📝 WalkthroughWalkthroughThe change adds unattended server enrollment through a cloud-issued token. The CLI accepts Merge Risk: 🟡 Moderate · up to Unattended installation can still report success without completing cloud registration, leaving a node unusable; enrollment tokens may also be exposed through process arguments, and test failures can leak private keys into CI logs. Merge should wait for these bounded correctness and security issues to be addressed or explicitly accepted. Comment |

🍪 biscuit: ✅ ready to merge — auto-review, non-blocking
I read through all the changed files carefully: the new registerWithEnrollToken function, the pkg/registration additions, the unit tests in cli/commands/server_register_enroll_test.go and pkg/registration/registration_test.go, the blackbox harness, and the CI workflow changes.
The design is sound. The unattended path is cleanly separated from the interactive one — Register dispatches to registerWithEnrollToken at the top before touching any of the interactive state, so the two flows can't accidentally contaminate each other. The no-fallback guarantee is correctly implemented: the code checks result.Status != StatusRegistered and returns a terminal error rather than falling through to polling. The comment explaining why (no human at a browser) is exactly the kind of reasoning that pays off when someone is tempted to change it later.
The idempotency strategy is deliberate and well-considered. Saving the key before the HTTP request, then reusing a leftover key on retry, is the right approach for a machine that might crash mid-flight. The tests in TestRegisterWithEnrollTokenReusesSavedKeypairOnRetry directly assert the key identity that makes this work. PublicKeyFromPrivateKeyPEM is tested round-trip and against bad input.
A few things I noticed but that don't block merging:
-
registerWithEnrollTokenskips thepending-record resume path. If a prior interactive enrollment left apendingrecord and someone then callsregister --enroll-token, the enroll path only guards againstapproved, so it happily clobbers the initializing state with the same-named cluster without noticing the pending record. This is probably fine in practice (pending records are transient, and the two flows are intended to be mutually exclusive), but it is a subtle asymmetry. It doesn't represent a correctness bug for the unattended case. -
server_install.gopassesEnrollTokentoRegistereven when apendingrecord was found (line ~401). That means the install command would silently enter the unattended path when re-run with--enroll-tokenon a box that already had a pending interactive registration. This is a mild interaction, but the failure mode is terminal and user-visible, so it's self-correcting. -
The CI routing for
TestServerEnrollWithTokenis correct: it's excluded from the sharded blackbox runner and pinned totest-blackbox-pop(where the cloud repo andCLOUD_REPO_TOKENare available), and it skips gracefully when the cloud build predates the mint route. That's the same pattern the other cloud-backed tests use and it's appropriate here.
The test coverage is solid: happy path, three rejection codes, the interactive-fallback guard, and the key-reuse retry. The blackbox test adds end-to-end confidence including the spent-token replay check. This is ready to merge.

Miren Cloud's enrollment service mints single-use enroll tokens and hands out a cloud-init payload whose final step runs `miren server install --enroll-token <token>`. The runtime had no support for that flag: registration could only go through the interactive browser-approval flow, where the CLI prints an auth URL and polls until a human approves. This teaches the runtime the unattended path. The registration client now sends the token on the initiate request and understands the synchronous "registered" response cloud returns for a valid token, which carries the cluster identity directly and has nothing to poll for. The `server install` and `server register` commands take an --enroll-token flag and route to that path, saving an approved registration in one shot with no browser step. A token cloud rejects is terminal: a machine booted from cloud-init has no human at a browser, so falling back to the interactive flow would strand it waiting for an approval nobody knows to give. Auth after enrollment is a challenge-response against the public key the node supplies, so the private key it already holds is the whole secret and no new credential is stored. On an interrupted retry the saved keypair is reused so cloud can replay the original registration for the same key rather than refusing a spent token.

The other blackbox tests that touch cloud hand-write registration.json and never drive the runtime's own registration command, so nothing exercised the enroll flow end to end. This adds a test that mints a real enroll token against a live cloud and runs `miren server register --enroll-token`, checking an approved registration lands with real cluster and service-account IDs, and that a spent token is refused on replay. It needs only the cloud control plane, not the full POP environment the existing helper stands up, so it adds a lighter NewCloudControlPlane that boots cloud alone and mints through the same user-facing APIs an operator would: create an org, which makes you its admin, then mint. Wiring it into CI took some care. Cloud-backed tests run in their own job with the cloud repo checked out, one test per step, and are excluded from the sharded suite that runs without cloud (where they would silently skip). The test is added to that job and to both exclusion lists so it actually runs rather than being skipped forever. Claude-Session: https://claude.ai/code/session_0185j32Ei3k78Cfh8QMGAPbX

Do not print the persisted private key in failure output.
Line 62 logs the complete registration.json content. Lines 68 and 76 log the complete reg struct. Both values can include PrivateKey. A failed blackbox test can therefore expose a service-account private key in CI logs.
Log only non-secret fields such as Status, ClusterID, OrganizationID, and ServiceAccountID.

Miren Cloud's enrollment service is done: it mints single-use enroll tokens and generates a cloud-init payload whose last step runs
miren server install --enroll-token <token>. The runtime was the missing half. Registration could only go the interactive way, where the CLI prints an auth URL and polls until a human approves in a browser. A machine booting itself from cloud-init has no human at a browser, so that path was a dead end for it.This builds the runtime side. The registration client now sends the token on the initiate request and understands the synchronous "registered" response cloud returns for a valid token, which carries the cluster identity directly and has nothing to poll for.
server installandserver registertake an--enroll-tokenflag and route to that path, saving an approved registration in one shot. A token cloud rejects is terminal on purpose: falling back to the interactive flow would leave an unattended machine waiting for an approval nobody knows to give. There's no new secret at rest, since auth after enrollment is a challenge-response against the public key the node supplies, and on an interrupted retry the saved keypair is reused so cloud can replay the original registration instead of refusing a spent token.The second commit adds an end-to-end test. None of the existing cloud-backed blackbox tests actually drive the runtime's registration command (they hand-write registration.json), so this is the first to exercise the real handshake. It mints a token against a live cloud and runs
miren server register --enroll-token, then checks the approved registration and that a spent token is refused. It only needs the cloud control plane, so it adds a lighterNewCloudControlPlaneharness helper alongside the existing full-environment one. Wiring it into CI took a beat: cloud-backed tests run in their own job with the cloud repo checked out and are excluded from the sharded suite that runs without cloud, so the test is added to that job and to the exclusion lists rather than being silently skipped forever.One thing this deliberately leaves for cloud: a token-enrolled cluster currently anchors its workload identity at the cluster rather than at cloud, because cloud's registered response omits the
identity_issuer_urlthat the interactive responses carry. That's tracked in MIR-1691.Closes MIR-1687
