# Agent

Name: Agent 05 - API Keys And Access Control (fix round)

Stage: API Keys And Access Control

Date: 2026-04-14

## Scope

Fixed the validation findings for Agent 05 without expanding into the client API stage.

Completed in this fix round:

- added explicit anti-cache headers for the one-time raw API key reveal response so the secret-bearing HTML is marked non-cacheable;
- changed the immediate post-create detail render to hydrate from the persisted API key record and persisted scope rows while still showing the raw key only on that one response;
- extended HTTP integration coverage to verify:
  - the creation response includes anti-cache headers;
  - the creation response shows saved name, description, scope mode, permissions, and selected project or tag rules;
  - the raw key is present on the creation response and absent on later detail loads.

## Files Changed

- `/Users/delete/projects/update_server/internal/http/admin_api_keys.go`
- `/Users/delete/projects/update_server/internal/http/api_keys_integration_test.go`
- `/Users/delete/projects/update_server/docs/agents/handoffs/05-api-keys-fix.md`

## Database Changes

- no schema or migration changes were required;
- the existing API key hash and scope storage model remains unchanged.

## API Or Route Changes

- no routes were added or removed;
- `POST /admin/api-keys` now returns the one-time reveal page with explicit anti-cache headers:
  - `Cache-Control: no-store, private, max-age=0`
  - `Pragma: no-cache`
  - `Expires: 0`

## Commands And Tests Run

- `gofmt -w internal/http/admin_api_keys.go internal/http/api_keys_integration_test.go` - passed;
- `GOCACHE=/tmp/go-build-agent05-fix GOMODCACHE=/tmp/go-mod-agent05-2 go test ./internal/http` - passed;
- `GOCACHE=/tmp/go-build-agent05-fix-all GOMODCACHE=/tmp/go-mod-agent05-2 go test ./...` - passed;
- `GOCACHE=/tmp/go-build-agent05-fix-build GOMODCACHE=/tmp/go-mod-agent05-2 go build -o /tmp/update-server-agent05-fix ./cmd/server` - passed;
- `GOCACHE=/tmp/go-build-agent05-fix-build2 GOMODCACHE=/tmp/go-mod-agent05-2 go build -o /tmp/update-migrate-agent05-fix ./cmd/migrate` - passed.

## Known Limitations

- the one-time reveal still intentionally happens on the direct POST response rather than a redirect flow so the raw key never has to enter query strings or persistent storage;
- CSRF protection is still not implemented for admin API key forms;
- the client `/api/v1` endpoints still do not use the API key middleware yet; that remains for Agent 06.

## Recommended Next Step

Agent 06 should wire the existing API key middleware into the client `/api/v1` endpoints for accessible project listing, latest release lookup, and authenticated artifact download.

## Notes For Validator

- verify that the post-create response shows persisted saved values immediately, without requiring a manual refresh;
- verify that the raw key appears only on the secret-bearing creation response and not on later `GET /admin/api-keys/{id}` detail loads;
- verify the one-time reveal response includes the anti-cache headers listed above.
