Add a GrinLwsClient (a faithful mirror of the XMR LwsClient) + GrinLwsConfig
(enabled when GRIN_LWS_URL is set). /wallet/grin/scan now defaults to grin-lws
when configured and returns derivation paths (key_id/n_child) + spendability,
letting the wallet skip its client-side output-identify search.
Money-safety: the restore-depth/PoW gate runs once and is terminal (never
masked by fallback); grin-lws is trusted only when provably synced
(scanned_height + margin >= tip), otherwise the scan falls back to the
authoritative grin-wallet scan_rewind_hash; a grin-lws transport error also
falls back; grin-wallet errors propagate as 503. No path ever synthesizes an
empty/zero balance.
Off unless GRIN_LWS_URL is configured (prod grin behavior unchanged until
pointed at a grin-lws instance). Capabilities advertise `grin_lws`.
openapi.json regenerated.
The electrum client did strict webpki TLS verification (CA chain + hostname). But
public electrum servers are self-signed by ecosystem convention — e.g. emzy.de
presents a cert webpki rejects with `UnsupportedCertVersion`. So the ssl:// fallback
layer was non-functional: whenever the trusted primary Fulcrum hiccuped (the
recurring nebula-firewall issue), every fallback failed the TLS handshake and
BTC/LTC returned 503 NODE_UNAVAILABLE (observed live on api.smirk.cash).
TLS here is transport encryption, not the trust boundary — the client already
treats every server byte as hostile (size bounds, id correlation, checked amount
conversion, address validation), so CA-authenticating an untrusted PUBLIC fallback
buys nothing while breaking it. Default to accepting any server cert; gate strict
webpki behind ELECTRUM_STRICT_TLS=1 for operators who run a CA-cert'd Fulcrum.
Verified (network-gated test): the lenient connector completes get_tip_height
against blockstream (CA-signed) AND emzy.de (self-signed) where strict fails.
cargo check + electrum/config unit tests green.
RELAY_WRITE_ALLOWLIST_NPUBS (npub1… or hex, comma-separated): listed authors may
publish ANY kind regardless of write policy or premium status. The use case is a
feed-owner / announcements account that seeds a premium-post feed without holding
a subscription — the admission engine previously had no owner/allowlist bypass
(FEED_OWNER_NPUB is read-side only).
- policy.rs: decide() gains author_allowlisted, checked first (permit-any).
- mod.rs: RelayProvider::is_write_allowlisted; entries decoded npub→hex once at
boot (bech32), malformed entries logged + skipped. npub-decode KAT.
- nauthz.rs: resolves the flag (in-memory set, no DB) and short-circuits the
registration/premium/recipient lookups when exempt.
- .env.example: document the var + the premium-post policy.
Relay tests 21/21.
CoinGecko (the only v3 provider) 403s requests with no User-Agent — reqwest
sends none — so the feed never populated. Port the working v0.2.x approach:
- Add a browser User-Agent to the price HTTP client.
- Add a "kraken" provider: Kraken for the majors (BTC/LTC/XMR, USD, one
multi-pair call) + nonlogs.io for WOW/GRIN (Kraken doesn't list them; priced
via each coin's -BTC ×BTC/USD and -USDT quotes, averaged).
- Config validation accepts PRICES_PROVIDER=kraken.
Deployed to api.smirk.cash with PRICES_PROVIDER=kraken.
The invite + payment gates were strictly conjunctive: a new wallet had to satisfy
EVERY enabled gate. Add a REGISTRATION_GATE_MODE knob so an operator can offer the
enabled gates as ALTERNATIVES instead (e.g. "an invite code OR pay to register").
PoW stays orthogonal and always applies on top, regardless of mode.
- config: GateMode { All (default) | Any } on RegistrationConfig, from
REGISTRATION_GATE_MODE (default "all", back-compatible).
- capabilities: advertise registration_mode ("all"|"any") so the wallet can route
onboarding (multiple gates + "any" => "pick a method"; "all" => satisfy each).
- enforcement: enforce_method_gates composes invite+payment per mode. Extracted a
pure plan_gates() decision so the fund-critical dispatch is unit-tested. In
"any" with both gates on, the client presents exactly ONE credential and only
that gate runs (and only it consumes its single-use token); presenting BOTH is
rejected so a one-of choice can never burn two tokens (an invite AND a paid
invoice). Single-gate configs behave identically in both modes.
6 KATs on plan_gates (open / conjunction / single-gate / dispatch / reject-both /
require-one). openapi.json regenerated. 211 lib tests pass.
A read-only web feed (feed.<domain>) is a backend-operator knob: FEED_ENABLED
plus curation switches (show owner / show premium members / a featured npub
allowlist / extra relays) surface in /capabilities.feed so the feed page adapts
per instance. Reads from the relay, so validate() fail-closes FEED_ENABLED
without RELAY_ENABLED. Off by default; all public display config, no secrets.
A payment processor reached over a loopback hop (an SSH tunnel or a local
reverse proxy) is safe to call over plaintext in production — the request never
leaves the host. Relax the https requirement for 127.0.0.0/8, ::1, and
localhost in both the pay-to-register and premium payment validation paths.
- Reject boot when POW_REQUIRED (or the per-pubkey PoW list) is set while
FEATURE_POW is off: the gate would silently never apply and /capabilities
would report pow_required:false — a signup endpoint the operator believes
is protected but isn't.
- Validate the premium PAYMENT_API_KEY through the same require_secret path
the pay-to-register flow uses, so a placeholder key cannot reach production.
- Advertise the premium-post write policy in MessagingCapability and
regenerate openapi.json to match.
- Give the premium integration fixtures unique per-run ids so the suite is
re-runnable against a persistent local test database.
A paid premium tier gating GENERAL Nostr posting to the operator's relay, while
wallet-functional events (encrypted DMs, tips, swap coordination) stay free for
registered users. Registration itself stays free (PoW-gated). Off by default.
- Admission: a new `premium-post` write policy gates on kind x membership —
premium author -> any kind; registered + WALLET_KINDS (1059 gift-wrap, 10050
DM-relay-list) -> free; registered + general -> premium required; external ->
gift-wrap DM inbox only. nauthz resolves is_premium_npub (only under premium-post),
fail-closed.
- Payment: reuses the PaymentProvider seam (PULL model, non-custodial — only reads
invoice status). POST /premium/invoice {plan} mints a tier invoice bound to the
JWT user_id; POST /premium/activate verifies Settled + consumes single-use AND
extends premium_until in ONE transaction (a mid-flight failure keeps the paid
invoice redeemable); GET /premium/status reads it. Per-user pending-invoice cap.
- Tiered plans (PREMIUM_PLANS id:days:amount) = a built-in discount feature;
advertised via /capabilities (premium_relay + premium{currency,plans,relay_url}).
- Config fail-closes: PREMIUM_ENABLED needs relay on + premium-post + processor
creds + >=1 positive-decimal plan + unique ids + days<=3660, and the 0-conf /
expiry processor floors apply on the premium path too (its common case is
require_payment=false).
- Tests: 15 policy unit (incl. 5 premium-post) + config fail-closed matrix + plan
parser + L1 integration (activate single-use/stacking/cross-user, is_premium by
expiry, feature gate). OpenAPI + migration updated.
Adversarially reviewed (correctness / security-payment / operational-config); the
0-conf-on-premium-path double-spend footgun, non-transactional activate, and
unbounded plan days were caught and fixed before commit.
Adversarial review of the relay admission surface:
- FAIL-SAFE on admission death: nostr-rs-relay fails OPEN if its gRPC admission
server is unreachable, so a dead admission = an unrestricted relay. The backend
now EXITS if the admission service stops (supervisor restarts a clean pair);
documented in RELAY.md. Pin the relay image to a digest (compose note).
- Registration-oracle protection: validate() now refuses a non-loopback
RELAY_ADMISSION_BIND unless RELAY_ADMISSION_ALLOW_PUBLIC=true (+ test).
- No N+1 on crafted events: recipient p-tags are capped (20, deduped) and resolved
in ONE batched query (db.any_registered_npub) instead of one-per-tag.
- Defence-in-depth size cap: admission denies events over max_event_bytes before
any DB work (the relay enforces its own limit too).
- Docs: RELAY.md Security section (fail-open, loopback oracle, default PoW=0 spam
footgun, client sender-verification); config.toml relay port 8088 (not 8080);
Docker Hub image; .env.example RELAY_ADMISSION_ALLOW_PUBLIC.
Note: the client-side sender-impersonation blocker is fixed separately in the
monorepo (verifying gift-wrap unwrap).
First slice of the optional Nostr relay (messaging plane), behind a swappable
seam mirroring the PaymentProvider pattern so nostr-rs-relay can be replaced by
another relay (strfry/external) or another messaging protocol later.
- config: MessagingConfig { relay: RelayConfig } — RELAY_ENABLED (off by default),
mode (bundled|external), advertised ws(s):// URL, write_policy
(inbox-outbox default | author-allowlist | open), inbound_pow_bits (NIP-13),
admission_bind, resource caps. validate() fail-closes (URL required + ws(s)://
+ wss in prod, known policy, PoW <= 40, admission bind for non-open). +7 tests.
- infra/relay: RelayProvider trait + from_config (feature-gated, fail-closed) +
the default nostr-rs-relay/external adapter; AppState.relay wired
(lib/main/tests).
- infra/relay/policy: PURE admission engine (WritePolicy, decide, NIP-13
leading_zero_bits): open permits all; author-allowlist gates on a registered
npub; inbox-outbox permits a registered author's outbox OR a kind-1059 gift-wrap
addressed to a registered user (inbox), the external-inbound branch optionally
behind a PoW gate. Registration lookups are resolved by the caller and passed as
booleans so the decision is pure + fully unit-tested (10 tests).
The gRPC event-admission service that calls this engine, capabilities/NIP-05
advertising, packaging, and the client DM stack land in the following slices.
Optional REGISTRATION_REQUIRE_PAYMENT gate: a new wallet must settle an
invoice on an external, non-custodial payment processor before it can
register. Pull model — the grant reads the processor's authenticated API as
the source of truth, so there is no inbound webhook to secure and a settled
invoice cannot be forged over HTTP. Returning wallets and self-hosting bypass
it, exactly like the invite and PoW gates.
- infra/payment: a pluggable PaymentProvider seam (neutral Invoice /
InvoiceStatus / InvoiceRequest) with a BTCPay-compatible first adapter that
also serves this project's xmrcheckout/wowcheckout apps + the BTCPay Monero
plugin, so "operator picks any coin" costs one adapter. A future ETH/native
adapter (BTCPay serves neither) implements the same trait. Only `Settled`
grants (unknown status fails safe); the API key rides in a redacting Secret
and hostile responses are size-capped.
- payment_invoices: invoice<->pubkey_hash binding + atomic single-use consume
(UPDATE ... WHERE consumed_at IS NULL AND pubkey_hash=$ RETURNING), so one
invoice grants at most one registration and never a different identity.
- POST /auth/payment-invoice mints + binds; enforce_payment (bind -> processor
`Settled` -> atomic consume) runs beside enforce_invite; payment_invoice_id
on the register request.
- Fail-closed config: https-in-prod, positive-decimal price, >= 1 confirmation
(bars a 0-conf settled-then-double-spent free registration), bounded expiry.
/capabilities advertises payment_required + price; OpenAPI + .env.example.
Tests: adapter status/speedPolicy mapping + config validation (unit), and L1
binding + atomic single-use (concurrent-consume-one-wins, mis-bind rejected).
Reviewed adversarially across payment-integrity, leak/oracle, and config/DoS
lenses; the confirmed findings (0-conf, expiry bound, Settled-means-paid-in-full
adapter contract, rotation-branch bypass guard) are addressed here.
Default restore policy is now create-only — which betrays no self-sovereignty,
since that lives at the ECOSYSTEM level (run your own backend). On top of the
create-only|bounded|unlimited depth gate, restore depth can be PRICED in hashcash
PoW so an importer pays compute proportional to the chain-scan cost they impose
on the operator (deeper restore => more work).
- core::restore_pow: a self-contained hashcash bound to (asset, address,
start_height) — a solved nonce is valid only for that exact restore, so no
challenge state, no replay, no depth-downgrade. Difficulty = leading zero bits.
- RestoreConfig: pow_free_days / pow_days_per_bit (0 = off) / pow_max_bits curve;
required_restore_pow_bits + enforce_restore_pow (literal errors, no oracle).
- Enforced at xmr/wow register + grin scan via a new restore_pow_nonce; the curve
is advertised via /capabilities so the wallet computes + solves it.
- Default WALLET_RESTORE_POLICY flipped bounded -> create-only.
- Unit tests (curve scaling/cap, off-when-zero, valid/invalid nonce, hashcash
roundtrip + param-binding); .env.example; OpenAPI drift clean.
First of the operator-configurable registration gates (PoW-priced restore and
pay-to-register follow). A NEW wallet must present a valid invite code when
REGISTRATION_REQUIRE_INVITE is on; returning wallets and self-hosting bypass it,
and the active gates are advertised via /capabilities so the wallet shapes
onboarding.
- migration + db: invite_codes table storing only sha256(code) (128-bit codes,
no pepper needed). Redemption is an atomic single-statement claim
(UPDATE ... WHERE used_at IS NULL RETURNING) — single-use even under concurrent
submission (L1 test fires 8 concurrent claims; exactly one wins).
- core::invite: generate (base58, 128-bit) + sha256 hash.
- enforce_invite in extension_register, mirroring enforce_pow (returning bypass;
ONE literal error for not-found/used/expired — never an oracle).
- RegistrationConfig.require_invite + RegistrationCapability in /capabilities.
- smirk-admin mint-invite --count/--label (prints raw codes once; stores hashes).
- L1 tests (single-use + concurrency race), .env.example, OpenAPI (drift clean).
How far back a wallet may ask THIS instance to scan on import is an operator
decision — the backfill cost lands on its LWS/node. Add WALLET_RESTORE_POLICY
(create-only | bounded | unlimited, default bounded) + WALLET_MAX_RESTORE_DEPTH_DAYS,
advertise it via /capabilities so the wallet adapts its import UX, and enforce
it at the scan path (xmr/wow register, grin scan): a too-deep start_height is a
ValidationError naming the bound, never the caller's value. Create needs no
check (no tip lookup). Self-sovereignty stays intact at the ecosystem level —
a deeper restore means self-hosting or a looser operator. Fail-closed config
validation; a unit test per policy; OpenAPI drift clean.
6 confirmed findings (review wqrd2gka3), 3 root-cause fixes:
- HIGH: execute_erasure had no status recheck and the sweeper's SKIP LOCKED row
lock was released before execution (separate connection), so (a) a request
CANCELLED after the sweep's SELECT was still executed, and (b) a fleet could
double-execute one erasure (duplicate hash-chained audit row, double count).
Fixed by making execution atomically CLAIM the row as its first statement —
`UPDATE ... SET status='completed' WHERE id=$1 AND status='confirmed'
RETURNING user_id` — and skipping (returns false) when 0 rows match. Only the
first executor of a still-confirmed request proceeds; a cancelled/already-done
row is a no-op; on any later failure the whole tx (claim included) rolls back.
- account-existence oracle: the absent-user request path returned a FRESH random
erasure_id + advancing scheduled_for each call, while a real account returned a
STABLE get-or-create id — a re-call distinguisher. The request response is now
constant-shape: a STABLE id (real, or a deterministic integrity-secret-keyed
synthetic for the absent path), a fixed "pending" status, and NO scheduled_for
(it's meaningful only at confirm, where grace starts, and is returned there).
- config: ERASURE_GRACE_PERIOD_HOURS is bounded (<= 10 years) in validate(), so
the u64->i64 cast can't wrap negative (defeating grace) and Duration::hours
can't panic.
Dismissed after verification: ERASURE_ENABLED without FEATURE_NOSTR_IDENTITY
(validate already requires PUBLIC_API_URL; the nostr_identity coupling is a
nicety). Tests extended: cancelled-request-not-executed (HIGH regression),
double-execute no-op. 140 lib + 140 integration green, no drift, scans clean.
The last operator subsystem: a user who no longer trusts the backend can reach in
and delete their data. Action-bound and two-phase.
- migration 20260626000003: erasure_requests (user_id ON DELETE SET NULL so the
completed tombstone survives the user delete; one-live-request-per-user partial
unique index; due index).
- Proof model (§5.2): every action is a fresh NIP-98 signed action (purpose
erasure_request/confirm/cancel/export) bound to a single-use challenge nonce +
canonical descriptor + (confirm/cancel) the explicit erasure_id. A session
token is NEVER sufficient. Erasure targets only the users.id the proof's key
resolves to (via linked nostr_pubkey); leaked identifiers are never selectors.
Nonce consumed AFTER signature checks (forged sig can't burn a victim's nonce).
- Public routes (proof-gated): POST /account/erasure/challenge, /account/erasure
(request; ABSENT-user path returns identical shape — no account-existence
oracle), /account/erasure/:id/confirm (revokes live sessions), DELETE
/account/erasure/:id (cancel during grace), POST /account/export (see-before-
delete; omits view keys; audited).
- Execution (§5.7): a background sweeper claims confirmed-past-grace rows
(FOR UPDATE SKIP LOCKED) and runs ONE fail-closed tx: purge login_events
(the origin/asset/time quasi-identifier; default) or anonymize; scrub audit
PII; DELETE users (schema cascades wallets/sessions/keys/owned slatepacks,
SET NULL on counterparty/audit/login links); tombstone; hash-chained
account_erasure_completed audit.
- config: ERASURE_GRACE_PERIOD_HOURS (72h default); validate() requires the
integrity secret + PUBLIC_API_URL when erasure is enabled.
- 1 L1 test: export -> request -> confirm -> execute -> account gone, plus the
absent-user constant-shape path.
Scope (v1, documented): live primary. No at-rest view key exists to crypto-shred
(stateless-forward), so backup residue is bounded by retention-window docs, not
crypto-shred (non-v1 per decisions ledger). Deferred: LWS de-registration queue +
read-back probe (operators run their own LWS), audit cross-reference scrub on
OTHER users' rows, restore_attempt salted-rotated fingerprint, retention sweepers,
NIP-17 DM warning, in-flight-value blockers (no swaps/tips in the clean core),
hard per-day export rate cap, /admin/erasure/stuck observability. Routes are off
the public OpenAPI for now (stable contract; annotate later).
9 confirmed findings (review wbdf3c0sd), all fixed:
S4 (capabilities):
- REGRESSION: /capabilities reported grin_relay:false for a working relay (S4
wrongly coupled it to Grin chain serviceability). The relay is a non-custodial
mailbox — wallet broadcasts locally — so it is decoupled again. Removed the now-
dead grin_relay downgrade note.
S3 (bootstrap latch):
- A DELETE of the latch row escaped Locked without Tampered detection on a
CLI-bootstrapped-but-no-users instance (adoption keyed off `users` only). Boot
now adopts on has_any_users() OR has_any_admin_keys(), so a deleted latch
re-latches Locked instead of silently dropping to uninitialized.
- bootstrap_admin's single-bootstrap guard was a check-then-insert race (two
concurrent `setup` could seed two admins). It now takes the admin-keys mutation
advisory lock (shared with add/revoke/rotate) at the top of its tx.
S2 (admin posture + landing):
- Hard bind guard matched loopback by string prefix ("localhost".starts_with) —
"localhost.evil.com" slipped past. Now resolves via to_socket_addrs and requires
EVERY resolved addr to be loopback.
- host_allowed's IPv6 loopback check was an unanchored prefix ("[::1]" matched
"[::1].evil"); now anchored to exactly "[::1]" / "[::1]:port". +regression tests.
- Anti-clickjacking headers (X-Frame-Options/CSP) are now applied on the 403
Host-reject path too (computed on both branches, headers added once).
- GET /api/v1/server-info now returns a BARE 404 when landing is off (the
{error,code} envelope itself hinted the route exists).
- Public landing `chains` now uses the SAME serviceability predicate as
/capabilities (no over-advertising an unserviceable chain).
- Removed the dead/misleading PUBLIC_EXPOSE_FEATURES toggle (never read; the
feature tuple is intentionally never emitted anonymously).
Dismissed after verification: latch chains-by-flag (dup), title length bound
(operator-owned + escaped), prices:true with empty PRICES_ASSETS (documented).
140 lib + 140 integration green, no openapi drift, scans clean.
Admin posture (§2.1/§2.2):
- Hard fail-closed bind guard in main: a non-loopback ADMIN_BIND refuses startup
unless ADMIN_ALLOW_PUBLIC_BIND=true (was a warning).
- admin_plane_guard middleware on the admin router: Host allowlist
(localhost/127.0.0.1/[::1]/configured TOR_ADMIN_ONION; a missing Host is allowed
since rebinding must supply one and the bind is the primary control) to defeat
DNS-rebinding against the loopback socket, plus X-Frame-Options: DENY +
CSP frame-ancestors 'none' (anti-clickjacking). Still no CORS on the admin plane.
Public landing (§2.3), default-OFF, one fingerprint surface:
- GET /api/v1/server-info — built from a hand-written ServerInfo allowlist (never
by serializing config/state). Default projection is minimal { software.name,
status }; version (coarse major.minor), chains, price_feed, and uptime (bool
`up` only) are each individually opt-in. The enabled-feature tuple is NEVER
emitted anonymously (connected clients use /capabilities).
- GET / — minimal HTML (operator title HTML-escaped); bare 404 when off (does not
hint an admin plane exists). server-info also 404s when off.
- config: ADMIN_ALLOW_PUBLIC_BIND, TOR_ADMIN_ONION; PUBLIC_LANDING_TITLE +
per-field PUBLIC_EXPOSE_VERSION/CHAINS/PRICE_FEED toggles.
Tests: host_allowlist + html_escape unit tests; landing off->on minimal-projection
(asserts only software+status, no version/chains/features); admin-plane Host-403 +
anti-clickjacking headers. Landing/admin stay off the public OpenAPI.
Deferred (documented): §2.5 NIP-05 consent-gating (changes existing
/.well-known/nostr.json behavior — needs the standing v0.2.4-compat verification
first), §2.3 k-anon public stats, response-header/TLS-fingerprint stripping (proxy
/ops-doc concern).
"Sign in with Smirk" for operators. Auth is a NIP-98 signed action over a
single-use nonce (AUTHN) + the MAC'd allowlist (AUTHZ), composed in admin_guard
so a protected route physically cannot run without both. All rejections collapse
to one opaque 401 (no enumeration oracle).
- src/api/admin.rs: admin_guard (verify access token -> live session by jti ->
live MAC-verified, activated allowlist entry) + AdminContext; handlers:
- challenge: mint a 120s admin_login nonce + return the {url, instance_id} the
wallet must bind.
- verify: verify_signed_action (purpose/nonce/descriptor/instance) THEN consume
the nonce (forged sig can't burn a victim's nonce; replay loses the race) ->
authorize (pending key allowed for first login, which activates it) -> mint +
persist session AND the login audit row in ONE tx (fail-closed) -> bump
last_used.
- refresh: re-run FULL authorization before minting (closes the "8h refresh is
the real blast radius" gap) + constant-time refresh-hash bind + rotate jti so
the old access token dies.
- logout: revoke the session; audit. me: guarded whoami.
- admin_router (lib): served on a SEPARATE loopback socket in main (confidentiality
by socket, not middleware); no CORS layer (cross-origin browser calls blocked);
warns if bound non-loopback (hard bind-guard lands with admin posture). Routes
are intentionally absent from the public OpenAPI.
- config: ADMIN_PUBLIC_URL (the signed-action u-tag base; validated when enabled).
AppState.admin_sessions (Some only when enabled). AdminSessionManager.mint_access
(refresh) + db helpers (create_admin_session_audited, touch_admin_key_last_used).
- test harness: admin_router() + request_on(router); 1 L1 test exercising the full
flow end-to-end incl. user-token rejection, replay rejection, jti rotation, and
post-logout revocation.
NOTE (for the upcoming S1 review): admin-login timing-oracle hardening (fixed-cost
allowlist probe + jittered 401 floor, spec §1.3) is deferred — the loopback/onion
exposure + single-use nonce + signature gate are the v1 boundary. Per-pubkey
backoff (§0.5) also pending.
From a multi-lens adversarial review of the capabilities + prices work:
- PRICES_ASSETS="" now means NONE, not all (real bug): from_env used env_opt,
which collapses unset and present-but-empty into None, so the documented
"empty = none" silently served all five feeds. Read via env::var so unset =>
all, present (even empty) => the listed subset or none.
- PRICES_CURRENCY is now validated against a curated SUPPORTED_PRICE_CURRENCIES
allowlist. Previously a typo (e.g. "usdd") booted, advertised prices:true, and
served an empty feed forever (the provider returns empty quotes for an unknown
currency) — a fail-open path inconsistent with the adjacent provider/asset
checks.
- PRICES_PROVIDER is lowercased at read, matching the asset/currency
normalization (mixed-case no longer trips the allowlist).
- validate() now requires an Electrum URL for an enabled BTC/LTC chain (hard
error in prod, warn in dev), symmetric with the xmr/wow/grin secret checks.
Keeps /capabilities honest: a chain it can't serve won't boot advertising
itself as available.
Tests: config regressions (currency, utxo-electrum); a PriceClient feed-subset
selection unit test; the /prices integration test now populates the snapshot and
asserts the served quotes + RFC-3339 timestamp (the prior PRICES_ASSETS env-var
was inert under the harness); capabilities asserts network presence/null across
all five chains.
Dismissed after verification: coingecko json() was already switched to a
streaming read_capped; fleet refresh-jitter (no API key, single-node,
self-healing on 429); prices capability staying a bare bool (/prices carries the
currency + per-asset map).
Cached crypto→fiat price feed, refreshed by a background task and served from an
in-memory snapshot — no upstream call on the request path. Public and
feature-flagged: when FEATURE_PRICES is off, /prices is 404 and no upstream is
ever contacted.
Per-feed control, as a public server needs: PRICES_ASSETS narrows which feeds an
instance quotes (unset = all supported; an explicit list serves a subset; empty
serves none), validated fail-closed against SUPPORTED_PRICE_ASSETS. Provider
(PRICES_PROVIDER, coingecko) and currency (PRICES_CURRENCY, usd) are configurable;
the refresh interval is clamped to a provider-friendly minimum.
- infra/prices: PriceClient (feed whitelist → provider coin ids), bounded by the
HTTP client timeout; non-finite/negative/missing quotes are skipped, not faked.
A fetch failure keeps the last good snapshot. Drift guard: a test asserts the
provider mapping covers exactly SUPPORTED_PRICE_ASSETS.
- main: background refresh task only when enabled and at least one feed is set.
- AppState.prices snapshot; handler 404s when disabled.
- openapi (prices tag); unit tests + L1 test over both feature-flag states.
Layer global middleware onto build_router (applies to every route, shared by
main + the test harness):
- CORS: configurable allowed origins via CORS_ALLOWED_ORIGINS; empty -> allow
any origin, which is safe here because auth is a Bearer token (no cookies, no
ambient credentials). Credentials are never allowed.
- Body limit: 1 MiB global backstop (handlers already validate tighter per
field); /wallet/lws/submit_tx overrides to ~2 MiB+ for raw Monero tx hex.
- Timeout: 60s request backstop (above the chain clients' ~30s timeouts, so
their errors surface first; bounds any slow handler). Uses the http-aware
tower_http TimeoutLayer (-> 408), not tower::timeout (fallible, rejected by
axum's Infallible Router).
- gzip compression + request tracing (outermost).
Adds cors_allowed_origins config + the tower-http "timeout" feature. Per-IP
rate limiting is deliberately separate (needs ConnectInfo) — next commit.
All gates green; integration tests pass through the layered router (CORS/timeout/
compression/body-limit are oneshot-safe). openapi unchanged.
Final wallet-handler slice. An async store-and-forward mailbox for interactive
Grin transfers between two registered Smirk users, over the grin_slatepacks db.
Reworked clean from the legacy relay — NOT a port.
Endpoints (under /api/v1/wallet/grin/relay, JWT-gated):
- POST create {recipient_user_id, slate_id, slatepack, amount_nanogrin}
- GET pending -> the caller's inbox
- POST get {slate_id} -> poll a relay's state (sender/recipient)
- POST respond {slate_id, response_slatepack} (recipient)
- POST finalize {slate_id, tx_hash} (sender; RECORDS the txid only)
- POST cancel {slate_id} (sender or recipient)
Non-custodial: stores only opaque (encrypted) slatepacks + lifecycle status;
never holds keys, finalizes, or broadcasts. The wallet broadcasts locally (via
/wallet/grin/broadcast) and reports the txid here — diverging from the legacy
server-side post_tx (see docs/private/OWN_BACKEND_CONVERGENCE.md).
Controls + hardening (incl. fixes from the adversarial review workflow):
- Per-action authz: caller must be the slate's sender/recipient; a non-party
gets 404 (no existence oracle).
- slate_id is UNIQUE (+ validated as a UUID) and mutations key on the
authorized row's PRIMARY KEY, not slate_id — so a duplicate slate_id can't
brick a relay (fetch_optional-on-2-rows 500) or let a slate_id-keyed UPDATE
touch another row. create maps the unique violation to 409.
- State transitions are ATOMIC: the status + expiry preconditions live in the
UPDATE WHERE clause (not a Rust read-check-write), so respond-twice and
cancel-races-finalize cannot occur; a non-qualifying transition -> 409.
- TTL enforced at the action boundary (respond/finalize require expires_at >
now) + a periodic expire_old_slatepacks sweep in main.rs (relay-enabled only).
- Recipient must be a registered user; slatepack sizes capped (64 KiB).
- Behind FEATURE_GRIN_RELAY (default on).
6 paths + schemas + grin_relay tag in openapi (drift-clean). 4 L1 integration
tests against live Postgres: full lifecycle, unregistered-recipient 400, auth
gate, non-party/non-recipient 404s.
Electrum/Fulcrum already covers everything the backend needs for Bitcoin
and Litecoin — balance, UTXOs, history, tip, verbose tx, fee estimation,
and broadcast (blockchain.transaction.broadcast). A self-hosted Fulcrum
relays broadcasts to its own backing node, so a separate Bitcoin Core
RPC path buys nothing in the self-host model while adding the
bitcoincore-rpc + bitcoin + secp256k1 + jsonrpc dependency tree and a
duplicate broadcast surface.
- Remove the `bitcoincore-rpc` dependency (and its transitive tree).
- Slim `UtxoConfig` to pure Electrum config: drop use_local_node /
rpc_url / rpc_user / rpc_pass; keep network + electrum_primary +
electrum_fallbacks.
A future LTC-MWEB or direct-node provider is a distinct capability
(MWEB uses a scan-key model, not canonical scriptPubKeys) and would slot
in at the provider seam rather than extending this client — so nothing is
foreclosed by keeping the surface minimal now.
