v1.29.0: jump host is core + fix fresh-install setup.sh abort (#125)

Two fresh-install fixes and promote the SSH jump host from opt-in to core.

setup.sh: fix silent abort after "Minting per-app OpenBao tokens". env_get's
grep|cut pipeline returns non-zero under set -euo pipefail when .env exists
(created by the root VAULT_TOKEN env_upsert) but an app-token key is absent
(the normal first-run state); the unguarded existing assignment from env_get
then tripped set -e and killed the script before minting any token. env_get
now always returns 0 (|| true). Reproduced + verified under the exact condition.

jump host is no longer optional:
- docker-compose.yml: drop profiles jump-host from the jump-host service
  (always started); rename the opt-in test fixture profile jump-host to ldap-test.
- setup.sh: SUBMODULES always includes jump-host; build/start/register/summary
  no longer guarded by JUMP_ENABLED; drop the COMPOSE_PROFILES export.
- bootstrap.js: jump provisioning + directory record run unconditionally.
- setup.env.example/docs: drop optional/CFG_JUMP_HOST_ENABLED wording.

+- Registers the proxy as an OIDC client of the SSO.
+- Persists submodule commit hashes in `.env` for reproducibility (e.g., `SSO_GIT_COMMIT`, `PROXY_GIT_COMMIT`). This ensures future `docker compose` runs use the same submodule versions.

+7. **Register `<SSO_HOST>` and `<PROXY_HOST>` as Host records in the proxy** —
+   `setup.sh` runs a short script inside the proxy container that calls its
+   Host model directly (`Host.create({host, ip, targetPort, ...})`), rather
+   than the proxy's own HTTP API, since no authenticated session exists yet at
+   this point in the run. The proxy routes every hostname purely off a Host
+   record (`ops/nginx_conf/proxy.conf` has no default/self route), so without
+   this step neither URL resolves to anything. `<SSO_HOST>` targets
+   `sso-manager:3001` (the Docker service), `<PROXY_HOST>` targets
+   `127.0.0.1:3000` (the proxy's own management app, same container). Both
+   are created with `sso_enabled: false` — each app already gates its own
+   login, and SSO-gating the SSO's own login page would be circular. Skips a
+   host that already exists, so re-running `setup.sh` is a no-op here.
 
 `setup.sh` then prints the first-admin login + the public URLs.
 
 ### How config reaches the apps (no `.env`)
 
 All config and secrets live in `./config/` (gitignored, bind-mounted). Each
-entrypoint symlinks its file to `/app/conf/secrets.js` early, before the app
-starts:
+entrypoint points the `CONF_SECRETS` env var (`@simpleworkjs/conf` >= 1.2.0)
+at its file early, before the app starts:
 
 ```
-./config/sso-secrets.js    ->  sso-manager:/app/conf/secrets.js   (./config RW)
-./config/proxy-secrets.js  ->  proxy:/app/conf/secrets.js         (./config RO)
+CONF_SECRETS=/config/sso-secrets.js    (sso-manager, ./config RW)
+CONF_SECRETS=/config/proxy-secrets.js  (proxy, ./config RO)
 ```
 
-`@simpleworkjs/conf` loads `conf/base.js → <env>.js → conf/secrets.js → app_*
-env`, where **env beats `secrets.js`**. So compose passes **no `app_*` env vars**
-(only `NODE_ENV`, `NODE_PORT`) — that makes `secrets.js` authoritative. The SSO
-entrypoint reads the few values it needs at startup (LDAP base DN, admin
-password, JWT secret, cert CN) from `secrets.js` via an in-container `node` call.

+description: A unified, one-command SSO Manager + OIDC proxy stack for home labs and small businesses. Wires together a self-hosted identity provider and a reverse proxy with one setup.sh.
 ---
 
 # theta-env
 
-A single repo that runs the whole theta42 identity + access stack —
-[SSO Manager](https://github.com/theta42/sso-manager-node) (OIDC provider + LDAP)
-and the [theta42/proxy](https://github.com/theta42/proxy) (OIDC-protected reverse
-proxy) — together, with **one command**, for home labs and small businesses.
+The whole theta42 identity + access stack in one repo, brought up with a
+single command — for home labs and small businesses.
 
-It exists for people whose needs are met by these two projects and who want to
-run them "very simply." Each project still works **standalone**; this repo just
-wires them together and automates the first-run glue.
+It wires together two projects that already work on their own —
+[SSO Manager](https://theta42.github.io/sso-manager-node/) (OIDC provider +
+LDAP directory) and [Proxy](https://theta42.github.io/proxy/) (an
+OIDC-protected reverse proxy that can also look users up directly in LDAP) —
+and automates the fiddly part: registering the proxy as an OIDC client of the
+SSO and pointing it at the right LDAP directory, with hostnames and secrets
+generated from one `setup.env`. A third component, the
+[Jump Host](https://theta42.github.io/jump-host/), adds directory-driven SSH
+access to your machines through one public entry point.

+
+## Why this over running them separately
+
+Each project works standalone, but they only become useful together once the
+proxy is registered as an OIDC client of the SSO *and* pointed at the SSO's
+LDAP directory — and the domain has to match across half a dozen config
+fields, or logins silently fail. Doing that by hand is fiddly. `setup.sh`
+asks for your domain once, generates both apps' config with it filled in
+everywhere, registers the proxy as an OIDC client automatically, and
+snapshots state before every rebuild.
+
+## What you get
+
+- **SSO Manager**, fronted by the proxy under TLS — manage users, groups,
+  and OAuth clients.
+- **Proxy** — add the hosts you want to protect with OIDC login.
+- **LDAPS** for direct binds — Linux hosts (PAM/SSSD, sudo, SSH keys) and
+  LDAP-native apps authenticate against the same directory.
+- **SSH Jump Host** — `ssh uid_-_host@jump.<domain>` (WinSCP-friendly)
+  or an interactive picker; access is driven by directory group membership, with
+  a web UI for audit + metrics.
+- **Self-service API tokens** in both apps' UIs, for scripting/CI without a
+  browser session.
+- **Multi-Site Support (Geo-Location Scaling)** — built-in support for N-Way Multi-Master LDAP replication across physical locations.
+- **Multi-target load balancing** — built-in proxy support for round-robin load balancing across multiple application servers.

+title: Secrets (OpenBao)
+description: theta-env's central secrets architecture — OpenBao as the single store for all app, per-user, and external-app secrets, with scoped tokens and policies.
+---
+
+# Secrets — OpenBao as the central store
+
+theta-env keeps **every secret in one place: [OpenBao](https://openbao.org/)**
+(a Vault-community fork), running on the `theta-net` docker network at
+`http://openbao:8200`. The three apps (SSO Manager, proxy, jump host) load
+their boot secrets from it; end users get personal per-user secret storage
+through the SSO UI; and external apps get scoped, self-contained access to
+their own namespace.
+
+This page is the operator reference. For the package API, see
+[@simpleworkjs/bao-conf](https://simpleworkjs.github.io/bao-conf/).
+
+## Why a central store
+
+Before this, secret handling was partial and inconsistent: only the SSO read
+one path from OpenBao; the proxy and jump host read bind-mounted
+`./config/*-secrets.js` files; the bootstrap wrote generated OAuth creds to
+those files on disk; and the SSO `/api/vault` UI was an ungated, broken
+pass-through. Centralising on OpenBao gives every app the same fail-soft load
+path, makes per-user secret storage possible, and lets external apps get
+least-privilege access without anyone handing them the root token.
+
+## The load path (every app)
+
+1. `@simpleworkjs/conf` **synchronously** loads the bind-mounted
+   `./config/<app>-secrets.js` at require time — the file is the operator-edit
+   layer and the fail-soft fallback.
+2. `@simpleworkjs/bao-conf`'s `init({ path: '<app>', conf })` **deep-merges**
+   `secret/data/<app>/conf` from OpenBao over the live `conf` object. It is
+   **fail-soft**: if OpenBao is unreachable or the path is absent, boot
+   continues with the file-loaded config.
+3. A few secrets are **captured at require time** (notably the OIDC
+   `clientSecret`, consumed inside `createOidcClient` during
+   `require('../models')`). So `init()` must resolve *before* that
+   `require()`. Each app's `bin/www` handles this:
+   - **proxy** — defers `require('../app')` (which transitively loads models)
+     behind `bao-conf.init()`.
+   - **jump host** — gates the explicit `require('../models')` behind
+     `bao-conf.init()`.
+   - **SSO** — swaps the old `conf_manager.init()` call (same position in its
+     existing `.then()` boot chain) for `bao-conf.init()`; nothing in the SSO
+     captures a secret at require time, so no reordering was needed.
+
+`VAULT_TOKEN` (a scoped per-app token, **not** the root token) and
+`VAULT_ADDR=http://openbao:8200` are passed to each container via
+`docker-compose.yml`. The `./config/*-secrets.js` mounts stay as the fallback.
+
+## Policies, token role, and tokens
+
+`setup.sh` creates the ACL policies and mints the per-app tokens
+(idempotently — re-running keeps existing tokens and re-mints only expired
+ones). The root token stays in `.env` for setup/maintenance **only** and is
+never passed to a service container.
+
+| Policy | Capabilities | Held by |
+|---|---|---|
+| `sso-broker` | read/write `secret/sso-manager/conf`, `secret/users/*`, `secret/apps/*`; `update` on `auth/token/create/sso-broker`; `update` on `sys/policies/acl/user-*`, `app-*`, `sso-admin` | SSO (`SSO_VAULT_TOKEN`) |
+| `sso-admin` | read/write/list all of `secret/*` | admin UI sessions (minted by the broker) |
+| `proxy` | read `secret/proxy/conf` | proxy (`PROXY_VAULT_TOKEN`) |
+| `jump-host` | read `secret/jump-host/conf` | jump host (`JUMP_VAULT_TOKEN`) |
+| `user-<uid>` | read/write `secret/users/<uid>/*` | per-user tokens (minted lazily by the broker) |
+| `app-<name>` | read/write `secret/apps/<name>/*` | per-external-app tokens (minted by an admin) |
+
+**Token role `sso-broker`** — `allowed_policies=sso-admin`,
+`allowed_policies_glob=user-*,app-*`, orphan, renewable, `token_period=24h`.
+The SSO mints per-user, per-admin, and per-app tokens *through* this role at
+runtime, so it never needs the root token to issue scoped access.
+
+The three per-app tokens (`SSO_VAULT_TOKEN`, `PROXY_VAULT_TOKEN`,
+`JUMP_VAULT_TOKEN`) are minted orphan + renewable and stored in `./.env` by
+`setup.sh`. They use OpenBao's default service-token TTL; if one expires,
+re-run `./setup.sh` and the `ensure_token` helper re-mints it (the old one
+expires on its own). Automated renewal is a planned follow-up, not yet built.
+
+## Seeding
+
+`setup.sh` seeds, on first run only (skipped if the path already exists):
+
+- `secret/sso-manager/conf` — from `./config/sso-secrets.js` (operator-set
+  LDAP/SMTP/`jwtSecret`; the SSO has no bootstrap-generated creds, so the file
+  is the complete source of truth).
+- `secret/proxy/conf` — from `./config/proxy-secrets.js` (placeholder OAuth
+  creds at this point).
+- `secret/jump-host/conf` — from `./config/jump-secrets.js` after the bootstrap
+  writes it.
+
+The **bootstrap** (`bootstrap/bootstrap.js`) then generates the real OAuth
+client credentials and writes the *complete* `proxy-secrets.js` and
+`jump-secrets.js` objects into `secret/proxy/conf` and `secret/jump-host/conf`
+(POST, replacing the placeholder seed). After the first run, OpenBao is
+authoritative; the `./config/*-secrets.js` files are operator-edit seed
+artifacts and the fail-soft fallback.
+
+## End-user personal secrets
+
+Every logged-in user has a personal namespace `secret/users/<uid>/*`, reached
+through the SSO UI at **Vault → My Secrets**. The SSO mints a `user-<uid>`
+token on first access (cached in Redis for the token's lifetime) and proxies
+`/api/vault` to OpenBao with **that** token injected server-side — the
+client's SSO session token never reaches OpenBao.
+
+- **Non-admins** see only their own namespace; the UI fixes the path prefix
+  to `users/<uid>/`. They can list, read, write, and delete secrets there.
+- **Admins** (`app_sso_admin` / `app_super_admin`) get free-form access across
+  all of `secret/` plus an **Apps** tab (see below).
+
+Scoping is enforced at **two** layers: the SSO's `scopeGuard` rejects any path
+outside the subject's prefix with a 403 (defense-in-depth), and the token's
+own OpenBao policy enforces the same at the API layer.
+
+## External apps
+
+An external (non-theta42) app gets scoped access to its own namespace,
+`secret/apps/<name>/*`, via a token an admin mints once from the SSO UI's
+**Vault → Apps** tab. The token is shown **once** (copy it immediately; it is
+not stored retrievably) and confined by an `app-<name>` policy.
+
+Convention:
+
+- `secret/apps/<name>/conf` for config-style secrets, `secret/apps/<name>/*`
+  for arbitrary keys.
+- The app authenticates with the header `X-Vault-Token: <minted token>`
+  against `http://<openbao-host>:8200/v1/secret/data/apps/<name>/...`.
+
+Non-Node consumers (curl):
+
+```bash
+VAULT_ADDR=http://openbao:8200   # or your external-facing openbao address
+# Write
+curl -X POST "$VAULT_ADDR/v1/secret/data/apps/my-service/conf" \
+  -H "X-Vault-Token: <token>" -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
+  -d '{"data":{"db_password":"..."}}'
+# Read
+curl -s "$VAULT_ADDR/v1/secret/data/apps/my-service/conf" \
+  -H "X-Vault-Token: <token>" | jq .data.data
+```
+
+Node consumers can use [@simpleworkjs/bao-conf](https://simpleworkjs.github.io/bao-conf/)
+directly:
+
+```js
+const baoConf = require('@simpleworkjs/bao-conf');
+const data = await baoConf.get('apps/my-service/conf'); // secret/data/apps/my-service/conf
+await baoConf.set('apps/my-service/conf', { db_password: '...' });
+```
+
+## Operator rotation
+
+If a secret is exposed (or just on a routine schedule), rotate it at the
+**provider** first (the LDAP server, the SMTP host, the OAuth `jwtSecret`,
+etc.), then update OpenBao:
+
+```bash
+# Read the current sso-manager conf
+docker exec -e BAO_TOKEN="$VAULT_TOKEN" openbao bao kv get secret/sso-manager/conf
+# Write a new value (KV-v2 POST replaces the data; merge carefully)
+docker exec -e BAO_TOKEN="$VAULT_TOKEN" openbao bao kv put secret/sso-manager/conf \
+  ldap.bindPassword='<new>' smtp.password='<new>' oauth.jwtSecret='<new>'
+```
+
+Then restart the affected app so `bao-conf.init()` re-reads it
+(`docker compose restart sso-manager`). Call-time readers pick up the change
+on next read; require-time captures (OIDC `clientSecret`) need the restart.
+
+> The SSO admin **Configuration** UI (`/api/conf`) writes `secret/sso-manager/conf`
+> and updates the live conf immediately, so SMTP/discovery/oauth edits made
+> there don't need a manual `bao kv put`.
+
+## Backups
+
+The OpenBao data volume `openbao-data` holds every secret. Back it up with the
+rest of the stack (see the README's *Backups and restore* section). The
+`./config/*-secrets.js` files are **not** a complete secret backup once OpenBao
+is authoritative — they're the first-run seed and the fallback. A full disaster
+recovery restores both the `openbao-data` volume (the authoritative store) and
+`./config/` (the seed/fallback), then runs `./setup.sh` to unseal OpenBao and
+re-mint the per-app tokens.
+
+## What's not in scope yet
+
+- **Renewal automation** — per-app/user tokens use OpenBao's default TTL and
+  are re-minted by `setup.sh` on expiry; a periodic renewal worker is a
+  follow-up.
+- **History scrubbing** — if a secret was committed to git, rotating it is the
+  fix; scrubbing it from git history (BFG / `git filter-repo`) is a separate,
+  git-destructive operation you can opt into.
+- **Per-app secrets beyond boot config** (e.g. the proxy's DNS-provider creds,
+  the jump host's per-user LDAP SSH keys) moving into OpenBao — only the
+  boot-critical `*-secrets.js` contents moved in this phase.
