Four routes, all gated by `USER_MANAGE` (D-015 — rt_lead only): - `GET /api/v1/users` paginated, optional `?type=` filter. Returns `Page[UserRead]`. - `POST /api/v1/users` hashes the password with bcrypt, attaches the user to the matching F11 group (rt_operator → `rt_operator`, rt_lead → `rt_lead`, soc_analyst → `soc_analyst`). Returns 201 with `UserRead`, or 409 `email_taken` on duplicate email (active or already-disabled). - `PATCH /api/v1/users/<uid>` partial. Changing `type` realigns the user's *global* F11 membership (engagement_id IS NULL) and leaves per-engagement memberships untouched. Password rotation rehashes with bcrypt; audit row carries a `password_rotated` flag rather than logging the value. - `DELETE /api/v1/users/<uid>` sets `disabled_at = now()`. Idempotent — a second call on a disabled user returns 204 without an extra audit row. Hard-delete is intentionally absent: keeps audit-trail FKs valid and matches NF-AUDIT (we never lose actor-id linkage). `_TYPE_TO_GROUP` translates `UserType` enum → `GroupName`; `_resolve_group` loads the corresponding row from `group` (raises 500 if the seed didn't run, surfaced through the global JSON error handler).

Local dev
make install # uv venv + pip install -e .[dev]
make db-up # $(CONTAINER) compose up -d postgres (auto-detect docker|podman)
make db-bootstrap # one-time: create the mimic_audit_writer role (see below)

Audit writer role (dev)
mimic_audit_writer is provisioned by the Ansible playbook in production
(decision D-010). For local development, create it manually after make db-up:
# Substitute "podman" for "docker" if your runtime is Podman.
$(command -v docker || command -v podman) exec -it mimic-postgres \
psql -U mimic_app -d mimic \
-c "CREATE ROLE mimic_audit_writer LOGIN PASSWORD 'pick-a-dev-secret';"
Then expose the same secret in MIMIC_DATABASE_AUDIT_URL in your .env. The
Alembic migration grants the INSERT-only permission on audit_log against
this role; if it does not exist, the grant block is a no-op (idempotent).
What sprint 0 ships
- Full §8 data model + Alembic initial migration (Postgres-specific constraints: audit_log write-only role, soc_session hash, c2_credential Fernet column).
C2ConnectorABC + dataclasses +payload_typeenum + factory. No real Mythic/Home implementation (blocked on PR1/PR2).- Jinja2 SandboxedEnvironment +
regex_extractfilter (re2). - Local auth (bcrypt + Flask session) + group-based RBAC matching the F11 permission matrix.
- Flat CRUD on engagements / hosts / TTPs / scenarios.
- pytest baseline + testcontainers Postgres scaffolding.
