# Juicebox Enterprise RBAC

## Overview

Juicebox search/enrichment/export operations touch sensitive candidate data and need role-based gates. This skill defines four roles (admin, recruiter, hiring_manager, viewer), wires permission guards into Express middleware, isolates candidate pools by team, and logs every access decision for audit.

## Prerequisites

- Juicebox API credentials (`username` and `api_token`)
- Node.js 18+ with TypeScript and Express
- Database with Prisma ORM (PostgreSQL recommended)
- Identity provider for SSO (Okta, Auth0, or Azure AD) on enterprise plan

## Instructions

### Step 1: Define roles and their permissions

Map four business roles to granular permissions covering search, enrichment, contact reveal, export, and administration.

```typescript
// lib/rbac/permissions.ts
export enum Permission {
  SEARCH_READ = 'search:read',
  SEARCH_ADVANCED = 'search:advanced',
  SEARCH_EXPORT = 'search:export',

  PROFILE_READ = 'profile:read',
  PROFILE_ENRICH = 'profile:enrich',
  PROFILE_CONTACT = 'profile:contact',
  PROFILE_NOTES = 'profile:notes',

  TEAM_VIEW = 'team:view',
  TEAM_MANAGE = 'team:manage',

  ADMIN_SETTINGS = 'admin:settings',
  ADMIN_BILLING = 'admin:billing',
  ADMIN_AUDIT = 'admin:audit'
}

export enum Role {
  ADMIN = 'admin',
  RECRUITER = 'recruiter',
  HIRING_MANAGER = 'hiring_manager',
  VIEWER = 'viewer'
}

export const rolePermissions: Record<Role, Permission[]> = {
  [Role.ADMIN]: Object.values(Permission),

  [Role.RECRUITER]: [
    Permission.SEARCH_READ,
    Permission.SEARCH_ADVANCED,
    Permission.SEARCH_EXPORT,
    Permission.PROFILE_READ,
    Permission.PROFILE_ENRICH,
    Permission.PROFILE_CONTACT,
    Permission.PROFILE_NOTES,
    Permission.TEAM_VIEW
  ],

  [Role.HIRING_MANAGER]: [
    Permission.SEARCH_READ,
    Permission.PROFILE_READ,
    Permission.PROFILE_NOTES,
    Permission.TEAM_VIEW
  ],

  [Role.VIEWER]: [
    Permission.SEARCH_READ,
    Permission.PROFILE_READ,
    Permission.TEAM_VIEW
  ]
};
```

| Role | Search | Enrich | Contact reveal | Export | Team manage | Admin |
|------|--------|--------|----------------|--------|-------------|-------|
| admin | all | yes | yes | yes | yes | yes |
| recruiter | basic + advanced | yes | yes | yes | view only | no |
| hiring_manager | basic only | no | no | no | view only | no |
| viewer | basic only | no | no | no | view only | no |

### Step 2: Build the permission checker

A stateless checker that resolves a user's effective permissions from their role plus any custom overrides.

```typescript
// lib/rbac/permission-checker.ts
import { Permission, Role, rolePermissions } from './permissions';

interface User {
  id: string;
  role: Role;
  customPermissions?: Permission[];
  teamIds: string[];
}

export class PermissionChecker {
  private readonly effectivePermissions: Set<Permission>;

  constructor(private user: User) {
    const base = rolePermissions[user.role] ?? [];
    const custom = user.customPermissions ?? [];
    this.effectivePermissions = new Set([...base, ...custom]);
  }

  has(permission: Permission): boolean {
    return this.effectivePermissions.has(permission);
  }

  hasAll(permissions: Permission[]): boolean {
    return permissions.every(p => this.effectivePermissions.has(p));
  }

  hasAny(permissions: Permission[]): boolean {
    return permissions.some(p => this.effectivePermissions.has(p));
  }

  canAccessTeam(teamId: string): boolean {
    if (this.user.role === Role.ADMIN) return true;
    return this.user.teamIds.includes(teamId);
  }
}
```

### Step 3: Wire permission guards into Express middleware

Create reusable middleware that rejects requests before they reach Juicebox API calls.

```typescript
// middleware/authorization.ts
import { Request, Response, NextFunction } from 'express';
import { Permission } from '../lib/rbac/permissions';
import { PermissionChecker } from '../lib/rbac/permission-checker';

export function requirePermissions(...permissions: Permission[]) {
  return (req: Request, res: Response, next: NextFunction) => {
    if (!req.user) {
      return res.status(401).json({ error: 'Authentication required' });
    }

    const checker = new PermissionChecker(req.user);

    if (!checker.hasAll(permissions)) {
      logAccessDenied(req.user.id, permissions, req.path);
      return res.status(403).json({
        error: 'Insufficient permissions',
        required: permissions,
        your_role: req.user.role
      });
    }

    next();
  };
}

function logAccessDenied(userId: string, required: Permission[], path: string): void {
  console.log(JSON.stringify({
    event: 'access_denied',
    userId,
    required,
    path,
    timestamp: new Date().toISOString()
  }));
}

// Mount on routes
import { Router } from 'express';
const router = Router();

// Search — all roles can read, but export needs SEARCH_EXPORT
router.get('/api/search',
  requirePermissions(Permission.SEARCH_READ),
  searchController.search
);

router.post('/api/search/export',
  requirePermissions(Permission.SEARCH_READ, Permission.SEARCH_EXPORT),
  searchController.exportResults
);

// Enrichment — recruiter+ only
router.post('/api/profiles/:id/enrich',
  requirePermissions(Permission.PROFILE_READ, Permission.PROFILE_ENRICH),
  profileController.enrich
);

// Contact reveal — recruiter+ only
router.get('/api/profiles/:id/contact',
  requirePermissions(Permission.PROFILE_CONTACT),
  profileController.getContact
);
```

### Step 4: Implement team-based access control

Restrict which candidate pools each team can see. A recruiter on the "Engineering" team cannot view candidates sourced by the "Sales" team.

```typescript
// lib/rbac/team-access.ts
import { PrismaClient } from '@prisma/client';

export class TeamAccessControl {
  constructor(private db: PrismaClient) {}

  async filterByTeamAccess<T extends { teamId: string }>(
    userId: string,
    userTeamIds: string[],
    items: T[]
  ): Promise<T[]> {
    return items.filter(item => userTeamIds.includes(item.teamId));
  }

  async assertTeamAccess(userId: string, targetTeamId: string): Promise<void> {
    const membership = await this.db.teamMemberships.findFirst({
      where: { userId, teamId: targetTeamId, active: true }
    });

    if (!membership) {
      throw new TeamAccessError(
        `User ${userId} is not a member of team ${targetTeamId}`
      );
    }
  }
}

export class TeamAccessError extends Error {
  readonly statusCode = 403;
  constructor(message: string) {
    super(message);
    this.name = 'TeamAccessError';
  }
}

// Middleware that filters search results by team
export function enforceTeamScope() {
  return async (req: Request, res: Response, next: NextFunction) => {
    const checker = new PermissionChecker(req.user);

    // Admins see everything
    if (req.user.role === 'admin') return next();

    // Inject team filter into Juicebox search params
    req.juiceboxFilters = {
      ...req.juiceboxFilters,
      teamIds: req.user.teamIds
    };

    next();
  };
}
```

### Step 5: Add audit logging for every access decision

Log grants and denials with enough context for compliance review.

```typescript
// lib/rbac/audit-log.ts
import { Permission } from './permissions';

interface AuditEntry {
  userId: string;
  action: string;
  resource: string;
  resourceId?: string;
  granted: boolean;
  permissions: Permission[];
  ip: string;
  userAgent: string;
  timestamp: Date;
}

export class RBACAuditLog {
  constructor(private db: PrismaClient) {}

  async log(entry: AuditEntry): Promise<void> {
    await this.db.rbacAuditLog.create({ data: entry });

    if (!entry.granted) {
      await this.checkForBruteForce(entry.userId);
    }
  }

  private async checkForBruteForce(userId: string): Promise<void> {
    const oneHourAgo = new Date(Date.now() - 3_600_000);
    const denials = await this.db.rbacAuditLog.count({
      where: {
        userId,
        granted: false,
        timestamp: { gte: oneHourAgo }
      }
    });

    if (denials > 10) {
      console.log(JSON.stringify({
        event: 'security_alert',
        type: 'excessive_access_denials',
        userId,
        denials_last_hour: denials,
        severity: 'high'
      }));
    }
  }

  async getAuditTrail(
    userId: string,
    since: Date
  ): Promise<AuditEntry[]> {
    return this.db.rbacAuditLog.findMany({
      where: { userId, timestamp: { gte: since } },
      orderBy: { timestamp: 'desc' },
      take: 500
    });
  }
}
```

## Output

- `lib/rbac/permissions.ts` — Role enum, Permission enum, role-to-permission mapping
- `lib/rbac/permission-checker.ts` — stateless checker with `has`, `hasAll`, `hasAny`, `canAccessTeam`
- `middleware/authorization.ts` — Express middleware factory `requirePermissions()` with route examples
- `lib/rbac/team-access.ts` — team membership check, result filtering, team scope middleware
- `lib/rbac/audit-log.ts` — audit entry persistence with brute-force detection

## Error Handling

| Error | Cause | Resolution |
|-------|-------|------------|
| `401 Authentication required` | No user object on request (JWT missing or invalid) | Verify JWT middleware runs before authorization middleware |
| `403 Insufficient permissions` | User's role lacks required permission for the endpoint | Check `rolePermissions` mapping; grant via custom permissions if role is correct |
| `403 TeamAccessError` | User tried to access a candidate pool owned by another team | Add user to the target team via admin panel, or use admin role |
| `security_alert: excessive_access_denials` | Same user denied 10+ times in one hour | Investigate whether user role is misconfigured or account is compromised |
| `P2002 Unique constraint failed` | Duplicate audit log entry (race condition) | Add `@@unique([userId, timestamp, action])` with millisecond precision, or use `createMany` with `skipDuplicates` |

## Examples

**Guard a Juicebox enrichment endpoint and log the decision:**

```typescript
import { PermissionChecker } from './lib/rbac/permission-checker';
import { RBACAuditLog } from './lib/rbac/audit-log';
import { Permission, Role } from './lib/rbac/permissions';
import { prisma } from './lib/db';

const user = { id: 'u_123', role: Role.HIRING_MANAGER, teamIds: ['team_eng'], customPermissions: [] };
const checker = new PermissionChecker(user);
const audit = new RBACAuditLog(prisma);

const canEnrich = checker.has(Permission.PROFILE_ENRICH);
// false — hiring managers cannot enrich

await audit.log({
  userId: user.id,
  action: 'profile:enrich',
  resource: 'profile',
  resourceId: 'prof_456',
  granted: canEnrich,
  permissions: [Permission.PROFILE_ENRICH],
  ip: '10.0.1.50',
  userAgent: 'internal-service/1.0',
  timestamp: new Date()
});
```

**Filter search results by team scope:**

```typescript
import { TeamAccessControl } from './lib/rbac/team-access';
import { prisma } from './lib/db';

const teamAccess = new TeamAccessControl(prisma);

const allResults = [
  { id: 'p1', name: 'Alice', teamId: 'team_eng' },
  { id: 'p2', name: 'Bob', teamId: 'team_sales' },
  { id: 'p3', name: 'Carol', teamId: 'team_eng' }
];

const visible = await teamAccess.filterByTeamAccess(
  'u_123',
  ['team_eng'],
  allResults
);
// [{ id: 'p1', name: 'Alice', teamId: 'team_eng' }, { id: 'p3', name: 'Carol', teamId: 'team_eng' }]
```
