Give the rollout preview its door: MASTER_ACCESS_EMAILS on the task definition - #135
Conversation
…efinition #129 landed the role chooser — /preview, the persona action, the badge — and it is inert, because nothing sets the variable that decides who may open it. Measured before writing this: MASTER_ACCESS_EMAILS appears nowhere in infrastructure/, so on the running service it is undefined. That #129 could land anyway is a property of how the door fails, and it is worth recording rather than rediscovering. `resolvePreviewIdentity` returns null unless the variable is set AND the address is on it, and the session callback then does `if (!preview) return session` — an unset value is NOT a refusal, it is simply no preview. So the merge could not have locked anybody out. It also means /preview 404s and the chooser does nothing until this exists. The value goes through `parseMasterAccessEmails`: comma-separated, trimmed, put through the SAME `normalizeEmail` the restricted registry uses, and entries with no "@" dropped. `previewAccessEnabled` is `size > 0`, so an empty value means NO PREVIEW rather than "allow everyone" — the empty-allowlist defect, refused by construction rather than by a check somebody has to remember. A plain env var, not a secret: it is an allowlist of addresses, not a credential. Cognito still authenticates, and the persona substitutes the session SUBJECT for a real seeded user, so rbac, capabilities and resolveTenantScope read that user's real rows — nothing short-circuits requireCapability. Set it to "" to close the door: /preview 404s, the eligibility exception never runs, and the session callback attaches nothing. terraform fmt is clean on both files touched. scheduler.tf's over-aligned block is pre-existing on main and deliberately left alone.

Make preview access opt-in by default.
Line 398 grants preview access to satvik@tenurework.com whenever a Terraform caller omits master_access_emails. Set the default to "", then configure approved addresses explicitly per environment.
