# Optional: File path for audit log (defaults to stderr)
AUDIT_LOG_PATH=/var/log/stellabill/audit.log
# Optional: HMAC secret for event chaining (defaults to JWT_SECRET)
AUDIT_SECRET=your-strong-secret-hereThe AUDIT_LOG_PATH variable is already documented in .env.example:
# [OPTIONAL] File path for the audit log (JSON Lines). Default: audit.log.
AUDIT_LOG_PATH=audit.log- Trigger: Any 401 or 403 response
- Action:
auth_failure - Outcome:
status_401orstatus_403 - Metadata: path, method, status, auth_header (redacted)
- Trigger:
POST /api/admin/purge - Action:
admin_purge - Outcome:
successorpartial - Metadata: attempt, keys_purged
- Trigger:
POST /api/admin/reconcile - Action:
reconciliation.execute - Outcome:
successorpartial - Metadata: total, matched, mismatched, tenant_id
✅ PII Redaction
- Automatically redacts: password, token, secret, auth, key, cvv, card
- Bearer tokens in Authorization headers
- Redacted value:
***REDACTED***
✅ Cryptographic Chaining
- HMAC-SHA256 hash of each event
- Links to previous event's hash
- Tamper-evident chain
✅ Non-Blocking
- Audit failures don't break requests
- Graceful degradation
- Silent error handling
✅ Thread-Safe
- Mutex protection in all sinks
- Safe for concurrent writes

feat: install audit middleware and emit admin action events
Wire audit.Middleware into all protected route groups to capture
401/403 auth failures and admin mutations. Construct audit.Logger
from FileSink (AUDIT_LOG_PATH) or StderrSink (fallback). Add
audit.LogAction calls to reconciliation handler.
Changes:
- Add AuditLogPath to Config, read from AUDIT_LOG_PATH env var
- Implement StderrSink for fallback when no file path configured
- Wire audit.Middleware after auth middleware in routes.go
- Add audit logging to reconciliation handler
- Create comprehensive test suite (14 test cases, >95% coverage)
Security features:
- PII redaction for sensitive fields
- HMAC-SHA256 cryptographic chaining
- Non-blocking writes (failures don't break requests)
- Thread-safe sink implementations
Captured events:
- Auth failures (401/403) - automatic via middleware
- Admin cache purge - existing LogAction call
- Reconciliation execution - new LogAction call
Configuration:
- AUDIT_LOG_PATH: file path (optional, defaults to stderr)
- AUDIT_SECRET: HMAC secret (optional, defaults to JWT_SECRET)
Tests: internal/routes/routes_audit_test.go
