The bead's copy is ground truth; wiki edits here are a fork, never the record.*
Session opened 2026-07-09, my-claude-vscode (CV, Claude Fable 5), VSCode extension. Verbatim user prompts; assistant turns summarized with pointers.
**User (verbatim, opens the bead):** > start-bead wiki-facet-for-beads > lookup previous beads/chats on ward cunningham and federated wikis. also see current caddy and cloudflare tunnel to wiki.harvardviz.live hosted by this machine that is a federated wiki. see if you can make a handler in that wiki to have wiki facets for all my beads that make wiki pages and even support the discussion tabls with the relevant chats and notes and also the cross linking references in the wiki and maybe empty pages. note the wiki also affords editing the bead documents and associating media. and discussions (wiki TALK) around the bead **Assistant:** Loaded `.ai/START-HERE.md` and `.ai/beads.md`. Surveyed the commons: no prior Ward Cunningham bead; prior wiki-infrastructure bead found, [1057235a agentic-route-flip](https://redfish.acequia.io/guerin/.agents/1057235a-f575-4046-8c63-67475a33374d/) (2026-06-07, Caddy route reconciler for wiki.harvardviz.live). Inventoried the live stack (fedwiki as NSSM Windows service `wiki` on :3000, data `~/.wiki`, Caddy route, token-based Cloudflared tunnel service, external reachability verified via WebFetch): [notes/00-wiki-stack-inventory.md](../notes/00-wiki-stack-inventory.md). Read a sample page (`redfish-group`) to fix the page JSON shape; the markdown plugin with `wiki links` is in use. Designed the mapping ([notes/01-wiki-facet-design.md](../notes/01-wiki-facet-design.md)): `Bead: <Name>` page from about.md sections, `Talk: <Name>` companion page carrying chats/notes/media/dock, GUID cross-references as wiki links, dangling links as empty-page invitations, media by canonical URL, `Beads` index, provenance marker + backups so hand pages are never clobbered, denylist for off-commons beads. Edit-back designed as wiki-journal deltas deposited into the source bead's `uploads/` dock (phase 2). Open questions for Stephen: [notes/02-open-questions.md](../notes/02-open-questions.md). Built [skills/bead-wiki-facet.mjs](../skills/bead-wiki-facet.mjs) v0.1.0 and ran it against the live wiki: 189 beads collected (2 excluded by denylist), 379 pages written, 0 hand-made pages touched. Verified from external vantage (WebFetch): [beads.html](https://wiki.harvardviz.live/beads.html) index, [bead-wiki-facet-for-beads.html](https://wiki.harvardviz.live/bead-wiki-facet-for-beads.html) (all about.md sections render, Talk link works, no mojibake), [talk-wiki-facet-for-beads.html](https://wiki.harvardviz.live/talk-wiki-facet-for-beads.html) (chats/notes by session date with canonical links, dock invitation), [bead-ward-cunningham page JSON](https://wiki.harvardviz.live/bead-ward-cunningham.json) (cross-links to Ryan Damm and Wiki Facet For Beads pages detected from GUIDs in prose). **User (verbatim, mid-session):** > start person bead ward-cunningham. redfish team context **Assistant:** Started sibling person bead [639158e8 ward-cunningham](https://redfish.acequia.io/guerin/.agents/639158e8-0801-4c2a-8277-9bf271f7bc00/) per the [person-bead SOP](https://redfish.acequia.io/guerin/.agents/df4ee285-9bbc-43a3-99cb-bec57fb241c0/2026-07-08/notes/01-person-bead-sop.md): Wikipedia-cited CV, VCF (public info only, UID = bead URI), action-affordances note, redfish team context in about.md. Concept work on fedwiki-meets-acequia stays in this topical bead per SOP. **User (verbatim):** > does federated wiki support editing. even plain wiki entries. how do i enter that mode **Assistant:** Yes; double-click to edit is the core gesture, journal records everything. Two persistence modes on this install: anonymous edits fork into the visitor's browser localStorage (yellow halo; server rejects anonymous writes, verified 403 by probe); server-side owner edits require claiming the wiki, which is currently impossible: the site is unclaimed (`status/owner.json` absent) and the service (`wiki.cmd --port 3000 --data C:\Users\steph\.wiki`, wiki v0.38.6) runs the default legacy security whose Persona login is dead. Path offered: add `"security_type": "friends"` to `~/.wiki/config.json`, restart service, claim via the footer padlock immediately (first claimer owns it). `wiki-security-friends` and `wiki-security-passportjs` are both installed. Also flagged: owner edits to generated pages get backed up then overwritten on regeneration until phase-2 edit-back lands. **User (verbatim):** > we need to think about beads are exposed to the wiki based on requester tokens. we want to keep beads that require authenticated for the domain/origin are enforced **Assistant:** Probed all 191 local beads' canonical about.md from an anonymous vantage ([artifacts/anon-probe-2026-07-09.txt](../artifacts/anon-probe-2026-07-09.txt)): 138 public (200), 6 account-gated (302 to register-user.html), 47 unpublished (404); 53 restricted-or-unpublished beads were exposed on the public wiki. Shipped generator v0.2.0: origin-enforcement gate (anonymous fetch of canonical about.md, redirects not followed, fail closed on anything except 200) plus stale-page cleanup (100 pages backed up and removed; live 404s verified externally, public pages still 200). Design: [notes/03-token-scoped-exposure.md](../notes/03-token-scoped-exposure.md) (one static wiki host = one audience; tier table over the reserved wiki hostnames; phase-3 request-time facet with token pass-through). **User (verbatim):** > yes and think how we can provide oauth with our wellknown public key and a service to sign it **User (verbatim, immediately following):** > and issue tokens
**Assistant:** Design written: [notes/04-oauth-wellknown-signing.md](../notes/04-oauth-wellknown-signing.md). Self-sovereign trust root: per-parciante ES256 keypair, private key local to this machine, public key at `/.well-known/jwks.json` + `/.well-known/openid-configuration`; all verifiers (nephele origin, Caddy forward_auth for the team wiki tier, fedwiki via wiki-security-passportjs) verify offline against the same key. Signing service at `/auth/*`: create-token (attenuated sub-tokens, parent-chained, cascade revocation), authorize+token (OAuth2/OIDC face, PKCE), revoke. Tokens: JWT with sub = caller bead URI, path-grant scopes, short TTL, jti = CUID2 tokenId (the only thing that rides in ?token= URLs). Build order proposed (static JWKS first, signer, Caddy verifier + wiki.redfish.com tier, OIDC face, signed edit-back). Open questions left at the dock. **User (verbatim):** > in the federated wiki, .md and other docs facet to render as a wiki page too and not just an external link **Assistant:** Took this as the answer to open question 3. Shipped generator v0.3.0: every `.md` in a gated bead (root docs, notes, chats, markdown artifacts) renders as its own wiki page, titled `<Doc Title> (<Bead Name>)`, with a provenance header (kind, parent `Bead: <Name>`, canonical source link, session date), sections split on `##`/`---` with 6k-char chunking, and per-doc cross-link references; chat pages carry an immutability notice. Talk pages now list docs as internal `wiki links` with the canonical source beside each; `uploads/` deposits deliberately stay external links. Stale cleanup now removes any generator page not re-written by the current full run. Run: 138 gated beads, 1176 pages written. Verified live: the token-scoped-exposure note renders as a full wiki page with sections, provenance, and cross-links. Known quirks logged in notes/02 Q3 (relative links in doc prose, doubled README titles, non-md docs still external).
