docs(adr-0025): authorization model — privileges × roles × scopes
Proposes a three-orthogonal-axis authorization model:

- Privileges (Entra app roles): coarse portal-level capabilities.
  v1 catalogue ships one entry, Portal.Admin.
- Functional roles (Entra security groups mapped to a curated
  slug catalogue): what someone does in APF. 22 v1 entries grouped
  into workforce / governance / volunteer / external.
- Scopes (apf_portal-side user_scopes table, future Pléiades
  feed): where a role applies. 6 v1 kinds (self / etablissement /
  delegation / region / siege / unrestricted).

Replaces stargate's linear hierarchy (Admin ⊃ Directeur ⊃ RH ⊃
Collaborateur) which conflated portal privilege with business
role and ignored geographic scope entirely.

Specifies the Entra-side setup (one app role + one security
group per functional role), the Principal shape consumed by
portal guards, and the deterministic projection to ADR-0024's
flat-roles[] AI-service contract. Ten test-tenant personas
documented for the user to provision in the freshly available
test tenant.

Status: proposed. Implementation phasing recorded in §"More
Information" — types + Principal builder, guards, drift CI gate,
test-tenant seed, in that order.

Architectural Decision Records

This project records architecturally-significant decisions as ADRs in the MADR 4.0.0 format. References: adr.github.io.

Why ADRs

ADRs capture the why behind a decision — context, drivers, options considered, trade-offs accepted — at the moment the decision is made. They make architecture reviewable, onboarding faster, and prevent the same debate from being re-litigated later.

Conventions

  • Format: MADR 4.0.0. Start from template.md.
  • Filename: NNNN-kebab-case-title.md, e.g. 0007-adopt-tailwind-for-design-tokens.md.
  • Numbering: globally sequential 4-digit prefix. Numbers never reset, never get reused — even when an ADR is superseded or deprecated.
  • Layout: flat folder. ADRs are not nested into category subfolders; topical organization happens via tags.
  • Tags: every ADR carries a tags: array in the MADR frontmatter, drawn from the tag vocabulary below. An ADR may carry several tags. Propose new tags (or renames) in the same PR that needs them; never invent ad-hoc tags inline.
  • Status lifecycle: proposedaccepted → optionally deprecated or superseded by [ADR-NNNN](NNNN-other.md). Update the YAML frontmatter; never delete an ADR.
  • Index maintenance: every ADR addition or status change must update the Index below in the same commit.

When to write an ADR

Write one whenever a development decision is non-trivial: tool or library choice, framework pattern, security control, perf budget, a11y target, naming convention, deprecation, breaking change, or any choice that future contributors would benefit from understanding the why of.

Tag vocabulary

The vocabulary below is the source of truth. It is intentionally coarse — propose extensions only when an existing tag genuinely doesn't fit, and avoid overly narrow tags.

Tag Scope
frontend UI, Angular, components, design system, client-side state
backend API, BFF, server-side services
security AuthN, AuthZ, sessions, CSP, dependency scanning, secret management
performance Perf budgets, caching, bundle size, Lighthouse
accessibility WCAG, a11y testing, keyboard, ARIA, contrast
infrastructure CI/CD, hosting, deployment, runtime
observability Logs, metrics, traces, correlation IDs, monitoring
data Persistence, schemas, migrations, data flow
process Team conventions, workflows, repo policy

Status: starter vocabulary, to be refined as ADRs accumulate. Update this table whenever a tag is added, renamed, or retired.

Index

ADRs are listed in numerical order. To slice by topic, filter on the Tags column.
