-- With `enable_weak_ref` and `enable_request_signal`, an object reachable only

-  workerd cancels the fetch; while the invocation runs it is not. Pending
-  timers and listeners on the request's signal do not keep it.
-- Strong values in a WeakMap keyed by a `Request` (even one the handler
-  created), properties set on a `Request`, and WeakMap values keyed by its
-  `Headers`, `ctx` or `env` stay reachable after the invocation ends. The
-  lifetime registry in `src/auth-admission.ts` therefore stores `WeakRef`s.
-- No `gc()` is exposed. Allocating large arrays (32 × 1 MiB per request)

 ### Production Access bypass for agent endpoints
 
-P0 of [#837](https://github.com/zackbart/connecta/issues/837) asked whether
-`/agent/*` can skip a Worker-level Cloudflare Access application, so an agent
-sends only its `cta_` token, while every other path keeps Access and
-`ctx.access`. It can. The probe ran on 2026-10-15 against a disposable Worker on
-its `workers.dev` hostname, with compatibility date `2026-09-01`, `cf`
-1.0.0-beta.14, Wrangler 4.114.0, and curl 8.7.1 with `--path-as-is`, so raw
-paths reached the edge unnormalized. The Worker-level application allowed only
-a probe service token. Its unauthenticated refusal was therefore Access's 403
-page rather than a login redirect. The [observations](https://github.com/zackbart/connecta/blob/main/scripts/probes/access-agent-bypass-2026-10-15.json)
-record three identical rounds after each configuration change had produced
-three consecutive matching responses.
-
-- **Precedence.** A self-hosted application whose destination is
-  `{ "type": "public", "uri": "<host>/agent/*" }`, with one `bypass` policy
-  including `everyone`, overrides the Worker-level application on matching
-  paths only. Unauthenticated requests reach the Worker there. `/mcp`, `/`,
-  and every unmatched path still get the Access refusal. A service token is
-  still admitted on them with `ctx.access` from the Worker-level application.
-  This confirms Cloudflare's documented hierarchy, and that Worker-level
-  protection still covers the `workers.dev` hostname.
-- **`ctx.access` on a bypassed request is present, not absent.** Its `aud` is
-  nonempty and is the _path_ application's AUD, not the Worker-level one.
-  `getIdentity()` resolved to `undefined` for every credential tested: none, a
-  valid service token, a `cta_`-style bearer token, and a forged
-  `Cf-Access-Jwt-Assertion`. A service token on a protected path also gave
-  `undefined` identity, carrying the Worker-level AUD. A human
-  `CF_Authorization` cookie on a bypassed path was not tested, so what
-  `getIdentity()` returns there is unknown. That is one more reason the agent
-  route ignores Access context rather than relying on its contents.
-- **API shape.** A Worker destination is exclusive to one application. A
-  second application with `{ "type": "worker", "worker_id" }` plus `uri` or
-  `path` was refused with 409 `destination belongs to another application`. The
-  bypass must be hostname-and-path, stored with domain `<host>/agent/*`, and it
-  covers only that exact hostname.
-- **Propagation.** Creating or deleting each application took 15–19 seconds to
-  settle across runs. While a deployment or application change was propagating,
-  the edge returned transient 500 (`error code: 1104`) and 404 (`error code:
-  1042` or `1043`) responses. The recorded run has one such 404, on the
-  Worker-level-only service-token control for `/agent/x`. Deleting the path
-  application restored the 403 on `/agent/x`.
+Access uses a hostname-and-path bypass application for `/agent/*`; the
+Worker-level application protects other paths. A bypassed request can still
+carry `ctx.access`, so agent routes ignore that context.

-result. Errors are fixed diagnostics plus those facts. Teardown deletes every
-tracked id on its own. Then Access applications, service tokens, and Workers

-separately. Run
-`node scripts/probes/access-agent-bypass.mjs --self-test` to check the runner

 ### Alchemy Worker deployment
 
-Two throwaway deployments on 2026-10-20 verified the Worker example's
-Alchemy path with alchemy 2.0.0-beta.83, effect 4.0.5, and Alchemy local
-state, then deleted every resource and confirmed by re-listing. Alchemy
-uploads the full Worker with `PUT /workers/scripts/<name>`, the endpoint an
-earlier full deploy had been suspected of losing `ctx.access` through.
-
-The first deployment ran a near copy of the stack with a temporary diagnostic
-route. With an Access service token in a non-identity policy, the Worker saw
-`ctx.access` carrying the Worker-level application's AUD and no identity, as
-expected for a service token. D1, the Worker Loader, R2, and secret bindings
-worked; `/agent/*` reached connecta through the bypass; `/ui/api/config`
-returned 403 `Cloudflare Access human identity required`; and
-`connecta doctor` passed with a `cta_` token issued inside the Worker. A code
-update through `alchemy deploy` kept the script tag, `ctx.access`, and D1 rows.
-Three consecutive probe rounds agreed.
-
-The second deployment ran the shipped `alchemy.run.ts` from the packed package
-in a separate project on Node 26, changing only resource names and the Access policy
-(a service token). The edge checks in the example's "Verify after deploying"
-held for three or more rounds after each deploy. `alchemy destroy` deleted the
-Worker and both Access applications and orphaned the retained D1 database; the
-next deploy adopted it by name with its rows. After deleting local state, a
-deploy reused the Worker with the same script tag, and `applicationId` took
-both Access applications over with unchanged AUDs and no duplicates. Removing
-`applicationId` afterwards planned an in-place update, and a further deploy
-planned no changes. The account API token needed only Workers Scripts Write,
-D1 Write, Access: Apps and Policies Write, and Access: Organizations, Identity
-Providers, and Groups Read.

 Four findings shape the operator rules. Alchemy local state under
 `.alchemy/state/` records secret binding values in plaintext. Alchemy sends no
 `keep_bindings`, so each deploy deletes secrets set outside the stack.

-### Why not Schema or HttpApi for core routes
-
-Both were measured and both lost. `effect` is imported through its barrel,
-which defeats tree-shaking: the first conversion step measured about +20 ms
-of Worker cold start for it, and that cost was accepted over deep imports at
-every call site. The catch is that a module the barrel reaches is paid for in
-full, however little of it is used. Effect Schema for config validation and the
-meta-tool inputs came to about +62 KB gzip and +13 ms of cold start in the
-root, for a validator no clearer than the hand-written schema in `src/config.ts`; the
-meta-tool inputs stay zod, which the MCP SDK bundles regardless. `HttpApi` for
-the operator and activity routes cost about +100 KB gzip on `./ui` and +130 KB
-on `./activity`, and matching the wire format meant opting out of most of what
-it does: unowned paths fall through rather than 404, a wrong method is a JSON
-405, and the content-type and size checks run before a body is read. The root
-entry imports `effect` and the four public HTTP modules confined to the private
-dispatcher (`test/purity.node.test.ts`).
-Effect 4.x is a long-term-support line, but its area barrels `effect/http`,
-`effect/http-api`, `effect/schema`, and `effect/sql` are still tagged
-`@stability unstable` and can change within it; only core modules such as
-`effect/Schema` are stable. That is why Effect is pinned to one exact version
-and every Effect upgrade is its own deliberate pull request. A deployment
-that also depends on Effect, such as the Worker example's Alchemy stack, must pin the
-same version to resolve a single copy. Connecta's own lockfile and packed

-`onExcessProperty: "error"`; its default strips them. The generated schemas
-still differ from the published meta-tool schemas, including record rendering and
-composed numeric bounds. A Schema replacement would need to preserve that
-contract and memoized rendering. Both MCP SDK packages still depend on Zod,
-so changing our inputs alone does not remove Zod from an installation.
-
-A one-endpoint `HttpApi` prototype adds 106,634 bytes gzip to `./ui` and 106,453
-to `./activity`. Even plain `HttpRouter` adds 45,324 to `./ui`, taking it to
-130,023 against a 128,983 cap. Both default handlers return an empty 404 for a
-wrong method and an unowned path; our routes need a JSON 405 for the former
-and module fallthrough for the latter. Their `toWebHandler` also builds its
-layer immediately and owns a runner, so adopting it would require proving
-global-scope safety and preserving our scheduler and response-lifetime rules.
-Those historical defaults are not the production adapter: the narrow public
-HttpRouter dispatch above preserves explicit method refusals, unowned fallthrough
-and the existing edge runner without `toWebHandler`.
-
-Effect's MCP server has a separate compatibility gate. Its `2026-07-28`
-adapter accepted a stateless `tools/list`, but its `2025-06-18` adapter refused
-a fresh request with 400. Initialization issued a session, and that session's
-next request returned 404 on a fresh handler; Connecta served the same fresh
-legacy list with 200 JSON and no session. The stable package exports no MCP
-client, so it also cannot replace our downstream SDK and OAuth implementation.
-[Issue #622](https://github.com/zackbart/connecta/issues/622) records the server
-parity requirements. These historical measurements supported retaining MCP protocol and validation
-implementations. Production HTTP dispatch now uses the separately proven narrow
-public adapter above; stable v4 alone did not establish its compatibility.
-
-The core's cost is recorded rather than guessed. Against 0.24.4 the root entry
-grew from 235,346 to 279,526 bytes gzip, the Worker example from 263,949 to
-314,336, and each provider by about 36 KB, since each reaches Effect through
-`remoteMcp()`. `pnpm run check:bundle` caps the deployed shapes (the root,
-`./worker`, `./ui`, the operator UI assets, `./d1`, `./auth/access-tokens`,
-the Worker example, and the other non-provider entries) against
-`scripts/bundle-budget.json`. Per-provider entries are reported with their
-size and change from baseline but not capped: every deployment already imports
-the root, which carries the Effect core, so a provider's standalone bundle
-counts that core a second time. An install carries about 53 MB of `effect`, with
-no dependencies of its own.
+The upward MCP protocol leaves remain SDK implementations with native

+
+### Validation and HTTP boundaries
+
+Config validation uses `src/config.ts`; meta-tool inputs use Zod, which the MCP
+SDK also depends on. Core routing uses the narrow public HTTP adapter above.
+Effect is pinned exactly; deployments using Effect must resolve the same version.
+`test/package-surface.node.test.ts` and `scripts/check-package.mjs` check one copy.
