feat(transport): erase a campaign database on request - #85
Conversation
Completes Phase 3 by making per-campaign erasure a real capability rather than an unexposed primitive. A campaign-scoped erase route removes the database for whichever campaign the signed tenant context names. It is deliberately an HTTP route rather than an MCP tool: session_manage is exposed to the model, and a prompt injection able to wipe a campaign is not a capability worth handing over. Only the web host, holding both the service token and a signed tenant context, can reach it. The campaign comes from the verified context and never from the request body, so a caller cannot name another tenant's campaign. Unlike /mcp, an absent tenant is rejected here rather than tolerated: there is no campaign to erase without one, and guessing is not an option. Erasure stays a file operation, which is the practical dividend of the file boundary — there is no way to miss a table and leave a fragment of one customer's game behind. Adds 7 transport tests covering the happy path, neighbour campaigns left intact, a missing tenant context, a context signed with the wrong secret, a missing service token, and a rejected method.
📝 WalkthroughWalkthroughThe HTTP transport adds an authenticated ChangesCampaign deletion
Estimated code review effort: 3 (Moderate) | ~20 minutes Mergeability Score: 🔵 Low · up to The new erasure route is otherwise bounded to the signed tenant campaign, but deletion failures currently return a client-error status instead of a server-error status, which can mislead callers about whether retry or request correction is needed. The PR is mergeable with owner awareness and a small follow-up to correct this response. Sequence Diagram(s)sequenceDiagram

🎯 Functional Correctness | 🟡 Minor | ⚡ Quick win
Return a server-error status for deletion failures.
Line 187 sends 400 after deleteCampaignDatabase throws. The request is already authenticated and validated. An I/O or database failure is not a client request error. Return 500 so clients can distinguish a failed erasure from an invalid request.
Proposed fix
- res.writeHead(400, { 'content-type': 'application/json' });
+ res.writeHead(500, { 'content-type': 'application/json' });📝 Committable suggestion

When this DELETE races with an already-authorized POST /mcp—particularly one still streaming its body—the database is removed without recording that the campaign is being deleted. Once the POST continues, its first getDb() call recreates the campaign database, so this endpoint can return 200 and then leave a new database on disk, defeating the erasure request. Mark the campaign as deleted/deleting and reject or drain its scoped requests before confirming success.
Useful? React with 👍 / 👎.

When deleteCampaignDatabase fails because of a filesystem or deployment problem such as EACCES, EBUSY, or a read-only volume, this branch reports HTTP 400 even though the authenticated request is valid. Callers and retry middleware generally treat 4xx failures as permanent, so the campaign database can remain undeleted without a retry; unexpected deletion failures should return a 5xx response, reserving 400 for a malformed campaign identifier.

Closes out the multi-user work: campaign deletion now erases engine-side game state, and the `lantern:` session prefix is retired. Pairs with `Mnehmos/mnehmos.rpg.mcp` [#85](Mnehmos/mnehmos.rpg.mcp#85), already merged, which provides the route. ## Campaign deletion actually deletes `deleteCampaign` previously dropped only the host's routing row, leaving the campaign's game state behind in the engine. It now erases that state first, then drops the routing row. The order matters: the routing row is the only record that this account owns this campaign, so losing it first would leave an orphaned database with no way to attribute — or erase — it. An engine failure here is logged rather than thrown. The user asked to delete a campaign; refusing because the engine was briefly unreachable would leave them unable to remove it at all, and the routing row is what makes the campaign reachable in the first place. The client targets the engine's erase route rather than a tool, so the capability is not part of the MCP surface the model can see. ## Retiring the `lantern:` prefix `sessionId` was sent on every outbound tool call as `lantern:<accountId>:<campaignId>`. It is now dead weight: since the tenant-context work, the engine derives session identity from the verified `x-rpg-tenant` header and ignores any `sessionId` in arguments. Removed from all outbound calls and from the DM's forced-args block. The stored `reference_session_id` was written but never read by anything, so it is no longer populated. The column is left in place — dropping it would need a migration for no behavioural gain. This also removes the last piece of naming residue implying the retired Lantern engine is still involved. ## Risk Low, but deletion is irreversible by design. - Deleting a campaign now destroys its engine-side data as well as its routing row. That is the intended behaviour and what users expect from a delete, but it is no longer recoverable by re-pointing a routing row. - Engine unreachability during deletion leaves an orphaned campaign database on the volume. The routing row is still removed, so the user sees the campaign gone; the file remains until cleaned up. Chosen deliberately over blocking the delete. - Dropping `sessionId` from outbound arguments is safe because the engine ignores it — verified in `session-manage.ts`, which reads only `ctx.sessionId`, now tenant-derived. ## Acceptance criteria - [x] Deleting a campaign erases engine-side state before dropping the routing row. - [x] An engine failure during deletion does not block removal of the campaign. - [x] No outbound tool call carries a `sessionId` argument. - [x] The `lantern:` prefix no longer appears anywhere in the source. - [x] Existing behaviour otherwise unchanged. ## Verification - `npm test` — 732 passed, no failures. - `npx tsc --noEmit` — exit 0. The DM test that asserted `sessionId: "lantern:account-1:campaign-1"` among forced arguments now asserts its absence, which is the point of the change. 🤖 Generated with [Claude Code](https://claude.com/claude-code)

Risk
Low. The route is unreachable without both the service token and a valid signed tenant context, and it can only ever act on the campaign that context names. It is additive: no existing path changes behaviour.
Verification
7 transport tests, exercising a real server on an ephemeral port:
