Why

hyperpolymath/echidnabot#192 puts echidnabot's GraphQL API behind a bearer credential. Hypatia holds the route credential, which may only call submitProofObligation, for the repositories echidnabot lists. Without this PR, once #192 is deployed, Hypatia's obligations and re-queues get 401.

Separately, FleetDispatcher copied every obligation's claim and context into data/verisim/dispatch/pending.jsonl, which lives in a git-backed tree. Those lines were also dead letters: dispatch-runner.sh skips entries with no .strategy.

This is Wave 0, merged row 2, of the echidna proof-route plan (metadatastician/standards#1397).

What changes

  • EchidnabotObligation.auth_headers/0 reads HYPATIA_ECHIDNABOT_TOKEN, trimmed. When it is unset or blank, no header is sent. Both senders use it:
    • FleetDispatcher, on the per-bot HYPATIA_ECHIDNABOT_URL path only. The fleet coordinator never receives the credential.
    • LearningScheduler, on its re-queue.
  • Redirects are not followed (359f0a8, from review). FleetDispatcher.http_post/3 and LearningScheduler.http_post_json/3 now pass {:autoredirect, false}, so a 3xx comes back as {:error, {:http_status, 3xx}}.
    • Probed locally on OTP 25: for 307 and 308, :httpc re-POSTs the body to the Location host and reports that host's 2xx as success. For 301, 302 and 303 it re-sends as GET.
    • OTP 25 did not forward authorization. CodeRabbit reports that OTP releases before 27.3.4.13 do; the repo pins 27.3.4.4. I have not tested that claim.
  • For echidnabot, the manifest line records variables_sha256 (from EchidnabotObligation.variables_digest/1) instead of the variables. Other bots' manifest lines are unchanged.
  • docs/wiki-pages/Operations.md documents the new variable.

Tests

The capturing server in test/echidnabot_dispatch_test.exs now reports request headers too. A redirecting server was added. Six tests are new:

  • the credential reaches the per-bot path (whitespace trimmed);
  • no header is sent when the variable is blank;
  • the credential never reaches the fleet coordinator;
  • the re-queue sends the credential;
  • the dispatcher does not follow a 307, and the redirect target is never contacted;
  • the re-queue does not follow a 308.

The manifest test asserts that the line holds no claim or context. It checks the digest against a SHA-256 the test computes itself.

CI result on 359f0a8: Integration Tests runs mix test --include integration on OTP 27 / Elixir 1.17. It reported 2484 tests, 0 failures, 242 excluded; the excluded tests are the known :verisim_data tag. The log shows Live dispatch to echidnabot failed ({:http_status, 307}) for the redirect test. Every other check is green.

Locally: I could not run the suite. Ubuntu's Elixir 1.14 is too old for phoenix_template. The changed files parse, and mix format --check-formatted reports no diff in lines this PR touches.

Not done

  • Deployment wiring: setting HYPATIA_ECHIDNABOT_TOKEN wherever Hypatia runs, to the same value as echidnabot's ECHIDNABOT_API_ROUTE_TOKEN. That is an owner action.
  • Upgrading the pinned OTP past 27.3.4.13. That is a separate change beyond this PR.
  • Rate limiting, Kin gate and quarantine on the echidnabot dispatch path. These are later rows of the plan.

…of the manifest

echidnabot's GraphQL API now needs a bearer credential
(hyperpolymath/echidnabot#192). Hypatia holds the route credential, which
may only call submitProofObligation for repositories echidnabot lists.

- EchidnabotObligation.auth_headers/0 reads HYPATIA_ECHIDNABOT_TOKEN
  (trimmed; unset or blank sends no header) and both senders use it:
  FleetDispatcher on the per-bot HYPATIA_ECHIDNABOT_URL path only, never
  the fleet coordinator, and LearningScheduler's re-queue.
- The dispatch manifest line for echidnabot records variables_sha256
  instead of the variables. Claim and context can quote unpublished code,
  and data/verisim is a git-backed tree. Other bots are unchanged.
- Tests capture request headers: the credential reaches the per-bot path
  and the re-queue, is absent when the variable is blank, never reaches the
  fleet coordinator, and the manifest line holds no claim or context.

Plan: metadatastician/standards#1397 (Wave 0, merged row 2).

Summary

Summary by CodeRabbit

  • New Features
    • Echidnabot requests now support a bearer credential configured with HYPATIA_ECHIDNABOT_TOKEN. Blank or unset values send no authorization header.
    • Echidnabot manifest entries now store a SHA-256 digest of request variables instead of the variables themselves.
    • Re-queue requests to echidnabot also include the configured bearer credential.
  • Bug Fixes
    • Requests no longer follow HTTP redirects automatically.
  • Documentation
    • Added guidance on configuring the echidnabot route credential and its behaviour when unset or blank.

Requests to echidnabot can include an optional bearer credential. Echidnabot manifest records store a SHA-256 digest of variables instead of the variables themselves. The learning scheduler adds the credential to re-queue requests. The affected HTTP paths do not follow redirects.

Changes: Echidnabot request and manifest changes

Layer / File(s) Summary
Bearer credential request paths
lib/echidnabot_obligation.ex, lib/fleet_dispatcher.ex, lib/learning_scheduler.ex, docs/wiki-pages/Operations.md, test/echidnabot_dispatch_test.exs
The credential helper trims the configured token and returns no headers when it is blank or unset. The per-bot dispatcher and learning scheduler add the returned headers to requests and do not follow redirects. Tests cover the credential, request paths, and redirect behaviour. The operations documentation describes the setting.
Echidnabot manifest variable digest
lib/echidnabot_obligation.ex, lib/fleet_dispatcher.ex, test/echidnabot_dispatch_test.exs
Echidnabot manifest records store a SHA-256 digest of the JSON-encoded variables. Other bots retain their variables map. Tests check the digest and confirm that variables are omitted from the echidnabot record.

Explanation

The title names the echidnabot route credential and the removal of obligation text from the manifest. Both are changes in the changeset: auth_headers/0 sends the bearer token, and the manifest records variables_sha256 for echidnabot. The title covers the main change, though it does not mention the docs or tests. It is also a conventional-commit style title of 84 characters, which is slightly long.

Full details: Docstring Coverage

Explanation

Docstring coverage is 100.00% which is sufficient. The required threshold is 80.00%. Docstring coverage is scoped to functions touched by this diff with cyclomatic complexity of at least 2. Documentation-only edits and deletions within surviving functions are included; unchanged diff context and fully deleted functions are excluded. Analyzed 2 functions across 4 files. (1 skipped: 1 unsupported.)

Full details: Description check

Explanation

The pull request description directly explains the bearer authentication, redirect handling, manifest digest changes, documentation update, tests, and deployment scope. These points match the changeset.

… (v0.2.2) (#1402)

## What this changes

Follow-up to #1397 (merged). This is merged row 8 of that plan: it
records the owner's rulings from 2026-11-04 in
`docs/ULTRAPLAN-ECHIDNA-PROOF-ROUTE-2026-11-04.adoc`. The rulings were
given through the selector:
- **D-1:** the proof-route Idris2 ABI lives in a standards package
(`2-protocols/proof-route/`).
- **D-2:** the hybrid route order. Wave 0 first, then a draft-only pipe
to get numbers, then the ABI, then the pipe comes out of draft.
- **D-3:** `proven` and `proven-with-postulates` let a discharged
obligation reach HYP-01 `sound`. The axioms are listed beside the
verdict.

It also:
- links the first two Wave 0 PRs, hyperpolymath/echidnabot#192 and
hyperpolymath/hypatia#1010;
- corrects the planted-negative wording. When the route credential is
refused on an administrative field, the caller gets a GraphQL error with
code `FORBIDDEN` on HTTP 200, not HTTP 403. That is how echidnabot#192
behaves.

D-4 to D-9 stay open.

## Checks run locally

- `asciidoctor --failure-level WARN`: renders clean.
- `scripts/check-canonical-names.sh origin/main`: ok.

Compare the manifest digest with a SHA-256 value computed in the test.

The current helper returns a correct SHA-256 hex digest, so this test does not fail today. The gap is that the assertion uses the same helper that writes the manifest. A regression in variables_digest/1, such as a constant return value or a different algorithm, would still pass.

Compute the expected digest directly in the test:

…t POSTs

:httpc follows redirects by default. Probed on OTP 25: for 307/308 it
re-POSTs the body to the Location host and reports that host's 2xx as
success; for 301/302/303 it re-sends as GET. CodeRabbit reports that OTP
releases before 27.3.4.13 also forward the authorization header across
hosts (the repo pins 27.3.4.4). Either way the obligation's claim and
context, and possibly the route credential, could reach a host other
than HYPATIA_ECHIDNABOT_URL.

FleetDispatcher.http_post/3 and LearningScheduler.http_post_json/3 now
pass {:autoredirect, false}; a 3xx is reported as
{:error, {:http_status, 3xx}}. Two tests point the echidnabot URL at a
server that answers 307/308 and assert the redirect target is never
contacted.

The manifest digest test now computes the expected SHA-256 itself
instead of calling variables_digest/1.

…redirect (#1035)

## Summary

Erlang/OTP releases before 27.3.4.13 make `:httpc` resend the
`authorization` header to whatever host a redirect names. Hypatia pinned
27.3.4.4 in `mise.toml` and ran its test lanes on 27.0, and both are
affected.

I measured this on 2026-11-09 with a local probe: five redirect codes
(301, 302, 303, 307, 308), GET and POST, to another port and to another
host. That is 20 cross-origin cases per release:

| OTP | Cross-origin cases that carried the header |
|---|---|
| 27.0.1, 27.3.4.4, 27.3.4.12 | 20 of 20 |
| 27.3.4.13, 27.3.4.19, 28.5.0.8 | 0 of 20 |

The two echidnabot senders already set `autoredirect: false` (#1010).
This change covers every other `:httpc` caller through the runtime pin.

## Changes

- `mise.toml`: erlang 27.3.4.4 → 27.3.4.19, the latest 27 patch.
- `tests.yml` (three lanes) and `merge-orchestrate.yml`: `otp-version`
27.0 → 27.3.4.19, so the test lanes run the release that the runtime
pins.
- New `test/httpc_redirect_credentials_test.exs`:
- 10 cross-origin redirect cases, each of which must not see the header;
- a same-origin positive control, which must see it, so an empty result
means the runtime dropped the header rather than the harness missing it.

## Not changed

The 28.3 lanes in `ci.yml` and `rsr-oracle.yml` are deliberately kept
identical to the estate dogfood gate. 28.3 also forwards the header (and
28.3.3 as well; 28.5.0.8 does not). Moving them needs a coordinated
estate change across the dogfood gates and the standards reusable
workflows; it is left to a separate decision.

## Testing

- On Elixir 1.17.3 with OTP 27.3.4.19, the full suite passes: 2699
tests, 0 failures, 246 excluded. The new test file passes: 11 tests.
- On OTP 27.3.4.4, the new test fails all 10 cross-origin cases, and the
same-origin control passes.
- `mix format --check-formatted` is clean on the new file.
