Run the full T2 §5 prose-vs-Workflow /trekreview bake-off (operator GO, choice "a"): 3 runs/arm on a rich-finding JWT-auth fixture, resolving the smoke's 0-finding limitation. Deliverables: - tests/fixtures/bakeoff-rich/ — JWT-auth brief + diff with 5 seeded blatant, brief-traceable issues (varied severity/rule_key, one dual-flaggable). - scripts/bakeoff-armA-merge.mjs — Arm A (prose) validate (NW1) + triplet-dedup, matching Arm B's dedup exactly. - scripts/bakeoff-fidelity.mjs — cross-arm + within-arm + granularity-ladder fidelity analysis over the structured arm outputs. - docs/T2-bakeoff-results.md §Full run — the T2 §5 verdict. Result (3 runs/arm, both arms ran the coordinator): - Verdict fidelity EQUIVALENT — all 6 runs BLOCK, cross-arm verdict-match 1.0. - Finding-set: substrate is fidelity-neutral. Cross-arm jaccard 0.41 (triplet) → 0.71 (file,rule_key) → 1.0 (file); cross-arm ≈ within-arm at every granularity. Issue coverage 5/5 in 6/6 runs. Low triplet jaccard is line-citation noise shared by both arms, not a substrate effect. - Token +4.4% (Arm B vs A; <=+15%). Classifier interference 0 at 9-agent concurrency. JSON-robustness: Arm B schema-forced; Arm A 6/6 valid via NW1. - VERDICT POSITIVE → S11 proceeds with opt-in --workflow flag. Caveat (per plan posture): strict triplet-jaccard>=0.7 flag is 0/9, a metric-calibration artifact (both arms sub-0.7 against themselves), not a regression. Residual: F4 auto/bypass explicit-mode check (mode not settable in-session). Suite green (662/660 pass, 2 skip); plugin validate clean (modulo the pre-existing root-CLAUDE.md warning). No production code changed. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.8 (1M context) <noreply@anthropic.com> Claude-Session: https://claude.ai/code/session_01LqBYc8Ltrk7LipyJmGxXiB

JWT authentication with refresh-token rotation
Intent
Add stateless JWT authentication to the API: a /login endpoint that issues a
short-lived access token plus a rotating refresh token, and a /refresh
endpoint that rotates the refresh token on every use. Tokens are signed with a
fixed RS256 key pair. This is the security boundary of the service, so the
contract below is strict.
Plan reference (what the approved plan said to build)
Plan Step 4 —
lib/handlers/login.mjsverifies the password withbcrypt.compare(password, user.passwordHash). The stored credential is a bcrypt hash; no plaintext comparison.Plan Step 6 —
lib/auth/jwt.mjshard-codes the verification algorithm to['RS256']. The algorithm is never read from the request.
Success Criteria
- SC1 —
POST /loginwith valid credentials returns200with both anaccessTokenand arefreshTokenin the JSON body. - SC2 —
POST /loginwith invalid credentials returns HTTP401(not 200) and no tokens. Invalid means the email is unknown OR the password does not match. - SC3 — Refresh-token rotation is covered by an automated test that exercises the concurrent-refresh race window (two refreshes presenting the same refresh token must not both succeed).
- SC4 — Access and refresh tokens are signed and verified with RS256 only, using the server's fixed key pair.
Non-Goals
- NG1 — Do NOT accept a caller-supplied signing/verification algorithm. The
algorithm must never be read from the request (header, body, or query). A
token claiming a different
algmust be rejected. - NG2 — Do NOT add a user-registration / sign-up endpoint. Users are provisioned out of band.
- NG3 — Do NOT add password-reset or email flows in this change.
Constraints
- Node stdlib + the already-vendored
jsonwebtokenandbcrypt; no new deps. - Every delivered code path that the SCs describe must have test coverage.
- Errors from the refresh-token store (a network resource) must not crash the request handler — degrade to a 5xx, do not let the rejection bubble unhandled.
Assumptions
db.getUserByEmail(email)returns{ id, email, passwordHash }ornull.- A
refreshStorewithget/set/delete(async, may throw on backend outage) is injected.
NFRs
- Constant-time password comparison via the bcrypt primitive (no hand-rolled comparison over plaintext-derived buffers).
