```
## Auto-Discovery Patterns
The platform uses three symmetrical auto-discovery mechanisms. Adding a new
connector, auth method, or service requires no changes to existing code.
### 1. Connector Discovery (`src/data_sync.py`)
```
config/instance.yaml -> data_source.type: "keboola"
-> importlib.import_module("connectors.keboola.adapter")
-> KeboolaDataSource (implements DataSource ABC)
```
- Factory: `create_data_source(type)` in `src/data_sync.py`
- Connectors live in `connectors/{name}/adapter.py`
- Must export a `DataSource` subclass or a `create_data_source()` factory function
- Keboola is hard-coded for ImportError handling; all others use dynamic import
### 2. Auth Provider Discovery (`auth/__init__.py`)
```
startup -> scan auth/*/provider.py
-> import `provider` instance
-> filter by is_available() (checks env vars)
-> register blueprint + login button in Flask
```
- ABC: `AuthProvider` with methods `get_name()`, `get_blueprint()`, `get_login_button()`, `is_available()`, `init_app()`
- Session contract: all providers set `session["user"] = {email, name, picture}`
- Login page renders buttons dynamically, sorted by `order` field
### 3. Service Pattern (`services/*/__main__.py`)
```
python -m services. # entry point
services//systemd/ # unit files
deploy.sh auto-discovers # systemd/* in each service dir
```
- Each service is self-contained: code, systemd units, and config in one directory
- `deploy.sh` scans `services/*/systemd/*.service` and `connectors/*/systemd/*.service`
- Long-running services (telegram_bot, ws_gateway) use async dual-server model
- Periodic services (corporate_memory, session_collector) are systemd timer oneshots
## Data Flows
### Pull Sync (Keboola)
```
Keboola Storage API
-> connectors/keboola/client.py (export CSV with filters)
-> src/parquet_manager.py (convert to typed Parquet)
-> /data/src_data/parquet/ (stored on broker)
-> rsync to analyst (scripts/sync_data.sh)
-> DuckDB views (scripts/setup_views.sh)
```
Sync strategies: `full_refresh`, `incremental`, `partitioned`, `chunked_initial_load`.
### Push Sync (Jira)
```
Jira Cloud webhook (issue created/updated/deleted)
-> connectors/jira/webhook.py (HMAC-SHA256 verification)
-> connectors/jira/service.py (fetch full issue + attachments)
-> /data/src_data/raw/jira/issues/ (atomic JSON write)
-> connectors/jira/incremental_transform.py (update monthly Parquet)
-> /data/src_data/parquet/jira/ (6 tables: issues, comments,
attachments, changelog,
issuelinks, remote_links)
```
Background jobs supplement the webhook pipeline:
- `jira-sla-poll` (every 5 min): refreshes SLA fields for open tickets
- `jira-consistency` (every 6h): detects and backfills missing issues
### Notification Pipeline
```
~/user/notifications/*.py analyst's custom scripts
-> server/bin/notify-runner (cron, executes with timeout)
-> cooldown check (~/.notifications/state/)
├-> services/telegram_bot/ (Unix socket /run/notify-bot/bot.sock)
│ -> Telegram chat message (text or photo)
└-> services/ws_gateway/ (Unix socket /run/ws-gateway/ws.sock)
-> WebSocket push to desktop app
```
Script output format:
```json
{
"notify": true,
"title": "Revenue dropped 25%",
"message": "Details...",
"cooldown": "6h",
"image_path": "/tmp/chart.png"
}
```
### Knowledge Loop (Corporate Memory)
```
Analyst writes CLAUDE.local.md (insights, patterns, tips)
-> scripts/sync_data.sh (uploads to server)
-> services/corporate_memory/ (timer, every 30 min)
-> MD5 change detection
-> Claude Haiku extracts knowledge items
-> /data/corporate-memory/knowledge.json
-> webapp /corporate-memory (voting UI: upvote/downvote)
-> scripts/sync_data.sh (downloads to analyst)
-> .claude/rules/ (rules for Claude Code)
-> Claude Code uses rules in next session
```

## Analyst Workspace Layout
Created by `server/bin/add-analyst` for each registered user:
```
/home/{username}/
├── server/ read-only symlinks to shared data
│ ├── parquet/ -> /data/src_data/parquet
│ ├── docs/ -> /data/docs
│ ├── scripts/ -> /data/scripts
│ ├── metadata/ -> /data/src_data/metadata
│ └── jira_attachments/ -> /data/src_data/raw/jira/attachments
├── user/ writable workspace (backed up to server)
│ ├── duckdb/ local DuckDB database
│ ├── notifications/ custom notification scripts (*.py)
│ ├── artifacts/ analysis outputs
│ ├── scripts/ user helper scripts
│ ├── parquet/ user Parquet files
│ └── sessions/ Claude Code session transcripts
├── .notifications/ notification runner state
│ ├── state/ cooldown tracking (JSON per script)
│ └── logs/ runner logs
└── .claude/
└── rules/ corporate memory knowledge rules (auto-synced)
```
## Security Model
### System Groups
| Group | Access |
|-------|--------|
| `data-ops` | Full admin access to all server resources |
| `dataread` | Read access to public Parquet data |
| `data-private` | Read access to sensitive/restricted data |
### Authentication Layers
| Layer | Mechanism | Scope |
|-------|-----------|-------|
| Web portal | Google OAuth / email+password | Browser sessions |
| Desktop app | JWT Bearer tokens | API endpoints (`/api/desktop/*`) |
| Jira webhook | HMAC-SHA256 signature | Webhook endpoint |
| SSH access | Key-based auth only | Data sync (rsync) |
| Inter-service | Unix socket permissions | Bot, gateway, webapp |
### Permission Boundaries
- Analysts cannot access other users' home directories
- Webapp (www-data) uses sudoers-whitelisted commands for user operations
- Deploy user has explicit sudo rules for service management
- Staging directory (`/tmp/data_analyst_staging`) uses setgid for group ownership
- All JSON state files written atomically: `tempfile.mkstemp()` + `os.fchmod()` + `os.replace()`
## Configuration Chain
```
config/instance.yaml (instance-specific, not committed)
| loaded by config/loader.py
| ${ENV_VAR} references resolved from .env / environment
v
webapp/config.py (Flask Config class)
| _load_instance_config() at module level
| _get(config, *keys) for safe nested access
v
inject_config() context processor (exposes Config to templates)
v
{{ config.INSTANCE_NAME }} in Jinja2 (all templates have access)
```
Validation: `config/loader.py` checks required fields at startup (`instance.name`,
`auth.allowed_domain`, `server.host`, `server.hostname`, `auth.webapp_secret_key`).
Missing required fields cause immediate startup failure with a clear error message.

## CI/CD
### Deploy Guard (`.github/workflows/deploy-guard.yml`)
Runs on every pull request:
1. `pytest tests/test_deploy_guard.py` - validates deploy.sh/sudoers/systemd consistency
2. `pytest tests/test_sync_data.py -m "not live"` - validates sync script reliability
3. `visudo -cf server/sudoers-*` - validates sudoers syntax in Docker
### Deployment (`.github/workflows/deploy.yml.example`)
Runs on push to main (or manual trigger):
1. SSH into server
2. Execute `server/deploy.sh` (git pull, deps, scripts, services, ACLs)
