Follow-up to CodeRabbit's open thread on #1723, which asked for a cache policy on GET /keyboard-shortcuts. That was deferred as a behavior change needing its own reviewed diff; this is that diff.

Routes changed

Each now declares cacheControl: "private, no-store" in its admit() policy, so the lifecycle stamps Cache-Control: private, no-store on the response:

  • GET /keyboard-shortcuts (routes/keyboard-shortcuts.ts): the caller's own shortcut bindings.
  • GET /model-preferences (routes/model-preferences.ts): the enabled-model preference. Workspace-scoped rather than per-user, but a mutable settings read that the web client and the Slack bot fetch on demand; same treatment as GET /audit-events, which already declares the policy for workspace data.
  • GET /skill-profiles (routes/skills.ts): the caller's own skill profiles. A separate PROFILES_READ_OWN admit constant carries the policy so the writes sharing PROFILES_MANAGE_OWN are untouched.

Considered and excluded

  • GET /me/authorization and the model-provider-account reads: already declare private, no-store.
  • GET /skills, GET /skills/:id: the installation's managed skill catalog, shared workspace data.
  • Session, repository, automation, and analytics reads: shared workspace data, out of scope for a preference policy.
  • No /me/... preference routes exist beyond the authorization read.

Tests

keyboard-shortcuts.test.ts (new), model-preferences.test.ts (new), skills.test.ts (new): each dispatches through its production module with the mocked-authenticate and owner-database recipe and asserts the header on the read; the keyboard-shortcuts suite also asserts the write declares none.

Snapshot

hono-route-catalog-conformance.test.ts.snap changes on exactly three rows (cacheControl for the routes above). The admission matrix snapshots are unchanged.

Verification

Summary by CodeRabbit

  • Bug Fixes
    • Prevented caching of keyboard shortcut, model preference, and skill profile responses to help keep personal settings and data private.
    • Updated the model preferences API to consistently handle reading and saving preferences while preserving session-based access and response handling.

The three GETs that answer a caller's own settings now declare
`Cache-Control: private, no-store`: keyboard shortcuts, the enabled-model
preference, and the caller's skill profiles. Each carries a request-level
test through its module, and the conformance snapshot records the policy
for exactly those rows.

Review Change Stack

📝 Walkthrough

Walkthrough

The control plane disables caching for three user-specific GET routes. The web model-preferences route now uses the shared settings proxy. Tests verify response caching, request forwarding, status codes, and session-cookie handling.

Changes

Private route response caching

Layer / File(s) Summary
Control-plane route cache control
packages/control-plane/src/routes/keyboard-shortcuts.ts, packages/control-plane/src/routes/model-preferences.ts, packages/control-plane/src/routes/skills.ts
The keyboard shortcut, model preference, and skill profile GET routes set Cache-Control: private, no-store. Skill profile reads use a dedicated admission configuration with the existing authorization requirements.
Model preferences web proxy
packages/web/src/app/api/model-preferences/route.ts, packages/web/src/app/api/model-preferences/route.test.ts
The GET and PUT handlers use settingsProxy. Tests verify control-plane forwarding, private caching, status codes, and browser session-cookie forwarding.

Estimated code review effort: 2 (Simple) | ~10 minutes

Merge Risk: 🔵 Low · up to a7456

Preference reads now prevent browser caching, and model-preference updates use the shared proxy. Credential forwarding for those updates lacks an observable boundary assertion, so a proxy regression could cause authenticated updates to fail unnoticed.

The control-plane declarations themselves are clean and no production file crosses the 1k-line threshold, but the model-preferences policy is lost at the browser boundary. The canonical proxy already solves that problem while deleting a bespoke handler, so this should be fixed before merge. The added route-local tests also duplicate existing contract/lifecycle coverage and, despite their size, miss the actual end-to-end gap.

[deep review] This policy does not reach the browser-facing /api/model-preferences response. packages/web/src/app/api/model-preferences/route.ts parses the control-plane response and constructs a fresh NextResponse without forwarding Cache-Control, so the primary web caller still has no explicit private/no-store policy. The neighboring keyboard-shortcuts and skill-profile routes already expose the code-judo move here: replace the bespoke 42-line web handler with settingsProxy(() => "/model-preferences", "model preferences"). That makes the cache behavior consistent and deletes duplicated auth, body parsing, response translation, and error handling. Please cover the web route boundary as part of that change; the new control-plane-only test passes while this regression remains.

Confirmed and fixed in a74563a: /api/model-preferences is now settingsProxy(() => "/model-preferences", "model preferences"), and route.test.ts at that boundary asserts the private, no-store header on the read and the forwarded update.

[deep review] These three new route suites add roughly 180 lines of repeated authentication/store/env scaffolding to assert a three-line policy change, but they do not add a distinct contract boundary: the catalog snapshot records each exact declaration, the admission-matrix integration test exercises each declared policy on production routes, and request-lifecycle.test.ts verifies that the policy is stamped onto responses. The incidental payload/store assertions cover unchanged behavior, and this testing shape still missed the model-preferences BFF dropping the header. Please keep the policy coverage in those canonical tests and spend the targeted request-level coverage at the web boundary where behavior can actually be lost. The PUT assertion below should also go: absence of Cache-Control is not a behavioral invariant and would make a future no-store hardening fail for no reason.

Agreed. The three route-local suites are removed in a74563a; the conformance snapshot and the lifecycle test carry the policy coverage, and the new test sits at the web boundary where the header was actually lost. The PUT no-header assertion went with them.

Review follow-ups. The bespoke web handler for `/api/model-preferences`
rebuilt the response without the control plane's headers, so the policy
declared upstream never reached the browser. The route now uses
`settingsProxy`, like keyboard shortcuts and skill profiles, and a test
at that boundary pins the private, no-store response for the read and
the forwarded update.

The three route-local control-plane suites are gone: the conformance
snapshot records each declaration and the lifecycle test proves the
header is stamped, so they duplicated coverage while missing the web
boundary that actually dropped it.
