Design correction discovered by the auth chicken-and-egg: the
decorator-level refusal was re-created a convention gate (plan B
thinking). ScopedDB now NEVER refuses — it declares the GUC when the
context carries an identity and declares nothing otherwise; the ENGINE
is the fail-loud layer (policies raise on governed tables, ungoverned
tables like auth lookups simply work). rls.WithInternal removed as a
dead concept.
- search service's raw DBTX path now receives the ScopedDB itself
(main.go + harness) — a bare pool bypassed the GUC.
- database/schema.go: migration tx declares a synthetic identity
(schema.sql's dedup DO block SELECTs media_items; with policies
live, boot 2 raised 'unrecognized configuration parameter' — A11).
- harness: TestServerSetup.DB is a raw-pool SEED handle (write
policies permissive, other seeded tables ungoverned); the server
under test keeps the scoped wiring. 33 CreateMediaItem sites use
seedCtx() — a seed identity with no visibility rows — because
RETURNING requires SELECT visibility of the new row.
- invariant test: regex UUID-scraping replaced with a structured JSON
decode of the sections payload.
INTERRUPTION NOTE: an edit to this same effect (seedCtx) was applied,
confirmed by the tool, and subsequently vanished from disk while an
'opencode serve' process (PID 84551) is alive on the machine. This
commit pins the tree against further loss; implementation is PAUSED
pending the user killing that process.
Phase 3 of the RLS plan, pinned mid-flight because a parallel writer
was actively editing cmd/server/tests/rls_visibility_test.go (A14):
the file flip-flopped between two implementations and gained a compile
error after the previous commit. This snapshot makes the whole tree
compile; functional verification (two-boot gate, invariant green,
full suite) lands in the next commit(s).
- internal/rls: typed ctx keys — user identity (bridged from echo by
the router) and an INTERNAL marker whose semantics grant nothing:
no GUC is declared, so policy'd tables still raise at the engine;
only RLS-ungoverned tables (system_settings, users counts) work for
user-less startup paths (settings registry Load, CountAdmins).
- internal/database/scoped.go: DBTX decorator — per-statement tx,
commit-on-Close (:many) / commit-on-Scan (:one), error paths always
terminate the tx, refusal before SQL when no identity and not
internal.
- database/schema/schema.sql: idempotent policy block (DROP IF EXISTS
+ CREATE — schema.sql re-runs every boot): ENABLE + FORCE, read
policy exactly mirroring COALESCE(is_visible,true), permissive
per-command write stand-ins (FOR ALL would OR into SELECT).
- router.go: RLS bridge at BOTH c.Set("user") sites (JWT + device
auth) — echo-local storage never reaches the stdlib ctx.
- main.go + test harness: database.New over ScopedDB at both wiring
sites; startup reads use rls.WithInternal.
