dan-claude-bot ec5e898094 revoke/grant: survive the live-session case — the review's one real hole (#74)
Supplementary groups are read at LOGIN, so 'gpasswd -d' does nothing to a
session the user already holds — and after --purge, a stale-group process
could touch incus-user and lazily RECREATE the project with stock defaults:
the unhardened NAT bridge, un-narrowed, strictly worse than the granted
state. Adversarial review caught it; verified live, then closed:

- revoke --purge terminates the user's sessions first (loginctl, then
  pkill), and refuses to purge under processes it cannot kill
- bare revoke says out loud that held sessions keep the socket until they
  end, and names the loginctl command — instead of claiming a lockout it
  did not deliver (help/README/design doc reworded to match)
- a failed grant backs out its own group-add on exit (trap, disarmed on
  success): no half-granted user holding an un-narrowed socket while the
  admin reads the error. Verified by injecting a bad profile YAML
- the rehearsal now holds a session open across the purge and demands it
  dies with the tier (criterion l, 42nd check)

Smaller review findings, same pass: the escape-hatch probes assert the
refusal's REASON instead of any nonzero exit (an image hiccup must not read
as 'the escape is closed'); probe_from maps an outer-timeout kill to
dropped, not reachable; the rehearsal cleanup keeps the account when a purge
fails so doctor can name the leftovers; the purge asserts the trust
certificate's absence; cmd_new distinguishes a dead daemon from a missing
stack before prescribing setup-host; grant's success message names the
user-<uid> bridge variant correctly on big-uid hosts.

Rehearsal after: 42/42 (containers). test/cli.sh: 76 checks.

# box revoke <user> [--purge] — take the restricted tier back (#74).
#
# Two strengths, deliberately:
# · bare revoke removes the user from the 'incus' group. That closes the
# socket — the only path their certificate can travel — so access ends at
# their next login, while their project and boxes stay intact (and their
# boxes stay RUNNING: revoking a person does not kill their workloads).
# 'box grant' restores everything untouched.
# · --purge also deletes what the tier created: their boxes, their images,
# their project, the private bridge, the trust-store certificate, the
# incus-user state. Irreversible, so it asks first.
