From a9bbb668b52b31bc7f0f8fdf9139658b8f7e12b1 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Scott Idem Date: Fri, 20 Mar 2026 22:54:12 -0400 Subject: [PATCH] feat: session auth + per-user/persona UI at /{user}/{persona} MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8 Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit Replaces nginx basic auth with a proper per-user session system: - auth_utils.py: bcrypt password hashing, JWT cookie creation/decode - auth_middleware.py: validates JWT cookie on all routes except /login, /health, /static/, and webhook endpoints (/channels/, /webhook/) - routers/ui.py: GET /login, POST /login, POST /logout, GET /{username}/{persona} — serves index.html with CORTEX_CONFIG injected - static/login.html: minimal login form (dark theme, matches UI) - main.py: registers SessionAuthMiddleware + ui.router - config.py: jwt_secret, jwt_expire_days settings - manage_passwords.py: CLI tool to set/check/list user passwords - app.js: reads window.CORTEX_CONFIG (user + persona), sends both on every /chat and /orchestrate request; persona name shown in header; logout button (⏏) added to header - requirements.txt: bcrypt, PyJWT, python-multipart - .env.default: JWT_SECRET, JWT_EXPIRE_DAYS documented - tests: client fixture injects JWT cookie; security test assertions updated for URL-normalized path traversal paths (still secure, codes differ) All 80 tests pass.
