# NuQloud Managed Recovery + Emergency Access

This document describes the managed recovery and emergency-access flow added to `qortal_integration`.

## Goal

- Keep decentralized auth primary.
- Provide optional recovery support for users who opt in.
- Ensure admins cannot read recovery data at rest.
- Require both admin and user participation for recovery reveal.

## User-facing behavior

In **Personal Settings** (`/settings/user/connected-accounts`, section `NuQloud for Nextcloud`):

- User can opt in to **Managed Recovery**.
- User can optionally opt in to **Emergency Temporary Login Reset**.
- User chooses:
  - linked wallet/account
  - current backup password (verified against wallet backup API)
  - recovery passphrase (local secret known only to user)
- User can later reveal backup password only with:
  - recovery passphrase, and
  - admin-issued one-time recovery code.

Admin flow is available in **Administration settings -> NuQloud for Nextcloud -> Recovery Operations**:

- Check target user recovery status.
- Issue one-time recovery code (configurable TTL).
- Start emergency temporary-login window (configurable duration).

## Security model

- The backup password is encrypted server-side into an escrow blob:
  - cipher: `aes-256-gcm`
  - key derivation: `pbkdf2-sha256` with per-record salt and iterations
- Admin recovery codes are:
  - short-lived,
  - one-time use,
  - stored hashed with HMAC in app config registry.
- Recovery reveal has lockout controls:
  - failed attempt counter,
  - temporary lock window after repeated failures.
- Emergency reset is explicit opt-in and time-bounded.

## What this is and is not

- This is an app-level encrypted escrow model, not raw plaintext storage.
- This is not zero-knowledge from the server runtime perspective during active recovery execution.
- This does not currently hard-disable centralized login globally; it adds emergency controls around it.
- Passwords app mirroring is not yet implemented in this pass.

## Endpoints

All routes are under `/apps/qortal_integration`.

### User endpoints

- `GET /api/user/recovery/status`
  - auth: authenticated user
  - returns current recovery/enrollment/emergency state for the current user.

- `POST /api/user/recovery/enroll`
  - auth: authenticated user
  - params:
    - `walletId`
    - `currentBackupPassword`
    - `recoveryPassphrase`
    - `recoveryPassphraseConfirm`
    - `managedEnabled` (`1`)
    - `emergencyLoginEnabled` (`1` or empty)
  - behavior:
    - verifies wallet backup password first,
    - encrypts escrow blob,
    - persists managed recovery settings.

- `POST /api/user/recovery/disable`
  - auth: authenticated user
  - clears managed recovery configuration for current user.

- `POST /api/user/recovery/reveal`
  - auth: authenticated user
  - params:
    - `recoveryPassphrase`
    - `adminCode`
  - behavior:
    - validates and consumes one-time admin code,
    - decrypts escrow if passphrase is valid,
    - returns backup password once.

- `POST /api/user/recovery/emergency/complete`
  - auth: authenticated user
  - marks emergency flow as completed after user replaces backup password.

### Admin endpoints

- `POST /api/admin/recovery/code`
  - auth: ops admin (`admin` or delegated MSP admin)
  - params:
    - `targetUserId`
    - `expiresMinutes` (default 15, bounded)
  - behavior:
    - issues one-time recovery code for target user,
    - returns code and expiration.

- `POST /api/admin/recovery/emergency`
  - auth: ops admin
  - params:
    - `targetUserId`
    - `durationHours` (default 24, bounded)
  - behavior:
    - requires user opted into managed + emergency modes,
    - sets temporary Nextcloud password for target user,
    - sets emergency-required and emergency-expiry flags.

## Stored app/user config keys

User-scope keys (`IConfig::setUserValue`, app `qortal_integration`):

- `user_recovery_managed_enabled`
- `user_recovery_emergency_login_enabled`
- `user_recovery_wallet_id`
- `user_recovery_escrow_blob`
- `user_recovery_escrow_updated_at`
- `user_recovery_failed_attempts`
- `user_recovery_locked_until`
- `user_recovery_emergency_until`
- `user_recovery_emergency_required`
- `user_recovery_emergency_started_by`
- `user_recovery_emergency_started_at`

App-scope key:

- `recovery_admin_code_registry`

## Verify on devcloud

Use your normal compose file + env file pattern:

```bash
docker compose -f docker-compose.devprod.nossl.yml --env-file .env.devprod exec --user www-data nextcloud php -l /var/www/html/custom_apps/qortal_integration/lib/Controller/ApiController.php
docker compose -f docker-compose.devprod.nossl.yml --env-file .env.devprod exec --user www-data nextcloud php -l /var/www/html/custom_apps/qortal_integration/lib/Settings/PersonalSettings.php
docker compose -f docker-compose.devprod.nossl.yml --env-file .env.devprod exec --user www-data nextcloud php -l /var/www/html/custom_apps/qortal_integration/templates/personal.php
```

Functional smoke:

1. User enables managed recovery in personal settings.
2. Admin issues recovery code for that user.
3. User reveals backup password with admin code + recovery passphrase.
4. Admin triggers emergency reset (if user opted in).
5. User logs in, rotates backup password, clicks emergency complete.

## Known follow-up work

- Optionally integrate with Nextcloud Passwords app if a stable API contract is confirmed for target NC versions.
- Add hard enforcement of emergency completion in login/post-login policy flow if required.
