jaap-jan a0568d4c35 Merge branch 'main' into the vaults screen, and let it rotate keys too
Main built vault key rotation while this branch was reshaping the screen that
would drive it, so the two met in the same three files. Every other conflict was
textual and resolved by taking both; these are the ones where a decision had to
be made.

**The view model.** Main taught TeamsViewModel three things and this branch had
renamed and rewritten it into VaultsViewModel. All three are ported rather than
dropped, because each is a behaviour rather than wording: adding somebody now
wraps the vault to them on the spot instead of leaving SHARE KEY to be pressed,
removing somebody rotates the vault and hands the new key to whoever is left, and
a share reports how many generations were wrapped. The session calls they reach —
ShareTeamVaultsAsync and RekeyTeamVaultsAsync — are scoped to a membership list
rather than to one vault, and they are called that way here rather than narrowed:
adding somebody is a change to the list, so every vault the list carries is one
they can now fetch. This screen makes lists that carry one vault, so the sentences
name one; where a list carries several, naming them all is the honest report, and
the members section already says the list is shared.

AddMemberAsync ran two lines over the length limit once the sharing was in it, so
the calls behind it moved to AddOrInviteAsync and the three-way refusal to
WhyNobodyCanBeAdded — the command reads as its guards now, which is what it was
before the sharing arrived.

**The tests.** Main's four new cases are ported to the vault-first API, including
the one that matters most: the tampered key log is corrupted *before* the add,
because the add is now a route to a wrap and a test that corrupted it afterwards
would be asserting about the manual route only. SelectingAVault_ListsWhoHoldsAKey
now expects two holders rather than one — main's fake records the creator's own
self-grant, and a key-holder list that omitted it would show the one person who
can certainly open a new vault as somebody who cannot.

**The README.** The limits list is six rather than four or five: main's rotation
entries and this branch's "a vault cannot be deleted" describe different things
and both are true. "The rekey is flagged, never performed" is gone, since it is
now performed, and M3 reads *Done* rather than *Done, except rekey*.

One thing worth writing down that neither side had. An invitation claimed at
sign-in still leaves the key owed, where an add does not: at the moment an
invitation is issued there is no account and no published key to wrap to, and the
claim happens on the invitee's machine, which holds nothing. Manual check 12.1
says so, because a reader who knows adding shares would otherwise read that step
as stale.

1561 tests pass.

jaap-jan 8707629a6c Make the vault the thing you share, and ask a host which one it lives in
The teams screen listed teams that owned vaults, so sharing four servers with two
colleagues meant creating a team, then a vault inside it, then wrapping a key.
Two of those three steps are about a concept nobody arrives wanting. The screen
now lists vaults: naming one creates the membership list that carries it, named
after the vault and owned by you, and members, invitations, roles, hand-over and
key holders all hang off the vault they apply to.

Nothing on the server moved. VaultAccessService still resolves a shared vault
through team_membership and every membership call still names a team id — what
went is the requirement that anybody make one. The split the whole design rests
on is untouched and is still what the screen is built around: adding somebody
authorises the server to serve them, and only a machine holding the key can make
the vault readable. ADR 0009 keeps its decision and gains an addendum recording
which half of it a person is now asked about.

The one place the team resurfaces is a membership list carrying several vaults,
which this screen cannot produce and does not hide: the members section says so,
because "adding somebody here adds them there" is precisely the fact a
vault-shaped screen is in a position to conceal.

Two things left the interface and one arrived. Creating a team is gone, and so is
archiving one — it was only ever possible for a team owning no vaults, and a
screen whose rows are vaults has no row for one, so the button would have been
unreachable or always refused. The endpoint is unchanged and the screen states
the limit instead, since a vault cannot be deleted at all. The exception is a
create whose second call failed: cancelling that form archives the membership
list it left behind, which is a deliberate departure from this client's rule
against tidying up on the user's behalf, made because nothing else can reach it.

What arrived is PUT /api/v1/vaults/{id}. Without it the screen loses its only
editing action, since renaming the team behind a vault is invisible to everybody
who was never shown the team. It is gated on PermissionFlags.Admin — the line
UpdateTeamEndpoint already draws, because a name is what everybody in the vault
sees it called rather than part of its contents — and it renames the owning team
with it when that team carries nothing else, so the row an operator reads and the
name a user says cannot drift apart. The slug never moves, for the reason it does
not move on a team rename. The session edits its cached vault row rather than
replacing it with the response, which deliberately carries no wrapped key.

The host editor now asks which vault a host goes into, beside the name, while
adding and only where there is more than one vault to write to. It is a second
picker rather than the keychain screen's reused, and the two selections are
separate on purpose: that one is a standing preference about where new items go,
this is a field of the host in front of you, and binding both to one selection
would mean a click on the other screen could move a half-typed host. An existing
host is not offered it at all rather than offered it disabled — the two vaults
are encrypted under different keys, so moving an item is a delete and a retype.

That forced a fix worth naming. The group picker was built from the active
vault's groups whatever vault the host was being filed into, so a host put in a
shared vault could be filed under a group only its author can resolve — a
colleague would see it filed under nothing, which is the quietest kind of wrong.
Groups are now kept per vault and the picker follows the vault choice.

Two renames, because the pair they would otherwise have made is a bug farm:
ShellScreen.Vault became Keychain and VaultScreen became KeychainScreen, which is
what the rail has always labelled that screen, leaving Vault for one vault's
contents and Vaults for the vaults themselves. The enum values are unchanged;
NavRail.axaml writes them as x:Static literals.

1536 tests pass, seven more than before. Five are new on the server — the rename
endpoint's success, the team it does and does not take with it, the two refusals
and the empty name — and the client suite gains six and folds four together,
having lost the two about archiving a team.

jaap-jan d5b1a73182 Move the keys when a membership changes, not just the flag
Adding somebody to a team granted them nothing readable and removing them
rotated nothing. Both were honest — the interface said so in as many words — and
both left the actual work to a button somebody had to remember to press, on a
machine that happened to hold the key. Adding now wraps every team vault this
machine can open to the new member, and removing revokes their grants and moves
each of those vaults to a fresh key that goes to whoever is left.

The rotation is where the design had to be decided rather than written. A vault
key is per generation and an item carries the generation it was sealed under, so
advancing the vault and withdrawing the old grants would make everything already
stored unreadable to everybody, including whoever pressed the button. So earlier
grants are kept: a member holds one per generation, /me serves them as
PriorKeyWraps, and VaultKeyring holds a key per generation — the newest for
writing, the item's own for reading, chosen per item on every read path. Sharing
issues one grant per generation held, because a recipient handed only the current
key would open the vault to find most of it undecryptable; revocation takes every
generation, because leaving the history behind leaves them able to read
everything written before the rotation.

The bump itself is one server transaction. POST /vaults/{id}/rekey must name
exactly current + 1 and the vault's xmin token makes that binding, so two admins
rotating at once do not both walk away believing they succeeded — the second is
refused and told to read the vault again. The server contributes the moment and
no cryptography: it cannot generate the key, cannot tell that the one it is
handed differs from the old one, and checks that the caller held the old one the
only way it can, by requiring a live grant at the current generation.

What this does not do is re-encrypt what is already stored, and the product says
so rather than the reassuring version: everything written from the rotation
onwards is unreadable to the person who left, and nothing about the past changes.
That half is deferred and is safe to add incrementally precisely because a vault
at mixed generations stays readable. ADR 0010 records the alternatives — revoking
the old grants, chaining each key under its successor, re-sealing every item in
one request against a server that caps a push at 500 operations — and why each
was rejected.

Two things fell out of the change rather than being asked for. The grant listing
would have shown a member once per generation, so it now returns one row per
holder carrying the best key they hold, which is what makes a row below the
vault's generation mean "still owed the new key". And MarkUnreadable gives up the
write target as well as reporting: a client whose vault was rotated elsewhere
would otherwise have gone on sealing items under its superseded key — readable to
its author, unreadable to everybody else, with nothing to show for it.

jaap-janandClaude Opus 5 a43286ece8 Let a team change hands, and be joined by somebody with no account yet
M3 built teams and stopped short of the two operations that decide who
controls one. Both were written down as refusals rather than omissions:
ADR 0009 listed ownership transfer under "deliberately not built", and
design-import-gaps said an invitation needed "a token with a lifetime and an
outbound mail path". One of those reasons had expired and the other never
applied — an invitation does not need a token if it is not a thing anybody
presents.

Handing a team over is one write. The member you name becomes owner and you
become an admin, in a single transaction, because ownership is sole: promoting
first leaves the team owned twice, demoting first leaves it owned by nobody,
and there is nobody left with the authority to finish a transfer that stopped
in the middle. That is also why it is not two calls to the role endpoint, which
refuses Owner outright. The outgoing owner is demoted rather than removed —
removing them would revoke their vault key grants and flag every team vault for
rekey, which is a far larger act than the one asked for, and somebody handing
over a team is usually staying in it. It unblocks the thing that was impossible
before: an owner can now leave, by handing the team on first.

An invitation is a standing instruction rather than a message. This server has
no outbound mail path, so nothing is sent and there is nothing for the invitee
to present. The row says the next account signing in with that address joins
this team at this role, and telling them to sign in is the caller's job over a
channel this server does not carry. A link nobody can deliver would be worse
than none. It lives in its own table rather than becoming a membership with
MembershipStatus.Invited, and that member stays unwritten for the reason it
always was: team_membership.user_id is not nullable and carries a foreign key,
so somebody who has never signed in has nothing for that row to point at.
Widening it would make the unique index on (team, user) meaningless, because
PostgreSQL counts every NULL as distinct.

Verification is the security boundary, and nothing in this server read it
before. A claim requires the access token to assert email_verified. An
invitation decides what the server will serve, so one claimable by anybody able
to obtain a token carrying somebody else's address is a way into a team — which
is precisely the attack OidcOptions.AllowEmailLinking exists to refuse, and it
would have been reintroduced by the back door. There is deliberately no setting
that relaxes it: a flag that exists is one somebody turns on for the afternoon
their provider is misconfigured. Absence is refused rather than trusted, and
logged, because a provider that never sends the claim otherwise leaves every
invitation pending with nothing anywhere saying why.

Claiming happens at just-in-time provisioning and again on an hourly sweep. The
sweep is what makes it recoverable rather than one-shot — an invitation issued
between an account being created and that person next signing in would
otherwise be stranded for ever — and it shares its rate with the last-seen
write because both are housekeeping nobody is waiting on.

Archiving is refused while a team owns a vault, and that refusal is the end of
the road rather than a step on it. A team vault is readable because of
membership, so archiving one that still owned vaults would take them away from
everybody holding a key, including the caller, quietly and all at once. Nothing
in this product deletes a vault, so no order of operations gets past it today —
which is stated with a count of what is in the way, for the reason the SFTP
layer refuses a recursive delete: a refusal is visible and a quiet removal is
not. It is owner-only, as handing over is; renaming is not, because a rename is
visible to everybody and reversible by anybody who can do it. The slug is not
renameable at all: it is unique only among live teams, so a rename could take
one an archived team is still holding, and that team could then never be
restored.

LAST ACTIVE is real and coarse on purpose. UserAccount.LastSeenAtUtc is
refreshed on ordinary authenticated requests, at most once per account per
hour, through ExecuteUpdateAsync — user_account carries the xmin concurrency
token, so a read-then-write on the hot path would start losing races between
one user's own overlapping requests. An hour is the granularity the question is
actually asked at, and the interface draws it to the day rather than the minute
so it does not read as a precision that is not there. The remarks in Contracts
and in the view model that argued at length for the column's absence are
rewritten rather than extended; both had become false.

Two endpoints already existed and nothing called them. ChangeTeamMemberRole and
ListVaultGrants have been reachable since M3. The role picker refuses Owner
itself rather than letting the server do it, since the interface already knew
the rule; the key-holder list sits under the vault rather than beside the
member, because a grant is per vault and a count on a member row would imply
per-item sharing, which is M5. It lists withdrawn and stale grants and says
which they are — a list that dropped them would show a departed colleague as
merely absent rather than as somebody whose key was taken away — and staleness
is decided by comparing generations, since a grant can be Active and still open
nothing.

ADD MEMBER stopped being a dead end. An address the directory did not know used
to end at a sentence telling the user their colleague had to sign in first. It
invites them instead, from the same button, because which of the two applies is
a fact about the server's account table rather than about what the user is
doing; which one happened is reported afterwards, because that decides what
they do next. An address that merely has an account is invited rather than
refused: refusing would have made the endpoint an oracle for which addresses
have accounts here, answerable by anybody willing to create a team first.

The phone has a TEAMS screen, behind MORE, and it is the reverse of every other
row in design-import-gaps: a shipped screen the design had no slot for. It is
there because an invitation is claimed by signing in, so somebody told they are
now in a team is at least as likely to be holding a phone — and a membership
visible only on a head they never installed is one they cannot see. It draws
SHARE KEY and nothing that takes something away: wrapping a key is the one act
on that screen a server cannot perform at all, and the desktop guards its
revocations with a tooltip, which is a control a touch screen cannot show.

Two defects were found by an adversarial pass and both were green against the
whole suite at the time. The owner-only check on archiving and handing over had
been weakened to the admin check while their messages and comments still said
owner — and since nothing behind the archive endpoint re-checks it, an admin
the owner had promoted could have archived the team out from under them. And
the rename endpoint built its response with a hardcoded Owner role, so an admin
who renamed a team was handed a summary claiming they owned it, and a client
trusting that instead of re-listing would have offered them the two owner-only
buttons the server then refuses.

The new table gets its constraints tested rather than merely migrated: live
uniqueness per (team, address), the citext proof that an address typed by a
person matches one cased by a provider, and reissue after both revocation and
acceptance. The teams screen gets its first entries in the layout suite, at the
minimum window with every list populated and with each of the two states that
cover half of it — it had none, and it just grew four sections and a second
line in the member row.

jaap-janandClaude Opus 5 093f3904c1 Apply pending migrations at startup instead of asking for a second command
ci / build and test (push) Failing after 1m48s
ci / api image (push) Skipped
ci / android head (push) Failing after 5s
The API deliberately never migrated: it failed readiness while a migration was pending and
named it, and a separate step applied them. That is the right split for a deployment with a
release pipeline and the wrong one for a self-hosted server, where it means an image that
boots, refuses traffic, and waits for somebody to know that dotnet ef exists. The schema and
the code that expects it ship in the same image, so the image is where the two are
reconciled now.

Before RunAsync rather than in the background. A migration racing the first requests would
let them through against a half-applied schema, and the first authenticated request is the
one that provisions accounts. Failing to migrate therefore fails to start, which is the
loudest signal available and the one an orchestrator already acts on.

Concurrent starts take a Postgres advisory lock first. Without it two replicas rolled out
together read the same empty history table, both apply the same migration, and the second
dies on an object that already exists — a crash loop on the day of a schema change, which
is the worst day to have one. The lock is held on a connection of its own because EF opens
and closes one per command, and a session lock belongs to the connection that took it.

The exception is a database that does not exist yet: there is nothing to hold a lock in, so
that path migrates without one and says so. Two instances creating it at once still
converges — one wins, the other restarts into the ordinary locked path — and refusing to
start would leave a fresh deployment stuck on the step this removes.

Database:AutoMigrate turns it off for the deployments that own their schema: a migrator job,
a rollout where new code must run against the old schema first, or a database user denied
DDL. With it off the behaviour is exactly what it was, and the health check now explains
which of the two situations a pending migration means.

Verified against a throwaway PostgreSQL container: an empty database gets all seven
migrations applied before the port opens, the tables land in the dodo schema, and a second
start logs the schema up to date and serves. The API suite passes, which exercises the
startup path once per assembly.

jaap-jan 95816de0c5 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.

jaap-jan 9bc28f1c0f 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.

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.

jaap-jan a628762cd1 Add /me and enrollment with the identity-provider key binding (M1)
The last backend piece of M1. A client can now log in, discover it must
enroll, publish its identity key, and get a usable personal vault.

Enrollment is one indivisible act. One transaction writes the key, its
wraps, the device, the key log entry, the vault and the vault key grant,
because none of them is useful alone: a key with no vault leaves a user
unable to store anything, and a vault with no grant is a container nobody
can ever open -- including its owner, since only the client can wrap the
key and it has already moved on.

Two independent checks run, and neither substitutes for the other. The
Ed25519 self-signature proves possession of the private key. The
identity-provider binding proves whose key it is: the client hashed its
statement, used the hash as an OIDC nonce, and the resulting ID token is
the provider's signature over exactly those public keys. This server
cannot mint that signature, so it cannot invent a key for a user who never
enrolled -- which is the attack that would otherwise let an operator read
every vault by publishing its own key as yours.

The binding token is stored verbatim, not just summarised. Clients must
repeat the check against the provider's JWKS fetched directly, and storing
only our conclusion would ask them to trust the server about the one
question the design exists to avoid trusting it about.

Key log appends take a deployment-wide advisory lock. The falsification
matters more than the passing test: with the lock removed,
Enroll_ConcurrentEnrollmentsByDifferentUsers_LeaveAnUnbrokenChain fails
with entry 11 linked to the wrong predecessor. Different users trip no
unique index, so without serialising they all read the same head and the
chain forks -- indistinguishable from the key substitution the log exists
to make detectable, and permanent, because the log is append-only.

Enrollment is idempotent. Vault ids and keys are client-chosen, so a
client whose response was lost re-sends the identical body and gets the
identical result. Without that, a lost response leaves a user enrolled
against a vault they never learned the id of.

Contract change, breaking the v0.1 freeze deliberately. EnrollmentRequest
had DevicePublicKey but no wrap to go with it, which is unsatisfiable:
only the holder of the secret bundle can seal it, so the server could
never fill the gap. Added DeviceWrappedPrivateKey, and PersonalVault so
enrollment can be atomic rather than leaving an unopenable vault behind
two endpoints that do not exist yet. No client exists and no package is
published, which is exactly when PublicAPI.Unshipped.txt expects this.

Sync now requires the Enrolled policy, which until now was a stub whose
name promised a check it never made. The sync denial tests use enrolled
intruders instead of unenrolled ones -- an unenrolled caller is stopped
before the vault check runs, which would have left those tests passing
without exercising the thing they exist to prove.

Also fixed: omitting kdfParameters from the JSON body was a 500. A
record's non-nullable parameters are a compile-time promise, not a runtime
one.

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

jaap-jan 3829217e8a Add sync engine: cursors, push/pull, and the advisory-lock ordering proof (M1)
The vault write path. Push is the only way items change — no per-entity POST/PUT/DELETE —
so one place enforces revisions, the change log and access control.

The concurrency hazard, now proven rather than asserted:
bigserial assigns sequence values when the INSERT runs, not at commit, so transaction A
can take sequence 5 while B takes 6 and commits first. A reader polling in between sees
only 6, advances past 5, and never learns about it. AdvisoryLockOrderingTests reproduces
that gap WITHOUT the lock first — otherwise the with-lock test proves nothing, since it
would pass just as happily if the interleaving never occurred — then shows
pg_advisory_xact_lock removes it, and that 12 concurrent writers produce no gaps.

Cursors are opaque and HMAC-tagged, and carry their vault id. 29 unit tests cover the
rejections, which are the point: an accepted-but-wrong cursor is silent data loss, strictly
worse than an error a client can resync from. Rejected: tampered tag, tampered payload,
foreign signing key, a legitimately-issued cursor from another vault, truncation, and
hostile input (never throws — cursors come from clients).

Push semantics:
- 200 even on partial failure, with per-operation status, so one stale item cannot block
  everything a client queued while offline.
- Conflict returns the server's current row for client-side three-way merge. The server
  cannot merge ciphertext, so never last-writer-wins.
- opId receipts make retries exactly-once per operation, not per batch — a client retrying
  a partially-overlapping batch after a timeout would otherwise double-apply what landed.
- A tombstone beats a late upsert, and delete clears hostname/port: leaving the address
  would keep the server able to resolve a host the user believes they deleted.
- Relay field validation mirrors the DB CHECK so a bad request is a clear Invalid rather
  than a constraint violation surfacing as a 500.

Authorization goes through IVaultAccessService, which returns the same answer for "absent"
and "forbidden" — distinguishing them is an existence oracle for other tenants' vault ids.
Team vaults are explicitly denied until M3 rather than falling through to a permissive
default. JIT provisioning keys on (issuer, subject), never email, and handles the
concurrent-first-request race via the unique index.

Renamed two domain types: Host -> SshHost, because Host collides with
Microsoft.Extensions.Hosting.Host in every file of a web project, and SyncChange ->
VaultChange to stop it colliding with the Contracts DTO of the same name. Aliasing at every
use site would have been permanent friction.

Worth noting: `ef migrations has-pending-model-changes` reported clean after those renames
even though the snapshot still said "DodoSSH.Domain.Host" — it diffs tables, not CLR type
names. The snapshot was regenerated and the emitted DDL diffed against the previous
artifacts/schema/v0.1.sql to confirm the rename produced no schema change.

Also removed ConfigureAwait(false) from test methods: xUnit1030 flags it as bypassing
parallelization limits, which is why MA0004 is suppressed in test projects.

Verified: 0 warnings on a clean rebuild, 146 tests pass (up from 122), format clean.

Endpoint-level tests are the immediate next step: they need a WireMock OIDC/JWKS stub and
real JWT minting, so the "wrong user is denied" matrix does not exist yet for these two
routes. The service-layer authorization and the concurrency property are covered.

jaap-jan d3b14e6bc0 Add configuration, OIDC auth wiring and discovery endpoints (M1)
Options, JWT bearer validation, the /meta and .well-known endpoints, and a dev compose
stack with Keycloak. Verified end to end: compose up, migrate, run, both discovery
endpoints return correct payloads, and readiness reports the schema current.

Configuration:
- Strongly-typed options for Server, Oidc, Relay and Sync, all ValidateOnStart. A
  self-hosted server that boots half-configured and fails later per-request is far harder
  to diagnose than one that refuses to start and names the bad setting.
- Cross-field validation the annotations cannot express: relay needs a WebSocketUrl when
  enabled, idle timeout must be under max session duration, item payload cap under batch cap.
- Startup warnings for combinations that are individually valid but dangerous together:
  RequireHttpsMetadata false outside Development, and AllowEmailLinking (which turns any
  token bearing a victim's email into account takeover, hence default false).

Auth:
- JwtBearer with ClockSkew cut to 30s from the 5-minute default; five minutes of slack on a
  credential granting vault ciphertext access is more than any clock needs.
- IncludeErrorDetails off, and a FallbackPolicy so an endpoint without an explicit policy
  still requires a caller rather than silently being public.

Discovery, per ADR 0002:
- /api/v1/meta reports versions, features and push caps.
- /.well-known/dodossh-configuration is the onboarding story: the user types one server URL
  and the client discovers OIDC authority, client id, scopes and relay endpoint.

Two environment problems found by actually running the stack:
- PostgreSQL 18 changed its data mount point. Mounting /var/lib/postgresql/data — correct
  through 17 — makes the image refuse to start; 18+ wants a single mount at
  /var/lib/postgresql with the cluster in a subdirectory.
- Keycloak moved to host port 18080. An unrelated Apache Tomcat on this machine holds
  127.0.0.1:8080, and a loopback-specific bind beats Docker's 0.0.0.0 publish for
  "localhost". It presents as Keycloak 404ing every realm while its own log says the import
  succeeded, which is a genuinely misleading failure.

Also: CA1848 is enforced, not advisory — warnings are errors, so the .editorconfig comment
claiming otherwise was wrong. Startup and health logging now uses [LoggerMessage]. And a
clean rebuild is back to zero warnings; the incremental build had been hiding 40 in test
projects (banned Guid.NewGuid, an obsolete Testcontainers constructor, and two analyzer
families that are genuinely noise under a test host).

Verified: 0 warnings on a clean rebuild, 122 tests pass, 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.
