# Durable service group creation provenance
This source change narrows the existing authenticated identity-provisioner
`/v1/groups/ensure` and `/v1/groups/revoke` endpoints. It introduces no new
principal, credential, policy decision, or rollback authorization. An endpoint's
service token and a journal receipt do not establish an accepted case, caller
session, owner assent, or permission to use a protected execution lane.
## Request and receipt migration
Ensure keeps `groups`, `members`, `idempotency_key` and `correlation_id`.
The original correlation is now part of its immutable binding: the original
idempotency key with a different correlation or group/member request is refused.
The response adds `ensure_idempotency_key`, `ensure_correlation_id`,
`created_groups` (name and exact directory id) and `created_memberships`
(name, directory id and username). The owner journal independently retains the
complete prestate and expected postimage. Response inventories are advisory;
caller-supplied inventories are rejected and never authorize undo.
Revoke retains the original group/member request, its own `idempotency_key` and
`correlation_id`, and optional boolean `delete_if_empty`. It additionally requires
`ensure_idempotency_key` and `ensure_correlation_id` from the original ensure.
Legacy revoke requests fail before directory access. No old deployment inventory
is imported as proof of creation: pre-upgrade groups and memberships cannot be
rolled back automatically without independent owner reconciliation.
An ensure replay returns its original receipt and never recreates subsequently
removed state. Reusing its key after rollback is refused. Revoke replays return
its original outcome; changing deletion options after completion is refused.
There are at most 16 groups, 256 requested membership entries, 4096 retained
preexisting members per operation, and 256 journal records by default. Records
have no timeout or automatic eviction. Capacity exhaustion stops new operations.
## Storage policy and local fixture configuration
The implemented SQLite backend is for local development and disposable tests.
It is not an admitted production storage design. Accepted
[ADR-0015 section3](adr/ADR-0015-netkingdom-railiance-workload-packaging-and-relational-platform.md)
requires production relational storage through CloudNative PG and `rapp-postgres`
using `database-per-consumer`; it explicitly rejects per-workload SQLite-on-a-PVC
as a production pattern. The rail-kubernetes wave-1 contract also does not supply
a generic persistent-storage contract. This source does not authorize adding a
SQLite PVC to identity-provisioner.
Production group operations remain unadmitted and must stay disabled until the
existing owner paths admit a CNPG-backed implementation of the same journal
semantics, credentials, storage/backup/restore and writer-isolation contracts,
or an explicit governed exception to ADR-0015 identifies the exact scope,
limits, duration, recovery and risk owner. No such backend, exception or native
assent is supplied here. `railiance-platform` owns shared database/custody
governance; `rapp-postgres` owns the package consumer provisioning surface.
The identity-provisioner runtime package/operating assignment must also be
explicitly settled rather than inferred from User Engine's dependency on it.
For local/disposable tests only, `GROUP_PROVENANCE_DB` selects an absolute,
non-symlink SQLite path in a private test directory owned by the process UID,
with mode0700 for the directory and mode0600 for the database. The local fixture
explicitly initializes a genuinely new empty store with
`GroupProvenance(absolute_path, initialize=True)`; initialization refuses an
existing file. Ordinary opening never recreates a missing store. The completed
disposable fixture uses private container tmpfs and preserves the file across
separate Python processes; that proves process-restart semantics, not production
durability. `/tmp`, `emptyDir`, tmpfs and an image layer do not satisfy native
retention or recovery duties.
With no configuration, ordinary directory readiness reports
`service_groups: disabled` and group endpoints refuse work. Missing/untrusted or
unavailable configured local storage prevents startup or returns a fixed
`group_provenance` dependency failure without path/database diagnostics.
`service_groups: available` checks capability only: the implementation does not
infer or enforce production admission, policy exceptions, accepted cases or
writer isolation from a filesystem path.
The existing reference Deployment remains one `Recreate` replica at UID/GID10001
with `readOnlyRootFilesystem: true`, no provenance volume and an older immutable
image. Image rebuild, native owner review and credential delivery remain separate
acts. Preserve its nonroot/read-only boundaries. Native retention and recovery
must preserve original idempotency bindings, prestate, confirmed creations and
unresolved intents; losing a journal never authorizes replacement initialization
and replay. No arbitrary JSON import, receipt expiry or automatic uncertainty
clearing is introduced. Owner reconciliation needs independent evidence.
## Safety and remaining native acceptance
Before each directory mutation, durable intent is committed. A successful
response and exact readback are required before recording a confirmed creation.
A definite failure before any mutation attempt retains a `refused` record and
releases the active fence; its original key still cannot retry. Transport loss,
readback failure after an attempted mutation or a process exit leaves pending/uncertain state;
it survives reopening and blocks new mutations instead of becoming retry success.
Every database connection rechecks the private path and original device/inode;
missing/replaced storage is refused. Every intent update must affect exactly one
matching journal row before execution can continue.
The journal records mutation intent and confirmed outcomes, not an atomic LDAP
transaction or a complete audit emission guarantee.
Rollback validates every targeted group id and complete member postimage before
its first destructive operation, and verifies each subsequent change. It removes
only memberships confirmed newly added by that ensure. It deletes only groups
confirmed newly created by that ensure, and only while empty. Preexisting groups,
including empty groups, are never deleted. Existing members are never included
in the removal inventory. Detected shared-member drift or group replacement
refuses the operation before any destructive call and retains uncertainty.
LLDAP exposes no membership-generation token or conditional mutation/CAS here.
Readback cannot detect a remove/re-add ABA sequence or close a read/write race
with an external writer. Native rollback therefore still requires an owner-proven
writer isolation/fencing contract or a provider-side versioned/CAS operation;
these synthetic fixtures do not prove that boundary. A durable SQLite file is
trusted local owner-held state, not a production storage admission, tamper-evident
remote evidence or an authorization broker. Existing caller authentication is unchanged; case/source/principal binding,
per-attempt protected session revocation, independently admitted evidence callbacks,
native storage/backup recovery and native endpoint acceptance remain outstanding
under NK-WP-0048-T14/T16. This source change alone does not finish those tasks.
