fix: renew workspace callback tokens for sessions awake past 24h

[simple-agent-manager]

Summary

Workspace callback tokens expired after 24h and nothing renewed them, so any workspace awake longer than that got 401 Invalid or expired callback token on every workspace callback. This PR adds a secure renewal path and makes every consumer pick up the new token.

Production evidence (read-only Workers Logs, 100% sampling):

• session-snapshot/prepare 401 loop on workspace 01M3Z4CGTEWNBP3VSTFQK90XJ1 (83 in the rolling 24h; the session could never sleep).
• git-token 401 on 01M3XX0HCA4H5XHXB9ZF3N0867 at 2026-10-03 12:31Z, about 24h after it started.
• workspace-resource-history 401s (the agent deletes that spool as "permanent").
• No /messages 401 was observed (those sessions produced no output after their 24h mark). Message loss is proven by code and tests, not by production: the old reporter treated 401 as terminal, deleted its outbox and dropped every later message.

What changes

1. Renewal route POST /api/workspaces/:id/callback-token/renew (apps/api/src/services/workspace-callback-token-renewal.ts). It needs two proofs, the same dual-credential pattern as the snapshot upload relay:

   • the workspace's current, unexpired token in Authorization;
   • the hosting node's token in the JSON body.

   It renews only when all of these hold:

   • D1 binds the workspace to that node;
   • the node belongs to the workspace's user;
   • the workspace is creating, running or recovery, and the node is not terminal;
   • the token is past CALLBACK_TOKEN_REFRESH_THRESHOLD_RATIO of its lifetime.

   It refuses Instant (cf-container) workspaces (see below). Authenticated attempts count against an atomic per-workspace limit, RATE_LIMIT_CALLBACK_TOKEN_RENEWAL (default 12 per hour). The count is one guarded D1 upsert in the new table workspace_callback_token_renewal_rate_limits (migration 0180, additive, cascade-deleted with the workspace), and over the limit the route answers 429 with Retry-After. A slot is spent only after both proofs, the node binding and the active check pass, so a caller without the credentials cannot use up the agent's quota (rule 28 §4).

   The identity is re-checked before the token is returned. The renewed token keeps the chain's first iat as gen_iat, so the Instant stale-callback guard keeps comparing generations correctly. Responses are Cache-Control: no-store.

2. VM hibernate delivery (workspace-callback-token-binding.ts, node-agent-session-snapshots.ts). Every VM hibernate request carries a freshly minted workspace token over the node-management channel, the same way workspace creation delivers one. The token is minted only if:

   • the workspace is bound to that VM node, has the same owner and is active, and the node is not terminal;
   • the binding is unchanged after signing.

   Agents have accepted this field since 2026-07-11, so already-running agents get working snapshot callbacks as soon as the Worker deploys. The sleep wait loop repeats the hibernate request every poll until the agent accepts it. One token, minted and binding-checked for the first poll, serves every poll, because the agent installs a delivered token whether or not it accepts the request.

   Instant is excluded from both renewal and delivery. A container generation is replaced under the same nodeId, and neither path can tell a superseded generation from the current one. Instant keeps today's behaviour: a fresh token on every cold wake.

3. VM agent renewal (internal/server/workspace_callback_token_renewal.go):

   • After each successful heartbeat it renews tokens past WORKSPACE_CALLBACK_TOKEN_REFRESH_RATIO.
   • A refusal is latched per token; a new token clears the latch and backoff.
   • Transient failures (including node-credential refusals) back off.
   • The result is installed by compare-and-swap, so a concurrent delivery wins.
   • The token is persisted before it is published.
   • A delivered token that expires earlier than the current one is never adopted.
   • Every change reaches the message reporter and every ACP SessionHost of that workspace; SessionHost reads it lock-free (rule 46).
   • Every other reader takes workspaceMu: SessionHost creation, git credential auth, publish, provisioning and standalone clone. A new concurrency test found that these read the token through a shared pointer outside the lock, which is a data race once renewal writes it periodically.
   • Publish jobs (up to DeployBuildPublishTimeout) read the current token for every request, not the one captured at start.
   • A renewed or delivered token whose claims name another workspace, or the node, is never installed. A renewal response like that is retried after backoff.
   • The refresh-ratio clamp matches the control plane: non-finite values mean the default, finite values clamp to 0.1-0.9.

4. Message reporter (internal/messagereport/credential.go). A 401 no longer deletes anything:

   • If a renewal replaced the token mid-request, it resends at once.
   • Otherwise it holds the rows (bounded by the outbox cap), sends nothing for the rejected token, and resumes when a new token arrives.
   • A pause longer than MSG_AUTH_RENEWAL_WAIT (15m) is reported once as an error over the node-scoped error channel.
   • Resent rows cannot duplicate: the API rejects before reading the body and dedupes by message id.

Security properties (independent adversarial review: no new trust boundary, no auth-model change)

• A node token alone cannot obtain a workspace token.
• A workspace token copied out of a VM devcontainer cannot renew itself.
• Expired tokens are never renewed.
• No global expiry change, no signature bypass, no node-token fallback.
• Renewal is rate limited per workspace, atomically.
• Instant container generations cannot extend their authority.
• Deleting or stopping a workspace ends its callback authority at once: every workspace callback checks the status. Moving a workspace ends renewal for the old node, whose token then lapses within one lifetime.

Rollout and legacy limits (read this)

• Running nodes with old agents (for example the pre-fix 7a9782c90 build):
  • The API-side hibernate delivery fixes only the snapshot path there (prepare, progress, complete). Proven by running workspace_callback_token_hibernate_test.go unchanged against the pinned 7a9782c90 source.
  • It does not fix old-agent message persistence (the old reporter still deletes its outbox on the first 401), SessionHost token copies (activity, usage, interactions, agent-key), git-token, resource history, or other workspace callbacks on those nodes. Those need the new agent, which only new nodes get.
  • No hot replacement of active nodes is done or needed. Old nodes drain normally (rule 54).
• New agents: full renewal and propagation, tested end to end with an injected clock.
• Residual, not fixed here: credentials an agent process got at start are not rotated inside that running process: the SAM AI-proxy key, {wstoken} base URLs, the Codex config.toml URL, and the codex refresh URL. A SAM-proxy-mode agent process that stays alive for more than 24h without restarting still loses LLM access until it restarts. Any restart picks up the current, renewed token. Tracked in SAM Idea 01M432G3276YZWCP3HEJ5B25J5.
• Instant (cf-container): unchanged. A token per cold wake; containers sleep after CF_CONTAINER_SLEEP_AFTER (1h) idle. An Instant session kept awake for more than 24h without sleeping still hits 401s, exactly as before. Generation-aware renewal through the container DO is filed as tasks/backlog/2026-10-04-instant-generation-aware-callback-token-renewal.md (measure first).
• Bounded-sleep coordination: rows held in a VM outbox are not durable transcript; the bounded-sleep fallback sibling (01M42YPN0VJT93T8S9MMYV429Q) documents that boundary.

Other residual risks

• Each token change walks every SessionHost on the node under sessionHostMu. That is O(hosts per node), about once per workspace every 12h; it is not a hot path.
• UpdateAfterBootstrap still writes the boot workspace's token directly. It runs once at boot, before any token is due for renewal. Audit filed: tasks/backlog/2026-10-04-update-after-bootstrap-workspace-token-writer.md.
• The older snapshot upload relay sends its node proof in a custom header that Workers Logs may record. This PR does not touch it. Filed: tasks/backlog/2026-10-04-snapshot-relay-node-proof-in-body.md.
• Instant containers hold both their node and workspace tokens in one process, as before, so a compromised Instant session can act for its own single-workspace sandbox only (Idea 01M432G3276YZWCP3HEJ5B25J5).

Validation

All checks ran after rebasing on main 176385d (#2222), except Go: #2222 touched no Go code.

• pnpm check:fast (format, oxlint, eslint, type boundaries)
• pnpm --filter @simple-agent-manager/api typecheck (with shared rebuilt)
• API unit suite: 807/807 files, 11,230/11,230 tests (vitest JSON reporter success: true)
• VM agent: go vet ./..., go test -race ./... (all 25 packages; the server and pty packages again after the final move-only split)
• pnpm quality:migration-safety, pnpm quality:migration-ordering (migration 0180)
• SonarCloud: the first analysis flagged both jwt.ParseUnverified calls (go:S5659). The agent reads its own token's claims only to schedule renewal and to refuse a token minted for another workspace; it never authenticates anyone with them. They now go through a small documented payload decoder (decodeCallbackTokenClaims, 6c48f48) with a test for malformed, padded and fractional-date tokens. G1/G2 mutations still go red. The two code smells are fixed too
• Workers (Miniflare, real Worker/D1/JWT): tests/workers/workspace-callback-token-renewal.test.ts (34), covering rate limit, cascade, Instant refusal and delivery reuse. Together with the related suites (route-auth-validation, workspace-messages, agent-activity vertical slice, session-snapshot wiring, Instant runtime recovery ×3, node-lifecycle ×2, scheduled-stuck-tasks): 11 files, 196/196 tests
• pnpm quality:file-sizes. mcp_build.go (529) and workspace_routing.go (798) grew in this branch, so the publish job reporter and the PTY/resolver helpers moved out in move-only commits (byte-identical bodies; workspace_routing.go is now 603 lines)
• Mutation checks. Each guard was removed once and the intended tests went red:
  • API: M1 node binding, M2 owner binding, M3 node proof, M4 not-due gate, M5 gen_iat, M6 claim/path, M7 delivery status, M8 post-sign re-read, M9 Instant exclusion, M10 renewal identity re-check.
  • Agent: A1 expiry ordering, A2 CAS, A3 refusal latch, A4/A5 propagation, A6 persistence, A7 node-credential retry.
  • Reporter R1/R2/R4/R5/R6, SessionHost S1, upsert publish U1.
  • R3 (resume bookkeeping) is not a guard: parking is keyed on the rejected token, so any new token resumes by construction.
  • Review fixes: M11 Instant refusal; M12 limit enforcement; M13 quota spent before authentication (failed-auth attempts used up the quota); M14 delivery memo; W1 one delivery per wait; G1/G2 identity check on delivery/renewal; G3/G4 publish token source; G5 locked token read (race detector).
• Candidate selection: no sweep/cron/alarm predicate changed.

Request I/O (rule 60)

• Renewal route: 2 JWT verifications, 1 D1 binding read, the existing callback-acceptance check (no reads; a deleted-signal read only for stopping workspaces), 1 D1 quota upsert, 1 identity re-read on success. That is ≤4 D1 round-trips, within the mutation budget of 12. A not-due answer stops after the upsert.
• Hibernate delivery: 2 D1 reads and 1 RS256 sign, once per hibernate wait. Previously this ran once per 1s poll, up to ~300 times.

Migration 0180 is a new table only. No existing rows change, and no existing capability depends on it (rule 71). Rows are cascade-deleted with their workspace.

Staging Verification (REQUIRED for all code changes — merge-blocking)

Staging was waived by Raphaël for this wave ("permits skipping staging where difficult or limited value for this wave; retain other tests/reviews"; recorded in the parent task and SAM knowledge SleepWakePerformance). Reason it is low-value here: the failure needs a workspace awake more than 24h, and the cross-boundary contract is exercised more precisely by these substitutes:

• the real Worker route with real D1 and real RS256 keys (Miniflare), with tokens whose clocks are shifted;

• the real VM-agent hibernate handler and capture against a stub control plane, on current AND pinned pre-fix agent source;

• Go renewal and propagation tests with an injected clock that crosses the refresh point and the 24h expiry.

• Staging deployment green — waived (see above)

• Live app verified via Playwright — waived; no UI change

• Existing workflows confirmed working — waived; covered by full unit/Go suites

• New feature/fix verified on staging — waived; substitute evidence above

• Infrastructure verification completed — waived for this wave. The VM agent changes are additive: no cloud-init, DNS, TLS or protocol changes, and the heartbeat payload is unchanged.

• Mobile and desktop verification notes added for UI changes — N/A: no UI changes

Staging Verification Evidence

Waived per user instruction for this wave. After deploy, production verification checks:

• the Worker version;
• that POST /api/workspaces/:id/callback-token/renew answers 401 for an unauthenticated call;
• that session-snapshot/prepare 401s stop appearing in Workers Logs.

UI Compliance Checklist (Required for UI changes)

N/A: no UI changes.

UI Screenshot Evidence

End-to-End Verification (Required for multi-component changes)

• Data flow traced from user input to final outcome with code path citations
• Capability test exercises the complete happy path across system boundaries
• All spec/doc assumptions about existing behavior verified against code
• Gaps documented below

Data Flow Trace

Renewal

1. health.go sendNodeHeartbeat succeeds.
2. workspace_callback_token_renewal.go renewDueWorkspaceCallbackTokensOnce → dueWorkspaceCallbackTokenRenewals → requestWorkspaceCallbackTokenRenewal.
3. API routes/workspaces/callback-token-renewal.ts → services/workspace-callback-token-renewal.ts renewWorkspaceCallbackToken → jwt.ts signCallbackToken with gen_iat.
4. Back on the agent: replaceRenewedWorkspaceCallbackToken (CAS, then persist) → propagateWorkspaceCallbackToken, which reaches the message reporter and acp.SessionHost.SetCallbackToken.
5. Later callbacks read the new token: SessionHost via callbackToken(), other consumers via runtime.CallbackToken.

Delivery

1. session-sleep-snapshot-wait.ts / acp-activity-callback-handler.ts call hibernateAgentSessionOnNode → mintWorkspaceCallbackTokenForNodeDelivery.
2. The node-management request reaches the VM agent's handleHibernateAgentSession → sessionSnapshotHandlerInput → upsertWorkspaceRuntime, which adopts, persists and publishes.
3. The capture's prepareSnapshot / reportSnapshotProgress / completeSnapshot authenticate with the delivered token.

Untested Gaps

• No live production session past 24h has been observed after deploy; the substitutes above cover the contract.
• Old-agent behaviour beyond snapshots is unchanged by design (see Rollout).

Post-Mortem (Required for bug fix PRs)

What broke

Workspaces awake longer than 24h could no longer sleep. Every snapshot callback returned 401. Git credential fills and resource-history uploads failed too. From code, chat persistence would have silently stopped.

Root cause

signCallbackToken workspace tokens (24h, CALLBACK_TOKEN_EXPIRY_MS) were minted only at workspace create/restore. The heartbeat refresh (node-lifecycle.ts → health.go setCallbackToken) renews only the node token. Nothing ever renewed the workspace token.

Class of bug

A credential lifetime shorter than the session that depends on it, with no renewal path. This is a credential-lifecycle misalignment (rule 06, "Credential Lifecycle Alignment").

Why it wasn't caught

Sessions rarely stayed awake 24h until sleep started failing for other reasons (#2208/#2218). No test aged a workspace token past its expiry. The reporter's 401 handling deleted data silently instead of surfacing it.

Process fix included in this PR

• Injected-clock renewal tests that cross the refresh point and the expiry.
• Mutation-verified guards.
• Public security docs now state the callback token lifetime and renewal model (the docs said "minutes").

Reviewer	Status	Outcome
security-auditor (full diff, adversarial)	ADDRESSED	No new trust boundary or auth-model change. HIGH: no atomic per-principal limit on the renewal route (rule 28 §4). Fixed in 94fa750 with a D1 per-workspace limit, spent only after authentication. MEDIUM: Instant superseded generations could renew. Fixed in 94fa750: renewal is VM-only. LOW: move race on the renew path had no test. Added (unit). LOW: the snapshot relay sends its node proof in a custom header. Filed as backlog.

security-auditor (delta: fix commits)	PASS	Re-reviewed the fix commits adversarially. HIGH and MEDIUM verified fixed with real concurrency, real SQL and -race. No new trust boundary or auth-model change. LOW: the agent's renewal backoff ignores Retry-After on 429. Deferred: agent backoff (1m→30m) already bounds retries, each refused attempt costs 2 JWT verifications and 2 D1 operations, and a healthy agent never reaches the limit.
go-specialist	ADDRESSED	No CRITICAL/HIGH. MEDIUM: installed tokens were not identity-checked. Fixed in 9c76fcd. MEDIUM: no host-creation/propagation race test. Added; it found a real data race in workspace-token reads, fixed in 9c76fcd by locking every reader. MEDIUM: O(N) host scan per token change, about once per 12h per workspace; kept as a residual. LOW: test clock hardened. Other LOWs noted.
cloudflare-specialist	ADDRESSED	Approve. MEDIUM: the hibernate accept-wait loop minted a token per 1s poll. It now mints one per wait (94fa750, a60e139b1). LOW: rate limit fixed. LOW: doc pointer fixed.

LOW: no automated no-token-in-logs test. Added. Re-run after the fixes: PASS, all six checks, with test counts reproduced independently.
doc-sync-validator	ADDRESSED	Rule 54 now says a 401 for a replaceable credential pauses and resumes. security.md delete/stop/move wording and the api-reference renew entry are precise. AC3 conflict resolved (Instant renewal refused).
constitution-validator	PASS	No hardcoded values. The new limits, windows, ratios and timeouts are env-configurable with defaults.
env-validator	ADDRESSED	MEDIUM: the Go ratio clamp diverged from the API's. Aligned in 9c76fcd. LOW: .env.example entries added.

CodeRabbit Review Evidence (Required for agent-authored PRs)

• CodeRabbit requested after local review, staging if applicable, and CI gates passed
• Waited about 15 minutes, or up to about 45 minutes in total while a review CodeRabbit had started was still in progress
• Either CodeRabbit reviewed and no CodeRabbit feedback is unresolved, or it did not review and the observed outcome is recorded below

CodeRabbit Notes

• Requested 11:15:39Z with the coderabbit-review label (workflow run 37198129620, success) once CI was fully green on 6c48f48.
• Review arrived 11:27:28Z (COMMENTED, CHILL profile, 68 files): no actionable issues, 1 nitpick ("set Cache-Control: no-store on error responses too"). Valid. Fixed in 021ed7a: the header is set before anything can throw, asserted on the 401 and 429 paths, and mutation-verified. The nitpick sits in the review body, so there is no inline thread to resolve.
• The label stayed on for incremental reviews. Both later pushes (021ed7a at 11:29:58Z, and ef6e796 at 11:49:36Z after the rebase onto fix(api): bound sleep failures with a transcript-and-Git fallback #2223) got Review skipped: bot user not eligible for review, each after a full wait. Per rule 25 a skipped incremental review does not block. No CodeRabbit feedback is unresolved.

Constitution & Risk Check

• Principle XI: all new timeouts/ratios/waits/limits are env-configurable with Default* constants (WORKSPACE_CALLBACK_TOKEN_*, MSG_AUTH_RENEWAL_WAIT, RATE_LIMIT_CALLBACK_TOKEN_RENEWAL[_WINDOW_SECONDS]); the API reuses CALLBACK_TOKEN_EXPIRY_MS / CALLBACK_TOKEN_REFRESH_THRESHOLD_RATIO. Constitution validator: no violations.
• Risk 1: renewal makes workspace tokens live as long as the workspace stays active on its node. Mitigated by:
  • the dual proof (a token copied out of a devcontainer cannot renew itself);
  • binding and owner checks;
  • no renewal of expired tokens.
• Risk 2: old agents get snapshot-only healing (documented above).
• Risk 3: renewal adds a writer of the VM agent's workspace token. All readers now take the workspace lock, and the race test that found the unlocked reads is in the suite.

_{A rabbit checks the token’s age,
Then hops to renew it on the page.
New keys reach each waiting ear,
Queued notes stay safe while change draws near,
And snapshot hops bring tokens clear.}

62-70: 📐 Maintainability & Code Quality | 🔵 Trivial | 💤 Low value

Set Cache-Control: no-store on error responses too.

Line 69 sets Cache-Control: no-store only on the success path. A thrown AppError goes to the global error handler. That handler may build a new Response, and a header set through c.header may not reach it. Error bodies carry no token, so the practical risk is low. Set the header before the try block so that every variant uses the same policy.

Proposed change

+  c.header('Cache-Control', 'no-store');
   let result: WorkspaceCallbackTokenRenewalResult;
   try {
@@
-  // The response can carry a credential; no intermediary may store it.
-  c.header('Cache-Control', 'no-store');
   return c.json(result);

This follows the retrieved learning that security headers must be set on every response variant.

Move the Cache-Control: no-store header assignment before the try block in the
callback-token renewal handler, and remove the success-only assignment so both
success and error responses use the same cache policy.
