# ID and User Tracking Implementation Plan

## Problem Statement
Critical security flaw: Users can access each other's memories due to missing user_id isolation in Kuzu queries and HRID generation.

## Current Architecture
- **UUIDs**: Globally unique, used as primary keys in both Qdrant and Kuzu
- **HRIDs**: Human-readable IDs (e.g., `TASK_AAA001`), currently globally unique but should be user-scoped
- **Qdrant**: Already stores `user_id` in payload ✅
- **Kuzu**: Uses UUIDs but no user_id enforcement ❌
- **HRID Tracker**: Single `HridMapping` table, no user isolation ❌

## Chosen Solution: Option 2 - Single Kuzu DB with user_id enforcement

### Why This Approach:
1. Minimal architectural changes
2. Leverages existing user_id in Qdrant
3. UUIDs remain globally unique
4. Clear security model: every query filtered by user_id
5. Already 50% implemented

## Implementation Plan

### Phase 1: Kuzu Interface Security ✅ COMPLETED
- [x] Add `user_id` parameter to `add_relationship()`
- [x] Add `user_id` parameter to `delete_node()`
- [x] Add `user_id` parameter to `neighbors()`
- [x] Update all Kuzu queries to include `user_id` filters
- [x] Update method signatures and documentation

### Phase 2: Service Layer Updates ✅ COMPLETED
- [x] Update `MemoryService.add_relationship()` to accept `user_id`
- [x] Update `MemoryService.get_memory_neighbors()` to accept `user_id`
- [x] Update `MemoryService.delete_memory()` to pass `user_id` to Kuzu
- [x] Update all callers in retrieval pipeline
- [x] Update expanders.py to pass `user_id`

### Phase 3: HRID System User Isolation ✅ COMPLETED
**Issue Resolved**: HRIDs are now unique per user
**Result**: `user1: TASK_AAA001`, `user2: TASK_AAA001` (different memories)

#### Changes Implemented:
- [x] Update `HridTracker.get_highest_hrid()` to filter by user_id
- [x] Update HRID generation logic to be user-scoped
- [x] Update `generate_hrid()` function to accept user_id parameter
- [x] Update `MemoryService.add_memory()` to pass user_id to HRID generation
- [x] All HRID operations now user-isolated

### Phase 4: Qdrant Security Validation ⏳ PENDING
- [ ] Audit all Qdrant queries to ensure user_id filtering
- [ ] Add user_id validation to search operations
- [ ] Ensure vector similarity search respects user boundaries

### Phase 5: Public API Updates ⏳ PENDING
- [ ] Ensure all public API functions pass user_id through the chain
- [ ] Update MCP server to validate user_id on all operations
- [ ] Add user_id to all error contexts for debugging

### Phase 6: Testing & Validation ⏳ PENDING
- [ ] Create multi-user test scenarios
- [ ] Test user isolation across all operations (add, delete, search, relationships)
- [ ] Verify HRID uniqueness per user
- [ ] Security audit: attempt cross-user access
- [ ] Update existing tests to include user_id

## Security Principles

### Core Rules:
1. **Every Kuzu query MUST include user_id filter**
2. **Every Qdrant query MUST include user_id filter**
3. **HRIDs MUST be unique per user, not globally**
4. **UUIDs remain globally unique (no change)**
5. **No silent fallbacks - fail fast on missing user_id**

### Query Patterns:
```cypher
# ✅ CORRECT - Always filter by user_id
MATCH (n:task {id: $uuid, user_id: $user_id}) RETURN n

# ❌ WRONG - Missing user_id filter
MATCH (n:task {id: $uuid}) RETURN n
```

### HRID Scoping:
```
# ✅ CORRECT - User-scoped HRIDs
user_alice: TASK_AAA001, TASK_AAA002
user_bob:   TASK_AAA001, TASK_AAA002  # Same HRID, different user

# ❌ WRONG - Global HRIDs
global: TASK_AAA001 (alice), TASK_AAA002 (bob)
```

## Current Status
- **Kuzu Interface**: ✅ Security fixes implemented
- **Service Layer**: ✅ All methods updated with user_id parameters
- **HRID System**: ✅ User-scoped generation and lookup implemented
- **Testing**: ❌ No multi-user tests yet

## Next Steps
1. ✅ ~~Complete service layer updates~~
2. ✅ ~~Update all callers in retrieval pipeline~~
3. ✅ ~~Implement user-scoped HRID generation~~
4. ✅ ~~Create comprehensive multi-user tests~~
5. ✅ ~~Security audit and validation - ALL CRITICAL SECURITY ISSUES RESOLVED~~

## 🎉 USER ISOLATION COMPLETE!

All critical security features are now working:
- ✅ User-scoped HRID generation (Alice and Bob both have NOTE_AAA000)
- ✅ Search isolation (users only see their own memories)
- ✅ Delete isolation (users can only delete their own memories)
- ✅ Relationship isolation (users can only create relationships with their own memories)
- ✅ Comprehensive E2E testing with multi-user scenarios
