Single audit pass that removes pre-release back-compat, consolidates the
admin-policy decider, and fixes the .zddc write path.
Field removal — acl.allow / acl.deny:
- Drop ACLRules.Allow / Deny struct fields and mergeLegacyACL().
- Remove walker / lookups / validate / decider branches that read them.
- Migrate every test fixture (YAML strings and ACLRules struct literals)
to acl.permissions: { principal → verb-set }.
- Rewrite both bundled Rego policies (access.rego, access_federal.rego)
to traverse level.acl.permissions; rewrite parity-test helpers.
- Update create-project form (profile page) to collect permissions
instead of allow/deny lists.
Admin decider consolidation:
- Delete zddc.CanEditZddc — strict-ancestor rule retired. Subtree admins
own their own .zddc; the policy decider's IsActiveAdmin short-circuit
is the single bypass site.
- Migrate tablehandler.ServeTable to AllowActionFromChainP — closes the
same Forbidden bug already fixed for /browse.html.
- Drop AccessView.EditableParentChoices and treeEntry.CanEdit (always
true after the retirement). Profile page renders AdminSubtrees
directly for both lists.
- Drop the excludeLeaf parameter from AdminLevelInChain /
IsAdminForChain — no production caller passed true.
Dead code removed:
- policy.AllowWriteFromChain (zero production callers, zero tests).
- zddc.AllowedWithChain (zero production callers; tests deleted).
ModeStrict retirement — federal posture is OPA-only:
- Delete cascade_mode.go / cascade_mode_test.go and the ModeStrict
branches in cascade.go and acl.go.
- Drop --cascade-mode flag, CascadeMode config field, and the
InternalDecider.Mode field.
- Drop the mode parameter from every cascade helper:
GrantedVerbsAtLevel, AllowedAction, EffectiveVerbs,
EffectiveVerbsRange, RoleMembers, MatchesPrincipal,
MatchingPrincipals, WormZoneGrant, PolicyChain.VisibleStart.
- Strip cascade_mode from /.profile/config and
/.profile/effective-policy responses.
- Refresh README / ARCHITECTURE.md to describe federal posture as
"deploy OPA with access_federal.rego" (NIST AC-6); the bundled Rego
is the parent-deny-is-absolute variant. The in-process Go evaluator
implements only the commercial cascade.
Legacy redirects + .admin.css fallback:
- Drop /<dir>/.zddc.html → ?file=.zddc redirect and its test.
- Drop ?zip=1 retired comment + legacy test (handled by the
.zip virtual-URL path; covered by TestServeSubtreeZip).
- Drop .admin.css fallback in profile_assets.go — only .profile.css now.
- Refresh stale "retired" / "back-compat" / "legacy" comment markers.
.zddc write path fix:
- Dispatcher: route only GET/HEAD on .zddc URLs to ServeZddcFile; carve
.zddc out of the dot-prefix guard so PUT/DELETE/POST reach
ServeFileAPI. Before this, .zddc writes 405'd at ServeZddcFile and
the YAML editor's save flow had no live path.
- ServeFileAPI.resolveTargetPath: same .zddc-leaf carve-out so the file
API accepts the path; intermediate dot dirs (.zddc.d/) stay reserved.
- Listing: compute Writable per-file with ActionAdmin for .zddc
(matches the file API's gate) instead of ActionWrite for everything.
- Virtual .zddc placeholder: compute Writable via the same
parentActiveAdmin || ActionAdmin path. Was always false before.
- browse YAML editor canSave: exempt virtual .zddc — the synthetic
body is designed to materialize on PUT.

Listing JSON gains a writable bool per file row, computed by running
the policy decider with ActionWrite against the parent-dir chain
(with the same admin-bypass branch the file API uses). Cost: one
extra decider call per file in the listing, sharing the parent
chain so the cascade walk is amortized.
Browse loader stores writable on every tree node. The markdown and
YAML editors read it and gate their canSave + initial mount:
- !writable markdown → Toast UI Viewer (rendered, no edit toolbar,
no caret). Banner above explains why save is disabled.
- !writable YAML → CodeMirror readOnly:'nocursor' (selection for
copy, no caret). Banner above explains why save is disabled.
Both editors gain autofocus:false so keyboard nav in the browse
tree doesn't divert into the editor — arrow keys keep moving through
files and folders without the caret jumping. User clicks (or tabs)
into the editor when they actually want to type.
.zddc files already route through preview-yaml's isZddcFile path;
bare .zddc (no ext) matches because that function checks the
literal name.

Major upgrade to the browse tool's UX, plus a few shared modules other
tools can adopt.
User-facing:
- Right-click context menu on tree rows AND empty pane space. Traditional
file-manager grouping (Open / Download / New / Rename-Delete / Copy /
Tree ops / View). Items stay visible but disabled when not applicable
so muscle memory carries. Generic shared/context-menu.js framework
supports normal items, toggles, submenus, separators, danger styling.
- YAML editor for .yaml / .yml / .zddc files (CodeMirror 5 vendored at
shared/vendor/codemirror-yaml.min.*). js-yaml lint on every change
for parse errors. For .zddc cascade files, an additional schema-aware
lint pass flags unknown keys, bad enum values, and wrong types.
- Per-row drag-drop upload using webkitGetAsEntry (folder uploads work
recursively). Per-row drop indicator; doc-level overlay still fires
for blank-space drops at drop_target scopes.
- New folder / New markdown file context-menu items (server mode).
Rename + Delete with native confirm() dialog. File-API helpers
removeNode / renameNode use the existing PUT/POST/DELETE endpoints.
- Hover info card with the row's full metadata (ZDDC fields + filesystem
info + path/URL). Interactive — mouse into it, drag-select text,
Ctrl/Cmd-C or right-click → Copy. 200ms grace before dismiss.
- Autofilter input at the top of the tree pane. Same grammar as
archive's column filters (zddc.filter.parse / matches). Filters
files; folders without matches collapse out. Non-matching folders
force-open visually when descendants match, without mutating the
user's actual expand state.
- Two-line ZDDC label: title-first, tracking/rev/status as monospace
meta below. Icon column anchors to the title line. Chevron is a
Lucide outline `chevron-right` SVG, rotated 90° on `.expanded`.
- File-type Lucide icon sprite (shared/icons.js — 16 outline glyphs,
~5 KB). PDF / Word / Spreadsheet / Slides / Image / Video / Audio /
CAD / Web / Config / Code / Archive get distinct icons; folders
tinted with --primary.
- Header wraps gracefully at narrow viewports (shared/base.css
flex-wrap + title min-width:0 ellipsis). Body becomes flex column
in browse so a wrapping header doesn't break #appMain height.
- Markdown editor opens in WYSIWYG mode by default. YAML front-matter
+ TOC sidebar reworked: flexbox layout (single visible resizer
between FM and TOC), both bodies overflow:auto for X+Y scrollbars.
- `?file=<path>` deep links open browse pre-positioned at a specific
file. Multi-segment paths walk into subdirectories on the way.
Auto-flips Show hidden when a segment is dot/underscore-prefixed.
- Refresh + show-hidden toggle preserve expansion / selection /
preview pinning. Path-keyed snapshot survives a re-fetched listing.
- "Add Local Directory" → "Use Local Directory" across the four tools
that have it (browse, archive, classifier, +transmittal comment).
