Conversation
Adds StudioConfig to Mastra configuration allowing separate authentication providers for Studio UI (internal team) vs API (external customers). Key changes: - Add StudioConfig type with auth, rbac, and fga options - Add mastra.getStudio() accessor for studio-specific config - Add MASTRA_AUTH_MODE_KEY constant to track which auth provider was used - Update checkRouteAuth() to route requests based on x-mastra-client-type header - Make all auth routes studio-aware (/auth/capabilities, /auth/me, SSO, etc.) - Update all server adapters (Hono, Express, Fastify, Koa) to support dual auth Security: When studio header is present but studio.auth is not configured, returns 401 instead of falling back to server auth (prevents header spoofing). Co-Authored-By: Mastra Code (anthropic/claude-opus-4-5) <noreply@mastra.ai>

In @.claude/skills/auth-refactor-test/results/initial-findings.md:
- Around line 4-127: The report was generated against the wrong branch
(wardpeet/auth-rework-takeover / PR `#17142`) instead of the target PR (`#17722`);
regenerate the runtime and build verification against the correct branch/PR and
update the findings to explicitly verify Studio-vs-API auth routing and
permission behavior (e.g., test AUTH_PROVIDER flows, Studio UI login, API token
vs session routing, and FGA/RBAC enforcement across packages/_internals/auth,
auth/workos/src/auth-provider.ts, auth/workos/src/fga-provider.ts and core
re-exports in packages/core/src/auth/); ensure logs mention the exact branch/PR
under test and include pass/fail outcomes for each scenario so the report can be
used as validation evidence for PR `#17722`.
In @.claude/skills/auth-refactor-test/results/SUMMARY.md:
- Around line 3-59: The summary document is stale (it reports PR `#17142`) and
must be regenerated for the active PR (`#17722`): rerun the dual-auth feature
tests and update the summary to reflect the correct Branch/Date/Tester, Test
Results, and Conclusion; ensure the regenerated report explicitly includes the
required auth-path validations — check Studio header handling, route auth
defaults and enforcement, and RBAC behavior by mode (e.g., admin/viewer roles
under each auth mode) — and mark any blocked providers (and migration errors)
separately so the conclusions and recommendations apply to PR `#17722`.
In @.claude/skills/auth-refactor-test/SKILL.md:
- Around line 3-93: Update the test plan in SKILL.md to target PR `#17722` (dual
Studio/API auth) instead of `#17142` and add explicit dual-auth assertions: verify
Studio header behavior (presence/validation of X-Stagehand-Studio or similar
header used by Studio flows), ensure the /api auth registration path and runtime
auth checks are exercised (auth registration functions and middleware invoked
for API routes), and add tests for custom route auth defaults and middleware
fallback behavior (examples/agent routes, AUTH_PROVIDER variations), plus update
Success Criteria and Testing Commands to include Stagehand-driven Studio header
flows and API vs Studio auth separation.
In `@packages/core/src/mastra/index.ts`:
- Around line 316-326: Update the Studio docstring for the studio-specific auth
block to accurately describe the fallback behavior: state that if studio.auth is
not configured the server will reject requests that include the
x-mastra-client-type: studio header (returning 401) rather than making Studio
publicly accessible, and note that an unauthenticated "no auth required" mode is
only for local/dev use when explicitly enabled; reference the studio.auth and
server.auth symbols and update the comment above the Studio auth configuration
in the mastra/index.ts docblock accordingly.
In `@packages/server/src/server/handlers/auth.ts`:
- Around line 102-104: The isStudioRequest function performs a case-sensitive
comparison on request.headers.get('x-mastra-client-type'), causing inconsistent
routing; update isStudioRequest to normalize the header value (e.g., safely read
the header, toLowerCase() it or use case-insensitive comparison) and handle
null/undefined before comparing to 'studio' so it matches the adapter-level
classification consistently.
In `@packages/server/src/server/server-adapter/index.ts`:
- Around line 474-497: getEffectiveAuthConfig currently treats any request with
isStudioClientTypeHeader(MASTRA_CLIENT_TYPE_HEADER) as allowed to bypass auth
when mastra.getStudio()?.auth is missing, enabling unauthenticated access;
update getEffectiveAuthConfig to never return null for studio-classified
requests unconditionally—instead, if studio auth is missing only allow a
development bypass when a gated flag (e.g., process.env.MASTRA_DEV === 'true')
is set and the route is marked as non-protected, otherwise require server-side
auth or return an explicit authMode that forces authentication; reference
getEffectiveAuthConfig, isStudioClientTypeHeader, mastra.getStudio()?.auth,
mastra.getServer()?.auth and ensure the later auth-check logic (the code that
interprets null at the auth-decision site) treats the new explicit values
correctly so headers alone cannot bypass protected routes.
In `@server-adapters/express/src/index.ts`:
- Around line 549-554: The code contains a stale call and duplicate declaration
of permissionError that reads userPermissions before it's declared; remove the
earlier lines that call this.checkRoutePermission(route, userPermissions,
hasPermission) and the duplicate declaration so only the correct call remains:
compute userPermissions from requestContext
(requestContext.get('userPermissions')) and then call
this.checkRoutePermission(route, userPermissions, hasPermission, requestContext)
once. Do the same cleanup for the duplicate block handling custom routes (the
block around loadHasPermission / userPermissions / checkRoutePermission) so
there are no out-of-order reads or duplicate permissionError declarations.
- Around line 547-548: The code currently gates RBAC checks on
this.mastra.getServer()?.auth which prevents Studio-only requests from running
requiresPermission; update the logic in the blocks around the checks (the ones
currently using this.mastra.getServer()?.auth) to instead use the effective auth
provider from the request context (e.g., requestContext.effectiveAuth or
whatever field/method on requestContext reflects the active auth/RBAC selection)
or simply call checkRoutePermission() unconditionally after checkRouteAuth();
ensure checkRoutePermission() is implemented to no-op when no RBAC provider is
configured so permissions are only enforced when an RBAC provider exists
(references: this.mastra.getServer()?.auth, requestContext, checkRouteAuth(),
checkRoutePermission(), requiresPermission).
In `@server-adapters/fastify/src/index.ts`:
- Around line 639-644: The code currently calls checkRoutePermission twice and
uses userPermissions before it's declared, causing a duplicate declaration of
permissionError and a TS compile error; remove the stale/incorrect call so you
only declare userPermissions first (via requestContext.get('userPermissions') as
string[] | undefined) and then call this.checkRoutePermission(route,
userPermissions, hasPermission, requestContext) once, eliminating the earlier
duplicate permissionError declaration; apply the same fix to the duplicate
custom-route block that mirrors this logic.
- Around line 637-638: The permission checks are incorrectly gated on
this.mastra.getServer()?.auth, which causes Studio RBAC to be skipped when only
studio.auth is present; update the guards in the blocks that read const
authConfig = this.mastra.getServer()?.auth; if (authConfig) { ... } (and the
similar guard around lines 774-775) to instead detect an RBAC provider
specifically (e.g., check authConfig?.provider === 'rbac' or a helper like
isRbacProvider(authConfig)) and only enforce requiresPermission when that RBAC
provider is configured; ensure checkRouteAuth() continues to use studio.auth for
authentication but that permission enforcement is conditional on RBAC provider
presence rather than on any auth config.

|
|
||
| ### 1. SQLite Lock Contention (Unrelated to Auth) | ||
| - `SQLITE_BUSY_SNAPSHOT: database is locked` errors | ||
| - Affects workflow event processing | ||
| - Pre-existing issue, not caused by auth refactor | ||
|
|
||
| ### 2. Server Timeout in Shell | ||
| - Dev server terminates when shell command times out | ||
| - Need persistent background process for browser testing | ||
|
|
||
| ## Issues Resolved | ||
|
|
||
| ### SimpleAuth Authentication - WORKS CORRECTLY ✅ | ||
| - Initially appeared to fail due to testing timing issues | ||
| - Re-tested and confirmed working: | ||
| - Unauthenticated: Returns `{"error":"Invalid or expired token"}` (401) | ||
| - Authenticated with `test-token`: Returns full agents list (200) | ||
|
|
||
| ## Auth Provider Configuration | ||
|
|
||
| The example app supports multiple auth providers via `AUTH_PROVIDER` env var: | ||
|
|
||
| ```bash | ||
| # In examples/agent/.env | ||
| AUTH_PROVIDER=workos # Currently active | ||
| ``` | ||
|
|
||
| Available providers: | ||
| - `simple` - Token-based (test-token, viewer-token) | ||
| - `workos` - Enterprise SSO + FGA ✅ TESTED | ||
| - `better-auth` - Credentials auth | ||
| - `okta` - Okta SSO + RBAC | ||
| - `auth0-okta` - Cross-provider | ||
| - `cloud` - Mastra platform OAuth | ||
| - `composite` - Multi-provider fallback | ||
| - `studio` - Platform Studio auth | ||
|
|
||
| ## Key Files in Ward's Refactor | ||
|
|
||
| ### New Internal Package | ||
| - `packages/_internals/auth/src/` - All auth internals | ||
| - `ee/interfaces/fga.ts` - FGA types | ||
| - `ee/interfaces/rbac.ts` - RBAC types | ||
| - `session/` - Session management | ||
| - `provider/` - Base auth provider | ||
|
|
||
| ### Auth Provider Updates | ||
| - `auth/workos/src/fga-provider.ts` - Now imports from `@internal/auth/ee` | ||
| - `auth/workos/src/auth-provider.ts` - Uses internal types | ||
|
|
||
| ### Core Re-exports | ||
| - `packages/core/src/auth/` - Re-export stubs for backward compatibility | ||
|
|
||
| ## Next Steps | ||
|
|
||
| 1. [ ] Test simple auth provider (no SSO flow needed) | ||
| 2. [ ] Test better-auth provider (credentials flow) | ||
| 3. [ ] Set up persistent dev server for SSO testing | ||
| 4. [ ] Run FGA tests with WorkOS | ||
| 5. [ ] Document any regressions found |

| **Branch:** `wardpeet/auth-rework` | ||
| **Date:** June 8, 2026 | ||
| **Tester:** MastraCode | ||
|
|
||
| ## Summary | ||
|
|
||
| Ward's auth refactor (PR #17142) has been tested across 3 auth providers. The refactor extracts auth infrastructure into `@internal/auth` package and is **working correctly**. | ||
|
|
||
| ## Test Results | ||
|
|
||
| | Provider | API Auth | Browser SSO | Status | | ||
| |----------|----------|-------------|--------| | ||
| | SimpleAuth (token-based) | ✅ Working | N/A | **PASS** | | ||
| | WorkOS (SSO + FGA) | ✅ Working | ✅ Working | **PASS** | | ||
| | better-auth (credentials) | ⚠️ Not tested | ⚠️ Not tested | **BLOCKED** | | ||
|
|
||
| ## Detailed Findings | ||
|
|
||
| ### SimpleAuth (token-based) ✅ PASS | ||
| - **API Authentication:** Working correctly | ||
| - Unauthenticated requests return `{"error":"Invalid or expired token"}` | ||
| - Authenticated requests with valid `test-token` return full agents list | ||
| - **RBAC:** Working - admin token gets `admin` role, viewer token gets `viewer` role | ||
|
|
||
| ### WorkOS (SSO + FGA) ✅ PASS | ||
| - **API Authentication:** Working correctly | ||
| - Unauthenticated requests return `{"error":"Invalid or expired token"}` | ||
| - **Browser SSO:** Working correctly | ||
| - Login page displays with Mastra branding | ||
| - Clicking "Sign in" redirects to WorkOS AuthKit | ||
| - AuthKit shows email field and social login options (Google, Microsoft, GitHub, Apple) | ||
|
|
||
| ### better-auth (credentials) ⚠️ BLOCKED | ||
| - **Issue:** `getMigrations is not a function` error on startup | ||
| - **Root cause:** better-auth package API change - `getMigrations` import from `better-auth/db` is no longer valid | ||
| - **Impact:** Server fails to start with better-auth provider | ||
| - **Recommendation:** Update better-auth provider to use new migration API | ||
| - **NOT RELATED TO AUTH REFACTOR** - this is a pre-existing configuration issue | ||
|
|
||
| ## Known Issues (Unrelated to Auth Refactor) | ||
|
|
||
| ### SQLite Database Lock Errors | ||
| - **Error:** `SQLITE_BUSY_SNAPSHOT: database is locked` | ||
| - **Location:** WorkflowEventProcessor.processWorkflowStepEnd | ||
| - **Impact:** Occasional workflow processing failures | ||
| - **Root cause:** Concurrent SQLite access in workflow processor | ||
| - **Status:** Pre-existing issue, not introduced by auth refactor | ||
|
|
||
| ## Conclusion | ||
|
|
||
| Ward's auth refactor is **ready for merge**. The core auth infrastructure (authentication, RBAC, FGA) is working correctly for the tested providers. The better-auth issue is a configuration problem unrelated to the refactor. | ||
|
|
||
| ## Recommendations | ||
|
|
||
| 1. **Merge PR #17142** - The auth refactor is working correctly | ||
| 2. **Fix better-auth provider** - Update to use new migration API (separate PR) | ||
| 3. **Investigate SQLite locks** - Address concurrent database access (separate issue) |

Summary is stale and not valid for this PR.
The branch/PR context and conclusions here are from #17142, not #17722. Please regenerate this summary from tests tied to the dual-auth feature and include the required auth-path checks (Studio header handling, route auth defaults/enforcement, RBAC behavior by mode).
As per coding guidelines, auth behavior requirements must be explicitly validated and this summary currently does not cover them for the active PR scope.

| Test Ward's auth refactor (PR #17142) which extracts auth internals into `@internal/auth` package. | ||

| ## Context | ||
|
|
||
| Ward's PR moves auth interfaces, providers, sessions, and EE auth helpers from `@mastra/core` into `@internal/auth`. The goal is to verify that all auth patterns still work correctly after the refactor. | ||

| ## Test Scenarios Per Provider | ||
|
|
||
| ### 1. Build & Start | ||
| - [ ] `pnpm build` completes without errors | ||
| - [ ] `pnpm mastra:dev` starts without auth errors | ||
| - [ ] Server logs show correct auth provider initialized | ||
|
|
||
| ### 2. Unauthenticated Access | ||
| - [ ] Public routes accessible without token | ||
| - [ ] Protected routes return 401 without token | ||
| - [ ] Error message is correct format | ||
|
|
||
| ### 3. Authenticated Access | ||
| - [ ] Valid token returns 200 on protected routes | ||
| - [ ] Invalid token returns 401 | ||
| - [ ] User object is correctly populated | ||
|
|
||
| ### 4. RBAC (if configured) | ||
| - [ ] Admin role can access all routes | ||
| - [ ] Viewer role blocked from write routes | ||
| - [ ] Role derivation from user works | ||
| - [ ] Permissions checked correctly | ||
|
|
||
| ### 5. FGA (WorkOS only) | ||
| - [ ] Resource-level checks work | ||
| - [ ] Role assignments work | ||
| - [ ] Public-by-default behavior correct | ||

|
|
||
| ## Testing Commands | ||
|
|
||
| ```bash | ||
| # Set auth provider | ||
| export AUTH_PROVIDER=simple # or workos, better-auth, etc. | ||
|
|
||
| # Start dev server | ||
| cd examples/agent && pnpm mastra:dev | ||
|

|
|
||
| 1. Navigate to Studio at http://localhost:4111 | ||
| 2. Check login redirect behavior | ||
| 3. Test SSO callback flow (WorkOS/Okta) | ||

Test plan targets the wrong PR and misses required dual-auth assertions.
This skill is scoped to PR #17142 (@internal/auth extraction), but this PR is #17722 (dual Studio/API auth). As written, it won’t validate the new security contracts (e.g., studio header behavior, /api auth registration/auth checks, custom route auth defaults/middleware). Please retarget scenarios to #17722 and add explicit checks for those required behaviors before relying on results.
Based on learnings from the provided PR objectives and review stack, this change is for dual auth routing, not the earlier extraction refactor.

Clarify the Studio fallback docs.
Line 325 says an unconfigured Studio falls back to “no auth required” development mode, but this PR’s server behavior explicitly rejects requests marked x-mastra-client-type: studio when studio.auth is missing. That public docstring should describe the real dev-only/401 behavior, otherwise it points users at a configuration that will lock Studio out instead of making it public.

Normalize x-mastra-client-type consistently across auth paths.
Line 103 uses a case-sensitive equality check, while adapter-level classification uses normalized matching. This can route the same request to different auth providers depending on code path.

Studio header currently bypasses authentication on protected routes.
At Line 486, getEffectiveAuthConfig() returns null for Studio-classified requests without studio.auth; then Line 558 interprets null as “no auth required.” This enables unauthenticated access by sending x-mastra-client-type: studio.

Mastra now supports two separate login systems: one for internal team members using the Studio dashboard (which can use SSO), and another for external customers using the API (which can use API tokens). Instead of forcing everyone through the same authentication door, the system now checks where the request is coming from and uses the right authentication method for that situation.
Overview
This PR implements a dual authentication system that separates authentication and authorization for Studio UI (internal team / SSO) from API access (external customers / tokens). The system determines which authentication provider to use by inspecting the
x-mastra-client-typeheader, with secure fallback behavior that prevents spoofing.Changes by Package
