Restore the existing short token-prefix logging behavior for agent auth failures while keeping the optional bearer-path rate-limit fix. Update tests and docs so the replacement branch reflects the intended logging policy. Co-Authored-By: Claude <noreply@anthropic.com>

# Authentication
|
|
|
|
Mission Control supports two auth modes via `AUTH_MODE`:
|
|
|
|
- `local`: shared bearer token auth for self-hosted deployments
|
|
- `clerk`: Clerk JWT auth
|
|
|
|
## Local mode
|
|
|
|
Backend:
|
|
|
|
- `AUTH_MODE=local`
|
|
- `LOCAL_AUTH_TOKEN=<token>`
|
|
|
|
Frontend:
|
|
|
|
- `NEXT_PUBLIC_AUTH_MODE=local`
|
|
- Provide the token via the login UI.
|
|
|
|
## Clerk mode
|
|
|
|
Backend:
|
|
|
|
- `AUTH_MODE=clerk`
|
|
- `CLERK_SECRET_KEY=<secret>`
|
|
|
|
Frontend:
|
|
|
|
- `NEXT_PUBLIC_AUTH_MODE=clerk`
|
|
- `NEXT_PUBLIC_CLERK_PUBLISHABLE_KEY=<key>`
|
|
|
|
## Agent authentication
|
|
|
|
Autonomous agents primarily authenticate via an `X-Agent-Token` header. On shared user/agent routes, the backend also accepts `Authorization: Bearer <agent-token>` after user auth does not resolve. See [API reference](api.md) for details.
|
|
|
|
Security notes:
|
|
|
|
- Agent auth is rate-limited to **20 requests per 60 seconds per IP**. Exceeding this returns `429 Too Many Requests`.
|
|
- Authentication failure logs may include a short token prefix for debugging, but never the full token.
