Conversation
* Using a header is now an opt-in, disabled by default, allowing the user to configure the header name. * Document situations where using a header is and isn't secure * Remove fallback to default_user in auto memory wrapper * Borrow the JWT improvements from NVIDIA#2196 to apply to all endpoints not just websockets Signed-off-by: David Gardner <dagardner@nvidia.com>

WalkthroughThe change makes runtime identity authoritative for authentication, memory operations, HTTP, WebSocket, and MCP sessions. FastAPI can resolve identity from a validated trusted upstream header. Missing, empty, duplicate, or replaceable identities are rejected. ChangesRuntime identity enforcement
Estimated code review effort: 3 (Moderate) | ~20 minutes Merge Risk: 🔵 Low · up to The identity-resolution and authentication changes introduce no supported current-head correctness, security, or availability blocker, but merge should proceed with owner awareness of the remaining test annotation, documentation, and lint-cleanliness follow-ups.

`@packages/nvidia_nat_core/src/nat/authentication/http_basic_auth/http_basic_auth_provider.py`:
- Around line 48-51: Update authenticate in
packages/nvidia_nat_core/src/nat/authentication/http_basic_auth/http_basic_auth_provider.py
at lines 48-51 to document the identity resolution contract: omitted user_id
falls back to Context.user_id, explicit user_id takes precedence, and an empty
resolved identity raises RuntimeError. Add a Google-style authenticate docstring
with the same contract in
packages/nvidia_nat_core/src/nat/authentication/oauth2/oauth2_auth_code_flow_provider.py
at lines 93-96.
In
`@packages/nvidia_nat_core/src/nat/front_ends/fastapi/fastapi_front_end_config.py`:
- Around line 306-308: Add concise Google-style docstrings to the public
validator methods validate_identity_header and the other validator near it,
documenting what each validates, the returned value, and the conditions that
raise ValueError.
In `@packages/nvidia_nat_core/src/nat/runtime/user_manager.py`:
- Line 62: Update packages/nvidia_nat_core/src/nat/runtime/user_manager.py at
lines 62-62 by documenting identity_header in extract_user_from_connection’s
Google-style Args section and IdentityHeaderError in its Raises section; update
lines 105-106 by adding a public Google-style docstring to
extract_user_from_connection_with_verification covering identity_header
precedence and verification failure behavior.
In
`@packages/nvidia_nat_core/tests/nat/front_ends/fastapi/test_message_handler.py`:
- Line 94: Update the test setup around _make_message_handler so the unused
socket binding is renamed to _socket or otherwise removed while preserving the
handler and remaining return-value bindings.
In `@packages/nvidia_nat_core/tests/nat/runtime/test_user_manager.py`:
- Line 104: In packages/nvidia_nat_core/tests/nat/runtime/test_user_manager.py,
annotate the parameterized test parameter value in
test_missing_or_empty_identity_header_is_rejected as str | None, and annotate
header_name at line 209 as str; no other changes are needed.
In `@packages/nvidia_nat_mcp/src/nat/plugins/mcp/client/fastapi_routes.py`:
- Around line 213-214: Add a 401 response definition to the
`/mcp/client/tool/list/per_user` route’s response metadata, alongside the
existing 200, 400, and 500 entries, so the documented API contract reflects
`IdentityHeaderError` being mapped to HTTP 401.

- Line 124: Update the trusted identity header security guidance to explicitly
require that only the trusted proxy can reach nat serve and that the
proxy-to-nat serve connection uses authenticated encryption; replace the vague
“isolated network environment” wording while preserving the existing
authentication, overwrite, and header validation requirements.
