A desktop client reading /api/software had no way to learn that a title costs
money. There was nothing in the response to say so, no way to sign in, and no
way to be told "you do not own this" — so a store with paid titles could only
hand the client a 403 at download time and let it guess why.
The fix belongs here rather than in the client. A client serves more than one
store, so anything it knows about a particular one has to arrive from that
store's own API; a rule compiled into the client is a rule that breaks every
other catalog it reads. Three seams, each following the storage adapter's
shape — documented contract, default that is byte for byte the old behaviour,
one config key to replace it:
- **access policy** — visible_software_scope / access_for / authorize_download.
Every catalog entry now carries an `access` block (gated, entitled, price,
purchaseUrl, webUrl) and both /api/download and /file/* ask before serving.
The vocabulary is deliberately generic: a word from one host's domain would
make every client that reads it specific to that host.
- **client sign-in** — the device authorization grant (RFC 8628), over the
host's own user model. The approval page stays the host's, because approving
needs a session and HTML. Tokens are ApplicationTokens with a `catalog`
scope, so publishing and reading stay separable.
- **service descriptor** — GET /api/service says what this deployment is and
whether it has a sign-in at all, which is how a client stops guessing.
With no policy and no subject class configured — every deployment today — the
API is unchanged: /api/auth/* answers 404, /api/service reports auth: null, and
the 187 pre-existing examples pass untouched.
A policy that raises is treated as a refusal, not permission. An artifact
served because the gatekeeper crashed is the one failure mode this must not
have, so a broken policy empties the catalog and denies the download.

The engine ships an ActiveJob based job (PipelineSyncJob), but a host's
application.rb does not necessarily require active_job/railtie - apps/api does
not. With eager loading off (development, test) nothing noticed; in production
WarpEngine::ApplicationJob blew up with "uninitialized constant
WarpEngine::ActiveJob", which is exactly what `rails zeitwerk:check` in
RAILS_ENV=production reported. An engine that ships jobs has to pull in the
framework it needs, so lib/warp_engine.rb requires the railtie.
Pre-existing on 0.1.0 as well; found while verifying that the 0.2.0 changes do
not break the portal. All three api-test steps are green now.
apps/api Gemfile.lock follows the 0.1.0 -> 0.2.0 path gem bump.
Two seams the hosts needed, both backward compatible.
Storage: artifacts are served through WarpEngine::Storage.adapter instead of
raw filesystem calls. The default :local adapter keeps the previous behaviour
byte for byte, including the path traversal guard. A host can now set
config.storage_adapter to any object answering file?/directory?/locate and
serve builds from an object store - FileService and /api/download both honour
a Location.redirect, so a signing adapter turns them into redirects.
DownloadService#create still returns an absolute path (nil when missing) for
existing callers; #locate is the new entry point that can also return a
redirect. Ingestion (upload, extraction, file manager) stays local for now.
Publish: PublishService emits ActiveSupport::Notifications
("warp_engine.publish") with platform/name/version/software/release, so hosts
can react to a new build without hanging callbacks on the models.
WarpEngine.instruments_publish? lets a host feature-detect and keep its
fallback for older engine versions.
- update, files and the 6 /api catalog controllers now live in the engine on
a new WarpEngine::ApiController base (same rescue/mime behavior as host)
- engine routes serve /update, /file/*path, /api/software*, /api/builds*,
/api/image/:id, /api/download at unchanged public paths via the root mount;
host routes keep only TTG endpoints (events, members, wiki, rss, swagger)
- /update secret comes from WarpEngine.config.update_secret and an
unconfigured secret now rejects every request (previously an empty
UPDATE_SECRET env accepted empty secrets)
- apipie-rails is an engine dependency (DSL in engine controllers); dummy app
configures apipie with validation off, mirroring the host
- engine request specs: catalog controller specs moved from host plus new
/update auth contract spec
Verified: engine suite 53 green, host suite 6 green, /api/software and
/api/builds byte-identical to baselines, /update 401/400 behavior intact,
admin and TTG endpoints OK.

- all catalog services (update/software/highlighted/builds/file/file-manager/
download/image + SoftwareResponseBuilder), the SoftwareUpdater platform
services and their concerns, Blueprinter serializers (incl. TimestampFields)
and the 4 DTOs now live in the engine under WarpEngine::
- constantize dispatch strings use absolute names
(WarpEngine::SoftwareUpdater::<Platform>Service)
- container paths read from WarpEngine.config everywhere (FileService,
DownloadService, FileManagerService, ArchiveExtraction, ReleaseSerializer
path rewriting); FileManagerService base path is now lazy
- engine requires blueprinter itself; gemspec declares blueprinter + rubyzip
- engine test suite: spec/dummy app (mysql warp_engine_test, catalog-only
schema), rails_helper with engine-local factories; catalog model/service
specs and factories moved from the host
- host suite keeps TTG specs and loads catalog factories from the engine
Verified: engine suite 40 green, host suite 14 green, /api/software and
/api/builds byte-identical to baselines, admin OK.

- libs/ruby/warp_engine: gemspec, WarpEngine::Engine (isolate_namespace with
empty table_name_prefix), WarpEngine.configure surface (container paths,
update_secret, image_owners), empty engine routes
- host Gemfile: path gem; host routes: mount WarpEngine::Engine => "/" as
the last entry so host routes always win
- docker: api build context moved to repo root so libs/ is visible at
bundle-install time; ./libs:/libs runtime mount; root .dockerignore to keep
data/ and node_modules out of the build context
