ConnorYohandJames Brunton 14245d33d1 feat(saas): account-link — connected self-hosted billing (Mode A) [WIP, flag-gated] (#6738)
> **Draft / WIP.** Combined-billing **Mode A** (connected self-hosted).
Entirely behind `stirling.billing.account-link.enabled` (default **off**
→ beans absent → 404). Pairs with Stirling-PDF-SaaS PR #313 (twin
migration → `v3`).

## What this does

A self-hosted instance links a SaaS account in the **Portal**, gets a
**device credential**, and authenticates unattended metering/entitlement
with it — no long-lived user JWT on the server. The Portal then surfaces
the team's **billing** (free trial → metered Processor plan) driven by
the live wallet.

```mermaid
sequenceDiagram
  participant Portal as Portal (browser)
  participant Supa as SaaS Supabase Auth
  participant Local as Self-hosted backend
  participant SaaS as SaaS Java (app/saas)
  Portal->>Supa: signIn / signUp (Supabase JS, short-lived JWT)
  Supa-->>Portal: JWT (SDK-refreshed, stays in browser)
  Portal->>Local: hand JWT (same-origin)
  Local->>SaaS: POST /account-link/register (Bearer JWT, leader)
  SaaS-->>Local: { device_id, device_secret }  (secret once)
  Note over Local: store device_secret server-side
  loop unattended
    Local->>SaaS: /api/v1/instance/** (X-Device-Id + X-Device-Secret)
    SaaS-->>Local: entitlement / gate decision
  end
```

**Auth model:** human auth = Supabase JS (ephemeral JWT, kept for
attended portal features). Durable instance auth = a team-bound
**device_id + secret** (SHA-256 stored, shown once), non-user
`ROLE_LINKED_INSTANCE`, path-scoped to `/api/v1/instance/**`. Instance
binds to a **team**, never a user.

## Billing surface (Portal · Mode A states)

`Usage & billing` is state-driven by the link/subscription dimension and
built to the marketing designs, sharing one component layer across
states:

- **Unlinked** → link-account prompt.
- **Linked · Free** — the *Processor trial*: a one-time 500-PDF free
grant ("Process 500 PDFs free, then $X/PDF"), the team's free-editor
fleet, and a leader-only **Switch on the Processor →** (embedded Stripe
Checkout).
- **Linked · Subscribed** — the *Processor plan* dashboard:
PDFs-processed split (API / Agents / Automation), **spend this month**
vs. a **spend limit** meter with a run-rate projection and an **in-place
cap editor** (preset buckets + suggested value + guardrail), Stripe
**invoices** (with billed PDFs per invoice), and the default **payment
method**. Card / subscription changes deep-link to Stripe's hosted
portal.

Manual PDF editing is always free — only Automation / AI / API is
metered; a `$0` cap blocks all metered work (≠ "no cap").

**Shared, not duplicated:** the editor-fleet card, the Enterprise
upsell, and the meter (`@shared/billing` `MeterBar`) render in both the
free and subscribed views; money/cap math lives once in
`@shared/billing`. The page header is a sticky, full-bleed bar.

**New SaaS reads** (defensive — degrade to empty/"—" when the Stripe
mirror lacks a table, never 500):
- `GET /api/v1/payg/payment-method` — default card (brand / last4 /
expiry) from `stripe.payment_methods`.
- Invoice **PDFs processed** — billed line-item quantity from
`stripe.invoice_line_items`.

## Progress

- [x] Schema: `V22 linked_instance` (+ Supabase twin in #313)
- [x] `AccountLinkController` register / list / revoke (leader-only,
team from caller)
- [x] Device-credential filter (path-scoped, constant-time,
revocation-aware) + `SupabaseSecurityConfig` wiring (conditional)
- [x] `GET /api/v1/instance/whoami` + **`/entitlement`** (reuses
`EntitlementService`/`TeamBillingService`) + tests
- [x] Self-hosted backend (`app/proprietary`): orchestrator + instance
gate (dark + **fail-open**) + tests
- [x] Portal: in-app Supabase login modal + register hand-off +
`LinkContext` (unlinked default) + "Linked instances" view — all
`@shared` Storybook components
- [x] **Portal billing surface** — free (Processor trial) + subscribed
(Processor plan) Usage views to marketing spec; link-state derived from
the **live wallet**; in-place cap editor; over-cap banner
- [x] **SaaS reads** — payment-method endpoint + invoice billed-units
(defensive `stripe.*` mirror DAOs) + tests
- [x] Orphan guard: block leaving/accepting away from a team whose
departure orphans its linked instances
- [ ] Metering Step 2 (lease + reconcile loop) + bounded fail-open
cutoff
- [ ] Proprietary hardening (SaaS base-url config, secret-at-rest, finer
billable classification) + HTTP integration test
- [ ] Cross-repo Stripe lifecycle certified end-to-end (subscribe →
meter → cancel → 402)
- [ ] Admin ⟺ SaaS-leader enforcement (separate portal-team-mgmt
workstream)

## Verification — all green
| Gate | Result |
|---|---|
| `STIRLING_FLAVOR=saas :saas:test` | BUILD SUCCESSFUL (account-link +
payg, incl. `PaygPaymentMethodControllerTest`,
`PaygInvoicesControllerTest`) |
| `:proprietary:test` | BUILD SUCCESSFUL (account-link + entitlement
cache/interceptor) |
| portal | tsc 0 · eslint 0 · **vitest 55** · storybook build (all
billing stories) |
| frontend post-sync | typecheck shared + portal + editor (saas +
desktop): 0 |

## Review feedback applied
Reworked the portal after first-pass feedback: linking signs in via the
**shared Supabase login** (SSO + email/password) — no bespoke form; the
**device secret is never shown in or sent to the FE** (the local backend
registers + stores it server-side); billing copy reads **PDFs**, not
"units"; the wallet surface uses **`@shared` components** matching the
SaaS Plan page. Re-verified including an assertion the link response
carries no `deviceSecret`/`deviceId`.

**Synced onto unified auth + in-app login (2026-06-23).** Merged `main`
incl. **#6725 unified auth** (`frontend/shared/auth`); the link flow
uses a shared `useSupabaseLogin` hook + `SupabaseLoginForm`, a portal
`LinkAccountModal`, and `useAccountLink.completeLink(session)` (+
on-mount SSO redirect-return). Config: `VITE_SAAS_SUPABASE_URL` +
`VITE_SAAS_SUPABASE_ANON_KEY`. The local `/account-link/link` call
carries the Spring admin bearer with the SaaS JWT in the body. **SSO**
needs the SaaS Supabase project to allow-list the portal redirect URL
(email/password works without it).

## Assumptions / open
- **Proprietary remains a scaffold** (placeholder SaaS base-url,
plaintext device secret at rest, coarse billable classification).
- Payment-method + invoice-quantity render only when
`stripe.payment_methods` / `stripe.invoice_line_items` are in the
Sync-Engine target (confirm in the Supabase/Sync-Engine config);
otherwise they degrade gracefully.
- A self-contained local HTML report + manual E2E runbook live in
`notes/account-link-report/` (dev artifacts, outside the repo).
