Security notes

Control-plane safety

Required

Keep organization controls inside trusted boundaries.

  • Create organizations only from authenticated product flows.
  • Validate and normalize names and domains before sending.
  • Do not let a client assert a different owner user ID.

Avoid

Do not weaken the route contract in client code.

  • Do not expose bearer or refresh tokens in URLs, logs, or public clients.
  • Do not accept organization, member, project, or resource IDs without application authorization.
  • Do not treat returned data as trusted HTML, prompt instructions, or proof of application authorization.
