E2E test on dev VM revealed: spec said "configurable via /admin/server-config"
for the cost guardrail cap, but the underlying read path was
`api.query.bq_max_scan_bytes` and `api` is NOT in `_EDITABLE_SECTIONS`. POST
to /admin/server-config rejected `{"sections":{"api":...}}` as "unknown
section(s): api" — the cap was only adjustable via direct YAML edit.
Move to `data_source.bigquery.bq_max_scan_bytes`:
- `_default_remote_query_cap_bytes()` reads from the new path.
- Add to `_OPTIONAL_FIELDS["data_source"]["bigquery"]["fields"]` with the
same shape as `max_bytes_per_materialize` (kind=int, default 5 GiB, hint).
- Add to `_BQ_OPTIONAL_FIELD_DEFAULTS` so it surfaces in the GET payload
even when YAML omits it.
Convention now mirrors `max_bytes_per_materialize` — both BQ cost
guardrails live under `data_source.bigquery`, both editable in the UI.
Phase 3 review identified an RBAC + cost-cap bypass: `SELECT * FROM
"bq"."ds"."tbl"` (catalog token quoted as a DuckDB identifier) was NOT
matched by the BQ_PATH regex, so direct quoted-form references skipped
both the registry check and the cost-cap dry-run. DuckDB resolves
`"bq"` to the same ATTACHed BQ catalog, so the bypass is real.
Widen the catalog-token alternation: `(?:"bq"|bq)` matches both forms.
Negative lookbehind `(?<![\w.])` still rejects look-alike prefixes
(`other_bq`, `my_bq`); the new "my_bq".ds.tbl negative test locks that
in alongside `other_bq.ds.tbl`.
Tests:
- 2 new positive cases in tests/test_query_bq_regex.py for the quoted
form (`"bq"."finance"."ue"` and uppercase `"BQ"."ds"."tbl"`).
- 1 new negative case rejecting `"my_bq".ds.tbl` so the quoted-form
widening doesn't open a different evasion.
- 1 new RBAC test in tests/test_api_query_rbac_bq_path.py: admin
hitting an unregistered quoted path returns the same
bq_path_not_registered 403 as the unquoted form.
All 33 Phase 3 tests pass after the fix.
The headline implementation for issue #160. POST /api/query now gates
direct `bq."<dataset>"."<source_table>"` references behind the registry
and bounds the BQ scan cost behind a configurable cap. Wired through
the same singleton QuotaTracker as /api/v2/scan so daily-byte budgets
are shared across both BQ-touching paths.
Changes in app/api/query.py:
- Add module-level `BQ_PATH` regex matching the 16 syntax variants
verified empirically (fully-quoted, unquoted, mixed quoting,
case-insensitive, inside CTE bodies, multi-path, …).
- Add `bigquery_query` to the SQL keyword blocklist. Closes the
pre-existing function-call backdoor where a user could run an
arbitrary BQ jobs API call against any reachable dataset, bypassing
the registry and RBAC. Wrap views internal to the BQ extractor still
use bigquery_query() — but those run via DuckDB view resolution at
query time, not via user-submitted SQL, so the blocklist doesn't
break them.
- Add `_bq_guardrail_inputs` helper: walks user SQL twice — once for
bare-name matches against accessible registered remote-BQ names
(contributes to dry_run_set), once for direct `bq.X.Y` matches
(gated against `find_by_bq_path` lookups, returns 403 with
structured detail on miss or grant violation).
- Add `_enforce_remote_bq_quota_and_cap` helper: pre-flight
`check_daily_budget` (over-cap → 429), then `with quota.acquire(...)`
wraps a per-path BQ dry-run, sums bytes, raises 400
`remote_scan_too_large` when total > cap.
- Cap default 5 GiB; configurable via `api.query.bq_max_scan_bytes`
in /admin/server-config (next phase wires the UI).
- Post-flight `record_bytes` against the user's daily counter.
- Module-level imports of `_bq_dry_run_bytes`, `_build_quota_tracker`,
`get_bq_access` so tests can monkeypatch via `app.api.query.<name>`.
Tests:
- All 23 RED tests from the previous commit now pass (regex matrix,
blocklist with detail-string assertion, RBAC unregistered/admin-bypass,
guardrail dry-run-called/over-cap-rejected, quota pre-flight 429).
- mock_dry_run fixture stubs both `_bq_dry_run_bytes` and `get_bq_access`
so guardrail tests don't require a live BQ project.
- Quota test uses `admin1` (the seeded_app fixture's actual user id, not
`admin`).
Smoke: 887 passed across query/bq/admin/extractor/registry/quota
domains. No regressions.
E2E sub-agent finding: `da query --remote "SELECT * FROM <id>"` against a
materialized table that hasn't yet been rebuilt in the server's
analytics.duckdb returns a confusing DuckDB "Table does not exist"
message even though the table is in the registry. Materialized rows
produce parquets at `${DATA_DIR}/extracts/<source>/data/<id>.parquet`,
but the orchestrator's master-view creation is `_meta`-driven — fresh
instances or pre-tick states have the registry row without a
corresponding view, so analysts hit the bare "does not exist" with no
path forward.
Improve the error rendering in `app/api/query.py:execute_query`. When
DuckDB raises a "table does not exist" error, scan the registry for any
`query_mode='materialized'` row whose id or name appears in the failed
SQL. On a hit, return a 400 whose detail names the table, explains the
materialize state, and offers two concrete next steps:
1. Run `da sync` (or wait for the scheduler tick / hit
POST /api/sync/trigger) to materialize the parquet, OR
2. Query the source directly via the catalog alias when the registry row
carries bucket+source_table (e.g. `bq."dataset"."table"` for BigQuery,
`kbc."bucket"."table"` for Keboola).
Detection is bounded — the registry round-trip only fires when DuckDB's
error mentions a missing table, so happy-path queries pay no cost.
Non-materialized unknowns fall through to DuckDB's raw error.
2 new tests: materialized id surfaces the hint with the bucket+source_table
payload; unknown table falls back to the generic error path with no false
positive on the new hint.
Replaces the BigQuery wrap-view pattern with a discovery + scoped-fetch toolkit driven by the analyst's Claude session. Adds /api/v2/{catalog,schema,sample,scan,scan/estimate}, da catalog/schema/describe/fetch/snapshot/disk-info CLI commands, sqlglot-backed WHERE validator, process-local quota tracker, agent rails skill (cli/skills/agnes-data-querying.md). BREAKING: BQ wrap views off by default — set data_source.bigquery.legacy_wrap_views=true for one cycle. Backward-compat field_validator on primary_key. Catalog cache now matches documented 300s TTL with RBAC fresh per request. Cuts release v0.14.0.
Add information_schema, duckdb_* introspection functions, pragma_* functions,
and relative path traversal patterns to the SQL blocklist so users cannot
enumerate schema metadata regardless of RBAC. Add six corresponding tests.
Replace substring matching with word-boundary regex in query endpoint's
table access validation. Prevents false positives where short table names
like 'id' would block any query containing the word. Uses re.escape() to
safely handle special characters in table names.
- Import re module at top
- Use regex pattern with word boundaries (\b) for matching
- Add tests to verify no false positives and proper blocking
Expand blocked keywords to cover parquet_scan, read_csv_auto, query_table,
iceberg_scan, delta_scan, call, URL schemes (http/https/s3/gcs), and
additional file-scan functions. Set enable_external_access=false on the
non-read-only analytics connection path. Add three new tests covering
parquet_scan, read_csv_auto, and query_table blocking.
Schema v3: add is_public column to table_registry (default true).
src/rbac.py: can_access_table() checks admin bypass, public flag,
explicit permissions, wildcard bucket permissions.
API enforcement:
- manifest: filters tables by user access
- download: 403 if no access
- catalog: filters table list
- query: validates referenced tables against allowed list
New admin permissions API (/api/admin/permissions) for grant/revoke.
28 access control tests + 733 total tests passing.
