# identity-on-sx: OAuth2, sessions & membership on Erlang
|
|
|
|
> **DRAFT outline.** The identity core `acl-on-sx` assumes already exists. `acl`
|
|
> answers "may X do Y"; identity answers "who is X, and how did they prove it."
|
|
> Depends on `persist-on-sx` (grant/audit ledger). Pairs with `acl-on-sx`.
|
|
|
|
rose-ash's `account` domain is the OAuth2 authorization server every other app is
|
|
a client of: silent SSO, per-app first-party cookies, grant verification,
|
|
membership. Sessions and grants are **long-lived, concurrent, individually
|
|
addressable, and expire on their own** — that is the actor model. Erlang's
|
|
processes + mailboxes map cleanly: a session is a process, token issue/refresh/
|
|
revoke are messages, expiry is a process timeout, and SSO is one process answering
|
|
many apps.
|
|
|
|
End-state: an Erlang-on-SX layer with the OAuth2 authorization-code + silent
|
|
(`prompt=none`) flows as message protocols, a session/grant registry, token
|
|
lifecycle (issue/refresh/revoke/introspect), and membership state — all auditable
|
|
through the event log, all authorization questions delegated to `acl-on-sx`.
|
|
|
|
## Status (rolling)
|
|
|
|
`bash lib/identity/conformance.sh` → **0/0** (not yet started)
|
|
|
|
## Ground rules
|
|
|
|
- **Scope:** only `lib/identity/**` and `plans/identity-on-sx.md`. May **import**
|
|
from `lib/erlang/`, and (once they exist) `lib/persist/` + `lib/acl/`. Do not edit
|
|
substrates.
|
|
- **Architecture:** a session/grant is a process holding its own state; the
|
|
registry routes messages by subject/client id. Tokens are opaque + introspected,
|
|
not self-validating (revocation must be real). Authorization decisions are NOT
|
|
made here — `identity` proves identity, `acl` decides permission.
|
|
- **Security:** revocation is immediate (kill the process / tombstone the grant);
|
|
no decision relies on a token that outlived its grant. Negative answers are
|
|
explicit, never "absence of a yes."
|
|
- **Commits:** one feature per commit. Progress log + tick boxes.
|
|

## Architecture sketch
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
Auth request Token / session
|
|
(authorize client scope subject) {:access :refresh :expires :grant}
|
|
│ ▲

|
|
lib/identity/oauth.sx lib/identity/token.sx
|
|
— authz-code + prompt=none flows — issue / refresh / revoke / introspect
|
|
— as Erlang message protocols — opaque tokens, grant-backed
|
|

|

|
|
lib/identity/session.sx lib/identity/registry.sx
|
|
— session = process, expiry=timeout — route by subject/client; SSO fan-out
|

lib/identity/api.sx ── (identity/login) (identity/grant?) (identity/revoke) ──┐
|
|
│ │
|
|
└──────── grant + audit events → persist ; permission? → acl ──────────┘
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
## Phase 1 — Sessions + tokens
|
|
- [ ] `session.sx` — session process, create/lookup/expire
|
|
- [ ] `token.sx` — issue/introspect/revoke (opaque, grant-backed)
|
|
- [ ] `registry.sx` — route by subject/client
|
|
- [ ] `api.sx` + tests + scoreboard + conformance.sh
|
|
|
|
## Phase 2 — OAuth2 flows
|
|
- [ ] authorization-code flow as a message protocol
|
|
- [ ] refresh + rotation; revocation cascades to issued tokens
|
|
- [ ] tests: full code exchange, refresh, revoke-then-use (must fail)
|
|
|
|
## Phase 3 — Silent SSO + membership
|
|
- [ ] `prompt=none` cross-app login (one session, many clients)
|
|
- [ ] membership state + per-app grant projection
|
|
- [ ] grant verification delegated cache (mirror Redis-cache pattern)
|
|
|
|
## Phase 4 — Audit + federation
|
|
- [ ] every issue/refresh/revoke is a `persist` event; `(identity/audit subject)`
|
|
- [ ] federated identity (peer-asserted subject) — advisory, trust-gated stub
|
|
- [ ] tests: audit completeness, cross-instance subject mapping
