feat(auth): add pluggable TokenStore for server-side refresh tokens (#215) - #323
feat(auth): add pluggable TokenStore for server-side refresh tokens (#215)#323torkian wants to merge 7 commits into
Conversation
Foundational piece for server-side token refresh on long-running async jobs (issue NVIDIA-AI-Blueprints#215). Async deep-research jobs routinely outlive the ID token captured at submission, so authenticated tool calls 401 mid-run; the fix is to hold the user's refresh token server-side and refresh on demand. This change lands only the storage abstraction that the rest of that work (login callback, refresh-on-demand in get_auth_token) builds on, and that issue NVIDIA-AI-Blueprints#217's MCPTokenStore sibling can reuse. - TokenStore: a minimal pluggable ABC (put/get/delete by session id). - SqlTokenStore: default implementation over the job-store database (NAT_JOB_STORE_DB_URL), schema (session_id, user_sub, refresh_token_encrypted, id/refresh expiries, updated_at). Blocking DB calls run in a thread executor. - TokenCipher: AES-256-GCM with a versioned envelope, keyed by a separate AIQ_TOKEN_ENCRYPTION_KEY (mirrors AIQ_CONTENT_ENCRYPTION_KEY) and bound to the session id via AAD so ciphertext rows can't be swapped. - get_token_store(): returns None when AIQ_TOKEN_ENCRYPTION_KEY is unset, so refresh tokens are never written in plaintext and callers fall back to today's behavior — a graceful skip, not a crash or a leak. This is purely additive: nothing wires it into the live auth flow yet, so no existing behavior changes. 31 auth tests pass (cipher round-trip, AAD binding incl. a DB-row swap attack, encryption-at-rest, upsert, factory gating); ruff clean. Signed-off-by: Torkian <torkian@mac.com>
Security hardening on the TokenStore foundation: - TokenCipher.decrypt now validates envelope metadata before use: rejects a tampered algorithm label (prevents a silent downgrade on an otherwise valid ciphertext), non-string or missing nonce/ct fields (previously escaped as a raw TypeError), and a wrong-length nonce. - SqlTokenStore upsert is now a single dialect-native INSERT ... ON CONFLICT DO UPDATE (SQLite/Postgres) instead of delete-then-insert, so concurrent writers for the same session id can't race the gap. - get_token_store distinguishes an unset key (feature disabled -> None, graceful) from a key that is set but invalid (raises TokenEncryptionConfigError) so a misconfigured deployment fails loudly instead of silently degrading to no-op storage. It also caches the store per database URL to reuse one engine. Tests: isolated coverage for the algorithm-downgrade and non-string-field guards (each fails if its guard is removed), the fail-loud invalid-key path, and store caching; switched temp DBs from mktemp to a securely created directory. 39 auth tests pass; ruff clean. Signed-off-by: Torkian <torkian@mac.com>
SqlTokenStore rebuilt the Table with autoload_with=engine on every put/ get/delete, issuing a synchronous schema-reflection round-trip per call. Define the schema once in __init__ (_build_schema) and reuse self._table for all operations; _ensure_table now creates from that same metadata. No behavior change; 26 auth-store/cipher tests pass, ruff clean. Signed-off-by: Torkian <torkian@mac.com>

Estimated code review effort: 4 (Complex) | ~60 minutes Merge Risk: 🟡 Moderate · up to The new token-store foundation introduces bounded runtime and correctness risks: schema setup can block async work, in-memory SQLite may fail across worker threads, and stored expiry timestamps may lose timezone information and later cause comparison errors.

- Around line 161-172: The upsert logic in token_store.py duplicates the same
stmt and update_cols construction in both the postgres and sqlite branches.
Refactor the code around the insert factory in the token store upsert path so
the dialect-specific insert selection is separated from the shared
on_conflict_do_update setup, reusing the same update_cols and stmt-building flow
for both branches.

Move schema initialization off the event loop.
SqlTokenStore.__init__ calls _ensure_table() synchronously, and get_token_store() constructs it synchronously on a cache miss. Database inspection or DDL can block the event loop when an async authentication path calls the factory. Initialize the schema during startup or dispatch it through the executor.

SQLAlchemy 2.0 SQLite in-memory database SingletonThreadPool StaticPool check_same_thread documentation
💡 Result:
In SQLAlchemy 2.0, an SQLite:memory: database exists only within the scope of a single DBAPI connection [1][2]. Because of this, handling multithreaded access or connection pooling requires specific configurations [1]. SingletonThreadPool and StaticPool SingletonThreadPool is the default pool used by the SQLAlchemy SQLite dialect when a:memory: database is specified [2][3]. It maintains one connection per thread, meaning each thread accesses its own independent in-memory database [2][3]. StaticPool is an alternative that maintains a single, global connection shared across all threads [2][4]. It is primarily intended for use in single-threaded test suites [1]. Because it shares one connection, all threads share the same database state; consequently, operations like ROLLBACK in one session can interfere with others [1]. check_same_thread Configuration The SQLite DBAPI (pysqlite) enforces a threading check by default that prohibits sharing connections across threads [2][3]. - When using SingletonThreadPool (default for:memory:), check_same_thread defaults to True [2][3]. - When using StaticPool to share a connection across threads, you must explicitly set check_same_thread=False in the connect_args to override this restriction [2]. Recommended Approach for Concurrency For concurrent workloads requiring a shared:memory: database, SQLAlchemy recommends using SQLite's shared-cache mode rather than relying on custom pooling [1][4]. This is achieved by using a URI connection string: sqlite:///:memory:?cache=shared&uri=true [1][3]. When this URI is used, the dialect treats it as a file-based database, automatically uses QueuePool, and defaults check_same_thread to False, allowing multiple connections to access the same in-memory database safely with independent transaction states [1][3].

Use StaticPool for in-memory SQLite.
For sqlite:///:memory:, SQLAlchemy’s default SingletonThreadPool gives each thread a separate database. _ensure_table() creates auth_token_store on the constructor thread, while CRUD runs in executor threads. CRUD can therefore fail with no such table: auth_token_store. Configure StaticPool with check_same_thread=False for in-memory SQLite and add an asynchronous CRUD test.

SQLAlchemy 2.0 SQLite DateTime(timezone=True) timezone information round trip official documentation
💡 Result:
In SQLAlchemy 2.0, the DateTime(timezone=True) type does not provide native timezone support when used with SQLite [1][2]. Because SQLite lacks a native datetime type and stores these values as ISO-formatted strings [1][3], it does not natively track or persist timezone information [4]. When you use DateTime(timezone=True) with the SQLite dialect, SQLAlchemy does not automatically perform timezone conversion or persist timezone offsets in the database string [4]. If you need to handle timezone-aware datetimes with SQLite, the official recommendation is to either: 1. Manually coerce timezone-aware datetime objects to UTC before storing them and convert them back to your target timezone upon retrieval [4]. 2. Use a custom type or alternative storage strategy, such as storing the timezone offset as a separate column or using a custom type to handle the serialization and deserialization logic [4]. The timezone=True flag in SQLAlchemy is generally intended for database backends that natively support timezone-aware timestamps (like PostgreSQL) [5][4]. Using this flag on SQLite will not result in error-free "round-tripping" of timezone data [4]. If you require precise timezone handling, custom implementation or ensuring all data is normalized to UTC within your application logic before interacting with the database is required [4].

Preserve timezone information in SQLite.
SQLite does not preserve timezone information for SQLAlchemy DateTime(timezone=True). _get_sync returns these values without normalization, so get() may return naive datetimes for UTC-aware inputs. Comparisons with datetime.now(UTC) may then raise TypeError. Normalize values to UTC on write and restore UTC on SQLite reads, or store epoch values. Extend the round-trip test to assert timestamp equality and tzinfo.

Hi @torkian, thank you for your contribution. On reviewing it, here are my thoughts: While issue #215 is valid, there is no reproduction, incident data, and so on. We also mitigate this currently by proactively refreshing NextAuth sessions before expiry. Additionally, this PR doesn't wire anything into production. Other issues:
For these reasons, we will be closing this PR. Please raise a follow-up if you continue to see #215. Thanks! |

Thanks for the thorough review, @cdgamarose-nv — the critique is fair and I agree with closing this. A few points I want to acknowledge directly:
Given all that, closing is the right call — I'd rather not land an additive scaffold that breaks on the supported DB URL and doesn't finish the job. If #215 resurfaces past the proactive NextAuth refresh, I'll raise a fresh, properly-scoped PR with repro/incident data — a full-token record, async-safe engine + URL normalization, and a distributed single-flight lease for refresh. Appreciate the detailed feedback; it's genuinely useful. |

Part of #215. Foundation only — additive, no behavior change.
Summary
Async deep-research jobs routinely outlive the ID token captured at submission, so authenticated tool calls inside the worker 401 mid-run and the job fails. The fix (issue #215) is to hold the user's refresh token server-side and refresh on demand. Per @AjayThorve's request on the issue ("land the
TokenStoreabstraction first; #217 adds anMCPTokenStoresibling"), this PR lands only the storage foundation that the rest of that work — and #217's per-user MCP auth — will build on. Nothing is wired into the live auth flow yet, so no existing behavior changes.What's included
TokenStore— a minimal pluggable ABC (put/get/deletekeyed by session id), so anMCPTokenStoresibling keyed by(user_sub, mcp_server_id)can reuse the shape.SqlTokenStore— default implementation over the job-store database (NAT_JOB_STORE_DB_URL). Schema:(session_id, user_sub, refresh_token_encrypted, id_token_expires_at, refresh_token_expires_at, updated_at). Writes use a single dialect-nativeINSERT ... ON CONFLICT DO UPDATE(SQLite/Postgres) so concurrent writers for the same session can't race; blocking DB calls run off the event loop; the table is defined once (no per-op reflection).TokenCipher— AES-256-GCM with a versioned, self-describing envelope, keyed by a separateAIQ_TOKEN_ENCRYPTION_KEY(mirroringAIQ_CONTENT_ENCRYPTION_KEY, so token and content encryption rotate independently) and AAD-bound to the session id so a ciphertext row can't be moved to another session. Decrypt validates the envelope (algorithm label, field types, nonce length) before use.get_token_store()— returnsNonewhenAIQ_TOKEN_ENCRYPTION_KEYis unset (feature disabled → today's freeze-at-submission behavior, a graceful skip, never plaintext), and raisesTokenEncryptionConfigErrorwhen the key is set-but-invalid so a misconfig fails loudly. Caches the store per database URL.Deliberately out of scope (follow-ups)
