a commander's bound is a rule, not a list
the allow list shipped an hour ago was a snapshot. plugin permissions
register at mount, so a plugin installed after a commander was created was
missing from its list and failed as a bare 403 with nothing saying why —
and every future thing a commander is meant to do is exactly that shape:
notify a device, send mail, spawn a sub-agent, hand a transcription to an
idle one, reach a plugin that does not exist yet.
so a credential now narrows two ways, and both only subtract:
permissions an ALLOW list. exact, a snapshot. right for a credential
with one job.
excludedKinds kinds it may never reach, resolved against the LIVE
registry on every request. right for a credential whose
job is open-ended.
a commander gets the second: every kind except admin. bounded away from
installing plugins, managing users and roles and changing server settings,
forever — and open to everything the platform learns to do, with nothing
to re-issue. still intersected with the account, so for a member it
narrows itself against their role.
verified against the running server with a commander-shaped key: tasks,
notify, file-browser and the transcribe PLUGIN all reach their routes;
/api/users, /api/plugins and /api/roles are 403. the plugin case is the
one an allow list could not have passed — it was mounted long after any
key was minted.
the commander's CLAUDE.md says what it cannot do in the rule's own terms,
and that a 403 is an answer rather than a problem to route around.

a credential can be narrower than its holder
a commander is an agent working unattended for months, and the only
credential in the tree lived in the MCP tool server's environment where
the agent's own shell cannot see it. so the first one built here curled
the whisper container directly on localhost: right answer, wrong door, and
a door the platform does not control.
api_keys.permissions. null is what every key a human minted still is —
their full authority, exactly what the password that made it could do. a
list narrows: the credential reaches only those permission keys, and still
only where the account itself could. intersection, never union.
checked BEFORE the owner bypass, which is the whole point. a Super Admin
consults no grants table, so a token carrying the owner's identity is
unbounded by construction — fine for a browser session somebody is sitting
in front of, not fine for a process that runs for months. this is the only
thing in the platform that can bound them. verified against the running
server: an owner key scoped to [account] gets 200 on /api/user/settings
and 403 on /api/users, /api/tasks and /api/plugins.
it propagates. a narrowed credential can write a task and run it, so the
token buildTaskApiEnv hands that script carries the same narrowing —
otherwise the script comes back through the API with full authority and
the limit bought nothing. the gate stashes it on the request for the one
kind of route that passes authority onward.
POST /tasks/:name/run: runs a script task, waits, returns code and output.
both existing runners need something watching them — the socket needs a
live connection, a job needs somebody to open Jobs. a commander has
neither. deliberately not a job: transcribing a memo takes seconds and
produces a file, and a queue plus a row plus a progress bar is a screen
nobody opened between the request and the result.
script-run.ts is the third thing this needed and the one worth having on
its own. the socket runner, the job runner and now this each carried the
same twenty lines — materialize, INPUT_ env, positional args, resolve cwd,
mint the api env — identical, with nothing saying they had to stay that
way. they differ in how they REPORT, which is real and stays with each of
them. what the script SEES is now decided once.
a commander gets its key at creation, in officer.env at 0600 inside its own
directory, and CLAUDE.md tells it where and says plainly that a sidecar
listening on localhost with no auth is still the wrong door. a file rather
than an env var because the detached loop a commander arms is spawned by
the agent and inherits nothing the platform chose. deleting the commander
revokes the row — the directory removal takes the secret, not the thing
that makes it work.
default scope is everything except `admin`: a commander that can reach
nothing gets widened in a hurry rather than thought about, and installing
plugins, managing users and changing server settings are never part of a
watcher's job. it is a default, stored per key, and for a member it
narrows itself against their role.
also fixed: POST /command-hq/commanders/new never awaited
createCommanderDirectory, so a turn could spawn before its CLAUDE.md
existed — the exact ordering that redesign was for — and the cwd it
returned was a Promise serialising as {}.

27 tests on the file standing between a member and a shell
authorize.ts had none, and its own header is what says why that mattered: every deny path in the platform ends there, and the failure mode of a permissive default is not a bug report, it is someone else's session. It had none for a structural reason rather than an oversight. Every path needed two database calls, and the only file here that mocks officerdb leaks its stub into whatever runs after it — so the obvious approach would have traded one untested file for a flaky suite. So the decisions are split from the fetching. resolveEffectivePermissions, decideApiRequest and decideWsProvider are pure functions of their arguments; the async wrappers keep the role cache, the fail-closed catches and the shape callers use. No behaviour change, and the live gate still answers 401 on file-browser, users and tasks. REAL registry keys throughout, deliberately: a suite built on invented permissions keeps passing after a rename, which is the failure an authorization table can least afford. If a key here disappears this file goes red. Pinned beyond the happy paths — the owner carries no grants to consult; core is write unconditionally; a confined grant is dropped without a Linux user and all three drop together; execution and admin grants in the table are ignored even though no CHECK stops the row existing; an unknown key is ignored without disturbing what is legitimately held; self-service is exact in method AND path; a socket needs no level; an unauthenticated caller is refused every door. Two gaps are stated in the file rather than left to be found: ownerOnly has no declaring permission yet, so testing it would test the fixtures; and the grant cache's contract is a claim about call sites, not logic. Found while writing them: readOnlyWrites paths are relative to the permission's api prefix, and getting that wrong fails as "no permission covers this path" rather than as a level error — a misleading message for a misleading path, now commented at the test that hit it.

permissions: a plugin can mark part of its surface owner-only
A plugin worth granting to a Member can also hold the credential the rest of it runs on. Jellyfin's /_config stores a server's admin token and drives account provisioning; the rest of the plugin is exactly what a Member should have. The choice was all of it or none of it. `ownerOnly` on a plugin permission takes sub-paths relative to the mount prefix. The permission stays fully grantable — this is not the ownerOnly PERMISSION that manifest.ts refuses, and that refusal still stands: a permission nobody can delegate is a contradiction. This says a few paths administer the plugin rather than use it. Declared by the plugin, enforced by the platform. A plugin could check this itself and the first one would; the tenth would add a route and forget, with no boot failure and no warning — the shape assertPermissionTotality exists to prevent. In the gate it is enforced once, on the door they all pass through, and a route added later by someone who never read the manifest is covered by default. Checked before selfService and before kind. A path that is somehow both self-service and owner-only is a contradiction, and the safe reading has to win. A write grant does not unlock it either — level is not the question this answers. Also forwards X-Officer-Owner and X-Officer-Level to a sidecar whose proxy names its permission key, for the finer decisions the platform cannot make for it: whose rows a read returns, which fields a level may see. Facts, never the role name — a plugin branching on "Super Admin" would give every plugin repository an opinion about the platform's role vocabulary, and renaming a role would change authorization in code the platform does not own. These are safe to trust only because the proxy copies a three-item allowlist off the inbound request; that is now written where it would be changed. The owner's level is reported as write rather than the absent 'none': they hold everything implicitly and appear in no grants map, so the raw lookup inverts the meaning for the one account that can do anything. No plugin declares one yet. Jellyfin cannot until connections stop being per-user — locking /_config today leaves a Member with a plugin that only shows a connect form they may not submit.

a tested migration script for the capabilities→permissions rename
Other machines have to make the same database change, and pasted SQL is the
wrong way to ship it. `scripts/rename-capabilities-to-permissions.ts` renames
the table, its column, both indexes and its three CHECK constraints in one
transaction, and refuses to guess:
neither table nothing to do; db:push will create it
already renamed no-op, prints the grant count
BOTH tables present stops and says a human must decide
old table only migrates, counts before and after, prints every grant
Testing it found a bug that reading it had not. The existence checks were
inside the transaction but ran on the pool rather than on `tx`, so they could
not see the uncommitted rename: `columnExists('role_permissions','capability')`
answered false because that table did not exist yet on that connection, and the
COLUMN rename was silently skipped. The result was a `role_permissions` table
with a `capability` column — half migrated, and only failing on the next query.
That was found by building a scratch database in edge-pertento's exact shape
and running the script against it, rather than by review. Every check now
happens before the transaction, against the old names.
Verified end to end on that scratch: 6 grants migrated intact, a second run
correctly no-ops, and `db:push` afterwards leaves role_permissions and its rows
alone while creating the rest of the schema. Indexes come out as
role_permissions_pkey and uq_role_permissions_role_permission.
Also swept the last all-caps survivors the case-sensitive passes missed:
CORE_CAPABILITIES → CORE_PERMISSIONS, and a react-query key still spelling
['ROLE_CAPABILITIES']. The only CAPABILITIES left in src/ is the wallet's, which
is Lightning and stays.

step 1/4: the permission engine is called permissions, not capabilities
The word meant four different things in this repo, not the three the offscale
doc records:
1. the permission registry → RENAMED here
2. $OFFICER_ROOT/capabilities/ items → kept; this is what capabilities are
3. sidecar routing keys → step 3, becoming `handles`
4. Lightning wallet features → kept; a domain term, and on the wire
to the mobile apps
The fourth was not in the doc and a global find-and-replace would have broken
the mobile wallet, which reads `{ kind, capabilities: Capability[] }` from the
wallet sidecar. So this renamed against an explicit file allowlist rather than
by sweeping the tree, and `CapabilityPage.tsx` — the UI for the item store, and
correctly named already — was left alone.
Moved: servers/capabilities/ → servers/permissions/, capability-gate.ts →
permission-gate.ts, users/capabilities-routes.ts → permissions-routes.ts,
hooks/useCapabilities.ts → usePermissions.ts. Identifiers follow.
Three breaks the typechecker could not see, all found by exercising it live.
The route paths moved with the prose sweep, so the server served
/user/permissions while the frontend still called /user/capabilities. A 404 on
every page load, and tsgo clean throughout.
The response FIELD moved too. `client.get<SelfPermissions>()` is an unchecked
cast, so `data.capabilities` became `undefined` at runtime with no compile
error — `can()` would have answered "no" to everything and the dock would have
emptied itself.
And the grants list was passed straight out of the database, so it arrived as
`{ role, capability, level }` while the screen read `grant.permission`. Every
role would have rendered as holding nothing. It is now mapped in the route:
the wire says `permission`, the column still says `capability`, and step 2
therefore changes nothing any client can see.
The stale react-query keys were the quiet one: two files still invalidated
['self-capabilities'] after the hook moved to ['self-permissions'], so
installing a plugin would have silently stopped refreshing the dock.
The database is untouched — `role_capabilities` and its `capability` column are
step 2, and the two call sites that cross that boundary say so in a comment.
Round-tripped the 9 live grants through the admin endpoint to prove the PUT
contract survived: 9 before, 9 after, Member's three intact.
Also reverted prettier churn on five landing-page files that a broad --write
picked up. Second time today; the lesson is not sticking.
tsgo clean. 797 tests, 787 pass, same 7 pre-existing failures — two of which
now read "path → permission" rather than "path → capability".
