mana-auth

Central authentication service for the Mana ecosystem. Rewritten from NestJS (mana-auth) to Hono + Bun.

Tech Stack

Layer	Technology
Runtime	Bun
Framework	Hono
Auth	Better Auth (native Hono handler)
Database	PostgreSQL + Drizzle ORM
JWT	EdDSA via Better Auth JWT plugin
Email	Nodemailer + Brevo SMTP

Port: 3001 (same as mana-auth — drop-in replacement)

Better Auth Plugins

1. Organization — B2B multi-tenant with RBAC
2. JWT — EdDSA tokens with minimal claims (sub, email, role, sid)
3. OIDC Provider — Matrix/Synapse SSO
4. Two-Factor — TOTP with backup codes
5. Magic Link — Passwordless email login

Key Endpoints

Better Auth Native (/api/auth/*)

Handled directly by Better Auth — includes sign-in, sign-up, session, 2FA, magic links, org management.

Custom Auth (/api/v1/auth/*)

Method	Path	Description
POST	/register	Register + init credits
POST	/login	Login (returns JWT + sets SSO cookie)
POST	/logout	Logout
POST	/validate	Validate JWT token
GET	/session	Get current session

OIDC (/.well-known/*, /api/auth/oauth2/*)

OpenID Connect provider for Matrix/Synapse SSO.

Me — GDPR Self-Service (/api/v1/me/*)

Method	Path	Description
GET	/data	Full user data summary (auth, credits, project entities)
GET	/data/export	Download all data as JSON file
DELETE	/data	Delete all user data across all services (right to be forgotten)

Aggregates data from 3 sources: auth DB (sessions, accounts, 2FA, passkeys), mana-credits (balance, transactions), mana-sync DB (entity counts per app).

Encryption Vault (/api/v1/me/encryption-vault/*)

Per-user master-key custody for the Mana data-layer encryption. The browser fetches its master key here on first login and re-fetches on each session start. The key itself never lives in the database — it's wrapped with the service-wide KEK (loaded from MANA_AUTH_KEK).

Method	Path	Description
GET	/status	Cheap metadata read: { vaultExists, hasRecoveryWrap, zeroKnowledge, recoverySetAt }. No decryption, no audit row. Used by the settings page on mount.
POST	/init	Idempotent vault initialisation. Mints + KEK-wraps a fresh master key on first call, returns the existing one on subsequent calls.
GET	/key	Hot path. Returns either { masterKey, formatVersion, kekId } (standard mode) or { requiresRecoveryCode: true, recoveryWrappedMk, recoveryIv } (zero-knowledge mode).
POST	/rotate	Mints a fresh master key. Old MK is gone — caller must re-encrypt or accept loss. Forbidden in zero-knowledge mode (409 ZK_ROTATE_FORBIDDEN).
POST	/recovery-wrap	Stores a client-built recovery wrap: { recoveryWrappedMk, recoveryIv }. The recovery secret itself NEVER touches the wire. Idempotent — replaces existing wrap.
DELETE	/recovery-wrap	Removes the recovery wrap. Forbidden in zero-knowledge mode (409 ZK_ACTIVE) — would lock the user out.
POST	/zero-knowledge	Toggles ZK mode. { enable: true } requires a recovery wrap to be set first (else 400 RECOVERY_WRAP_MISSING). { enable: false, masterKey: base64 } requires the freshly-unwrapped MK from the client so the server can KEK-re-wrap it.

All routes write to auth.encryption_vault_audit for security investigations. Three database CHECK constraints enforce vault consistency at the schema level (encryption_vaults_has_wrap, encryption_vaults_wrap_iv_pair, encryption_vaults_zk_consistency) so a code-level bug can't accidentally lock a user out.

Schema lives in src/db/schema/encryption-vaults.ts, service in src/services/encryption-vault/. Migration files: sql/002_encryption_vaults.sql (Phase 2: tables + RLS) and sql/003_recovery_wrap.sql (Phase 9: recovery columns + ZK constraints).

For the full architectural deep-dive, threat model, and rollout history (Phases 1–9 + backlog sweep), see apps/mana/apps/web/src/lib/data/DATA_LAYER_AUDIT.md. User-facing docs at apps/docs/src/content/docs/architecture/security.mdx.

Admin (/api/v1/admin/*)

Method	Path	Description
GET	/users	Paginated user list with search (?page=1&limit=20&search=)
GET	/users/:id/data	Aggregated user data summary (same as /me/data)
DELETE	/users/:id/data	Delete all user data (admin)
GET	/users/:id/tier	Get user's access tier
PUT	/users/:id/tier	Update user's access tier

Internal (/api/v1/internal/*)

Method	Path	Description
GET	/org/:orgId/member/:userId	Check membership (for mana-credits)

Cross-Domain SSO

Session cookies shared across *.mana.how via COOKIE_DOMAIN=.mana.how.

# Encryption Vault — REQUIRED IN PRODUCTION
# Base64-encoded 32-byte AES-256 key. Generate with `openssl rand -base64 32`.
# The dev fallback is 32 zero bytes (prints a loud warning at startup).
# This key wraps every user's master key in auth.encryption_vaults — guard
# it like a database password. Provision via Docker secret / KMS / Vault.

Critical Rules

• ALWAYS use Better Auth — no custom auth implementation
• EdDSA algorithm only for JWT (Better Auth manages JWKS)
• Minimal JWT claims — sub, email, role, sid only
• jose library for JWT validation (NOT jsonwebtoken)
