The admin console where OSE proposes an admission and the Director decides

[satvikOS]

What this is

The admin surface the requirement asks for: OSE proposes, the Director decides.
/admin/onboarding — a propose form, the Director's decision queue, capability
gating, and the surface a proposed person meets if they try to sign in before the
decision is taken.

RestrictedIdentity decides who may sign in to Tenant #1 at all, and its only
source is a reconciled July workbook. OSE runs a live institution: people join
mid-year, advisors change, a club elects an officer who was never on that roster.
Without an admitted path to add them the office either cannot onboard or the
boundary gets switched off — and a control that blocks the day job is a control
that gets switched off.

What is NOT in this PR, and where it is

The OnboardingProposal model, its migration, its tenancy registration, the
persistence that calls onboarding-chain.ts, and the ADR-0013 resolution belong
to a separate branch (agent afe1122827b2f7c6c), based on
registry/seed-and-enforce because it needs that branch's provenance columns.

apps/web/src/lib/identity/onboarding-proposals.ts here is a declared
placeholder for it: same path, same four exported signatures, so when the real
module lands it replaces this file whole and nothing under
app/(app)/admin/onboarding/ is rewired. It is banner-marked PLACEHOLDER — DELETE THIS FILE, its reads return nothing and say so, and every write refuses
with a sentence naming what is missing rather than reporting a plausible
success. onboarding-surface.test.ts fails the moment schema.prisma declares
model OnboardingProposal, so it cannot outlive the thing it stands in for.

The page says so too, up front, and says what IS live: the capability gate,
the domain rule and the Director's authority all apply. If the two branches merge
out of order, an administrator would otherwise meet a permanently empty queue and
a form that refuses, with no way to tell that from a product that is broken. The
notice disappears on its own — the constant it reads lives in the module that
gets replaced whole.

That shape is deliberate. This codebase has shipped two controls that reported
themselves as working while doing nothing — an access gate that refused nobody
while logging that it was not enforcing, and a seal that found "every person
present" over a registry the sign-in gate then matched none of. A stub returning
a cheerful success would be the third.

I did not touch onboarding-chain.test.ts:250 (the inertness guard) or
ADR-0013. Both belong to that branch. My surface imports the chain only as
import type through the placeholder — erased at compile time — so the rules
module's functions are still called by nobody.

The three things this branch owns

1. The normalisation

Every stored address goes through normalizeEmail imported from
lib/auth/eligibility.ts, never re-derived — because that is the function the
sign-in gate compares against.

The seeder wrote the workbook's casing as it found it. 86% of those cells are not
lower-case. Verification re-read the database, found every person present, and
sealed; the gate then matched none of the 82. A second writer to that table is a
second chance to make that mistake, so the property is asserted directly: what
the console stores IS what the gate computes, for every casing and spacing a
person can type — including the domain rule, which is applied to the normalised
address so it has no capital-letter bypass.

2. Proposing and approving are different capabilities, mapped onto the real catalog

half	capability	minRole	chain rule
propose	directory.manage	OSE_STAFF	R1 — staff-or-above, deliberately not Director-only
decide	institution.grantRole	OSE_DIRECTOR	R2 — the Director, and only the Director

No new capability ids. hasCapability is rank-only, so an id with the same
minRole would grant exactly what these grant, to exactly the same people — a
name with no rule. The chain module already points at one of them by name.

onboarding-authority.ts asserts the binding for every role, through both
paths, so if somebody lowers institution.grantRole for an unrelated reason,
R2 silently stops being true and a test fails instead. authorityDrift() is also
checked at runtime: on drift every command refuses rather than offering a control
that grants more than it says.

The capability is necessary and never sufficient. hasCapability reads
ctx.institutionRoles, which effectiveApprovalContext fills with a delegator's
roles too — so a delegate passes it. R3 compares user ids, which delegation
cannot touch. Every decision path consults both.

Brittany is encoded as the DIRECTOR ROLE. No name, no address, anywhere in
the surface — asserted by a test. The queue notifies every holder of
institution.grantRole, so the chain keeps working the day the seat changes
hands or its holder is on leave.

3. The proposed person's own surface

Two requirements pointing opposite ways, and both are real:

• eligibility.ts computes a precise refusal reason and never surfaces it,
  because distinguishing "not on the roster" from "wrong password" lets anyone
  enumerate 82 real students at a form (§14.2).
• Somebody proposed and not yet decided is now a state a person can genuinely be
  in, and telling them only "that was not accepted" reads as a broken product.

Resolved by changing WHAT is said and never WHO hears it. refusal-copy.ts
is a pure function of the tenant's unit name and nothing else — there is no
parameter through which an address, a lookup or a proposal could reach the
string, so "this cannot leak" is a fact the compiler holds. Every refused caller
reads identical words, so a probe extracts exactly as much as before; and those
words describe the real process, which is what the proposed person needs.

The second sentence says the page is being vague on purpose. Unexplained
vagueness reads as a bug, and a person who thinks they have hit a bug retries and
then escalates.

The audit inversion ADR-0013 names, not reproduced

audit.view is minRole OSE_ADVISOR and the audit page prints each event's
reason and the first entries of its metadata. adminGrantInstitutionRole puts
targetEmail straight into metadata — that is the inversion, live.

Here: every audit event points at the proposal by id and carries no address
and no name (asserted by a test that walks every auditEvent.create in the
file). The payload stays on the proposal row, behind the two capabilities that
gate it. Free-text reasons are refused if they contain an address, because the
address is already a structured field and repeating it publishes the one thing
the cohort can be enumerated from.

Verification

Gate: npx tsc --noEmit clean · npx jest 122 suites / 1864 passed ·
npm run build clean, /admin/onboarding builds.

Playwright: 10 new tests in e2e/admin-onboarding.spec.ts, all green, plus the
full suite green against a local production build.

All four required negative controls, and they are not vacuous. I removed each
control and measured that the tests fail:

control removed	result
the page's notFound() guard	advisor test fails
the domain rule in validateProposal	2 e2e + 3 unit fail
DECIDE_CAPABILITY weakened to directory.manage	6 unit + 5 e2e fail

Restored and re-verified green after each.

The negative controls fire upstream of the store, which is why they can be
proved before the persistence branch lands: requireCapability throws before any
read (and writes the DENY audit row), and the validators run before any write. A
test also asserts the capability check happens before validation, so somebody
without it cannot learn whether an address is well-formed or already on the
roster.

One assertion I caught being vacuous and said so in the code: with no
proposals stored, "staff sees no Approve/Decline button" passes for the Director
too. It is kept because it stops being vacuous when the store lands, and the
load-bearing assertion today is the queue's own words — "Yours to close" for the
Director, "Waiting on the OSE Director" for staff, each asserted absent for the
other.

Review round

A /code-review high pass found eight issues, all real, all fixed in
b564259. The ones worth knowing about before reading the diff:

• organizationId was trusted because the dropdown offered it. The page
  filters the <select> to this institution's active clubs — a rendering
  decision, not a check. A hand-built POST could attach an archived club or
  another institution's. Now checked in the action.
• Withdrawal had no in-branch rule. Propose and decide are lucky: their
  capabilities are R1 and R2. directory.manage cannot say "is the author of
  THIS one" and every staff member holds it, so the endpoint admitted any of
  them to any proposal while the page correctly hid the button. It now reads the
  proposal and checks authorship — and the audit line, which asserted "the
  proposer retracted this" unconditionally, now says only what was established.
• A malformed decision left no DENY row, because the shape check ran ahead
  of requireCapability — the one thing that writes one. The gate answers first
  now, which is the invariant this PR claims and did not hold on that path.
• "Nothing was changed" after somebody was admitted. An audit-write failure
  after decideAdmission had inserted the registry row returned reportable's
  generic message. The Director retries, is refused as already-decided, and
  concludes the product is broken while a person sits admitted with no audit
  row. The failure now says what happened and says not to retry; the durable fix
  (audit row inside the store's transaction) is in the interface asked of the
  persistence branch.
• A DRAFT rendered under "Decided", labelled "Withdrawn", beside a Draft
  badge, with no control to move it. Partitioned on the chain's terminal set now.
• A stale refusal followed you between dialogs — one useActionState, error
  never cleared on close.
• The inertness guard next door cannot see a relative import.
  onboarding-chain.test.ts matches file text for the module's path under
  lib/identity/, so ./onboarding-chain slips past — it would keep reporting
  the module inert while a sibling wired it in. It also over-matches: it flagged
  one of my test files for naming that path in a comment. I did not edit it —
  it belongs to the branch that resolves ADR-0013 and deletes it, and that agent
  has been told. What I added instead is additive and survives them: a test that
  nothing under app/ reaches the chain by any spelling, resolved by path, and
  that the placeholder's one chain import is import type (erased, so no rule
  is invoked).

And one worth naming on its own. Fixing the DENY-row issue moved the audit
block inside a try, which changed its indentation — and the test asserting "no
audit event carries the subject's address" was pinned to four spaces. It ran
straight past the block into the notification below, where subjectName
legitimately appears, and failed for the right reason by accident. It would
have passed by accident just as easily. The regex now ends at its own closing
brace.

Also fixed before review: the decision dialog closed on "the button was pressed"
rather than on the falling edge of the action's pending flag — a race that
reports a success nobody got, on a dialog whose outcomes are "admitted to the
institution" and "refused, on the record".

Notes for the reviewer

• notifyUsers kinds. Classified as approval-requested / approval-decided
  rather than a new onboarding-* pair: the class table belongs to the mail
  layer, this branch stores nothing yet, and a kind added here would be a row in
  somebody else's registry justified by a placeholder. mail-has-one-door.test.ts
  pins the call-site count, so 29 → 31 with the reason written beside it.
• Rebased onto Name the unit Engagement, and give the sign-in page a hierarchy #119 (the sign-in hierarchy + Engagement rename), which
  rewrote the page my refusal lives on. Resolved by taking their file and
  re-applying the change onto it rather than merging hunks. Because the refusal
  reads brand.unitName from tenant config instead of hard-coding a name, it
  now says Office of Student Engagement with no edit of mine — which is the
  argument for reading the registry rather than writing the string.
• A gap this does not close. An OSE staff member granted a console role via
  institution.grantRole still gets no RestrictedIdentity row, so the gate
  would refuse them once it is enforcing. Out of scope here; worth a backlog item.
• The route is registered in the capability ratchet as admin plane — role-gated; tenant-level withholding undecided, matching the five admin routes already
  deferred there.

📝 Walkthrough

Walkthrough

Adds a capability-gated admin onboarding console with proposal, decision, and withdrawal actions. It validates tenant email domains and reasons, uses non-enumerating sign-in refusals, notifies Directors, records privacy-preserving audit events, and explicitly refuses writes while proposal storage remains unavailable.

Estimated code review effort: 5 (Critical) | ~90 minutes

Merge Risk: 🟡 Moderate · up to 197e9

This PR adds proposal and approval workflows, but a persistence failure could leave a proposal or decision without its required audit record, while some users may see withdrawn labels for drafts, misleading timestamps, or stale refusal messages. Merge should wait for the audit write boundary to be made atomic or explicitly accepted, along with the bounded display fixes.

The placeholder read logs on every page load.

page.tsx sets dynamic = "force-dynamic", so each visit to /admin/onboarding calls listOnboardingProposals and writes one console.warn line.

Log it once per process to keep the server log readable.

Annotate the flag as boolean.

export const ONBOARDING_STORE_IS_A_PLACEHOLDER = true has the literal type true. Consumers such as page.tsx then hold a condition that TypeScript knows is always true, and onboarding-surface.test.ts asserts toBe(false) against a value whose type cannot be false. An explicit annotation keeps both call sites honest and avoids a lint failure from always-truthy condition rules.

This block does not exercise authorityDrift on a drifted catalog.

The describe name states that drift is reported, and the comment states the test proves the shape of the report. The three assertions only re-check catalog constants, which lines 54-58 already cover. The message text built in authorityDrift stays untested, so a broken template or a missing half would not fail here.

The audit-event regex depends on exact indentation.

/auditEvent\.create\(\{[\s\S]*?\n \}\)/g matches only when the closing brace sits at four spaces. Both assertions then loop over the matches. If a future edit nests one call in another block, or the formatter changes the indentation, the match list shrinks and the loop at line 175 asserts nothing while the count assertion at line 164 fails for an unrelated reason. Anchor the match on auditEvent.create and slice a fixed window instead, as the store test at line 56 does.

formRef is attached but never read, and the form does not reset after success.

useActionState keeps the typed values after a successful proposal. The administrator sees the same email, name, and reason still in the fields, with no confirmation, so a second submit is easy and would raise a duplicate proposal. The unused formRef suggests a reset was intended.

Test a domain that becomes valid after normalization.

Lines 156-165 use an address outside the tenant domain. Both normalized and case-sensitive validation reject it. The test can pass without proving that normalization occurs before the domain check.

Use an upper-case form of tenantDomain(page). Then assert the placeholder-store refusal. This proves that the proposal passed tenant-domain validation.

Proposed test change

-    await page.getByLabel("Institutional email").fill("  Outside.Person@EXAMPLE.EDU  ")
+    const domain = await tenantDomain(page)
+    await page.getByLabel("Institutional email").fill(`Mixed.Case.${stamp}@${domain.toUpperCase()}`)
     await page.getByLabel("Full name").fill(`Mixed Case ${stamp}`)
     await page
       .getByLabel("Why this person should be admitted")
       .fill("Same address as the previous test, typed the way a person actually types it.")
     await page.getByRole("button", { name: "Send to the Director" }).click()

     const refusal = proposeRefusal(page)
     await expect(refusal).toBeVisible()
-    await expect(refusal).toContainText(/can be added to the access registry/i)
+    await expect(refusal).toContainText(/not stored yet/i)

Require the configured passphrase for the known-account comparison.

When DEV_LOGIN_PASSPHRASE is unset, the test omits the passphrase and does not cover the documented wrong-secret case. Fail fast when the secret is absent, then append a suffix to create a guaranteed-wrong passphrase.

The state change and its audit row are not atomic.

proposeAdmission commits first, then db.auditEvent.create runs as a separate statement. If the audit insert fails, the proposal exists with no audit row, and the stated requirement that every state change writes an append-only audit event no longer holds. The same shape appears at lines 217-242 and lines 281-298.

The placeholder store hides this today because every write refuses. The branch that lands persistence inherits this call order, so define the boundary now: pass a transaction client into the store functions, or have the store write the audit row inside the same transaction as the state change.

formatWhen renders in the server's time zone and omits the year.

The page is force-dynamic, so this runs on the server. toLocaleString without a timeZone option uses the server process time zone. An administrator in another zone reads a decision time that is off by hours. The decided list also keeps rows indefinitely, and without a year "Mar 4" from a previous year is ambiguous.

Set an explicit tenant time zone, or render the timestamp on the client from the ISO value.

Isolate TENANT_ELIGIBLE_DOMAIN in this suite. eligibleDomain() uses a valid environment value, but DOMAIN always uses simon.rochester.edu. Set the environment value to FALLBACK_ELIGIBLE_DOMAIN for this suite and restore it afterward, or mock eligibleDomain(). The fallback is not ur.rochester.edu, so that rejection test remains valid.

Arbitration: #121 ships as the console. This PR closes, with one piece moving across.

Two console PRs exist for one feature, and that is my coordination failure, not this author's. I launched the console track twice and never told either side the other existed.

The deciding fact

	#120	#121
model OnboardingProposal in schema	0	2
migration	none	20260821140000
store	171-line declared placeholder	#116's real service
decline-reason CHECK constraint	—	yes, with an integration test
enumeration: wording	refusal-copy.ts — best construction in either	asserted by reading page source
enumeration: timing	—	structural test

#121 is built on #116's real createProposal / actOnProposal / listProposals / decidersFor. It can admit somebody. This one cannot, and both add the same routes, the same nav tab, the same components and the same /admin/onboarding page — so they cannot both merge.

What this PR did right, on the record

The placeholder here is not a hidden stub and not a false green. It is banner-marked PLACEHOLDER — DELETE THIS FILE, DO NOT EXTEND IT, it explains precisely why it exists, and it carries a test that fails the moment schema.prisma declares the model. It was built to my instruction: I assigned the model to another agent and said to declare the interface if that branch had not landed.

The import type discipline was also correct and load-bearing — it kept onboarding-chain.ts genuinely inert rather than passing its guard by regex evasion, and the author said so explicitly rather than letting it look accidental.

The piece that moves to #121

refusal-copy.ts. A pure function of the tenant's unit name and nothing else, so there is no parameter through which an address could reach the refusal string — "cannot leak" held by the type, not by a reviewer remembering. That is stronger than #121's equivalent, which asserts the same property by reading the rendered page. #121 folds it in.

Also carried across: the neutral outsideTenantDomain flag replacing the hard domain refusal (see below), and the mixed-case/whitespace normalisation coverage.

The domain rule — my error, corrected in both

I originally instructed a hard refusal on addresses outside the tenant domain. That was wrong. eligibility.ts:41 records that the roster's nineteenth advisor is excluded because their address is @ur.rochester.edu rather than Simon — and that person is exactly who an admission path exists to admit. A domain gate refuses the single canonical case the specification raises. It is a prominent neutral flag now; R2 is the control — the Director reads the address and decides.

Merge order

#116 → #121. #116 owns the chain and the model; #121 is the surface.

Closing per the arbitration above. #121 ships as the console; it has the model, the migration and #116's real createProposal/actOnProposal, so it can actually admit somebody, and mine is the declared placeholder I was asked to build. No disagreement.

Branch feat/ose-onboarding-console stays so refusal-copy.ts can be taken — closing a PR doesn't delete it. The two files are apps/web/src/lib/auth/refusal-copy.ts and apps/web/src/lib/auth/refusal-copy.test.ts.

I checked the port before closing and it hasn't happened yet (#121 HEAD 63e647c has no refusal-copy.ts). Left the details on #121 — the short version is that porting it the obvious way takes three of #121's live assertions blind, because the anti-vacuity guard protecting them is itself one of the five that goes red, and clearing the reds by deleting them is the natural move. Measured both ways rather than predicted: the same leaking copy is caught 3/3 before the port and 0/3 after.

The role-grant gap is #122.
