- Partners list with name/domain/status/customers/margin + Create modal
- Partner detail: contract card, contact card, customers table, attach modal,
terminate (soft-delete) danger card
- Operator proxies for /partners + /partners/:slug/tenants
- platform-api: add partnerId Prop to Tenant schema. The field was being
silently dropped by Mongoose because the schema didn't declare it.
- tenants.service: rewrite update() to build $set/$unset explicitly and cast
partnerId via new Types.ObjectId(). Handles detach via $unset so the field
vanishes from the doc cleanly.
Operator can now manage tenants end-to-end from the UI:
- pages/tenants/index.vue — list with status/plan/domains/created/
provisioning-state columns, search by slug or name, status chips
with live counts (all/active/pending/suspended), click-through
to detail
- pages/tenants/[slug].vue — 7-tab detail (Overview, Users, Resources,
Billing, Audit, Support, Danger zone)
- 3 tabs hit real backends: Overview (identity + billing fields),
Users (lazy-loaded via new GET /tenants/:slug/users endpoint),
Resources (live provisioning state per integration + Reconcile button)
- 3 tabs render mock fixtures with warn-tone "mock" badges: Billing
(Stripe placeholder), Audit (sample log lines), Support (placeholder
pending the ticket queue work)
- Danger zone: 3 real-backend cards (Suspend / Resume / Soft-delete),
each gated by a ConfirmDialog modal. Verified live — clicked
Suspend on acme, status flipped to 'suspended' in Mongo, then
Resumed back to 'active'
platform-api additions:
- GET /tenants/:slug/users returns users with this tenant in their
tenantIds, sorted by last login. Same authorization rule as the
existing /tenants/:slug — platform admins always pass,
non-admins must be a member of the tenant
- tenants.module imports User schema for the new lookup
New components (apps/operator/components/):
- Tabs.vue — horizontal strip with optional per-tab counts, v-model
- ConfirmDialog.vue — Teleport-to-body modal, Escape/backdrop close,
danger/primary tone for the confirm button
Server proxy infrastructure (apps/operator/server/):
- utils/platform-api.ts — single helper encapsulating
access-token-from-session + bearer-forward + error normalization.
Every operator proxy route is now a one-liner against this helper
- api/tenants/index.get.ts, [slug]/{index.get,index.patch,index.delete,
users.get,suspend.post,resume.post,reconcile.post}.ts
Two real bugs found and fixed during the smoke test:
- Mongoose subdocument `_id` leaks into JSON when iterating
tenant.provisioningStatus. Switched to an explicit
`['authentik', 'stalwart', 'ocis']` whitelist in both v-fors
- Documents created before provisioningErrors was added (like the
acme tenant) don't have the field at all in JSON. Use optional
chaining (`tenant.provisioningErrors?.[k]`) instead of bracket
access. Without it: 'Cannot read properties of undefined (reading
"authentik")' during the Resources tab render
Operator portal now wears its real chrome instead of placeholder spans.
Sidebar + topbar + page header all rendered against the carbon palette
from tokens.css.
Components ported from the source design (operator-app.jsx,
platform-ui.jsx, operator-screens.jsx) as Vue 3 SFCs in
apps/operator/components/:
Foundation: NodeMark (copied from portal), UiIcon (expanded to 31 icons
covering sidebar/topbar/sort/arrows)
Primitives: Card (3 surface variants), UiButton (primary / secondary /
ghost / dark / danger × sm / md / lg), DataTable (header + rows),
Badge (7 tones), Avatar (deterministic palette by name hash), Mono,
Eyebrow, StatusDot, PageHeader (with actions slot)
Shell: OpSidebar (collapsible 232<->56px, 12 nav items in 4 sections,
active-row highlight from route, badge slot, brand + user footer);
OpTopbar (env badge with prod/staging/dev variants, palette trigger
stub for the ⌘K work in O.8, on-call pill, bell, avatar)
Layouts: layouts/default.vue wires sidebar + topbar + slot; layouts/blank.vue
is used by the login page (definePageMeta layout:'blank'). app.vue now
wraps NuxtPage in NuxtLayout (the missing piece — without it Nuxt warns
"Your project has layouts but the <NuxtLayout /> component has not been
used" and renders nothing chrome-wise).
Composable composables/useSidebar.ts holds the collapsed state shared
between OpSidebar's toggle button and layouts/default.vue's ⌘[ keyboard
shortcut.
Verified in the browser:
- Sidebar renders all 12 nav links with section dividers, env badge shows
PROD, PageHeader resolves to the user's display name from
useOidcAuth().user
- Collapse toggle flips sidebar width 232↔56; nav rows become icon-only
- Smoke test on the placeholder home still returns 409 for the seeded
test-partner (token forwarding survives the layout refactor)
Gotcha documented in the plan: Vite 7.3 added a strict
server.allowedHosts check that returns plaintext 403 for any host header
that isn't the dev origin. The customer portal pre-dates this Vite
version; operator needs allowedHosts: ['operator.dezky.local'] in
nuxt.config.ts under vite.server.
Pages/index.vue replaces the bare HTML placeholder from O.3 with the
new PageHeader + Card primitives — same smoke-test functionality, much
better visual fidelity.
Real screen content (Tenants, Partners, Infrastructure, etc.) lands in
O.5+. This commit is the chrome, the smoke test, and the verification
that the design system primitives compose correctly.
New Nuxt 3 app at apps/operator/ — internal admin portal on its own domain
(operator.dezky.local), own OAuth client (dezky-operator), own session
secrets, own cookies. Customer and operator surfaces can't decrypt each
other's session state.
OAuth flow verified end-to-end:
- GET / → middleware redirect to /auth/login
- User clicks Sign in → /auth/oidc/login → bounces to Authentik with
client_id=dezky-operator, scope includes 'groups'
- Authentik checks dezky-platform-admins group binding (added in O.1),
silent-reauths via the existing auth.dezky.local session
- Returns to /auth/oidc/callback with code, exchanges for token,
creates session cookie on operator.dezky.local
- Lands on pages/index.vue placeholder dashboard
Smoke test 'Create partner "test-partner"' button on the placeholder home
exercises the full operator-only authorization chain:
- 1st call: 200, partner created in Mongo
- 2nd call: 409 'already exists' (idempotency holds, token still valid)
- Same call from the customer portal: 403 'requires operator-scoped
token' (audience guard rejects dezky-portal aud)
JwtAuthGuard now multi-issuer in addition to multi-audience. Each
Authentik OAuth provider mints tokens with its own per-app iss URL
(.../application/o/<slug>/), so the guard accepts a comma-separated
AUTHENTIK_ISSUER. The audience-only fix from O.2 wasn't sufficient —
issuer is validated separately by jose.jwtVerify and was still pinned
to dezky-portal alone, yielding 'unexpected iss claim value' rejections.
Compose changes: new 'operator' service (Node 20 alpine, pnpm install +
nuxt dev, mkcert CA mount, traefik labels for operator.dezky.local +
TLS); new operator_node_modules volume; operator.dezky.local added to
traefik's Docker network aliases. Distinct OPERATOR_NUXT_OIDC_* session
secrets pulled from .env (gitignored, generated via openssl).
Real operator screens (sidebar, topbar, tenants, partners, etc.) come
in O.4. This commit is pure scaffolding + the security boundary proof.
JwtAuthGuard now accepts a comma-separated AUTHENTIK_AUDIENCE
('dezky-portal,dezky-operator'). jose.jwtVerify takes an array and succeeds
on any match — both customer-portal and operator-portal tokens validate
against this service. Per-endpoint guards restrict further.
New OperatorGuard enforces operator-only mutations:
1. JWT audience claim includes 'dezky-operator' (proof from the token
alone that this is a privileged session)
2. ActorService-resolved User has platformAdmin=true (DB check so
revocation works without waiting for the token to expire)
Both required; either alone is insufficient.
Partner module:
- Partner schema: slug, name, domain, status, marginPct, contactInfo,
billingInfo. marginPct is one number per partner (decided in grilling)
- CRUD endpoints under @UseGuards(JwtAuthGuard, OperatorGuard) — every
partner mutation requires operator scope
- GET /partners returns each row with a computed customers count from
aggregating Tenant.partnerId. MRR aggregation deferred until
Subscription gains a price column
- GET /partners/:slug/tenants for the partner detail view
- DELETE soft-terminates (status='terminated') — never hard-delete
because tenants may still reference the partner
Tenant changes:
- partnerId?: Types.ObjectId (ref Partner, indexed sparse) added to
Tenant schema
- UpdateTenantDto accepts partnerId so PATCH can attach/detach
- POST /tenants/:slug/suspend and /resume — operator-only via
OperatorGuard. PATCH already covers plan/domains/partnerId changes
Smoke test: customer-portal session sends POST /api/partners through the
portal proxy → 403 "This endpoint requires an operator-scoped token". The
positive test (operator-token → 200) waits for O.3 when there's an
operator app to mint the right token.
apps/portal/server/api/partners/index.post.ts is a temporary verification
proxy — delete once the operator portal exists.
What landed in Authentik (runtime state, not in git):
- OAuth2 provider 'dezky-operator', confidential, PKCE, audience
dezky-operator, redirect URIs operator.dezky.local/auth/oidc/{callback,logout}
- Application 'Dezky Operator' linked to the provider
- Policy binding: dezky-platform-admins group required on the application
.env (gitignored) gained OPERATOR_OIDC_CLIENT_ID/SECRET/ISSUER.
MFA-required is deferred — Authentik enforces it via a stage binding on
the auth flow, which is app-specific config better tackled when there's
a real enrollment to gate. akadmin already has WebAuthn so the flow
prompts for it anyway.
Discovery doc at /application/o/dezky-operator/.well-known/openid-
configuration confirmed: issuer correct, scopes include 'groups'.
Two gotchas documented in OPERATOR-PLAN.md:
- Authentik 2025.10 requires invalidation_flow alongside authorization_flow
- policies/group_membership endpoint is gone; use policies/bindings with a
direct group reference instead
O.0 prep from OPERATOR-PLAN.md. Mechanical refactor before adding partner
management and operator-specific endpoints. The service now owns more than
just provisioning orchestration (it'll soon own partners, tenant lifecycle
actions, multi-audience JWT validation), so the name 'platform-api' reflects
its scope better.
What changed:
- Directory: services/provisioning/ -> services/platform-api/
- Package: @dezky/provisioning -> @dezky/platform-api
- Docker: container_name dezky-provisioning -> dezky-platform-api;
compose service key 'provisioning' -> 'platform-api'; volume
provisioning_node_modules -> platform_api_node_modules
- Portal: PROVISIONING_INTERNAL_URL env var -> PLATFORM_API_INTERNAL_URL,
default URL http://provisioning:3001 -> http://platform-api:3001 in all
three proxy routes (me.get.ts, tenants/index.post.ts, tenants/[slug]/
reconcile.post.ts), plus NUXT_API_BASE updated
- Health endpoint service identifier and main.ts log lines updated to
'dezky-platform-api'
- Docs swept: README, CLAUDE.md, SERVICES.md, AUTHENTIK-SETUP.md,
NEXT-STEPS.md, TROUBLESHOOTING.md, OPERATOR-PLAN.md, traefik/dynamic.yml
What deliberately stays:
- Internal module names ProvisioningService / ProvisioningModule (those
describe an orchestration sub-concern, not the service's purpose)
- Tenant.provisioningStatus / provisioningErrors field names (state
per integration, not service name)
- File services/platform-api/src/tenants/provisioning.service.ts
- 'Hetzner provisioning' references in production-prep docs (infrastructure
provisioning, unrelated)
Verified end-to-end after rename: /api/me returns 200 with profile + 2
tenants + subscription, /api/tenants/dezky/reconcile returns 200 with
Authentik integration still ok.
OPERATOR-PLAN.md O.0 checkboxes ticked.
OPERATOR-PLAN.md records the decisions from the design review:
- Scope: C-visual (full UI fidelity, mock data for most screens) but real
CRUD for tenants and partners from day one
- Lives at apps/operator/ as a separate Nuxt app, separate domain, separate
Authentik OAuth client (dezky-operator), aud-claim distinguishes operator
vs portal tokens
- Backend stays as a single NestJS service; rename
services/provisioning -> services/platform-api as a prep commit
- Partner schema designed: slug/name/domain/status/marginPct/contactInfo;
Tenant gains optional partnerId; counts and MRR are computed at query time
- Impersonation: visual stub now (modal + banner, no-op toast); real OAuth
Token Exchange flow recorded as the first follow-up task
Also lists follow-up tasks (real audit log, feature flag backend, incident
management, partner portal) and out-of-scope items so the next grilling
session has a starting point.
Pointer added in NEXT-STEPS.md under a new 'Operator portal' track.
Honest status for the data-model + provisioning phases. Lists the smoke
test that verified the chain works end-to-end and points at the upstream
docs for the JMAP and libregraph follow-up work.
Implements Phase 3 from docs/NEXT-STEPS.md.
Mongoose schemas (services/provisioning/src/schemas/):
- Tenant: slug, name, status, plan, domains, billingInfo, plus handles for
Authentik group, OCIS space, and Stalwart domain (set in Phase 4)
- User: authentikSubjectId, tenantIds[], email, name, role, platformAdmin flag
- Subscription: tenantId, plan, status, Stripe IDs (unused until Phase 4)
Auth (services/provisioning/src/auth/):
- JwtAuthGuard verifies Authentik access tokens against the provider's JWKS
with issuer + audience checks. Uses NODE_EXTRA_CA_CERTS to trust the
mkcert root for the local Authentik cert
- ActorService resolves the verified JWT into a Mongo User document — every
controller reads tenantIds + platformAdmin from the DB, not the token
- CurrentUser decorator extracts the JWT payload onto controllers
CRUD modules:
- /tenants, /users, /subscriptions with create/read/update/delete
- /users/me upserts the caller's User record on every request, syncing email,
name, tenantIds, and platformAdmin from the JWT's groups claim — the only
place we read JWT.groups outside the bootstrap
Why DB-derived authz: putting all group memberships in the JWT doesn't scale
past ~50 tenants per user (header/cookie size limits, no mid-session
revocation, stale data until re-login). JWT now carries identity only; the
DB is the source of truth for who can see what.
Seed (SeedService.OnApplicationBootstrap): idempotent creation of the
default 'dezky' tenant + matching subscription. User records are created on
first /users/me hit.
Infrastructure:
- Traefik label exposes provisioning at https://api.dezky.local (dev only)
- api.dezky.local added to Docker network aliases on Traefik
- mkcert root CA mounted into the provisioning container for JWKS fetch
- Authentik 'groups' scope mapping created + attached to dezky-portal
provider; portal now requests it as a scope
- nuxt.config.ts portal: exposeAccessToken=true so Nitro forwards token;
NUXT_OIDC_TOKEN_KEY fixed to base64-encoded 32 bytes (was hex, causing
"Invalid key length" once exposeAccessToken turned on)
Portal: apps/portal/server/api/me.get.ts is a scaffolding route that
forwards the user's access token to provisioning and returns profile +
tenants + subscriptions — verifies the full chain end to end.
Brings up Dezky's local development environment end-to-end:
Infrastructure (docker-compose):
- Traefik v3.7 reverse proxy with mkcert TLS (v3.2 couldn't speak Docker API 1.54)
- Postgres + Mongo + Redis with healthchecks and init script for per-service users
- Authentik 2025.10 (server + worker) as OIDC IdP
- Stalwart v0.16 mail server (image renamed from stalwartlabs/mail-server)
- OCIS 7.0 with PROXY_TLS=false and OCIS_CONFIG_DIR=/etc/ocis so init writes
where the server reads
- Collabora office, plus the portal + provisioning service stubs
- Docker network aliases on Traefik so containers resolve auth.dezky.local etc.
through the network (not host /etc/hosts)
- Docker socket mount parameterized for macOS Docker Desktop symlink path
Authentik provisioning (done via API after stack boot):
- ocis-provider (public client) + OCIS Files application
- dezky-portal provider (confidential) + Dezky Portal application
- Admin API token bound to akadmin manually since 2025.10's
AUTHENTIK_BOOTSTRAP_TOKEN env var doesn't auto-materialize a token row
Portal (apps/portal):
- Nuxt 3 with nuxt-oidc-auth 1.0.0-beta.11 against generic 'oidc' preset
- Global auth middleware; login at /auth/oidc/login redirects to Authentik
- Visual implementation of Claude Design 'Auth' canvas: AuthShell, NodeMark,
Auth* sub-components, design tokens as CSS custom properties
- Pages: auth/login, auth/expired, auth/disabled, index (post-login landing)
- mkcert root CA mounted into the portal so Node fetch trusts Authentik's
self-signed cert (NODE_EXTRA_CA_CERTS) — dev only
Docs:
- AUTHENTIK-SETUP.md updated with manual token bind + portal provider scripted
alternative
- NEXT-STEPS.md: Phase 1 and Phase 2 marked done with file locations and
dev-mode caveats
Dev-mode shortcuts that need to be revisited before prod:
- skipAccessTokenParsing on the OIDC config
- NODE_EXTRA_CA_CERTS mkcert mount
- Bootstrap password still the generated value in .env
- Authentik admin token (dezky-bootstrap-token) is non-expiring
