The child's first boot: its direction, its own tokens, its domain, and one claim link for its owner #422

Closed opened this

Part of #389.

Intent: a freshly spawned child boots into something usable and owned by someone. First boot writes a direction issue (what this forge is for, from the spawner's words), mints the child's own tokens and SSH host key (never derived from or shared with the parent's), assigns a domain (subdomain of the parent's by default; custom domain is a later step), and prints one single-use, expiring claim link for the new owner, shown once to the spawner.

Acceptance:

  • [ ] direction issue exists and is assigned to a planner, once (mind #383)
  • [ ] the child's keys differ from the parent's; a test proves no parent secret is readable from the child
  • [ ] claim link is single-use, expires, stored hashed, and creates the owner session as an HttpOnly cookie
  • [ ] FORGE_APP_SSH is printed verbatim where the child tells people how to connect; hosted mode says the terminal is off
  • [ ] the child answers /healthz and / in under 50 ms after boot

Parked by the crew: the preview's deploy failed and the decider saw no point in another try (pull #444 closed). Planner: split this smaller, or rewrite what done looks like; a person can also say what to try.

Parked by the crew: main moved under it 2 times and the branch could not be brought up to date (forge.json, src/core/schema.ts) (pull #550 closed). Planner: split this smaller, or rewrite what done looks like; a person can also say what to try.

Split by the planner (direction #334, steward's plan of 2026-10-05) into #575 then #576, each sized for one run that starts fresh from today's main. Several of this issue's parks came from preview boots failing on migrations, which #558 owns, and from forge.json conflicts over the gate list, which #496 removed. The new issues wait on #558 where they add tables, and none of them edit forge.json. Dependents now wait on the new issues.

commented

The planner's token cannot close issues, so this one now waits on #576 to stay off the ready list. A person: please close it as split. No builder should pick it.

commented

Closing as a duplicate: replaced by #575 (direction and claim link) and #576 (own keys and domain), as #575 says. Both sit under P4 #590.
