8e442ed4bc fix(oidc): allow OrgRoleIDScope downscoping in token exchange (#12563)
# Which Problems Are Solved

- Token exchange rejects `urn:zitadel:iam:org:roles🆔{orgID}` when
that scope is not already present on the subject or actor token
(`invalid_scope`).
- A documented least-privilege pattern — exchanging a broad access token
for one whose roles claims are limited to a single organization — has
been broken since the v4.15.3 token-exchange hardening and was not
restored by #12312.
- A naive allow-any-`roles:id` exception would let a previously narrowed
token widen again (switch org filter, or drop the filter and get all
role orgs), including via an actor token's filter on actor-path
exchanges.
- A client-requested bare `urn:zitadel:iam:org:roles🆔` (empty org id)
is not a meaningful filter and should be rejected on exchange.

# How the Problems Are Solved

- Treats `OrgRoleIDScope` as a restriction filter with downscope-only
semantics via `applyOrgRoleIDScopeDownscoping(requested,
ceilingScopes)`:
- union / standard exchange passes the **subject** token scopes as the
ceiling (actor filters ignored)
- impersonation (scopeless `user_id` / `id_token` subject) passes the
**actor** token scopes as the ceiling
- ceiling unfiltered → any requested `roles:id` is allowed (broad →
narrow)
  - ceiling filtered → requested filters must be ⊆ that set
- ceiling filtered but request omits them → inherit the ceiling (omit
must not re-widen)
- Rejects a **client-requested** bare `urn:zitadel:iam:org:roles🆔` in
`validateTokenExchangeScopes` after normalize (before empty-request
fallback). Input tokens may still carry the bare prefix as a degenerate
ceiling; empty-request / omit inherit does not re-trigger the rejection.
- Keeps non-restriction scopes on the existing subject ∪ actor presence
checks.
- Adds unit coverage for downscope, further downscope, widen rejection,
omit-inherit, mixed subject/actor filters, empty-scope access/JWT
subjects, and bare-prefix request/ceiling cases.
- Adds an integration test for broad → `roles:id` filtered roles, plus a
second exchange that rejects widening to another org.
- Documents downscope-only and omit-inherit behavior in the reserved
scopes table and the token exchange guide.

# Additional Changes

- Updates the token-exchange guide Scope section to reflect that
authorization-related reserved scopes must already be present on input
tokens (aligned with the v4.15.3 hardening), rather than suggesting
scope can be freely extended.

# Additional Context

- Closes #12413
- Follow-up for PR #12312
- Related discussion in #11869 (recommended `roles:id` workaround; this
restores that path for token exchange without allowing filter widening)
- Behavior note for release notes: during token exchange, an existing
`urn:zitadel:iam:org:roles🆔*` filter on the subject is inherited when
omitted from the request, so role claims cannot re-widen.

318bfc36d7 feat: native app links for passkeys (#12580)
# Which Problems Are Solved

- Native iOS/Android passkeys need OS trust files on the ZITADEL domain;
without them, Associated Domains / App Links verification fails.
- Operators could not configure iOS Team ID + Bundle ID or Android
package name + SHA-256 fingerprints on OIDC apps.
- `/.well-known/apple-app-site-association` and
`/.well-known/assetlinks.json` were not served from application config.

# How the Problems Are Solved

- Add iOS/Android app-link fields on OIDC app create/update (Application
API v2 + Management), with validation.
- Persist and project those fields; query active app-link configs
instance-wide.
- Serve AASA (`webcredentials`) and Digital Asset Links
(`get_login_creds`) from well-known paths, with configurable
`Cache-Control` and fingerprint normalization at serve time.
- Console UI to edit the fields, with links to the well-known endpoints.
- Operator docs for configuration, endpoints, caching, and verification.

# Additional Changes

- Document on API fields that well-known responses may be HTTP-cached
and platform verifiers may delay propagation.
- Runtime config: `WellKnown.AppLinksCacheControlMaxAge` (default `5m`;
`0` → `no-store`).

# Additional Context

- Closes #12497
- Implemented and reviewed as stack:
  - #12531 API contract
  - #12532 storage wiring
  - #12536 well-known endpoints
  - #12537 console
  - #12547 docs

jmaretteandGitHub 9070b537d2 feat(oidc): add RFC 7592 dynamic client management (#12315)
# Which Problems Are Solved

#12313 lets clients register themselves as OIDC applications (RFC 7591),
but a dynamically registered client has no way to manage itself
afterwards:

- The registration response returns no `registration_access_token` and
no `registration_client_uri`, which RFC 7591 and 7592 clients (including
the MCP SDKs) expect in order to manage their own registration.
- There is no way to read back, update or delete a registration without
an operator acting on the client's behalf through the Console or the
Management API. A client that needs to rotate a redirect URI has to ask
a human.

# How the Problems Are Solved

Implement the [OAuth 2.0 Dynamic Client Registration Management Protocol
(RFC 7592)](https://datatracker.ietf.org/doc/html/rfc7592): `GET`, `PUT`
and `DELETE` on `/oauth/v2/register/{client_id}`, wired through the same
`op.WithSetRouter` hook as the registration endpoint.

## Control plane: the same security settings, no new switch

The management endpoints are gated on the
`DynamicClientRegistrationSettings.enabled` introduced in #12313. No new
setting, no feature flag: a client that may register may manage what it
registered. When registration is disabled the endpoints answer `404`,
exactly as `POST /oauth/v2/register` does.

`allow_unauthenticated` selects the registration mode and does not apply
here, because the registration access token authorizes these endpoints
in both modes.

## Authorization: the registration access token, and nothing else

RFC 7592 §3 defines the credential as the registration access token
issued at registration and bound to a single client, not a user
credential. So a client manages only itself, proving it with the token
it was handed:

| | Registration (`POST`) | Management (`GET` / `PUT` / `DELETE`) |
| --- | --- | --- |
| Credential | Access token, or none in open mode | Registration access
token |
| Permission | `project.app.register_dynamic` in token mode | None |

Neither `project.app.register_dynamic`, which governs who may *create*
clients, nor `project.app.write` applies to the management endpoints.
One authorization path per endpoint is easier to reason about than two,
and there is no user identity to check against in the first place.
Operators keep managing dynamically registered clients through the
Management API and the Console, like any other application; they cannot
obtain a client's registration access token, by design.

Status codes: a missing, malformed or non matching token is `401`; a
client that no longer exists is `404`. The token's `client_id` is
checked against the path before any lookup, so a token bound to another
client is rejected without touching the database.

## The token itself

- **Stored like a client secret.** Only its passwap hash is persisted,
through a new
`project.application.config.oidc.registration_token.changed` event; the
plain token leaves the server exactly once, in the response that issues
it.
- **Bound to its client and organization** through authenticated
encryption with the instance key, the same mechanism as refresh tokens.
The opaque token handed to the client encrypts
`client_id:org_id:secret`, so the endpoint recovers the binding before
checking the secret against the stored hash.
- **Verified in O(1)** against the hash on the projection, folded into
the client lookup the handler already does, with a strongly consistent
fallback to the eventstore so a token that was just rotated is accepted
before it is projected.
- **Rotated on update** (RFC 7592 §4.4) and invalidated implicitly when
the client is deleted. A read does not rotate it. Every update rotates,
including one that changes no metadata, so a client always gets a usable
token back.

## Reusing the existing persistence

A small refactor extracts the shared OIDC application creation and
update logic (`pushOIDCApplication` gains a variadic `extraEvents`, and
`oidcApplicationChangeEvent` is lifted out of `UpdateOIDCApplication`),
so the dynamic commands reuse it without the permission check. The
registration token event is pushed atomically with the application, so a
registered client is never left unmanageable.

# Additional Changes

- Setup step **74** adds the `registration_token` column to the
`apps7_oidc_configs` projection, with a reducer for the new event
modelled on the client secret. Applications are not part of the
relational storage projection, so there is no second write path to keep
in sync.
- The registration response (`POST`) now also carries
`registration_access_token` and `registration_client_uri`.
- Docs: a "Manage a registration" section in the dynamic client
registration guide covering the three operations, the authorization
model, token rotation and the new limitations, plus the management
endpoints on the OIDC endpoints page.
- Unit tests for the command layer (issue, verify, rotate, update,
delete), the projection reducer, and the token binding and response
mapping. An integration test covers the full lifecycle (register, read,
update with rotation, delete, read again with `404`), a token bound to
another client, and the endpoints not being served when registration is
disabled. None of the integration calls carries a user access token,
which pins down that the management endpoints require no permission of
their own.

# Additional Context

- Part of the MCP authorization effort in #9810. Follow-up to #12313
(RFC 7591), which is now merged; this branch has been rebased on `main`
and carries the settings and authorization model agreed there.
- **Open question for the review**: the authorization model above
(registration access token only, no operator path through these
endpoints) is the one I proposed when #12313 was reviewed, but it was
never explicitly confirmed. If you would rather have `project.app.write`
also grant access to a client in the operator's own organization, that
is a contained change in `authorizeClientManagement`.
- Rotation is eventually consistent: right after an update the previous
token may keep working for a brief moment until the rotation is
projected, while the new token works immediately through the eventstore
fallback. This matches how ZITADEL validates access tokens, where
revocation is likewise eventually consistent. It is documented in the
guide and asserted as such in the integration test.
- A database migration is introduced for the new projection column. No
proto change and no new feature flag.
- Verified locally: full build, `go vet` including `-tags integration`,
`golangci-lint` with 0 issues, and the unit suites for every touched
package. As before, I cannot run the integration suite here, so CI
remains the check on it.

jmaretteandGitHub f34cc45eac feat(oidc): add RFC 7591 dynamic client registration (#12313)
# Which Problems Are Solved

ZITADEL cannot currently be used as an OAuth 2.0 Authorization Server by
clients that need to register themselves at runtime:

- There is no [OAuth 2.0 Dynamic Client Registration (RFC
7591)](https://datatracker.ietf.org/doc/html/rfc7591) endpoint, and no
`registration_endpoint` is advertised in the discovery document.
- This blocks [Model Context Protocol
(MCP)](https://modelcontextprotocol.io) clients (Claude Desktop,
claude.ai, Cursor, the MCP SDKs), whose OAuth 2.1 authorization profile
expects an Authorization Server that supports dynamic client
registration. They self-register before any user context exists and only
then start the authorization code + PKCE flow.

# How the Problems Are Solved

## Control plane: instance security settings

No feature flag and no runtime config. A
`DynamicClientRegistrationSettings` message is nested under the instance
`SecuritySettings` in `settings/v2`, next to `embedded_iframe` and
`enable_impersonation`:

| `enabled` | `allow_unauthenticated` | Behaviour |
| --- | --- | --- |
| `false` (default) | — | `POST /oauth/v2/register` returns `404`,
`registration_endpoint` absent from discovery |
| `true` | `false` (default) | Token-gated registration, client homed in
the token's organization |
| `true` | `true` | Open registration for MCP hosts, client homed in the
instance default organization |

Both values are carried on `authz.Instance` and loaded with the
instance, exactly like `EnableImpersonation`, so the discovery document
and the endpoint read them per request without an extra query.
`allow_unauthenticated` implies `enabled` in both implementations, so a
single setting closes the endpoint.

Adding the two columns bumps the projection table to
`projections.security_policies3`, following what the impersonation
setting did for `security_policies2`.

## Authorization: a dedicated permission, not `project.app.write`

- New org-scoped permission **`project.app.register_dynamic`**, granted
by default to `ORG_OWNER`, `IAM_OWNER` and `IAM_ORG_MANAGER` — in both
`InternalAuthZ` and `SystemAuthZ`, mirroring where `project.app.write`
already lives.
- New built-in role **`ORG_DYNAMIC_CLIENT_REGISTRAR`** carrying only
that permission, so a service user can self-register clients without
gaining write access to the organization's existing applications.
- Open mode (`allow_unauthenticated = true`) requires no token and no
permission: that is the MCP self-register path.
- A valid token whose user lacks the permission is answered with **`403
insufficient_scope`** (RFC 6750 §3.1) rather than `401 invalid_token`,
so a caller can tell "your token is bad" from "your token may not do
this". `verifyAccessToken` also reports invalid tokens as permission
denied, so the authorization failure is marked explicitly to keep the
two apart.

The check runs once, at the endpoint, right after the token is verified
and before any state is created, so it also gates the auto-provisioning
of the organization's DCR project. The permission itself lives in the
command layer next to the others
(`Commands.CheckPermissionRegisterDynamicClient`). As the OIDC endpoints
are not behind the authorization interceptor, the caller identity is
derived from the verified token, the way token exchange does for the
impersonating actor.

## Registration itself

- **Registered clients are ordinary OIDC applications.** The endpoint
reuses the existing application-creation events
(`NewApplicationAddedEvent` and `NewOIDCConfigAddedEvent`), so the whole
token, authorization and introspection flow keeps working unchanged.
They are stored in a dedicated, auto-provisioned project named `ZITADEL
DCR` per organization (name lookup), so they do not pollute the
`IAMProject` or other projects.
- Input is validated with the existing `GetOIDCV1Compliance` rules;
`private_key_jwt` and `jwks`/`jwks_uri` are rejected with
`invalid_client_metadata`.
- **Endpoint wiring without forking the library.** `NewServer` calls
`op.RegisterServer` instead of `op.RegisterLegacyServer`, so the new
route can be added through the same `op.WithSetRouter` hook as the
authorize callback. `op.RegisterLegacyServer` appends a middleware after
the caller options, which chi forbids once a route has been registered;
`op.NewIssuerInterceptor` reproduces the issuer middleware it would
otherwise add. The `/oauth/v2` routing prefix is unchanged.

# Additional Changes

- **`application_type` inference for custom-scheme redirects** (last
commit, isolated). `application_type` is an OpenID Connect member; RFC
7591 does not define it, so clients that only implement RFC 7591 omit
it. Native MCP hosts doing so register custom-scheme redirect URIs,
which ZITADEL reserves for native applications, and the OIDC default of
`web` rejected them with `invalid_redirect_uri`. Inference is limited to
custom schemes and to an absent `application_type`, so every request
accepted today keeps its current application type and auth method — an
`http` loopback redirect still yields a web application. Happy to drop
this commit if you would rather keep it out of this PR.
- **Docs**: a Dynamic Client Registration integration guide, a
`registration_endpoint` section on the OpenID Connect endpoints page,
and the new role in the administrators table (plus its description in
the Console translations).

# Additional Context

- Part of #9810. This is **Phase 1 (DCR)**; #12315 adds RFC 7592 and
#12316 adds CIMD, both stacked on this branch and rebased once this
lands.
- Implements the control-plane and authorization model requested in the
review of this PR, itself a refinement of the direction in
https://github.com/zitadel/zitadel/issues/9810#issuecomment-4891176997.
- **Out of scope (deliberately)**: RFC 7592, CIMD, persisting free-form
metadata (`logo_uri`, `contacts`, and similar), and `private_key_jwt` /
`jwks_uri` (rejected cleanly). No new event types.
- Follow-ups explicitly left out, per the review: DCR client lifecycle
and richer audit, consent and custom scopes, JWT / `aud` (RFC 8707), and
RFC 8414 AS metadata (currently absent from both ZITADEL and
`zitadel/oidc`).

f4f43f5248 docs: fix broken GitHub code-reference blocks after fumadocs migration (#12213)
# Which Problems Are Solved

Pages in `apps/docs` that embed source from GitHub via the Docusaurus
convention

````
```js reference

https://github.com/zitadel/actions/blob/main/examples/org_metadata_claim.js
```
````

stopped working after the migration from Docusaurus to fumadocs. The old
`docusaurus-theme-github-codeblock` plugin used to fetch the file and
render it; fumadocs has no support for that meta, so the page rendered
the raw URL as plain code-block text. Visible at
`/docs/apis/actions/code-examples` and 16 other pages.

# How the Problems Are Solved

- Converted every ```` ```<lang> reference\n<URL>\n``` ```` block (46
total across 17 `.mdx` files) to the native fumadocs JSX form:
`<GithubCodeBlock url="<URL>" />`. The existing `<details>`/`<summary>`
collapsibles around blocks are kept — they're an authoring choice, not
part of the rendering bug.
- Updated `apps/docs/components/github-code-block.tsx` to render via
`DynamicCodeBlock` from `fumadocs-ui/components/dynamic-codeblock`
(proper shiki highlighting) instead of raw `CodeBlock` + `Pre` (which
produced unhighlighted output). Also fixed language detection so a URL
hash like `#L10-L20` no longer pollutes the language token.
- Registered `GithubCodeBlock` globally in
`apps/docs/mdx-components.tsx`, matching how every other shared
component (`APIPage`, `Callout`, `Tab/Tabs`, `Step/Steps`, `Admonition`,
`TerminologyUpdate`) is exposed. MDX files no longer need a local
`import`.

# Additional Changes

- Normalized the two MDX files that were already using the JSX form
(`examples/secure-api/python-django.mdx`,
`examples/secure-api/java-spring.mdx`): removed their now-redundant
local `import { GithubCodeBlock }` and rewrote 9 long-form
`<GithubCodeBlock url="..."></GithubCodeBlock>` tags to self-closing for
consistency.

# Additional Context

Verified locally with `pnpm --filter @zitadel/docs dev`:

- `/docs/apis/actions/code-examples` — 20 shiki-highlighted code blocks
rendered inside the `<details>` collapsibles (was 0).
- `/docs/apis/openidoauth/claims` — line-range hashes (`#L9-L11`)
honored.
- `/docs/examples/login/flutter` — mixed languages (xml/dart/html)
detected and highlighted.
- `/docs/guides/integrate/external-audit-log` — edge case of fenced
reference indented inside a numbered list also converted and rendered.

Greps:
- `^[ \t]*\`\`\`[a-zA-Z0-9]+ reference` in `apps/docs/content/**/*.mdx`
→ 0 matches.
- `<GithubCodeBlock url="` in `apps/docs/content/**/*.mdx` → 55 matches.
- `from '@/components/github-code-block'` in
`apps/docs/content/**/*.mdx` → 0 matches.

# Which Problems Are Solved

As part of the naming consistency initiative, the terms Authorization,
User grants, internal authorization and other similar terms that are
used in the context of assigning project roles to users are replaced by
Role Assignments in the UI, API docs, and documentation.

# How the Problems Are Solved

By replacing the following terms with Role Assignments in API docs,
Console UI, and guides.

- Authorization
- internal authorization
- external authorization
- User Grant
- Roles and Authorizations

By adding a note in the API docs to make it clear that Authorization
within the context of Authorization Service API refers to role
assignments, not to OAuth authorization as it is still used in the APIs.

By updating some screenshots in documentation / guides to show "Role
Assignments" instead of "Authorizations" in the UI.

## Todos for release

- [x] Configure Env in docs project on vercel
- [x] Configure Root Path in the docs project on vercel
- [ ] Remove old CSP https://github.com/zitadel/website/pull/1592

## What we did

This pull request migrates the project documentation from the old
`docs/` directory to the new `apps/docs/` directory, introduces a new
documentation system built with Next.js and Fumadocs, and updates all
relevant references, configuration files, and documentation to reflect
this change. It also adds new configuration and ignore files for the new
documentation app, updates CI and linting to exclude the new docs from
certain checks, and revises the contributing guidelines accordingly.

**Documentation System Migration and New Docs App**

* Migrated all documentation from `docs/` to `apps/docs/`, and updated
all references in `README.md`, `CONTRIBUTING.md`, and other files to

* Added a new Next.js/Fumadocs-based documentation app under
`apps/docs/`, including core app files, layouts, routing, search API,
and a comprehensive `README.md` with development and contribution
instructions.

**Configuration and Tooling Updates**

* Updated `.github/workflows/codeql.yml`, `.golangci.yaml`, and
`.github/dependabot.yml` to properly handle the new docs app: excluded
`apps/docs` from certain checks, added npm dependency updates for the
docs app, and excluded generated content.

* Updated `.devcontainer/devcontainer.json` to use the latest Go 1.25.3
version for consistency.

**Licensing and Miscellaneous**

* Added `apps/docs/` to the list of licensed directories in
`LICENSING.md`.

These changes ensure the documentation is now maintained in a modern,
scalable system and all project tooling is updated to support the new
structure.
