Three new plan trees that fill in the gaps surfaced during repo review. Together they map out what remains between the current scaffold-with-stubs state and a daily-usable, multitenant, agent-coordinated app. * Plan-daily-driver-finish (P0): turn stubs into real data. Five tasks covering the lint/shared-types breakage, hardcoded dashboard mocks, AI-page setTimeout placeholder, post-signin landing decision, and a cross-browser collab smoke test against the deployed Hocuspocus instance. * Plan-multitenant-saas-hardening (P1): everything multitenant needs beyond what Plan-multitenant-cursor-sync already covers. Invites and role management, soft-delete + append-only audit log, rate limits on the auth + mutation hot paths, and a Vitest + GitHub Actions test foundation so PRs can't ship red. * Plan-agent-coordination (P2): the layer that makes a Task-*.md runnable, not just readable. Adds workflow_prompt with task -> epic -> plan inheritance, an agent_runs table for auditable sessions, and two new MCP tools (claim_task / complete_task) that replace the freeform update_object composition agents do today. Includes an intentionally-deferred Epic-optional-orchestrator that captures the Symphony-shaped runner as a decision point rather than an immediate build. Each task is bead-scale (one focused Cursor session) with explicit in-scope, out-of-scope, and anti-goal sections so a future agent can pick up a single Task-*.md and start without scrollback context.

# Task summary
|
|
|
|
Add per-IP rate limits to credentials sign-in and to a small set of high-impact mutation endpoints (invite, archive, create-workspace). The goal is to cap brute-force and obvious abuse, not to be a full WAF.
|
|
|
|
## Description
|
|
|
|
### Storage
|
|
|
|
Use the existing Redis instance on CT 102 (already used by Hocuspocus for awareness). Add a thin client in `packages/shared/src/rate-limit/` — token-bucket or sliding-window, your choice; the contract is `consume(key: string, opts: { capacity, refillPerSecond }): Promise<{ ok: boolean, remaining: number, retryAfterMs: number }>`.
|
|
|
|
If you don't want a new shared lib, `@upstash/ratelimit` is a fine drop-in even though we're not on Upstash — it works against any Redis URL. Don't add a new database for this.
|
|
|
|
### Where to apply
|
|
|
|
1. **Credentials sign-in** (`apps/web/app/api/auth/[...nextauth]/route.ts`, or the `authorize` callback): key by IP (`x-forwarded-for`, falling back to remote addr). 5 attempts / 60 seconds, then 429.
|
|
2. **Invite create**: key by `actor_user_id`. 30 invites / hour. Workspace-scoped is fine too.
|
|
3. **Workspace create**: key by `actor_user_id`. 5 workspaces / hour.
|
|
4. **Archive/restore**: key by `(workspace_id, actor_user_id)`. 20 / hour. Cheap insurance against a script flipping state in a loop.
|
|
|
|
### IP extraction
|
|
|
|
Use the same helper everywhere; don't recompute in every route. Common gotcha: `x-forwarded-for` is a comma-separated list when there are multiple proxies. Take the first entry. If the deployed stack is behind Cloudflare, `cf-connecting-ip` is more reliable — add that as a higher-priority source if present.
|
|
|
|
### Response
|
|
|
|
When a limit trips, return `429 Too Many Requests` with a `Retry-After` header in seconds and a tRPC `TOO_MANY_REQUESTS` error code. The client should surface a friendly message ("try again in ~30 seconds"), not a stack trace.
|
|
|
|
### Audit logging
|
|
|
|
Every limit trip writes an `audit_log` row (`action: "rate_limit.tripped"`, `metadata: { route, key_kind, retry_after_ms }`). This is how you discover whether anyone's hitting the limits in practice; without it the limits are silent.
|
|
|
|
### Anti-goals
|
|
|
|
- Don't add a CAPTCHA. If brute-forcing becomes a real problem, add Cloudflare in front of the deploy.
|
|
- Don't write a generic rate-limit middleware that wraps every tRPC procedure. The set of high-value endpoints is short; explicit is better than universal.
|
|
|
|
## Subtasks
|
|
|
|
- [ ] Pick the Redis client and rate-limit lib (or hand-roll).
|
|
- [ ] Add IP extraction helper.
|
|
- [ ] Apply limits to the 4 routes above.
|
|
- [ ] Wire `audit_log` writes on limit trips.
|
|
- [ ] Verify by scripting 20 credentials sign-in attempts against a dev deploy.

## Acceptance criteria
|
|
|
|
- [ ] Brute-forcing credentials sign-in trips at attempt 6 within 60 seconds.
|
|
- [ ] Invite-spam attempt trips at invite 31 within an hour.
|
|
- [ ] Every trip produces an `audit_log` row.
|
|
- [ ] No global tRPC middleware — limits are applied per route.
