Details

19. Run the documented Docker commands on macOS and fix whatever misbehaves.

Needs a Mac. Two suspects, both from --user "$(id -u):$(id -g)": a macOS id -g is 20, which is dialout inside the noble image, and Docker Desktop remaps bind-mount ownership in its VM.

16. Decide whether the single Keto Resource namespace splits into per-domain namespaces.

Ory's own examples model Shift, Document and so on. One global Resource bucket is the project's "no catch-all names" rule applied to namespaces.

48. Correct the Keto tuple in the login.ts and bootstrap.ts comments to the granted relation the code writes.

login.ts:40 and bootstrap.ts:31 write Permission:<name>#members@user:<id>; the code, the OPL file and the README use granted, and members is the Group relation. Raised by every comprehension seat that read them.

51. Move the test-only tooling out of the runtime folders src/ui/ and src/http/, and keep the README file map true.

src/ui/stylesheet-floor.ts imports a devDependency and only its test uses it; src/http/app-harness.ts is a test fixture. Both sit beside runtime modules, and the README file map omits them. Seats also named src/http/builtin-routes.ts, which holds no routes.

52. Make positive in stylesheet-floor.ts readable without tracing it by hand, and state why a custom property's value is checked.

Most scoring seats named positive (:119) with walk and property as opaque. Split it into named steps, say in the header that an unsupported value in a custom property blanks every var() that reads it, and keep the README's "Two browser floors" pointing here. It is the home of the 3am answer.

53. Say at codeFlowSubmit which branches of flowFailure can fire there.

submitFlow throws only on a 5xx, so on the submit path only the 503 branch can fire; three seats found that by opening a second file.

49. Render the admin's "group already exists" refusal from the catalog, in every locale.

examples/plugins/admin/admin-groups.ts returns the English string "A group with that name already exists." where AGENTS.md puts every user-visible string in a catalog (admin/i18n/en-US.ts, then sv-SE.ts).

6. Warn at discovery when a route or nav node gates on a permission no plugin declares.

Declaring stays optional on purpose, but the picker is built from declarations only, so such a route is ungrantable from the GUI and answers a permanent 403. A warning, not an error.

23. Give list pages one view-model helper from query to pagination, instead of ~40 hand-written lines each.

Every list screen bridges parseListQuery/paginate to the partials by hand. At minimum a buildPaginationModel(page, hrefFor). Exported through the barrel, so it is contract surface.

The host versions every /public/ href it renders (src/http/static.ts): the shell's stylesheets, favicon and logo, and a plugin's styles. A file a plugin's own markup links, such as fastjira's board-drag.js, keeps an unversioned URL and is revalidated every five minutes. Offering a way — assetHref documented as a view local, a ctx.assetHref, or a scripts slot in the shell — adds to the plugin API, hence a minor. Pick one with the plugin authors' panel, then document it in README → Reserved view locals.

47. Refuse the plugin id error, and make the drift guard cover the /error mount.

/error is Kratos' error sink (src/auth/routes.ts), and plugin routes resolve before built-ins, so a plugin with id error and a / route shadows it. Add error to RESERVED_PLUGIN_IDS and to the mount list in plugin.test.ts's drift guard, whose comment claims every built-in is derived.

28. Let a plugin add entries to the profile menu through the plugin API.

The profile dropdown stays a dropdown: Sign out is its only entry today, and it will gain more. views/partials/shell.ejs hand-rolls it (AGENTS.md → UI, the dropdown rule), so the entries need a manifest field that discovery checks, gated like a nav node.

50. Split handleRequest into named stages, so each fits the 50-line limit and the stage order is written once.

The hardest place in all eight scoring seats of PR #200: src/http/app.ts handleRequest is about 165 lines at complexity 43, in createApp's closure, and the order of its stages (headers, static, canonical host, locale, session, CSRF, contexts, hooks, dispatch) is carried by comments only. Remove it from grandfathered in src/function-limits.test.ts. Behaviour must not change; app-*.test.ts is the net. Ships alone (R 5).

54. List the setting conflict kind in the README's Conflict rules table.

findConflicts (plugin.ts) emits kind: "setting" at error level and the table in README → Conflict rules omits it.

2. Rename the admin example plugin to a name that says what it administers.

Candidates: auth-admin, users-groups-admin. The id is also the mount path, so the compose files, E2E stacks and README move with it.

5. List grants that no installed plugin declares, with a remove action.

grantDiff never revokes an undeclared name, and nothing shows one either, so it can't be audited or cleaned, and reinstalling its plugin silently reactivates access nobody remembers granting.

41. Apply a permission save as one Keto call, so it cannot stop part-way.

applyGrants writes and deletes one tuple per request and reports a partial save when one fails. Check first: Keto documents PATCH /admin/relation-tuples, which should apply a list of inserts and deletes in one transaction; confirm that against the Keto version ory/ pins. If so, add the call to KetoClient, which is contract surface (@plainpages/plugin-api) and so needs 0.5.0, and the partial-failure path in the admin example can go.

14. Drop a double-clicked duplicate submit, with no client-side JavaScript.

A second identical POST is expected from a non-technical user, and today creates two users, mints two recovery codes, or registers two OAuth2 clients. It must not break a legitimately repeatable action. Sketch: a CSS-only affordance so the second click has nothing to hit, plus the host recognising a duplicate (same session, route and payload within a short window), logging and dropping it. Open: what identifies "the same submission" (a one-time token minted into each form beats hashing the payload), the window, where the record lives given the host is stateless, and how a plugin declares a route repeatable.
