Two changes to one rule: a credential is resolved from exactly one place,
and an identity that cannot be resolved is refused rather than substituted.
FAIL CLOSED. Both readers ended in an unconditional fall-through to the
shared Gitea account whenever an identity did not resolve. Every seat in a
fleet therefore pushed, opened PRs and filed reviews under one account, and
a record made that way cannot be traced to the agent that made it
afterwards. The fallback now applies only where there is no attribution to
lose: a host with no fleet. Where seats exist, an unresolvable request emits
nothing, exits nonzero, explains itself on stderr, and — in the git helper —
appends a record naming the identity, host, reason and cwd, and no token
value, to ${MOSAIC_CREDENTIAL_SPOOL:-~/.local/state/mosaic-credential-escalations}.
A host runs a fleet when <brain>/fleet/agents exists, which is the signal
packages/mosaic/src/fleet/brain-home.ts already uses to decide a brain is
active, resolved the same way (MOSAIC_BRAIN_HOME, else ~/.mosaic). This is
what keeps the change a no-op for an operator who has not provisioned
per-slot tokens: no fleet directory, shared account, unchanged. It is also
why there is no environment variable to restore the old behavior — one would
reintroduce the substitution being removed.
STORE SELECTION. Both readers hardcoded ~/.config/mosaic/secrets/gitea-tokens,
so a seat's own secrets/ slot was invisible to the framework: a seat could
hold a valid credential and still be served the shared account. The store is
now chosen by what the identity is. An identity with a directory under
<brain>/fleet/agents/ is a seat and is read only from
<brain>/fleet/agents/<id>/secrets/; any other identity is a service identity
and is read from the framework store. There is no precedence between them
and no fallback from one to the other, so a seat with an empty slot is
refused even when a same-named token sits in the framework store. Two copies
of one credential are drift rather than redundancy, and drift surfaces as
the stale copy returning 401, which reads as a revoked token and sends
whoever debugs it somewhere else.
detect-platform.sh is in scope alongside git-credential-mosaic because they
are the two readers of these tokens. Patching only the git helper would make
"one credential, one location" true for push and fetch and false for
pr-create.sh, issue-create.sh and pr-review.sh, which is the harder failure
to notice.
TESTS. The three assertions that pinned the shared-account fall-through are
now fail-closed assertions, and a refusal is checked four independent ways:
nonzero exit, empty stdout, a stderr diagnostic naming identity and host,
and no shared token value anywhere in the output. The exit code alone would
pass against a helper that emitted the credential and then failed. Added:
seat-slot resolution, the no-cross-store-fallback case with a control
proving the framework-store file it declines to read is readable, no-identity
on a fleet host, the fleet gate firing on the default ~/.mosaic and not only
on an injected MOSAIC_BRAIN_HOME, and a cross-host leak check. Both suites
were run against the pre-change code as a control and fail there on exactly
the shared-token emission.
shellcheck is not installed on the authoring host, so the rewritten helper
is unlinted locally and CI is the first lint of it.

Usage
mosaic wizard # First-run setup wizard
mosaic gateway install # Install the gateway daemon
mosaic config show # View current configuration
mosaic config hooks list # Manage Claude hooks
Headless / CI Installation
Set MOSAIC_ASSUME_YES=1 (or ensure stdin is not a TTY) to skip all interactive prompts. The following environment variables control the install:
Gateway configuration (mosaic gateway install)
| Variable | Default | Required |
|---|---|---|
MOSAIC_STORAGE_TIER |
local |
No |
MOSAIC_GATEWAY_PORT |
14242 |
No |
MOSAIC_DATABASE_URL |
(none) | Yes if tier=team |
MOSAIC_VALKEY_URL |
(none) | Yes if tier=team |
MOSAIC_ANTHROPIC_API_KEY |
(none) | No |
MOSAIC_CORS_ORIGIN |
http://localhost:3000 |
No |
Admin user bootstrap
| Variable | Default | Required |
|---|---|---|
MOSAIC_ADMIN_NAME |
(none) | Yes (headless) |
MOSAIC_ADMIN_EMAIL |
(none) | Yes (headless) |
MOSAIC_ADMIN_PASSWORD |
(none) | Yes (headless) |
MOSAIC_ADMIN_PASSWORD must be at least 8 characters. In headless mode a missing or too-short password causes a non-zero exit.
Example: Docker / CI install
export MOSAIC_ASSUME_YES=1
export MOSAIC_ADMIN_NAME="Admin"
export MOSAIC_ADMIN_EMAIL="[email protected]"
export MOSAIC_ADMIN_PASSWORD="securepass123"
mosaic gateway install
Runtime launchers
mosaic claude # Launch Claude Code with Mosaic injection
mosaic yolo claude # …with --dangerously-skip-permissions
mosaic codex | opencode | pi
mosaic claudex (EXPERIMENTAL)
Runs GPT models inside the Claude Code harness by pointing Claude Code at a
local claude-code-proxy that
translates the Anthropic Messages API to a ChatGPT-subscription (Codex OAuth)
backend. This is not Anthropic Claude — model behavior, tool use, and output
quality may differ. Intended for evaluation, not production delivery.
mosaic claudex # launch (prompts through the proxy readiness gate)
mosaic yolo claudex # …with --dangerously-skip-permissions
mosaic claudex --print "hello" # trailing args are forwarded to Claude Code
Prerequisite: the claude-code-proxy binary must be installed and
authenticated (claude-code-proxy codex auth …). mosaic claudex runs a
preflight that verifies the binary, the OAuth state (triggering a device re-auth
if needed), and a trusted local listener before launching; it fails closed
if the proxy cannot be brought up with a verified identity.
Isolation (never touches your real Claude state). claudex always launches
against an isolated CLAUDE_CONFIG_DIR (default ~/.config/mosaic/claudex/home).
The ambient CLAUDE_CONFIG_DIR is deliberately ignored, and a guard proves the
resolved dir can never be — or live under — the real ~/.claude. A claudex
session therefore cannot mutate your normal Claude Code config.
No token leakage. claudex never reads the proxy's credential file. Claude
Code is handed only ANTHROPIC_AUTH_TOKEN=unused pointed at the loopback proxy;
the entire credential-bearing env family (ANTHROPIC_*, AWS_*, GOOGLE_CLOUD_*,
GOOGLE_APPLICATION_CREDENTIALS, *_TOKEN, *_KEY, *_SECRET, …) is stripped
from the composed environment. The Bedrock/Vertex routing switches
(CLAUDE_CODE_USE_BEDROCK, CLAUDE_CODE_USE_VERTEX, and the _SKIP_*_AUTH
pair) are force-removed regardless of value — otherwise their mere presence
would route Claude Code to the real Anthropic API via AWS/GCP and bypass the
proxy. The proxy holds the real OAuth credential.
Model tiers (override via env).
| Tier | Env var | Default |
|---|---|---|
| primary (opus/sonnet) | ANTHROPIC_MODEL |
gpt-5.6-sol |
| small/fast (haiku) | ANTHROPIC_SMALL_FAST_MODEL |
gpt-5.6-luna |
Operator-provided values win over the defaults. Additional overrides:
MOSAIC_CLAUDEX_CONFIG_DIR (isolated config dir), ANTHROPIC_BASE_URL (proxy
endpoint).
Hooks management
After running mosaic wizard, Claude hooks are installed in ~/.claude/hooks-config.json.
mosaic config hooks list # Show all hooks and enabled/disabled status
mosaic config hooks disable PostToolUse # Disable a hook (reversible)
mosaic config hooks enable PostToolUse # Re-enable a disabled hook
Set CLAUDE_HOME to override the default ~/.claude directory.
