22
  - Device login is for KV-scoped manifests. Every scoped login (device, browser, paste) adds `tinycloud.capabilities/read` on the space root (`""`) when the manifest lacks it: OpenKey requires it to sign any delegation and shows it as required. The CLI refuses `tinycloud.encryption` and the `secrets` space before a device request (`DEVICE_AUTH_UNSUPPORTED_SCOPE`); OpenKey also refuses `tinycloud.sql` and other excluded abilities with `SCOPE_REJECTED`. Request those through [browser or paste login with a manifest](#browser-login-with-a-manifest). Device login cannot grant secret reads.
23
23
  - `--expiry` sets the session lifetime as a duration counted from approval (`1h`, `7d`, or milliseconds; at least `1m`; device login at most `30d`, default `30d`). OpenKey signs approval time plus the lifetime, so ISO dates are refused up front (`INVALID_EXPIRY`): an absolute deadline cannot survive an approval that takes longer than the 30 s clock-skew allowance. A signed session that would outlive the requested lifetime is refused.
24
- - `--owner did:pkh:eip155:CHAIN:ADDRESS` refuses an approval by any other identity. Every login on a profile that already recorded an owner DID is held to that owner automatically, whatever wrote it (`tc init`, an earlier login, or `profile.json` with any posture), and `--owner` must agree with it. Only a local-owner-key profile is not pinned. Owner addresses compare case-insensitively; chain id and space name compare exactly. The owner, permissions and expiry recorded for a session only ever come from a verified signed proof; callback-supplied values are dropped.
25
- - An OpenKey account can hold several keys. Each key is a separate owner with its own spaces and data, and one of them is the account's **primary key**. OpenKey preselects the primary key unless the request names an owner. OpenKey reports whether the approving key is primary. The profile records that as `ownerKeyPrimary`, and `tc auth status` shows it (`null` when OpenKey did not say). A login approved by another key succeeds, but prints a warning on stderr. To use a key that is not primary on purpose, pass `--owner` with its did:pkh, also on a plain `auth login` without `--manifest`: OpenKey then preselects that key. The flag is unsigned metadata, never authority.

  - A live, unexpired session is replaced only by a scope that keeps everything it holds for the same owner and lasts at least as long: renewing the same manifest, or widening a session the owner narrowed earlier. Anything else, including an approval the owner narrowed, one that signs a caveat (a restriction such as a tenant) onto an action the live session holds unrestricted, or a renewal that would end earlier, refuses with `SESSION_IN_USE` and saves nothing. Use a new profile; pass `--replace-session` only when replacing that session is intended. The check runs on the request before consent and again on the approved scope before saving.
28
- - Approval can take minutes. Before saving, the CLI re-reads the profile, key and session under the profile lock; if another login, key rotation or logout changed them meanwhile, it refuses with `PROFILE_CHANGED_DURING_LOGIN` and saves nothing. The CLI's profile, key and session writers take the same lock, and a failed commit write restores all three before the lock is released. If that restore fails too, the login fails with `PROFILE_STATE_INCONSISTENT` naming each failure; a crash between writes surfaces the same code on the next scoped login; check `tc --profile PROFILE context`, then use `--replace-session` or a new profile. The commit waits up to 45 s for the lock (a crashed holder's lock is reclaimed after 30 s), else `PROFILE_LOCK_TIMEOUT`; other commands that time out on the lock report the same code. Wait for the other tc or MCP process and retry.
29
- - The other profile writers follow the same discipline. Local `tc auth rotate` signs in first and replaces the session in that compare-and-commit, so a change meanwhile refuses with `PROFILE_CHANGED_DURING_LOGIN` and the previous session stays. `tc profile delete` waits for the profile lock and removes the profile's files while holding it; a key, session, delegation or permission-request write that was waiting for the lock meanwhile then fails with `PROFILE_NOT_FOUND` instead of recreating the profile (see REFERENCE.md, Profile lock). A name that is not one path segment fails with `INVALID_PROFILE_NAME`. When `tc auth import` bootstraps a delegate profile's first session, the bootstrap reads and writes under the lock and never replaces a session that appeared after the import checked for one (`PROFILE_CHANGED_DURING_IMPORT`); if the bootstrap itself fails, it is rolled back. If a request-bound import (an artifact with a `requestId`) then fails, its bootstrap is rolled back only if the session and the profile's session DID and space still hold exactly what the bootstrap wrote (other profile changes made meanwhile, such as a new default space, are kept); if another login, logout or profile update replaced them, that newer state is kept and the error says so. Other import forms keep a successful bootstrap when a later step fails.

  - If the owner unchecks decrypt, the login still succeeds and lists the decrypt entry in `declined`; reads of that secret then fail. Older OpenKey deployments sign decrypt inside the owner's secrets space rather than as a top-level network grant. That does not grant raw decrypt: it is listed in `declined` with an old-deployment warning and omitted from saved approved permissions. A later `auth request --grant` or secret-read escalation refuses that old nested proof before activating or storing a delegation, with `OPENKEY_GRANT_BROADENED`; obtain a new approval from a deployment that signs the raw network grant.

  - A secrets command (`get`, `list`, `put`, `delete`) on an OpenKey profile without a grant for the name fails fast only when neither stdin nor stderr is a terminal: `PERMISSION_DENIED` (exit 5) with a hint naming this scoped login. Redirecting stdout (`|`, `>`, or command substitution) does not prevent a person at a terminal from seeing the browser approval prompt. If the session is missing or expired, a headless secrets command, including the canonical `secrets get` operation, instead fails with `AUTH_REQUIRED` (exit 3) and the scoped paste-login hint before invoking the node or starting an unscoped browser refresh.
94

  - At a terminal, the owner approves the missing grant in OpenKey. The request carries the missing entries, `tinycloud.capabilities/read` on the space root (the deployed OpenKey refuses a request without it; newer OpenKey releases require it only when it is requested) and raw decrypt in the `encryption` pseudo-space with the owner's address EIP-55 checksummed; a decrypt-only request is placed in the `secrets` space (or `--space`), since OpenKey needs exactly one space. The signed `capabilities/read` counts as requested; anything else beyond the request is refused (`OPENKEY_GRANT_BROADENED`). The grant is stored with its signed SIWE proof (`siweProof`) and a request binding to exactly its signed capabilities (`cli-grant:<cid>`; see below). `secrets get` and other operations (including MCP), in this process or a new one, re-verify that proof against the profile's session key and owner, and hold the grant to its binding, before using it. A stored grant that fails that check (for example one approved by an earlier release, which stored no proof) is not used by them, and a read that needed it asks for approval again. Each such grant is reported by a fixed reason code (`proof_missing`, `unbound`, `outside_request`, `host_mismatch`, `activation_rejected`, ...) and, when the stored CID is the CID of the stored authorization bytes, that CID; never by error text. In JSON mode (`--json`, or stdout not a terminal) the warnings go inside the error's `warnings` array (beside any validated `meta`) when the command fails, or as one `{"warnings": [...]}` line on stderr after the command's output when it succeeds, and stderr carries nothing else; otherwise they are one stderr line saying to approve access again. Expired grants are dropped without a warning. A stale grant needs no cleanup: it expires on its own.
95
- - A stored session that has expired, or no longer verifies for the profile's key, fails every command that needs it with `AUTH_REQUIRED` (exit 3) before any node request, whatever the profile kind; secrets commands on an owner OpenKey profile whose session has passed its expiry refresh it in the browser at a terminal instead. A delegate session created by `tc auth import` has no SIWE; its lifetime is the `exp` its compact-UCAN delegation signs, read from the stored authorization bytes, so it is refused the same way, including sessions imported by earlier releases.

It refuses symlinks, directories and devices, syncs a new owner-only (0600) file, then atomically replaces the destination. Directory sync is attempted after replacement where supported; its failure does not report a failed write when the destination was already replaced.

- Delegations stored in a profile's `additional-delegations.json` replay only into that profile's restored session. Compact-UCAN and signed-login (CACAO) grants must carry a verifiable proof and a valid `authorityRequest` binding whose `requested` capabilities contain all of their signed authority. The CLI, `tc secrets get`, and MCP tools all apply this rule; expired records and cross-user compact grants with a verified CID, signature, and signed audience matching the stored transport audience are skipped silently, while refused replay candidates produce fixed-code `STORED_GRANT_SKIPPED` warnings. A stored record whose `delegationHeader` is anything but a single string `Authorization` installs nothing.

- - **Request-bound import.** `tc auth import` of an artifact with a `requestId` (from `tc auth grant`, or MCP `tinycloud_auth_import`) binds the delegation to the stored request it was checked against. Importing a stored delegation again this way replaces its record and binding.
134
- - **Import without a request.** `tc auth import` of a bare portable delegation, a stored record, or an envelope with no `requestId`, addressed to this profile's session key, verifies it and binds it to exactly its own signed capabilities: request ID `unbound-import:<cid>`, with an `authorityRequestAudit` note. A signed-login grant must carry its SIWE message and signature; an unproved session-addressed grant fails with `INVALID_AUTH_IMPORT`, and one with an invalid proof fails with `DELEGATION_REJECTED` without being saved. No request limits a valid import: the profile gets the delegation's full signed authority, whatever the artifact's `permissions` say. To limit authority, import against a request instead (`tc auth request --emit`, then `tc auth grant` by the owner, then `tc auth import`). This route never replaces or weakens an existing binding for the same CID.

  - **Proofless cross-user imports.** A portable grant with no signed proof is refused with `INVALID_AUTH_IMPORT` even when addressed to another key. It is not written to the profile or grant history and cannot produce repeated replay warnings.
136
136
  - **Expired compact delegations.** A compact-UCAN whose signed expiry has passed, or passes while the import is being stored, fails with `DELEGATION_EXPIRED` (exit 1) and leaves no delegation row or grant-history entry. A provisional first session is rolled back too; if another login or logout changed profile state meanwhile, its newer state is kept.
137
137
  - **One-time migration.** Records stored by earlier releases have no binding. The first command that restores the profile's own session binds each verifiable record to exactly its own signed capabilities (`migrated:<cid>`, audit note `source: "migration"`) and writes `delegation-binding-migration.json`, listing bound and unbound CIDs. Records without proof cannot be migrated. Migration is best-effort and restartable under the profile lock: an interrupted run or a busy lock defers remaining records to the next command. The runtime never installs an unbound record during that wait or afterward; it reports `unbound` (or `proof_missing` for records without proof).
138
- - Older releases ignore the new fields. They do not enforce bindings, and an older `tc auth import` of a CID that is already stored replaces its record with an unbound one, which this release then refuses until it is imported again.
139
- - **CLI grants.** Signed-login grants from `tc auth request --grant` (OpenKey or local key) and secret-read approvals are checked against the request they answer, then stored with their `siweProof` and bound to their signed capabilities (`cli-grant:<cid>`). A local-key grant of only raw decrypt on the owner's network names no space; it is verified like any other grant. A new grant never replaces an existing bound record for the same CID. Earlier CLI releases stored signed-login grants without a proof: these are now refused with `proof_missing` on every replay path, even if a binding was later added. A grant with proof but without a valid binding reports `unbound`; cross-user delegations addressed to the profile's identity rather than its session key remain separate and are not installed by replay.

  The binding is local profile data. It stops records written by other paths from granting authority. A request binding limits a stored grant to its signed authority, but it does not prove where the record came from: anyone who can write the profile store and holds a valid grant for this session key can add one. It does not stop someone who can write the profile directory, who already holds the session key and the signed bytes.

- `tc --profile PROFILE auth grants list --json` reads only the local profile; it makes no node request. Its `session` includes the recomputed session CID when available. Each row reports the stored CID (only if CID-shaped), expiry, source, binding, proof kind, effective scope or stored scope, and `local` verification separately from `node: "not_checked"`. `for_another_key` means the stored audience names another key: this session cannot install it, and its displayed scope is stored metadata rather than locally verified authority. For session-targeted grants, local verification checks compact signatures, CIDs, audience, expiry, resources and binding; for CACAO it checks the owner's signature, audience, lifetime, ReCap, CID and binding. The node still checks delegation chains and revocation, so `local: "verified"` alone is not proof of access. Neither host, request ID nor audit note appears in this output.

  The `for_another_key` label requires a valid signed compact audience and CID matching the stored Authorization, plus a matching stored `delegateDID`; an edited transport audience or invalid proof is refused with a reason instead.

- `tc --profile PROFILE auth grants remove <cid>` removes all local rows with that exact CID, without contacting the node; delegates may do this. An owner can add `--revoke --yes` to discover the verified local node (unless a host was explicitly selected), revoke there, then remove local rows only after successful revocation. Delegate-session profiles cannot use `--revoke`. If revocation succeeds but local removal fails, `GRANT_REVOKED_LOCAL_REMOVE_FAILED` includes a hint to retry `auth grants remove <cid>` **without** `--revoke`. `tc delegation revoke <cid>` also revokes a CID directly when its target is known. OpenKey cannot sign raw `urn:cid` ReCap authority today: owner OpenKey revocation falls back to command-scoped `delegation/revoke` on an owner-signed CID-bound space, and fails immediately when no verified fallback space exists. The JavaScript SDK cannot currently issue a delegatee self-revocation, although the node accepts one. Local removal is not revocation.

  If another process already removed the row after the node revoke, `--revoke` succeeds with `removed: 0`. Other post-revoke local removal errors include the underlying `error.meta.causeCode` (for example `PROFILE_LOCK_TIMEOUT`) so automation can distinguish lock contention from a node failure.

- To replace an old grant without a proof, an owner can approve again with `tc auth request --grant [--device]`, then remove the old CID. A delegate can emit a request with `tc auth request --emit`, have the owner run `tc auth grant`, import the signed result with `tc auth import`, then remove the old CID.

After the window, `tinycloud share notify` prints `partial-failure` (exit 9; JSON `retryable: false`, `reason: "delivery-window-expired"`) and explains that the sender must publish a new share and invite the recipient then. `share publish --notify --json` includes the same failure under `notification`. A confirmed repeat within the window prints `already-delivered`; an unconfirmed failed attempt remains retryable until the window closes. If the sender history cannot record a successful delivery confirmation, the CLI warns on stderr but preserves the successful publish/notify result; a later repeat can report `delivered` again.

327

  **History and node preflight.** Post-publication sender-history writes wait up to 45 seconds for another process's profile lock (including stale-lock recovery). If the first history write still fails, the CLI warns but prints the published link with its normal exit status; a later `share list`, `share notify <id>`, or `share revoke <id>` cannot find that share by ID. An immediate `--notify` can still deliver using the in-process record. Other share-command profile-lock timeouts report `PROFILE_LOCK_TIMEOUT` with a retry hint. Standalone domain notification validates the recipient and expired delivery window locally before contacting `/info`: an expired window remains exit 9 even if the node is unavailable. A node-info transport failure, including a stalled response body, is `UNAVAILABLE` (exit 4); a completed but unsupported or malformed version is `INVALID_ARGUMENT` (exit 2). Publish-time refusals say nothing was shared and no invitation was sent; standalone notify refusals say no invitation was sent.
328
328
 
329
329
  **Concurrent history changes.** A Share command resolves its profile once for authentication and every sender-history operation, including retries; a later default-profile change cannot redirect a share link into another profile. If a write waits more than about 2 seconds to acquire the profile lock, the CLI writes one waiting notice to stderr naming that profile. A profile removed after an earlier history read or during an operation, or repeated key/salt changes, returns `SHARE_HISTORY_RETRY` (exit 1) with a retry hint; a profile missing from the outset still returns `PROFILE_NOT_FOUND` with the setup hint. If a history retry follows a revoke, check the node state before trying again: revocation might already have succeeded even though sender history could not record it.

  That guarantee assumes every process using the profile runs on the same host and in the same PID namespace (a crashed process is recognised by its PID being gone), and a filesystem whose `rename` of a directory fails when the target exists. It does not hold for a `TC_HOME` shared across machines (NFS) or between containers that do not share a PID namespace: there a live process can look crashed, have its turn or staging directory removed, and the lock can be taken twice or stop working. The one case this release handles across PID namespaces is a record that carries the checking process's own PID, below. Older releases running at the same time keep their own limits: a 1.0.0-beta.16-or-older process paused for longer than 30 s right after creating `.lock`, or a 1.0.0-beta.17 … 1.0.1-beta.4 process reclaiming `.lock` at the same moment as such a process, can still let two writers in. CLI 1.0.0-beta.16 and older never reclaim an abandoned `.lock` without an owner record; a newer release does, once it is 30 s old.

  - It comes from another PID namespace, its socket was bound in the very turn directory this process uses (the same device and inode, so a bind mount of that directory qualifies), and either the socket is gone or the kernel refuses connections to it. Only the holder removes its socket, after releasing, or a process that saw it refused; the kernel refuses connections only once the holder has closed the socket or exited, so a live holder, paused or not and under any hostname, is waited for. A refusal counts only if this process can then connect to its own socket in the same directory. That catches a sandbox that refuses every connection, such as a seccomp filter returning ECONNREFUSED for all connects. It does not catch a sandbox that fabricates refusals selectively: a seccomp filter keyed on the call's arguments, a seccomp user-notification supervisor, or a BPF LSM program. The lock trusts the kernel's answers here, as its PID check trusts kill(2). A sandbox that fakes either answer can make a live holder look gone, and is unsupported. Under Bun a refusal never counts, because Bun reports a refused connection as a missing file; a removed socket does.

  A crashed holder's lock is reclaimed automatically (`.lock` once 30 s old). With hard links, dead-owner recovery keeps a `.recover-*` claim inside `.lock` until it finishes; it never unlinks or moves a newly published live owner, and a failed claim never removes another writer's empty `.lock`. A crashed current-release recoverer may leave only a `.recover-*` claim. Releases through 1.0.1-beta.4 cannot reclaim it even after it ages. A current-release command that acquires the affected profile's lock processes the claim, restoring a live owner's record if it contains one.

398
- On either recovery path, an orphaned `.recover-*` claim can hold a replacement owner's live record: the hard-link path may claim it before detecting a mismatch, and the no-hard-links path may move it before putting it back. If the recoverer crashes and that holder releases while its process stays alive, the next acquisition restores the claimed record as `owner.json`. Acquisition can then remain blocked until the PID exits **and** the record is at least 30 s old—for a long-lived MCP server, possibly until it restarts. This costs availability only; it never admits a second holder. To clear the stalled profile manually, remove its `profiles/{name}/.lock` **only when no `tc` or MCP process is running**.

Its JSON reports `truncated` and `nextCursor` (`null` when the node doesn't say), and `--limit N --cursor C` reads page by page. Claim a complete listing only when `truncated` is `false`. If output is large, read to a local file and account for every returned portion before claiming full coverage. A metadata row or summary is not the original body.

- Without `--to`, publish creates a bearer link: anyone holding the complete URL can read it until it expires or `tc share revoke <id>` revokes it. `--to email:`, `--to did:` and `--to domain:` create addressed links that only the named recipient can open after proving who they are. Keep complete URLs, including the `#` fragment, out of logs. `--notify` requires `read`; domain invitations also require `--notify-to <email>` at the exact domain, a matching sender/owner DID and node 1.17.3+. Session-only publishers can notify their own domain policies. Standalone `tc share notify <id> --to <email>` refuses records without `read` and domain delivery on unsupported nodes before sending. It retries within 5 minutes of publication; after that it reports a non-retryable `partial-failure` (exit 9), and the sender must publish a new share to invite again. A confirmed repeat reports `already-delivered`; a failed history confirmation warns without hiding a successful delivery. Human publish prints only the URL; with `--notify --json`, the redacted publication JSON also contains `notification` with delivery status and attempts. The default lifetime is seven days, clamped to the verified session expiry; JSON output reports `expiryClamped`. Explicit `--expires` values beyond the session end fail instead of being silently shortened. See [REFERENCE.md](REFERENCE.md) for inspect, receive, list, show and revoke.

  After a share is published, a profile-lock or history-write failure warns without hiding the published link; later `share list`, `share notify <id>`, and `share revoke <id>` cannot find an unrecorded share. Standalone domain notification checks the recipient and local five-minute window before probing the node; an expired window stays a non-retryable partial failure even when `/info` is unreachable.
