security: harden agent surface — vault_exec allow-list, SSRF, error hygiene

Stress-test remediation across MCP, CLI, and backend:

- primora_vault_exec rewritten as an allow-list (was deny-list):
  colon-form single-token commands bypassed it, leaking every vault
  secret; verbatim env-name injection allowed NODE_OPTIONS=--require
  host RCE. Now fixed read-mostly command set, arg/path deny regex,
  strict env-name grammar, loader-hook name blocklist. All prior
  bypasses verified denied; allowed commands still inject.
- SSRF: webhook/job URL validation now blocks cloud metadata IPs
  (169.254.169.254, fd00:ec2::254) inside the link-local allowance
  and non-canonical IP encodings (decimal/hex bare hosts) smuggled
  as "docker service names".
- Path params encodeURIComponent in all client consumers — encodeURI
  left ?#& intact, smuggling query segments through {name} params.
- primora_upload_object strict-validates contentBase64 — Buffer.from
  silently dropped invalid chars.
- MCP no-creds startup degrades instead of crashing mid-handshake.
- GET /api/v1/context — API-key self-discovery; fixes the CLI dead
  end (login --api-key validates the key + seeds org/project,
  use/context/whoami work under key auth).
- CLI: unknown commands / bare group exit 1 with hints; mri numeric
  coercion reversed via raw-argv restore (007 stays "007");
  login --json; orgs:rm / projects:rm / buckets:rm behind --yes;
  fetch-failed errors name the cause.
- Error hygiene: pgx.ErrNoRows -> 404, pgconn codes -> clean
  400/409 without SQLSTATE leaks, validator failures formatted,
  services.InputError maps input faults to 400 (webhook URL/event
  errors were 500s), presign on local driver -> 400.
- Webhook events accept wildcard patterns (*, ns.*, custom.*)
  matched via SQL LIKE — client-published events can be webhooked.

@@ -11,7 +11,7 @@ All notable changes to Primora. Format follows [Keep a Changelog](https://keepac
 - **`primora agent` credential broker** — wraps a child process with dummy tokens and a loopback base URL; the proxy attaches the real secret on the wire per grant (TTL, cap 3600 s). Presets: `anthropic`, `openai`, `openrouter`, `groq`, `deepseek`, `xai`, `github`, `npm`; `--upstream name=https://…` covers arbitrary Bearer APIs. Base-URL broker, not TLS MITM — tools must honor a base-URL override.
 - **`primora inject`** — runs a child process with vault secrets in its environment (`--all`, or `--env-file` templates containing `primora://NAME` refs). Nothing on disk, nothing in argv.
 - **`primora stack:*` operator group** — `up`, `down`, `status`, `logs [service]`, `pull`, `backup` wrap `docker compose` in `--dir` (default cwd). `stack up --vault` materializes `.env` from the vault for the duration of the run (refuses to clobber an existing `.env` without `--force`, which swaps and restores it). `stack backup` writes a `pg_dump -Fc` of the platform database to `./backups`.
-- **Vault MCP tools** (`@primora/mcp`) — `primora_vault_status`, `primora_vault_list` (metadata only — values are never returned), and `primora_vault_exec` which runs `primora` commands with a secret injected into the child environment; `vault`/`secrets`/`inject`/`agent`/`login`/`logout`/`use` and `keys:create` are denied so no response can carry a credential.
+- **Vault MCP tools** (`@primora/mcp`) — `primora_vault_status`, `primora_vault_list` (metadata only — values are never returned), and `primora_vault_exec` which runs `primora` commands with a secret injected into the child environment; `vault`/`secrets`/`inject`/`agent`/`login`/`logout`/`use` and `keys:create` are denied so no response can carry a credential. (Hardened to a strict allow-list — see Security.)
 - **Secrets Vault window in the desktop app** (`@primora/desktop`) — tray "Secrets Vault…" opens a dedicated window (`ui/vault.html`) covering init, timed unlock/lock with live countdown, secret list with copy-to-clipboard (values never displayed), add/delete, and `.env` import. IPC shells out to the `primora` binary (`PRIMORA_CLI` overrides), so desktop and terminal share one vault file and one crypto implementation; a missing CLI shows install guidance. Also reachable from the connect screen.
 - **Project vault — server-side secrets** (`core.project_secrets`, migration 00011) — per-project secrets encrypted AES-256-GCM at rest via the existing encryptor. API: `GET/PUT/DELETE /projects/:projectID/secrets[/:name]` plus `POST …/reveal`. Lists return metadata only (name, url, notes, timestamps); reveal decrypts explicitly and is audit-logged (`secret.set`/`secret.revealed`/`secret.deleted`). Scheduled-job payloads reference secrets as `secret://NAME`, resolved to plaintext at delivery — refs are stored, values are not; unresolved or unconfigured refs fail the run loudly.
 - **Vault page in the dashboard** — project secrets table with create/update, `.env` import, delete, and copy-to-clipboard reveal; plus a "This machine" card when running inside the desktop shell that drives the local vault through the same Tauri IPC commands as the vault window.
@@ -31,6 +31,26 @@ All notable changes to Primora. Format follows [Keep a Changelog](https://keepac
 - **Sandboxed function driver** — `FUNCTIONS_DRIVER=docker` runs every invoke in an ephemeral locked-down container: no network, read-only rootfs, 128 MiB memory, 0.5 CPU, 64 pids, non-root, all capabilities dropped. Source is injected via base64 env (no bind mount — works on Docker Desktop and remote daemons); timeout force-removes the container so nothing lingers. Verified live: code runs, network is unreachable inside, and deadline kills land.
 - **Client events + presence** — `POST /projects/:id/events` publishes client-authored events (`custom.*` namespace enforced — system types can't be spoofed) through the same fan-out as system events: realtime subscribers, matching webhooks, and `event_pattern` functions all fire. Realtime now tracks presence: `presence.update` {online} broadcasts on every subscribe/unsubscribe (stream-only — never reaches webhooks or functions), `GET …/realtime/presence` reads the count. Client SDK gains `publish()` and `presence()`; CLI gains `events:send`.
 - **Function triggers** (migration 00016) — three new ways to run a function, all through the same executor and run log. Scheduled jobs accept `function_id` instead of `url` (run status mirrors the exit code); inbound hooks gain `mode: "function"` — the received body becomes the function's stdin payload, acked immediately with the run recorded async; and `event_pattern` on a function (`document.*`, `*`, or an exact type) fires it detached whenever a matching domain event publishes — `{event, project_id, occurred_at, data}` as payload. Runs record trigger source: `manual`/`schedule`/`hook`/`event`. Dashboard: function event-trigger field, job target picker (URL or function), and inbound-hook function mode.
+- **`GET /api/v1/context`** — actor self-discovery: for API keys returns scopes, key prefix, and the resolved organization + project (id/slug/name). Fixes the API-key onboarding dead end: `primora login --api-key` now validates the key against the instance before saving and seeds org/project context automatically; `primora use`, `context`, and `whoami` work under API-key auth via this endpoint.
+- **CLI `orgs:rm` / `projects:rm` / `buckets:rm`** — destructive deletes gated behind `--yes` in non-interactive mode, interactive confirm otherwise. `buckets:rm` resolves id/slug/name.
+- **Webhook wildcard subscriptions** — `events` accepts `*`, `<namespace>.*`, and `custom.*` patterns, matched at dispatch time via SQL `LIKE` — the same semantics function `event_pattern` already used. Client-published `custom.*` events can now be webhooked.
+
+### Security
+
+- **`primora_vault_exec` rewritten as an allow-list** — the deny-list was bypassed by colon-form commands (`["secrets:get","X"]` as a single token evaded the pair check), exposing every vault secret; `--remote` variants revealed project secrets; and the `secret` param was used verbatim as an env name, allowing `NODE_OPTIONS=--require <file>` host code execution. Now only a fixed read-mostly command set runs (`whoami`, `context`, `orgs:list`, `projects:list`, `buckets:list`, `objects:list`, `documents:list`, `jobs:list`, `jobs:runs`, `audit:list`, `keys:list`, `events:send`), path/file flags and `..` args are rejected, injected env names must match `^[A-Z_][A-Z0-9_]{0,63}$`, and loader-hook names (`NODE_*`, `LD_*`, `DYLD_*`, `PATH`, `BASH*`, `PYTHON*`, `GIT_*`, `SSL_CERT*`, `XDG_*`, …) are blocked. Verified: every prior bypass denied, allowed commands still inject.
+- **SSRF hardening on webhook/job URLs** — cloud metadata endpoints (`169.254.169.254`, `fd00:ec2::254`) are excluded from the link-local/private allowance, and pure decimal/hex "bare hostnames" (`2130706433`, `0x7f000001` — non-canonical IP encodings of loopback) are no longer treated as Docker service names.
+- **Path params now `encodeURIComponent`** in all generated-client consumers (CLI, MCP, dashboard) — `encodeURI` left `?#&` intact, smuggling query segments through `{name}` params (e.g. `secrets/a?reveal=1`).
+- **Strict base64 in `primora_upload_object`** — `Buffer.from(b64)` silently drops invalid characters; `contentBase64` is now validated (whitespace-tolerant) so corrupt input can't silently store garbage bytes.
+- **MCP no-creds startup** — a missing config/API key previously threw inside `configureClient`, killing the process mid-handshake (protocol hang, stack on stderr). Startup now degrades: `initialize`/`tools/list` answer normally and every tool call returns the actionable error.
+
+### Fixed
+
+- **Silent CLI dispatch** — unknown commands, a bare `primora`, and group names without a verb exited 0 with no output. Now: unknown input errors with exit 1 (bare groups list their verbs), bare `primora` prints help.
+- **Arg-parser numeric coercion** — `cac`/`mri` coerced numeric-looking flag values (`--value "007"` → `7`, `--value ""` → `0`), corrupting secrets and keys. Parsed options are now re-read as raw strings from argv for every non-boolean flag; `--value 007` round-trips intact.
+- **`pgx.ErrNoRows` → 404** in the shared error mapper — missing resources returned raw "no rows in result set" 500s across all handlers.
+- **Structured error hygiene** — `pgconn.PgError` codes map to clean statuses (23505 → 409 "resource already exists", 23503 → 409, 22001/54000 → 400 "value too large", 22021 → 400) instead of leaking SQLSTATE/constraint names; validator failures report `field is required`/`field failed <tag> validation`; a new `services.InputError` type maps service-layer input failures to 400 (webhook URL/event-type errors were 500s). Presign on the local driver returns `presign_unsupported` 400.
+- **`fetch failed` polish** — connection failures report the cause code and suggest `primora context` instead of bare undici errors.
+- **`login --json`** — the flag now emits JSON on both the session and API-key paths.
