Summary

Post-RFC#637, canvas users send X-Workspace-ID (their identity workspace UUID). This caused A2A proxy requests from poll-mode workspaces to fail with 403 because rejected the caller — human users sit outside the workspace hierarchy.

Changes

  • now returns and detects canvas-user identity on tokenless workspaces via:
  • Same-origin canvas request ()
  • Admin bearer token ()
  • Org-level API token ()
  • bypasses when
  • endpoint applies the same bypass so canvas users can read schedule status
  • Added unit tests for admin-token and org-token canvas-user detection paths
  • Fixed call sites that were incorrectly passing 6 arguments to (which only takes 5)

Test plan

  • passes (all tests green)
  • New tests:
  • New tests:

Fixes #1674

Post-RFC#637, canvas users send X-Workspace-ID (their identity workspace
UUID). validateCallerToken now detects canvas/admin/org auth on a tokenless
workspace and returns isCanvasUser=true. The A2A proxy and ScheduleHealth
endpoint use this flag to bypass CanCommunicate, since human users sit
outside the workspace hierarchy.

Detection paths for tokenless workspaces:
- same-origin canvas request (middleware.IsSameOriginCanvas)
- Authorization: Bearer matching ADMIN_TOKEN
- Authorization: Bearer matching a live org_api_tokens row

Also fixes mcp_tools.go which was calling MCPHandler.proxyA2ARequest
(5 args) with an extra argument.

Fixes #1674

LGTM. Bypasses CanCommunicate for canvas-user id. 5-axis clean. Non-author 2nd-approve per CTO carve-out.

APPROVED after 5-axis review of 2266982.

Correctness: The change addresses the RFC#637 canvas-user identity path by distinguishing tokenless canvas/admin/org-token callers from legacy peer agents and bypassing CanCommunicate only for those human/canvas identities. The same handling is applied to schedule health, and server-side/internal proxy call sites explicitly pass false.

Robustness: Existing workspace-token binding remains intact for live workspace tokens; missing/invalid bound tokens still return 401. Legacy tokenless peer behavior is preserved. Tests cover legacy, missing/invalid/valid token paths plus admin-token and org-token canvas-user detection.

Security: System caller header forgery remains rejected. The bypass is limited to same-origin canvas, ADMIN_TOKEN, or validated org-level token, matching existing org-wide auth semantics; it does not allow arbitrary workspace-token replay.

Performance: Adds only token checks on the tokenless-caller path; no material hot-path concern.

Readability: The new boolean is explicit at call sites and comments explain the RFC#637 behavior.
