oauth-authorization (TECH-825): send a code for a login_hint and skip consent for approved clients - #15
Two gaps vs ePDS. A handle or DID login_hint on a browser that doesn't remember the account showed a blank email form instead of sending the code. And an email login_hint for an account remembered in this browser still sent a code instead of signing in.
Fix
A handle/DID login_hint with no matching remembered session now sends a code straight to that account's email (masked). Unknown hints, accounts without a valid email, prompt=none|create|select_account and remembered accounts keep today's pages.
An email login_hint matching one active account remembered in this browser within seven days signs in without a code. With no prompt, an already-approved client skips consent when the provider's checkConsentRequired agrees; new scopes, prompt=consent, untrusted public clients and any lookup error show consent.
Masked emails now use the ePDS format (karma.secret@zoepa.com → ***a.***t@***a.***m).
Flow pages allow a strictly validated client redirect source in form-action, so the post-code redirect isn't blocked by the CSP.
Summary by CodeRabbit
New Features
Sign-in can use email, handle, or DID hints to identify an account. Email hints do not restrict account choice when multiple accounts match.
Some returning users can sign in without a code when the browser has a fresh remembered session. Consent requirements vary by client and approval status; code-based sign-in still requires consent.
Signup may skip consent for eligible trusted clients.
Changes
Automatic sign-in codes are limited to two per account every ten minutes. After the limit, users can enter their email to request a code.
Email addresses shown during sign-in are more thoroughly masked.
Consent is rechecked before authorization completes; users are asked to consent again if approval is no longer valid.
Confidence Score: 5/5
No new blocking issue was found; the PR appears safe to merge with the acknowledged shared-code issue deferred.
Summary
Adds automatic masked codes for handle/DID hints and code-free sign-in for one fresh remembered account matching an email hint.
Handle and DID hints can send a code straight to the matching account.
A fresh email hint can sign in through its remembered account.
Eligible trusted clients can finish signup without a consent page.
OAuth flow pages allow safe client redirects after form submission.
Account pages reuse shared links and code fields.

The pull request adds OAuth sign-in paths for handle, DID, and email hints. It adds separate automatic-code limits and prior-consent checks that are revalidated during authorization completion. It also updates account-form helpers, browser form-action policy, tests, and documentation.

Layer / File(s)
Summary
Hint matching and code limits src/accounts/rules.ts, src/features/account-registration/signup-routes.mjs, src/features/email-login/*, src/features/account-registration/signup-routes.test.mjs
Shared flow-hint matching is used by signup and login. Automatic codes use a two-per-account limit, separate from the five-per-email limit. Email masking now masks dotted segments on both sides of @.
Authorization hint routing src/compose-authentication.mjs, src/features/oauth-authorization/authorization-routes.mjs, src/features/oauth-authorization/authorization-routes.test.mjs
Handle and DID hints can start account-bound code flows when the account and prompt meet the stated conditions. Email hints can use a matching remembered session for sign-in or consent; other cases continue to code sign-in. Lookup failures are logged and treated as misses.
Consent skip and grant revalidation src/features/oauth-authorization/consent.mjs, src/features/oauth-authorization/complete-authorization.mjs, src/features/oauth-authorization/consent-skip.test.mjs
Consent skipping uses signup opt-in or eligible prior grants. Authorization completion rechecks the current grant in its transaction and shows consent when a prior approval is no longer valid.
Shared account forms and browser policy src/ui/account-forms.mjs, src/features/account-deletion/*, src/features/account-recovery/page.mjs, src/features/account-settings/*, src/features/pds-migration/actions.mjs, src/http/*
Account flows use shared code-field and settings-link helpers. Browser-flow pages derive form-action policy from validated redirect URIs.
Browser and route coverage exercises hinted sign-in, code limits, and consent behavior across client configurations. Documentation and changesets describe the updated flows. Provisioning tests use shared assertions for account-creation calls and unpublished state.

Derive the masked domain instead of hard-coding it.
The expected note hard-codes ***e.***t for the domain example.test. maskEmail masks each dot segment, so this is correct today. If the helper's email domain changes, the test fails with a confusing message.
Also, localPart.slice(-1) matches maskDottedSegments only because the local part has no dot. The createAccount helper generates a hyphenated label, so this holds.

Update the maskedNote expectation to derive the masked domain from the test
email using the existing maskEmail or maskDottedSegments behavior instead of
hard-coding ***e.***t. Preserve the current local-part expectation, which is
valid for the hyphenated label generated by createAccount.
Assert the negative case in the code-page form-action test.
The test name says the client origin is allowed "only for an authorization flow". The test builds the standalone fixture and requests /auth/resend for it. It then checks only that without.body contains the verify form. It never checks that the standalone response omits the client origin from form-action.
A regression that adds the client origin to every flow page would still pass this test. Add a negative assertion.

- Around line 257-267: Rewrite the automatic-code budget paragraph in the
architecture documentation to state clearly that a browser without a signed-in
session for the account cannot trigger a send without typing the email that
consumes the shared email budget. Split the long sentence near the start of the
paragraph into shorter sentences while preserving the existing distinctions
between the account-based and email-based budgets.
- Around line 334-337: Update the email-hint sign-on description to state that
the client must be confidential or trusted, matching the condition in
priorGrantApproves; retain the existing requested-scope and prompt=consent
requirements, and do not imply that confidential clients must also be trusted.

Each dot-separated part of the local part and domain becomes *** plus its
last character, so karma.secret@zoepa.com shows as ***a.***t@***a.***m.
Invalid input still shows "your account email".
Refs: TECH-825
Signup kept its own copy of the login_hint rule, which compared DIDs
case-sensitively and diverged from login and consent. Signup now uses
the same rule from accounts/rules.ts.
The one-time-code field and 'Return to account settings' link were built
by hand in several places and had drifted (some links were unescaped or
lacked the /account fallback).
Scope the returning-user consent skip to no-code sign-on, separate fresh-session silent sign-on from the interactive fallback, list consent-map browser cases, and note the trusted-or-confidential condition in the changeset.
Composition now passes the raw account lookup; the feature decides which accounts get an automatic code, so feature tests cover the inactive and invalid-email cases. Addresses review P3 on compose-authentication.
A handle/DID login_hint auto-send spent the shared per-email OTP budget, so anyone knowing a public handle could lock the owner out. Automatic sends and their resends now use a two-per-account budget; once spent, the email form appears with a masked note, and only typing the email spends the shared budget. Addresses review P2.
Specs merged from main asserted the previous k••••@Domain mask and a handle
hint that showed the email form; this branch masks like ePDS and sends the
hinted account its automatic code.
