saqib mirandClaude Sonnet 5 a49389dc2c docs: spec for identity and authentication (010)
Not on the original roadmap -- surfaced as a genuine blocking gap while
planning supporthub-web's own agent/admin UI feature: fastify.authenticate
has been a complete no-op stub since 002, and identity/auth's login
endpoint has never taken a password. User/UserRole (two seeded-but-
passwordless demo accounts) and the AuthUser/JwtPayload types were all
already scaffolded and clearly intended for exactly this -- this finishes
that original wiring rather than inventing a new design.

Scope: real login (password hash + JWT), fastify.authenticate actually
rejecting invalid sessions, role-based route gating, a self-identity
endpoint, admin-created accounts, and logout. Password reset, MFA, and
login rate-limiting are explicitly deferred to Phase 11's own security
hardening pass.

Specification Quality Checklist: Identity and Authentication

Purpose: Validate specification completeness and quality before proceeding to planning Created: 2026-09-07 Feature: spec.md

Content Quality

  • No implementation details (languages, frameworks, APIs)
  • Focused on user value and business needs
  • Written for non-technical stakeholders
  • All mandatory sections completed

Requirement Completeness

  • No [NEEDS CLARIFICATION] markers remain
  • Requirements are testable and unambiguous
  • Success criteria are measurable
  • Success criteria are technology-agnostic (no implementation details)
  • All acceptance scenarios are defined
  • Edge cases are identified
  • Scope is clearly bounded
  • Dependencies and assumptions identified

Feature Readiness

  • All functional requirements have clear acceptance criteria
  • User scenarios cover primary flows
  • Feature meets measurable outcomes defined in Success Criteria
  • No implementation details leak into specification

Notes

  • This feature was not on the original 11-phase roadmap — it surfaced as a genuine blocking gap while planning supporthub-web's 001-agent-admin-ui: fastify.authenticate has been a complete no-op stub since 002, and identity/auth's login endpoint has never taken a password. Numbered 010 in supporthub-api's own sequence since it's a real, immediately-needed backend prerequisite, not deferred hardening.
  • User/UserRole (with two seeded-but-passwordless demo accounts, admin@supporthub.internal/agent@supporthub.internal) and the AuthUser/JwtPayload types in src/common/types were all found already scaffolded, unwired, and clearly intended for exactly this feature since the original pre-speckit scaffold — this is a "finish the originally-intended wiring" feature, not a new design invented from nothing.
  • Scope is deliberately narrow: real login + real route gating + role checks + a self-identity endpoint + admin-created accounts + logout. Password reset, MFA, rate-limiting, and registration are explicitly out of scope (Assumptions), matching Phase 11's own "security hardening pass" as the more appropriate later home for those.
  • All items pass; no revision iterations were needed.
