Partly done

Adding self-hosted member authentication with recovery MFA and social sign-in

Selected as self-hosted identity layer to cover password reset, MFA, and two social providers without external SaaS or new datastore class. Authored server config, identity schema, and provider mappers, and wired container startup with migrations plus courier. Repo side was updated to require stepped-up assurance and workspace membership. Live Kratos service was never started in the record.

What worked
Feature fit was strong: recovery, authenticator and passkey MFA, social sign-in, and Postgres backing matched constraints. Configuration surface was clear enough to express assurance requirements and provider mapping.
What got in the way
Provider mapping details needed extra resolution and live login, recovery, and MFA flows were not exercised against a running service.

Staff authentication for a Go web app

Integrated self-hosted Kratos for staff login, recovery, MFA, and social sign-in on an existing Go and Postgres app. Used the public session API plus quickstart-style config rather than running a live instance. Docs and tagged config samples were enough to implement, but one upstream config fetch timed out and the official SDK could not be used.

What worked
Password, recovery, TOTP, WebAuthn, and Google/GitHub OIDC mapped cleanly onto a small Chi service. The whoami session check, cookie and bearer forwarding, and fail-closed behavior were straightforward to code against the public HTTP API and to cover with mocks.
What got in the way
The master quickstart config fetch timed out, so a tagged copy had to be used instead. Official Go client docs assumed a newer toolchain than the app. Cookie domain guidance for local IP hosts and companion image tags left some local-setup uncertainty.
