Follow-up to #106480. Sites that ask for a code after the password stopped
the agent cold: the login classifier excludes one-time-code fields on
purpose (a password must never land in an OTP box) and there was no tool
for the second step, so the only move was to ask in chat.
browser_vault_enter_code
Fills the one-time code the current page asks for. Two sources, same
invariant as passwords (the code goes to the page over the supervisor
socket and never enters model context):
- a TOTP seed on the login: local vault `otp_secret` (RFC 6238, stdlib,
verified against the RFC test vectors), 1Password `op item get --otp`,
Bitwarden `bw get totp`. Nobody is asked.
- no seed: the surface prompts "Verification code for {site}"; the user
types what their phone/email/app shows. Enter on empty / Skip declines
and the tool returns code_declined ("do not ask again this turn").
no_code_field tells the model the site wants a passkey / hardware key /
app approval: hand it to the user's device and wait for navigation.
Per-digit OTP boxes (maxlength=1 pattern) get one digit each in DOM order.
Surfaces
CLI: sudo-style panel, code shown as typed (not a secret worth masking,
typos must be visible), Enter submits, ESC/empty skips.
Desktop: "Verification code for {site}" card via vault.code.request /
vault.code.respond (gateway), owner-routed like the other vault prompts.
Settings → Passwords & Logins: optional "Authenticator key" field on the
add form (base32 or otpauth:// link); items with one show a "2FA auto"
badge. `hermes vault add` asks for the same optional key.
browser_vault_fill's result now says what to do next ("if the site asks
for a verification code, call browser_vault_enter_code with this handle").
Six locales.
Verified live (real model, local 2FA site that checks the TOTP; CLI PTY):
A. login saved with authenticator key → signed in through 2FA, zero
prompts, code/password absent from the transcript
B. login without key → code panel → user types code → signed in
C. panel dismissed → agent stops and explains, never asks in chat
Unit: RFC 6238 vectors, seed normalisation, mint-without-asking, per-digit
spread, decline, no-code-field; Desktop card test (owner routing, trim, Skip).
Manager tokens: lock generation fence (a Lock acknowledged while `bw unlock`
/ `op signin` is still running discards the late token); tokens record the
unlocking gateway session and are released when THAT session ends, not when
any sibling session in the profile is torn down.
1Password: OP_CONNECT_HOST/TOKEN come from the profile's scoped secret store
like the service token (Connect outranks a service token inside op), never
from the launch environment.
Vault RPCs bind params.profile (home + secret scope) so a shared remote
backend serving several profiles locks/lists/unlocks the requested one;
unknown profile → RPC error, not a crash.
Fill target: inspection stamps are `<nonce>:<index>`; a fill resolves only
its own inspection's stamps, so an interleaved second inspection can no
longer redirect A's password into a newly mounted field (real Chrome: 0
filled, both fields empty).
Desktop Settings: every RPC goes through the owner profile's socket
(requestGatewayForProfile), query keys carry (connection, profile), an owner
change closes dialogs and wipes drafts (a master password typed for A is
never submitted to B; a late list from A never paints under B), and vault.add
secrets travel in a ref consumed by the mutationFn instead of mutation
variables. Three owner-routing invariant tests on the real component.
Docs/PR body: session-scoped release, lock-race semantics, bw --passwordenv.
Bitwarden unlock now uses the CLI's documented non-interactive channel:
`bw unlock --raw --nointeraction --passwordenv VAR`, VAR set on the child
environment only (bw 2026.x rejects a piped password with "Master password
is required"). Verified against the real published binary.
Manager session tokens are keyed by (profile home, backend): a Desktop
gateway hosting several profiles can no longer reuse or lock another
profile's session. Status probes (`vault.sources`, is_unlocked) no longer
refresh the idle TTL; only real manager calls do. Gateway session teardown
locks the profile's managers (a per-session unlock ends with the session).
1Password service-account token comes from the profile-scoped secret store
(get_secret), not ambient os.environ.
`vault.source.set` no longer references a module constant (bind_module
rebinding dropped it → NameError on every Settings toggle).
Fill target binding: inspection stamps each input with a per-inspection
slot attribute; the fill resolves by stamp and requires type=password, then
strips every stamp. A DOM reflow between inspect and fill can no longer
redirect the password into a text field (reproduced in real Chrome before,
0 filled after).
Redaction boundary: no 4-char floor, CR/LF-normalized form registered
(what a text input actually stores), JSON object KEYS scrubbed in both
browser redactors; longest value first. Docs now state the real trust
model: accidental-disclosure protection, not an execution sandbox.
Desktop: the mid-turn card sends the master password through the owning
session's socket (requestForOwnedSession), never the ambient foreground
gateway; `vault.unlock.expire` clears a stale card; Settings keeps the
master password out of react-query mutation variables (ref consumed by the
mutationFn). One renderer invariant test for the routing.
The browser vault now draws from three login sources behind one handle
shape: the local encrypted vault (vault_…), 1Password Login items (op:…)
and Bitwarden Password Manager logins (bw:…). browser_vault_list aggregates
metadata across them; browser_vault_fill routes by prefix and resolves the
password at fill time only, through the manager CLI.
External managers are locked until the user unlocks them for the current
session. The new browser_vault_unlock tool (and the fill path, implicitly)
asks the surface to show a masked master-password prompt — CLI panel
(reuses the sudo panel state), TUI/Desktop via a vault.unlock.request
blocking card. The password goes to `op signin --raw` / `bw unlock --raw`
on stdin, never argv or env; only the session token is kept, in memory,
with a 30-minute idle TTL, cleared on session close or `vault.lock`.
Headless contexts (cron, webhook, api_server, -q) can never prompt: the
manager is reported as locked with unlock=unavailable_in_this_session and
fill refuses — the same posture approvals take where nobody can answer.
Config: vault.onepassword / vault.bitwarden {enabled, binary_path, …};
a 1Password service-account token skips the prompt for headless use.
RPC: vault.sources, vault.source.set, vault.unlock, vault.lock for Settings.
Tests (2, real subprocess against a fake bw; each proven red by sabotage):
headless never prompts or spawns; unlock feeds stdin only, token never
enters os.environ, fill routes by prefix and the password only reaches the
fill script.
