API keys, pre-auth keys and OAuth clients/tokens share one table and verify
path. Secrets carry 256 bits of crypto/rand entropy, so a SHA-256 digest
needs no stretching; bcrypt/argon2id rows rehash on use until 0.32.
Go 1.27 allows setting promoted fields of embedded structs directly in
composite literals, so gorm.Model wrappers go away. Plus strings.Cut,
errors.AsType, reflect.TypeAssert and one gofumpt nit.
Serialize node, user and pre-auth-key responses through the NodeView,
UserView and PreAuthKeyView accessors instead of AsStruct(), which clones
the whole record on every read. Document the convention in AGENTS.md.
Reimplement the v1 API as a code-first Huma service in hscontrol/api/v1,
a thin adapter over the state layer. Huma emits the OpenAPI 3.1 document
(openapi/v1/headscale.yaml) from the Go operation and type definitions;
cmd/gen-openapi writes it and the 3.0.3 downgrade the client is generated
from. Responses reproduce the protojson wire contract (string-encoded
64-bit IDs, all fields emitted, RFC3339/null timestamps); errors map to
the correct HTTP status (404/400/409, 500 for server faults) via mapError.
Serve it on the chi router at /api/v1 behind the existing API-key
middleware, and point /swagger at the emitted spec.
