Five documentation surfaces gained encryption awareness in this
sweep. Before this commit, the only place anyone could learn about
the at-rest encryption layer or the zero-knowledge opt-in was the
internal DATA_LAYER_AUDIT.md. New contributors and self-hosters
would never discover one of the most important features of the
product just by reading the standard onboarding docs.
apps/docs/src/content/docs/architecture/security.mdx (NEW)
----------------------------------------------------------
First-class user-facing security page in the Starlight site,
slotted into the Architecture sidebar between Authentication and
Backend.
Sections:
- What's encrypted (overview table of 27 modules + the
intentional plaintext carve-outs)
- Standard mode flow with ASCII diagram
- "What Mana CAN see" trust statements per mode
- Zero-knowledge mode setup walkthrough (Steps component)
- Unlock flow on a new device
- Recovery code rotation
- Deployment requirements (the loud MANA_AUTH_KEK warning)
- Audit trail action vocabulary
- Threat model summary table
- Implementation file references with paths
services/mana-auth/CLAUDE.md
----------------------------
New "Encryption Vault" section under Key Endpoints, listing all 7
routes (status, init, key, rotate, recovery-wrap GET+DELETE,
zero-knowledge) with their HTTP method, path, error codes, and a
description. Mentions the three CHECK constraints + RLS + audit
table. Points readers at DATA_LAYER_AUDIT.md and the new
security.mdx for the deep dive.
Environment Variables block gains MANA_AUTH_KEK with a multi-line
comment explaining the openssl rand command + dev fallback warning.
apps/mana/CLAUDE.md
-------------------
Full rewrite. The existing file was from the Supabase era and
described things like @supabase/ssr, safeGetSession(), and a
five-table schema with users + organizations + teams that doesn't
exist any more. Replaced with the unified-app architecture:
- Module system layout (collections.ts / queries.ts / stores/)
- Mana Auth (Better Auth + EdDSA JWT) instead of Supabase
- Local-first data layer with the full pipeline diagram
- At-rest encryption section with the "when writing module code
that touches sensitive fields" 4-step guide
- Updated routing structure (no more separate /organizations,
/teams routes)
- Module store pattern code example
- Reference document table at the bottom pointing at the audit,
the new security.mdx, and the auth doc
Root CLAUDE.md
--------------
New "At-Rest Encryption (Phase 1–9)" subsection under the
Local-First Architecture section. Two-mode trust summary table,
production requirement for MANA_AUTH_KEK with the openssl command,
the "when writing module code" 4-step guide, and a reference
table. New contributors reading the root CLAUDE.md from top to
bottom now hit encryption naturally as part of the data layer
discussion.
.env.macmini.example
--------------------
MANA_AUTH_KEK was missing from the production env example
entirely — the macmini deployment would silently boot on the
32-zero-byte dev fallback if you copied this file. Added with a
multi-paragraph comment covering: how to generate, why it's
required, how to store securely (Docker secrets / KMS / Vault),
and the rotation caveat.
apps/docs/src/content/docs/deployment/self-hosting.mdx
------------------------------------------------------
Two changes:
1. Added MANA_AUTH_KEK to the mana-auth service block in the
Compose example with an inline comment pointing at the new
section below.
2. New "Encryption Vault Setup" H2 section with subsections:
- Generating a KEK (with a fake example value labelled DO NOT
USE — generate your own)
- Securing the KEK (Docker secrets, KMS, systemd
LoadCredential, anti-patterns)
- "What if I lose the KEK?" — explains the data is
unrecoverable by design and mitigation via zero-knowledge
mode opt-in
- KEK rotation — calls out the missing background re-wrap
job as a known limitation
apps/docs/astro.config.mjs
--------------------------
Added "Security & Encryption" entry to the Architecture sidebar
between Authentication and Backend so the new page is reachable
from the docs nav.
Astro check: 0 errors, 0 warnings, 0 hints across 4 .astro files.

The production domain is mana.how, not manacore.app. Updated all
references across shared-branding APP_URLS, app configs, landing pages,
docs, help content, calendar iCal UIDs, and deploy scripts.
