
composites above everything Avalonia draws, so a screen left visible over its
rectangle is a screen sliced in half, and this window has shipped that defect
once already. One decision point, IsTerminalShowing, and a nested panel rather
than five compound bindings nobody would remember to extend.

The focus choreography is the part no test in this repo can see. Every reveal
path now focuses in the same turn the WebView appeared, so all three of them
post at DispatcherPriority.Loaded and let the native control re-push its bounds
first. Going the other way had a real bug: the screen-changed branch called a
bare Focus() where it had to release the keyboard from the native child, so
switching from a terminal to Files silently ate the first keystrokes. Rare
before this commit and the primary gesture after it.

The tab strip grew a cross inside each tab, a plus that opens the quick-connect
palette, and middle-click close. Nested buttons are correct here: Avalonia
handles a left press on the cross and deliberately does not handle other
buttons, which is exactly what lets middle-click bubble up from the cross as
well as the tab. The test is PointerUpdateKind rather than
IsMiddleButtonPressed, because the latter reports button state and is also true
for a left press made while the middle button happens to be held. The handler
is on the tab and not the strip, so the background closes nothing by
construction. Plus opens the palette rather than a flyout, since a menu
dropping into the WebView's rectangle may or may not composite above a child
HWND and this repo does not make rendering claims it has not photographed.

Everything a user reads now says keychain. The wire, the database and the
cryptographic spec still say vault, deliberately: renaming those is a migration
and a protocol change for a word. That split is written down rather than left
to be rediscovered as an inconsistency.

Four things that were squeezed into the keychain's category rail, or into
nothing at all, now have screens. Pinned host keys get one, with fingerprints
never truncated and a filter that matches them, because comparing what you have
against what the operator published is the whole workflow; the approved date is
read out of the item's UUIDv7 rather than added as a column, and says so, since
it means first approval and not last use. Keys can be generated in the client,
which needed the openssh-key-v1 container written by hand — there is no BCL or
NSec helper, and the PKCS#8 route is unverified in the SSH library this uses.
The armour carries no passphrase: encrypting it needs bcrypt_pbkdf, which is
Blowfish with a swizzle, in a project whose crypto is otherwise entirely
libsodium, for a protection the key's own remarks argue is redundant inside a
vault. Generation fills the existing editor and stops, so SAVE stays the one
thing that writes. ~/.ssh/config can be imported behind a preview that is
ticked per row and writes nothing until the button; IdentityFile records the
path and imports the key material only on an explicit opt-in, because reading
somebody's private key into a vault is precisely the act this product exists to
make deliberate. Match blocks and ProxyJump are reported rather than obeyed —
one cannot be evaluated statically and the other has nothing behind it to route
with, and a preview that implied otherwise would be worse than one that admits
it.

Files can be dragged in all four directions that are honestly available. Remote
to Explorer does not ship and is not pretended to: the shell wants the bytes
during the drop, which needs a virtual file and a native COM data object,
outside what Avalonia offers. Note for the next person that Avalonia 12
replaced the drag model outright — DataObject and DataFormats are no-op stubs
and IDataObject is not in the reference assembly, so every tutorial written for
11 does not compile here.

Hosts can be grouped, flat and never nested. A parent id merged as a scalar
lets two offline clients each re-parent A under B and B under A, producing a
cycle inside an encrypted payload that no server can police and every reader
would have to detect for ever. Membership lives in that payload rather than in
the one plaintext concession ADR 0001 allows, whose test is that the relay
cannot function without it — nothing on the server reads a group, so what
plaintext would hand over is a clustering of the estate for nothing. The
plaintext column reserved for it is dropped, provably always null, and the
server now refuses a client that sends one; it was never populated, was copied
on apply, and was not cleared on delete, so a group id would have outlived the
host it described.

Snippets insert through xterm rather than through the pump, because xterm is
the only thing that knows whether the remote has bracketed paste on, and that
is what makes a shell treat embedded newlines as text instead of as execute.
The host process moves opaque bytes and never parses output, so it would have
to guess, and guessing wrong runs every line. Running is off by default and the
copy says the text goes into whatever is there — the terminal has no notion of
being at a prompt, and may be in vi or at a password prompt with echo off, so
the Enter the user presses themselves is the entire safety property.

Connections and keychain changes are recorded as synced encrypted items, which
is what makes them auditable by a team later and costs the server knowledge of
connection rate and timing from row counts alone. ADR 0001 already concedes it
cannot hide that class of metadata; the trade is now written into it rather
than left implicit. A connection entry is written once, at close, which is what
makes a synced log tractable: nothing to merge, one outbox row, no chance of
colliding with itself. Live sessions come from memory, not from the log. The
write is void by contract and posts to a bounded channel, because putting an
encrypt-and-write on the teardown path of every session is how closing the
application comes to take four seconds. A ticket opened before a lock still
closes afterwards, since a shell outlives the vault. The activity log hooks the
one generic repository every kind writes through, so it cannot miss a caller —
which is also why the log kinds themselves declare they are not audited, or the
first entry would write an entry about writing an entry. It records the names
of the fields that changed and never their values; a log with an old password
in it would be a plaintext credential store with no vault around it. Retention
is 90 days or 5,000 entries, whichever bites first, pruned on the sync loop
rather than on a second timer.

That log traffic then broke the status line, which is worth recording because
the fix is a shape and not a patch: background sync counted its own log rows as
pushed items, so the quiet rule stopped being quiet and every action's message
was overwritten a second later by a sync report. The report now separates log
rows from user items and the rule reads the latter.

S3 buckets appear as a remote in the file browser, behind the same interface an
SFTP session implements, so the queue and both panes did not have to learn what
they are talking to. Uploads go through a pipe, because the queue wants to
write and the SDK wants to read; memory is then bounded by the part size
instead of buffering a file to disk twice.

Finally, the Windows device key store moved out of the session project, which
was the one thing keeping it from being portable — everything else in it is
platform-neutral, and a Windows CNG dependency in the middle of the vault code
meant a second head could not reference it without dragging Windows along. The
seam that made the move free was already there. docs/android-port.md is the
audit behind that: what ports, what does not, in order of cost, the four
decisions taken, and an inventory of every screen and state the interface has
to carry, written so a design can be made from it directly.

dotnet build, dotnet test and dotnet format --verify-no-changes are all clean:
1240 tests at zero warnings, including the end-to-end suite against real
containers. The manual checks that headless Avalonia cannot make — the drag
from Explorer, a generated key against a real host, twelve tabs at the minimum
window width — are listed in docs/manual-checks.md and are still outstanding.

jaap-jan 7016ce36f1 Key the local cache to the identity, not to the door it was opened through
Groundwork for a device key, and a spec change rather than a feature. ADR 0007
records the decision it clears the way for: a Windows Hello gesture guarding a
protected blob, with the passphrase kept as a permanent fallback.

The reason that decision needed this first is that a device key cannot open a
session on its own. SessionOpener derived two things from the passphrase master
key — the bundle, and the local cache key — and a device wrap is
SealTo(device_x25519_pk), which yields the bundle and never computes a master key
at all. A device unlock could therefore have opened the identity and still not
read the cache it had itself written.

So LocalCacheKey now derives from the bundle: dsh1/localcache/v1 → v2, specified
in crypto.md §3.2. Every wrap that opens a vault ends up holding the bundle, so
every door reaches the same cache.

Extract-and-expand, not expand alone. Everything derived from the master key uses
HKDF-Expand directly, which is sound because an Argon2id output is uniformly
random over its whole length. The bundle's encoding is not — it opens with a
fixed 14-byte label and carries a version, a generation and a timestamp before
reaching any key material — so it needs the extract step to become a pseudorandom
key first.

Two consequences fell out, both improvements and neither the point:

- A passphrase change no longer discards the local cache. The bundle is unchanged
  by a re-wrap, so the cache key is too. Under v1 changing a passphrase silently
  orphaned every cached row and the next launch re-pulled the whole vault.
- Recovery-code unlock is fixed before it ships. It derives a different master key
  from a different secret and a different salt, so under v1 it would have had the
  same defect as the device path, and nobody would have noticed until it landed.

The cache becomes unreadable exactly when the identity is rotated, which is the
correct moment to discard it. Existing caches are discarded and re-pulled on
upgrade — already the specified behaviour for a stale cache, and the reason the
label is versioned rather than reused: a v1 cache must fail to open rather than
decrypt to nonsense.

One stated guarantee got weaker and now says so. crypto.md §10 claimed locking
meant "nothing on disk can be read again without the passphrase." Where a device
wrap exists that is no longer true, and it would have been untrue under either
candidate design — the alternative was storing a copy of the cache key in the
device blob, which is the same door with an extra key lying next to it. The
wording now points at ADR 0007, because what guards the device key is a platform
decision and not a property of this specification.

A golden vector was quietly lying, which is the part worth reading twice. The
"local-cache" entry pinned HKDF-SHA512-Expand over a fixed PRK — a construction
the cache key no longer uses. Regenerating it would have produced a green suite
describing a derivation this code does not perform. It is replaced by a vector
over a bundle whose every byte is pinned: the label, version 1, generation 1, a
fixed timestamp and two recognisable key scalars, all visible in the fixture so a
second implementation can check itself against it. UserSecretBundle.TryDecode is
internal for this, because Create draws fresh randomness and so can never produce
a reproducible input.

Mutation tested, and this one earns its keep: dropping the extract step now fails
CommittedVectors_MatchCurrentImplementation. The vector it replaced could not
have caught that, because it never touched the bundle at all.

One test became false and says so. ARecordSealedUnderAnotherPassphrase is now
ARecordSealedByAnotherIdentity: a different passphrase deliberately no longer
changes the cache key, and TheLocalCacheKey_SurvivesAPassphraseChange pins that.
What must still be unreadable is another user's cache. CacheHarness therefore
generates an identity rather than deriving from a passphrase, and has no
passphrase parameter left — the cache key is not a question about passphrases any
more.

SyncHarness's two simulated machines now derive the same cache key, which is what
keying on the bundle means: they are the same user holding the same identity. They
still have separate cache databases, so nothing is shared between them but the key
that would open either. Both harnesses lost a MasterKey field that existed only to
make a protector.

858 tests green. Zero warnings, dotnet format clean.

Not done: the device key itself. Three pieces remain, and the middle one was a
discovery rather than a plan — EnrollmentService.AddDevice runs only during
enrollment, so every already-enrolled account, which is all of them, needs an
endpoint to add a device wrap while unlocked. The client proves possession by
producing the wrap, so that shape falls out of the crypto. After that: the
protector seam with the wrap cached locally for offline unlock, then the Hello
implementation and the unlock-screen UI, which is where the Windows TFM lands and
where automated testing stops.

jaap-jan 8d2416a602 Add the encrypted local cache and the sync client
Three new client projects, and the wire-contract fix they needed.

DodoSSH.Client.Domain holds the decrypted item model and the three-way
merge, with no I/O at all — so the suite that decides whether a
credential can be lost runs in milliseconds with nothing to mock.
Scalars defer to the server on a genuine clash so every replica resolves
the same triple identically and two clients cannot ping-pong; directives
merge per name so two people each adding one both keep theirs; the jump
chain merges as a whole value because its order is the route. Whatever
loses is returned rather than dropped.

DodoSSH.Client.Storage is EF Core on SQLite, no SQLCipher: the rows are
already ciphertext, so an encrypted file would protect protected bytes
at the cost of a native dependency. It keeps the server's state and the
outbox in separate tables, which is what preserves the common ancestor a
merge needs. One pending operation per item, enforced by a unique index.

DodoSSH.Client.Sync is the pull/apply/push loop. Pulling never decrypts
— a change with no local work pending is plumbed as ciphertext — so a
first sync of thousands of items does not run twice as many AEAD
operations for nothing.

Contracts: EncryptedPayload gains WrappedDataKey and DataKeyId. The
specification has required a per-item data key since crypto.md §3, the
columns have existed since the first migration and DshAad.ItemPayload
binds the id, but this record had nowhere to put either — so a
spec-compliant item could not be transmitted at all. Found by writing
the client that has to produce one. Also closes a hole in
AadResourceType, which had no value for the HostTag and HostCredential
that SyncEntityType has always listed.

Four bugs the tests found, not review:

- SQLite refuses to order or compare its own DateTimeOffset mapping, and
  throws at execution rather than model build. Collecting tombstones and
  listing conflicts are both that shape, so this was a crash waiting for
  the first user with a deleted host. Timestamps are integers now, by
  convention so a later field cannot be the one left unconverted.
- SQLitePCLRaw 2.1.11, which EF resolves, is covered by
  GHSA-2m69-gcr7-jv3q. Pinned forward as a family.
- Resurrecting content from a remote deletion cleared the original
  before queueing the copy. Two transactions, so a crash between them
  lost the work; reversed, and the rescued id is derived from the
  tombstone so a replay coalesces instead of duplicating.
- Several equality assertions went through Shouldly's ShouldBe, which
  compares IEnumerable element-wise and so tested nothing about the
  Equals these types exist to provide. Corrected; the falsification that
  caught it went from 2 failures to 6.

The push response's cursor is deliberately ignored. It sits after this
client's own writes, so adopting it skips anything another client
committed at a lower sequence in the window between a pull and a push —
permanently. Re-reading one's own writes is idempotent and costs a page.
The Contracts doc that invited the shortcut now says so.

593 tests, up from 448. The delete-versus-edit rules, the ancestor
retention, the fresh operation id on coalesce and the cursor safeguard
were each verified by breaking them and watching the right test fail.
2026-07-29 10:27:37 +02:00
jaap-jan a878c2b6bb Add the server client and client-side enrollment
A typed client over DodoSSH.Contracts, and the orchestration that turns a
passphrase into an enrolled identity: generate keys, have the identity
provider sign over them, wrap the bundle three ways, create the personal
vault, publish.

Ordering here is forced, not chosen. The secret bundle's AAD binds to the
server-assigned user id, so /me has to be read before anything can be
wrapped -- which is exactly why /me provisions the account and returns its id
even while reporting that enrollment is required. That constraint was
designed into the server earlier; this is the first code that depends on it.

The grant tuple now has a real canonical encoding (crypto.md 7.3) rather
than the placeholder signature I would otherwise have had to invent and then
keep. §7 named the tuple without specifying how to encode it; this fills that
in with the same conventions as 7.1, and the self-grant at enrollment is
already in its final format. The signature covers SHA-256(wrappedKey) rather
than the key, so a verifier can check attribution without holding the vault
key at all.

The most valuable tests are the negative ones about the request body: the
server is meant to be unable to read what it stores, and a refactor that put
a passphrase or a private key into the enrollment request would be invisible
to every other test in the repository. So one asserts the body contains
neither the passphrase, the recovery code, nor any private key in base64 or
hex. Another opens the same bundle three ways -- passphrase, recovery code and
device key -- which is what makes a passphrase change a one-row update.

ClientEnrollment depends on IKeyBindingAuthorizer rather than the whole
OidcClient. It needs exactly one capability, and depending on the full client
would drag discovery and token exchange into every test of key binding.

Two things fixed while building it. The recovery code buffer was sized one
separator short, so every enrollment threw IndexOutOfRange -- caught
immediately because nine of ten tests failed identically. And the crypto
enum collided with Domain.GrantKind in the server, so it is GrantPurpose
there; the numeric values still have to match, which the doc and a test both
say.

448 tests pass, zero warnings on a clean rebuild, format clean.

jaap-jan e65d738912 Add the client key hierarchy: bundle, master key, vault and item keys
Everything crypto.md section 3 describes below the identity key, which is
what the desktop client needs before it can enroll or store anything.

DshAad gives every descriptor in the specification a named constructor. The
AAD binding is the most valuable structural property in the design -- it is
what stops a server holding every ciphertext from pasting one row's bytes
onto another, rolling a row back to a superseded generation, or replaying a
revoked grant -- and all of it depends on callers getting purpose, resource
type and ids right at every single call site. Hand-constructing descriptors
makes that a matter of care; picking a method name makes it a matter of
spelling.

UserSecretBundle holds private keys in libsodium's guarded, mlocked
allocations rather than a byte[], so they are not paged out and do not land
in a core dump. They are created exportable, deliberately: re-wrapping the
same bundle for a passphrase change or a new device needs to re-encode it,
and the alternative -- a long-lived managed array so the keys need not be
exportable -- keeps the identical secret in strictly worse memory. Every
export is into a buffer zeroed before the method returns.

Two spec changes, both found by implementing it, which is the argument for
writing code before calling a spec frozen:

- MK is 64 bytes, not 32. Skipping HKDF-Extract is correct for an Argon2id
  output (RFC 5869 3.3), but it means MK *is* the PRK, and .NET's
  HKDF.Expand rejects a PRK shorter than the hash output -- so a 32-byte MK
  cannot be expanded with SHA-512 at all. Widening it keeps the specified
  primitive; the alternatives were dropping to SHA-256 or adding an Extract
  step that conditions nothing.
- The bundle encoding is a fixed 92-byte layout rather than canonical CBOR.
  Canonicality is not load-bearing here -- unlike a key statement the bundle
  is never hashed or signed, only encrypted -- so CBOR's one advantage does
  not apply, while its canonicalisation rules are a real source of
  cross-implementation disagreement. It also costs a dependency
  System.Formats.Cbor is not in the shared framework. Safe to change now
  and not later: no bundle has ever been stored.

53 new tests. The encoding is checked against an independent codec written
in the test rather than by round-tripping production code against itself --
a round trip passes just as happily when both directions are wrong the same
way, and this format cannot change after one bundle is stored. The pinned
92-byte hex constant is the golden vector for the layout.

Most of the rest are negative, because a binding is only demonstrated by
the substitutions that fail: a wrap for another user, a grant from a
superseded generation, a payload pasted onto another item, a metadata blob
offered as a payload, a version rolled back.

jaap-jan d2a2ed8a29 Specify the key statement encoding and key log chain (crypto.md 7.1, 7.2)
Section 7 always required "a canonical, length-prefixed encoding" for
signatures without ever specifying one. That gap had to be closed before
enrollment could exist: the client hashes the key statement and uses the
result as an OIDC nonce, so the provider signs over those exact bytes. Two
implementations disagreeing by one byte produce two nonces and an
enrollment nobody can verify -- and it only shows up against a real
provider, never in a local test.

JSON cannot be the hashed form. Property order, number formatting, Unicode
escaping and whitespace all vary between serialisers. So the statement is
transmitted as JSON and hashed as a fixed binary encoding, and the two are
independent by construction.

Three details are load-bearing rather than stylistic:

- The presence byte before each string is what makes the encoding
  injective. Without it an absent email and an empty one encode
  identically, and two different statements share a binding.
- Timestamps truncate to milliseconds. PostgreSQL stores microseconds, so
  a statement that has been through the database must still hash to what
  the client hashed. The same applies to the key log, where an entry that
  cannot reproduce its own hash after being read back makes the chain
  unverifiable.
- The key log entry hash deliberately excludes the database sequence. It
  is unknown until the insert runs, and order already follows the hash
  links -- so a renumbered or gapped sequence column cannot silently
  reorder history.

KeyStatementFields is separate from Contracts.KeyStatement on purpose: one
may gain JSON fields freely, the other cannot change without invalidating
every stored binding, and Crypto must not depend on the contract assembly.
KeyStatementDriftTests makes a field added to one and not the other a
build failure, because a wire field outside the binding is unauthenticated
data the server can change undetected.

54 new tests and two new golden vector sections. The vectors pin the
absent-versus-empty email case and confirm that an offset-bearing
sub-millisecond timestamp encodes identically to its truncated UTC form.
Only additions to vectors.json; nothing existing moved.
2026-07-28 16:06:11 +02:00
jaap-jan b15af836a3 Freeze DSH1 crypto specification and implement the core (M1)
docs/crypto.md is now the normative, frozen specification. This had to land before
anything else in M1: the server holds ciphertext and no keys, so it can never
re-encrypt, and a format change after users hold data is a coordinated client rewrite
with no rollback.

Specification:
- DSH1 envelope layout, canonical 64-byte AAD encoding, SealTo construction, key
  hierarchy, Argon2id profiles, fingerprints, and the change rules for each version field.
- AAD encoding is fixed-width binary rather than delimited string concatenation, so no
  field value can forge a field boundary. This supersedes the illustrative form sketched
  in ADR 0001, which now points here.
- UUIDs are RFC 4122 big-endian. Guid.ToByteArray() emits the first three groups
  little-endian and would have made our ciphertext unreadable by any other implementation
  of this spec, failing only at a cross-implementation boundary.

Verified rather than assumed:
- PrimitiveAvailabilityTests proves X25519, Ed25519, XChaCha20-Poly1305, Argon2id and
  HKDF-SHA512 all function on net10.0. NSec 26.4.0 targets net9.0 and is consumed by
  forward compatibility; this closes one of the two package questions the plan flagged.
- Argon2Profile exists because NSec's MemorySize is in KIBIBYTES, not bytes. Passing bytes
  gives either a 256 GiB allocation or a 256 KiB KDF that cracks instantly. The type takes
  mebibytes so the unit cannot be got wrong at a call site. Found by benchmarking: the
  first measurements were ~1000x too slow, which turned out to be 19 GiB of work.
- Parameters measured, not guessed: 256 MiB/t=4 is 323 ms on this machine; the table of
  candidates is in the spec.

Implementation and tests (83 total, up from 17):
- AadDescriptor, DshEnvelope, DshCrypto (Seal/Open/SealTo/OpenSealed/fingerprints).
- Decryption returns null rather than throwing: ciphertext comes from a server that is
  explicitly not trusted, so a failed tag is an expected outcome.
- Envelope readers reject unknown algorithms and any non-zero flag bit, so an envelope
  that is not fully understood fails closed.
- Executable form of the spec's substitution claims: a server cannot move ciphertext
  between resources, roll back a key generation or item version, repurpose a payload as
  metadata, or confuse the two constructions.
- Golden vectors in tests/fixtures/crypto/vectors.json guard the format. Mutation-checked:
  a one-byte schema version change trips four tests including the guard.

Two build-infrastructure bugs found and fixed along the way:
- .editorconfig forced camelCase on const and static readonly fields. PascalCase is the
  .NET convention for both; the config was wrong, not the code.
- The golden fixture was resolved with [CallerFilePath], which ContinuousIntegrationBuild
  rewrites to /_/... under deterministic source paths. It passed locally and would have
  failed only in CI. Now copied to the output directory and read from there.

jaap-jan 3a81f3c90b Restructure into src/tests and add build foundation (M0)
Moves the scaffold to src/DodoSSH.Api and establishes the repo conventions the rest
of the milestones build on.

Structure:
- src/{Contracts,Crypto,Domain,Infrastructure,Api}, tests/{Contracts,Crypto,Domain}.Tests
- DodoSSH.slnx rewritten with src/ and tests/ solution folders

Build:
- Directory.Build.props centralises TFM, nullable, deterministic builds and
  TreatWarningsAsErrors; Directory.Packages.props pins every version centrally
- packages.lock.json committed so CI restores in locked mode
- NuGet.config clears machine-level sources, which both fixes NU1507 under central
  package management and makes restore reproducible off this machine
- Microsoft.OpenApi pinned to 2.11.0: ASP.NET Core 10.0.10 resolves 2.0.0, which is
  covered by GHSA-v5pm-xwqc-g5wc (high, patched in 2.7.5)

Analyzers:
- AnalysisLevel is Recommended, not All. With warnings-as-errors, All turns opinionated
  naming rules into build breaks and trains people to blanket-suppress.
- BannedSymbols.txt bans DateTime.UtcNow (TimeProvider), Guid.NewGuid (CreateVersion7),
  sync-over-async, MD5/SHA1, PBKDF2 and SecureString
- CA1711/CA1724 disabled: both are .NET Framework CAS-era naming rules
- PublicApiAnalyzers on Contracts only, since that assembly is the client's real contract

API:
- weather-forecast template removed
- UseHttpsRedirection removed; TLS terminates at the reverse proxy and redirecting
  behind one causes loops
- /healthz/{live,ready,startup}. Liveness deliberately checks no dependencies so a
  transient database outage cannot restart the container and kill live SSH sessions.

Notes:
- No coverage collector yet. Microsoft.Testing.Extensions.CodeCoverage pulls an MTP 1.x
  MSBuild extension that throws TypeLoadException against the MTP 2.3.x xunit.v3 brings.
  Coverage gates are an M3 concern; revisit with an MTP 2.x-aligned version then.

Verified: dotnet build (0 warnings), 17 tests pass, format check clean, API serves
health and OpenAPI endpoints.
