Share a vault with a team, without the server holding a key
M3's teams, sharing and ACLs. Teams with roles, a public-key directory, the append-only key log served for clients to check it against, team-owned vaults, and vault key grants wrapped by a client and stored opaquely by the server. VaultAccessService resolves team membership to PermissionFlags, so a viewer may pull and may not push; the desktop client reads and syncs every vault it holds a key for, and a real TEAMS screen replaces the one that said it did not exist. No migration: team, team_membership, vault.team_id and vault_key_grant have all been there since the first one, which is what carrying two unused tables bought. Membership is authorisation. A grant is access. The obvious model is one concept — "access", with a role attached, handed out by the server — and this architecture cannot implement it: a vault key is sealed to each member's X25519 key, and only a client holding the plaintext can seal it for somebody else. So "give Bob access" decomposes into a database write and a wrap, which happen on different machines. Adding a member makes the server serve them the vault; it cannot make it readable. VaultSummary.WrappedVaultKey is null in the meantime and the vault appears in their list saying it is waiting for a key, because hiding it until a grant existed would have been tidier and would have implied the server was the thing granting access. The screen says the same thing after every add, in the status line. ADR 0009 records the whole decision. Sharing verifies or refuses. A directory lookup is a claim by the server about a third party's public key, and wrapping to an unverified claim hands the vault to whoever made it — no amount of transport security helps, because the server is inside the threat model. KeyLogAudit reads the whole log, recomputes every entry's hash from its own contents, checks the chain from genesis, and refuses unless the offered key appears in it unchanged. There is no override flag: one that exists gets used on the day the log is briefly unreachable, and the resulting grant is indistinguishable from a correct one afterwards. What it still cannot promise is that the key is the right person's, so the fingerprint comes back for an out-of-band comparison and the success message says so every time. A test corrupts the fake server's log by one byte and watches the client refuse rather than warn. The roles are only the ones that are enforceable. There is no ConnectOnly, despite the design asking for one and TeamRole having room: SSH terminates on the client, so a session needs the credential's plaintext on that machine, and "may connect but may not read the key" cannot be enforced here. Shipping it as an option in a dropdown would have been a lie. Connect rides along with Read and is documented as an interface hint. Removal is named for what it does — it revokes grants and flags the vault for rekey, and claims nothing about what is already on somebody's laptop. Three things are deliberately absent, and each is a refusal rather than an omission. The rekey itself, because re-wrapping every item's data key under a new vault key needs a client holding the current one; the server records that a rotation is owed and the interface reports it, which is more honest than a button that only appears to do it. Ownership transfer, because allowing an owner to be removed without one leaves a team nobody can administer. And cross-vault host key trust: a pin in a team vault is listed but not consulted at connect time, because any member with Write could otherwise pre-approve a fingerprint another member's client then trusts silently for a host in their own vault. Scoping trust properly needs a scope on the SSH connect path, which IKnownHostStore has not got; until then the narrow direction is the safe one and the cost is in the README rather than hidden. Reading now spans vaults and writing still does not. Every list on the vault and hosts screens covers each vault the keyring opened, rows carry the vault they came from, and an edit goes back to that vault rather than to the active one — writing it to the active vault would fork the item and only show up when a colleague wondered why their change never arrived. A new item goes wherever a picker says, defaulting to the personal vault and never moving on its own, because an item filed into a team's vault is visible to that team and moving it back means deleting and retyping. The sidebar heading stops naming one vault once there are two, and each row names its own. The server checks what it can and nothing it cannot. It will not record a grant for a key its recipient no longer holds, for a superseded generation, or for somebody who is not in the team — each of those would otherwise surface days later at the far end as a tag failure indistinguishable from corruption. It does not verify the wrap or the signature, and the grant service says so: that would be a convenience and never the boundary, and would put an asymmetric implementation on a machine that is supposed to hold no keys. Two bugs the tests found. TeamsViewModel's busy gate blocked its own reload, so a team created a moment earlier was missing from the list it had just been added to. And syncing every vault turned a failure from an exception into a report, which made a background pass announce an unreachable vault once a minute — the exact behaviour AnAutomaticPassThatFails_LeavesTheStatusAlone exists to prevent. The fact is recorded and the message swallowed, as it was before; pressing Sync still names the vault and the reason. Also fixes a build break this branch started with: QuickConnectTests was never updated when M2 added ISftpSessionFactory to the shell's constructor, so nothing built at all. |

Move the API onto FastEndpoints, without moving the wire
Eight endpoints today, around sixty planned. The minimal-API shape — a static
class per area holding static local functions, route and policy and name
asserted in one fluent chain with the handler somewhere below it — has not hurt
yet, and would. A handler's dependencies are parameters rather than injected, a
group's RequireAuthorization sits far from the handler it governs, and there is
no type to hang an endpoint's own documentation on. FastEndpoints is one class
per endpoint, its route and authorization in Configure(), its handler a method
on the same type.
Nothing about the wire moves, and the evidence is that the 94 existing HTTP
tests pass with zero edits to any of them. Same routes, verbs, route
constraints, status codes, operation ids, and the same RFC 9457 bodies with the
same code values. Every place the idiomatic FastEndpoints answer would have
changed one of those, it was refused:
Endpoints are registered from an explicit List<Type>, not found by scanning.
ADR 0002 rejected reflection discovery by name, and the reason it gave is
sharper here than in general — under WebApplicationFactory the scan reaches the
test assembly, so an endpoint written in a test would be registered into the
host under test. The cost is a line per endpoint that can be forgotten, which is
what the endpoint-inventory test is for. That test is the one ADR 0002 promised
and never got.
Handlers still return Results<Ok<T>, NotFound, ProblemHttpResult> from
ExecuteAsync. The union executes as an ordinary IResult, which is what keeps
problem bodies going through the host's serialiser and IProblemDetailsService,
and what keeps the compile-time record of which statuses an endpoint can
produce. No Send.* call appears anywhere; the moment one does, a response has
left the host's serialiser.
Validation stays in the feature services. A Validator<T> short-circuits before
the handler and answers with FastEndpoints' own envelope, which carries no code
— and the code is the only part of an error the client branches on. Twenty-odd
tests assert a specific code on a 400. It is banned in BannedSymbols.txt rather
than merely avoided, because the framework's documentation leads straight to it
and it looks like an improvement.
Three defects arrived with the framework and were caught in review. All three
were green at the time, which is the part worth remembering. FastEndpoints maps
GET /_test_url_cache_ unconditionally, in every environment, with no policy and
no way to opt out; it answers with the whole endpoint-name-to-route table. It is
short-circuited to 404 — by asking routing which endpoint it selected, after the
first attempt compared the request path with Ordinal and was therefore bypassable
at /_TEST_URL_CACHE_, certified by a test that only ever tried one spelling. The
default request binder writes query-string values over the deserialised body,
which would have let ?identityProviderToken=... put an ID token in a URL and from
there into every proxy log on the path; every endpoint now binds from the body
alone. And a route value read with Route<T>() is invisible to ApiExplorer, so the
generated document named {vaultId} in a path template with nothing declaring it —
invalid OpenAPI, and unusable by the client generators the document exists for.
Two changes to the surface, both deliberate. A body that cannot be deserialised
now answers with a problem document carrying malformed-request, rather than an
empty 400: FastEndpoints' default announces application/problem+json while
sending something else, and names the failing .NET type on the wire, in a
codebase that sets IncludeErrorDetails = false to prevent exactly that. And the
route table above returns 404 where it would otherwise have answered any
authenticated caller.
Each of the three fixes has a regression test that was checked by reverting the
fix and watching it fail — four failures for the route table and the binder, four
for the document. That check is the whole reason to trust them, since all three
defects passed a full green suite on the way in.
950 tests green across 16 projects, 14 of them new and no existing test edited.
Zero warnings, format clean, locked restore clean. FluentValidation, JobQueues
and Messaging are in the graph now and none is used.
Not verified: the generated document's response schemas, which differ from
before — FastEndpoints contributes its own Produces metadata. Nothing consumes
the document yet, and MapOpenApi runs only in Development behind the fallback
policy. It needs pinning if ADR 0002's build-time artifacts/openapi/v1.json is
ever built.
