/** * HMAC-derived public-share hash for the WorldMonitor Brief. * * The hosted per-user magazine at /api/brief/{userId}/{issueSlot} is * bound to a specific reader via a signed token. Sharing that URL * leaks the recipient's identity to whoever reopens the link, so * "just copy the URL" is not a viable share action. * * Instead the Share button generates a separate public URL at * /api/brief/public/{hash} where {hash} is a deterministic 12-char * HMAC over (userId, issueSlot). The unauth'd public route reads a * pointer key (brief:public:{hash}) that maps back to the original * per-user brief stored at brief:{userId}:{issueSlot}, and renders it * in "public mode" — whyMatters and the user's name are stripped * before HTML emission. * * Secret hygiene: * - BRIEF_SHARE_SECRET is distinct from BRIEF_URL_SIGNING_SECRET so * a leak of one doesn't automatically unmask per-user tokens. * - No rotation helper (_PREV variant) yet; share URLs have a 7-day * TTL and rotating the secret invalidates in-flight share links, * which is acceptable since share is a growth vector, not the * primary delivery channel. Add a PREV shim here if we ever need * graceful rotation. * * All crypto goes through Web Crypto so this module runs unchanged in * Vercel Edge, Node 18+, and Tauri. */ const USER_ID_RE = /^[A-Za-z0-9_-]{1,128}$/; // YYYY-MM-DD-HHMM issue slot — matches the magazine signer's slot // format.
