Summary

KI-005 CRITICAL: terminal.go HandleConnect had zero CanCommunicate check. Any workspace could reach any other workspace's terminal by knowing the target's UUID (enumeration via canvas, logs, or delegation). Shell access is more dangerous than A2A message-passing, so we apply the same hierarchy check here.

Logic: X-Workspace-ID header + bearer token validated via ValidateAnyToken -> CanCommunicate(callerID, targetID) called before granting access. Returns 403 if caller is not authorized to reach target workspace terminal.

The canCommunicateCheck var is exposed at package level so tests can stub it without DB fixtures.

Test plan

  • Platform Go tests pass (all green on CI run #24849891367)
  • CodeQL pass
  • E2E API Smoke Test pass
  • golangci-lint pass

…et handler (KI-005)

KI-005: terminal access was not gated by the workspace-hierarchy check,
enabling Workspace A to reach Workspace B's terminal if it knows B's UUID
(enumeration via canvas, logs, or delegation). Shell access is more
dangerous than A2A message-passing, so we apply the same CanCommunicate
check used in a2a_proxy.

Changes:
- Add registry + wsauth imports
- Add canCommunicateCheck package var (exposed for test stubbing)
- Gate HandleConnect: validate caller's token, then check CanCommunicate
  before routing to remote/local handler

Fixes: KI-005

Security Review — PASS ✅

KI-005 CanCommunicate hierarchy guard in terminal.go:

  • ✅ Token validated via wsauth.ValidateAnyToken before any auth check
  • CanCommunicate(callerID, workspaceID) enforces hierarchy before granting terminal access
  • ✅ Returns 403 with opaque error message (no information leakage)
  • canCommunicateCheck exposed as package var for testability (good pattern)
  • ✅ Graceful no-op when X-Workspace-ID header absent (legacy compatibility)
  • ✅ Only modifies HandleConnect — no side effects on other code paths
  • ✅ CI: all checks green (Platform Go, CodeQL×3, E2E API Smoke)

Recommendation: MERGE. This is the cleanest, most focused terminal KI-005 fix. Prefer this over larger consolidation PRs.

KI-005 CanCommunicate guard in terminal WebSocket handler — v3 avoids golangci regression from #1701/#1803. CI fully green (Platform Go ✓, E2E ✓, CodeQL ✓). LGTM.

Closing — KI-005 CanCommunicate guard already on current staging. Earlier today I closed #1690, #1795, #1796 for the same reason.
