Host-neutral help (deployment-specific facts removed), registered with
HelpBundles, gated by HelpBundleAssertions. QQQ 4.1.0-RC.7.
Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5.5 <noreply@anthropic.com>
Add help/qbit-authentik.yaml (QQQ help-bundle format) for the Identity app and
all 15 tables, applied by AuthentikHelp (STAND-IN for core #1198). API-backed
tables say rows are read live and what an empty list means. Add
AuthentikTablesGuardrailTest (used at runtime, explained, documented).

## [Unreleased]
- Replace expired token-delivery and credential-scope reflection bridges with the RC.7 APIs; retain conservative permission narrowing and explicit unavailable-delivery tests.
- Ship the expanded, host-neutral QBIT help bundle using QQQ 4.1.0-RC.7 registration and validation, with coverage for optional features and live references. Preserve inline app/table help for hosts without help storage; document HOST bundle overrides.
- Guided empty states: `help/qbit-authentik.yaml` (QQQ help-bundle format) gives the Identity app and all 15 tables a summary and a "How rows get created" section; the 11 API-backed tables say they are read live from Authentik and what an empty list means (no permission, feature or invitation flow not enabled, or Authentik has none). Applied inline by `AuthentikHelp` as well as registered with core, which fills only empty slots and follows the host's `tableNamePrefix`. `AuthentikTablesGuardrailTest` pins that every table is used at runtime, explained and documented. No schema, config or seed changes.
-`AuthentikQBitConfig.fullAccessHostPermissions` lets a host declare permission names core cannot enumerate (custom checkers, named permissions); full access expands to them at use time, for the instance holding that runtime's backend only.
-`AuthentikMaintenance.applyPolicy` lets reviewed host run-once jobs apply a policy to an exact group name through the existing audited Save Policy path. Dedicated maintenance identities, full-access expansion, canonical no-ops, context restoration, stale checks and optional two-person approval are covered; system-session writes remain forbidden. No HTTP route or process is registered.

### Tables, starter data and empty screens
Nothing is seeded: there are no starter defaults to include in a changelog. Setup comes from `AuthentikQBitConfig` (URL, API token, features, read-only mode), and the Identity home's "Needs attention" card lists what is left. The tables are of two kinds:
- **API-backed (live):** `authentik_user`, `_group`, `_group_member` (virtual), `_session`, `_event`, `_application`, `_policy_binding`, `_blueprint`, `_role`, `_token`, `_invitation`. Every row is read from Authentik on each view and nothing is stored locally. An empty list means Authentik returned nothing to you: your role lacks the permission, the qbit's feature or invitation flow is not enabled, or Authentik has no such records. Read-only mode only blocks changes.
- **Local (the qbit's own records):** `authentik_admin_action` (audit trail), `authentik_approval_request`, `authentik_policy` and `authentik_token_scope`. They fill as people run actions, and are written only by the qbit.
Every table, and the app, ships help (`help/qbit-authentik.yaml`, the QQQ help-bundle format) that says what the table is for, how its rows get created and, for the live tables, what an empty list means. The Next UI shows it as the empty state. A host's own help on a table is never replaced, and a host's `tableNamePrefix` is applied to the bundle's table names. `AuthentikTablesGuardrailTest` fails when a table is added without runtime use, a documented reason it starts empty, and this help.

## In-app help
The qbit ships `src/main/resources/help/qbit-authentik.yaml` and registers it with
QQQ's help bundle registry (QQQ 4.1.0-RC.7). Registration is metadata-only; core
skips startup synchronization when the host has no `helpContent` table. Inline
app and table help remains available without help storage.
To override wording, register a separate bundle with `layer: HOST`, its own bundle
ID and version, and entries with the same keys and roles. HOST entries take
precedence over QBIT entries; do not edit the dependency's resource. Keep deployment
names, navigation and authentication timing in the host bundle.
`AuthentikHelpBundleTest` enables every supported feature and uses
`HelpBundleAssertions` to require coverage and validate keys, summaries and live
references. Run it with `./mvnw test -Dtest=AuthentikHelpBundleTest`.
The bundle version is the literal project version; update it when releasing.
Nothing to do. The qbit now applies `help/qbit-authentik.yaml` to the Identity app and its tables at the end of `produce()`, filling only help slots the host has not set. There is no schema change and nothing to seed or include in a Liquibase changelog: the API-backed tables are live Authentik data, and the four local tables fill as people use the actions.
## QQQ 4.1.0-RC.6 baseline (#20 / F19)
Hosts should align their QQQ dependencies with the released `qqq-bom-pom:4.1.0-RC.6`
summary:Review Authentik accounts, groups, application access and identity administration.
content:|
Identity shows the accounts, groups and applications held in Authentik, the service that signs people in to this application. The directory data is read from Authentik with the host's configured caching, and Authentik stays the source of truth. Changes made in Authentik itself are equally valid, and nothing here overwrites them blindly.
**Read only by default.** Out of the box you can look but not change anything. The change actions (creating and editing users and groups, resetting passwords, revoking sessions, editing policies) appear only when writes are switched on for this site. When they are off, those buttons are absent, not just disabled. Deleting a user or group needs a second switch and is off unless it was turned on deliberately.
Some details, such as sessions, tokens, events and raw attributes, need the audit permission. You need the permission to read users to open this app.
- key:table:authentik_application;slot:help
summary:The apps that people sign in to through Authentik, and who is allowed to open them.
content:|
Each row is an application set up in Authentik. Open one to see its provider, how it is launched and, under **Who can open it (policy bindings)**, the rules that decide which groups or users may use it.
This list is read only. Applications are managed in Authentik, not here.
**How rows get created:** Define applications in Authentik; you can inspect their live state here. An empty list means no applications match your query and visible scope.
- key:table:authentik_application;section:details
summary:The application's name, address, provider and library settings.
summary:Internal link used to list this application's access rules.
- key:table:authentik_blueprint;slot:help
summary:The configuration files Authentik applies to set itself up, and whether each applied cleanly.
content:|
Blueprints are files that describe parts of Authentik, such as its groups and service accounts. Authentik applies them itself. This list shows each one's **{{label:authentik_blueprint.status}}**, whether it is **{{label:authentik_blueprint.enabled}}**, and when it was **{{label:authentik_blueprint.lastApplied}}**.
It is read only and for checking. A status that is not successful means something in Authentik's own setup needs attention.
**How rows get created:** Authentik discovers and applies blueprints; you can inspect their live status here. An empty list means no blueprint instances match your query.

- key:table:authentik_event;slot:help
summary:'Authentik''s activity log:sign-ins, failed logins, changes and other security events, newest first.'
content:|
Use this to answer who did what and when: a login, a password reset, a group change, or something an admin did from this app. Each row names the **{{label:authentik_event.action}}**, who did it, from which **{{label:authentik_event.clientIp}}**, and what it touched. **{{label:authentik_event.context}}** holds the raw detail.
The list is read only and needs the audit permission. On a user, the **History** section shows just that person's events. Authentik deletes old events on its own schedule, shown in **{{label:authentik_event.expires}}**.
**How rows get created:** Authentik records security events; you can inspect the live event log here. An empty list means no events match your query.

- key:table:authentik_event;field:expires
summary:When Authentik will delete this event from its log.
- key:table:authentik_group_member;slot:help
summary:Which people belong to which Authentik groups, one row per person and group.
content:|
This is the list behind the **Members** section on a group and the **Memberships** section on a user. It is read only. To change who is in a group you use the **{{label:authentikAddMembers}}**, **{{label:authentikRemoveMembers}}**, **{{label:authentikAddToGroup}}** or **{{label:authentikRemoveFromGroup}}** actions, which are present only when writes are enabled.
**How rows get created:** Membership rows are assembled live from Authentik. Use the membership actions to add or remove people. An empty list means no memberships match your query.
summary:Whether the member's account can currently sign in.
- key:table:authentik_group_member;field:groupPk
summary:Authentik's internal id of the group.
- key:table:authentik_group_member;field:userPk
summary:Authentik's number for the member's account.
- key:table:authentik_group;slot:help
summary:The groups that decide what each person can do in this application and which applications they can open.
content:|
Access in this application comes from group membership. A group can grant specific application permissions and app sign-in, can sit under parent groups whose access it inherits, and can carry a written policy.
Open a group to see its members, the permissions it grants directly and the full set including inherited ones, and its policy.
You can inspect the details your permissions allow. These actions appear when their features and writes are enabled: **{{label:authentikCreateGroup}}**, **{{label:authentikEditGroup}}**, **{{label:authentikEditPermissions}}**, **Edit Policy**, **{{label:authentikGeneratePolicy}}**, **{{label:authentikAddMembers}}** and **{{label:authentikRemoveMembers}}**. Safeguards apply: you can only grant permissions you hold yourself, you cannot edit your own access, superuser groups cannot be managed, and granting identity administration rights needs a second person when two-person approval is enabled.
**How rows get created:** Create groups in Authentik or use Create Group when enabled. You read their live state from Authentik. An empty list means no groups match your query.
- key:table:authentik_group;section:enforcement

- key:table:authentik_group;field:permissions
summary:The application permissions this group grants directly, one per line.
content:|
These come from the group's permissions setting in Authentik. A permission looks like a screen or action name followed by what is allowed, for example read or has access.
summary:Everything this group grants once parent groups and the group's policy are included.
content:|
Use it to answer why a person has a permission. The permissions here are the full set for the group's members.

- key:table:authentik_group;field:attributes
summary:The raw attributes stored on the group in Authentik, as JSON text.
content:|
Needs the audit permission. Permissions, app access and policy are kept here, so edit them with the actions rather than by hand.
- key:table:authentik_policy_binding;slot:help
summary:The rules attached to an application that allow or deny specific groups or users from opening it.
content:|
Each binding points at a group or user (or a named policy) and says whether it grants or blocks access. They are evaluated in **{{label:authentik_policy_binding.order}}**, and the application's **Policy Engine Mode** decides how the results combine.
This list is read only and appears on an application under **Who can open it (policy bindings)**. Bindings are changed in Authentik.
**How rows get created:** Define application bindings in Authentik; you can inspect the live bindings here. An empty list means no bindings match your query.
- key:table:authentik_policy_binding;field:pk
summary:Authentik's internal id for the binding.
- key:table:authentik_policy_binding;field:target
summary:Internal id of the application the binding is attached to.
summary:When the rule stops applying, if it has an end date.
- key:table:authentik_role;slot:help
summary:Authentik roles, which bundle Authentik's own admin rights and can be attached to groups.
content:|
A role controls what someone may do inside Authentik itself, not inside this application. Only roles created by people are listed; ones Authentik manages itself are left out.
This list is read only. Managing roles from here is not available.
**How rows get created:** Define roles in Authentik; you can inspect its live, unmanaged roles here. An empty list means no unmanaged roles match your query.
- key:table:authentik_role;field:pk
summary:Authentik's internal id for the role.
- key:table:authentik_role;field:name
summary:The role's name.
- key:table:authentik_session;slot:help
summary:The sign-in sessions currently open in Authentik, with where and when each was last used.
content:|
A session is a signed-in browser or device. Use this to see who is signed in, from which address, and whether a session looks unfamiliar. A person's sessions also appear under **{{label:authentik_session}}** on their user record.
The list is read only and needs the audit permission. The **{{label:authentikRevokeSessions}}** action, which signs a person out everywhere, appears only when writes are switched on.
**How rows get created:** Authentik creates sessions when people sign in; you can inspect them live here. An empty list means no sessions match your query.
- key:table:authentik_session;field:uuid
summary:Authentik's id for the session.
- key:table:authentik_session;field:userPk
summary:The Authentik id of the person this sign-in session belongs to.

summary:The approximate location Authentik worked out from the last IP address, when it has one.
- key:table:authentik_session;field:asn
summary:The network provider Authentik matched to the last IP address, when it has one.
- key:table:authentik_token;slot:help
summary:Details of Authentik tokens and app passwords. The secret key is never shown.
content:|
This list holds the details of access tokens and app passwords: who owns each one, what it is for and when it expires. The secret key is never stored or shown here.
It is read from Authentik, subject to the host's configured cache lifetime.
You need the audit permission (or the permission to manage tokens) to see it. You normally reach it from the **Tokens and app passwords** section on a person's record.
Token actions are available when the host enables token management and writes, and you have the required permissions.
**How rows get created:** Create tokens in Authentik or use Create Token when enabled. This list reads live token metadata, never keys. An empty list means no tokens match your query and visible scope.
- key:table:authentik_token;field:identifier
summary:The token's unique name in Authentik, not its secret key.
- key:table:authentik_token;field:intent
summary:What the token is for in Authentik, for example an API token or an app password.
- key:table:authentik_token;field:username

summary:Review people and service accounts within your configured Authentik user scope.
content:|
**{{label:authentik_user}}** lists the accounts in Authentik. It is read live (with caching configured by your host), so changes made in the Authentik admin screens show up here too. Authentik stays the source of truth.
Open a person to see their identity, groups and roles, sessions, tokens and recent history.
**Changing people** (create, edit, deactivate and reactivate, add to group, send a password reset, reset MFA, revoke app passwords, revoke sessions) only appears when changes are switched on for this site. Otherwise the Identity screens are read-only and every change must be made in Authentik itself.
Some accounts are protected and cannot be changed from here: Authentik superusers, the service account that connects this site to Authentik, internal service accounts, and any account marked protected. You also cannot change your own account.
Every change needs a reason and is recorded under **{{label:authentik_admin_action}}**.
**How rows get created:** Create accounts in Authentik or use the enabled user actions. You read their live state from Authentik. An empty list means no accounts match your query and configured user scope.

**{{label:authentik_admin_action}}** records each attempt to change something in Authentik: who did it, what, to whom, why, and how it ended. A row is written before the call to Authentik is made, so failures and refusals are recorded too. Authentik's own event log also gets a matching entry naming the person who did it.
Use it to answer who changed someone's access and when, and to see the state before and after.
You need the audit permission to read it. Rows are written by the system only; you cannot add or edit them by hand.
**How rows get created:** Your administrative actions write audit records before making changes in Authentik. An empty list means no audit records match your query.
summary:The id of the matching entry in Authentik's own event log, when one was written.
- key:table:authentik_admin_action;field:approver
summary:The second person who approved the change, when approval was needed.
- key:table:authentik_approval_request;slot:help
summary:Changes waiting for a second person to approve before they are sent to Authentik.
content:|
Some changes need two people, so one person cannot grant themselves power. When two-person approval is enabled, adding identity administration permissions requires approval. Your host can also require approval for policy changes. The first person's request waits here. Nothing has changed in Authentik yet.
A different person with the approve permission opens the request and runs **{{label:authentikApprove}}**, or **{{label:authentikReject}}**. You cannot approve your own request.
Requests expire after 24 hours; ask again if one has expired. When approved, the change is checked again against live data, so it can still fail if something changed in the meantime.
Waiting requests also show on the Identity home under **Needs attention**.
**How rows get created:** Changes requiring a second person create approval requests. An empty list means no requests match your query; completed requests remain recorded.
summary:Why an approved change failed, or the word expired. Blank otherwise.
- key:table:authentik_policy;slot:help
summary:'The saved policy of each group:a list of what its members may do in this app.'
content:|
A **policy** is a document saved on a group in Authentik. It lists the apps, tables, actions and reports the group's members may use, and what they may do (open, read, add, edit, delete). Members of the group, and of groups below it, receive those permissions when they sign in.
This list shows the last policy saved from this application for each group, with who saved it and when. Authentik holds the live document.
Saved policies only take effect at sign-in when policy enforcement is on. The banner on this screen says whether it is. When signed-in users receive changed permissions depends on the host's authentication and session configuration.
Use **{{label:authentikEditPolicyRecord}}** to change one. It needs the policies permission, and you can only grant permissions you hold yourself.
**How rows get created:** Saving a group policy records its document and author here. Authentik holds the live policy. An empty list means no saved policy records match your query.

Enter the person's email, an optional full name and a reason. You need permission to manage users, writes must be enabled, and your host must configure an enrollment flow. The email must not already belong to an existing user.
Review the invitation before continuing. Authentik creates a single-use invitation that expires after seven days and sends the email. You can inspect it in **{{label:authentik_invitation}}** or withdraw it with **{{label:authentikCancelInvitation}}**.

- key:process:authentikDeleteUser;slot:help
summary:Permanently delete an eligible account from Authentik.
content:|
Use **{{label:authentikDeactivateUser}}** if you want to keep the account and its history. Deletion is permanent and requires the host to enable deletion as well as user management and writes.
Give a reason and type the username to confirm, then check **Review** before continuing. You cannot delete protected accounts, your own account or the last identity administrator. You need permission to manage users.
- key:process:authentikDeleteGroup;slot:help
summary:Permanently delete an empty group and the access it grants.
content:|
Remove the group's members and child groups first. Deletion removes the group with its permissions, application access and policy. You need permission to manage groups, and your host must enable deletion, group management and writes.
Give a reason and type the group name to confirm. Check **Review** before continuing. Superuser groups and changes that would remove the last identity administrator are refused.
