These workplans exist only in the retired local hub. Their random pre-ADR-007 identifiers are refused by C-06 as stale references, so they cannot be registered. Deriving from the canonical record id takes no identity from anything: central does not hold them and the old ids die with the cache. Records central already holds were deliberately left untouched.

# SSO access control for ops console and Temporal UI
|
||
|
||
## Origin
|
||
|
||
ACTIVITY-WP-0024 shipped the operator automation console (`/ops/ui`) with
|
||
ClusterIP + port-forward access and a shared operator token for mutations.
|
||
Operators also use Temporal Web UI (`actcore-temporal-ui:8080`) for workflow
|
||
debugging; the ops UI now deep-links to it.
|
||
|
||
**Pain:** port-forward + kubeconfig switching is fragile; shared token is not
|
||
identity-aware. **Goal:** proper browser access via SSO without port-forward.
|
||
|
||
Closes SCOPE **G10** (API external access) for the **ops and Temporal UIs**
|
||
(not necessarily for unauthenticated programmatic API from the public internet).
|
||
|
||
## Goal
|
||
|
||
Expose **activity-core ops UI** and **Temporal Web UI** behind authenticated
|
||
ingress with **Keycloak / key-cape OIDC SSO**, so an authorized operator can:
|
||
|
||
1. Open HTTPS URLs in a browser (no `kubectl port-forward`)
|
||
2. Authenticate with org SSO (MFA per IAM profile where required)
|
||
3. Use ops console mutations under **their identity** (not only a shared token)
|
||
4. Open Temporal UI under the same access policy
|
||
|
||
## Non-goals
|
||
|
||
- Public anonymous access to `/ops` or Temporal UI
|
||
- Replacing Temporal’s own RBAC model with fine-grained multi-tenant Temporal
|
||
namespaces for all of Coulomb (single activity-core Temporal is fine for MVP)
|
||
- Full API productization for third-party clients (focus is **human UI access**)
|
||
- Moving Temporal server hosting ownership out of the activity-core namespace
|
||
(unless railiance-platform already owns that path)
|
||
|
||
## Architecture sketch (proposed)
|
||
|
||
```
|
||
Browser
|
||
│ HTTPS
|
||
▼
|
||
Ingress (TLS) ──► oauth2-proxy / key-cape edge ── OIDC ──► Keycloak (key-cape)
|
||
│ │
|
||
│ allowlisted groups │ identity headers / session
|
||
▼ ▼
|
||
actcore-api (/ops, /ops/ui) actcore-temporal-ui
|
||
mutations: require SSO subject
|
||
(retire shared token as primary; keep break-glass optional)
|
||
```
|
||
|
||
Credential routing: **key-cape** owns OIDC/login (`warden route show key-cape-oidc-login`);
|
||
**flex-auth** for authorization decisions if used; **do not** invent secrets in
|
||
git or State Hub.
|
||
|
||
## Design decisions to lock in T01
|
||
|
||
| Decision | Options | Lean |
|
||
| --- | --- | --- |
|
||
| Hostnames | e.g. `activity.ops.…` / `temporal.ops.…` vs path-based single host | Prefer **two hostnames** or one host with path prefixes |
|
||
| Auth edge | oauth2-proxy vs nginx auth_request vs key-cape native | Prefer **oauth2-proxy** or fleet-standard edge if one already exists |
|
||
| Mutation identity | SSO email/sub as principal; drop shared token for normal use | Shared token = break-glass only |
|
||
| Temporal UI auth | Same edge in front of `actcore-temporal-ui` | Yes for MVP |
|
||
| Who may access | Explicit Keycloak group (e.g. `activity-core-operators`) | Least privilege |
|
||
|
||
## Tasks
|
||
|
||
## Task: Access policy brief and hostnames
|
||
|
||
```task
|
||
id: ACTIVITY-WP-0025-T01
|
||
status: done
|
||
priority: high
|
||
state_hub_task_id: "44899e72-0481-5cd2-baa9-b96a547e4cd2"
|
||
```
|
||
|
||
1. Document intended audience (founders / operators), MFA expectation, and
|
||
allowed IdP groups.
|
||
2. Propose hostnames + TLS cert path (cluster issuer / railiance DNS).
|
||
3. Align with railiance-platform / key-cape conventions; open coordination
|
||
messages if host or client registration is external.
|
||
4. Update SCOPE G10 with the chosen posture (UI SSO vs full public API).
|
||
|
||
**Done when:** short design note in `docs/` or this workplan is approved;
|
||
hostnames and IdP group named.
|
||
|
||
## Task: Inventory fleet SSO ingress patterns
|
||
|
||
```task
|
||
id: ACTIVITY-WP-0025-T02
|
||
status: done
|
||
priority: high
|
||
state_hub_task_id: "b48ff4e4-bf85-54f5-a107-aa247e9fc625"
|
||
```
|
||
|
||
1. Find an existing oauth2-proxy / OIDC ingress pattern on railiance01 or
|
||
coulombcore (railiance-platform, state-hub dashboard, etc.).
|
||
2. Prefer **reuse** over inventing a new edge stack.
|
||
3. Record the pattern (manifest paths, secrets ownership, callback URLs).
|
||
|
||
**Done when:** “pattern to copy” is written with repo/file pointers.
|
||
|
||
## Task: Ingress + TLS for ops API (read path)
|
||
|
||
```task
|
||
id: ACTIVITY-WP-0025-T03
|
||
status: done
|
||
priority: high
|
||
state_hub_task_id: "58c8e105-e73a-5417-b8b9-d0dc64b20194"
|
||
```
|
||
|
||
1. Add Ingress (or Gateway) for `actcore-api` serving at least `/ops` and
|
||
`/ops/ui` (and health for probes as needed).
|
||
2. Terminate TLS with the platform cert strategy.
|
||
3. Gate with SSO edge; unauthenticated browser hits redirect to login.
|
||
4. Keep ClusterIP service; no LoadBalancer unless required.
|
||
|
||
**Done when:** authorized browser reaches `/ops/ui` over HTTPS without
|
||
port-forward; unauthorized gets login or 403.
|
||
|
||
## Task: Ingress + SSO for Temporal Web UI
|
||
|
||
```task
|
||
id: ACTIVITY-WP-0025-T04
|
||
status: done
|
||
priority: high
|
||
state_hub_task_id: "99f56e9a-6a5a-5fe9-a4c4-4a497a5c256e"
|
||
```
|
||
|
||
1. Expose `actcore-temporal-ui` behind the same auth edge (hostname or path).
|
||
2. Ensure Temporal UI env (`TEMPORAL_ADDRESS`, public URL / CORS if required)
|
||
works behind the external hostname.
|
||
3. Ops console `ACTIVITY_CORE_TEMPORAL_UI_URL` points at the **public SSO URL**.
|
||
|
||
**Done when:** Temporal UI opens from the ops nav link without a second
|
||
port-forward, under SSO.
|
||
|
||
## Task: Map SSO identity into ops mutations
|
||
|
||
```task
|
||
id: ACTIVITY-WP-0025-T05
|
||
status: done
|
||
priority: high
|
||
state_hub_task_id: "7d948dc6-374e-59ac-a6c9-e7fa6e8a128b"
|
||
```
|
||
|
||
1. Accept trusted identity from the auth edge (e.g. `X-Forwarded-User` /
|
||
`X-Auth-Request-Email` — exact headers depend on T02 pattern).
|
||
2. Prefer SSO principal over shared `ACTIVITY_CORE_OPERATOR_TOKEN` for
|
||
mutations when present.
|
||
3. Audit log records SSO subject (never tokens).
|
||
4. Optional break-glass: keep operator token for emergency; document custody.
|
||
|
||
**Done when:** Run now / pause audit shows human identity from SSO; shared
|
||
token not required for normal operator use.
|
||
|
||
## Task: Keycloak client and group membership
|
||
|
||
```task
|
||
id: ACTIVITY-WP-0025-T06
|
||
status: done
|
||
priority: medium
|
||
state_hub_task_id: "a8354b03-2e43-5fe1-8d40-4a39502d9090"
|
||
```
|
||
|
||
1. Register OIDC client(s) via key-cape / netkingdom process (not ad-hoc).
|
||
2. Create/bind operator group; grant only named operators.
|
||
3. Document how to add/remove operators.
|
||
|
||
**Done when:** login works for a test operator and fails for an unprivileged
|
||
account.
|
||
|
||
**Disposition (2026-07-22):** No new KeyCape/Keycloak OIDC client — fleet path
|
||
is Traefik ForwardAuth → Authelia. Least-privilege group work implemented in
|
||
**net-kingdom** `NK-WP-0021` (finished): LLDAP `activity-core-operators`,
|
||
Authelia domain allow/deny for both public hosts, membership runbook
|
||
`sso-mfa/k8s/lldap/OPERATOR-GROUPS.md`. Intakes NK-IN-0001/0002 closed
|
||
`promoted_to: NK-WP-0021`.
|
||
|
||
## Task: Docs and runbook cutover
|
||
|
||
```task
|
||
id: ACTIVITY-WP-0025-T07
|
||
status: done
|
||
priority: medium
|
||
state_hub_task_id: "4cfe1761-9bc4-58d1-bd0b-b0112230344a"
|
||
```
|
||
|
||
1. Runbook: primary access = SSO URLs; port-forward = break-glass only.
|
||
2. k8s README: Ingress manifests and secret ownership.
|
||
3. Credential routing notes: key-cape for login; no secrets in git.
|
||
|
||
**Done when:** an operator can follow runbook without kubectl for daily use.
|
||
|
||
## Task: Verify and harden
|
||
|
||
```task
|
||
id: ACTIVITY-WP-0025-T08
|
||
status: done
|
||
priority: medium
|
||
state_hub_task_id: "a3bddd50-deec-5e72-9311-02694d0fc2dc"
|
||
```
|
||
|
||
1. Confirm ClusterIP APIs without Ingress path remain not publicly reachable.
|
||
2. Confirm mutations without SSO (and without break-glass token) fail closed.
|
||
3. Smoke: inventory, status, Run now dry path, Temporal UI namespaces list.
|
||
4. Optional: network policies locking ingress → services.
|
||
|
||
**Done when:** checklist signed off in workplan closeout notes.
|
||
|
||
## Success criteria
|
||
|
||
- [x] HTTPS SSO URLs for ops console and Temporal UI (no port-forward required)
|
||
- [x] Only authorized IdP group can access (`activity-core-operators` via NK-WP-0021)
|
||
- [x] Ops mutations attribute to SSO identity; audits show principal (`sso:<user>`)
|
||
- [x] Ops nav Temporal link points at SSO Temporal URL
|
||
- [x] Runbook documents SSO primary + break-glass port-forward
|
||
- [x] SCOPE G10 updated to reflect UI SSO posture
|
||
|
||
## Dependencies / coordination
|
||
|
||
- **key-cape** / Keycloak: OIDC clients, groups (`warden route show key-cape-oidc-login`)
|
||
- **railiance-platform**: DNS, cert-manager, ingress controller norms
|
||
- **ACTIVITY-WP-0024**: ops console exists; this WP unlocks production access
|
||
|
||
## Implementation order
|
||
|
||
1. T01–T02 design + pattern reuse
|
||
2. T06 IdP client (can parallel with T03)
|
||
3. T03 ops Ingress + SSO
|
||
4. T04 Temporal UI Ingress + env URL
|
||
5. T05 mutation identity
|
||
6. T07–T08 docs and verify
