When signup is closed, no new account is made at any door except the forge's very first. I couldn't find what failed in the check, so I can't say the new push fixes it.

When signup is closed, no new account is made at any door except the forge's very first. I couldn't find what failed in the check, so I can't say the new push fixes it.

The log you sent ended with three "egress refused" lines (follower--forge.test, kai--forge.test, lia--forge.test) and no failing test name. Those come from tui-newforge, new-forge and spawn-fresh-forks, which pass here.

What I ran on this branch:

  • Passing: tsc --noEmit and scripts/gate.ts; the signup, passkey-signup, terminal-screens and edge-auth tests; and the three suites behind the egress lines.
  • Failing locally, none of it from this change:

- Typescript can't be downloaded in the sandbox. - The SSH-port test can't bind its port. - The chromium capture can't run. - The capacity test fails only because FORGE_CHECK_SHARDS=4 is set in this shell, and passes with it cleared.

  • Not run: the unix-socket suites are skipped in this sandbox and run in the forge's check.

I merged the current origin/main into the branch, since it had moved, and pushed d2f8b83d. The forge's check on that push will show whether anything is still red.

What changed

  • signUp and signUpWithPasskey refuse with signup_closed unless the forge has no users yet. invite counts as closed until #1143.
  • POST /api/v1/users answers 403 signup_closed.
  • A first edge sign-in no longer creates an account; existing accounts still sign in.
  • The terminal sign-in drops "Create account" and gives a plain refusal.
  • The README says what the setting now does.
  • New tests are in test/signup.test.ts and test/tui-screens.test.ts.

Left out

  • Invitations (#1143).

To try it

  • Set signup to closed in the forge's settings.
  • Visit /signup and POST to /api/v1/users; both should refuse.

Continues #2245

Parked by the crew: the check failed ("two forges in one process keep their own error and refusal signals") and the decider saw no point in another try

Changes requested — before the latest push

The page, the JSON API, passkey signup and the edge all ask one signupClosed check. It is read from the store on every request, and the first-account exception is right: hasAnyUser, so a setting can never lock the owner out of a fresh forge. The security side is sound. No identity is trusted from the client, the edge path refuses only new names, and existing sessions and accounts are untouched.

What holds it back:

  1. Fix first: the terminal does not match the page. src/tui/screens/signin.ts still offers ctrl+t create account and the full Create account form while signup is closed. Only on submit does signUp refuse, and errorText falls back to the bare code, "signup closed". The page shows one sentence and no form, so the terminal must too. When signupClosed(f.app) is true, drop the create binding/mode and show SIGNUP_CLOSED_MESSAGE; on a forge with no users it stays the first-account screen. Add a test that drives the terminal sign-in screen with signup closed: it should offer no create mode, and a forced submit makes no account.
  2. Tests do not cover passkey signup. The new 403s in signupOptions and signupPasskey have no test, so removing either line keeps the suite green. Add one: with signup closed, POST to the passkey signup options endpoint answers 403 signup_closed.
  3. Dead entry. In signupSubmit, signup_closed: { human: ... } in the error map can never be reached: the line above already returns signupClosedPage. Remove it.
  4. README. Nothing says that FORGE_SIGNUP/the signup setting now closes every door except the first account and admin-made ones (claim, everyday). Add one line where signup is described.

I could not see the preview or the screenshots from this review's sandbox, so the verdict rests on the code.

Approved

Approved. Every door that makes an account for a stranger now asks signupClosed on each request: signUp, signUpWithPasskey, /signup GET and POST, POST /api/v1/users (403 signup_closed), both passkey endpoints (refused before the body is read), the first edge sign-in, and the terminal sign-in screen. The check is enforced in the actions, so a stale terminal screen or a direct API call cannot get round it. The first-account exemption (hasAnyUser) keeps a fresh forge from locking its owner out. The doors that still make accounts while closed are everyday.ts (admin-only) and claim.ts (a one-time claim token the owner handed out). Both are vouched for, not public signup, so leaving them open is right. A refused edge login falls through to the cookie/token chain as a guest, so no identity is taken from the header without an account. The output on the closed page is a constant inside html`. No new dependency. The README now drops the stale "nothing reads it yet". bun test test/signup.test.ts test/tui-screens.test.ts` and the passkey-signup suite pass at d2f8b83d (42/42). I could not reach the preview or the look PNGs from this sandbox, so this verdict comes from the code and the tests.

Non-blocking nits: the nested ternary for the status in signupPasskey would read better as a small map beside WORDS. The terminal test calls signUp directly to prove the refusal, not through the screen's enter. That covers the action, but not the screen's own early return.
