Both functions wrap their read-modify-write in a Drizzle better-sqlite3
db.transaction((tx) => ...) with in-txn re-fetch so concurrent admin
mutations are serialized by SQLite's writer lock.
- patchInvite: 404 on missing, 409 on revoked, 400 on maxUses < usedCount,
allows expiresAt to be moved into the past (effective soft-shut).
- revokeInvite: 404 on missing, 409 on already-revoked (explicit reject,
not silent no-op).
Also extracts foldUsername() to collapse the duplicated
(username, isDeleted) -> display string fold across resolveCreatorUsername,
listInvites, and listRedemptions (deferred refactor from Task 5 review).
Note: the plan's example used db.transaction(cb)() with an IIFE,
which is the raw better-sqlite3 signature. Drizzle's wrapper
returns the callback's return value directly, so we use the
(tx) => ... form consistent with the rest of the codebase
(userDeletion, federation, channels, etc.).
Tests: 36 invite-service tests pass (27 prior + 9 new).
Full server suite: 40 files / 311 tests pass.
Adds two query helpers to inviteService:
- listInvites(filter): single-query LEFT JOIN against users to surface
createdByUsername, with status filtered in TS via the canonical
inviteStatus() derivation. Avoids N+1 the spec calls out (§3.1).
'archived' = expired | exhausted | revoked. Sort: createdAt DESC.
- listRedemptions(inviteId): LEFT JOIN against users via userId to
expose currentUsername alongside the registrantUsername snapshot.
Three null-handling branches per spec §3.1: live (username),
tombstoned ('Deleted User', isDeleted=true), and hard-deleted
(userId null, currentUsername null, isDeleted false).
Sort: redeemedAt DESC.
Also fixes a mistitled DB-miss test in getInviteByToken: the original
'returns null when token not found' used a 24-char string that fails
the format regex *before* the DB lookup. Split into two tests covering
both the format-reject path and the well-formed-but-missing path.
40 files / 302 tests passing.
Storage panel's max-upload-size input now accepts any positive integer
(bounded only by JS safe-integer ceiling) and offers an MB/GB unit
toggle. Multipart limit relaxed to MAX_SAFE_INTEGER — actual cap is
enforced per-request from the DB setting, not at the framework layer.
Mirrors the REST-login change in f17c46c on the registration insert path.
A successful POST /api/auth/register does not by itself imply a live
WebSocket — the client may never connect (transient network, mobile
background, error path between the 201 and /ws), leaving a permanently
stuck-online row that no disconnect timer can clean up. The schema
default 'offline' is correct; ws/handler.ts flips it to 'online' on real
WS auth.
The federated-stub upgrade path in the same handler is unaffected: it
only updates passwordHash/username/homeUserId/displayName/avatarColor,
leaving the stub's pre-existing 'offline' status (set when the stub was
created via replication) untouched.
Updates docs/systems/auth.md step 7 to reflect the new behavior.
users.status was only flipped back to offline by the WebSocket disconnect
path (5s grace timer in ConnectionManager). Process exits (deploy/crash/OOM)
lose those in-memory timers, freezing any non-offline row at its last value
and making the user appear permanently online to friends and space co-members.
Confirmed in production on the Pi instance: a user appeared online for ~3
days with no live socket.
Add resetStalePresenceOnBoot() in utils/presenceBoot.ts and call it from
index.ts after getDb()/seedDatabase() and before WebSocket route registration.
The reset is federation-safe: it only updates rows where home_instance IS
NULL (replicated stubs are projections of remote presence and must not be
stomped) and is_deleted = 0 (tombstoned users are excluded from broadcasts).
Also remove the redundant status='online' write from POST /api/auth/login.
A successful REST login does not imply a live socket; the WS auth handshake
is the single source of truth. Login alone could otherwise produce the same
stuck-online row when a client logs in and never establishes a WS.
Tests cover: locally-homed online/idle/dnd reset, replicated rows untouched,
tombstoned rows untouched, idempotence, mixed populations.
Updates docs/systems/activity-presence.md (Connect/Disconnect Flow, new Boot
Reset section) and docs/systems/auth.md (login no longer mutates status).
Two correctness/defense fixes plus regression tests in the existing
in-memory drizzle test file.
1. Reverse-direction idempotency. The sender-side path in social.ts
checks BOTH directions of friend_requests and returns 409
incoming_request_exists when an opposite-direction row exists. The
receiver only matched from->to, so cross-fire (alice@A and bob@B both
click "add friend" near-simultaneously) produced two opposite
pending rows on each instance. The receiver now silent-accepts when
either direction matches a pending row, mirroring the sender's
both-direction check.
2. Self-target guard (defense-in-depth). Reject events whose
from-identity equals to-identity (after normalizeOriginForCompare)
with a new receiver-acknowledged 4xx code self_target_invalid.
Sender's local cannot_friend_self should catch this, but the
receiver does not trust upstream validation. Added to
TERMINAL_REJECTION_REASONS so the standard rollback fires
(mapped client-side to peer_rejected). Logged at console.warn.
Spec updates: social.md inbound contract now documents both-direction
idempotency and the self-target guard; federation.md and the
s2s-friend-add design spec list the new terminal rejection reason.
Extends the existing happy-path test (one case) with 14 more covering
every branch of the receiver-side handler: missing payload, attribution
mismatch, tombstoned sender (silent accept), recipient_not_found
(including soft-deleted recipient), already-friends idempotency in both
column orderings, same-direction pending re-delivery idempotency,
declined-then-resent (status filter), reused replicated stub, profile
hydration with URL resolution, explicit and fallback createdAt, and
mixed-batch accept/reject isolation through processRelayEvents.
The third describe block (`ensurePeered needs_attention handling`) was
the last federation test still using the legacy `vi.doMock` +
hand-crafted drizzle query-chain pattern. Convert it to the converged
in-memory better-sqlite3 + real drizzle pattern used by every other
federationPeering.* test (exemplar:
federationPeering.approvalToken.test.ts).
The first two describe blocks (`EnsurePeeredResult type`, `racePeering`)
did not use vi.doMock and remain byte-identical. The needs_attention
test's behavior is preserved 1:1: same `it(...)` description, same
assertions (status === 'rejected', error contains 'needs_attention',
fetch never called).
Module-level `vi.mock` calls now apply to the whole file, but the
type-only and racePeering tests don't exercise the mocked modules, so
there is no behavioral interaction.
No production code changes. No new test scenarios. No skipped/only/
commented blocks. All 352 server tests pass.
Live verification caught a stale-UI bug: when admin denial / approval
fanout / janitor expiry cascaded subscriber rows away, only the
peering_notification_received WS event fired (which only refetches
the notification list). The user's pending-subscriptions section
stayed stale until manual refresh.
Each terminal-state path now also fires peering_subscription_changed
to affected users so their pending list refreshes alongside the new
notification. Fixed in:
- onPeerActivated.fanoutOutboundSubscribers (approval path)
- handleOutboundDeny (admin denial)
- cleanupExpiredApprovalRequests (janitor expiry; also adds the
notification-received broadcast that was previously deferred to
next-page-load only)
db.select() returned every column including userId; spec §4.9
defined the response row WITHOUT userId. The leak is harmless today
(user queries their own rows) but expands the public API surface
beyond the spec, and would become part of the contract once Task 10
generates client types. Switching to explicit column projection.
Task 9's first pass replaced inbound expiry's signed /peer/denied
POST with a plain delete, citing symmetric independent expiry as
the design. The spec at §4.10 explicitly said 'inbound row cleanup
unchanged' — that was scope creep, not a fix. Inbound expiry now
preserves the pre-branch behavior verbatim: signed POST to remote,
delete only on success, retry on failure. Outbound expiry's fanout
logic (the actual Task 9 scope) is unchanged.
- GET /api/federation/peering-notifications (?unread=1 filter)
- POST /api/federation/peering-notifications/:id/read (per-row mark-read)
- POST /api/federation/peering-notifications/read-all (bulk mark-read,
preserves already-read readAt; returns affected count)
- janitor: outbound expired rows fan out kind='expired' notifications
to each subscriber before cascade-deleting parent (replaces Task 1's
scaffolding 'continue' guard); inbound expired rows are deleted outright
(both sides expire independently — no cross-instance network call)
- janitor: 30-day cleanup pass for read notifications
(cleanupReadPeeringNotifications); unread rows persist indefinitely
- cleanupExpiredApprovalRequests is now sync (no async network IO)
Notes:
- No WS broadcast on janitor expiry — offline users see notifications on
next GET, matching the persistence guarantee of the notifications table.
- The previous /peer/denied network call on inbound expiry is removed;
symmetric per-side expiry now handles termination on both sides.
Tests: 12 new (3 + 4 endpoint cases on 3 endpoints; 2 outbound/inbound
janitor expiry cases + 1 not-yet-expired guard + 1 retention sweep);
247 server tests passing total.
User-facing endpoints for the pending-peering-approvals UI surface.
GET lists the user's own pending subscriber rows joined to parent
peering requests. DELETE cancels a single subscription; if it was
the last subscriber, cascade-deletes the parent (admin queue updates
via federation_peers_changed). Authorization: subscriber.userId must
match request.userId.
The fanoutOutboundSubscribers helper is called from onPeerActivated,
the single point all peer activations flow through (queue approval,
/peer/initiate, autoAccept=1 remote, mutual-approval token verification).
Subscribers see kind='approved' notification, parent + subscriber rows
cascade-delete. Critical: cleanup triggers on status->active, not on
the local approve action — when the remote also gates, the peer goes
to awaiting_approval first and subscribers must remain queued.
- social.ts friend-add: user_action, with 409 peer_pending_local_admin
when gate fires
- /peer/ensure: user_action, surfaces peeringStatus: 'admin_required'
- sendCallRelay (typing warm-up + call relay): system intent
- federationWorker resolvePendingPeers: system intent (defensive — gate
is unreachable from here since pending rows already exist)
- CallRelayFailureReason: peer_admin_required added (mapped to
peer_transient_failure on the user-facing event surface, since system
intent should never legitimately surface admin_required)
- Test files: thread intent arg through racePeering and ensurePeered
calls (positional shift from racePeering signature change)
- outboundGate.test.ts: tighten noUncheckedIndexedAccess access via
non-null assertions after toHaveLength()
- docs/systems/social.md: peer_pending_local_admin error code documented
The pre-existing trust-guard's query filtered peer_approval_requests by
origin only. After Task 3 added outbound rows to the same table, the
guard started matching the user's own queued outbound row on retry,
returning 'rejected' with a misleading 'admin must resolve pending
approval' copy instead of the intended 'admin_required'. The variable
name (pendingInbound) and comment block already described the intent
as inbound-only — the query just didn't match. Adding direction='inbound'
to the where clause restores the intended behavior.
- New 'admin_required' EnsurePeeredResult variant.
- Required intent argument (no optional default) prevents future
user-initiated callers from silently getting system behavior.
- Gate runs only when no peer row exists; toggling autoAccept later
does not retroactively gate established peer rows.
- queueOutboundApproval helper upserts parent + subscriber rows and
broadcasts to admins + user.
- Schema enum-narrows direction ('inbound' | 'outbound') and
notifications.kind ('approved' | 'denied' | 'expired') at the column
level; drizzle generate confirmed no migration delta.
- Existing call sites now fail typecheck — fixed in Task 5.
drizzle's snapshot does not encode SQL-level CHECK constraints. Without
this comment, a future migration that recreates the table for unrelated
reasons would silently drop the (direction='inbound' → hmac_secret
NOT NULL) invariant.
Three changes to keep the outbound /peer/accept call sites consistent
with the new approval-token mechanism:
1. /approve outbound body now forwards approvalToken from the queued
peer_approval_requests row when present. Receiver's awaiting_approval
branch verifies it and promotes mutual approval. Legacy null-token
rows omit the field; receiver falls through autoAccept gate. Spec §3.7.
2. /approve and /peer/initiate 202 paths now capture the approvalToken
returned by the remote and store it on the local federation_peers row.
Without this, the symmetric autoAccept=0 mutual-approval flow could
not verify on the eventual return /peer/accept. Spec §3.7.
3. /approve and /peer/initiate 200 paths now include approvalToken=null
in the activation UPDATE — single-use lifecycle hygiene per §3.2.
Test coverage: +6 tests (4 in approveOutbound, 2 in peerInitiateOutbound).
Total: 301 → 307. Web tsc clean.
Receiver-side defense — closes the trust-bypass class the cheap fix
(4533e36) cannot cover. The /peer/accept handler's awaiting_approval
branch now requires an approvalToken matching the one stored on the
local peer row before promoting to active. Without a match:
- autoAccept=0 falls through to queueApprovalRequest (no bypass; new
approval-request queued, existing awaiting_approval row untouched).
- autoAccept=1 falls back to permissive promotion (no regression vs
prior behavior, since autoAccept=1 would accept any inbound regardless).
Successful match also deletes any stale approval-request row for the
origin to prevent debris accumulation from prior bypass attempts.
Refactor: queueing path extracted to a top-level queueApprovalRequest()
helper so both the no-existing-peer case and the awaiting_approval
mismatch fallback share one implementation. Helper generates a fresh
single-use token on every call.
Adds 'accept_awaiting_approval_fallback' variant to PeerActivationReason
to distinguish the autoAccept=1 fallback path from the verified path
in onPeerActivated audit logs.
Spec §3.5, §3.6.
Test counts: 289 → 301 (+12).
- 202 response: parse approvalToken from body and store on the local
federation_peers row alongside status='awaiting_approval'. Legacy
receivers that omit the field result in null stored token, handled
gracefully by the verification logic landing in subsequent commits.
- 200 response: clear approvalToken in the same UPDATE that sets
status='active' (single-use consumption per spec §3.2).
Test coverage: 4 tests in federationPeering.approvalToken.test.ts covering
JSON token, missing token (legacy), non-JSON body, and 200 clear after
prior token storage.
Nullable text columns on federation_peers and peer_approval_requests.
Existing rows degrade gracefully (NULL token) per spec §5; the verification
logic landing in subsequent commits routes legacy null-token state through
the existing autoAccept gate.
Closes the auto-reconnect trust-bypass: any code path calling
ensurePeered(remote) on an instance with autoAcceptPeering=0 could
previously bypass the admin gate by initiating a fresh handshake to the
remote, which the remote then accepted against its existing
awaiting_approval row.
The trigger surfaced was stores/instanceStore.ts:1010 — the silent
.catch(() => {}) auto-reconnect that fires for any user with the
remote in their replicatedInstances (commonly: any admin). Anyone with
that profile reloading their session activated peering on both sides
without any admin approval action.
Surgical fix: ensurePeered now returns rejected when an unresolved
inbound peer_approval_requests row exists for the target origin. The
legitimate admin-approve flow (routes/federation.ts:1089) does not call
ensurePeered; it deletes the approval-request and does its own direct
fetch to /peer/accept, so this check does not block legitimate approvals.
The receiver-side trust assumption at routes/federation.ts:619-645
(awaiting_approval branch in /peer/accept) still has the same flaw
— an adversarial peer that knows the timing could re-handshake at the
right moment to flip the receiver to active. That deeper trust-model
rework is plan-grade work tracked at internal notes
2026-04-26-peer-handshake-trust-model.md.
The friend contextId must be byte-identical on both peers for a given
canonical pair regardless of argument order. Initial-sync backfill keys
on contextId; if the two sides computed different values for the same
friendship, missed events would never reconcile.
The local branch was reusing friendRequestPayload (built for
friend_request_received with user=sender) for the sender-side
friend_request_sent broadcast. Tab B on the sender would render
the sender's own avatar where the target's should appear.
Match the federated branch — sent broadcast carries target.
Refactors the POST handler into handleLocalFriendRequest + handleFederatedFriendRequest helpers. The federated branch resolves the target domain, ensures peering, looks up the remote user, creates/hydrates a replicated stub, and writes a transactional (friend_requests + mutation_log + outbox) event with relayMessageId set. Also exports hydrateReplicatedUserProfile from federation.ts and adds the T11 happy-path test.
Nullable indexed column tracking the entityId of the originating relay
event for federated friend requests. Used by the rollback hook in
federationRollback.ts to locate and delete rows when a federated
friend_request_create is permanently rejected (spec §5).
Per code-review suggestion: add a brief comment explaining why
module-level sqlite/testDb/app reassignment works (mock getter
closes over the current binding) and what would break it
(top-level it, .concurrent describe). Prevents a future foot-gun.
Registration canonicalizes usernames to lowercase (auth.ts:32),
but the friend-request endpoint compared with strict eq() against
raw user input, so 'Bob' returned 404 even when 'bob' existed.
Trim and lowercase before lookup, matching the rest of the auth
boundary. Empty-after-trim now returns 400 (was: 404).
Tests appended to social.test.ts as a second describe block
sharing the harness from Task 1.
Drop the file-path reference per code-review suggestion (paths in
comments rot); keep the load-bearing why — substring of the domain
matches every stub because stubs are stored as <homeUserId>@<domain>.
Tombstoned users, replicated federated stubs, and users with
discoverable=0 were all surfacing in Add Friend search results.
Add the three WHERE filters that /api/social/discover already
applies. Federated users continue to be surfaced via the
client-side cross-instance fan-out in socialStore.searchUsers.
New tests: social.test.ts covers all five filter cases plus
existing self-exclusion and displayName-match behaviours.
