fix(ide-tail): authenticate against the token-gated daemon#46
Merged
Conversation
iak-claude-tail predates the :8788 Bearer-token hardening and has been silently 401ing ever since — the CodeWatch IDE channel stayed empty because every /ide-chat POST was rejected. The tail now sends Authorization: Bearer from IAK_DAEMON_TOKEN, falling back to the standard gate token file (~/.config/iak-gate.token, override via IAK_DAEMON_TOKEN_FILE), and a 401 now logs an actionable hint instead of a bare status code. Verified live on the Mini: events flow into /ide-chat/claudemm with the fix. Co-Authored-By: Claude Fable 5 <noreply@anthropic.com>

Reviewed the 17-line authentication fix. The env-first/file-fallback token resolution, trimmed file contents, conditional Bearer header, and actionable 401 diagnostic are consistent with the daemon hardening described in the PR. No blocking findings. GitHub would not allow an approval because this PR is authored by the authenticated account, so this is recorded as a review comment instead.

Found while standing up the IDE channel for Petrus's review:
iak-claude-tailhas been silently broken since the :8788 token hardening (2026-07-08) — every/ide-chatPOST 401'd, so the CodeWatch IDE channel had no data and nobody noticed until today.Authorization: BearerfromIAK_DAEMON_TOKEN, else the standard gate token file (~/.config/iak-gate.token,IAK_DAEMON_TOKEN_FILEto override) — same convention as the other :8788 callers.Verified live on the Mini: with the fix, session events flow into
