jaap-jan 2caedd93ff Merge branch 'main' into the Android head
Main grew the screens the host-management plan called for — hosts, pins, snippets, logs,
import, teams — plus the ObjectStore and Import projects behind two of them, and moved
WindowsDeviceKeyStore into the desktop head's Platform folder.

Five of those view models landed in a directory this branch had already moved, so they
join the rest in DodoSSH.Client.Shell: git spotted the rename and put them there, and the
namespaces followed. Shell picks up ObjectStore and Import as a result, which the Android
head then gets transitively and will use neither of at first — scoped storage means there
is no ~/.ssh/config to import, and file transfer is out of its first scope.

Desktop suites green at 155 and 64.

jaap-jan fe9d7fc289 Give DodoSSH a phone, and a shared shell for both heads to drive
The Android head from docs/android-port.md, taken as far as its step 6.

Step 3, the spike, is answered and its throwaway screen is gone: libsodium.so and
libe_sqlite3.so are both in the arm64 APK, so NSec resolves its native half on Android
despite shipping no Android build, and the local cache opens. Two findings the audit
could not have had: Avalonia.Controls.WebView only ships net10.0-android36.0, which
settles the open "which Android versions" question at targetSdk 36; and Android has
blocked cleartext HTTP since API 28, so the terminal renderer needs a network security
config scoped to 127.0.0.1 or the WebView loads nothing.

DodoSSH.Client.Shell is new and is why the phone can exist: the view models, the terminal
renderer files and the palette moved there so both heads drive one state machine and draw
from one set of tokens. The desktop head is otherwise untouched and its 144 tests still
pass.

The platform pieces behind interfaces that already existed: the profile directory from
filesDir, a device key wrapped by a StrongBox-backed key that a fingerprint releases, and
a foreground service so a shell outliving a vault lock stays true on a platform that
stops backgrounded processes.

Sign-in is deliberately absent rather than approximated. It needs an app link, because
reusing the desktop loopback listener is the attack RFC 8252 section 8.3 names.

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 04faef6597 Move files to and from a host over SFTP
M2's file transfer, built bottom-up: an SFTP session on the SSH layer, a
transfer queue in a project of its own, and the two-pane browser the design
asked for replacing the screen that said it did not exist. Remote listings
carry names, sizes, modification times and a real drwxr-xr-x — nothing in this
repository could render a POSIX mode before — and the queue moves one file at a
time with progress, throughput and resume.

The design import assumed this would be an SFTP subsystem channel on
ISshConnection, beside the shell on a transport that is already up. SSH.NET
does not offer that: SftpClient derives from BaseClient and owns its own
transport, and there is no supported way to hand it an SshClient's session. So
file transfer opens a second authenticated connection, and it is named for
that rather than dressed up as a channel — OpenSftpAsync is on
ISftpSessionFactory, not on a connection. The difference is visible to a user:
the host records a second login, and a host whose password is typed each time
asks for it again on this screen. It goes through the same host key gate, the
same pin and the same two refusals a shell does, so a fingerprint approved for
a terminal is approved here and one approved here reaches the other machines
with the next sync. docs/design-import-gaps.md is corrected, and marked as the
one row where what shipped differs from what it predicted.

Nothing is written at its final name until it is complete. Every transfer goes
to a .dodossh-part file beside its destination and is renamed into place at the
end, so an interrupted transfer can never be mistaken for a finished one —
which matters most for what this screen is actually for, which is copying a
build artefact onto a server and then running it. A destination that already
exists is refused outright rather than overwritten: the queue has no way to
ask, and silently replacing a file somebody's process is serving is the worse
of the two failures. The remote pane has DELETE and MKDIR so that refusal is
not a dead end. A test against the container pins the assumption underneath all
of this — that SFTP's rename does not clobber.

Resume works within a run of the application and not across a restart, and the
limit is deliberate rather than unfinished. Nothing records which source wrote
a part file, and resuming one on the strength of its name matching is how a
corrupt artefact gets delivered with nothing reporting a failure; a part file
found at startup is started over. Making it survive a restart needs the
preferences store this client still has not got. The offset a resume starts at
is the part file's own length rather than the transfer's recorded progress: a
cancellation can land between a write completing and the counter moving, and
only one of those two is a fact about the bytes that are there.

The queue and its connection outlive a lock, as shells do. LockAsync already
argues that locking must not destroy work in flight — it is what somebody does
when they walk away from the machine, which is exactly when a long transfer is
most likely to be running — so TransfersViewModel is created once and the vault
is attached on unlock and detached on lock. What locking takes is the host
list, and it has to: those rows carry decrypted secrets.

DodoSSH.Client.Transfer is a new project rather than more of Client.Ssh. The
two answer different questions — one is about reaching a host, the other about
moving bytes and what to do when moving them stops halfway — and this is the
only client project that deliberately touches the local filesystem.

Three defects the tests found, none of which review would have. SftpPath.Name
answered an empty string for the root. NavigateRemoteAsync wrapped itself in
the busy guard, so navigating from inside another command did nothing at all
and the remote pane simply stayed empty after connecting, with no failure
anywhere to explain it. And opening an SFTP session per test made two
handshakes per test — this client learns a host key by being refused — which
pushed the SSH assembly past sshd's MaxStartups and failed a different few
unrelated tests each run; the session is shared through the fixture now, with
the reason written where the next person will hit it.

1004 tests green across 18 projects, 24 of them new: the SFTP subsystem against
the OpenSSH container, the queue against a real temporary directory and a fake
host, and three more layout measurements because a screen this window has never
laid out is a screen never checked.

Not verified: the screen has not been looked at running. The layout harness
measures it at the window's minimum in three shapes, which is the class of
defect that has shipped here before, but reaching it in the application needs
the compose stack, the migrations, the API and a browser sign-in. What is still
absent — the status bar's transfer count, dragging between the panes,
transferring a directory, and sftp over a bastion — is in
docs/design-import-gaps.md.

jaap-jan c5dec2d68e Measure the vault column instead of arguing about it
Nothing in this repository loaded a .axaml, so the one class of defect this
window has actually shipped — a control arranged past the edge of its container,
where it cannot be clicked — was the one class nothing could catch. The setup
screens rendered sliced once, with their buttons unreachable. The vault column is
the next candidate: 340 pixels wide, two lists and two editors, and the only
thing keeping it from clipping its own Save button at the window's 520-pixel
minimum is a state rule that one editor may be open at a time.

That rule was added on the strength of an argument. This adds an
Avalonia.Headless project that lays real XAML out at a real size and reports
what a user could not reach, and the argument is now a number: with both editors
open the column overflows, so the rule is load-bearing rather than defensive.
BothEditorsAtOnce_DoNotFit_WhichIsWhyTheRuleExists is the test, and it says what
to do if it ever starts passing — the column has room, so delete the rule, not
the test.

Two findings arrived by measuring rather than by reasoning, and the first one
changed the design.

MainWindow cannot be shown headlessly at all. Showing it attaches the terminal's
NativeWebView, whose Win32 adapter initialises WebView2 on attach, and WebView2
refuses a non-STA thread — which is exactly why Program.Main carries [STAThread]
and is written down in that comment. A HeadlessUnitTestSession owns its
dispatcher thread and offers no apartment choice, so the whole window is out of
reach at any size. That is pinned as a test asserting RPC_E_CHANGED_MODE by
HResult rather than by message, so a future Avalonia that makes the adapter lazy
will fail it and the harness can be widened.

So the column had to become its own control to be measurable, which is the
extraction the type-selector rework wanted anyway. Keyboard release moved with
it: MainWindow used to call Focus() on HostList by name, and now asks
VaultColumn.KeyboardTarget. The window decides that the keyboard should leave the
terminal and the column decides where it lands — which is the seam the rework
needs, because once the column shows one list at a time, "which list owns the
keyboard" is a question only the column can answer.

The second finding is the way this kind of test lies quietly. The hint class
lived in MainWindow.Styles and carries TextWrapping. A Window's styles reach its
whole tree, so nothing about the application depended on where it lived — but a
control laid out on its own loses them, and every hint paragraph would have
measured as a single line. The harness would have passed while measuring heights
that were all too small. The three shared classes now live in App.axaml, which
changes no rendering and makes the measurement honest.

The detector is calibrated in both directions, because a clipping detector that
never fires reads as a guarantee: a deliberately clipped Save button is caught by
name, and a list longer than its viewport is exempt. Scrolling is how a list is
supposed to handle more rows than fit, and without that exemption the host list
would fail the moment it had content. It also mis-fired once and the rule is
narrower for it — an empty ListBox is zero pixels tall and correct, so "arranged
with no size" now applies only to controls the theme gives a height to.

Skia rather than the headless drawing stub, deliberately. The stub's font manager
invents glyph metrics, and text height is an input to every stacked panel in this
column, so measuring against it would produce numbers that are self-consistent
and unrelated to the application.

A separate test project rather than more tests in DodoSSH.Client.App.Tests.
Avalonia's application, dispatcher and platform are process-global singletons
initialised once, and that project's identity is the shell's state machine
without Avalonia — the whole reason sign-in is a delegate. The fakes needed to
reach a real unlocked vault are shared from DodoSSH.Client.Session.Tests by
source link: a project reference would make one test project a library of
another, and a copy would be a third implementation of the same decision table
drifting from the other two.

855 tests green, 10 of them new. Zero warnings, dotnet format clean.

Not done, and this is groundwork rather than the item itself: the type selector.
The column still holds both lists at once, so a third item type would still
recreate the defect the one-editor rule works around. What is different is that
the rework can now be checked instead of eyeballed — including the claim it is
being made for, that one editor at a time stops being a runtime rule and becomes
a fact about what is in the visual tree.

What this harness will never catch is the terminal's native child window
compositing over Avalonia content. That is a Win32 property of a real window, no
headless surface reproduces it, and it is the reason the WebView is collapsed
rather than covered.

jaap-jan 1d262b7ccc Run M1's end-to-end slice, and fix the two bugs it found
The whole vertical slice now runs against a real Keycloak, a real API, a
real PostgreSQL and a real sshd: sign in through the browser flow, enroll
with the identity-provider key binding, unlock, create a host, sync it,
read it back on a second machine, unlock again with no network, accept an
unseen host key, and open an interactive shell. Opt-in, because it needs
the development stack; skipped with a message naming the commands.

It found two bugs on its first run, and both are the same class: two
sides of a stub agreeing with each other about something the
specification never said.

**The API never applied DodoSshJsonContext to its HTTP JSON options.**
Minimal APIs therefore used the framework's web defaults, which write an
enum as a number. Every request DTO carrying one failed to bind against a
client writing the specified string form — which is the entire sync
surface, unreachable from the real client, with a 400 naming only the
parameter. The documented guarantee that request bodies reject unmapped
members was likewise not in effect anywhere.

Nothing caught it because the API tests posted with PostAsJsonAsync's
defaults, so they and the server had independently settled on integers.
Those tests now serialise through the contract, which is the deeper fix:
removing the new configuration fails 13 of them. Copying settings into
options a host owns is itself the hazard the context warns about, so
ApplyTo lives beside the settings it mirrors and ApplyToTests pins the
transformation, including that inserting the resolver leaves the caller's
own in place.

**The realm registered a loopback redirect URI Keycloak rejects.**
`http://127.0.0.1:*/callback` looks more explicit than the RFC 8252 form
and is broken: Keycloak's wildcards are trailing-only, so the `*` parses
as a literal port and every authorization request came back "Invalid
parameter: redirect_uri". Providers ignore the port for loopback hosts,
which is the whole mechanism, so the correct registration is
`http://127.0.0.1/callback` — path pinned, port free. The value the
server advertises through the discovery document said the same wrong
thing and now says the right one.

Two smaller things, both documented in docs/platform-flags.md:

- --import-realm skips a realm that already exists, so editing the realm
  file and restarting Keycloak changes nothing and serves stale
  configuration. The container has to be recreated. The compose comment
  claimed the opposite.
- Keycloak marks its session cookies Secure even over plain HTTP, because
  SameSite=None requires it. A spec-conformant client drops them and the
  login POST answers 400 with no message; browsers complete the flow only
  because they exempt loopback. Harmless for the product, fatal for
  automation, so ScriptedBrowser carries the cookies by hand and says why.

Also: the server enforces a 64 MiB floor on the passphrase KDF, so this
suite cannot use the 8 MiB profile the other client suites take for
speed. Those only get away with it because their in-memory servers have
no policy — worth knowing rather than rediscovering.

638 tests. The solution-wide run stays green with the stack down: exit
code 8 means "no tests ran", which the platform reports as failure, so
the opt-in project ignores exactly that code.
2026-07-29 11:37:49 +02:00
jaap-jan 49f617b450 Wire the Avalonia shell to the vault
The host list now comes from the vault instead of from a form. A fresh
machine takes a server URL, signs in through the browser, enrolls, and
from then on opens with the passphrase alone.

DodoSSH.Client.Session is the composition layer: where a profile lives,
how it unlocks, and how a machine gets one. ClientPaths picks a
non-roaming per-OS directory — %LOCALAPPDATA% and never %APPDATA%,
because a SQLite cache that roams between two machines is a corrupt one,
and each machine's outbox is its own. SessionOpener needs no transport at
all and could not reach one if it wanted to; that is the offline unlock,
asserted rather than asserted about. A wrong passphrase, a stale KDF and a
grant revoked by a rekey are three different answers, because the remedies
are three different things and telling someone to retype a passphrase that
was never the problem is worse than saying nothing.

The shell's states are the onboarding story. The recovery code gets its
own state that cannot be clicked past: it exists for one moment, losing it
with the passphrase loses the vault, and there is no server-side reset by
design. It is dropped from memory on confirmation rather than merely
hidden.

Sign-in is a delegate over IVaultServer, so the whole state machine runs
in a test against an in-memory server — no browser, no identity provider,
no toolkit. The view models are plain observable objects, which is what
makes that possible. What it does not cover is whether the XAML binds to
the right names; that needs a rendered tree and Avalonia.Headless, and is
its own piece of work.

Three things found by doing it rather than by reading it:

- Pooled SQLite connections keep the database file open after the last
  context is disposed. On Windows that means locked, so the application
  could never replace its own cache — and a test could not clean up after
  itself, which is how it surfaced. Dispose now clears the pool.
- EF's SQLite provider puts the database in WAL mode, so the cache is
  three files. A comment in ClientCacheFactory claimed the opposite;
  reading PRAGMA journal_mode off a real launch settled it. WAL is the
  right mode here — a sync pass writes while the interface reads — so the
  comment was wrong on the merits as well as on the fact.
- Enrolling a device key with nowhere to keep the private half would put a
  wrap on the server nobody can open and make the device list claim this
  machine can unlock without a passphrase. Device binding is now optional
  and the shell declines it until the OS keystore is wired.

Verified on Windows: the client created %LOCALAPPDATA%\DodoSSH\cache.db
and migrated it on first launch, and msedgewebview2 held an established
connection to the data plane while the unlock overlay covered it — which
is the point of covering the WebView rather than collapsing it, since a
NativeWebView that is never laid out is never realised.

630 tests, up from 593. The recovery-code gate and the offline unlock were
each verified by breaking them and watching the right test fail.

Still to do for M1's actual definition of done: the manual run against the
real API and a real Keycloak. Credentials are not a synced entity type
yet, so a connection still asks for a password, and the interface says so
rather than implying otherwise.

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 5fccd53824 Add the Avalonia app and the xterm renderer, and fix two real bugs
The terminal works end to end. A new integration test drives a real sshd in
a container through a real PTY, the real pump, the real loopback WebSocket
with its token and origin checks, and a ClientWebSocket standing in for the
page: the login banner arrives, typed input round-trips, and `stty size`
reports the 100x30 the session asked for. The only untested link left is
xterm drawing bytes it was handed.

The WebView is de-risked on Windows, which was the plan's largest risk. Not
by assertion: with the app running there is an established TCP connection
from msedgewebview2 to the data plane port, so WebView2 launched, navigated
to the loopback page, executed terminal.js, and completed the WebSocket
handshake against the real token and origin checks. Linux remains unproven
and the package's own release notes now corroborate the concern -- Linux uses
a WPE backend, and it ships a NativeWebDialog described as useful where
embedded WebViews may be unavailable.

Two bugs found by building it, both of which would have shipped:

- ShellStream.Write buffers and needs an explicit Flush. Without one a
  keystroke is accepted, reported as written, and never reaches the remote:
  the terminal displays output perfectly and simply stops responding to
  input. SSH.NET's own WriteLine flushes, which is why the earlier spike
  never hit it. Found by isolating the pump against real SSH and reading
  BytesRead=51 -- banner and prompt through, nothing after.
- The Windows app manifest needs a supportedOS list, or Avalonia's native
  control host fails outright and the terminal never starts.

Also fixed a genuinely flaky test I happened to catch: SyncCursorTests
tampered with the *last* base64url character, whose low bits the decoder
ignores when the input length is not a multiple of three -- so a tampered
cursor sometimes decoded to identical bytes and verified. It failed roughly
one run in thirty, depending on a random key. Now tampers the penultimate
character, which is fully significant at every length; 40 consecutive runs
are clean.

xterm 6.0.0 plus the fit and webgl addons are vendored as UMD bundles rather
than built with npm, so a clean clone needs only the .NET SDK. Provenance
and licences are recorded next to them, along with the UMD global names
terminal.js depends on -- a bundle that switched to ES modules would load
without error and leave Terminal undefined.

The renderer acknowledges output from term.write's completion callback, not
on receipt. Acknowledging early would return flow-control credit for bytes
the screen has not caught up with, which is the one thing the credit window
exists to measure.

TerminalWorkspace moved into DodoSSH.Client.Terminal: it has no Avalonia
dependency, and having it there is what let the end-to-end test exist at all.

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

jaap-jan eb354bcdd9 Add the SSH session layer and the terminal data plane
The throughput harness the plan requires before any UI, plus the SSH
plumbing under it. 94 new tests, no WebView involved.

Credit-based flow control is what makes `yes` survivable. A terminal renders
at 60 Hz at best while a remote produces output as fast as the network
allows, and the difference has to accumulate somewhere or be refused.
Credit is reserved *before* reading, never after: because the pump cannot
read more than the renderer has room for, the coalescing buffer is bounded
by the window rather than by how fast the remote can talk. When credit runs
out the pump stops reading, SSH's own receive window closes, and the remote
sshd blocks -- backpressure to the source with no custom protocol.

Verified by falsification, not just by passing: with the credit gate removed
three tests fail, including the throughput harness's bounded-memory
assertion. Acknowledgements are clamped because they cross into JavaScript,
where a buggy or hostile page could otherwise claim to have rendered a
gigabyte and talk the host into an unbounded read.

Host key trust is enforced by *failing* the connection rather than
prompting inside the handshake. SSH.NET raises verification synchronously,
so consulting the user there would block the handshake on a UI round trip
and deadlock the first time the prompt needed the UI thread. Unknown host
and changed key become distinct exceptions the caller resolves
asynchronously. A mismatch has no retry path at all: a dialog offering to
continue is how users are trained to click through the one warning that
actually indicates interception. A legitimately rebuilt server is handled by
removing the pin in settings, away from the moment of connecting.

The data plane serves the renderer page from the same loopback listener as
the socket, which makes Origin predictable -- always http://127.0.0.1:{port}
-- where a WebView virtual-host mapping would give a different origin per
backend and nothing to validate. The token is substituted at serve time, so
it never touches disk and never appears in a URL. Being clear about what
that buys: not protection from a process running as this user, which can
read our memory anyway, but from a page in the user's browser attempting
WebSocket connections to loopback ports, which is a real and routine thing.

Two bugs the tests caught. The accept loop handled connections serially, so
an upgraded WebSocket parked it inside the receive loop and every later
request went unanswered -- the page's own script among them. The suite hung
rather than failed, which is how I found it. And SHA-1 is unavoidable here:
RFC 6455 mandates it for Sec-WebSocket-Accept, where it authenticates
nothing. Suppressed narrowly with that reasoning; the alternative,
HttpListener.AcceptWebSocketAsync, throws PlatformNotSupportedException off
Windows.
2026-07-28 21:58:55 +02:00
jaap-jan 94f66be5e8 Add the OIDC client: PKCE loopback sign-in and the key binding flow
Authorization Code with PKCE on a loopback redirect, per RFC 6749, RFC 7636
and RFC 8252. Zero package references: the flow is fully specified, and the
one thing a library would own for us -- nonce generation and validation -- is
exactly what the key binding needs to control. Duende's OidcClient generates
and validates its own nonce as an internal detail, and the binding requires
the nonce be a specific value: the hash of the key statement being enrolled.
Fighting that is worse than owning the flow.

AuthorizeKeyBindingAsync is the client half of the primary trust anchor. It
runs a second authorization with nonce set to the statement hash and
prompt=login, so the ID token that returns is the provider's signature over
exactly those public keys, attesting to a user present now rather than to a
session opened at some unknown earlier time. It requests only openid -- a
second refresh token would be one more long-lived credential for no benefit
-- and rejects a token whose nonce is not the one it asked for, because
enrolling that would store evidence verifying against keys we are not
publishing.

The nonce is read without validating the ID token's signature. Sanctioned by
OIDC Core 3.1.3.7: for a token received by direct communication with the
token endpoint, TLS server authentication may stand in for signature
checking. That reasoning does not extend to another user's binding, which
arrives via the DodoSSH server and must be verified against JWKS fetched
directly -- the directory work in M3.

Raw TcpListener rather than HttpListener for the redirect: an ephemeral port
can be bound and read atomically instead of picking one and hoping it is
still free, there is no HTTP.SYS URL-ACL question on Windows, and the whole
surface is one request line. It answers 404 on other paths and keeps
waiting, because a browser asks for /favicon.ico first and treating that as
the callback would abort every sign-in. 127.0.0.1 rather than localhost: RFC
8252 permits either, but the name resolves through the hosts file.

20 tests, driving the real listener over TCP with a fake browser that
actually fetches the redirect -- injecting a fabricated callback would skip
the parsing, path filtering and response writing that can break. Mostly
negative, because the loopback port is reachable by every local process: a
response with the wrong state is rejected *and* never reaches the token
endpoint, metadata declaring an issuer other than its own authority is
rejected (RFC 8414 3.3, without which a mix-up attack works), a provider
offering only 'plain' is fatal rather than a silent downgrade, and the
verifier sent is checked against the challenge advertised so PKCE is not
theatre that only fails in production.

Two bugs caught by writing the tests: the authorize URL builder dropped
client_id entirely after a refactor, and CancellationTokenSource.CancelAfter
has no TimeProvider overload -- so the browser timeout is now constructed
with the clock and a test can advance it instead of waiting five minutes.
2026-07-28 21:13:35 +02:00
jaap-jan 885fb17bdc Clear the SSH gate: window-change reaches the remote, and licence as MIT
Licence is MIT, set solution-wide rather than only on the packable project:
DodoSSH.Contracts is published so clients can build against it, and a
package with no licence expression is one a corporate policy scanner
rejects outright.

The SSH.NET spike is the M1 client gate and it passes. SSH.NET 2025.1.0
exposes ShellStream.ChangeWindowSize, but a method existing is not the
remote observing it, so the tests read `stty size` back from a real sshd
after resizing rather than asserting the call did not throw. Repeated
resizes each take effect too, which matters because dragging a window edge
produces a stream of them. The IChannelSession fallback is not needed.

Also verified against a real sshd: password and public-key auth, that the
host key arrives as a raw blob we can fingerprint ourselves rather than
reading SSH.NET's MD5 property, and that refusing the key via CanTrust
actually aborts the connection -- without which the TOFU dialog would be
decoration.

Kept as a permanent suite, not deleted after the spike. An upgrade that
silently stopped sending the request would present as wrapped output only
after a resize, which is easy to misattribute to the terminal emulator.

Two bugs in the test itself, both worth naming because either would have
been read as "resize does not work":

- A PTY emits CRLF, and the anchored regex rejected the CR. The output
  visibly contained `24 80` while the match failed.
- Each read can begin with output still buffered from the previous command,
  including its size line. Taking the first match would have reported the
  pre-resize size.

platform-flags.md now records window-change as resolved rather than
unverified -- a stale flag is worse than none -- plus the three real SSH.NET
limits found on the way: ShellStream does not override ReadAsync so every
idle session parks a pool thread, one connection cannot serve both
SshClient and SftpClient, and agent forwarding needs an upstream change.

jaap-jan 98d29bff37 Add HTTP integration harness and the sync authorization matrix (M1)
ci / build and test (ubuntu) (push) Has been cancelled
ci / build (windows) (push) Has been cancelled
27 end-to-end tests over the real HTTP pipeline, against a PostgreSQL container and a
stubbed identity provider. This closes the gap the previous commit flagged.

Authentication is genuinely exercised, not bypassed. StubIdentityProvider serves real OIDC
discovery and JWKS via WireMock and signs tokens with a real RSA key, so the application's
own JwtBearer pipeline validates issuer, audience, signature, lifetime and claims. A
TestAuthHandler that short-circuits authentication would hide exactly the claim-mapping
mistakes that cause real authorization holes. Proven by rejecting: no token, a foreign
signing key, the wrong audience, the wrong issuer, and an expired token.

Authorization denials — the tests that matter most:
- Another user's vault is 404, not 403, for both pull and push. A distinct
  "exists but forbidden" answer is an existence oracle for other tenants' vault ids.
- A denied push writes nothing: no host row and no change-log entry. A denial that still
  mutated state would be worse than no check at all.
- A team vault is denied until M3 rather than falling through to a permissive default.

Behaviour covered: push/pull round trip, cursor advance (and that an empty pull does not
rewind the cursor, which would replay history), tampered cursor rejection, stale-version
conflict returning server state without overwriting, operation-id replay reported Duplicate
and applied once, a mixed batch applying the good and reporting the bad, relay field
enforcement both ways, delete clearing the relay address, tombstones carrying no payload,
and JIT provisioning happening exactly once.

Two configuration problems found by running it:
- appsettings.json carried empty-string placeholders for the connection string and OIDC
  authority. Under minimal hosting those beat anything a test registers via
  ConfigureAppConfiguration, because Program.cs adds its own sources after that callback
  runs. Removed them outright — an empty placeholder turns "not configured" into
  "configured as empty", which defeats failing fast. Tests now use DODOSSH_ environment
  variables, which Program.cs adds last.
- My first fix for minting an expired test token derived notBefore from the expiry, which
  put nbf fourteen minutes in the future for normal tokens and made every valid token 401.
  It needs the earlier of now-1min and exp-1min.

Verified: 0 warnings on a clean rebuild, 173 tests pass (up from 146), format clean.
2026-07-28 15:11:43 +02:00
jaap-jan eaf68c86b0 Add data model, DbContext and initial migration (M1)
Schema for identity, vaults, grants, hosts and the sync change log, verified against a
real PostgreSQL 18 container rather than an in-memory provider: partial unique indexes,
CHECK constraints, citext and identity-always columns are all provider behaviour that an
in-memory fake would not exercise.

Invariants pushed into the database, so they hold even when application code has a bug:
- ck_host_relay_target is a security boundary, not tidiness. A host may carry a plaintext
  hostname and port ONLY when relay is deliberately enabled. Both directions are tested;
  the important one is that relay-disabled hosts cannot carry an address, since otherwise
  a bug would silently give the server infrastructure visibility it was never granted.
- ck_vault_owner: exactly one of owner_user_id or team_id, or permission resolution would
  have no defined answer.
- ck_vault_key_grant_recipient: member grants name a user; recovery and escrow grants are
  wrapped to a key and must not.
- ck_user_key_wrap_kdf: a password-derived wrap without its parameters is permanently
  unopenable, so a partial write is rejected outright.

Present from the first migration on purpose:
- GrantKind (Member/Recovery/Escrow). Recovery cannot be bolted on later — every vault
  created before it existed would be unrecoverable by design.
- team and team_membership, though team features are M3. Adding them later would mean
  introducing a foreign key on a live vault table.
- Host.ContentKeyId, reserved for per-item content keys wrapped to individual users.
- user_key as its own table, so key rotation does not require altering the user row.

Two things verified rather than assumed:
- Npgsql's UseXminAsConcurrencyToken helper no longer exists in EF 10, so xmin is mapped
  directly in XminConcurrency. The generated migration *looks* like it creates an xmin
  column; it does not. Confirmed by inspecting pg_attribute (attnum -2, a system column)
  and by grepping the emitted DDL. A test pins both, because had it created a real column
  PostgreSQL would have rejected the name.
- EF Core is now pinned centrally. The Npgsql provider asks for 10.0.4 while
  EntityFrameworkCore.Design pulls 10.0.10, and because Design is PrivateAssets=all that
  higher version does not flow to referencing projects — producing a CS1705 in any test
  project referencing Infrastructure.

Also commits artifacts/schema/v0.1.sql, the idempotent script, as the baseline for future
upgrade tests.

Verified: 0 warnings, 122 tests pass (27 new against Postgres), format clean.

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.
