docs(test): add OIDC/MSC3861 test section + local MAS dev loop
CI / Build & Quality Checks (push) Successful in 13m42s
CI / Trigger Desktop Build (push) Successful in 33s

LOTUS_TESTING.md section N (N1-N6): OIDC login flow, session-persist-on-reload,
token refresh, logout revocation, account-management link, and the non-OIDC
regression check. Backed by dev/oidc-test/ — a runnable local Matrix
Authentication Service + Synapse(msc3861) loop (compose skeleton, the Synapse
experimental_features delta, and the public/config.json override) so the flow
can be verified without a mozilla.org tester.

## N. OIDC / Next-Gen Auth login (MSC3861) — P4-6
The Lotus client can now sign into OIDC-native homeservers (ones that delegate
auth to a Matrix Authentication Service / MAS), e.g. mozilla.org. lotusguild's
own server is **not** MSC3861, so test EITHER against a **local MAS dev loop**
(full setup in `dev/oidc-test/README.md` — docker-compose + Synapse `msc3861`
delta + a `config.json` override) OR against **mozilla.org** with a real account.
### N1. OIDC login flow (the core test) — needs a MAS homeserver
1. On the login screen, select the OIDC homeserver (local `localhost:8008`, or `mozilla.org`).
2. **Expected:** instead of the username/password form, a single **"Continue with single sign-on"** button appears (password + legacy-SSO are suppressed for that server).
3. Click it → redirected to the provider's login page (MAS / `chat.mozilla.org`).
4. Authenticate there → redirected back to `…/auth/oidc/callback` → a brief "Signing you in…" spinner → you land in the app, logged in.
**Expected:** no console CSP violations; you reach the room list as the OIDC user.
### N2. Session persists across reload (token storage)
After N1, hard-refresh the page.
**Expected:** you stay logged in — the OIDC session (access + refresh token + issuer/clientId/claims) was persisted (`cinny_refresh_token`, `cinny_oidc_*` keys in localStorage).
### N3. Token refresh (long-lived session)
Leave the session past the access-token lifetime (MAS default is short — or revoke the access token in the MAS admin UI to force a 401).
**Expected:** the client refreshes transparently (no logout); the stored access token rotates (reactive 401 refresh via the wired `OidcTokenRefresher`).
### N4. Logout revokes at the issuer
Log out from Settings.
**Expected:** back to login; OIDC tokens are revoked at the issuer's `revocation_endpoint` (best-effort) and all `cinny_*` / `cinny_oidc_*` keys are cleared. Logging back in works.
### N5. Account-management deep-link
Settings → Account.
**Expected:** on an OIDC server a **"Manage account"** card appears (opens the provider's account page in a new tab). On a non-OIDC server (lotusguild) the card is **absent**.
### N6. Non-OIDC regression — password login unchanged
Log into **matrix.lotusguild.org** (password) and **matrix.org**.
**Expected:** identical to before — username/password form (+ SSO button where offered). The OIDC path only activates when discovery advertises an issuer, so nothing changes for these servers.

# Local OIDC / next-gen-auth (MSC3861) test loop
The Lotus client gained MSC3861/MSC2965 OIDC login (P4-6). lotusguild's own
homeserver is **not** MSC3861, so to exercise the flow without a mozilla.org
tester you need a local homeserver that delegates auth to a **Matrix
Authentication Service (MAS)**. This is the dev loop.
> Status: the Lotus-client side is unit-tested + gate-green; this server loop is
> the manual end-to-end check. It hasn't been run in CI (no container runtime
> there), so treat version pins as a starting point and bump as needed.
## 1. Stand up MAS + Synapse
The simplest path is the **upstream MAS docker-compose quickstart** — it's
maintained and handles key generation + the database:
<https://element-hq.github.io/matrix-authentication-service/setup/installation.html>
(`docker compose` section). Use it to get MAS + Synapse + Postgres running, then
apply the two Lotus-specific deltas below.
A minimal `compose.yaml` skeleton (generate MAS keys first — do **not** hand-write them):
```yaml
services:
postgres:
image: postgres:16
environment: { POSTGRES_USER: synapse, POSTGRES_PASSWORD: pw, POSTGRES_DB: synapse }
mas:
image: ghcr.io/element-hq/matrix-authentication-service:latest
command: server
ports: ['8090:8080'] # MAS issuer on http://localhost:8090
volumes: ['./mas:/data']
# First run once: `docker compose run --rm mas config generate -o /data/config.yaml`
# then edit /data/mas/config.yaml (see §1a) before `up`.
synapse:
image: ghcr.io/element-hq/synapse:latest
ports: ['8008:8008'] # client/federation API
volumes: ['./synapse:/data']
depends_on: [postgres, mas]
```
### 1a. MAS `config.yaml` — the parts that matter
After `config generate` (which fills in `secrets.keys` + `encryption`), set:
```yaml
http:
public_base: http://localhost:8090/
issuer: http://localhost:8090/
database:
uri: postgresql://synapse:pw@postgres/synapse
matrix:
homeserver: localhost # the server_name
endpoint: http://synapse:8008/
secret: "REPLACE_WITH_A_LONG_SHARED_ADMIN_TOKEN"
clients:
- client_id: "0000000000000000000SYNAPSE"
client_auth_method: client_secret_basic
client_secret: "REPLACE_WITH_A_SHARED_CLIENT_SECRET"
passwords: # so you can create a local test account in the MAS UI
enabled: true
```
### 1b. Synapse `homeserver.yaml` — delegate auth to MAS
See `synapse-msc3861.yaml` in this folder; the key block is:
```yaml
experimental_features:
msc3861:
enabled: true
issuer: http://localhost:8090/
client_id: "0000000000000000000SYNAPSE"
client_auth_method: client_secret_basic
client_secret: "REPLACE_WITH_A_SHARED_CLIENT_SECRET" # == MAS clients[].client_secret
admin_token: "REPLACE_WITH_A_LONG_SHARED_ADMIN_TOKEN" # == MAS matrix.secret
account_management_url: "http://localhost:8090/account"
```
Create a test user via the MAS UI (`http://localhost:8090/`) or
`docker compose exec mas mas-cli manage register-user`.
Sanity check discovery (the client relies on this):
```bash
curl -s http://localhost:8008/.well-known/matrix/client | jq '."m.authentication"'
# -> { "issuer": "http://localhost:8090/", "account": "http://localhost:8090/account" }
```
## 2. Point the Lotus dev client at it
Run the client: `npm start` (vite dev). Override `public/config.json` so the
local server is selectable and custom servers are allowed:
```json
{
"defaultHomeserver": 0,
"homeserverList": ["localhost:8008"],
"allowCustomHomeservers": true,
"hashRouter": { "enabled": false, "basename": "/" }
}
```
Dynamic client registration handles the redirect URI automatically — it's
`<vite-origin>/auth/oidc/callback` (e.g. `http://localhost:5173/auth/oidc/callback`),
and MAS allows `http://localhost` redirects in dev.
## 3. Run the checklist
See **section N** of `../../LOTUS_TESTING.md` for the actual pass/fail steps
(login redirect, callback, session-persist-on-reload, token refresh, logout
revocation, account-management link, and the non-OIDC-regression check).
