* feat(storage): KV HTTP contract and clients (#1000 Part A) (#1002) * feat(storage): KV + Asset HTTP contracts and clients Adds the client half of the server backends for the two components in the storage RFC that still had a browser backend only. Asset contract: the ref is `sha256-<hex>` over the bytes, computed by one shared rule both backends call, and it *is* the address bytes are written to (`PUT /assets/{ref}`). The server re-hashes what it received and refuses a mismatch, so content addressing is enforced end to end rather than assumed, and uploads become idempotent. `resolve` returns a URL per call, either an absolute signed URL passed through untouched or a root-relative proxied path joined to the base origin — the document never stores a raw URL either way. KV contract: account scope only, with no scope path segment, query parameter or body field anywhere on the wire. `HttpAccountKV` is the only object that can reach it and none of its methods takes a scope, so a device value is not a request the transport can express; `HttpKVStore` routes `device` to a local backend it requires at construction. Tests assert the invariant both ways — `@ts-expect-error` on every scope-passing call (unused directives fail the build if a scope is ever added) and a fetch spy proving device traffic does not exist. Both clients pass the existing `runKVStoreContract` and `runStorageProviderContract` suites against an in-memory conformance server, the asset one in both the proxied and signed URL shapes. * fix(storage): close the review findings on the KV + asset HTTP clients Cross-review found the device-scope guarantee resting on its weakest layer, and several places where the contract promised more than the code or the conformance server could deliver. deviceStore: the two type-level layers only documented intent — the barrier that actually kept device values off the wire was the injected store, typed as `KVStore`, which `HttpAccountKV` satisfies structurally (its methods are the same methods minus an optional parameter). Injecting the transport as the device backend type-checked and put device values on the network. The device scope now requires a branded `LocalKVStore`, the transport declares itself not to be one, and a runtime check refuses what a cast smuggles past. resolve URLs: a media `src` carries cookies, never the client's headers hook, so the proxied shape is only sound for cookie-authenticated deployments — the contract now says so instead of claiming the content route sits behind "the same authentication", and the conformance reader uses a cookie rather than a header no browser could send. The client also validates what it resolves: http(s) schemes only, and no `//host` or `/\host` slipping through the relative branch to another origin. Identifiers: refs and keys arrive percent-decoded, so `..%2F..%2F` was a traversal waiting for the first backend to join it to a path. Both are now constrained on both sides, and the contract states the MUST that keeps a storage layer from being the first to look. Also: the JSON gate runs before anything reads the value (a `JSON.stringify` pre-flight ran caller code first and reclassified `{ toJSON: () => undefined }` as a delete); scope routing fails closed; an upload's Content-Type can no longer be relabelled by the headers hook; a mutation invalidates in-flight resolution; unparseable 2xx bodies become typed errors rather than native SyntaxErrors; signed tokens are validated rather than merely present; and the contracts settle the per-principal claim model, the media-type allowlist, the literal prefix rule, and the identifier charset that Part B would otherwise have had to guess at. * fix(storage): close the second review round on the KV + asset HTTP clients The device-scope guard was in one place and needed to be in three. The transport is exported and structurally a `KVStore`, so `kvPersistStorage(new HttpAccountKV(...), 'device')` and a plain `KVStore`-typed reference both compiled without a cast, dropped the scope argument on the floor, and put a device value on the wire. The transport now takes the scope it was pretending not to have — typed as `'account'`, refused at runtime for anything else, since bivariant method parameters mean the type alone cannot hold — and the persist adapter requires a `LocalKVStore` when paired with `'device'`. The resolved-URL checks were text tests where only parsing works. The URL parser strips ASCII tab, LF and CR before parsing, so `/<tab>/evil/x` walked past the `//` prefix check and loaded cross-origin — in the app-mounted shape, where a path-only base URL leaves that check as the only guard. The absolute branch let through `https://` with no host and `https:host/x`, which names one place standalone and another when a browser resolves it against a same-scheme page. Both branches are now decided by the parser: control characters refused outright, relative references validated against a probe origin, absolute ones required to parse as `scheme://host` with an http(s) scheme — and still returned byte-for-byte, so signatures survive. The media-type MUST had no implementation and contradicted itself: the conformance server stored and served `text/html` verbatim, and a metadata-less upload became `application/octet-stream`, which cannot be on a renderable allowlist. The server now implements the allowlist, serves everything else as an opaque attachment, and the contract scopes its "usable as an img src" promise to allowlisted types. The KV key domain was HTTP-only, which made "the same suite proves the backends equivalent" untrue: `a/b`, an empty key and a 600-byte key all passed in the browser and would have become unreachable on a server. An audit of the app's keys (learner key, storage generation, current-scene and migration markers, persist names) found none in violation, so the rules are lifted to the primitive and both backends enforce them, with the shared suite asserting it. Also: the claim model the last round wrote into the contract is now implemented and covered case by case; malformed percent-escapes are a 400 rather than a 500; the in-flight identity guard has a test that can fail; and the Content-Type conflict raises a typed error. * fix(storage): final review round — backend parity, URL probe, credentials Four small things the final pass found, plus the contract patches Part B would otherwise inherit. The `toJSON` delete semantics were documented backwards. `BrowserKVStore.set` was the trial-serialize the KV contract said no backend does, so `{ toJSON: () => undefined }` was a silent delete there and a rejection over HTTP — opposite answers to the same call. The browser backend now validates scope and key before anything can run caller code, recognizes the delete case by type, and refuses a value that still fails to serialize. Both cases are in the shared suite, so the two backends cannot drift apart again. The probe-origin check could not vouch for a URL naming the probe host itself: `//asset-url-probe.invalid/x` resolves onto the probe origin and passed, then resolves somewhere else entirely against a real base. Any authority-bearing form is refused outright, so the check no longer depends on the probe host being unguessable. Cross-origin cookie deployments had no way to send a cookie: `fetch` omits them cross-origin by default and the headers hook cannot help, since `Cookie` is a forbidden header name. Both clients accept `credentials` and pass it to `fetch`; the contract records the CORS obligations that come with it. Rather than restricting cookie deployments to same-origin, which the asset contract explicitly does not require. The conformance server's dot-segment check was reading a path the URL parser had already normalized, so `/assets/%2e%2e/x` arrived as `/x` and the documented 400 was really post-routing behaviour. It now validates the raw request target, and the injected transport preserves it instead of handing over a normalized one. Contract: the prefix rule names backslash (PostgreSQL's default LIKE escape, and the one an implementer skips because a legal key cannot contain it, though a prefix can), and acquiring a claim MUST leave the bytes present — a de-duplicating server that inserts only the claim can race reclamation of the last previous claim and leave a document resolving to a 404. Also: base URLs are checked for an http(s) scheme at construction, the ref domain moved next to the KV key domain and is enforced by both asset backends with shared suite coverage, the KV client refuses a hook-supplied Content-Type like the asset one, and CI runs the package typecheck that makes the `@ts-expect-error` guards mean something. * fix(storage): probe guard spelling, prefix validator, base url shape Three one-line-level holes from the closing review. The probe-host guard was spelled `startsWith('//')`, so the backslash forms `/\host/x` and `/\/host/x` reached the origin comparison, passed it by naming the probe host, and were stopped only by that host failing to resolve. It now refuses any second character that can open an authority — which is also what makes the comment true rather than aspirational: a path-absolute reference always inherits the base's origin, so with no authority expressible the comparison cannot be satisfied cross-origin, whatever the probe host is. The conformance server validated `?prefix` with the path-segment validator, rejecting `keys('.')` and `keys('..')` — legitimate prefixes of keys like `.hidden`, which the client rightly allows. A prefix travels in the query string and is never a path segment, so it now has its own validator: the key rules minus the non-empty and dot-segment requirements. The contract says the same, and the shared suite pins both backends to it. Base URL validation moved into one shared helper both clients call, since two copies of a security rule is how they drift. It now also refuses `https:host/path` — which parses standalone to that host but is resolved against the current document by `fetch`, sending requests and their credentials somewhere the operator never wrote — and a base carrying a query or fragment, which silently swallows the path concatenated onto it. * fix(storage): close two holes in the shared base-url check The path-only branch returned its input unexamined, so `//evil.example` and `/\evil.example` were accepted as paths. A browser reads both as an authority, which means every request built on such a base — and every credential the headers hook attaches — leaves the origin. A base is now required to be a single `/` followed by something that is not `/` or `\`, the same refusal the resolved-URL check already makes, for the same reason. Control characters are refused first: the parser strips or re-encodes them, and `/<tab>/evil.example` becomes `//evil.example` after it does. The query/fragment check read the parsed `search` and `hash`, which are empty strings for a base ending in a bare `?` or `#` — so exactly the inputs that swallow the concatenated path into a query or fragment were the ones that got through. It reads the raw string now, which also makes the post-parse check redundant rather than merely unreachable. * fix(storage): bypass HTTP caches on reads, and require a 404 for not-found Two mechanisms the clients were missing, on both sides. Reads are marked `cache: 'no-store'`. The asset resolve request answers two mutable questions — does this principal hold a claim, and which URL is valid now — so a cached answer returns an expired signed URL or replays a negatively cached 404 for an asset written since; the in-flight coalescing that would otherwise cover this lives in the client and cannot reach the HTTP cache layer. KV reads have the same problem for a different reason: `account` is by definition the scope another device may have just written, and nothing here can invalidate a cached copy when it does. The contracts now require `no-store` on those responses. Asset content is left cacheable — bytes at a content-addressed ref never change — and writes are unmarked, having nothing to read from a cache. The not-found mappings now require the status as well as the code. A proxy or gateway answering 401, 403 or 500 while echoing the body's error code was being read as "this does not exist", and `null` is indistinguishable from a real miss — so an outage reached the caller as data loss. * fix(storage): reject unusable base urls, and make the harness meet the contract Two configuration checks and two harness gaps. A base URL carrying userinfo built a client that threw a native TypeError on every operation, because Fetch refuses to construct a request from a URL with embedded credentials — one legible error where the deployment is configured beats a per-call failure with no explanation. A base with surrounding whitespace was worse than useless: `new URL` strips it, so validation passed, and then concatenation moved the space inside the URL where it is no longer trailing and no longer stripped, breaking every request. The conformance server now sends `Cache-Control: no-store` on the three reads the contracts require it on. The requirement landed last round with nothing asserting it, so the suite would have passed against exactly the implementation it exists to catch. And `DELETE /kv/entries/{key}` refuses a request body outright: the query and the header were already checked for a smuggled scope, leaving the body as the one channel through which a delete could still describe one. * fix(storage): allow a device-routing composite to persist device-scoped state cosarah found kvPersistStorage(httpKVStore, "device") wrongly rejected. An HttpKVStore is a full dual-scope composite: it routes device operations to the LocalKVStore it requires at construction and only reaches the network for account, so device values never leave the machine. The guard tested isLocalKVStore — "is the whole store local" — and so turned away a store that is safe for device precisely because it is not fully local. The guard now turns on the capability that actually matters: does the device scope stay local. A new DeviceSafeKVStore brand (servesDeviceScopeLocally: true) marks a store whose device writes never leave the device — held by a fully-local LocalKVStore (which extends it) and by HttpKVStore, and declared false by HttpAccountKV, the pure account transport with no local device backend. The persist device overload requires DeviceSafeKVStore; the account overload is unchanged. The security boundary the red team opened this whole line on is untouched: HttpAccountKV used for device is still doubly refused — its false brand is not assignable to the true DeviceSafeKVStore requires (type), and the runtime check rejects the cast that would erase it. The brand is structurally unforgeable, not a flag the transport could set; and the injected device backend of a composite still demands the stronger, fully-local LocalKVStore, so composites cannot nest into a router loop with no local floor. Regression test (cosarah's ask): kvPersistStorage(httpKVStore, "device") set/get/remove reach the injected device backend, land device-scoped there, and make zero HTTP requests. Mutation-checked: widening the brand so HttpAccountKV is accepted, or neutering the guard, turns the device-out reject test red. * refactor(storage): scope #1002 down to KV — remove the asset HTTP backend Per the maintainer decision, the AssetProvider server design moves to the global-resource-pool RFC (#1007), where AssetRef changes from content-addressed to an allocated global id and the contract model itself changes. Continuing to harden the content-addressed asset client here would be work on code that is being replaced, so the asset half of #1002 is withdrawn and the PR is pure KV. Removed (all introduced by #1002): - docs/asset-http-contract.md - src/asset/http.ts (HttpAssetProvider) and its index / package.json exports - src/asset/content-ref.ts (assertAssetRef / computeAssetRef / the ref shape) - test/http-asset-provider.test.ts and the asset half of the conformance server Reverted to the #858 baseline, untouched: - src/asset/browser.ts — back to opaque resolve/remove, no assertAssetRef guard. This directly removes cosarah's latest asset finding: an opaque ref such as `bucket/path` no longer throws, restoring the DSL AssetRef-opaque contract. - test/asset-contract.ts, test/asset-browser.test.ts — 0-diff from origin/main. Kept (all KV): kv-http-contract.md, src/kv/* (HttpKVStore / HttpAccountKV / the DeviceSafeKVStore brand), the KV tests, and the KV conformance server — renamed kv-conformance-server.ts and reduced to KV routing over the shared harness framework (body caps, no-store, scope-channel and dot-segment guards, auth hooks). base-url.ts stays; KV still uses it. * fix(storage): treat KV keys as opaque; document account-sync prerequisites cosarah found the key validation we added for traversal defense breaks legitimate callers: DSL identifiers (stageId/sceneId/learnerKey) are unconstrained strings — verified, the DSL only requires typeof === 'string' — and app callers compose keys like `editor-current-scene:<stageId>`, so a valid stage id `stage/one` now throws in BrowserKVStore before localStorage. Fix, matching the asset-opaque precedent: a KV key is an opaque string again. The `/` and `\` rejection is removed from assertKVKey / assertKVKeyPrefix and from the conformance server. Traversal is defended by encoding, not rejection — the HTTP client already percent-encodes the whole key into one path segment, so a separator never opens a new segment on the wire, and the server stores the decoded key as a plain map key (bound value), never a path. `a%2F..%2F..%2Fb` decodes to the single opaque key `a/../../b`, which addresses one entry and traverses nothing; a raw unencoded `..` path produces extra segments that match no route (404). The rules that remain are only what encoding cannot cover and the transport cannot carry (empty, whole-key `.`/`..`, NUL, lone surrogate, length) — none producible by `prefix + id`. Tests: the shared suite now round-trips keys with `/`, `\`, `%`, `:`, spaces across both backends; a `stage/one` key round-trips through the real conformance server; the traversal input is proven to store as one opaque key and the raw path to 404. Mutation-checked: re-adding the `/` rejection reddens exactly the round-trip cases. Docs (kv-http-contract.md): - "A key is an opaque string" replaces the identifier-shape section — keys may contain separators; traversal is an encoding + server-bound-value duty. - Account settings sync now documents its security prerequisite next to the account scope: a deployment MUST provide real per-user isolation of stored rows and encryption at rest before enabling sync; the reference server is not that posture. - kvPersistStorage(device) doc corrected from LocalKVStore to DeviceSafeKVStore (the device-safe brand accepts the HttpKVStore composite; HttpAccountKV stays double-rejected). * fix(storage): close the scope/key/prefix contract gaps with a coverage matrix Three completeness gaps, nailed by an executable matrix so an untested channel/shape can't slip through the next pass rather than patched one by one. 1. Scope via a GET body was not rejected. `assertNoScopeChannel` covered the query and header, but the bodyless GET routes never read their body, so `GET /kv/keys` with `{"scope":"device"}` returned 200 []. Bodyless methods (GET, DELETE) now reject any request body up front — that is the channel a scope would hide in — and only `set` reads a body, checking it for a scope field. The DELETE route's own body check folds into the shared one. 2. The 512-byte key bound wrongly rejected legitimate keys. A DSL id is an unconstrained string (verified: the DSL requires only typeof === 'string'), and `editor-current-scene:` + a 500-char stage id is 521 bytes, which BrowserKVStore rejected before localStorage. Keys are length-unconstrained; the bound is raised to a generous 8 KiB DoS ceiling and documented as a resource guard, not part of the key domain — not a derived/hashed key, which would break the literal-prefix semantics of keys(prefix). Both backends and the conformance server move in lockstep. 3. The prefix contract text contradicted itself: it claimed a legal key can never contain a backslash, while the key section (correctly) makes keys opaque, backslash included. Reworded — a prefix is opaque like a key — and the shared literal-prefix matrix now covers `\` (PostgreSQL's LIKE escape), which it had skipped, alongside `%`, `_`, and combinations. Coverage matrix (CI-executable): - scope-rejection: {get,set,remove,keys} × {query,header,body}. query/header run in-process; the body cells use a raw HTTP client (fetch cannot put a body on a GET — exactly the non-conforming client the finding described) against a loopback listener, skipped where the sandbox forbids binding. - key-validity: `/ \ % _ : .` space, BMP + astral Unicode, `%2F`, a 500-char composed key, and all-at-once — each round-trips (set/get, keys(prefix) match, remove) on both browser and HTTP backends via the shared suite. - prefix-charset: `%`, `_`, `\`, and combinations match literally, both backends. - Boundaries still rejected: whole-key `.`/`..`, NUL, lone surrogate, empty, and the DoS ceiling. Mutation-checked: removing the bodyless-body rejection reddens the three GET/ DELETE body cells; lowering the ceiling back to 512 reddens the long-key round-trip on both backends. Bumps @openmaic/storage to 0.1.2 (src/kv/* changed). * fix(storage): bound the KV key DoS ceiling by encoded size, not UTF-8 bytes Follow-up to the 8 KiB ceiling: measuring it in UTF-8 bytes ignored percent-encoding expansion and reopened a backend-parity break. A non-ASCII key is small in bytes but large on the wire — `€` is 3 UTF-8 bytes and `%E2%82%AC`, 9, encoded — so `'€'.repeat(2730)` (8190 bytes, under the old cap) encoded to ~24.6 KB, which the Node HTTP server rejects with 431 before routing while `BrowserKVStore`, which never builds a URL, accepted it. The ceiling is now measured on `encodeURIComponent(key).length` — the size the key occupies as a request target — at 4096, far above any real id (a 500-char id under `editor-current-scene:` encodes to ~523) and well below Node's default 16 KiB `maxHeaderSize` (empirically the 431 trigger on Node 22), so no key that passes validation can reach a 431. Both backends and the conformance server use the same encoded-size limit, so a key is accepted iff its encoded form fits, whichever backend it reaches — parity restored. `MAX_KV_KEY_BYTES` becomes `MAX_KV_KEY_ENCODED_LENGTH`. Tests, against a real node:http server for the 431 boundary: - the max-legal non-ASCII key (455×€, encoded 4095) round-trips over real HTTP with no 431, and the browser accepts the same key — parity on accept; - one code point over (456×€, encoded 4104) is rejected by both backends at validation, before any request — the exact parity case a byte bound missed (1368 bytes, would have passed, then 431'd over HTTP); - a raw client bypassing client validation with an over-ceiling (under 16 KiB) encoded key gets a clean 400, not a 431. Shared suite's key-domain matrix now bounds by encoded size on both backends. Mutation-checked: reverting the ceiling to UTF-8 bytes reddens the three encoded-length parity tests. Bumps @openmaic/storage to 0.1.3 (src/kv/* changed). * fix(storage): make the KV key domain truly opaque; keep transport limits out The recurring key-limit findings (512 → 8 KiB → 4096, each patch exposing the next) shared one root cause: transport-driven rules kept being added to the key domain — the browser primitive included — breaking the "opaque unconstrained string key" contract. This is the structural fix, per cosarah: "keep HTTP transport limits out of the browser primitive and preserve the existing string key domain." Approach (a), the minimal one: a KV key is any string, validated nowhere. The browser primitive is a Map/Storage that stores any key; the HTTP backend carries the key as a URL path segment and inherits that transport's limits, documented as HTTP-deployment concerns that never constrain the key domain. Every real key (a `prefix:id` from an unconstrained DSL string) round-trips on both backends; only pathological keys hit a transport limit, and none of those are keys a caller produces. (b) — keys in the request body for accept-parity — was unnecessary: verified that no real key needs it. Removed from the key domain (browser + HTTP + conformance server): - the encoded-size / length ceiling entirely — there is no key-length limit; - the NUL exclusion — NUL percent-encodes to %00, is preserved end to end, and is a legitimate Map/Storage key (a false "cannot represent" premise); - the `.`/`..`/empty/`/`/`\` rejections — all opaque, all round-trip. `assertKVKey` / `assertKVKeyPrefix` / `MAX_KV_KEY_*` are gone. Kept, at the transport layer only (HttpAccountKV), never reaching the primitive: - an unpaired UTF-16 surrogate genuinely has no percent-encoding, so the HTTP client surfaces a clear transport error (KEY_NOT_ENCODABLE) while the browser stores the same key — verified: encodeURIComponent throws on it. Scope completeness (P2): the "reject scope in every channel" guarantee had two holes — a scope path segment (`/kv/device/keys`) 404'd instead of 400, and only `x-scope` was checked among header spellings. The server now rejects a scope path segment and the whole prohibited header set (scope, x-scope, kv-scope, x-kv-scope). The coverage matrix is {get,set,remove,keys} × {path, query, each header spelling, body}. Coverage matrix reworked to verify arbitrary opaque keys (empty, NUL, control chars, separators, long, Unicode) round-trip on both backends — not to verify a limit. A real node:http test proves NUL and long keys round-trip end to end, and that a lone surrogate is a transport limit (browser accepts, HTTP client errors). Mutation-checked: re-adding a NUL rejection, removing the path-segment check, or dropping a header spelling each reddens the matching cells. Cleanup: package.json description updated (KV HTTP delivered, not "later"); network-server bind/skip/close lifecycle deduped into one helper. Bumps @openmaic/storage to 0.1.4 (src/kv/* changed). * fix(storage): reject whole-key "."/".." in the HTTP client — they alias entries Follow-up to making the key domain opaque: removing the `.`/`..` key-domain rejection was right (the browser stores them fine), but the HTTP client then let them reach `fetch`, where URL path normalization silently rewrites the target before it is sent. `encodeURIComponent('.')` is `.`, so `/kv/entries/.` collapses to `/kv/entries/` (the empty key) and `/kv/entries/..` walks up a level — so `get`/`set`/`remove` on a whole-key `.` or `..` silently read, overwrite, or delete a *different* entry, with no error. A data-correctness bug. Fix, same pattern as the unpaired-surrogate limit already handled: a whole-key `.`/`..` is something the URL-path transport structurally cannot carry, so the client's path-segment encoder refuses it with `KEY_NOT_ENCODABLE` before a request is built. Split the encoder in two: `encodeKeyPathSegment` (key → path segment, rejects whole-key `.`/`..`) and `encodeComponent` (the `keys()` prefix → query value, where `.`/`..` are legitimate and untouched). A key that merely *contains* a dot (`a.b`, `prefix:id`) is unaffected and round-trips. The browser primitive still stores `.`/`..` opaquely. The HTTP transport's limits are now complete — three cases, all fail-loud at the transport layer, all storable on the browser: (1) an unpaired surrogate (no percent-encoding), (2) a whole-key `.`/`..` (URL normalization aliases it), and (3) an over-long key (deployment request-target ceiling). The contract lists all three as HTTP-deployment limits, not key-domain constraints. Tests: whole-key `.`/`..` — browser stores and round-trips (distinct from the empty key); HTTP client throws `KEY_NOT_ENCODABLE` and builds no request; and a real-server test asserts the empty-key entry is never read, overwritten, or deleted by a `.`/`..` operation. A dot-containing key (`a.b`) round-trips. Mutation-checked: dropping the whole-key check reddens the alias tests. Bumps @openmaic/storage to 0.1.5 (src/kv/* changed). * fix(storage): reconcile the settings/profile persist consumer with the KV API The integration merge (#1002 KV into main) surfaced two things the merge itself could not resolve mechanically: - `lib/store/kv-persist.ts` (added on main by #1001) called `kvPersistStorage(kv, scope)` with a *variable* scope, which #1002's overloads deliberately reject — `'device'` must be paired with a device-safe store, so the overloads take the scope as a literal. Branch on the scope: `'account'` takes any `KVStore`; `'device'` narrows the backend to `DeviceSafeKVStore` via its brand (the adapter re-checks at runtime) and otherwise fails loud. The app wires only `'account'` today; the `'device'` arm keeps the generic helper honest. `ControllableKV` in the persist test wraps a local `BrowserKVStore`, so it is genuinely device-safe and now declares the brand. - `packages/@openmaic/storage` version bumped 0.1.5 → 0.1.6: the merge changed storage inputs (README + a pg-schema test carried from main) relative to the previous integration tip, so the version-bump guard requires an increase above #1002's 0.1.5. Still ahead of main's 0.1.1. Verified: root `tsc --noEmit` clean, the persist test green (40 passed), and the storage package suite green on Node 22.

3. Run
pnpm dev
Open http://localhost:3000 and start learning!
4. Build for Production
pnpm build && pnpm start
Optional: ACCESS_CODE (Shared Deployments)
To protect your deployment with a site-level password, set ACCESS_CODE in .env.local:
ACCESS_CODE=your-secret-code
When set, visitors see a password prompt before accessing the app. All API routes are also protected. If not set, the app works as before.
Vercel Deployment
Or manually:
- Fork this repository
- Import into Vercel
- Set environment variables (at minimum one LLM API key)
- Deploy
Docker Deployment
cp .env.example .env.local
# Edit .env.local with your API keys, then:
docker compose up --build
Server-backed persistence (PostgreSQL)
The server-persistence profile runs exactly two containers: the OpenMAIC app
and PostgreSQL. The persistence HTTP server is embedded in the app at
/api/persistence; there is no standalone persistence service.
cp .env.example .env.local
printf '\nDATABASE_URL=postgres://openmaic:openmaic-dev@postgres:5432/openmaic\nPERSISTENCE_DEV_TOKEN=openmaic-local-dev\n' >> .env.local
NEXT_PUBLIC_PERSISTENCE=1 NEXT_PUBLIC_PERSISTENCE_TOKEN=openmaic-local-dev docker compose --profile server-persistence up --build
Add your provider API keys to .env.local as usual. Runtime sessions and course
documents become server-backed; device-scoped KV data (including the anonymous
device learner key and playback position) remains in the browser. Existing
browser course data is copied into the configured server store lazily, one
course at a time when it is first accessed, using the same verified migration
path as browser persistence.
NEXT_PUBLIC_PERSISTENCE is a build-time switch compiled into the browser
bundle. A build with it enabled must be deployed with a working runtime
DATABASE_URL and PERSISTENCE_DEV_TOKEN, while
NEXT_PUBLIC_PERSISTENCE_TOKEN must match that server token at build time.
Otherwise the browser selects HTTP persistence but the embedded endpoint
returns configuration/authentication/initialization errors; the home page shows
a persistence-unavailable toast and keeps the prior course list instead of
misleadingly displaying an empty library.
PERSISTENCE_DEV_TOKEN and NEXT_PUBLIC_PERSISTENCE_TOKEN are not a
secret in any meaningful sense: the NEXT_PUBLIC_ token is compiled into
the public JavaScript bundle, fully visible to every visitor, and therefore
provides no confidentiality and no user isolation whatsoever — anyone who
can load the page can extract it and read or write every learner partition
and all documents by choosing an x-learner-key. Its only purpose is to
keep unrelated network scanners out of an endpoint on a trusted network. This
is suitable only for localhost or trusted-network, single-user deployments. Before production,
replace
lib/persistence/server-auth.ts with real
session verification that derives the learner partition from server-controlled
identity, and change the document/merge/admin authorization policies as
appropriate.
PERSISTENCE_POSTGRES_PASSWORD initializes the PostgreSQL role only when the
data directory is empty; changing it later does not rotate an existing
openmaic-postgres volume. For a disposable local database, run
docker compose --profile server-persistence down -v, set the new password and
matching DATABASE_URL, then start the profile again. To preserve data, connect
as an administrator and run ALTER ROLE openmaic WITH PASSWORD 'new-password';,
then update DATABASE_URL.
Compose cannot attach depends_on to openmaic only when this optional profile
is active without also affecting the default deployment. Startup therefore
relies on the embedded route's retry-on-next-request behavior while PostgreSQL
becomes healthy.
The embedded endpoint implements the package's
RuntimeStore HTTP contract
and
DocumentStore HTTP contract.
Leave NEXT_PUBLIC_PERSISTENCE unset to retain the existing browser-only
behavior.
Optional: MP4 Video Export (Render Service)
The "Export Video" menu builds a self-contained Hyperframes project entirely in the browser. Turning that into an MP4 needs Chromium + FFmpeg on Node 22, so it runs in an isolated render-service container rather than the app.
It's opt-in. Start it with the video-export compose profile:
docker compose --profile video-export up --build
The app auto-detects the service via RENDER_SERVICE_URL (preset in docker-compose.yml) and enables one-click MP4 rendering. Without the profile — or when RENDER_SERVICE_URL is unset — export degrades to downloading the project ZIP for local CLI rendering. See render-service/README.md for standalone setup and tuning (RENDER_MAX_CONCURRENCY, etc.).
Optional: MinerU (Advanced Document Parsing)
MinerU provides enhanced parsing for complex tables, formulas, and OCR. You can use the MinerU official API or self-host your own instance.
Set PDF_MINERU_BASE_URL (and PDF_MINERU_API_KEY if needed) in .env.local.
Optional: VoxCPM2 (Self-Hosted TTS with Voice Cloning)
VoxCPM2 is an open-source TTS model from OpenBMB with voice cloning. OpenMAIC ships an adapter; run VoxCPM on your own hardware and OpenMAIC will talk to it.
1. Run a VoxCPM backend. Three deployment styles, all behind the same OpenMAIC adapter. You toggle which one in Settings.
| Backend | Endpoint | When to use |
|---|---|---|
| vLLM-Omni | /v1/audio/speech |
OpenAI-compatible speech endpoint, ideal for GPU servers |
| Python API | /tts/upload |
Official VoxCPM Python runtime via FastAPI |
| Nano-vLLM | /generate |
Lightweight Nano-vLLM FastAPI deployment |
See the VoxCPM repo for backend setup.
2. Point OpenMAIC at it. Open Settings → Text-to-Speech → VoxCPM2, pick the backend, and paste your Base URL. The Request URL preview confirms OpenMAIC will hit the right endpoint.
Or pre-configure it via env var (no API key required):
TTS_VOXCPM_BASE_URL=http://localhost:8000/v1
3. Manage voices. Three voice modes, all under Settings → Text-to-Speech → VoxCPM2 → VoxCPM Voices.
- Auto Voice (default): OpenMAIC generates a voice prompt from each agent's persona at synthesis time. No setup required.
- Prompt voice: describe the voice in natural language, e.g. "warm female teacher voice, calm and encouraging, mid-pitch".
- Clone voice: upload a short reference audio clip or record one in the browser. The clip is stored in IndexedDB and sent to your VoxCPM backend on each synthesis.
✨ Features
Deep Interactive Mode (New!)
Passive listening? ❌ Hands-on exploration! ✅
As Einstein said: "Play is the highest form of research."
While Standard Mode focuses on quickly generating classroom content, Deep Interactive Mode goes further — creating interactive, explorable, hands-on learning experiences. Students don't just watch knowledge; they adjust experiments, observe simulations, and actively explore how things work.

Lesson Generation
Describe what you want to learn or attach reference materials. OpenMAIC's two-stage pipeline handles the rest:
| Stage | What Happens |
|---|---|
| Outline | AI analyzes your input and generates a structured lesson outline |
| Scenes | Each outline item becomes a rich scene — slides, quizzes, interactive modules, or PBL activities |
Classroom Components
|
🎓 Slides AI teachers deliver lectures with voice narration, spotlight effects, and laser pointer animations — just like a real classroom. 
|
🧪 Quiz Interactive quizzes (single / multiple choice, short answer) with real-time AI grading and feedback. 
|
|
🔬 Interactive Simulation HTML-based interactive experiments for visual, hands-on learning — physics simulators, flowcharts, and more. 
|
🏗️ Project-Based Learning (PBL) Choose a role and collaborate with AI agents on structured projects with milestones and deliverables. 
|
Multi-Agent Interaction
|
|
OpenClaw Integration
|
OpenMAIC integrates with OpenClaw — a personal AI assistant that connects to messaging platforms you already use (Feishu, Slack, Discord, Telegram, WhatsApp, etc.). With this integration, you can generate and view interactive classrooms directly from your chat app without ever touching a terminal. |
|
Just tell your OpenClaw assistant what you want to learn — it handles everything else:
- Hosted mode — Grab an access code from open.maic.chat, save it in your config, and generate classrooms instantly — no local setup required
- Self-hosted mode — Clone, install dependencies, configure API keys, and start the server — the skill guides you through each step
- Track progress — Poll the async generation job and send you the link when ready
Every step asks for your confirmation first. No black-box automation.

Available on ClawHub — Install with one command: Or copy manually: |
Configuration & details
| Phase | What the skill does |
|---|---|
| Clone | Detect an existing checkout or ask before cloning/installing |
| Startup | Choose between pnpm dev, pnpm build && pnpm start, or Docker |
| Provider Keys | Recommend a provider path; you edit .env.local yourself |
| Generation | Submit an async generation job and poll until it completes |
Optional config in ~/.openclaw/openclaw.json:
{
"skills": {
"entries": {
"openmaic": {
"config": {
// Hosted mode: paste your access code from open.maic.chat
"accessCode": "sk-xxx",
// Self-hosted mode: local repo path and URL
"repoDir": "/path/to/OpenMAIC",
"url": "http://localhost:3000"
}
}
}
}
}
Export
| Format | Description |
|---|---|
| PowerPoint (.pptx) | Fully editable slides with images, charts, and LaTeX formulas |
| Interactive HTML | Self-contained web pages with interactive simulations |
| Classroom ZIP | Full classroom export (course structure + media) for backup or sharing |
Offline / intranet classrooms: When you export a classroom (.maic.zip) or a Resource Pack, OpenMAIC inlines the external assets referenced by interactive scenes (KaTeX, Three.js incl. three/addons, Tailwind CDN, Google Fonts, images) into the exported HTML as data: URIs. The exported course then plays fully offline after import into an air-gapped/intranet instance — no public CDN is contacted at playback time. Assets that can't be fetched at export time (e.g. CORS-restricted image hosts) are reported and left as URLs. Classrooms exported before this feature still reference CDNs and must be re-exported to gain offline support.
And More
- Text-to-Speech — Multiple voice providers with customizable voices
- Speech Recognition — Talk to your AI teacher using your microphone
- Web Search — Agents search the web for up-to-date information during class
- i18n — Interface supports 7 languages: Chinese (Simplified & Traditional), English, Japanese, Russian, Arabic, and Portuguese (Brazil)
- Dark Mode — Easy on the eyes for late-night study sessions
