fix: auto-authenticate clients on overridden socket paths#3431
Merged
Conversation
When VELLUM_DAEMON_SOCKET is set (e.g. SSH-forwarded sockets), the CLI skips sending an auth message if no local session token is found. But the server had no corresponding logic — it always required auth within 5 seconds, causing an infinite reconnect loop. Now the server detects hasSocketOverride() and auto-authenticates incoming connections on the overridden path. Clients that DO have a token still send auth normally and it's harmlessly ignored.

Summary
When
VELLUM_DAEMON_SOCKETis set (e.g. SSH-forwarded sockets), the CLI skips sending anauthmessage if no local session token is found. However, the server had no corresponding logic — it always required auth within 5 seconds (AUTH_TIMEOUT_MS), causing an infinite reconnect loop.This fix adds server-side detection of
hasSocketOverride()inhandleConnection. When true, incoming connections are auto-authenticated immediately, bypassing the auth timeout. Clients that DO have a token still sendauthnormally, and the message is harmlessly ignored since the socket is already authenticated.Modified files:
