knacky 38b35c933a feat(backend): wire auth endpoints + dev CORS (sprint 1)
Three login endpoints under /api/v1/auth/ + dev-only CORS so the Vite
frontend can drive the session cookie.

- POST /login validates local credentials and sets a Flask session cookie.
  Returns the CurrentUser shape on 200 (user_id, username=email,
  display_name, role, permissions, groups). Uniform 401 invalid_credentials
  on bad password or unknown user; a bcrypt round against a dummy hash runs
  even on unknown users so the request timing does not enumerate accounts.
  Audits an auth.login row and bumps user.last_login_at.
- POST /logout (login_required) clears the session, returns 204, audits an
  auth.logout row.
- GET /me returns the current principal or 401 not_authenticated. Used by
  the frontend at boot to rehydrate state.

Side wiring:
- LoginManager.unauthorized_handler emits the same {error, message} JSON
  envelope so @login_required 401s match the rest of the API surface.
- api/_helpers gains `serialize_current_user(AuthUser) -> CurrentUser` and
  `api_error(code, message, status)` — used by the auth blueprint and
  available to follow-up endpoints.
- AuthUser carries display_name + user_type now; identity.load_user routes
  through a new `authuser_from_orm()` helper that the login endpoint also
  uses so /login and the user_loader produce identical shapes.
- Dev-only CORS via flask-cors on /api/*, gated on
  MIMIC_ENV=development AND MIMIC_CORS_ORIGINS non-empty. Prod keeps
  same-origin (reverse proxy fronts the SPA + API).
- LoginRequest + CurrentUser DTOs added to mimic.schemas.

No frontend-visible change to engagements (sprint-0 already shipped
created_by_id, audit log, F11 scope).

Mimic

Internal BAS (Breach & Attack Simulation) platform for the Red Team. Replays TTPs from engagement journals or an internal ATT&CK library against client infrastructure through VPN/relay, in white-glove coordination with the SOC.

Output: a coverage report mapped to MITRE ATT&CK — measurable, reproducible, archived.

Status

ready-with-prereqs — spec frozen on 2026-05-19, 23 review patches integrated. Code start blocked on:

  • PR1 — Mythic API documentation + pinned version (lead RT)
  • PR2 — Internal C2 interface spec + journal export example (internal C2 team)
  • PR3 — RT graphic charter for the PDF report (lead RT)

While PR1/PR2/PR3 are open, sprint 0 focuses on the unblocked skeleton.

Spec

The authoritative spec lives in the RT-SecondBrain vault: Projects/Mimic — Spec.md. Do not duplicate it here.

In-repo documentation:

  • CHANGELOG.md — chronological log of features, decisions, rollbacks.
  • tasks/spec-decisions.md — implementation arbitrations on top of the spec.
  • tasks/todo.md — current sprint backlog.

Stack (frozen)

  • Backend Python 3.12 / Flask / Flask-SocketIO / SQLAlchemy 2 / Pydantic 2 / Alembic / WeasyPrint / pytest + testcontainers / ruff / mypy strict
  • Frontend TypeScript / React 18+ / Vite / Tailwind 4 / TanStack Query 5 / Recharts / Playwright
  • Storage Postgres (prod) / SQLite (pure-logic unit tests) / testcontainers Postgres (audit log, RBAC, write-only role — incl. unit tests of Postgres-specific behavior, per H38)
  • Deploy Docker images + Ansible deployment playbook (per D-010). Reverse proxy (Caddy + TLS + IP allowlist) handled by existing RT infrastructure, out of Mimic scope (D-007).

Build & run

make targets land at the end of sprint 0. For now the repo is skeleton-only.
