NIP-OA relay admission now evaluates signed created_at< and created_at> conditions against the already verified authentication event timestamp. An owner-signed credential such as created_at<1 no longer upgrades its holder to relay membership.

The verified timestamp now flows from NIP-42, NIP-98, and Blossom authentication through the shared membership gate used by WebSocket, HTTP, Git, media, huddles, GIF, and workflow requests. Owner-attested access fails closed when no signed authentication timestamp is available. Direct relay members keep their existing admission behavior, and kind= remains connection-level metadata as specified by NIP-AA.

Tests cover strict time-bound evaluation, missing timestamp rejection, and HTTP authentication timestamp propagation.

Testing:

  • cargo test -p buzz-sdk nip_oa::tests -- --nocapture
  • cargo test -p buzz-relay api::relay_members::tests -- --nocapture
  • cargo test -p buzz-relay api::bridge::tests -- --nocapture
  • just ci

🔐 Codex Security Review

Status: review required for the current range.

The current range is a3730784fc851bb1125b40cca9b0a30788a293c1...2e6edd6a559f6cf7f7cc8f3c62ec642ad4986328.
A new review must complete for this exact range. When manual authorization
is required, a Block organization member must comment exactly
@buzz-security-review 2e6edd6a559f6cf7f7cc8f3c62ec642ad4986328 to authorize a new review.
Any previous review applies only to its recorded range.

🤖 Reviewed at head 2e6edd6 alongside an independent second source review and live E2E verification — all three came back clean.

Both source reviews traced the verified timestamp from NIP-42, NIP-98, Git, and Blossom auth through every enforce_relay_membership() / extract_nip_oa_owner() consumer, and confirmed strict bound semantics, canonical hex enforcement, duplicate x-auth-tag rejection, and the X-Pubkey fail-closed path. Live testing ran this head as a closed relay (BUZZ_REQUIRE_RELAY_MEMBERSHIP=true, BUZZ_ALLOW_NIP_OA_AUTH=true) with 15/15 targeted scenarios passing over real NIP-42 WebSocket and NIP-98 HTTP, including equality-boundary denials, expired credentials, dual auth tags, duplicate headers, and the direct-member regression path.

No findings.

fix(relay): record the NIP-OA owner for direct members on closed relays
2a02440 
On a closed relay an agent that is itself a relay member never gets its
NIP-OA owner recorded, however many valid attestations it presents.
`enforce_relay_membership` returns `Ok(None)` as soon as direct membership
is established, and the only owner-extraction fallback at either call site
was gated on `!require_relay_membership` — off precisely where it is needed.

With `agent_owner_pubkey` left NULL the relay cannot tell the agent from a
human: `owner_only` policies have nothing to match, observer frames are
refused, and the connection is rate-classed as human. Closes block#4223, block#4937.

`relay_members::resolve_nip_oa_owner` settles the question once for both
call sites. Admission by delegation keeps the owner it already proved is a
member; an open relay keeps today's behaviour; a direct member on a closed
relay has its attestation resolved, with the owner required to be a relay
member.

That membership requirement is load-bearing. `materialize_nip_oa_owner` is
first-write-wins and the recorded owner selects the agent rate class, so
without it any member could attest itself with a throwaway key, raise its
own rate budget, and bind the mapping permanently against the real owner.

`allow_nip_oa_auth` deliberately does not gate this: per its own doc
comment the flag governs whether NIP-OA may *grant membership* on a closed
relay, and nothing here grants access — the caller is already in.

Time bounds now come from block#7004 (`verify_auth_tag_for_auth_event` and the
`signed_created_at` carried on `VerifiedBridgeAuth`), so this branch builds
on those primitives rather than duplicating them.

Nine tests exercise both production paths against real PostgreSQL and
Redis: `submit_event_authed` and the full `POST /events` router, plus
`handle_auth` on the WebSocket side. They live in `postgres_tests` modules
so the structural PostgreSQL discovery lane picks them up, which is why
this branch no longer patches `ci.yml`.
