# Session K — Transcript
> Date: 2026-05-28
> Goal: Execute Wave 4 of `ohm-rfc/ROADMAP.md` as the autonomous
> driver per the "Operating instructions for the next session"
> section. The operator is awake-ish but stepped away mid-session;
> the driver dispatches each shippable item per wave as a forked
> subagent in a single message, serializes the deploys, verifies
> each, and writes this transcript at end-of-session.
> Wave 4 targets: #7 Admin user-management page (Track C1, v0.9.0),
> #9 Trust device 30d (Track C2, v0.11.0), #10 CloudFlare Turnstile
> (Track C, v0.12.0 — required to pause on operator-provided
> `CLOUDFLARE_TURNSTILE_SECRET`).
>
> Outcome: **Two of three deployed to OHM live; third tagged and
> paused for the operator gesture, as designed.**
>
> - **#7 Admin user-management page shipped as rfc-app v0.9.0 to OHM
> live** (`deploys.id=15`, all 9 phases green, `/api/health` returns
> `{"version":"0.9.0","status":"ok"}`, `/admin/users` 200s).
> - **#9 Trust device 30d shipped as rfc-app v0.11.0 to OHM live**
> (`deploys.id=16`, all 9 phases green, `/api/health` returns
> `{"version":"0.11.0","status":"ok"}`).
> - **#10 CloudFlare Turnstile tagged as rfc-app v0.12.0** at
> `b3f1b15` on `origin` + `benstull`. The OHM deploy is paused —
> `flotilla deploy` not yet invoked — until the operator runs the
> two MUST gestures from the v0.12.0 CHANGELOG (see operator-plate
> §1 below). `ohm-rfc/.rfc-app-version` stays at `0.11.0` for now;
> OHM continues to serve v0.11.0 with abuse defense **off**.
>
> Four new roadmap items captured mid-session from the operator
> (added to `ohm-rfc/ROADMAP.md` as items #16, #17, #18, #19 —
> see arc 5 below): admin-create user with role + invite email,
> repo naming/location alignment, SMTP relay + Gitea webhook
> hardening, and CONTRIBUTING guides for rfc-app + ohm-rfc that
> link to the public session transcripts.
>
> **Session-letter correction logged:** the driver's prior commits
> in this session (`64f5344`, `54cadd8` on `ohm-rfc`) labeled this
> as Session J. The operator corrected mid-session: Session J was
> the parallel docs-feature / v0.14.0 session that ran during
> Session I's wind-down; this driver session is Session K. The
> correction landed in commit `cfc0c6a` on `ohm-rfc` (which fixed
> the two prior strikethrough rows). The mislabeled commits stay
> as-written — no force-push, no `--amend` — per session-protocol
> discipline.

## Pre-session state
- **rfc-app**: `main` at `de28272` (Release 0.14.0). `VERSION` =
`0.14.0`. Tags shipped through v0.14.0; the v0.x lineage so far
is `v0.2.0, .1, .2, .3, v0.3.0, v0.4.0, v0.5.0, v0.6.0, v0.7.0,
v0.8.0, v0.10.0, v0.13.0, v0.14.0` — note `v0.9.0`, `v0.11.0`,
and `v0.12.0` were unclaimed because items #7, #9, #10 hadn't
shipped yet. Last migration on disk: `015_passcode.sql`.
- **ohm-rfc**: `main` at `d6af91f` (Pin rfc-app to 0.14.0).
`.rfc-app-version` = `0.14.0`.
- **OHM live**: serving `v0.14.0` per
`https://ohm.wiggleverse.org/api/health`. `flotilla deploy log
ohm-rfc-app` shows last successful deploy as `deploys.id=14`
(`v0.14.0`, succeeded). Two preceding `failed` rows (id=12, 13)
were from the parallel docs-feature session retrying.
- **ohm-rfc-app-flotilla**: `main` at `a1588c1` (v1.0.1 + CLAUDE.md
bake-in). No work needed in this repo for Wave 4.
- **ohm-infra**: most recent transcript was Session I, published.
The convention says the next letter is J, but the parallel
docs-feature session that shipped v0.14.0 between Session I's
wind-down and this session's start claimed J — the operator
confirmed mid-session that this driver session is Session K
rather than J.
- **Driver brief**: the operator's bedtime prompt (the one that
opens this session) said Wave 4 lineup is #7 v0.9.0 + #9 v0.11.0
+ #10 v0.12.0, with #10 pausing on `CLOUDFLARE_TURNSTILE_SECRET`.
It also pre-allocated migration slots 016, 017, 018.
---
## Turn-by-turn arc
The session moves through five arcs, in order.
### Arc 1 — Reconnaissance + dispatch
The driver read `~/git/ohm-infra/SESSION-PROTOCOL.md` (the
binding cross-repo session shape) and `ohm-rfc/ROADMAP.md` (the
product order). Confirmed pre-session state: rfc-app main at
de28272 (v0.14.0), ohm-rfc pin at 0.14.0, OHM live on v0.14.0,
last migration 015. The bedtime prompt's claim that "OHM is
currently serving v0.10.0" was stale — the parallel docs-feature
session shipped v0.14.0 and successfully deployed it as
`deploys.id=14` before this session opened. Folded that into the
state model and proceeded.
The flotilla CLI is invoked as
`/Users/benstull/projects/wiggleverse/ohm-rfc-app-flotilla/.venv/bin/ohm-rfc-app-flotilla`
(the operator's transcript convention writes `flotilla` as
shorthand; there's no global `flotilla` binary).
Dispatched three subagents in a single `Agent` message with three
parallel tool uses, `subagent_type: general-purpose`, no
`isolation: worktree` (each subagent creates its own `git worktree
add` in `/Users/benstull/git/rfc-app` per Session-I lesson —
the `Agent` tool's worktree isolation only covers the flotilla
CWD, not the rfc-app CWD subagents need). Each prompt was
self-contained: full roadmap text, target version, reserved
migration slot, descending-order CHANGELOG insertion point, the
hard constraints (do NOT tag, do NOT touch the ohm-rfc pin, do
NOT run `flotilla deploy`, no force-push, no `--amend`, no secret
bytes, no `git config` edits), and a structured reporting brief.
### Arc 2 — Session κ ships #7 → v0.9.0
Subagent κ branched at `feature/v0.9.0-admin-users` off
`origin/main`. Built the `/admin/users` surface (state-filter
chips, permission badge, Grant / Revoke, sign-up reason
blockquote under pending rows, decided-by/decided-at audit trail).
Wired `POST /api/admin/users/{id}/permission` with
self-flip-refusal (422) and non-admin gate (403). Added the
`new_beta_request` notification event_kind (category
`admin-actionable`), fired by `notify.fan_out_new_beta_request`
on first complete capture submission. Widened `GET
/api/admin/users` payload. Updated BetaPending copy to be
honest about cadence (no SLA invented).
**No new migration.** The v0.8.0 `014_beta_access.sql` already
provides every column the page consumes. Slot 016 stays reserved.
**Allowlist decision:** `/admin/allowlist` stays as a sibling
sub-tab, not merged. The two surfaces key on different things
(allowlist by email pre-sign-up, user list by user_id
post-sign-up).
Pushed `feature/v0.9.0-admin-users` at `7872b92` to `origin` +
`benstull`. Tests: 200 passed (10 new in
`test_admin_users_vertical.py`). Frontend build clean.
Driver integration: clean fast-forward of `main` onto `7872b92`
(both v0.9.0 and v0.11.0 / v0.12.0 branched from de28272, but
v0.9.0 is the first to merge so it FFs trivially). Tagged
`v0.9.0` on the FF tip; pushed `main` + tag to `origin` +
`benstull`. Bumped `ohm-rfc/.rfc-app-version` from `0.14.0`
`0.9.0` (the pin tracks the *latest deployed framework version*,
not the highest semver). Ran `flotilla deploy ohm-rfc-app`:
opened `deploys.id=15`, all 9 phases green, verify took 4.8s,
`/api/health` returned `{"version":"0.9.0","status":"ok"}`.
The §8.2 stale-lockfile fault that bit Session I's v0.5.0 deploy
did NOT recur — subagent κ ran `npm install` in `frontend/` after
bumping `package.json`, the lockfile diff is in the commit, the
VM's `git checkout` had nothing to clobber.
### Arc 3 — Session λ ships #9 → v0.11.0
Subagent λ branched at `feature/v0.11.0-device-trust` off
`origin/main` (same merge base as κ — de28272). Built the trust-
device gesture: checkbox on OTC + passcode verify steps, opaque
token + `rfc_device_trust` cookie (HttpOnly + Secure +
SameSite=Lax + 30-day Max-Age), `POST /auth/device-trust/start`
to re-establish session on returning visit, `/settings/
notifications → Trusted devices` revoke list with per-row +
revoke-all controls, three new endpoints (`GET /api/auth/me/
devices`, `DELETE` for one and all).
Migration `017_device_trust.sql`: new `device_trust` table —
`id`, `user_id` (FK CASCADE), `device_token_hash` (bcrypt,
unique idx), `created_at`, `expires_at` (= created + 30 days),
`user_agent`, `last_seen_at`, `revoked_at` NULL. Secondary idx
on `(user_id, revoked_at)` for fast active-row lookup.
Security shape: raw token never logged or stored, only the
bcrypt hash; lookup walks the candidate set with
`bcrypt.checkpw` for constant-time per row. A handled detail:
on a miss, `device_trust_start` returns a hand-built
`JSONResponse` (not `HTTPException`) so the cookie-clear
`Set-Cookie` header rides on the 401 — FastAPI's exception path
drops `set_cookie` calls.
Pushed `feature/v0.11.0-device-trust` at `abd3626`. Tests: 204
passed (14 new in `test_device_trust_vertical.py`, covering
cookie shape, hash≠raw-token, expired/revoked/forged clears,
single + cross-user + revoke-all). Frontend build clean.
Driver integration was the first non-FF cherry-pick of the
session — both v0.9.0 and v0.11.0 branched from de28272, so
once v0.9.0 was on main at 7872b92, v0.11.0's commit had to be
cherry-picked. Conflicts: `VERSION`, `frontend/package.json`,
`frontend/package-lock.json` (all three on the version-bump
line; resolved by taking the v0.11.0 value), `CHANGELOG.md`
(auto-merge succeeded — v0.11.0's entry slotted between 0.13.0
and 0.10.0, v0.9.0's entry between 0.10.0 and 0.8.0, no
overlap), `SPEC.md` (auto-merge succeeded, both releases
appended to §19.2 candidates in separate spots),
`backend/app/api.py` (auto-merge succeeded). The post-cherry-
pick tree at `6fb68a9` ran 214 tests green (= 190 base + 10
κ + 14 λ); tagged `v0.11.0`, pushed `main` + tag to `origin` +
`benstull`. Bumped pin `0.9.0``0.11.0`; ran `flotilla
deploy ohm-rfc-app`: opened `deploys.id=16`, all 9 phases
green, verify 2.4s, `/api/health` returned
`{"version":"0.11.0","status":"ok"}`.
A snag worth naming: the shared backend `.venv` at
`/Users/benstull/git/rfc-app/backend/.venv` does NOT have
`app/` on its import path by default — running pytest from
that directory requires `PYTHONPATH=.`. The subagents had
worked in their own worktrees (where they presumably set up
their own pytest config or used `pyproject.toml` adjacency);
the driver's verification pytest had to be run with
`PYTHONPATH=. .venv/bin/pytest -q` from `backend/`. Not a
release fault — just a re-discovery of the test-runner
ergonomic. §19.2 candidate: a `backend/conftest.py` or a
`backend/pyproject.toml` `[tool.pytest.ini_options]
pythonpath = ["."]` that makes pytest invocable without
the `PYTHONPATH` rune.
### Arc 4 — Session μ tags #10 → v0.12.0, deploy paused
Subagent μ branched at `feature/v0.12.0-turnstile` off
`origin/main` (also from de28272). Built the Turnstile path:
- `backend/app/turnstile.py` with `VerifyOutcome` enum (`ok`,
`skipped`, `misconfigured`, `missing-token`, `failed`,
`network`).
- `OtcRequestBody.turnstile_token` field; `/auth/otc/request`
calls `verify_token` before bcrypt + SMTP so a failed challenge
spends no rate budget.
- `TurnstileWidget.jsx` React wrapper over the official CloudFlare
JS API (dynamic script load, cleanup on unmount).
- Widget rendered on email-entry step + on passcode-verify step
(for the "Use a code instead" fallback dispatch, which calls
the same `/auth/otc/request` endpoint).
**No migration.** Slot 018 stays reserved.
**`TURNSTILE_REQUIRED` default: `false`.** Rationale: the operator
may temporarily forget to set the secret; soft-fail-on-missing-
secret keeps `/login` working during the wave-pause. The CHANGELOG
MAY-step tells the operator to flip to `true` once they've
confirmed a real sign-in works end-to-end so a future config drift
fails loud (HTTP 500 "auth misconfigured") instead of silently
disabling abuse defense.
Pushed `feature/v0.12.0-turnstile` at `f7228d2`. Tests: 195 passed
(5 new in `test_turnstile_vertical.py`; `httpx.post` mocked at the
`app.turnstile` boundary). Frontend build clean with and without
`VITE_TURNSTILE_SITE_KEY` set.
Driver integration was the most-conflicted cherry-pick — v0.11.0
and v0.12.0 share the `Login.jsx` verify step (both wanted to
inject a child element there) and share `SPEC.md` §19.2 (v0.11.0
moved the "Device trust" candidate to "Settled" + added three new
candidates; v0.12.0 moved the "Cloudflare Turnstile" candidate to
"Settled"). Resolutions:
- `Login.jsx`: keep both — v0.11.0's trust-device checkbox renders
first, v0.12.0's `<TurnstileWidget>` renders after it. They are
orthogonal UI elements on the passcode-verify step.
- `SPEC.md` §19.2: keep v0.11.0's "Settled" device-trust entry +
all three new v0.11.0-surfaced candidates (cross-device session
revocation, password-equivalent change invalidates trust,
device-trust window tunables) + v0.12.0's "Settled" Turnstile
entry. Dropped v0.11.0's old "still-open Turnstile" candidate
text and v0.12.0's old "still-open Device trust" candidate text
(both superseded by the Settled-in-this-release entries on the
other side of the merge).
- `CHANGELOG.md`: the auto-merger combined-but-overlapped the
v0.11.0 and v0.12.0 entries (each tried to slot between 0.13.0
and 0.10.0). Resolved by hand-assembling the file into strict
descending order: 0.12.0 above 0.11.0 above 0.10.0. The two
entries are unaffected internally; the merge was purely about
their relative position.
- `VERSION`, `frontend/package.json`, `frontend/package-lock.json`:
resolved to v0.12.0 (the target).
Post-cherry-pick tree at `b3f1b15` ran 219 tests green (= 214
prior + 5 μ). Tagged `v0.12.0`; pushed `main` + tag to `origin` +
`benstull`.
**At the original cut, the driver did NOT bump pin and did NOT
run `flotilla deploy`.** The wave is paused on the operator
gesture spelled out in the v0.12.0 CHANGELOG `MUST` block.
(After the original cut, the operator returned and cleared the
pause; see Arc 6 / Post-publish addendum below.)
The CHANGELOG `MUST` block:
```
flotilla secret set ohm-rfc-app CLOUDFLARE_TURNSTILE_SECRET
flotilla overlay set ohm-rfc-app VITE_TURNSTILE_SITE_KEY <site-key>
# Optional after end-to-end verification:
flotilla overlay set ohm-rfc-app TURNSTILE_REQUIRED true
```
Once the operator confirms both env values are set, they (or the
next driver session) bump the pin `0.11.0``0.12.0` and run
`flotilla deploy ohm-rfc-app`. With `TURNSTILE_REQUIRED=false`,
deploying without the secret is non-fatal — `/login` still serves
but abuse defense is silently off; the pause exists for *rollout
correctness*, not crash-prevention.
### Arc 5 — Operator adds #16, #17, #18, #19 mid-session
While the driver was integrating v0.9.0, v0.11.0, and v0.12.0,
the operator sent four asynchronous roadmap-add messages.
Captured and added to `ohm-rfc/ROADMAP.md`:
- **#16 Admin-create user + invite email (custom message).**
rfc-app, Track C, depends on #5 + #7. The new affordance lives
on the v0.9.0 `/admin/users` surface: admin types first/last/
email, picks a role, optionally adds a custom message text,
clicks Create — the system sends an invite email with a claim
link. Distinguishes from #12 (per-RFC contribution invite) by
being platform-level access provisioning rather than per-RFC
membership.
- **#17 Repo naming + location alignment across
`git.wiggleverse.org` + `git.benstull.org`.** Track Ω, no
rfc-app version. Inventory + propose + execute the moves
(personal-namespace `rfc-app``wiggleverse/`, mirror
convention, per-deployment-flotilla naming rule documentation),
with tombstone redirects + cross-repo reference updates. Likely
a multi-session arc.
- **#18 Secure the SMTP relay + (Gitea) webhook.** Partly Track Ω
(SMTP creds, TLS, SPF/DKIM/DMARC, ingress restriction, bounce
surfacing), partly Track C (webhook signature verification,
replay-resistance, ingress). One session to inventory + fix
easy wins; follow-ups for anything that turns into a framework
release.
- **#19 CONTRIBUTING guides + transcript-linked onboarding.**
Two `CONTRIBUTING.md` files (rfc-app + ohm-rfc) that point
outside contributors at the public session transcripts at
`wiggleverse/ohm-session-history` as the authoritative
development arc, plus the explicit boundary: contributors open
PRs; the **operator alone** approves, merges, bumps the pin,
sets secrets, and runs `flotilla deploy`. Operator's phrasing:
"I'm the only one that gets to yolo."
All four added as prose sections after #14 and as rows in the
version-target table. Items #16 and #17 landed in commit
`64f5344` on `ohm-rfc` (alongside the v0.9.0 pin bump); #18
landed in `cfc0c6a` (alongside the v0.12.0 status row); #19
landed in `cce9fe3` as a standalone roadmap commit at the very
end of the session.
The mid-session correction — "Not session J — session K" — landed
in `cfc0c6a` too: it fixed the two prior strikethrough rows
(`#7` v0.9.0 and `#9` v0.11.0) to attribute Session K, not J.
The two prior commits with the wrong attribution (`64f5344`,
`54cadd8`) stay as written, with the correction documented in
this transcript per session-protocol §3 (no curation, no
amend-after-push).

## §19.2 candidates surfaced
Numbered list of architectural / process / spec deferrals this
session uncovered.
1. **Cross-device session revocation surface** (v0.11.0).
`/settings/notifications → Trusted devices` revokes device-trust
rows. It does NOT revoke active session cookies in another
browser, or v0.10.0's passcode-failure counter, or future
credential shapes. The natural next step is one "active
sessions and devices" page that lists every credential
authenticating as this user. Earns its session when a second
cross-cutting concern lands — most likely WebAuthn / Yubikey
support.
2. **Password-equivalent change invalidates device trust** (v0.11.0).
v0.11.0 intentionally leaves device-trust rows live across
passcode set / change / clear. The argument is structural; the
argument against is conventional. Earns its session on either a
security-review finding or user feedback.
3. **Device-trust window tunables via env** (v0.11.0). The 30-day
window is hard-coded as `TRUST_DURATION_DAYS = 30` in
`backend/app/device_trust.py`. Surface as
`DEVICE_TRUST_DURATION_DAYS` env var when a deployment asks.
4. **Grant/revoke user-facing notification** (v0.9.0). The
`personal_change_affecting_me` enum already exists; v0.9.0
doesn't fire it on grant/revoke. Small follow-up.
5. **Decline-with-reason on Revoke** (v0.9.0). Free-text into
`permission_events.details` JSON; no schema change. Small
follow-up.
6. **Allowlist deprecation** (v0.9.0). The `/admin/allowlist`
surface stays as a sibling sub-tab in v0.9.0; the question of
whether to retire the `allowed_emails` table once `/admin/users`
handles every pending-user case is deferred to post-v0.9.0
operator experience.
7. **backend pytest `PYTHONPATH=.` rune** (driver discovery
during v0.11.0 integration). The shared `backend/.venv` doesn't
put `app/` on the import path; `pytest` from `backend/`
requires `PYTHONPATH=.`. A `backend/conftest.py` or a
`backend/pyproject.toml`
`[tool.pytest.ini_options]\npythonpath = ["."]` fixes it.
Trivial; flag for a future cleanup session.
(The §3-invariant-1 hygiene is unchanged: no secret bytes anywhere
in any of the commits or this transcript. `CLOUDFLARE_TURNSTILE_SECRET`
is referenced by name; its bytes live only in the operator's
hand.)
---
## What lands on the operator's plate
1. **Run the v0.12.0 wave-pause gesture and re-enter the wave.**
The CloudFlare Turnstile release is tagged but not deployed.
The operator must:
```
/Users/benstull/projects/wiggleverse/ohm-rfc-app-flotilla/.venv/bin/ohm-rfc-app-flotilla \
secret set ohm-rfc-app CLOUDFLARE_TURNSTILE_SECRET
/Users/benstull/projects/wiggleverse/ohm-rfc-app-flotilla/.venv/bin/ohm-rfc-app-flotilla \
overlay set ohm-rfc-app VITE_TURNSTILE_SITE_KEY <site-key>
```
then (in `ohm-rfc/`):
```
echo 0.12.0 > .rfc-app-version
git add .rfc-app-version
git commit -m "Pin rfc-app 0.12.0 (Turnstile)"
git push origin main
```
then back in the flotilla CWD:
```
/Users/benstull/projects/wiggleverse/ohm-rfc-app-flotilla/.venv/bin/ohm-rfc-app-flotilla \
deploy ohm-rfc-app
```
After verification with a real sign-in, flip the production-
locked shape:
```
/Users/benstull/projects/wiggleverse/ohm-rfc-app-flotilla/.venv/bin/ohm-rfc-app-flotilla \
overlay set ohm-rfc-app TURNSTILE_REQUIRED true
```
The next driver session will strikethrough `#10` in
`ohm-rfc/ROADMAP.md` once the deploy completes successfully.
2. **Decide phasing for items #16, #17, #18, #19.** Four new
roadmap items captured this session; pick which wave each rides.
#16 (admin-create user + invite) is naturally a Wave-5 candidate
alongside #12. #17 (repo naming) is operator-led; the inventory
step can be a Track-Ω subagent but the rename gestures are
live moves. #18 (SMTP + webhook hardening) is similar — partly
subagent-doable, partly operator-led. #19 (CONTRIBUTING guides)
is a Track-Ω docs PR that can ride alongside any other item;
a subagent can draft it and the operator approves + merges
as a normal PR.
3. **Cleanup**: there are no leftover worktrees on
`/Users/benstull/git/rfc-app` — all three subagent worktrees
were removed at the end of the session.
4. **§19.2-list follow-up.** Seven candidates surfaced this session
(see above). None blocks the next wave. The pytest-PYTHONPATH
one is trivial enough to be folded into the next session's
warm-up.
5. **Session-letter correction documentation**: this transcript
records the J→K correction explicitly. If the parallel
docs-feature session (the real Session J) hasn't yet published
its transcript, that's its own session's responsibility — not
this one's.
---
## Prompt the operator can paste into the next Claude Code session
```
You are the OHM roadmap driver. The previous session (Session K)
shipped rfc-app v0.9.0 (admin user-management page, item #7,
deploys.id=15) and v0.11.0 (trust device 30d, item #9,
deploys.id=16) to OHM. v0.12.0 (CloudFlare Turnstile, item #10)
is tagged at `b3f1b15` on origin + benstull but the OHM deploy is
paused on `CLOUDFLARE_TURNSTILE_SECRET` + `VITE_TURNSTILE_SITE_KEY`
(see SESSION-K transcript §"operator plate"). OHM serves v0.11.0
until the operator clears the pause.
Four new roadmap items landed mid-Session-K from the operator:
- #16 admin-create user + invite email (with optional custom
message), rfc-app, depends on #5 + #7.
- #17 repo naming + location alignment across
`git.wiggleverse.org` + `git.benstull.org`, ohm-infra + cross-
repo, Track Ω.
- #18 secure the SMTP relay + Gitea webhook, partly ohm-infra,
partly rfc-app framework hardening.
- #19 CONTRIBUTING guides for rfc-app + ohm-rfc that link to the
public session transcripts at
`wiggleverse/ohm-session-history`, with the explicit boundary
that contributors open PRs and the operator alone bumps pins +
sets secrets + runs flotilla deploy.
Read `~/git/ohm-infra/SESSION-PROTOCOL.md` and
`/Users/benstull/projects/wiggleverse/ohm-rfc/ROADMAP.md`
end-to-end. Pick a path:
A. **Finish Wave 4** by clearing the v0.12.0 pause: if the
operator has set `CLOUDFLARE_TURNSTILE_SECRET` and
`VITE_TURNSTILE_SITE_KEY`, bump pin to 0.12.0 and deploy.
Verify `/api/health` returns `{"version":"0.12.0","status":"ok"}`
and that a `/login` page renders the Turnstile widget. Then
strikethrough `#10` in ROADMAP. Then ask the operator before
flipping `TURNSTILE_REQUIRED=true`.
B. **Start Wave 5** if Wave 4 is clear and the operator wants to
advance:
- Session ν (Track B): #12 Owner invite → v0.16.0 (slot 14 was
claimed by docs).
- Session ξ (Track A): #13 Amplitude → v0.15.0 (operator must
provide `AMPLITUDE_API_KEY` — same wave-pause pattern as #10).
- Optionally session ρ: #16 Admin-create user + invite → next
available slot. Lives on the v0.9.0 surface; subagent should
read `frontend/src/components/Admin.jsx` and
`backend/app/api_admin.py` for the create-user affordance,
plus `backend/app/email.py` for the invite-email template.
Wave-5 dispatch should reuse Session K's subagent pattern: each
subagent creates its own `git worktree add` in
`/Users/benstull/git/rfc-app`, pushes a feature branch, does NOT
tag, does NOT touch the ohm-rfc pin, does NOT run flotilla deploy
— the driver integrates serially. The cherry-pick conflicts are
all in the same usual places: `VERSION`, `frontend/package.json`,
`frontend/package-lock.json`, `CHANGELOG.md` (strict descending
order), `SPEC.md` §19.2, occasionally `Login.jsx`.
Session-K lessons to apply automatically:
- Subagents push feature branches only. Driver tags, bumps the
pin, deploys.
- Migration slots: 016 + 018 stayed reserved (no schema change
needed for #7 or #10). 017 was used by #9. Next free is 016 or
018 depending on what's next.
- CHANGELOG inserts go in version-descending order. After v0.12.0
the file is: 0.14.0 → 0.13.0 → 0.12.0 → 0.11.0 → 0.10.0 → 0.9.0
→ 0.8.0 → ... — subagents inserting a new entry slot it at the
right position; cherry-pick conflicts get hand-assembled if two
features ship at adjacent slots.
- backend pytest needs `PYTHONPATH=.` from `backend/` unless
someone fixes the §19.2 candidate.
- `Login.jsx` is now contested territory — two consecutive
releases (v0.11.0 + v0.12.0) edited the same component on the
verify step. Expect a conflict any time #16's admin-create-user
invite-claim flow shares the path.
- Item #1 VM rename and operator-provided secrets stay operator
territory.

## Post-publish addendum (Arc 6 + Arc 7)
The transcript above was published at `2c97694` on
`wiggleverse/ohm-session-history` at the original cut. The
operator returned a few minutes later, cleared the v0.12.0
wave-pause, and the session continued. The record below carries
that continuation, per session-protocol §3 ("no curation; the
wrong turns stay; cleanup is dishonest"). The original transcript
filename's end-time (`03-55`) stamps the *first* close, not the
truly-final close (`~04-20`). Future readers: read past the
addendum.
### Arc 6 — Hard rule: never EVER ask the operator for secret bytes
After the original publish, when the driver tried to dispatch the
v0.12.0 deploy, it asked the operator how to receive the
`CLOUDFLARE_TURNSTILE_SECRET` — offering "paste it in this thread"
as one of two options. The operator corrected, firmly:
> "Nah I'm not sharing secrets with you. Update CLAUDE.md or
> whatever to make it clear you should never EVER ask for
> secrets."
The driver codified the rule in
`ohm-rfc-app-flotilla/CLAUDE.md` (commit `20c7729`) and in
`~/.claude/.../memory/feedback_never_ask_for_secrets.md` (auto-
memory). The rule's `Why:` line names this exact incident; the
`How to apply:` line is the canonical secret-set gesture — pipe
the value from clipboard or a `read -rs` shell var into
`flotilla secret set` so the bytes go operator-stdin → GCP
Secret Manager without ever entering the conversation.
A follow-up correction landed when the driver's first version of
the rule described `flotilla secret set` as interactive — it
isn't, it errors when stdin is a TTY, deliberately. The operator
ran the proposed gesture, hit the error, and corrected the
shape. The driver pushed the fix at `65c0e55`.
This rule is now binding for all future OHM sessions. The
conversation-layer corollary of §3 invariant 1 is: secret bytes
never enter the conversation either, because OHM sessions
publish in full.
A small UX find from this exchange: `pbpaste | flotilla secret
set …` is the smoothest gesture on macOS — the secret moves
clipboard → stdin → Secret Manager without appearing in shell
history, the terminal, or any model context. Operator's
reaction: "oh this is super smart - I lvoe this." Worth keeping
as the documented default.
### Arc 7 — v0.12.0 ships, TURNSTILE_REQUIRED flipped
Operator set `VITE_TURNSTILE_SITE_KEY` (non-secret site key
`0x4AAAAAADXziMhZwT0pKCud` — pasted in conversation, set via
`flotilla overlay set`) and `CLOUDFLARE_TURNSTILE_SECRET` (via
the clipboard-pipe gesture above). The driver verified the
binding with `flotilla secret list ohm-rfc-app`:
```
CLOUDFLARE_TURNSTILE_SECRET → wiggleverse-ohm/ohm-rfc-app-cloudflare-turnstile-secret@latest
```
Bumped `ohm-rfc/.rfc-app-version` 0.11.0 → 0.12.0
(commit `8701035`), pushed, ran `flotilla deploy ohm-rfc-app`:
opened `deploys.id=17`, all 9 phases green, `/api/health`
returned `{"version":"0.12.0","status":"ok"}`, `/login` 200s,
the frontend bundle includes two references to "turnstile" (the
widget component + the dynamic script-load).
Operator then said "go ahead and flip it now" for the soft-fail
→ fail-closed `TURNSTILE_REQUIRED=true` overlay flip. The
driver ran:
```
flotilla overlay set ohm-rfc-app TURNSTILE_REQUIRED=true
flotilla deploy ohm-rfc-app
```
Second deploy opened `deploys.id=18`, all 9 phases green,
`/api/health` returned the same `0.12.0/ok` shape. The
production-locked Turnstile gate is now in effect: if the secret
ever disappears or siteverify ever returns non-success, OTC
requests 500 with "auth misconfigured" instead of silently
passing through.
ROADMAP row strikethrough for #10 finalized with deploys.id=17
(commit `9654cbb`).

## §19.2 candidates surfaced in the addendum
8. **`flotilla secret set` ergonomics / docs.** The CLI is
stdin-only-by-design (errors on TTY) but the operator-guide
doesn't lead with the pipe-from-clipboard gesture as the
default; the assistant landed on it through trial. Worth a
small docs PR to flotilla's operator-guide that names
`pbpaste | flotilla secret set …` as the canonical one-liner
(with the `read -rs` fallback for non-macOS).
(Otherwise the addendum surfaced no new architectural deferrals.)
---
## Updated next-session prompt
```
You are the OHM roadmap driver. The previous session (Session K)
shipped rfc-app v0.9.0 (admin user-management, #7, deploys.id=15),
v0.11.0 (trust device 30d, #9, deploys.id=16), and v0.12.0
(CloudFlare Turnstile, #10, deploys.id=17 → 18 after
TURNSTILE_REQUIRED=true flip) to OHM. All of Wave 4 is closed.
OHM serves v0.12.0 with Turnstile abuse defense fail-closed.
Read `~/git/ohm-infra/SESSION-PROTOCOL.md` and
`/Users/benstull/projects/wiggleverse/ohm-rfc/ROADMAP.md`
end-to-end. The next session letter is L (Session K = this driver,
Session J = the parallel docs-feature/v0.14.0 session).
**Hard rule baked in mid-Session-K**: never EVER ask the operator
to paste secret bytes into the conversation, not even as one
offered option. Sessions publish in full to
`wiggleverse/ohm-session-history`; secret bytes in the transcript
are leaked secrets. The canonical secret-set gesture is the
clipboard pipe: `pbpaste | flotilla secret set <deployment>
<SECRET_NAME>`. The full rule is at
`ohm-rfc-app-flotilla/CLAUDE.md` ("Never EVER ask the operator
for secret bytes" section).
The active wave is Wave 5. Per the roadmap:
- **Session ν (Track B): #12 Owner invite → v0.16.0** (originally
v0.14.0, but Session J's docs-feature claimed v0.14.0; #12
bumped to next available slot. Depends on #5 + #7 — both
shipped.)
- **Session ξ (Track A): #13 Amplitude → v0.15.0** (operator
must provide `AMPLITUDE_API_KEY` — same wave-pause pattern as
#10's `CLOUDFLARE_TURNSTILE_SECRET`. Subagent CHANGELOG MUST
step pauses the wave; do not invent the key.)
Plus four operator-added items captured in Session K:
- **#16 Admin-create user + invite email** (with optional
custom message). rfc-app, depends on #5 + #7 (both shipped).
Lives on `/admin/users` from v0.9.0. A natural Wave-5 candidate
alongside #12 + #13.
- **#17 Repo naming + location alignment.** ohm-infra +
cross-repo, Track Ω. Operator-led; inventory subagent
doable, rename gestures are live moves.
- **#18 Secure the SMTP relay + Gitea webhook.** Partly ops
(SMTP creds, TLS, SPF/DKIM/DMARC), partly framework (webhook
signature verification, replay-resistance). Mixed Track Ω +
Track C.
- **#19 CONTRIBUTING guides for rfc-app + ohm-rfc** that link
to public session transcripts. Track Ω docs PR; subagent can
draft, operator approves + merges. Explicit boundary: operator
alone bumps pins, sets secrets, runs flotilla deploy. ("I'm
the only one that gets to yolo.")
Dispatch shape: same as Session K. Each subagent creates its own
`git worktree add` in `/Users/benstull/git/rfc-app`, pushes a
feature branch, does NOT tag, does NOT touch the ohm-rfc pin,
does NOT run flotilla deploy — the driver integrates serially.
Session-K lessons to apply automatically:
- Subagents push feature branches only. Driver tags, bumps the
pin, deploys.
- Migration slots: 015 (v0.10.0 passcode), 017 (v0.11.0
device_trust) are used. Slots 016 + 018 stayed reserved (no
schema change needed for #7 or #10). Next free: 016, 018, 019,
020, …
- CHANGELOG inserts strict-descending. After v0.12.0 the file
is 0.14.0 → 0.13.0 → 0.12.0 → 0.11.0 → 0.10.0 → 0.9.0 → 0.8.0
→ 0.7.0 → 0.6.0 → 0.5.0 → 0.4.0 → 0.3.0 → 0.2.x. Subagents
inserting a new entry slot it at the right position; cherry-
pick conflicts get hand-assembled at integration time when two
parallel features ship at adjacent slots (Session K hit this
for v0.11.0 + v0.12.0 — both wanted to insert above v0.10.0).
- backend pytest needs `PYTHONPATH=.` from `backend/` unless a
future cleanup adds `[tool.pytest.ini_options] pythonpath =
["."]` to `backend/pyproject.toml` (§19.2 candidate #7).
- `Login.jsx` is now contested territory — Sessions K's v0.11.0
+ v0.12.0 both edited the verify step. Expect a conflict any
time a future release touches the auth path. Resolve by keeping
both injections in sequence (driver pattern from Session K).
- `Admin.jsx` is now contested territory too if #16 ships on top
of #7 (v0.9.0)'s admin surface.
- Operator-provided secrets stay operator territory. The wave-
pause pattern from #10 is the binding shape: subagent writes
CHANGELOG MUST step; driver tags but does NOT bump the pin or
deploy; operator runs `pbpaste | flotilla secret set …` and
any required `flotilla overlay set …`; operator says "go" and
the driver bumps + deploys.
- Item #1 VM rename and the new operator-decision items (#17
inventory, #19 PR coordination) stay operator territory.
