The signup form runs signUp, signIn, then createOrganization. The server
resolves the signed-in profile and credential from the authenticated socket;
client-supplied user, key, bootstrap, and repository metadata do not determine
the new tenant's identity or provisioning credentials.
server.organizations.create(data) coordinates these workflows in order:
- Register a platform organization with a server-generated ID.
- Run
create-organization-databasein platform context. The workflow creates provider storage, persists itsbootstrapStorageon that platform record, and returns the same object. The handler verifies that persistence. - Install the platform-defined
create-organizationworkflow into the tenant database, then execute it in tenant context to write the organization, authenticated user profile, credential, and generated keys. - Generate one organization cluster ID and run
create-organization-clusterin platform context, then install the trusted definition and run it in tenant context with the same cluster. Both organization records receive itscluster_id. - Run
create-organization-repositoryin platform context. It creates a private repository from the template'smain, commits the initial upload config, and createsdevandtestfrom that same commit. Repository references are retained on the platform and tenant organization records. - Await
server.manager.createServer(cluster)with the completed cluster and registered repositories. Manager uses cluster.initialDeployment and persists server inventory and provider identity in both scopes. - Mark signup ready and return a safe organization summary plus
https://<tenant-host>/auth/. Bootstrap and deployment credentials, and the internal Manager response, are never returned to the client.
The client emits createdOrganization after that success. Its existing disabled signup button keeps the spinner visible through timeout(60000); Actions then follows the returned href after the chain finishes. Creation failure aborts the chain without redirecting. The fixed delay does not verify startup or upload completion; those continue on the tenant node.
The workflow source records live in CoCreate App's
src/apps/workflows/config/{data,organization,cluster,repository}.js. Stable record IDs
allow repeatable uploads without duplicate definitions. Workflow names are
configurable through organizations.databaseWorkflow, organizationWorkflow,
clusterWorkflow, and repositoryWorkflow. All four enabled platform definitions are checked
before a new organization record is created.
The bootstrap object requires non-empty name and provider strings; remaining
fields pass through unchanged. The current Atlas database recipe additionally
requires cloudProvider, regionName, and cidrBlock in
organizations.databaseProvisioning, with configured provider credentials and
endpoints. That workflow remains disabled until its provider setup is complete.
The repository recipe uses organizations.repositoryProvisioning for api,
templateOwner, and templateRepository. The configured managed GitHub API
must have an owner, credentials, and the template/file/branch/deploy-key endpoints.
Repository names remain the stable organization ID. The platform workflow's
initialConfig AST is the authoritative initial file definition: it includes
upload directory rules, the tenant organization ID, an empty API-key placeholder,
and main/dev/test host mappings. Subsequent uploads resolve the API key
outside Git. The config is generated once during signup, not on node restart.
The sequence is not transactional. Failure retains the platform organization
with provisioning.status: "failed" and database/tenant/repository stage status.
A partial GitHub failure can leave a repository or branch for investigation;
automated recovery, rollback, and cleanup are not implemented. A duplicate
repository creation is an error rather than permission to overwrite it.
Hostname availability is checked before creation; concurrent signups still
require database-enforced uniqueness.
This path prepares the repository through APIs; it does not clone a local
checkout or run coc upload. Initial application publication remains a separate
next stage. Cluster UI creation only selects existing storage and creates
cluster/server resources; it does not repeat signup. Cluster master checkout and application publishing
remain separate from signup's database and repository creation.
Initialize after the server is ready:
const Organizations = await import("@cocreate/organizations");
await Organizations.init(server);The old server.organizations.provision Git/mirror creation path is removed.
Signup is the primary managed organization/database/repository creation route.
The real-workflow signup integration tests are in CoCreate App's
test/bootstrap-workflow.test.js; they replace the obsolete native Git
provisioning test fixtures.
After provisioning the tenant database and initial organization/user/key data, the server generates a repository-specific RSA SSH key pair. It stores a disabled pending credential in the tenant's apis before calling create-organization-repository; only the public key and API-record ID enter that workflow. The workflow creates/configures the repository, reads GitHub SSH host verification keys over HTTPS, and registers a write-enabled deploy key through create-repository-deploy-key. Repository metadata includes its SSH clone URL, HTTPS clone URL, credential API ID, and deploy-key ID.
The server then activates the tenant API record with the returned references and host keys before reporting signup ready. No private key is copied into the platform organization, workflow payload, GitHub request, repository config or signup response. Failed registration/persistence leaves signup failed and its credential pending; retries/cleanup are not automatic. GitHub integration credentials require repository Administration write permission to register deploy keys. Deploy keys have no built-in expiration; explicit rotation is deferred. GitHub may still revoke/delete keys, including when the PAT used to create a deploy key is deleted.
Node masters retrieve this credential from their own organization's API record at startup and before shutdown push. Rotation and initial application upload remain separate work.
The cluster has its own server-generated _id, with name equal to the generated organization ID, type: 'organization', and the tenant's primary hostname. The platform record is created first; its definition is then copied into the tenant database using the same _id. Scope metadata remains local to each database. organizations.clusterProvisioning supplies trusted deployment defaults; client cluster IDs, names, types, and hosts cannot override the generated identity. The default scaleIn.minClusterSize is explicitly 0, and overrides must be nonnegative integers. initialDeployment is required and copied to both cluster records: signup currently uses cloud API 65f8ca227b39a3c1a8904e02, region us-east-1, and VM type t3a.small from trusted configuration. These are static defaults for the future deployment selection UI; client signup input cannot override them today.
The default record creates the identity and minimum-scale policy. Cloud, storage, routing, binary and sizing settings must be supplied through trusted clusterProvisioning or configured before deployment; signup does not guess those credentials and now requires the configured deployment path to succeed. The create-organization-cluster workflow also writes cluster_id onto the corresponding organization in each scope. A failed platform or tenant cluster write cannot complete signup. This step does not create or modify tenant runtime startup scripts. The separate platform deployment processor uses cluster.manager.for as the node organization ID without changing the platform CRUD execution scope.
After the repository workflow returns its GitHub details and the deploy key is activated, signup appends its repository definition to the already-created cluster in platform and tenant scope. Both receive the same URL, credential reference, main branch, relative localFsRoot ../, directory, lifecycle timeouts and initialUpload { enabled:true, completed:false }. Existing trusted repository entries from clusterProvisioning are retained. Either failed cluster write prevents signup readiness.
The URL identifies the array entry. No repository entry ID or server-config repository record is generated. Organization git metadata is retained for reference, but Cluster startup reads cluster.repositories instead of deriving runtime configuration from that metadata. Cluster primary now runs initial publication after checkout and service readiness, with a cluster/URL reservation. Signup and cloning alone do not mark initialUpload completed; only successful upload does.
After both organization-cluster copies exist, signup calls src/server/cluster-management.js. It reads the platform App's keyless permission reference (6b0700000000000000000021), generates a Utils UUID, and creates an active platform keys record with cluster/tenant ownership metadata, neither admin nor default access. No tenant transport API or endpoint is created.
The first-VM handler resolves that key and stores it in manager.apiKey on both server copies, alongside the parent organization ID and hostname. Cluster reads this object into the primary runtime during its existing startup lookup. AutoScaler uses server.manager.send to POST to the parent's /manager path, rather than using a configured transport API. The key stays out of Git, signup responses, VM workflow inputs and cloud startup scripts.
The permission reference limits create-instance/delete-instance endpoints through Authorize's $endpoint operator. Cluster/provider AST predicates remain separate. A failed management-key write prevents signup readiness. Existing clusters and additional cluster UI creation are not automatically backfilled.
Managed cluster metadata is stored as manager: { organization_id, host, for }: the first two values identify the platform, and for is the tenant organization ID. Signup assigns these from trusted runtime context and stores the same relationship in both cluster copies. name starts as the generated organization ID but is a display label and can be renamed. initialDeployment and repositories are top-level cluster configuration. Repository setup populates both arrays before awaiting Manager.createServer. Mesh retains its later activation and return-from-zero creation path.
