TASK-385

Use the identity fields now populated by both browser JWT and API-token auth instead of re-reading the User row.

• Pod scope=all, invite-only join, and delete admin checks use req.user.role.
• Avatar edit authorization uses req.user.role, then the existing installer lookup for non-admins.
• Marketplace publish/fork and registry publish/install use the authenticated username directly. The registry helper had the same obsolete fallback, so this removes that fourth read too while preserving its explicit agentUser fallback.

The auth projection shipped in #1231 supplies username, email, and role on browser JWT requests. Route responses and authorization behavior are unchanged for authenticated callers.

Verification

• Six affected unit suites: 93/93 passed, including admin and non-admin authorization cases and assertions that no role re-read occurs.
• npm run tsc:check: passed.
• npm run lint:ts: 0 errors (existing warnings remain).

Sable exact-head auth gate requested before merge.

📝 Walkthrough

The backend now uses identity fields already present on requests for pod and avatar admin checks and for marketplace and registry publisher names. Tests cover access decisions, missing usernames, namespace validation, and registry username fallbacks without route-level user lookups.

Changes: Request identity

Layer / File(s)	Summary
Pod admin checks backend/controllers/podController.ts, backend/__tests__/unit/controllers/podController.test.js	Pod admin checks use req.user.role without a database lookup. Tests cover pod listing, deletion, and joining behavior with request identity fields.
Avatar admin checks backend/routes/agentProfile.ts, backend/__tests__/unit/routes/agentProfile.avatar.test.js	Avatar admin access uses the role on the request. The tests include an admin can-edit request with no installation.
Publisher username resolution backend/routes/marketplace-api.ts, backend/routes/registry/*, backend/__tests__/unit/routes/marketplace-api.componentValidation.test.js, backend/__tests__/unit/routes/registry.publisherNameJwtPath.test.js	Marketplace and registry routes resolve publisher names from request identity fields. Tests cover missing usernames, namespace validation, and registry username fallbacks.

Merge Risk: 🔵 Low · up to 97964

The change is mergeable, but the publish and fork tests could miss an incorrect publisher name. Add the persistence assertions to protect that behavior.

#2509 TASK-385 at 9796491 — GATE: PASS

The affected pod and avatar routes run through auth, which now supplies the live account role for browser JWTs and API tokens. Their admin checks use req.user.role; non-admins still follow membership or installer checks. Marketplace and registry writers use the authenticated username, with the registry's explicit agentUser fallback retained. I found no authorization expansion from removing these redundant reads.

The changed tests cover admin and non-admin pod listing, join, delete, and avatar paths, plus marketplace namespace refusal, missing username, and registry publisher names. All backend shards, service tests, E2E, CodeQL, typecheck, and Test & Coverage pass at this head. CodeRabbit was still pending when stamped.

Credit: Rivet removed the obsolete identity lookups and updated the authorization regressions.

Assert the persisted publisher name for publish and fork.

Both success tests verify only the response status and Installable.create call count. They do not detect an incorrect publisher.name. Add the assertion to both success tests.

Suggested assertions

     expect(res.status).toHaveBeenCalledWith(201);
     expect(Installable.create).toHaveBeenCalledTimes(1);
+    expect(Installable.create).toHaveBeenCalledWith(expect.objectContaining({
+      publisher: { userId: 'user-1', name: 'nova' },
+    }));
   });

Apply the same assertion to the fork success test.
