Update secret-service.md to reflect the actual alknet-secret implementation:
- Fix dependency names/versions: secp256k1 (not libsecp256k1), version 0.29,
add tokio/irpc-derive/hmac/rand, use workspace refs
- Add SecretServiceActor and CacheConfig to public API
- Add ethereum.rs module to crate structure, fix test_vectors.rs filename
- DerivedKey is move-only (not Clone), matching the stronger security impl
- Update BIP39 pseudocode to actual derive_path_from_seed() API
- Document derive_password_string() convenience method
- Document SecretServiceActor::spawn() in irpc integration model
- Update Unlock variant to target state: { mnemonic, passphrase: Option }
- Add implementation gap note pointing to unlock-passphrase-gap task
Add tasks/integration/phase3/secret-service/unlock-passphrase-gap.md:
- Fix Unlock protocol variant to carry both mnemonic and BIP39 passphrase
- Currently the irpc message only has passphrase: String (used as mnemonic)
- The handle supports both parameters but the protocol can't convey them
Create the alknet-secret crate with BIP39 mnemonic generation, SLIP-0010
Ed25519 HD key derivation, AES-256-GCM encryption, and SecretProtocol
irpc service definition. This is Phase 3.1 from the integration plan.
Architecture changes:
- Promote secret-service.md to reviewed status with full spec format
(crate structure, public API, security model, phase progression,
ADR/OQ cross-references, wire format compatibility section)
- Add ADR-038 (seed lifecycle and memory security): zeroize for v1,
mlock deferred to Phase B
- Add OQ-SEC-01 (mlock/VirtualLock for seed RAM) to open-questions.md
- Update README.md with ADR-038 and secret-service status
Crate structure:
- src/mnemonic.rs: BIP39 phrase generation, validation, seed derivation
- src/derivation.rs: SLIP-0010 HD key derivation, path constants (74')
- src/encryption.rs: AES-256-GCM encrypt/decrypt, EncryptedData type
- src/protocol.rs: SecretProtocol irpc enum, DerivedKey, KeyType
- src/service.rs: SecretServiceHandle with Unlock/Lock lifecycle
- 40 passing tests (unit + integration + doc)
- 2.1: Add prerequisites note (verify call::frame module, ControlChannelRouter
wiring) before decomposition
- 2.2: Add raw framing auth design decision (first-frame auth event pattern
instead of per-frame auth) — simpler, more secure, matches InterfaceEvent model
- 2.3: Add InterfaceConfig restructuring note, TransportKind::WebTransport
tag addition (missed in Phase 1), note that TransportKind::Dns removal
is a no-op (never added). Add scheduling note: do 2.3 early since
subsequent tasks reference new trait names. Update ADR reference to 035.
- 2.4: Split into 2.4a (trait+enum+ConfigCredentialProvider) and 2.4b
(SecretStoreCredentialProvider, Phase 3). Clarify that the Phase 2 impl
is config-backed, not secret-backed.
- 2.5: Mark TransportKind::Dns removal as no-op since it was never added.
- 4.5: Note that doc sync round 1 is already done (commit cfc4400).
Second sync needed after implementation to capture any deviations.
- Open questions: Mark OQ-IF-01 and OQ-IF-02 as resolved with ADR-035
and ADR-031 references. Update OQ-P2-01 through P2-04 with ADR-036
and resolution status.
The axum router scaffold now only includes auth middleware and stealth
handoff — no operational routes or path conventions. External HTTP path
routing (from_openapi inverse, custom S3/git/OpenAI paths) is deferred
to Phase 5 since it depends on the spec-generation work.
- rustfs-events-select.md: deep dive into rustfs S3 event notification
system (9 target types, 30+ event types, rule engine, queue store)
and S3 Select (DataFusion-based SQL, CSV/JSON/Parquet input)
- honker-reference.md: deep dive into honker SQLite extension for
pub/sub, queue, and notification — core primitives, SQL API,
wake mechanism, single-machine design, and mapping to alknet
storage patterns
- definitions.md: formal term disambiguation for overloaded concepts
(service, interface, token, identity, domain) with cross-domain mapping
tables (alknet ↔ Keystone, distributed git, rustfs) and 8 open questions
- references/rustfs/: research on rustfs S3 store, Keystone/OIDC integration,
and credential mapping to CredentialSet
- references/gitserver/: research on gitserver library architecture and
integration paths as HTTP MessageInterface and SSH adapter
- references/openstack-keystone/: research on Keystone identity concepts
(tokens, scoping, service catalog, RBAC, trust delegation, federation)
and what alknet should adopt vs skip
- references/distributed-identity/: research on decentralized git, smart
contract ACL, on-chain identity, and Radicle comparison
Three research documents for Phase 2 planning:
- credential-provider.md: Outbound auth (CredentialProvider trait, CredentialSet enum),
account model as storage-layer concern (Identity.id as account UUID), SecretStoreCredentialProvider,
ManagedCredentialProvider, self-hosted service auth analysis (rustfs S3/OIDC, gitea OAuth2),
implementation phases A-D.
- interface-model.md: StreamInterface vs MessageInterface trait design, HTTP interface
as axum handler, DNS as MessageInterface, unified auth across all interfaces
(AuthToken + API keys via resolve_from_token), removal of TransportKind::Dns.
- tls-transport.md: Unified multi-interface architecture on port 443. Byte-peek protocol
detection (existing stealth mode) routes SSH vs axum. Axum multiplexes REST, WebSocket,
SSE, gRPC. QUIC/UDP with ALPN routing for WebTransport and iroh P2P. Single AuthToken
mechanism for all non-SSH interfaces. Four primitive operations (call/batch/schema/subscribe)
map to HTTP, MCP, and DNS.
Update four existing specs (overview, server, napi-and-pubsub, call-protocol) to
reflect Phase 0 decisions: three-layer model, IdentityProvider, ForwardingPolicy,
OperationEnv, static/dynamic config split. Review all 9 Phase 0a ADRs (026-034)
for consistency. Fix 4 critical issues from architecture review: missing OQ-SVC-05
in open-questions.md, deprecated hub terminology, undefined AuthService and noq
terms. Replace inline OQ text with cross-references per format rules. Add
ConfigServiceImpl definition to configuration.md. Port absolute workspace paths
to project-relative links by copying referenced docs (feasibility, certbot,
fail2ban, event_source_types) into docs/research/.
The architecture specs were implying that StorageIdentityProvider, irpc
service implementations, and application services (agent, Docker, etc.)
already exist. This commit makes the phasing explicit:
- services.md: deployment topology now clearly labels 'Current (Phase 1)'
vs 'Future (Phase 2+)', notes that application services are downstream
- identity.md: StorageIdentityProvider labeled 'Future — Phase 2+',
clarifying alknet-storage doesn't exist yet
- storage.md: adds phase note that the crate hasn't been built yet,
StorageIdentityProvider is a future impl
- ADR-028: ConfigAuthService is Phase 1 path, StorageAuthService is
Phase 2+ contract
- call-protocol.md: Agent Service Pattern section explicitly framed as
a downstream application concern, not a core requirement
- Replace hub/spoke with head/worker terminology in call-protocol.md,
auth.md, open-questions.md, napi-and-pubsub.md
- Update operation paths from /{spoke}/{service}/{op} to
/{node}/{service}/{op} throughout call-protocol.md
- Unify Identity struct: auth.md already had {id, scopes, resources},
add note clarifying this is canonical (vs research/services.md which
used {node_id, fingerprint, scopes})
- Update integration-plan.md inconsistencies section to track what's
been fixed (hub/spoke, identity model) and expand service naming
to include external services
- Update call-protocol.md last_updated date
ADRs are intentionally left unchanged as historical records.
Organizes findings from the research phase (core, services, configuration,
storage, flow) into an actionable phased plan covering:
- Transport/Interface/Protocol three-layer model
- OperationEnv as universal composition mechanism (not replaced by irpc)
- Phase 0: Architecture foundation (9 ADRs, ~10 spec docs)
- Phase 1: Core modifications (config split, identity, forwarding, auth,
OperationEnv, interface abstraction)
- Phase 2: External crates (alknet-secret, alknet-storage, alknet-flowgraph)
- Phase 3: Integration and wiring
- Phase 4: Advanced features (DNS, WebTransport, app services)
Key clarifications: irpc services are one dispatch backend for OperationEnv,
not a replacement for it. DNS control channel is a (DNS transport, raw framing
interface) pair, not SSH-over-DNS. Call protocol and irpc operate at different
scope boundaries within Layer 3.
Document the OperationContext (request_id, identity, metadata, env, trusted),
OperationEnv (namespaced callables for handler composition), ResponseEnvelope
pattern, and how MCP/OpenAPI adapters map to the irpc service model.
- Replace hub/spoke terminology with head/worker throughout all research docs
- Add irpc service layer architecture (AuthProtocol, SecretProtocol,
ConfigProtocol, StorageProtocol)
- Add BIP39/SLIP-0010 HD key derivation for secrets management
- Add event boundary discipline (domain events vs integration events)
- Add application services layer (Docker, Node, Wallet, Proxy, Compute)
- New docs/research/services.md defining irpc service protocols
- Update core.md with service layer section and head/worker model
- Update configuration.md to delegate auth to AuthService (irpc)
- Update storage.md with secrets/key derivation and event boundaries
- Update flow.md with event boundary decision and cross-references
Unified authentication (ADR-023): SSH and WebTransport auth share the same
Ed25519 key material. Token auth uses signed timestamps verified against the
same authorized_keys set. IdentityProvider trait decouples core from identity
storage.
Bidirectional call protocol (ADR-024): Generalizes control channel (ADR-018)
to support hub→spoke and spoke→hub calls. Operation paths use /{spoke}/{service}/{op}
format for three-level routing. EventEnvelope wire format, five call events,
PendingRequestMap for correlation.
Handler/spec separation (ADR-025): Downstream consumers register operations
without modifying core. OperationRegistry maps paths to specs + handlers.
Service discovery via /services/list and /services/schema.
Resolves OQ-17 (transport-aware auth), OQ-21 (spoke routing), OQ-CFG-04 and
OQ-CFG-06 (WebTransport auth and transport-aware auth layer). Adds OQ-18
through OQ-22 for remaining open questions.
Address 5 critical and 7 warning issues from architecture review:
- Fix duplicate sentence in napi-and-pubsub.md server side section
- Add wraith- namespace reservation to server.md constraints (ADR-018)
- Document stealth mode TLS-only requirement in server.md
- Create ADR-019 for --proxy dual semantics (client vs server)
- Clarify NAPI connect() vs CLI wraith connect distinction
- Add SOCKS5h default as privacy design decision in client.md
- Expand reconnection section (always-on, re-register port forwards)
- Add graceful shutdown sections to client.md and server.md
- Specify OpenSSH key format for path-or-buffer inputs across all docs
- Resolve pubsub alternative approach ambiguity (ADR-018 is primary)
- Replace server.md handler impl block with behavioral description
- Standardize iroh endpoint ID terminology (base58-encoded)
- Remove iroh API implementation details from transport.md/server.md
- Add error handling pattern as cross-cutting concern in overview.md
- Update all document statuses from draft to reviewed
