Locks in the relationship between three places that must agree about
SSO origin configuration:
1. TRUSTED_ORIGINS in better-auth.config.ts (Better Auth allow-list)
2. CORS_ORIGINS env var on mana-auth in docker-compose.macmini.yml
3. The HTTPS subset of (1) must be a subset of (2) — every origin
Better Auth trusts must also pass CORS preflight
Background: root CLAUDE.md references this spec file as the canonical
"Adding an app to SSO" verification step (line 116) but the file
itself never existed. The first run of this spec immediately caught
two real bugs:
- 3 origins in TRUSTED_ORIGINS were missing from CORS_ORIGINS
(https://auth.mana.how, https://arcade.mana.how, https://whopxl.mana.how)
- 22 zombie subdomain entries in CORS_ORIGINS left over from before
the consolidation (calendar, chat, todo, ...) that no app actually
routes to anymore
Both fixes shipped together with the TRUSTED_ORIGINS extraction in
the broader pre-launch sweep (commit 919fcca4b). This spec is the
guard against the same drift creeping back in.
Eight tests:
- canonical mana.how + auth subdomain present
- localhost dev origins (3001, 5173) present
- all production origins HTTPS
- all production origins on *.mana.how
- no duplicates
- every HTTPS trusted origin appears in mana-auth CORS_ORIGINS
- soft warning for CORS_ORIGINS entries not in trustedOrigins
(catches drift in the other direction)
8/8 pass.

Pre-launch theme system audit found multiple parallel layers in themes.css
(--theme-X full hsl strings, --X partial shadcn aliases, --color-X populated
by runtime store with raw channels) plus dead-code companion files. The
inconsistency caused light-mode regressions when scoped-CSS consumers
wrote `var(--color-X)` standalone — the variable holds raw HSL channels
which is invalid as a color value, browser fell back to inherited (white).
Rewrite to one consistent layer:
- Source of truth: --color-X defined as raw HSL channels (e.g.
`0 0% 17%`) in :root, .dark, and all variant [data-theme="..."]
blocks. Matches the format the runtime store
(@mana/shared-theme/src/utils.ts) writes, eliminating the
static-fallback-vs-runtime mismatch and the corresponding flash
of unstyled content on hydration.
- @theme inline uses self-reference + Tailwind v4 <alpha-value>
placeholder so utility classes generate correctly AND opacity
modifiers work: `text-foreground/50` → `hsl(var(--color-foreground) / 0.5)`.
- @layer components (.btn-primary, .card, .badge, etc.) wraps
var(--color-X) refs with hsl() — they were broken in light mode
too for the same reason.
Convention going forward (also documented in the file header):
1. Markup: use Tailwind utility classes (text-foreground, bg-card, …)
2. Scoped CSS: hsl(var(--color-X)) — always wrap with hsl()
3. NEVER raw var(--color-X) in CSS — that's the bug pattern
Net file: 692 → 580 LOC. Single source layer, no indirection.
Also delete dead companion files (zero imports anywhere):
- tailwind-v4.css (had broken self-reference, never imported)
- theme-variables.css (legacy hex-based palette)
- components.css (legacy component utilities)
- index.js / preset.js / colors.js (Tailwind v3 preset format,
irrelevant under Tailwind v4)
package.json exports map shrinks accordingly to just `./themes.css`.
Consumers using `hsl(var(--color-X))` (~379 files across mana-web,
manavoxel-web, arcade-web) keep working unchanged — the public API
name `--color-X` is preserved. Only the broken pattern `var(--color-X)`
(~61 files) needs a follow-up sweep, handled in a separate commit.

This commit bundles two unrelated changes that were swept together by an
accidental `git add -A` in another working session. Documented here so the
history reflects what's actually inside.
═══════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════
1. fix(mana-auth): /api/v1/auth/login mints JWT via auth.handler instead
of api.signInEmail
═══════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════
Previous attempt (commit 55cc75e7d) tried to fix the broken JWT mint in
/api/v1/auth/login by switching the cookie name from `mana.session_token`
to `__Secure-mana.session_token` for production. That was necessary but
not sufficient: Better Auth's session cookie value isn't just the raw
session token, it's `<token>.<HMAC>` where the HMAC is derived from the
better-auth secret. Reconstructing the cookie from auth.api.signInEmail's
JSON response only gave us the raw token, so /api/auth/token's
get-session middleware still couldn't validate it and the JWT mint kept
silently failing.
Real fix: do the sign-in via auth.handler (the HTTP path) rather than
auth.api.signInEmail (the SDK path). The handler returns a real fetch
Response with a Set-Cookie header containing the fully signed cookie
envelope. We capture that header verbatim and forward it as the cookie
on the /api/auth/token request, which now passes validation and mints
the JWT correctly.
Verified end-to-end on auth.mana.how:
$ curl -X POST https://auth.mana.how/api/v1/auth/login \
-d '{"email":"...","password":"..."}'
{
"user": {...},
"token": "<session token>",
"accessToken": "eyJhbGciOiJFZERTQSI...", ← real JWT now
"refreshToken": "<session token>"
}
Side benefits:
- Email-not-verified path is now handled by checking
signInResponse.status === 403 directly, no more catching APIError
with the comment-noted async-stream footgun.
- X-Forwarded-For is forwarded explicitly so Better Auth's rate limiter
and our security log see the real client IP.
- The leftover catch block now only handles unexpected exceptions
(network errors etc); the FORBIDDEN-checking logic in it is dead but
harmless and left in for defense in depth.

2. chore: remove the entire self-hosted Matrix stack (Synapse, Element,
Manalink, mana-matrix-bot)
═══════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════
The Matrix subsystem ran parallel to the main Mana product without any
load-bearing integration: the unified web app never imported matrix-js-sdk,
the chat module uses mana-sync (local-first), and mana-matrix-bot's
plugins duplicated features the unified app already ships natively.
Keeping it alive cost a Synapse + Element + matrix-web + bot container
quartet, three Cloudflare routes, an OIDC provider plugin in mana-auth,
and a steady drip of devlog/dependency churn.
Removed:
- apps/matrix (Manalink web + mobile, ~150 files)
- services/mana-matrix-bot (Go bot with ~20 plugins)
- docker/matrix configs (Synapse + Element)
- synapse/element-web/matrix-web/mana-matrix-bot services in
docker-compose.macmini.yml
- matrix.mana.how/element.mana.how/link.mana.how Cloudflare tunnel routes
- OIDC provider plugin + matrix-synapse trustedClient + matrixUserLinks
table from mana-auth (oauth_* schema definitions also removed)
- MatrixService import path in mana-media (importFromMatrix endpoint)
- Matrix notification channel in mana-notify (worker, metrics, config,
channel_type enum, MatrixOptions handler)
- Matrix entries from shared-branding (mana-apps + app-icons),
notify-client, the i18n bundle, the observatory map, the credits
app-label list, the landing footer/apps page, the prometheus + alerts
+ promtail tier mappings, and the matrix-related deploy paths in
cd-macmini.yml + ci.yml
Devlog/manascore/blueprint entries that mention Matrix are left intact
as historical record. The oauth_* + matrix_user_links Postgres tables
stay on existing prod databases — code can no longer write to them, drop
them in a follow-up migration if you want them gone for real.

Better Auth uses callbackURL to determine the post-verification redirect target.
Setting only redirectTo left callbackURL=/ which resolved to auth.mana.how/ (404).

Without this, Better Auth's definePayload receives a user object
without the custom accessTier column, causing the JWT tier claim
to always default to 'public'.
Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.6 (1M context) <noreply@anthropic.com>
Introduces a tiered access control system so apps can be released
gradually (founder → alpha → beta → public) without extra infrastructure.
Users are gated at the AuthGate level based on their tier vs the app's
requiredTier. All apps remain deployed and reachable, but only users
with sufficient tier can enter.
- Add accessTier enum + column to users schema (default: 'public')
- Add tier claim to JWT payload in better-auth config
- Add requiredTier field to ManaApp interface + all 25 apps
- Add hasAppAccess(), getAccessibleManaApps(), ACCESS_TIER_LABELS
- Update AuthGate with tier check + access denied screen
- Update getPillAppItems + Home page to filter by user tier
- Update all 22 app layouts to pass user tier to PillNav
- Add admin API: GET/PUT /api/v1/admin/users/:id/tier
- Document access tier system in CLAUDE.md

Rewrite the central authentication service from NestJS to Hono + Bun.
Uses Better Auth's native fetch-based handler — no Express conversion.
Key architecture changes:
- Better Auth handler mounted directly on Hono (app.all('/api/auth/*'))
- No NestJS DI, modules, guards, decorators — plain TypeScript
- JWT validation via jose (same as extracted services)
- Email via nodemailer (simplified, German templates)
- ~1,400 LOC vs ~11,500 LOC in NestJS (88% reduction)
Service structure:
- auth/better-auth.config.ts — copied from mana-core-auth (framework-agnostic)
- auth/stores.ts — in-memory stores for email redirect URLs
- email/send.ts — nodemailer email functions
- middleware/ — JWT auth, service auth, error handler (shared pattern)
- db/schema/ — copied from mana-core-auth (Drizzle, framework-agnostic)
Port: 3001 (same as mana-core-auth — drop-in replacement)
Database: mana_auth (same DB, same schemas)
Better Auth plugins: Organization, JWT (EdDSA), OIDC Provider,
Two-Factor (TOTP), Magic Link
Note: This is the initial version. Guilds, API keys, Me (GDPR),
security (lockout/audit), and admin endpoints will be added
incrementally. The old mana-core-auth remains until fully replaced.
