Clinch Development Progress

This issue tracks what has been built and what remains to be implemented for Clinch, a lightweight self-hosted SSO portal for home labs.

✅ Completed Features

Core Infrastructure

  • Rails 8.1 application setup
  • Multi-database SQLite configuration (primary, cache, queue, cable)
  • Solid Cache, Queue, and Cable configured for development and production
  • Request ID logging in development
  • Proper .gitignore with .env protection
  • Environment variable template (.env.example)

Authentication & User Management

  • Rails 8 authentication generator integration
  • User model with secure password (bcrypt)
  • TOTP methods in User model (enable, verify, backup codes generation)
  • Session model with device tracking (device name, IP, last activity)
  • Remember me functionality
  • Session expiry logic
  • First-run setup (first user automatically becomes admin)
  • Signup page (only accessible when no users exist)
  • Sign in page with status checking
  • Token generation using generates_token_for (invitation, password reset, magic login)

Data Models

  • User model with admin, TOTP, and status fields
  • Session model with device tracking
  • Group model (flat structure, no hierarchies)
  • UserGroup join table
  • Application model (OIDC credentials, app types)
  • ApplicationGroup join table
  • OidcAuthorizationCode model
  • OidcAccessToken model

UI & Navigation

  • Sidebar-only navigation with Clinch branding
  • User email and admin badge in sidebar
  • Conditional layout (authenticated vs. public)
  • Mobile menu button
  • Flash message partial
  • Dashboard with user welcome and session stats
  • Admin quick actions on dashboard
  • Profile page with multiple sections

Profile Management

  • Email address update form
  • Password change form (basic - needs current password requirement)
  • TOTP section with placeholder buttons
  • Active sessions list with device info
  • Session revocation (revoke other sessions)
  • Protection against revoking current session

OpenID Connect (OIDC) Provider

  • Discovery Endpoint
    • /.well-known/openid-configuration with provider metadata
  • JWKS Endpoint
    • /.well-known/jwks.json - Public keys for JWT verification
  • Authorization Endpoint
    • /oauth/authorize - OAuth 2.0 authorization request
    • User consent page
    • Authorization code generation
    • Group-based access control
  • Token Endpoint
    • /oauth/token - Exchange authorization code for access/ID tokens
    • JWT signing for ID tokens (RS256)
    • Client authentication (Basic and POST)
  • UserInfo Endpoint
    • /oauth/userinfo - Return user claims
    • Support standard OIDC claims (sub, email, name, groups, admin)

Trusted-Header SSO (ForwardAuth)

  • Verification Endpoint
    • /api/verify - Validate session and return user info
    • Return 200 with headers for authenticated users
    • Return 401/403 for unauthenticated/unauthorized users
    • Support group-based access control
    • Header injection (Remote-User, Remote-Email, Remote-Groups, Remote-Admin)
    • Session validation and expiry checking
    • Application slug support (query param or X-Forwarded-Host)

Routes

  • Authentication routes (/signup, /signin, /signout)
  • Dashboard route (/)
  • Profile routes
  • Session management routes
  • OIDC routes (discovery, jwks, authorize, token, userinfo)
  • ForwardAuth routes (/api/verify)
  • Admin namespace routes (placeholder)

⏳ Remaining Features

Security Enhancements

  • Require current password for password changes (discussed, not implemented)
  • Password/TOTP requirements for:
    • Disabling 2FA
    • Viewing backup codes
    • Possibly changing email (to be decided)

TOTP Two-Factor Authentication

  • TOTP Enable Flow
    • TotpController (or extend ProfilesController)
    • QR code setup page with provisioning URI
    • TOTP verification during setup
    • One-time backup codes display
    • Backup codes download/print functionality
  • TOTP Disable Flow
    • Password verification before disabling
    • Confirmation modal/form
  • TOTP Login Flow
    • TOTP verification page during login
    • Redirect from SessionsController to TOTP verification
    • Backup code entry support
    • Rate limiting for failed attempts

Admin Interface

  • Admin::DashboardController
    • Quick actions for common tasks
    • Recent activity feed
    • System statistics
  • Admin::UsersController
    • List all users
    • Create/invite users
    • Edit user details
    • Activate/deactivate users
    • Promote/demote admin status
    • Force password reset
  • Admin::ApplicationsController
    • List all registered applications
    • Register new application
    • Edit application details
    • Configure allowed groups
    • Regenerate client credentials (OIDC)
    • Activate/deactivate applications
  • Admin::GroupsController
    • List all groups
    • Create new group
    • Edit group details
    • Manage group members
    • Delete groups

Future Enhancements

  • SAML Provider (planned for future)
  • Audit logging (track security events)
  • Email notifications (password resets, new device logins)
  • Rate limiting (prevent brute force attacks)
  • API tokens (for programmatic access)

Technical Stack

  • Framework: Rails 8.1
  • Database: SQLite (primary, cache, queue, cable)
  • Background Jobs: Solid Queue
  • Caching: Solid Cache
  • WebSockets: Solid Cable
  • Authentication: bcrypt, Rails 8 authentication generator
  • 2FA: rotp, rqrcode
  • OIDC: JWT (RS256), OAuth 2.0 authorization code flow
  • Styling: Tailwind CSS
  • Token Generation: generates_token_for (Rails 8)

Next Immediate Steps

Based on current discussion:

  1. ✨ Build Admin::UsersController (basic CRUD for user management)
  2. ✨ Build Admin::ApplicationsController (manage OIDC/ForwardAuth apps)
  3. ✨ Build Admin::GroupsController (manage groups and memberships)
  4. ✨ Improve TOTP UX (backup code download/print, better confirmation flows)

This issue will be updated as features are completed. Feel free to reference specific sections when creating focused feature issues.
