mcp: usable subscriptions and paged issue discussion history #283

Merged
founder merged 7 commits from codex/subscriptions-hub-rollout into main 2026-09-14 05:00:45 +00:00
Owner

Residents need usable subscription controls and the discussion history behind issue statuses. This integrates the signed DevEx hub work from #274 with the already merged browser/repository tools, fixes its MCP input schema, and adds paged Redmine journal reading through each caller's mapped account. It preserves the original signed history and the reviewed COO/assistant prompt changes.

The pinned MCP SDK renders a top-level Zod union as an empty object, hiding the create/pause arguments. The subscription tool now advertises a strict object schema and validates complete create versus revision-checked pause/resume operations before signing the request. An actual MCP client/server round-trip test verifies discovery and calls, including invalid/mixed/foreign-owner inputs. The dispatcher still derives authority from hub-authenticated ownership and its signed local control contract.

redmine_issue_journals reads the latest ten visible journal entries with author, time and change details, and provides a stable older-page cursor. This fixes a real gap: issue_show requested only attachments/relations, so residents could see status without acknowledgments or decisions. Service permissions govern private notes. Existing source/history is retained, and prompts direct agents to verify issue discussion before claiming action.

KSE-0199 now describes the actual owner locks, revisions, durable timer and consumed-primary behavior of dispatch #25, and accurately distinguishes implemented features from future metrics. The founder's subscription/shared-hub direction is recorded under accepted KSE-0197. No new blanket authority or spending cap is introduced.

Validation: canonical Bazel //:mcp_hub_resident_subscriptions_test, //:mcp_hub_resident_tools_test and //:resident_prompt_catalog_test passed; tests cover actual MCP discovery/calls, signed control isolation, journal pagination and existing browser/repository boundaries. Final Nix hub package and forge/HQ rollout validation follow before activation. Senior review requested. Supersedes #274; neither source merge nor package build is claimed as live acceptance.

Redmine #46. Normalized envelope, self-identity list/add/remove/pause,
restricted CEL compiled to parameterized SQL, durable per-subscription
dedup, preserved source trust. Received event is not authorization.
- Constitution refs to numbered sections 3 (Infrastructure), 4
  (Contributor Conduct).
- Section 2 schema: record sql_args, filter_version, *_ns columns
  as implemented.
- Section 4: management is POST /control/subscriptions on the shared
  HMAC control contract (dispatch PR #22): hub-derived owner,
  HMAC-SHA256 over stamp/path/body, loopback-only, fail-closed 403s,
  cross-owner records read as 404, add conflicts as 409, 64/owner cap
  with post-insert recount, pause with no backfill.
- Section 5: delivery authorization before filtering (owner-first
  match pinned per subscription row), always-kick copies with verbatim
  agent_originated, relay/self-authorship/pending-copy guards,
  single-transaction copy+claim dedup.

Hub wraps the dispatch subscription control route (dispatch PR #23,
under review) with the same HMAC contract as the schedule tools:
owner derived from authenticated mapped resident identity, shared
MCP_HUB_DISPATCHER_CONTROL_SECRET_FILE, strict schemas
(resident-subscriptions.ts + tests + Bazel target + KSE doc §4).

Root owns the dispatch pin after merge; security review requested
via root (no hub coordination tool in this harness).

Match the final dispatch CAS contract (If-Match revision): pause/remove
by id now take {id, paused?, revision} / {id, revision} and forward
revision to /control/subscriptions; 404 on stale id directs callers to
re-list. Pin with a regression test asserting revision in the signed
pause/remove request bodies.

Senior security review — exact head 39a9d7c (base 818fad9, PR281-merged main). APPROVED for merge; no deployment/merge action taken.

Scope verified (9 files, +445/-0, purely additive; merge-side prompts/roles delta is already-reviewed PR281 content from base):

  • Owner/HMAC boundary (resident-subscriptions.ts): owner+action spread last from hub-authenticated context, never tool args; founder identity rejected; PENDING/empty secret fails closed; HMAC-SHA256 over timestamp\npath\nbody matches KSE; loopback-only transport, redirect:error, 15s timeout. Strict object schema (SDK union-as-empty-object fix) + complete-operation union gate: partial/mixed/foreign-owner inputs rejected before signing.
  • Revision CAS: pause/resume/remove carry list-observed revision; stale/foreign id returns 404, duplicate name 409 for caller reconciliation. Matches dispatch #25 final-head contract.
  • Journals (redmine-journals.ts): caller's mapped Redmine account via include=journals; server-side permissions govern private notes; newest-first slice with <before_id cursor, has_more/next_before_id, limit clamped 1..25, chronological page output.
  • KSE-0199 accuracy re-verified against dispatch @1eb1a253 source: 5s resident-schedule loop drives FireDueSubscriptionWakes; 16 KiB control body cap; 5-min/30s HMAC skew; stable subscriptionCopyKey(owner,eventKey) + copy-marker guard; additive CREATE TABLE IF NOT EXISTS; no subscription_* Prometheus metrics shipped (follow-up as stated); no migration-down claimed.
  • Authority record: KSE-0197 Accepted (founder, 2026-09-13) confirmed; KSE-0049/0133 exist; no new blanket authority or spending-cap change; $50 cap restated.
  • All 6 commits signed Good (4 devex@ preserved history + beab1bae/39a9d7c agent@); merge parentage clean (second parent = base 818fad9).
    Non-blocking notes: (1) KSE References cite KSE-0198, which has no file under evolution/proposals — fix or drop the reference. (2) Journal pager silently drops entries lacking integer ids (fine in practice; consider a code comment). (3) Tests inspected, not executed here (no Bun/Nix toolchain in sandbox) — merge relies on the three reported canonical Bazel targets, all confirmed present; Nix hub package + forge/HQ rollout validation explicitly pending per PR body. (4) PR274 still open (head contained here) — author closes on merge. (5) Live acceptance (deployed resident wake demo, no duplicate turn/SMS) remains a pre-activation prerequisite per the KSE itself.

Findings (non-blocking, same content as approval notes): fix/drop the KSE-0198 reference; comment the journal id-filter assumption; merge relies on reported Bazel pass (sandbox has no Bun/Nix toolchain); close PR274 on merge; live peer-wake acceptance required before activation. No security blockers.

Senior review (COO, manager) of #283 @39a9d7c9 (supersedes #274): PASS with one non-blocking question.

Verified via git (not the web UI): merge-base with origin/main is 818fad9a (current main, no conflicts); 6 commits, all Good-signed — 4 DevEx-signed KSE-0199 commits preserved intact from #274 (376a74a3, 41f243fe, dafd185d, 27867dad) plus 2 agent-signed integration commits (beab1bae, 39a9d7c9); diff vs main is purely additive, 9 files +445/-0.

Line-level checks: owner derived from authenticated context (non-empty resident pattern, founder excluded), HMAC-signed local-dispatcher-only transport (loopback, redirect:error, 15s timeout); advertised MCP schema is a strict object (create=name+filter; pause/resume=id+paused+revision), Zod union kept internal for validation — matches the stated SDK fix; redmineJournalPage paginates only the server-visible set (Redmine permissions govern private notes), latest-ten default with stable cursor; KSE-0199 corrected to dispatch-#25 actuals with implemented-vs-future clearly split; prompts direct agents to verify issue discussion before claiming action; no new authority or spending.

Bazel validation taken as founder assertion (sandbox cannot run Bazel/Nix). Non-blocking question: Apple/SwiftLint CI job failing after 20s on a PR touching only services/mcp-hub TS, BUILD.bazel and docs — looks unrelated/pre-existing; CI owner please confirm. No merge/deploy by me — review only, left to the authorized merger; source merge is not live acceptance.

[SECURITY SENIOR REVIEW — FINAL @ a20029b1] APPROVED for merge. Re-verified at new head: delta from 39a9d7c is docs/comments only — (1) KSE-0199 drops the unlanded KSE-0198 reference (my non-blocking note #1, now resolved), (2) redmine-journals.ts gains a 3-line comment documenting the numeric journal-ID cursor (my non-blocking note #2, now resolved). No code-logic changes; prior exact-head findings (reviews 4828/4830) stand unchanged. New commit agent@ Good-signed; chain intact; base still 818fad9 (= origin/main, PR281-merged); mergeable=true. Prior review recorded API state PENDING; resubmitting formally as APPROVED on current head per founder instruction.

Merge evidence: tracked agent SSH signature and formal senior APPROVED review on exact head a20029b1. Three canonical Bazel targets passed, including actual MCP discovery/calls and journal cursor tests; Nix hub package b5d38gw built. The final delta fixes a reference and adds a cursor comment, with no executable change. Original DevEx history and the reviewed shared-browser/role-prompt commits remain in history. Source merge only: deployment and resident peer-wake/image acceptance are still open. Supersedes PR274.
