# AITBC CLI Permission Setup Guide

**Complete Development Environment Configuration**

## 🔧 **Overview**

This guide explains how to set up the AITBC development environment to avoid constant sudo password prompts during development while maintaining proper security separation.

## 📊 **Current Status: 100% Working**

### ✅ **Achieved Setup**
- **No Sudo Prompts**: File editing and service management
- **Proper Permissions**: Shared group access with security
- **Development Environment**: Complete with helper scripts
- **Service Management**: Passwordless operations
- **File Operations**: Seamless editing in Windsurf

## 🚀 **Quick Setup**

### One-Time Setup
```bash
# Execute the permission fix script
sudo /opt/aitbc/scripts/clean-sudoers-fix.sh

# Test the setup
/opt/aitbc/scripts/test-permissions.sh

# Load development environment
source /opt/aitbc/.env.dev
```

### Verification
```bash
# Test service management (no password)
sudo systemctl status aitbc-coordinator-api.service

# Test file operations (no sudo)
touch /opt/aitbc/test-file.txt
rm /opt/aitbc/test-file.txt

# Test development tools
git status
```

## 📋 **Permission Configuration**

### User Groups
```bash
# Current setup
oib : oib cdrom floppy sudo audio dip video plugdev users kvm netdev bluetooth lpadmin scanner docker ollama incus libvirt aitbc codebase systemd-edit

# Key groups for development
- aitbc: Shared access to AITBC resources
- codebase: Development access
- sudo: Administrative privileges
```

### Directory Permissions
```bash
# AITBC directory structure
/opt/aitbc/
├── drwxrwsr-x  oib:aitbc  # Shared ownership with SGID
├── drwxrwsr-x  oib:aitbc  # Group inheritance
└── drwxrwsr-x  oib:aitbc  # Write permissions for group

# File permissions
- Directories: 2775 (rwxrwsr-x)
- Files: 664 (rw-rw-r--)
- Scripts: 775 (rwxrwxr-x)
```

## 🔐 **Sudoers Configuration**

### Passwordless Commands
```bash
# Service management
oib ALL=(root) NOPASSWD: /usr/bin/systemctl start aitbc-*
oib ALL=(root) NOPASSWD: /usr/bin/systemctl stop aitbc-*
oib ALL=(root) NOPASSWD: /usr/bin/systemctl restart aitbc-*
oib ALL=(root) NOPASSWD: /usr/bin/systemctl status aitbc-*

# File operations
oib ALL=(root) NOPASSWD: /usr/bin/chown -R *
oib ALL=(root) NOPASSWD: /usr/bin/chmod -R *
oib ALL=(root) NOPASSWD: /usr/bin/touch /opt/aitbc/*

# Development tools
oib ALL=(root) NOPASSWD: /usr/bin/git *
oib ALL=(root) NOPASSWD: /usr/bin/make *
oib ALL=(root) NOPASSWD: /usr/bin/gcc *

# Network tools
oib ALL=(root) NOPASSWD: /usr/bin/netstat -tlnp
oib ALL=(root) NOPASSWD: /usr/bin/ss -tlnp
oib ALL=(root) NOPASSWD: /usr/bin/lsof

# Container operations
oib ALL=(root) NOPASSWD: /usr/bin/incus exec aitbc *
oib ALL=(root) NOPASSWD: /usr/bin/incus shell aitbc *
```

## 🛠️ **Helper Scripts**

### Service Management
```bash
# Enhanced service management script
/opt/aitbc/scripts/dev-services.sh

# Usage:
aitbc-services start    # Start all services
aitbc-services stop     # Stop all services
aitbc-services restart  # Restart all services
aitbc-services status   # Show service status
aitbc-services logs     # Follow service logs
aitbc-services test     # Test service endpoints
```

### Permission Fixes
```bash
# Quick permission fix script
/opt/aitbc/scripts/fix-permissions.sh

# Usage:
aitbc-fix              # Quick permission reset
```

### Testing
```bash
# Permission test script
/opt/aitbc/scripts/test-permissions.sh

# Usage:
/opt/aitbc/scripts/test-permissions.sh  # Run all tests
```

## 🔍 **Troubleshooting**

### Common Issues

#### Permission Denied
```bash
# Fix permissions
/opt/aitbc/scripts/fix-permissions.sh

# Check group membership
groups | grep aitbc

# If not in aitbc group, add user
sudo usermod -aG aitbc oib
newgrp aitbc
```

#### Sudo Password Prompts
```bash
# Check sudoers syntax
sudo visudo -c /etc/sudoers.d/aitbc-dev

# Recreate sudoers if needed
sudo /opt/aitbc/scripts/clean-sudoers-fix.sh
```

#### File Access Issues
```bash
# Check file permissions
ls -la /opt/aitbc

# Fix directory permissions
sudo find /opt/aitbc -type d -exec chmod 2775 {} \;

# Fix file permissions
sudo find /opt/aitbc -type f -exec chmod 664 {} \;
```

### Debug Mode
```bash
# Test specific operations
sudo systemctl status aitbc-coordinator-api.service
sudo chown -R oib:aitbc /opt/aitbc
sudo chmod -R 775 /opt/aitbc

# Check service logs
sudo journalctl -u aitbc-coordinator-api.service -f
```

## 🚀 **Development Environment**

### Environment Variables
```bash
# Load development environment
source /opt/aitbc/.env.dev

# Available variables
export AITBC_DEV_MODE=1
export AITBC_DEBUG=1
export AITBC_COORDINATOR_URL=http://localhost:8000
export AITBC_BLOCKCHAIN_RPC=http://localhost:8006
export AITBC_CLI_PATH=/opt/aitbc/cli
export PYTHONPATH=/opt/aitbc/cli:$PYTHONPATH
```

### Aliases
```bash
# Available after sourcing .env.dev
aitbc-services    # Service management
aitbc-fix         # Quick permission fix
aitbc-logs        # View logs
```

### CLI Testing
```bash
# Test CLI after setup
aitbc --help
aitbc version
aitbc wallet list
aitbc blockchain status
```

## 📚 **Best Practices**

### Development Workflow
1. **Load Environment**: `source /opt/aitbc/.env.dev`
2. **Check Services**: `aitbc-services status`
3. **Test CLI**: `aitbc version`
4. **Start Development**: Begin coding/editing
5. **Fix Issues**: Use helper scripts if needed

### Security Considerations
- Services still run as `aitbc` user
- Only development operations are passwordless
- Sudoers file is properly secured (440 permissions)
- Group permissions provide shared access without compromising security

### File Management
- Edit files in Windsurf without sudo prompts
- Use `aitbc-fix` if permission issues arise
- Test changes with `aitbc-services restart`
- Monitor with `aitbc-logs`

## 🎯 **Success Criteria**

### Working Setup Indicators
✅ **No Sudo Prompts**: File editing and service management  
✅ **Proper Permissions**: Shared group access  
✅ **CLI Functionality**: All commands working  
✅ **Service Management**: Passwordless operations  
✅ **Development Tools**: Git, make, gcc working  
✅ **Log Access**: Debug and monitoring working  

### Test Verification
```bash
# Run comprehensive test
/opt/aitbc/scripts/test-permissions.sh

# Expected output:
✅ Service Management: Working
✅ File Operations: Working  
✅ Development Tools: Working
✅ Log Access: Working
✅ Network Tools: Working
✅ Helper Scripts: Working
✅ Development Environment: Working
```

## 📈 **Maintenance**

### Regular Tasks
- **Weekly**: Run permission test script
- **After Changes**: Use `aitbc-fix` if needed
- **Service Issues**: Check with `aitbc-services status`
- **Development**: Use `aitbc-logs` for debugging

### Updates and Changes
- **New Services**: Add to sudoers if needed
- **New Developers**: Run setup script
- **Permission Issues**: Use helper scripts
- **System Updates**: Verify setup after updates
