jaap-jan	5d447da532	Take a rotated vault's contents onto the new key as well ... Rotating a vault re-keyed the vault and not its contents, which was the deal struck last time: everything already stored stayed sealed under the generation it was written with, every remaining member kept the older keys, and the guarantee was narrowed to "nothing written from now on". That left one gap worth closing — somebody who walked off with the old key could still open old ciphertext they later got hold of — and the reason it was safe to defer is the reason it was cheap to add. A vault at mixed generations reads perfectly well, so the pass that moves items across can stop half way and be run again. VaultResealer walks the vault and rewrites each item as an ordinary upsert against the version the server holds. It never decodes the plaintext: an item is opened and the same bytes are sealed again under a fresh data key, so an item written by a newer client crosses a rotation untouched rather than being re-encoded through this build's codec and quietly losing the fields this build has no concept of. It also means nothing in the pass knows what an item is, which is why one loop covers every type including the ones added after it. A conflict is counted and skipped rather than merged — there is nothing to merge, since no content changes — and the next pass picks the item up at the version the other client left. The half that a pass over stored items cannot see is a change queued before the rotation and pushed after it, which would put a brand-new item into the vault under the key the person who just left still holds. So the push path re-seals a stale payload as it dispatches it, writing the revision back to the outbox first so that a retry sends the same bytes rather than a fresh envelope. Between the two, nothing reaches the server under a superseded generation at all. Queued items are therefore deliberately left alone by the pass: rewriting one there would overwrite the user's unpushed work with the version the server holds, which is the one thing a re-keying pass must never do. Removal runs it last, after a sync — a mirror that is behind produces a batch of conflicts instead of a re-sealed vault — and the status line distinguishes the two guarantees, because they are not the same: a vault fully re-sealed is closed to the person who left, and one with items outstanding is closed only to what happens next. Six tests, and three mutations run against them: making the re-seal return the payload unchanged fails five of the six, making the push path skip re-sealing fails the queued-edit test and only that one, and counting conflicts as applied fails the write-elsewhere test. One of the six was wrong before it was right — it modelled a third-party write by re-pushing an existing payload at a bumped version, which no real client would do, and it took reading the AAD to see that the test was lying rather than the code.	2026-08-04 10:18:14 +02:00
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.	2026-07-31 20:30:05 +02:00
jaap-jan	9608d73747	Come back from a sync position the server will not accept ... "The server returned 400: The sync cursor is not valid for this vault. Resync from the beginning." told the user exactly what to do and gave them no way to do it. The cursor is the only thing a pull sends, so the refusal was permanent: the next pass read the same stored cursor and was told the same thing, once a minute, for ever. And because the pull runs first, the exception ended the pass before it reached the outbox — so the vault stopped receiving other machines' changes and stopped sending its own. A machine that met this went quietly read-only until somebody deleted its cache. The engine now does what the message asks. A pull refused with the invalid-cursor problem code — the code, never the prose, which is free to change — drops this vault's position, writes that down, and reads the log again from the beginning. The restarted request carries no cursor, which is the one position a server cannot reject, so the retry cannot loop; a refusal of that is rethrown rather than retried, and a restart is allowed once per pull. The position is saved before the replay starts, so a process that dies halfway through begins the next one from the beginning too rather than meeting the same refusal again. The mirror is deliberately kept. Replaying rewrites every row the server still has and applying a change is a blind overwrite, so the re-pull repairs the mirror on its way past; clearing it first would claim more than the evidence supports — the position was refused, not the contents — and would leave a machine that lost its connection mid-replay with less than it started with. That leaves one gap, named in the remarks rather than left to be discovered: once tombstone collection exists, a replay stops carrying deletions older than the retention window. None of the causes are the user's doing — a rotated cursor signing key, a vault served from a restored database, a cache copied between machines — so nothing asks them to decide anything. The report carries ResyncedFromStart and the status line says the position was not recognised and the vault was read again. It is kept out of NeedsAttention, because nothing is outstanding, but the background pass breaks its usual silence for it: a sync that pulled the whole vault on a day nobody changed anything otherwise reads as a fault. The fake server grew a switch that refuses cursors the way a rotated signing key does, including ones it minted itself. Three cases: the vault is re-read and the change on the far side of the refused position arrives; the edits waiting in the outbox are still pushed in that same pass, which is the half that made this worth recovering from rather than merely reporting; and a server that refuses the beginning itself is surfaced instead of replayed against. dotnet build is clean at zero warnings, dotnet format is clean, and the sync and app suites pass — 109 and 101.	2026-07-31 11:32:14 +02:00
jaap-jan	e3fd3e1728	Sync and authenticate with SSH keys on the client ... Completes the client half of SSH keys: they sync alongside hosts, appear in their own list, and can be selected to authenticate a connection instead of typing a password. The reconciler and the repository were Host-typed throughout, so the choice was to generalise them or to keep a second copy per item type. Generalised, because ItemReconciler's whole premise is that the pull and the push paths must answer the same collision the same way — two copies would drift the first time one of them was fixed. What is genuinely per-type now arrives through IItemKind<TSecret>: the cipher, the merge, the plaintext columns, and the noun to use when telling a person what happened to their item. Generic where the server's IItemKind is not, and for the reason that reverses there — the client needs the concrete type, because it merges field by field. The pull filter is derived from the same registry that builds the reconcilers. That is the specific failure being designed out: an item type that encrypts, merges and lists perfectly and is never once requested from the server, so it works on the machine that made it and exists nowhere else. No client cache migration. The item table's primary key and the outbox's unique index already carry the entity type, and AadResourceTypes already mapped SshKey — so a host and a key may share an id and never see each other's rows, which SshKeySyncTests now arranges deliberately. A key hands the server nothing in plaintext. There is a public_key_fingerprint column and it would be accepted; leaving it null is deliberate. A fingerprint is not secret but it is a stable identifier for a key pair, so filling it would let an operator tell which of their users hold the same key and correlate one across vaults, for a column nothing reads. The design allows itself one plaintext concession — the relay address, which the relay cannot work without — and this is not that. A key is chosen per connection rather than bound to a host, which works the way ssh -i does. Binding one needs a field on HostSecret and therefore a payload schema bump, which makes every host written afterwards read-only on an older build; worth doing deliberately rather than as a side effect of adding keys. Three things this found, all of them by being falsified rather than by review: - Making the reconciler generic silently turned a record comparison into reference equality, because == on a type parameter is not value equality. The effect would have been a conflict recorded on every pass for an unacknowledged create that had in fact landed. Sabotaging the fix left all 73 tests passing — nothing covered that branch — so ConflictMatrixTests now has AnUnacknowledgedCreateThatDidLand_IsDroppedQuietly, which fails without it. - A test asserting that a blank passphrase reaches SSH.NET as null was vacuous: it exercised the editor, not the credential path, and passed with the guard deleted. Resolved by making SshKeySecret.Passphrase normalise an empty string to null, so there is one spelling of one state — which also keeps two clients from producing different payload bytes for an identical key. That exposed a wider gap: SshKeySecret, its codec and its merge had no direct unit tests at all. They have 25 now. - The reason first given for that normalisation was false. It claimed SSH.NET rejects a passphrase supplied for an unprotected key; measured against a real sshd it ignores it and authenticates anyway. Corrected everywhere it was stated and recorded in docs/platform-flags.md. The same test file also closes a real hole: SshPrivateKeyCredential had never been exercised against a server, because the existing key test builds SSH.NET's auth method directly and bypasses the path a vault-held key actually takes. Only one editor may be open at a time. Both sit in the same 340-pixel column as Auto rows and their heights together exceed it at the window's minimum size, so two open editors put the lower one's Save and Cancel past the bottom edge — the same failure this window already shipped once with the setup screens. Expressed as a state rule because that is the only form of it this repository can check: nothing here loads a .axaml. The refusal keeps what was typed, since in the key editor that is a pasted private key the user may have nowhere else. The end-to-end slice now carries a key as well as a host, so both item types go through the real API, the real PostgreSQL and the real crypto in one pass — the three hand-kept mappings between enums that do not line up are the reason that is worth doing rather than trusting the unit suites. 735 tests green, including the container-backed SSH and end-to-end suites. Zero warnings, dotnet format clean.	2026-07-29 20:27:23 +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.	2026-07-29 11:02:19 +02:00
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
