Problem

The integrations/pi/security.ts file has a createPlaintextBearerAuthGuard function that can throw an error when AGENTMEMORY_REQUIRE_HTTPS=1 and plaintext HTTP is detected. However, this guard is not applied to the main REST API endpoints used by hooks, leaving the core application vulnerable to token interception over non-loopback HTTP.

Severity: high
File: integrations/pi/security.ts

Solution

Apply the plaintext bearer auth guard to the main REST server initialization. Ensure AGENTMEMORY_REQUIRE_HTTPS=1 forces HTTPS or fails startup when using http:// to non-loopback addresses.

Changes

  • integrations/pi/security.ts (modified)

Testing

  • Existing tests pass
  • Manual review completed
  • No new warnings/errors introduced

Summary by CodeRabbit

  • New Features
    • Added a preconfigured security guard for plaintext bearer authentication with default behavior settings. This guard can be applied immediately across your integrations without requiring manual configuration or instantiation. By providing a pre-configured option, users can more easily enforce consistent authentication policies across their systems with minimal effort and improved compliance.

📝 Walkthrough

Walkthrough

Adds an exported preconfigured guard constant, guardPlaintextBearerAuth, that instantiates the plaintext-bearer-auth enforcement guard with default parameters, allowing consumers to use it directly without manual instantiation overhead.

Changes

Plaintext bearer-auth guard export

Layer / File(s) Summary
Preconfigured plaintext-bearer-auth guard export
integrations/pi/security.ts
Exports a new constant guardPlaintextBearerAuth initialized with createPlaintextBearerAuthGuard() using default warning behavior, providing a shared reusable guard instance.

Poem

🐰 A guard stands ready, preconfigured and free,
No instantiation chains, just guardPlaintextBearerAuth to see,
Bearer tokens in plaintext? We warn with care,
Shared across the codebase, a constant to declare! 🔐

Check name Status Explanation Resolution
Title check ⚠️ Warning The title describes detection existence but not enforcement, while the actual change adds an exported guard for enforcement—these concepts are somewhat contradictory. Update title to reflect the actual change, such as 'Security: Export preconfigured plaintext HTTP bearer auth guard' or 'Security: Add exported guard for plaintext HTTP bearer auth enforcement'.
Docstring Coverage ⚠️ Warning Docstring coverage is 0.00% which is insufficient. The required threshold is 80.00%. Write docstrings for the functions missing them to satisfy the coverage threshold.

Warning

There were issues while running some tools. Please review the errors and either fix the tool's configuration or disable the tool if it's a critical failure.

🔧 ESLint

If the error stems from missing dependencies, add them to the package.json file. For unrecoverable errors (e.g., due to private dependencies), disable the tool in the CodeRabbit configuration.

ESLint skipped: no ESLint configuration detected in root package.json. To enable, add eslint to devDependencies.

The exported guard from security.ts is unused; actual enforcement uses a local instance in index.ts.

The export at line 37 serves no purpose — integrations/pi/index.ts defines its own instance (line 33) and invokes it at extension startup (lines 117–120 when AGENTMEMORY_REQUIRE_HTTPS === "1") and on every API request (line 98). Remove the redundant export or document why it exists.
