Follow-up to #3044. Root-caused why create_workspace wasn't landing on a fresh provision.

Bug

#3044 declared the management MCP with a bare name (molecule-platform-mcp). The box's boot-install (runtime-image entrypoint) only fetches gitea:// sources and silently skips everything else (*) skip unsupported source). A bare name parses to the local scheme (image-baked plugins only). Since molecule-ai-plugin-molecule-platform-mcp is a brand-new Gitea-only repo, the bare-name source was skipped → plugin never fetched → no molecule-platform MCP → no create_workspace.

Fix

Declare it with a pinned gitea:// source so the box fetches the repo:

• conciergePlatformMCPSource = "gitea://molecule-ai/molecule-ai-plugin-molecule-platform-mcp#main" (passed to seedTemplatePlugins). The #main pin is required: the gitea resolver rejects unpinned specs in production (PLUGIN_ALLOW_UNPINNED unset), so an unpinned source would record the declaration but fail to fetch → hollow.
• Split out conciergePlatformMCPName = "molecule-ai-plugin-molecule-platform-mcp" — the install name PluginNameFromSource derives (repo segment; the #ref does not affect it). The recordDeclaredPlugin entitlement gate matches on this derived name, so it keeps fail-closing for non-platform workspaces.

Tests updated: entitlement-gate test uses the derived name + gitea source. gofmt-clean.

SOP checklist

• Comprehensive testing performed: go build ./... clean; targeted unit tests green (TestRecordDeclaredPlugin_PrivilegedPluginEntitlement, concierge-provision); PluginNameFromSource("…#main") derivation verified empirically == conciergePlatformMCPName; two independent reviews (QA + security).
• Local-postgres E2E run: Handlers Postgres Integration (pull_request) green on head; this is a pure handler/const change (no schema/migration).
• Staging-smoke verified or pending: concierge boot verified on a fresh staging tenant after the ECR-allowlist fix — docker pull completes (0× 403), container Up, Registered with platform: 200. The create_workspace staging-smoke is scheduled post-merge (requires #3049 deployed to staging), then prod verify.
• Root-cause not symptom: fixed at the plugin declaration source (gitea:// + pinned ref) — the bare-name-skip mechanism — not a workaround.
• Five-Axis review walked: correctness / readability / architecture / security / performance — covered by the two reviews; the security pass found the unpinned-ref hollow-fetch and it was fixed (pin #main).
• No backwards-compat shim / dead code added: no shim; the old conciergePlatformMCPPlugin const was removed cleanly (no dangling refs); the source/name split is the real fix.
• Memory/saved-feedback consulted: feedback_no_such_thing_as_flakes (named the ECR-403 mechanism instead of dismissing the e2e as flaky), feedback_follow_dev_sop_phase1_evidence_first (SSM ground-truth on a live box), reference_local_reviewer_gitea_identities.

Verify after merge

Re-provision a fresh tenant → boot-install fetches gitea://…/molecule-ai-plugin-molecule-platform-mcp#main → MCPServerAdaptor wires molecule-platform → introspect create_workspace present. (Task #52.)

Follow-up to #3044. Root-caused why `create_workspace` wasn't landing on a fresh provision. ## Bug #3044 declared the management MCP with a **bare name** (`molecule-platform-mcp`).

fix(concierge): pin management-MCP plugin source to #main

core-devops added 1 commit 2026-06-19 02:19:03 +00:00

fix(concierge): pin management-MCP plugin source to #main ... 014af619d2

The gitea resolver rejects an unpinned spec in production
(PLUGIN_ALLOW_UNPINNED is unset by default), so an unpinned
conciergePlatformMCPSource would record the declaration but FAIL to
fetch at boot-install → no management MCP, no create_workspace. Pin
#main (matches the seo-all convention). The #ref does not affect
PluginNameFromSource, so conciergePlatformMCPName is unchanged
(verified: derives molecule-ai-plugin-molecule-platform-mcp).

Found in review (security pass) of #3049.

QA / correctness review — APPROVE

Independent review of the gitea:// plugin-source fix.

• PluginNameFromSource("gitea://molecule-ai/molecule-ai-plugin-molecule-platform-mcp#main") derives molecule-ai-plugin-molecule-platform-mcp == conciergePlatformMCPName (verified empirically, ref does not affect derivation).
• Real call path consistent: seedTemplatePlugins derives pluginName via PluginNameFromSource, passes to recordDeclaredPlugin, which keys the entitlement gate on the same derived name.
• Tests updated faithfully (privileged plugin allowed for kind=platform, refused for kind=workspace); no remaining references to the removed conciergePlatformMCPPlugin const.
• gofmt clean (fixed trailing-blank-line on the 3 files); go build ./... clean; targeted tests green.

Security review — APPROVE

Privileged management-MCP (create/delete workspaces). Adversarial pass on the name-keyed entitlement gate.

• Gate key == stored field: recordDeclaredPlugin compares pluginName == conciergePlatformMCPName and INSERTs that same pluginName into workspace_declared_plugins.plugin_name — no name/source split to exploit.
• All callers (seedTemplatePlugins, org_import) derive the name from the source via PluginNameFromSource; derivation is deterministic and == the gitea Fetch install key, so privileged code cannot install under a name the gate does not see. No realistic aliasing bypass (whole-repo install is forced to name==repo==gated name).
• Fail-closed on the kind DB read error: intact.
• Private authenticated fetch (canonical molecule-ai/... org, PAT via MOLECULE_TEMPLATE_REPO_TOKEN), not a public/typosquattable source.
• Flagged in review: source was unpinned → would be rejected at boot-install in prod (PLUGIN_ALLOW_UNPINNED unset) = hollow declaration. Resolved in commit 014af619 (pinned #main). Re-confirmed derived name unchanged.

APPROVED. Five-axis review complete on current head 014af619.

Correctness: the concierge now records a fetchable, pinned gitea:// source instead of the unsupported bare name. plugins.PluginNameFromSource derives molecule-ai-plugin-molecule-platform-mcp from that source, matching conciergePlatformMCPName and the workspace_declared_plugins/plugin entitlement path. The #main ref does not affect name derivation and is required for production fetches because unpinned Gitea sources are rejected unless PLUGIN_ALLOW_UNPINNED=true.

Security/robustness: recordDeclaredPlugin continues to fail-close on the derived privileged name for non-platform workspaces, while the kind=platform concierge path may declare it. No broadening of entitlement or user-controlled declaration path found. Performance/readability: constant split is clear and no runtime hot-path cost. Visible statuses are not fully green: template-delivery-e2e and some gate/SOP contexts are failing/pending, apparently outside this code delta and expected to be unblocked by #3055 per dispatch. No code blockers found.
