Scope the read path by tenant (AUDIT-WP-0008-T04).
_read gated on may_read alone and never called permits_tenant, so any reader
credential could read every tenant through /v1/events, /v1/events/<id>,
/v1/dead-letters and /v1/secret-findings. Deployment bounded the exposure --
the only production sender holds may_read: false -- but the boundary was not in
the code, which is the difference between E2 and E1 on the tenancy posture
enforcement ladder.

Two rules, because the surfaces divide cleanly. Event reads are filtered to the
tenants the credential may act for. Surfaces with no tenant key to filter on --
stats, integrity, dead letters, secret findings -- require full tenant scope and
are refused rather than served instance-wide facts to a scoped reader.

A cross-tenant fetch returns 404 rather than 403. A distinguishable forbidden
would confirm that an event id exists and which tenant holds it, turning the
read surface into an existence oracle. Correlation lookup is filtered rather
than refused, since a correlation id legitimately spans tenants.

_readable_by fails closed: a record with no tenant is readable only at full
scope. Three existing tests read instance-wide surfaces with a scoped
credential, which this makes a 403; bound_app now carries an unrestricted
operator identity and those reads use it.

Reliable multi-tenant auto setup audit capability

Production on railiance01 (AUDIT-WP-0005): PostgreSQL custody, digest-pinned image, operator procedures in docs/operator-runbook.md. Manifests live in deploy/.

Backend contract

The pluggable backend interface, event schema (audit-core.event.v1alpha1), retention policy, and migration path from the mock file backend are documented in docs/audit-backend-contract.md.

Development Mock Backend

The first implementation is intentionally tiny: a replaceable audit interface with a mock file backend.

By default it writes JSONL audit events to:

/tmp/audit-core/audit-YYYYMMDDTHH.jsonl

Files older than 7 days are removed when the backend writes or when cleanup is run explicitly. This backend is for local integration and bootstrap wiring. It is not durable audit custody.

Example:

python3 -m audit_core emit \
  --source openbao \
  --action openbao.authenticated_readiness_proof \
  --resource openbao/openbao-0 \
  --outcome success \
  --detail file_audit_visible=true \
  --detail backend=mock-file

Cleanup:

python3 -m audit_core cleanup

Make targets:

make test
make mock-audit-smoke
make mock-audit-cleanup

Environment:

  • AUDIT_CORE_MOCK_DIR: override the output directory.
  • AUDIT_CORE_MOCK_RETENTION_DAYS: override the default 7-day cleanup window.
