Four targeted test suites that pin the invariants exercised by the
preceding audit refactor. Closes the coverage gaps identified after the
admin-decider consolidation and the .zddc write-path fix.
internal/policy/principal_test.go (NEW)
TestAllowActionFromChainP_TruthTable — 11 cases × 5 actions = 55
assertions covering every (elevated × admin-at-level × action)
combination. Pins the IsActiveAdmin short-circuit: bypass requires
BOTH (in admins) AND Elevated; elevation alone confers nothing;
empty email never matches.
TestAllowActionFromChainP_AdminScopeDepth — root admin reaches every
path; subtree admin matches in their own subtree; subtree admin
does NOT match in a sibling subtree (the chain doesn't carry
sibling admins lists).
TestAllowActionFromChainP_BypassWinsOverWorm — elevated admin
escape hatch in WORM zones, plus the negative control that an
un-elevated admin does NOT bypass WORM.
internal/handler/auth_invariants_test.go (appended)
TestInvariant_ZddcPutMatrix — 16 sub-cases across (root / project /
subtree .zddc) × (root admin / subtree admin / non-admin /
anonymous) × (elevated / un-elevated). Locks down which principal
can PUT which .zddc.
TestInvariant_ZddcDeleteMatrix — 5 DELETE cases.
TestInvariant_UnelevatedAdminNoSilentBypass — 14 anti-bypass probes:
every (admin-flavour × probe-path) tuple where an un-elevated
admin must 403. Single bypass leak → loud test failure.
cmd/zddc-server/main_test.go (appended)
TestDispatchZddcWriteRouting — full dispatcher path coverage:
GET/HEAD route to ServeZddcFile (YAML or virtual placeholder);
PUT/DELETE route through the .zddc-leaf carve-out into
ServeFileAPI; intermediate .zddc.d/ segments still 404 at the
guard.
internal/handler/middleware_test.go (appended)
TestAccessLog_ChainAdminLevelAttribution — 7 cases pinning the
forensic record: root admin → chain_admin_level=0, subtree admin
in scope → chain_admin_level=N, subtree admin out of scope → -1,
un-elevated admin → -1, non-admin → -1, anonymous → -1.
Cross-checks active_admin == (chain_admin_level >= 0) so a future
refactor can't desync them.
92 new sub-cases total. Coverage delta on the policy package:
76.1% → 87.2%; AllowActionFromChainP 0% → 100%;
activeAdminForRequest 7% → 68%.

The access log now reports whether the elevated user actually held
admin authority on the request's target path — i.e., whether the
single bypass branch in policy.InternalDecider.Allow would have
fired here. Three states fall out:
elevated=false, active_admin=false: normal user
elevated=true, active_admin=false: opted into admin but no admin
grant on this path (subtree-
admin out of scope)
elevated=true, active_admin=true: admin authority active for
this path — WORM/ACL bypass
Implementation: AccessLogMiddleware gains a cfg parameter and calls
activeAdminForRequest at log emission, walking the closest existing
ancestor (same logic the file API uses to build its ACL chain).
The cascade is mtime-cached upstream so the per-request cost is one
map lookup in the common case.
Audit value: a reviewer can spot at a glance whether a destructive
write was authorized by ACL or by admin bypass. Plus "elevated=true
active_admin=false" rows surface users who tried to elevate outside
their actual scope.

zddc-server now issues its own bearer tokens for non-browser callers
(CLI tools, scripts, downstream proxy/cache/mirror instances). No
external IDP, no JWKS rotation. Self-service flow: sign in via the
browser, visit /.tokens, click "Create token," paste the resulting
plaintext into a 0600 file, and pass --bearer-file <path> to whatever
calls back into the server.
Storage is <ZDDC_ROOT>/.zddc.d/tokens/<sha256-hex>, YAML per token
with email/created/expires/description. Filename is the *hash* of the
plaintext, never the plaintext itself — a leak of the tokens
directory exposes hashes, not credentials. Mode 0600 / 0700, atomic
writes via temp+rename. Already shielded from public serving by the
existing dot-prefix guards in dispatch and fs.ListDirectory.
ACLMiddleware now recognises Authorization: Bearer <token>. On valid
token, sets the request email from the token file and falls through
to the existing ACL chain. On any failure (unknown / expired / store
unavailable / Bearer with no validator), returns 401 — no silent
fallback to anonymous, so a misconfigured client fails loudly.
JSON API at /.api/tokens (GET list, POST create, DELETE /<id> revoke)
backs a small inline HTML self-service page at /.tokens. Users can
only see and revoke their own tokens; cross-user revoke returns 404
to avoid leaking ownership.
--no-auth (ZDDC_NO_AUTH=1) skips ACL enforcement entirely on this
instance. On master: anyone reads everything (dev / trusted-LAN /
public-read deployments). On a downstream proxy/cache/mirror: trust
upstream's filtering, don't re-evaluate ACLs locally. Implemented as
a swap to policy.AllowAllDecider; all existing handlers keep calling
AllowFromChain unchanged. Distinct from --insecure, which only
relaxes the no-root-.zddc startup check. WARN-level startup log when
--no-auth is active so accidental enablement is visible.
33 new tests covering token storage, validation/expiry/revocation,
the JSON API end-to-end, the HTML page, and the middleware-Bearer
integration including the case-insensitive prefix and expired-token
paths. Full suite + go vet clean.
Doc updates: zddc/README.md "Authentication" rewritten to cover both
auth paths and the token UI/API; AGENTS.md gains ZDDC_NO_AUTH and a
"Bearer tokens" subsection flagging the dot-prefix-shielding pre-
condition; ARCHITECTURE.md adds "Bearer token issuance" and
"--no-auth" subsections under "Server security model" with the
hash-as-filename rationale and dispatch-shielding regression-
sensitivity called out; CLAUDE.md adds a one-line summary of the new
auth topology so future agents pick it up by default.

Add an internal access-decision boundary that all handlers go through
instead of calling zddc.AllowedWithChain directly. Two implementations
ship:
* InternalDecider — wraps the existing zddc.AllowedWithChain. The
default. No new dependencies, identical semantics to the legacy
code path. ZDDC_OPA_URL=internal (or unset).
* HTTPDecider — POSTs the canonical OPA wire format
(POST /v1/data/zddc/access/allow with {"input": {...}}, response
{"result": true|false}) over HTTP, HTTPS, or a Unix-domain socket.
For federal customers running their own audited Rego policies
alongside zddc-server. ZDDC_OPA_URL=http(s)://… or unix:///….
External-mode failure semantics: unreachable / non-2xx / malformed
response → fail closed (deny) by default with a WARN log. Operators
who prefer availability over correctness flip with ZDDC_OPA_FAIL_OPEN=1.
The decider is constructed once at startup, plumbed through ACLMiddleware
into the request context. Handlers retrieve it via DeciderFromContext;
non-request callers (fs.ListDirectory, EnumerateProjects, enumerateAccess)
take it as an explicit parameter.
zddc.ZddcFile and zddc.ACLRules gain JSON tags so external Rego authors
get idiomatic input shape (acl.allow, admins, …) instead of Go field
names (ACL.Allow, Admins, …).
Test coverage:
* InternalDecider parity tests against zddc.AllowedWithChain (every
documented cascade scenario: empty chain, leaf-allow-wins, leaf-
deny-beats-parent, leaf-allows-what-parent-denies, deepest-match-
wins, etc.)
* HTTPDecider happy-path test (canonical wire format)
* Fail-closed / fail-open / malformed-response tests
Production binary size unchanged (no new deps; HTTP transport is
stdlib net/http). 11 ACL call sites migrated. End-to-end verified
against the worked-example layout in zddc/README.md.

Add --access-log <path> (env ZDDC_ACCESS_LOG). When set, every access-
log record is written as a JSON line to the configured file in
addition to the existing slog.Default() stderr output. Empty (default)
keeps the prior behavior — stderr only.
Rotation via gopkg.in/natefinch/lumberjack.v2:
100 MB per file, 10 backups, 90-day max age, gzip rotated files.
Operator usage (e.g. behind a Caddy/quadlet stack):
zddc-server --access-log /srv/.zddc.d/logs/access.log ...
Architecture:
AccessLogMiddleware now takes an optional *slog.Logger. main.go wires
it via setupAccessAuditLog() which builds a slog.JSONHandler over a
lumberjack rotator. Stderr emission stays via slog.Default(); the
audit logger gets the same fields in line-delimited JSON, the format
every standard log shipper (Vector, Loki, fluentbit, journalbeat)
parses natively.
Tests cover the audit logger receiving the same email/path/status
fields as the stderr stream.
The middleware chain in main.go was:
AccessLogMiddleware ( CORSMiddleware ( ACLMiddleware ( dispatch ) ) )
ACLMiddleware extracts the user email from the configured header and
stores it in the request context via r.WithContext. But Go's context
propagates DOWN the chain (to handlers further in) — not back UP. The
new context-bearing request only exists inside the call to
next.ServeHTTP; once that returns, the outer middleware still has the
ORIGINAL request without the email. So AccessLogMiddleware's
EmailFromContext(r) call (which runs after next.ServeHTTP returns to
log the request) read from the original context and got an empty
string, falling through to "anonymous".
The /.profile/ page worked correctly because it reads the email
directly inside the handler — at that depth the context-bearing
request is the one in scope.
Fix: invert the chain so ACL is OUTERMOST.
ACLMiddleware ( AccessLogMiddleware ( CORSMiddleware ( dispatch ) ) )
Now ACL extracts the email and the new request flows down through
AccessLog (which sees the email-bearing context), CORS, and dispatch.
Add three regression tests in middleware_test.go:
TestAccessLogReadsEmailFromACLContext
The fix: with ACL outer, AccessLog logs email=alice@example.com
when X-Auth-Request-Email is set.
TestAccessLogAnonymousWhenNoEmail
The unchanged path: no header → email=anonymous (correct fallback).
TestAccessLogOuterDoesNotSeeInnerContext
Locks down Go's actual context-propagation behavior. Builds the
INVERTED (buggy) chain and asserts that AccessLog (outer) does NOT
see the email ACL (inner) set. If this ever fails, Go's context
propagation has changed in a way that lets inner-set context flow
upward — which would mean the reordering fix could be reverted.
All zddc-server tests pass via `go test ./...` (run in podman against
golang:1.24-alpine since this dev host doesn't have Go installed).
