AdminAuth and WorkspaceAuth both carried the same 5-line
`ADMIN_TOKEN == "" && MOLECULE_ENV in {development, dev}` check. If a
third middleware ever needs the hatch — or if "dev mode" semantics
change (new env name, allowlist, runtime flag) — the previous shape
made N places to keep in sync and N places a security reviewer has to
audit.
This commit factors the predicate into a single `isDevModeFailOpen()`
helper in `internal/middleware/devmode.go`. Each call site becomes
if isDevModeFailOpen() { c.Next(); return }
`devmode.go` carries the full rationale (why the hatch exists, why
it's safe for SaaS) so call sites don't need to restate it.
### Also
- Moved the dev-mode env-value set to a package-level `devModeEnvValues`
map so adding aliases is one line. Matches the existing convention
(`handlers/admin_test_token.go`) of treating `MOLECULE_ENV != "production"`
as dev — but stays explicit about which values opt IN rather than
blanket-accepting everything non-prod.
- Added case-insensitive compare + trim on the env value so operators
don't have to remember exact casing.
- New `devmode_test.go` unit-tests the predicate directly: 6 cases
covering happy path, both opt-out signals (ADMIN_TOKEN, production
mode), short alias, case-insensitive + whitespace tolerance, and an
explicit negative-space sweep of arbitrary non-dev values
("staging", "preview", "test", "devel", "") to lock in that typos
don't silently enable the hatch.
Existing AdminAuth/WorkspaceAuth integration tests still exercise the
helper indirectly via HTTP — they pass unchanged, confirming the
behaviour is preserved.
### No behavioural change
Before and after this commit, `go test -race ./internal/middleware/`
reports identical results. Zero production surface change — this is a
pure refactor, but it collapses the dev-mode seam from two inline
blocks into one named predicate, which is the shape future
contributors (and security reviewers) can follow.

// Dev-mode escape hatch — factored out of AdminAuth + WorkspaceAuth so a
|
|
// future third caller (or a change to what "dev mode" means) touches one

|
|
// reviews: every `isDevModeFailOpen()` call is an intentional fail-open.
|
|
//
|
|
// Why the helper exists at all: on `go run ./cmd/server` the Canvas (at
|
|
// localhost:3000) calls the platform (at localhost:8080) cross-port. Both
|
|
// `isSameOriginCanvas` (Referer==Host) and the AdminAuth Tier-1 fail-open
|
|
// (no tokens in DB) close the moment the user creates their first
|
|
// workspace. Without this hatch the Canvas 401s on every /workspaces
|
|
// enumeration and every /workspaces/:id/* read until the operator sets
|
|
// `ADMIN_TOKEN` and rebuilds the Canvas bundle with a matching
|
|
// `NEXT_PUBLIC_ADMIN_TOKEN`. That's too much friction for a local smoke
|
|
// test — hence the hatch.
|
|
//
|
|
// Why it's safe for SaaS: hosted tenants are provisioned with both
|
|
// `ADMIN_TOKEN` (a random secret, checked by Tier-2 above) and
|
|
// `MOLECULE_ENV=production`. Either one being set makes this helper
|
|
// return false, so the fail-open branch is unreachable in production.

// the e2e test-token mint on `MOLECULE_ENV != "production"`.
