- backend/app/services/mitre_seed.py: stdlib-only STIX 2.1 parser (urllib +
hashlib + json). Pinned to enterprise-attack-19.0.json with sha256
df520ea0775a57db7bff760145b02fed89290802913e056b7ed5970b02f3626a (~52 MB,
~1.1 s parse). Resolves sub-technique parents via
relationship[subtechnique-of] with a T1003.001→T1003 dotted-id fallback;
upserts on external_id, rebuilds the technique↔tactic M2M in a single
transaction so external readers never see an empty join. Persists
mitre_last_sync, mitre_version, mitre_source_url in the settings table.
- Custom URLs MUST be paired with expected_sha256 OR allow_unverified=true —
refuses silent integrity bypass.
- CLI: flask metamorph seed-mitre [--source path|url]
[--checksum-sha256 hex] [--skip-checksum]. Make target wraps it.
- Docker: /data/mitre/ chowned to the metamorph user at build; named volume
metamorph_mitre mounted from compose for cross-restart cache.

Permission catalogue (services/permissions_seed.py)
- 31 atomic codes across 10 families: user.*, group.*, invitation.*,
test_template.*, scenario_template.*, mission.* (incl.
mission.write_red_fields + mission.write_blue_fields),
detection_level.{read,update}, setting.{read,update}, mitre.sync.
- Default bindings: admin = all 31; redteam = 8 (catalogue read + mission.
{read,create,update,archive,write_red_fields} + detection_level.read);
blueteam = 5 (catalogue read + mission.{read,write_blue_fields} +
detection_level.read).
- Seed runs at boot AND after /setup so a freshly truncated DB (via
/diag/reset) gets the bindings back via the bootstrap path. Idempotent +
additive (never removes a perm from a system group).
Users admin (services/users.py + api/users.py)
- list (q + is_active filter + pagination), get, patch (display_name /
locale / is_active with tri-state sentinel for clear-vs-unset),
soft-delete, set groups.
- Last-admin protection on update (deactivate), delete, and group-strip
(refusing to remove the admin group from the last active admin).
Groups admin (services/groups.py + api/groups.py)
- Full CRUD with system-group protection (no rename, no delete on
admin/redteam/blueteam).
- PUT /groups/{id}/permissions sets the perm list.
- Admin system group's perm set is locked to the full catalogue
(SystemGroupProtected → 409) — preserves the bypass invariant even if a
future refactor moves to perm-based checks.
Permissions read-only (api/permissions.py)
- GET /permissions returns the catalogue (admin or group.read holders).
/diag/reset extension
- After truncate + token mint, the limiter is also reset (limiter.reset())
so the Playwright suite doesn't hit 10/min budgets across spec files.
Guarded by limiter.enabled to no-op in APP_ENV=test.
Rate-limit scope (core/rate_limit.py)
- enabled = APP_ENV in ("prod", "staging"). A staging deployment serves
humans, so it gets the limits too. Dev/test stay unthrottled for
Playwright ergonomics. Spec §6 NF-security is an operator-facing
requirement.
Frontend chrome
- components/RequireAdmin.tsx + ui/Modal.tsx (reusable centered dialog
with accessible name + Escape + backdrop-click).
- Layout.tsx shows Admin nav links only when is_admin === true. Server
remains the arbiter — non-admins hitting /admin/* get redirected to /.
Frontend pages
- pages/AdminUsersPage.tsx, AdminGroupsPage.tsx, AdminInvitationsPage.tsx
with edit modals using TanStack Query mutations + multi-select for perms
grouped by family + copy-once invitation URL display.
- lib/admin.ts: shared types + query keys + groupPermsByFamily helper.
- lib/api.ts: apiPatch / apiPut / apiDelete added.
Playwright config (e2e/playwright.config.ts)
- workers: 1 + fullyParallel: false: spec files share the live Postgres,
so concurrent /diag/reset calls clobber each other. Intra-file order
preserved via test.describe.configure({ mode: 'serial' }).
Testing
- backend/tests/test_rbac.py: 15 integration tests (39 backend total — 1
health + 8 schema + 15 auth + 15 RBAC).
- e2e/tests/m3-rbac.spec.ts: 8 Playwright tests covering DoD §10 #2/#3
(28 e2e total — 8 M0 + 4 M1 + 8 M2 + 8 M3).
- tasks/testing-m3.md.
DoD: make test-api → 39 passed, make e2e → 28 passed. Spec-reviewer pass
applied (admin perm invariant + staging rate-limit scope).
