+## [v1.31.0] - 2026-08-01
+
+Roll-up release: bumps the composed submodules to their latest tags so a fresh
+`git clone` + `./setup.sh` deploys the SSO Manager plugin system, the `/conf`
+SMTP/OAuth secret masking, and the ldap-client changelog. `proxy` (v1.13.1) and
+`jump-host` (v1.14.1) were already at latest and are unchanged.
+
+### Changed (submodule gitlinks)
+- **sso-manager-node**: `v1.16.1` → `v1.17.1` (the plugin system shipped in
+  v1.17.0, plus the v1.17.1 `/conf` secret-masking hardening).
+- **ldap-client**: `v1.1.1` → `v1.23.0` — a CHANGELOG-only release (the new
+  `CHANGELOG.md` documenting v1.1.0/v1.0.0; **no code change** — the "UI polish"
+  tag message is misleading, the v1.1.1…v1.23.0 diff is `CHANGELOG.md` only).
+
+### Deploy
+Operators upgrading from a prior release:
+1. `git pull` and `git submodule update --init --recursive` (or a fresh clone).
+2. Re-run `./setup.sh` — this is **required** if you haven't yet applied the
+   v1.30.1 `sso-broker` OpenBao policy grant for `secret/plugins/*` (idempotent;
+   it grants the existing `SSO_VAULT_TOKEN` access live, so plugin-secrets
+   storage works).
+3. `docker compose build && docker compose up -d`. Existing
+   `conf.discovery.plugins` setups auto-migrate into `PluginInstance` rows +
+   OpenBao secrets on first boot of sso v1.17.x.
+
+### Bundled submodule release notes
+
+#### sso-manager-node v1.17.0 — real plugin system (loadable instances + OpenBao secrets)
+
+## [1.17.0] - 2026-08-01
+
+A real **plugin system**: the half-built discovery plugins (statically
+configured in `sso-secrets.js`, only toggleable for cron/enabled) become
+**configurable, loadable/unloadable plugin instances** you manage from a
+dedicated **Plugins** page and the `/api/plugins` API, with multiple runtime
+copies of each type and per-instance secrets stored in OpenBao.
+
+### Added
+- **Plugin instances** — a new `PluginInstance` ORM model
+  (`nodejs/models/plugin_instance.js`, Sequelize) is the registry of
+  configured, scheduled plugin copies. Each has a `pluginType`, a unique
+  `slug` (the discovery source name), a cron schedule, an `enabled` flag
+  (load/unload), non-secret `config` (JSON), and last-run bookkeeping. Multiple
+  instances of the same type are supported.
+- **Plugin registry** (`nodejs/services/plugin_registry.js`) — generalizes the
+  one-shot discovery-plugin scan in `scheduler.js`. Plugin types are modules
+  under `nodejs/plugins/<category>/<type>.js` exporting a manifest
+  (`type`, `category`, `name`, `description`, `configSchema`, `validate`,
+  `run`/`discover`). Exposes `getTypes`, `getModule`, `splitConfig` (secret vs
+  non-secret), `mask`, and required-field helpers for the UI/API.
+- **Per-instance secrets in OpenBao** (`nodejs/utils/plugin_secrets.js`) —
+  `configSchema` fields flagged `secret:true` (e.g. a Proxmox `tokenSecret`,
+  UniFi `password`) are stored at `secret/plugins/<instance-id>/conf`, never in
+  the DB. The UI only ever sees masked (`********`) values. Plugins run
+  in-process (BullMQ workers), so they need no OpenBao token of their own — the
+  SSO reads/writes via the `sso-broker` token. **Requires theta-suite ≥ v1.30.1**
+  for the `sso-broker` policy grant on `secret/plugins/*`; the API fails-soft
+  with a clear error if absent.
+- **`/api/plugins` API** (`nodejs/routes/api_plugins.js`, replaces the old
+  `routes/plugins.js`) — `GET /types`, list/get/create/update/update-secrets/
+  test/load/unload/run/delete/runs. Admin-only
+  (`app_sso_admin` / `app_sso_directory_admin` / `app_super_admin`).
+- **Plugins page** (`/plugins`, `views/plugins.ejs`) + nav entry — instance
+  table with New/Edit/Edit-Secrets/Test/Run-now/Load/Unload/Delete, config forms
+  rendered from each type's `configSchema`.
+- **`validate`** ("Test" button) on the built-in Proxmox/UniFi/Nmap plugins.
+
+### Changed
+- `services/scheduler.js` now schedules from the `PluginInstance` table instead
+  of static `conf.discovery.plugins` + a Redis override hash. Each instance owns
+  a stable BullMQ JobScheduler id (`plugin:<instanceId>`) so load/unload
+  upsert/remove one schedule without disturbing the rest. Discovery plugins
+  reconcile results under the instance's `slug`.
+- The three discovery plugins (`plugins/discovery/{proxmox,unifi,nmap}.js`)
+  gained manifests (`configSchema`, `validate`, `run` alias). `nmap`'s
+  `targetRange` is non-secret; Proxmox `tokenSecret` and UniFi `password` are
+  secret.
+- The `/plugins` page route renders the page instead of redirecting to
+  `/directory`; the **Agents & Scheduler** tab was removed from `/directory`
+  (plugins are now managed on the Plugins page). The `/docs/agents` link is
+  aliased to `/docs/plugins`.
+- `docs/plugins.md`, `docs/vault.md`, `docs/_config.yml` (nav), and `API.md`
+  (Plugin Endpoints section) document the new system.
+
+### Legacy migration
+On first boot of v1.17.0, if the `PluginInstance` table is empty **and**
+`conf.discovery.plugins` has entries, one instance per configured type is seeded
+automatically (secret fields copied into OpenBao). After that the static
+config is ignored — manage plugins from the UI/API. Idempotent (guarded by the
+empty-table check).
+
+### Prerequisite
+**theta-suite ≥ v1.30.1** — re-run `./setup.sh` after upgrading so the
+`sso-broker` OpenBao policy is granted `secret/plugins/*`. Without it, storing
+plugin secrets fails with a clear error.
+
+
+#### sso-manager-node v1.17.1 — mask SMTP/OAuth secrets + leave-blank-to-keep on /conf
+
+## [1.17.1] - 2026-08-01
+
+Hardens the **runtime SMTP/OAuth secret handling** on the `/conf` admin page to
+match the plugin-secrets discipline: the SMTP password and OAuth JWT secret are
+no longer returned in cleartext by `GET /api/conf` or round-tripped through the
+form. They remain saved in OpenBao at `secret/sso-manager/conf` at runtime
+(unchanged) — only how they're surfaced to the admin changes.
+
+### Changed
+- **`GET /api/conf`** now masks `smtp.pass` and `oauth.jwtSecret` to `********`
+  (was: returned in cleartext). Non-secret fields (host, port, user, from,
+  secure, issuer, token lifetimes) are returned as before.
+- **`POST /api/conf`** now treats a blank or `********` secret-field submission
+  as "keep the current stored value" — so an admin editing the From address or
+  token lifetimes no longer has to re-enter (or leak) the SMTP password / JWT
+  secret. Only a genuinely new, non-blank value overwrites. The preserved values
+  are re-applied to live `conf` immediately, as before.
+- **`/conf` page** (`views/conf.ejs`): the Password and JWT Secret fields carry
+  a "leave unchanged to keep the current value stored in OpenBao" hint; the page
+  copy notes secret fields are masked. No JSON-textarea editing is involved —
+  SMTP is and remains configured through structured form fields.
+
+### Notes
+- SMTP (and OAuth) config was **already** saved to OpenBao at runtime before
+  this release (via `POST /api/conf` → `baoConf.set('sso-manager/conf')`, and
+  overlaid back at boot by `bao-conf.init`). This release closes the
+  cleartext-exposure gap; it does not move the storage path.
+- No theta-suite policy change required — `secret/sso-manager/conf` was already
+  granted to the `sso-broker` policy.
+
+
+#### ldap-client v1.23.0 — CHANGELOG-only (no code change)
+
+Adds a `CHANGELOG.md` documenting v1.1.0 (`app_super_admin` / `app_jump_admin`
+group support in SSSD access filters; the sso/jump-host TLS-validation
+divergence) and v1.0.0 (initial SSSD LDAP auth release). No source changes vs
+v1.1.1; the v1.23.0 tag commit only adds this file.
+
+## [v1.30.1] - 2026-08-01
+
+Prerequisite release for the SSO Manager plugin system (shipped in
+sso-manager-node v1.17.0). Grants the `sso-broker` OpenBao policy access to the
+new per-instance plugin secrets namespace so the SSO can store plugin secrets in
+OpenBao instead of `sso-secrets.js`.
+
+### Changed (theta-suite orchestration)
+- **`setup.sh`**: added `secret/data/plugins/*` (CRUD+list) and
+  `secret/metadata/plugins/*` (list/read/delete) to the `sso-broker` policy
+  HCL. `ensure_policy sso-broker` is idempotent, so re-running `./setup.sh`
+  immediately grants the existing `SSO_VAULT_TOKEN` access to `secret/plugins/*`
+  (policies are evaluated live; the token keeps its id). The SSO side fails-soft
+  with a clear error if this grant is absent.
+- **Docs**: `docs/secrets.md` (new "Plugin secrets" section + `sso-broker`
+  policy row) and `docs/architecture.md` (sso-manager access row) now list
+  `secret/plugins/*`.
+
+> The plugin system itself (configurable plugin instances, load/unload, UI/API,
+> multi-copy, secrets in OpenBao) is in sso-manager-node v1.17.0; theta-suite
+> will bump its submodule gitlink to that release next.
+
+## [v1.30.0] - 2026-08-01
+
+The project is renamed **theta-env → theta-suite** — it has grown from a
+docker-compose wiring two projects into an integrated suite of four
+applications around a shared OpenBao secrets store, and the name should reflect
+that. The GitHub repository is renamed `theta42/theta-env` →
+`theta42/theta-suite` (old URLs redirect), and the docs site moves to
+`https://theta42.github.io/theta-suite/`.
+
+### Changed (theta-suite orchestration)
+- **Renamed theta-env → theta-suite** across the superproject: `docs/_config.yml`
+  (`title` + `baseurl: /theta-suite` + repo URLs), `README.md`, `setup.sh`
+  (incl. the `THETA_SUITE_REEXECED` self-update sentinel), `docker-compose.yml`,
+  `bootstrap/bootstrap.js`, `.github/workflows/lint.yml`, `config.example/*`,
+  `docs/robots.txt`, all docs pages, and this changelog.
+- **Compose project name note:** docker compose derives the project name from
+  the clone directory, so named volumes follow it (`<project>_openbao-data`).
+  A fresh `git clone` of `theta-suite` uses the `theta-suite` project name; an
+  existing deployment that keeps its `theta-env` directory keeps its
+  `theta-env_*` volumes — no data migration is required, just don't mix the two.
+- **Docs site baseurl** is now `/theta-suite`, matching the renamed repo's
+  GitHub Pages URL.
+
+### Docs
+- **`architecture.md` rewritten.** Replaced the outdated "The two containers"
+  / "The three repos" framing with the actual topology — four always-on
+  services (`openbao`, `sso-manager`, `proxy`, `jump-host`) plus the
+  `ldap-client` host-enrollment tool — a real diagram, a full **Secrets
+  (OpenBao)** section (central store, scoped per-app policies/tokens, the
+  `@simpleworkjs/bao-conf` boot overlay, per-user KV, external-app minting),
+  and an OpenBao-aware "how config reaches the apps". Removed the
+  LDAP-"legacy apps" wording (direct LDAP binds are first-class: Linux hosts
+  PAM/SSSD, sudo, SSH keys).
+- **`index.md`** — integrated-suite framing; added **Central secrets (OpenBao)**
+  and **ldap-client** to "What you get" and "Related projects".
+- **`standalone.md` + `README.md`** — standalone is now framed as an advanced
+  opt-in; the integrated `./setup.sh` stack is the supported path.
+
+### Submodule bump
+- **sso-manager-node → v1.16.1** — fixes the **401 on `/conf` and `/vault`** for
+  a logged-in admin. Both view routes 401'd because this app's auth-token is a
+  header set by client JS (localStorage), not a cookie, so `req.user` is
+  undefined on a browser navigation; the routes now render the shell and gate
+  client-side (`app.auth.forceLogin`), with `/api/conf` + `/api/vault` still
+  enforcing auth + OpenBao scope server-side. See the
+  [sso v1.16.1 release](https://github.com/theta42/sso-manager-node/releases/tag/v1.16.1).
+
+## [v1.29.0] - 2026-08-01
+
+Two fixes for a fresh `./setup.sh` install, plus the SSH jump host promoted
+from an opt-in component to a core part of the stack.
+
+### Fixed (theta-suite orchestration)
+- **`setup.sh`** — fresh installs aborted silently right after `Minting
+  per-app OpenBao tokens`. The `env_get` helper's `grep | cut` pipeline returns
+  non-zero under `set -euo pipefail` when `.env` exists (it's created earlier
+  by the root-`VAULT_TOKEN` `env_upsert`) but a given app-token key is absent —
+  the normal first-run state. The unguarded `existing="$(env_get ...)"` then
+  tripped `set -e` and killed the script before any token was minted. `env_get`
+  now always returns 0 (`|| true`), so "key absent" resolves to empty and the
+  run continues through token minting, the SSO/proxy bring-up, and the jump
+  host. Reproduced + verified the fix under the exact fresh-install condition.
+- **`setup.sh`** — `JUMP_VAULT_TOKEN` is now always minted (jump host is core;
+  the mint was already unconditional, this just documents it).
+
+### Changed (theta-suite orchestration)
+- **jump host is no longer optional** — it is built + started on every run,
+  with no `CFG_JUMP_HOST_ENABLED` flag.
+  - `docker-compose.yml`: removed `profiles: ["jump-host"]` from the
+    `jump-host` service so `docker compose up` includes it unconditionally.
+    The test-only `ldap-test-host` downstream fixture keeps an opt-in profile,
+    renamed `jump-host` → `ldap-test` (`docker compose --profile ldap-test up`).
+  - `setup.sh`: `SUBMODULES` always includes `jump-host`; the build/start +
+    host-register + summary lines for the jump host are no longer wrapped in a
+    `JUMP_ENABLED` guard; the `COMPOSE_PROFILES` export is gone.
+  - `bootstrap/bootstrap.js`: jump-host provisioning (mint API token + write
+    `jump-secrets.js` + mirror into OpenBao) and its directory service record
+    now run unconditionally — no `CFG_JUMP_HOST_ENABLED` gate.
+  - `setup.env.example` / `docs/index.md` / `docs/quickstart.md`: dropped the
+    "optional / enable with `CFG_JUMP_HOST_ENABLED=true`" wording; the
+    `CFG_JUMP_HOST` hostname override + `JUMP_SSH_PORT` remain.
+
+## [v1.28.0] - 2026-08-01
+
+OpenBao becomes the central secrets store for the whole stack. Every app now
+loads its secrets from OpenBao at boot via the new
+[`@simpleworkjs/bao-conf`](https://simpleworkjs.github.io/bao-conf/) package;
+end users get personal per-user secret storage through the SSO UI; external
+apps get scoped `secret/apps/<app>/*` access. `setup.sh` mints the policies
+and scoped tokens, `bootstrap.js` writes generated creds into OpenBao, and a
+new `docs/secrets.md` documents the architecture.
+
+### Changed (theta-suite orchestration)
+- **`setup.sh`** — after the KV-v2 enable, a new idempotent block writes four
+  OpenBao policies (`sso-broker`, `sso-admin`, `proxy`, `jump-host`) via
+  heredocs, a `sso-broker` token role (`allowed_policies_glob` `user-*`/`app-*`,
+  24h period), and mints scoped `SSO_VAULT_TOKEN` / `PROXY_VAULT_TOKEN` /
+  `JUMP_VAULT_TOKEN` (orphan, renewable, reused from `setup.env` if still
+  valid). `seed_app_conf` seeds `secret/{sso-manager,proxy,jump-host}/conf`
+  from the operator-edit `/config/*-secrets.js` files on first run. The
+  bootstrap exec now passes the root `VAULT_ADDR`/`VAULT_TOKEN` for seeding.
+  The root token stays in `setup.env` for maintenance only — it is never passed
+  to a service container. `bash -n` + `shellcheck` clean.
+- **`docker-compose.yml`** — `sso-manager`/`proxy`/`jump-host` get
+  `VAULT_ADDR=http://openbao:8200` and `VAULT_TOKEN=${SSO|PROXY|JUMP}_VAULT_TOKEN:-`;
+  `proxy`/`jump-host` gain `depends_on: openbao: service_started`. compose
+  config valid.
+- **`bootstrap/bootstrap.js`** — `baoPut()` writes the generated OAuth client
+  creds to `secret/proxy/conf` and `secret/jump-host/conf` (POST replaces; the
+  full file object), so OpenBao — not the on-disk `/config/*-secrets.js` — is
+  authoritative after first boot. Fail-soft. `node --check` clean.
+- **`docs/secrets.md`** (new) — the full secrets architecture: load path,
+  policy/token table, the `sso-broker` role, seeding, end-user personal
+  secrets, external-app convention (curl + Node `bao-conf` examples), operator
+  rotation, backups. Linked from the README and the docs nav (`_config.yml`).
+- **README** — Configuration section rewritten (OpenBao authoritative, link to
+  `docs/secrets.md`); Secrets-backup section adds the `openbao-data` volume.
+
+### Submodule bumps
+- `sso-manager-node` → **v1.16.0** (was v1.15.2-era).
+- `proxy` → **v1.13.1** (was v1.12.1; passes through v1.13.0).
+- `jump-host` → **v1.14.1** (was v1.11.0-era; passes through v1.14.0).
+- `ldap-client` unchanged (v1.1.1).
+
+#### sso-manager-node — [v1.16.0](https://github.com/theta42/sso-manager-node/releases/tag/v1.16.0)
+
+OpenBao becomes the central secrets store for the theta42 stack, and the SSO
+Manager becomes its broker. This is the SSO's half of the move: it loads its
+own secrets from OpenBao, mints scoped tokens for users and external apps,
+and exposes a fixed, role-scoped personal-secrets UI.
+
+##### Changed
+- **Secrets now load from OpenBao at boot** via
+  [@simpleworkjs/bao-conf](https://simpleworkjs.github.io/bao-conf/), which
+  deep-merges `secret/sso-manager/conf` over the file-loaded config
+  (replacing the old `utils/conf_manager.js`, which did a shallow-per-key
+  merge). `bin/www` runs `bao-conf.init()` after `models.initORM()` and
+  before `listen`. Fail-soft: if OpenBao is unreachable, boot continues from
+  `CONF_SECRETS`. The SSO authenticates with a scoped `VAULT_TOKEN` (policy
+  `sso-broker`), never the root token. The admin **Configuration** UI
+  (`/api/conf`) now writes through `bao-conf.set('sso-manager', …)`.
+- **`/api/vault` proxy reworked** — the old endpoint was an ungated
+  pass-through that never injected an `X-Vault-Token` (so the UI was both
+  ungated *and* broken). It is now `middleware.auth` → `scopeGuard` → a
+  token-injecting proxy. `scopeGuard` resolves a per-user (`user-<uid>`) or
+  per-admin (`sso-admin`) token via the new `utils/vault_broker.js`
+  (Redis-cached, minted through the `sso-broker` token role) and enforces a
+  path prefix as a second layer on top of the OpenBao policy. The client
+  `auth-token` is stripped; only the server-minted token reaches OpenBao.
+- **Vault UI reworked and renamed** (`views/vaultwarden.ejs` →
+  `views/vault.ejs`; the `/vault` route is now `middleware.auth`-gated).
+  Non-admin users see only their `secret/users/<uid>/` namespace; admins get
+  free-form path entry across `secret/` plus an **Apps** tab to mint scoped
+  tokens for external apps (`secret/apps/<name>/*`, shown once with copy +
+  `curl` convention).
+- Bumped package version to track the release tag.
+
+##### Removed
+- `nodejs/utils/conf_manager.js` (replaced by `@simpleworkjs/bao-conf`).
+- `nodejs/views/vaultwarden.ejs` (renamed `vault.ejs`).
+
+##### Security
+- **Committed-secrets remediation.** `config/sso-secrets.js` (LDAP bind
+  password, SMTP, `oauth.jwtSecret`) and `nodejs/test_plugins.js` (a
+  hardcoded Proxmox root API token and a UniFi password) were tracked on
+  master. They are now untracked + gitignored (`config/*-secrets.js`), and
+  `test_plugins.js` is deleted; `config/proxy-secrets.js.example` added as a
+  placeholder template. **The secrets remain in git history — rotation at
+  the providers is the real remediation and is the operator's to perform.**
+  OpenBao is now the authoritative store; the local files are seed artifacts
+  only.
+
+> Note: sso releases v1.12.0–v1.15.2 were tagged from merge PRs without
+> corresponding `CHANGELOG.md` entries or GitHub releases; v1.16.0 resumes
+> the changelog.
+
+#### proxy — [v1.13.1](https://github.com/theta42/proxy/releases/tag/v1.13.1) (via [v1.13.0](https://github.com/theta42/proxy/releases/tag/v1.13.0))
+
+##### v1.13.1 — Fixed
+- **Bumped `@simpleworkjs/bao-conf` to 1.0.1** so standalone/no-OpenBao boots
+  don't crash. bao-conf 1.0.0's `init()` threw when `VAULT_TOKEN` was unset,
+  which — combined with `bin/www`'s `.catch(() => process.exit(1))` — made the
+  proxy exit at boot in any deployment without an OpenBao sidecar (standalone
+  Docker, bare metal). 1.0.1 makes `init()` fail-soft on a missing token (warn
+  + continue from `CONF_SECRETS`), matching the documented contract. The
+  theta-suite stack is unaffected (it always sets a scoped `VAULT_TOKEN`).
+
+##### v1.13.0 — Changed
+- **Secrets now load from OpenBao at boot** via
+  [@simpleworkjs/bao-conf](https://simpleworkjs.github.io/bao-conf/), which
+  deep-merges `secret/proxy/conf` over the file-loaded config. The proxy
+  authenticates to OpenBao with a scoped `VAULT_TOKEN` (policy `proxy` —
+  read-only on its own path), never the root token. Because the OIDC
+  `clientSecret` is captured at require time inside `createOidcClient` (during
+  `require('../models')`, which `require('../app')` triggers transitively),
+  `bin/www` now defers `require('../app')` until after `bao-conf.init()`
+  resolves. Fail-soft: if OpenBao is unreachable, boot continues from
+  `CONF_SECRETS`. The `config/proxy-secrets.js` file is now an operator-edit
+  seed artifact (gitignored); OpenBao is authoritative.
+- Bumped package version to track the release tag.

-fork or patch them — both projects work unchanged on their own.
+theta-suite is a **composition** repo: it builds four applications from their

 |------|------|
 | [`theta42/sso-manager-node`](https://github.com/theta42/sso-manager-node) | OIDC provider + OpenLDAP directory + web UI. All-in-one image (`Dockerfile.openldap`). |
 | [`theta42/proxy`](https://github.com/theta42/proxy) | OIDC-protected reverse proxy (OpenResty + Node mgmt app + Redis). All-in-one image (`Dockerfile`). |
-| `theta42/theta-env` (this repo) | Composes the two on one Docker network + automates first-run wiring. |
+| [`theta42/jump-host`](https://github.com/theta42/jump-host) | Directory-driven SSH jump host (sshd + Node web UI). Image (`Dockerfile`). |
+| [`theta42/ldap-client`](https://github.com/theta42/ldap-client) | Enrolls real Linux hosts into the directory (SSSD + AuthorizedKeysCommand). Also the opt-in `ldap-test-host` fixture. |
+| `quay.io/openbao/openbao` | Central secrets store (Vault fork), KV-v2 at `secret/`. |
+| `theta42/theta-suite` (this repo) | Composes all of the above on one network + automates first-run wiring. |

+## Secrets (OpenBao)
+
+Every component loads its secrets from one OpenBao instance at boot, not
+from scattered config files. OpenBao runs as the `openbao` container
+(`http://openbao:8200` on theta-net, KV-v2 at `secret/`); each app gets a
+**scoped token** (never the root token) whose OpenBao policy confines it to
+the paths it needs:
+
+| Service | env var | Policy | Access |
+|---------|---------|--------|--------|
+| sso-manager | `SSO_VAULT_TOKEN` | `sso-broker` | `secret/sso-manager/conf`, `secret/users/*`, `secret/apps/*`, `secret/plugins/*`; also mints per-user + per-app tokens |
+| proxy | `PROXY_VAULT_TOKEN` | `proxy` | `secret/proxy/conf` (read) |
+| jump-host | `JUMP_VAULT_TOKEN` | `jump-host` | `secret/jump-host/conf` (read) |
+
+At boot each app calls `@simpleworkjs/bao-conf`'s `init()`, which deep-merges
+its OpenBao path over the file-loaded `@simpleworkjs/conf` object — so OpenBao
+is authoritative at runtime, with the `./config/*-secrets.js` file kept only as
+an operator-edited seed and a fail-soft fallback (`init()` is fail-soft, so the
+app still boots from the file if OpenBao is unreachable). The proxy and
+jump-host consume `conf.oidc.clientSecret` at `require` time, so `init()`
+runs *before* their models load (see each app's `bin/www`).
+
+Beyond app config, OpenBao holds:
+
+- **Per-user secret storage** — `secret/users/<uid>/*`, browsed and edited in
+  the SSO UI's **My Secrets** page. Each user is confined to their own
+  namespace by a `user-<uid>` policy; admins see all of `secret/`.
+- **External-app tokens** — an admin mints a scoped `app-<name>` token
+  (confined to `secret/apps/<name>/*`) from the SSO UI's **Apps** tab, so an
+  external app can read its own secrets over the OpenBao HTTP API.
+
+`setup.sh` creates the policies + a `sso-broker` token role and mints the
+per-app tokens on first run; the root token stays in `setup.env` for
+seeding/maintenance only and is never passed to a service container. Full
+details — the policy model, the `secret/apps/<app>/conf` convention, `curl`
+ Node examples, and the operator rotation procedure — are in

+description: theta-suite'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-suite 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/*`, `secret/plugins/*`; `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: '...' });
+```
+
+## Plugin secrets
+
+The SSO Manager's plugin system (configurable plugin instances you create,
+edit, load/unload, and run from the **Plugins** page) stores each instance's
+secrets in its own OpenBao namespace, `secret/plugins/<instance-id>/conf`,
+rather than in the static `sso-secrets.js` `discovery.plugins` block. The
+SSO reads and writes these server-side through the `sso-broker` token (the
+plugin runs in-process as a BullMQ worker, so it needs no token of its own),
+and the admin UI only ever sees masked (`********`) values.
+
+- A **plugin type** is a module under `nodejs/plugins/<category>/<type>.js`
+  exporting a manifest (`configSchema` declares which fields are `secret`).
+- A **plugin instance** is a configured, loadable/unloadable copy of a type,
+  tracked in the `PluginInstance` table; you can have multiple instances of the
+  same type (e.g. two Proxmox endpoints with their own tokens).
+- Non-secret config lives in the DB row; only the `secret:true` field values
+  live in `secret/plugins/<instance-id>/conf`.
+
+Deleting an instance removes both the DB row and its `secret/plugins/<id>/*`
+namespace. Legacy `discovery.plugins` entries in `sso-secrets.js` are migrated
+to instances automatically on the first boot of SSO Manager ≥ v1.17.0 (the
+secret fields are copied into OpenBao at that point). See the SSO Manager
+[plugins docs](https://theta42.github.io/sso-manager-node/plugins.html) for the
+UI/API reference.
+
+## 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. (Plugin instance
+  secrets *are* in OpenBao, at `secret/plugins/<id>/conf` — see above.)

wmantly	aa01a5cc07	release: bump submodules to latest tags (v1.31.0) sso-manager-node v1.16.1 -> v1.17.1 (plugin system v1.17.0 + /conf secret masking v1.17.1). ldap-client v1.1.1 -> v1.23.0 (CHANGELOG-only, no code change). proxy v1.13.1 + jump-host v1.14.1 already latest, unchanged. Changelog embeds the full sso v1.17.0 + v1.17.1 release notes. Co-Authored-By: Claude <noreply@anthropic.com>	2026-08-01 21:26:13 -04:00

wmantly	403e66556c	feat: grant sso-broker OpenBao access to secret/plugins/* (v1.30.1) Prerequisite for the SSO Manager plugin system (shipped in sso-manager-node v1.17.0). Adds secret/data/plugins/* (CRUD+list) + secret/metadata/plugins/* (list/read/delete) to the sso-broker policy HCL so the SSO can store per-instance plugin secrets in OpenBao instead of sso-secrets.js. ensure_policy is idempotent, so re-running ./setup.sh grants the existing SSO_VAULT_TOKEN live.

wmantly	3287777b9b	v1.30.0: rename theta-env -> theta-suite + docs rewrite + sso v1.16.1 (#126 ) Rename the project to theta-suite (it is now an integrated suite of four apps around a shared OpenBao secrets store, not a two-project env). - theta-env -> theta-suite across the superproject: _config.yml (title + baseurl /theta-suite + repo URLs), README, setup.sh (incl. the THETA_SUITE_REEXECED self-update sentinel), docker-compose.yml, bootstrap.js, lint.yml, config.example/*, docs/robots.txt, all docs, this changelog. - architecture.md rewritten: real 4-service + ldap-client topology, OpenBao secrets section, OpenBao-aware config flow; removed "two containers" / "three repos" / LDAP-"legacy" framing. - index.md: integrated-suite framing + secrets/OpenBao + ldap-client. - standalone.md + README: standalone reframed as advanced opt-in. - sso-manager-node submodule -> v1.16.1 (401 fix on /conf and /vault).

wmantly	5ef3e3fa8c	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.

wmantly	f7df04c2f0	v1.28.0: OpenBao as the central secrets store for the stack theta-env orchestration: - setup.sh: idempotent OpenBao policies (sso-broker, sso-admin, proxy, jump-host), sso-broker token role (allowed_policies_glob user-/app-, 24h), mint scoped SSO/PROXY/JUMP_VAULT_TOKEN (orphan, .env reuse), seed_app_conf seeds secret/{sso-manager,proxy,jump-host}/conf. Bootstrap exec passes root VAULT_ADDR/VAULT_TOKEN for seeding. Root token never reaches a service container. shellcheck -S warning clean. - docker-compose.yml: VAULT_ADDR + VAULT_TOKEN env for sso/proxy/jump; proxy/jump depends_on openbao service_started. - bootstrap/bootstrap.js: baoPut() writes generated OAuth creds to secret/proxy/conf + secret/jump-host/conf (OpenBao authoritative). - docs/secrets.md (new): full secrets architecture. README + nav updated. Submodule bumps: - sso-manager-node -> v1.16.0 (OpenBao broker + vault UI + remediation) - proxy -> v1.13.1 (via v1.13.0: OpenBao boot) - jump-host -> v1.14.1 (via v1.14.0: OpenBao boot) - ldap-client unchanged Co-Authored-By: Claude <noreply@anthropic.com>	2026-08-01 12:54:56 -04:00
