Patrick Buckley 047680d669 Add user identity, JWT auth, and admin console UI (#23)
* Add user identity, JWT auth, and admin console UI (#23)

JWT-based authentication with three token types: config-file (hmac,
backward-compat), API tokens (ts_ prefix, SHA-256 hashed), and JWTs
(HS256, 24h expiry). Username:password login via bcrypt. Hierarchical
scopes: read < write < approve.

New tables: users (username, password_hash), api_tokens (token_hash,
scopes, expires), channel_users (future channel integrations). user_id
column added to sessions and workstreams for attribution.

Console owns admin CRUD (6 endpoints under /api/admin/). Server
validates JWTs locally with shared signing secret. Public /api/auth/setup
endpoint for first-time admin creation (atomic, only works with zero
users). turnstone-admin CLI for user/token management.

Admin console UI: Users and Tokens tabs with full CRUD modals, scope
badges, token show-once with clipboard copy, keyboard accessibility
(focus traps, Escape, arrow key tabs, ARIA roles).

Login UI redesigned: username:password primary, token toggle for legacy,
setup wizard auto-detected via /api/auth/status. Python + TypeScript
SDKs updated with login(username, password), authStatus(), setup().

New docs/security.md + diagram 15-auth-architecture.puml. All existing
docs updated. OpenAPI specs include all new endpoints. 64 new tests
(1023 total). Dependencies: PyJWT, bcrypt.

* Fix auth bugs, XSS vector, and doc inaccuracies from PR #23 review

Address Copilot review feedback: escape double quotes in escapeHtml()
to prevent XSS in HTML attributes, add JWT validation fallback so
config tokens containing dots still work, add user_id to
AuthLoginResponse schema, return created field from admin_create_user,
and correct five documentation files to match actual API behavior.

# turnstone Web Server API Reference
## Overview
> See also: [MQ Protocol diagram](diagrams/png/06-mq-protocol.png) | [Message Routing diagram](diagrams/png/07-message-routing.png) | [Redis Key Schema diagram](diagrams/png/08-redis-key-schema.png)
`turnstone-server` exposes a browser-based chat UI backed by a
**Starlette** ASGI application served by **uvicorn**. The server uses
**Server-Sent Events (SSE)** via `sse-starlette` for real-time streaming
and **HTTP POST** for user actions.
All API responses use `Content-Type: application/json` unless otherwise noted.
CORS headers (`Access-Control-Allow-Origin: *`) are included on every response.
The server supports multiple concurrent **workstreams** (tabs), each backed by
an independent `ChatSession` and event queue.
---
## API Versioning
All API endpoints use the `/v1/` prefix. Non-API endpoints (`/`, `/health`, `/metrics`, `/openapi.json`, `/docs`, `/static/*`, `/shared/*`) are unversioned.
### Interactive Documentation
- **OpenAPI spec**: `GET /openapi.json` — machine-readable OpenAPI 3.1 schema
- **Swagger UI**: `GET /docs` — interactive API explorer (loads from CDN)
### Client SDKs
Typed client libraries for programmatic access to both the server and console APIs.
**Python** (included in the `turnstone` package):
```python
from turnstone.sdk import TurnstoneServer
with TurnstoneServer("http://localhost:8080", token="tok_xxx") as client:
ws = client.create_workstream(name="demo")
result = client.send_and_wait("Hello!", ws.ws_id)
print(result.content)
```
Async variant: `AsyncTurnstoneServer` / `AsyncTurnstoneConsole`.
**TypeScript** (`sdk/typescript/`):
```typescript
import { TurnstoneServer } from "@turnstone/sdk";
const client = new TurnstoneServer({ baseUrl: "http://localhost:8080", token: "tok_xxx" });
const ws = await client.createWorkstream({ name: "demo" });
const result = await client.sendAndWait("Hello!", ws.ws_id);
console.log(result.content);
```
---
## Authentication
When auth is enabled (`[auth].enabled = true` or `TURNSTONE_AUTH_ENABLED=1`), all API endpoints except public paths require a valid token.
### Sending Credentials
Include a token in one of two ways:
- **Bearer header**: `Authorization: Bearer <token>`
- **Cookie**: `turnstone_auth=<token>` (set automatically by the login endpoint)
The server accepts three token types:
| Type | Format | Example |
|------|--------|---------|
| JWT | Base64 segments separated by dots | `eyJhbG...` |
| API token | `ts_` prefix + 64 hex chars | `ts_a1b2c3d4...` |
| Config token | Arbitrary string from `config.toml` | `my-secret-token` |
JWTs are the recommended credential for browser sessions. API tokens are suitable for programmatic access and CI/CD. Config tokens are a simple option for single-node deployments.
### `POST /v1/api/auth/login`
Authenticate with credentials and receive a JWT. Accepts two credential formats:
**Username + password:**
```json
{"username": "alice", "password": "hunter2"}
```
**API token:**
```json
{"token": "ts_a1b2c3d4e5f6..."}
```
**Response (success):** `200`
```json
{
"status": "ok",
"role": "full",
"scopes": "approve,read,write",
"jwt": "eyJhbGciOiJIUzI1NiIs...",
"user_id": "u_abc123"
}
```
The response also sets a `turnstone_auth` HttpOnly cookie containing the JWT.
**Response (failure):** `401`
```json
{"error": "Invalid credentials"}
```
---
### `POST /v1/api/auth/logout`
Clears the `turnstone_auth` cookie. No request body required.
**Response:** `200`
```json
{"status": "ok"}
```
The response includes a `Set-Cookie` header that expires the auth cookie.
---
### `GET /v1/api/auth/status`
Returns the current authentication state. Works with or without a valid token.
**Response (authenticated):** `200`
```json
{
"authenticated": true,
"user_id": "u_abc123",
"scopes": ["approve", "read", "write"],
"source": "jwt"
}
```
**Response (not authenticated):** `200`
```json
{
"authenticated": false,
"user_id": null,
"scopes": [],
"source": null
}
```
**Response (auth disabled):** `200`
```json
{
"authenticated": false,
"auth_enabled": false
}
```
---
### `POST /v1/api/auth/setup`
Creates the first admin user when no users exist in the database. This is a
public endpoint (no authentication required) that only succeeds when auth is
enabled and the user database is empty. Both the server and console expose
this endpoint.
**Request body:**
```json
{
"username": "admin",
"display_name": "Admin",
"password": "strongpass"
}
```
| Field | Type | Required | Validation |
|----------------|--------|----------|-----------------------------|
| `username` | string | yes | 1-64 ASCII characters |
| `display_name` | string | yes | Non-empty |
| `password` | string | yes | Minimum 8 characters |
**Response (success):** `200`
```json
{
"status": "ok",
"user_id": "u_abc123",
"username": "admin",
"role": "full",
"scopes": "approve,read,write",
"jwt": "eyJhbGciOiJIUzI1NiIs..."
}
```
The response also sets a `turnstone_auth` HttpOnly cookie containing the JWT.
**Response (already set up):** `409`
```json
{"error": "Setup already completed"}
```
Returned when one or more users already exist in the database.
**Response (auth disabled):** `400`
```json
{"error": "Auth is not enabled"}
```
---
## Endpoints
### `GET /`
Serves the embedded single-page application (HTML, CSS, and JavaScript inlined
in a single document). The SPA connects to the SSE and POST endpoints listed
below.
**Response:** `text/html; charset=utf-8`
---
### `GET /v1/api/events?ws_id=<id>`
Opens a Server-Sent Events stream scoped to a single workstream. The connection
remains open indefinitely; the server pushes events as they occur.
**Query parameters:**
| Parameter | Type | Required | Description |
|-----------|--------|----------|----------------------------|
| `ws_id` | string | yes | Workstream identifier |
**Error:** Returns `404` with `{"error": "Unknown workstream"}` if `ws_id` is
not recognized.
#### Connection lifecycle
1. **`connected`** -- sent immediately on connect.
```json
{
"type": "connected",
"model": "kappa_20b_131k",
"model_alias": "default",
"skip_permissions": false
}
```
`skip_permissions` reflects the workstream's current auto-approve state. It is
`true` if the server was started with `--skip-permissions` or if the user chose
"Always approve" via the approval prompt during the session.
2. **`history`** -- replays the full conversation history so the client can
rebuild its UI.
```json
{
"type": "history",
"messages": [
{"role": "user", "content": "Hello"},
{"role": "assistant", "content": "Hi there!", "tool_calls": null},
{"role": "tool", "content": "..."}
]
}
```
Each message in the `messages` array has:
| Field | Type | Description |
|--------------|-------------------|-----------------------------------------------|
| `role` | string | `"user"`, `"assistant"`, or `"tool"` |
| `content` | string or null | Text content of the message |
| `tool_calls` | array or null | Present only on assistant messages with calls |
Each entry in `tool_calls`:
| Field | Type | Description |
|-------------|--------|------------------------------------|
| `name` | string | Function name (e.g. `"bash"`) |
| `arguments` | string | JSON-encoded argument string |
#### Streaming events
After the initial `connected` and `history` frames, the server streams
real-time events as the model generates a response:
**`thinking_start`** -- the model has begun generating (shown as a spinner).
```json
{"type": "thinking_start"}
```
**`thinking_stop`** -- the spinner phase is over.
```json
{"type": "thinking_stop"}
```
**`reasoning`** -- a chunk of chain-of-thought reasoning text.
```json
{"type": "reasoning", "text": "Let me think about this..."}
```
**`content`** -- a chunk of the assistant's visible reply.
```json
{"type": "content", "text": "Here is the answer: "}
```
**`stream_end`** -- the model has finished generating. The client should
finalize any in-progress assistant message.
```json
{"type": "stream_end"}
```
**`tool_info`** -- one or more tool calls that were auto-approved (no user
action required).
```json
{
"type": "tool_info",
"items": [
{
"call_id": "call_abc123",
"header": "bash: ls -la",
"preview": "",
"func_name": "bash",
"approval_label": "bash",
"needs_approval": false,
"error": null
}
]
}
```
**`approve_request`** -- one or more tool calls that require user approval. The
client must respond via `POST /v1/api/approve`.
```json
{
"type": "approve_request",
"items": [
{
"call_id": "call_def456",
"header": "bash: rm -rf /tmp/build",
"preview": "",
"func_name": "bash",
"approval_label": "bash",
"needs_approval": true,
"error": null
}
]
}
```
Each item in `items` (shared by `tool_info` and `approve_request`):
| Field | Type | Description |
|------------------|-------------|--------------------------------------------------|
| `call_id` | string | Unique tool call ID (links chunks to results) |
| `header` | string | Human-readable header line for the tool call |
| `preview` | string | Diff or argument preview (may be empty) |
| `func_name` | string | Function name (e.g. `"bash"`, `"edit_file"`) |
| `approval_label` | string | Display label for the approval prompt |
| `needs_approval` | bool | Whether this call requires explicit approval |
| `error` | string/null | Error description if the call was malformed |
**`tool_output_chunk`** -- incremental streaming output from a bash tool execution. Sent line-by-line as stdout is produced. The `call_id` identifies the specific tool invocation (multiple bash tools may run in parallel).
```json
{"type": "tool_output_chunk", "call_id": "call_abc123", "chunk": "Building project...\n"}
```
**`tool_result`** -- final output from a completed tool execution. The `call_id` matches the corresponding `tool_info`/`approve_request` item and any preceding `tool_output_chunk` events. For bash tools, this arrives after all streaming chunks and includes both stdout and stderr.
```json
{"type": "tool_result", "call_id": "call_abc123", "name": "bash", "output": "file1.py\nfile2.py\n"}
```
**`status`** -- token usage statistics, sent after each model turn.
```json
{
"type": "status",
"prompt_tokens": 1024,
"completion_tokens": 256,
"total_tokens": 1280,
"context_window": 131072,
"pct": 1.0,
"effort": "medium"
}
```
| Field | Type | Description |
|---------------------|--------|----------------------------------------------|
| `prompt_tokens` | int | Tokens in the prompt |
| `completion_tokens` | int | Tokens generated by the model |
| `total_tokens` | int | `prompt_tokens + completion_tokens` |
| `context_window` | int | Total context window size in tokens |
| `pct` | float | Percentage of context window used |
| `effort` | string | Reasoning effort level (`low`/`medium`/`high`) |
**`plan_review`** -- the model is proposing a plan and wants feedback. The
client must respond via `POST /v1/api/plan`.
```json
{"type": "plan_review", "content": "Step 1: ...\nStep 2: ..."}
```
**`info`** -- an informational message (e.g. command output).
```json
{"type": "info", "message": "Session cleared."}
```
**`error`** -- an error message.
```json
{"type": "error", "message": "Error: connection timed out"}
```
**`busy_error`** -- sent when a new message arrives while the model is already
processing.
```json
{"type": "busy_error", "message": "Already processing a request. Please wait."}
```
**`clear_ui`** -- instructs the client to clear all displayed messages (sent
after `/clear` or `/new` commands).
```json
{"type": "clear_ui"}
```
#### Keepalive
The server sends an SSE comment every 5 seconds when no events are pending:
```
: keepalive
```
This prevents proxies and browsers from closing the connection due to
inactivity.
#### Generation mechanism
Each new SSE connection to a workstream increments an internal
`_sse_generation` counter. The previous SSE handler detects the generation
mismatch and exits its event loop, ensuring only one active SSE connection per
workstream at a time. The event queue is drained of stale events before the new
connection begins streaming.
---
### `GET /v1/api/events/global`
Opens a Server-Sent Events stream that broadcasts state-change events across
all workstreams. This is used by the tab bar to display per-workstream activity
indicators.
**Events:**
```json
{"type": "ws_state", "ws_id": "abc123", "state": "thinking"}
```
| Field | Type | Description |
|---------|--------|--------------------------|
| `ws_id` | string | Workstream identifier |
| `state` | string | Current workstream state |
Possible `state` values:
| State | Description |
|-------------|-------------------------------------------------|
| `idle` | No active processing |
| `thinking` | Model is generating a response |
| `running` | Tool execution in progress |
| `attention` | Waiting for user input (approval or plan review)|
| `error` | An error occurred |
**Fan-out pattern:** Each connected client receives its own bounded queue
(`maxsize=500`). A dedicated fan-out thread reads from the shared global queue
and copies each event to every client queue. If a client queue is full, the
event is silently dropped for that client.
**Keepalive:** Same as `/v1/api/events` -- an SSE comment every 5 seconds.
---
### `GET /v1/api/workstreams`
Returns a list of all active workstreams.
**Response:**
```json
{
"workstreams": [
{"id": "abc123", "name": "default", "state": "idle", "session_id": "a1b2c3d4e5f6"},
{"id": "def456", "name": "hacker-news", "state": "thinking", "session_id": "c5d6e7f8a9b0"}
]
}
```
Each workstream object:
| Field | Type | Description |
|--------------|-------------|--------------------------------------------------------|
| `id` | string | Unique workstream routing identifier |
| `name` | string | Display name (alias if set, otherwise `ws-xxxx`) |
| `state` | string | Current state (see state values above) |
| `session_id` | string/null | Session ID of the workstream's `ChatSession`, used for deduplication against `/v1/api/sessions` |
---
### `GET /v1/api/sessions`
Returns a list of saved sessions from the database, ordered by most recently
updated.
**Response:**
```json
{
"sessions": [
{
"session_id": "a1b2c3d4e5f6",
"alias": "refactor",
"title": "JWT Authentication Refactor",
"created": "2026-03-01 10:00:00",
"updated": "2026-03-01 11:30:00",
"message_count": 42
}
]
}
```
Each session object:
| Field | Type | Description |
|-----------------|-------------|--------------------------------------------|
| `session_id` | string | Unique 32-char hex UUID session identifier |
| `alias` | string/null | User-assigned short name |
| `title` | string/null | LLM-generated title |
| `created` | string | ISO timestamp of session creation |
| `updated` | string | ISO timestamp of last message |
| `message_count` | int | Number of messages in the session |
| `node_id` | string/null | Server node that created the session |
| `ws_id` | string/null | Workstream the session belongs to |
---
### `POST /v1/api/send`
Sends a user message to a workstream. Spawns a daemon worker thread that calls
`session.send()` and streams results back via the SSE channel.
**Request body:**
```json
{"message": "Explain how the server works", "ws_id": "abc123"}
```
| Field | Type | Required | Description |
|-----------|--------|----------|-------------------------|
| `message` | string | yes | The user's message text |
| `ws_id` | string | yes | Target workstream ID |
**Response (success):**
```json
{"status": "ok"}
```
**Response (busy):** Returned if the workstream's worker thread is still alive
from a previous request. Also pushes a `busy_error` event to the SSE stream.
```json
{"status": "busy"}
```
**Error responses:**
| Status | Body | Condition |
|--------|------------------------------------|------------------------|
| 400 | `{"error": "Empty message"}` | Message is empty |
| 404 | `{"error": "Unknown workstream"}` | `ws_id` not found |
---
### `POST /v1/api/approve`
Responds to a tool approval request. The SSE stream must have previously sent
an `approve_request` event for the given workstream.
**Request body:**
```json
{"approved": true, "feedback": null, "always": false, "ws_id": "abc123"}
```
| Field | Type | Required | Description |
|------------|-------------|----------|--------------------------------------------------|
| `approved` | bool | yes | `true` to approve, `false` to deny |
| `feedback` | string/null | no | Optional feedback text (sent as denial reason) |
| `always` | bool | no | If `true` and `approved`, enables auto-approve |
| `ws_id` | string | yes | Target workstream ID |
When `always` is `true` and `approved` is `true`, the workstream's WebUI
instance sets `auto_approve = True`, causing all subsequent tool calls to be
automatically approved without prompting.
**Response:**
```json
{"status": "ok"}
```
**Error:** `404` with `{"error": "Unknown workstream"}` if `ws_id` is invalid.
---
### `POST /v1/api/plan`
Responds to a plan review dialog. The SSE stream must have previously sent a
`plan_review` event for the given workstream.
**Request body:**
```json
{"feedback": "", "ws_id": "abc123"}
```
| Field | Type | Required | Description |
|------------|--------|----------|---------------------------------------------------------|
| `feedback` | string | yes | Feedback text; empty string means approval |
| `ws_id` | string | yes | Target workstream ID |
To approve the plan, send an empty string for `feedback`. To reject or request
changes, send a non-empty feedback string (e.g. `"reject"` or specific
revision instructions).
**Response:**
```json
{"status": "ok"}
```
**Error:** `404` with `{"error": "Unknown workstream"}` if `ws_id` is invalid.
---
### `POST /v1/api/command`
Executes a slash command in the given workstream.
**Request body:**
```json
{"command": "/clear", "ws_id": "abc123"}
```
| Field | Type | Required | Description |
|-----------|--------|----------|------------------------------------|
| `command` | string | yes | The slash command (e.g. `/clear`) |
| `ws_id` | string | yes | Target workstream ID |
If the command is `/clear` or `/new`, the server pushes a `clear_ui` SSE event
to instruct the client to reset its message display. If the command is
`/resume`, the server pushes `clear_ui` followed by a `history` event
containing the resumed session's messages.
**Response:**
```json
{"status": "ok"}
```
**Error responses:**
| Status | Body | Condition |
|--------|------------------------------------|----------------------|
| 400 | `{"error": "Empty command"}` | Command is empty |
| 404 | `{"error": "Unknown workstream"}` | `ws_id` not found |
---
### `POST /v1/api/workstreams/new`
Creates a new workstream. The server supports up to 10 concurrent workstreams.
**Request body:**
```json
{"name": "my-ws", "model": "openai"}
```
All fields are optional. The body can be empty or an empty JSON object.
| Field | Type | Default | Description |
|----------------|--------|---------|------------------------------------------------|
| `name` | string | auto | Workstream display name |
| `model` | string | default | Model alias from the registry (`[models.*]`) |
| `auto_approve` | bool | false | Auto-approve all tool calls for this workstream |
**Response (success):**
```json
{"ws_id": "ghi789", "name": "ws-3"}
```
| Field | Type | Description |
|---------|--------|------------------------------------|
| `ws_id` | string | Unique ID of the new workstream |
| `name` | string | Auto-generated workstream name |
**Error (limit reached):**
```json
{"error": "Maximum of 10 workstreams reached"}
```
Status code: `400`
---
### `POST /v1/api/workstreams/close`
Closes and removes a workstream. The last remaining workstream cannot be
closed.
**Request body:**
```json
{"ws_id": "abc123"}
```
| Field | Type | Required | Description |
|---------|--------|----------|---------------------------|
| `ws_id` | string | yes | Workstream ID to close |
**Response (success):**
```json
{"status": "ok"}
```
**Error (last workstream):**
```json
{"error": "Cannot close last workstream"}
```
Status code: `400`
---
### `OPTIONS` (any path)
Handles CORS preflight requests.
**Response headers:**
```
Access-Control-Allow-Origin: *
Access-Control-Allow-Methods: GET, POST, OPTIONS
Access-Control-Allow-Headers: Content-Type
```
Status code: `200` with an empty body.
---
## Error Handling
| Condition | Behavior |
|------------------------------------|------------------------------------------------------------|
| Malformed or unparseable JSON body | Treated as an empty dict `{}`; missing fields use defaults |
| Unknown `ws_id` | `404` with `{"error": "Unknown workstream"}` |
| Unknown path (GET or POST) | `404` with plain-text body `Not found` |
| Empty `message` on `/v1/api/send` | `400` with `{"error": "Empty message"}` |
| Empty `command` on `/v1/api/command` | `400` with `{"error": "Empty command"}` |
| Rate limit exceeded | `429` with `Retry-After` header (see below) |
### `429 Too Many Requests`
Returned when the per-IP rate limiter rejects a request. `/health` and
`/metrics` are exempt.
**Response headers:**
```
Retry-After: 2
```
**Response body:**
```json
{"error": "Rate limit exceeded", "retry_after": 2}
```
| Field | Type | Description |
|---------------|--------|------------------------------------------------|
| `error` | string | `"Rate limit exceeded"` |
| `retry_after` | number | Seconds until the client should retry |
---
## SSE Reconnection
The embedded JavaScript client implements exponential backoff for SSE
reconnection:
| Parameter | Value |
|--------------------|-------------------------------------------|
| Base delay | 1 second |
| Backoff multiplier | 2x on each consecutive failure |
| Maximum delay | 30 seconds |
| Reset | Delay resets to 1 second on first success |
On reconnect, the server replays the full conversation history via the
`history` event, so the client can rebuild its UI state without data loss. The
same reconnection strategy applies to both the per-workstream SSE stream
(`/v1/api/events`) and the global state stream (`/v1/api/events/global`).
---
## Observability
### `GET /health`
Returns server health status. Always returns `200 OK` while the server process
is running. `"status": "degraded"` indicates the server is up but the LLM
backend is unreachable. Suitable for load-balancer health checks and Kubernetes
liveness probes.
**Response:** `application/json`
```json
