Authorization Architecture

Two Axes

  1. Identity / role — who is the actor?
  2. Entitlement / feature — what is the tenant allowed to use on their plan?

Both must pass for protected business actions.

Platform & Workspace Roles (Core)

Role Scope
platform_admin Cross-tenant platform administration (bypass workspace role checks)
tenant_owner Full workspace control; required for complete onboarding
tenant_admin Manage branding/domain/members (as implemented)
tenant_editor Content/edit capabilities
tenant_viewer Read-only

Source of truth: core_platform_db.tenant_memberships (ADR-007).

Identity-Layer Roles

identity_access_db.tenant_memberships uses simpler roles (tenant_admin / tenant_member) for SSO listing — not operational authz.

Entitlement

Feature keys: {service_key}.{resource}.{action}
Example: accounting.invoice.create, payment.module.enabled, payment.requests.create

Check: POST /api/v1/tenants/{tenant_id}/features/check
Cached in Redis; custom tenant overrides beat plan defaults.

Payment module (Torbat Pay): Core L1 key payment.module.enabled. Payment service adds L2 bundles and L3 feature toggles in payment_db — see ADR-021 and payment-contracts.md. Payment must not compute Core plan entitlements locally.

API Guards (Core)

Configurable AUTH_REQUIRED. Dependencies such as require_authenticated, require_platform_admin, require_tenant_admin, MembershipService.ensure_role.

Future

Custom permission trees, invites, and finer RBAC are planned — track in module-registry.md and roadmap.md.
