fix(auth): owner allowlist trusts pass-through-authenticated callers (#59)

Allowlist.Check now takes ctx: when the caller authenticated with
their own Gitea PAT (pass-through, v0.12.0), it skips the static
GITEA_MCP_ALLOWED_OWNERS check entirely — Gitea's own permission
model already gates that caller's access more precisely than a coarse
owner-name list can. The static list still applies unchanged for the
shared static-token/JWT path, where it's the only defense against the
service token's blast radius.

Mechanical: every tool call site already had ctx in scope, so this is
a signature-only change at 41 call sites, no other tool behavior
changes. Closes the "Deferred" item from #59.

+# How gitea-mcp works
+
+`gitea-mcp` is a custom **MCP (Model Context Protocol) front door for Gitea** — a
+small Go HTTP service that exposes ~60 Gitea operations as MCP tools over
+Streamable HTTP, so a claude.ai connector (or any MCP client) can drive the
+homelab's Gitea (`https://git.d-ma.be`) with proper auth, an owner allowlist,
+caller attribution, and defensive input handling.
+
+It is **not** a generic Gitea proxy. It is an opinionated, allowlisted, single-
+tenant front door built on the shared **`mcp-chassis`** auth library.
+
+---
+
+## 1. Request lifecycle
+
+Everything is wired in `cmd/gitea-mcp/main.go` on a plain `http.ServeMux`:
+
+```
+POST /mcp
+  → OriginAllowlist        (internal/mcp/origin.go)     browser Origin gate
+  → BearerMiddleware       (mcp-chassis auth)           authN: static token OR JWT
+  → CallerMiddleware       (internal/auth/caller.go)    extract caller identity
+  → MCP server             (internal/mcp/server.go)     JSON-RPC dispatch → tools
+
+GET  /healthz                                            unauthenticated health JSON
+GET  /.well-known/oauth-protected-resource               RFC 9728 metadata (when Dex set)
+```
+
+The middleware order is deliberate: Origin first (cheap reject), then authN,
+then identity extraction, then the MCP handler. A tool call is a JSON-RPC
+`tools/call` that the registry dispatches to a `Tool` handler.
+
+---
+
+## 2. Authentication (`mcp-chassis` `BearerMiddleware`)
+
+`Authorization: Bearer <token>` is checked with this precedence (`auth/bearer.go`
+in `mcp-chassis`):
+
+1. **Static bearer** — constant-time compare against `GITEA_MCP_STATIC_TOKEN`.
+   Wins immediately, never emits a `WWW-Authenticate` challenge. This is the
+   service-to-service path (repo `.mcp.json` files carrying `GITEA_MCP_TOKEN`).
+2. **JWT validation** — against a **list of trusted OIDC issuers**
+   (`NewMultiJWTValidator`, ADR-0011):
+   - **Authentik** (`DEX_ISSUER_URL` + `MCP_AUDIENCE=claude-ai`) — the claude.ai
+     web connector after its OAuth handshake.
+   - **k3s cluster OIDC** (`K8S_ISSUER_URL` + `K8S_MCP_AUDIENCE=gitea-mcp`) — lets
+     in-cluster pods authenticate with audience-bound projected **ServiceAccount
+     tokens** instead of a static bearer. The k8s issuer is additive and
+     best-effort: if the in-cluster OIDC can't be reached at startup it is
+     dropped so Authentik auth is never taken down (see `cmd/gitea-mcp/main.go`
+     and `cmd/gitea-mcp/k8soidc.go`).
+3. Otherwise **401**. If `MCP_RESOURCE_URL` + `DEX_ISSUER_URL` are set, the 401
+   carries a `WWW-Authenticate: … resource_metadata=…` header (RFC 9728) so
+   claude.ai's OAuth discovery can find `/.well-known/oauth-protected-resource`.
+
+A JWKS/issuer outage yields **503** (`ErrUnavailable`), distinct from a
+present-but-invalid token's **401**, so a transient IdP blip is retried rather
+than treated as a hard auth failure.
+
+### The k8s SA-token wrinkle (ADR-0011)
+
+k3s serves its OIDC discovery/JWKS over the **cluster CA** and requires an
+**authenticated** request (anonymous → 401). So `k8sOIDCClient()` builds an HTTP
+client that trusts `/var/run/secrets/kubernetes.io/serviceaccount/ca.crt` and
+carries the pod's own SA bearer, passed to the chassis via
+`IssuerConfig.HTTPClient`. Proven live: a real `aud=gitea-mcp` SA token → the
+running server → HTTP 200.
+
+### Origin allowlist
+
+`OriginAllowlist` (`internal/mcp/origin.go`) rejects any request whose `Origin`
+header is not in `GITEA_MCP_ORIGIN_ALLOWLIST` (`https://claude.ai`,
+`https://api.anthropic.com`). An **empty** Origin (server-side callers) is
+allowed — Origin is a browser-only header.
+
+---
+
+## 3. Authorization, identity & attribution
+
+- **Owner allowlist** (`internal/allowlist`) — tools only operate on owners in
+  `GITEA_MCP_ALLOWED_OWNERS` (default `mathias`). A call for any other owner is
+  rejected before it reaches Gitea.
+- **Caller identity** (`internal/auth/caller.go`) — the authenticated username is
+  read from reverse-proxy identity headers, `X-Auth-Request-User` (the verified
+  OIDC identity, authoritative) preferred over `X-Forwarded-User`. Conflicts are
+  logged, not silently resolved.
+- **Identity footer** (`internal/identity/footer.go`) — mutating tools that write
+  a body (issue/PR comments, creates) append
+  `_Created via git-mcp on behalf of @<caller>_`, so actions taken through the
+  front door are attributable even though all upstream calls use one service PAT.
+
+---
+
+## 4. Upstream Gitea access
+
+`internal/gitea/Client` is a thin REST client over `GITEA_BASE_URL`
+(`https://git.d-ma.be`). Every upstream call carries a **single service PAT** —
+`GITEA_MCP_DEFAULT_TOKEN` — as `Authorization: token <PAT>` (`client.go`). So
+gitea-mcp is a *front door*, not a credential pass-through: the caller's identity
+is captured for attribution, but Gitea sees one service account. A 60s branch
+cache and a 30s HTTP timeout round it out.
+
+Defensive guard: paths with an empty owner/repo segment (`//`) are rejected
+locally (`hasEmptySegment`) so callers get a typed validation error instead of
+Gitea's opaque `/api/swagger` 404.
+
+---
+
+## 5. Tools
+
+Tools are registered in `internal/tools/registry.go` into a `registry.Registry`;
+each implements the `Tool` interface (name, JSON schema, handler). ~60 tools,
+by area:
+
+| Area | Tools |
+|------|-------|
+| Repos | list, get, search, status, create, delete, update, tree, topics_update, mirror_push |
+| Files | file_read, file_write_branch, file_delete, dir_list |
+| Branches | branch_list, branch_delete, branch_protection_get |
+| Issues | list, get, create, edit, close, reopen, comment, label, list_comments |
+| PRs | list, get, create, comment, merge, files_diff |
+| Labels / Releases / Tags | label_list, release_create, tag_create |
+| Workflows (Actions) | run_list, run_status, run_trigger |
+| Search / Templates | code_search, create_project_from_template |
+| Composite | tbd_ship (trunk-based ship helper) |
+
+Shared tool-layer hygiene (`internal/tools/tool.go`):
+- **Alias normalization** — `repo`↔`name` and `number`↔`index` are reconciled so
+  a tool works whichever spelling a caller sends (an explicit canonical wins).
+- **Required-identifier validation** — an empty `repo`/`name` is rejected at the
+  tool layer (avoids the bare-404 leak); `owner` is covered by the allowlist.
+- **Page-size cap** — limits are clamped to 50.
+
+---
+
+## 6. Configuration (env)
+
+| Var | Purpose | Example |
+|-----|---------|---------|
+| `GITEA_MCP_PORT` | listen port | `8080` |
+| `GITEA_BASE_URL` | upstream Gitea | `https://git.d-ma.be` |
+| `GITEA_MCP_DEFAULT_TOKEN` | **upstream** service PAT (all Gitea calls) | *(secret)* |
+| `GITEA_MCP_STATIC_TOKEN` | static bearer for service-to-service auth | *(secret)* |
+| `GITEA_MCP_ALLOWED_OWNERS` | owner allowlist | `mathias` |
+| `GITEA_MCP_ORIGIN_ALLOWLIST` | permitted browser Origins | `https://claude.ai,…` |
+| `DEX_ISSUER_URL` / `MCP_AUDIENCE` | Authentik issuer + audience | `…/o/claude-ai/`, `claude-ai` |
+| `K8S_ISSUER_URL` / `K8S_MCP_AUDIENCE` | k8s OIDC issuer + audience (SA tokens) | `https://kubernetes.default.svc.cluster.local`, `gitea-mcp` |
+| `MCP_RESOURCE_URL` | this server's public URL for `.well-known` metadata | `https://git-mcp.d-ma.be` |
+
+Secrets come from k8s Secrets (`gitea-mcp-secrets`, `gitea-mcp-static-token`);
+non-secret values are inlined in the Deployment.
+
+---
+
+## 7. Health & observability
+
+- `GET /healthz` → `{"ok":true,"jwt":{"status":"disabled|enabled|degraded","last_error":"…"}}`.
+  `degraded` = a JWT issuer was configured but init failed (static-token auth
+  still works) — distinguishes "IdP unreachable" from "JWT not configured".
+- Every auth rejection is audit-logged (`mcp-chassis` `deny`) with the reason,
+  client IP, token *type*, and a truncated SHA-256 **fingerprint** — never the
+  raw token, so nothing secret lands in logs.
+
+---
+
+## 8. Deployment & CI/CD
+
+- **Runs in** the `gitea-mcp` k3s namespace (`git.d-ma.be/mathias/infra`
+  `k3s/apps/gitea-mcp/`): a Deployment on `localhost:5000/gitea-mcp:<sha>`, an
+  ExternalSecret for tokens, and a **default-deny NetworkPolicy** + an
+  `allow-ingress-nginx` rule (this namespace is the P6.1 netpol pilot — the only
+  ingress allowed is from `ingress-nginx`).
+- **Public endpoint** `https://git-mcp.d-ma.be` (NPM → ingress-nginx → svc:8080).
+- **Pipeline** (`.gitea/workflows/cd.yml`, self-hosted koala runner): quality gate
+  (test/vet) → `buildah` image → `localhost:5000` → smoke test → the deploy job
+  clones infra over SSH, `sed`s the image tag in `k3s/apps/gitea-mcp/deployment.yaml`,
+  commits, and triggers a **Flux** reconcile. Push to `main` ⇒ new image ⇒ rolled.
+
+---
+
+## 9. Operational notes
+
+- **Rollback** = revert the image tag (or the env change) in the infra Deployment;
+  Flux rolls back. Auth changes are additive, so enabling/disabling the k8s issuer
+  never affects the Authentik/static paths.
+- **NetworkPolicy kill switch** — delete the `gitea-mcp` NetworkPolicies to
+  restore open ingress if the pilot ever locks something out.
+- **claude.ai connector flakiness** — the claude.ai→gitea-mcp MCP path
+  intermittently hits a Cloudflare "you have been blocked" page (the error names
+  `anthropic.com`). On the Claude Code CLI, prefer the direct Gitea REST API for
+  reliability; the MCP connector remains the claude.ai-web path. (brain:
+  `prefer-rest-api-skills-over-mcp-on-cli-cloudflare-waf`.)
+
+## References
+- Auth library: `git.d-ma.be/mathias/mcp-chassis` (`auth` package) — shared
+  `BearerMiddleware` + multi-issuer `JWTValidator` + RFC 9728 handler.
+- Multi-issuer / SA-token design: infra `docs/decisions/ADR-0011-service-to-service-auth.md`.
+- Source map: `cmd/gitea-mcp/{main,healthz,k8soidc}.go`,
