Implement Admin Moderation Tassadar2499 Novatune

Implement Admin / Moderation Skill

Plan and implement Stage 8 Admin/Moderation for NovaTune: user management, track moderation, analytics dashboards, and tamper-evident audit logging.

Overview

Stage 8 implements administrative capabilities with:

• GET /admin/users - List/search users with pagination
• GET /admin/users/{userId} - Get user details
• PATCH /admin/users/{userId} - Update user status with reason codes
• GET /admin/tracks - List/search all tracks across users
• GET /admin/tracks/{trackId} - Get track details (admin view)
• POST /admin/tracks/{trackId}/moderate - Moderate track with reason codes
• DELETE /admin/tracks/{trackId} - Admin delete with audit trail
• GET /admin/analytics/overview - Dashboard overview metrics
• GET /admin/analytics/tracks/top - Top tracks by play count
• GET /admin/analytics/users/active - Most active users
• GET /admin/audit-logs - View audit logs with filtering
• GET /admin/audit-logs/{auditId} - Get audit entry details
• GET /admin/audit-logs/verify - Verify audit chain integrity

Implementation Plan

Phase 1: Data Models and Configuration

1. Audit Log Entry Model (ApiService/Models/Admin/AuditLogEntry.cs)

   • Actor identity, timestamp, action, target, reason codes
   • Hash chain fields: PreviousEntryHash, ContentHash
   • 1-year retention via RavenDB document expiration

2. Moderation Status Enum (ApiService/Models/ModerationStatus.cs)

   • None, UnderReview, Disabled, Removed

3. Admin DTOs (ApiService/Models/Admin/)

   • AdminUserListItem, AdminUserDetails, UpdateUserStatusRequest
   • AdminTrackListItem, AdminTrackDetails, ModerateTrackRequest
   • AnalyticsOverview, TopTrackItem, UserActivityItem
   • AuditLogListItem, AuditLogDetails

4. Configuration (ApiService/Configuration/AdminOptions.cs)

   • Page size limits, audit retention days, integrity verification settings

5. Reason Codes (ApiService/Models/Admin/ModerationReasonCodes.cs)

   • copyright_violation, community_guidelines, illegal_content, etc.

Phase 2: RavenDB Indexes

1. AuditLogs_ByFilters (ApiService/Infrastructure/Indexes/)

   Map = entries => from entry in entries
                    select new
                    {
                        entry.ActorUserId,
                        entry.Action,
                        entry.TargetType,
                        entry.TargetId,
                        entry.Timestamp,
                        entry.ReasonCode
                    };
   

2. Users_ForAdminSearch (ApiService/Infrastructure/Indexes/)

   • Full-text search on email and display name
   • Filter by status, roles

3. Tracks_ForAdminSearch (ApiService/Infrastructure/Indexes/)

   • Full-text search on title and artist
   • Filter by status, moderation status, user ID

Phase 3: Service Layer

1. IAuditLogService (ApiService/Services/Admin/)

   • LogAsync(request, ct) - Create audit entry with hash chain
   • ListAsync(query, ct) - List with filtering and pagination
   • GetAsync(auditId, ct) - Get single entry
   • VerifyIntegrityAsync(startDate, endDate, ct) - Verify hash chain

2. IAdminUserService (ApiService/Services/Admin/)

   • ListUsersAsync(query, ct)
   • GetUserAsync(userId, ct)
   • UpdateUserStatusAsync(userId, request, adminUserId, ct)
   • RevokeUserSessionsAsync(userId, ct)

3. IAdminTrackService (ApiService/Services/Admin/)

   • ListTracksAsync(query, ct)
   • GetTrackAsync(trackId, ct)
   • ModerateTrackAsync(trackId, request, adminUserId, ct)
   • DeleteTrackAsync(trackId, request, adminUserId, ct)

4. IAdminAnalyticsService (ApiService/Services/Admin/)

   • GetOverviewAsync(ct)
   • GetTopTracksAsync(count, period, ct)
   • GetActiveUsersAsync(count, period, ct)

Phase 4: Authorization Policies

1. Admin Policy (ApiService/Configuration/)

   options.AddPolicy("AdminOnly", policy =>
       policy.RequireClaim(ClaimTypes.Role, "Admin"));
   
   options.AddPolicy("AdminWithAuditAccess", policy =>
       policy.RequireAssertion(context =>
           context.User.HasClaim(ClaimTypes.Role, "Admin") &&
           context.User.HasClaim("permissions", "audit.read")));
   

Phase 5: API Endpoints

1. AdminEndpoints.cs (ApiService/Endpoints/)

   var group = app.MapGroup("/admin")
       .RequireAuthorization(PolicyNames.AdminOnly)
       .WithTags("Admin");
   
   // User management
   users.MapGet("/", HandleListUsers).RequireRateLimiting("admin-user-list");
   users.MapPatch("/{userId}", HandleUpdateUserStatus).RequireRateLimiting("admin-user-modify");
   
   // Track moderation
   tracks.MapPost("/{trackId}/moderate", HandleModerateTrack).RequireRateLimiting("admin-track-modify");
   tracks.MapDelete("/{trackId}", HandleDeleteTrack).RequireRateLimiting("admin-track-modify");
   
   // Analytics
   analytics.MapGet("/overview", HandleGetOverview).RequireRateLimiting("admin-analytics");
   
   // Audit logs
   audit.MapGet("/", HandleListAuditLogs).RequireRateLimiting("admin-audit");
   audit.MapGet("/verify", HandleVerifyIntegrity);
   

2. Rate Limiting Policies

   • admin-user-list: 60 req/min
   • admin-user-modify: 30 req/min
   • admin-track-list: 60 req/min
   • admin-track-modify: 30 req/min
   • admin-analytics: 30 req/min
   • admin-audit: 30 req/min

Phase 6: Audit Log Hash Chain

1. Hash Computation

   private static string ComputeHash(AuditLogEntry entry)
   {
       var content = $"{entry.AuditId}|{entry.ActorUserId}|{entry.Action}|" +
                     $"{entry.TargetType}|{entry.TargetId}|{entry.Timestamp:O}|" +
                     $"{entry.PreviousState}|{entry.NewState}|{entry.PreviousEntryHash}";
   
       using var sha256 = SHA256.Create();
       var hashBytes = sha256.ComputeHash(Encoding.UTF8.GetBytes(content));
       return Convert.ToHexString(hashBytes).ToLowerInvariant();
   }
   

2. Chain Verification

   • Load entries in timestamp order
   • Verify each entry's PreviousEntryHash matches previous entry's ContentHash
   • Verify each entry's ContentHash matches recomputed hash

Phase 7: Integration Points

1. Stage 1 (Authentication) - Session revocation when user disabled
2. Stage 5 (Track Management) - Reuse soft-delete flow for admin deletions
3. Stage 7 (Telemetry) - Query analytics aggregates for dashboards

Phase 8: Observability

1. Metrics (ApiService/Infrastructure/Observability/)

   • admin_user_status_changes_total
   • admin_track_moderations_total
   • admin_track_deletions_total
   • admin_audit_queries_total
   • admin_audit_integrity_checks_total

2. Logging

   • Admin operations logged at Warning level
   • Never log reason text content (NF-4.5)

Phase 9: Testing

1. Unit Tests

   • AuditLogServiceTests - Hash chain, integrity verification
   • AdminUserServiceTests - Status changes, session revocation
   • AdminTrackServiceTests - Moderation, deletion

2. Integration Tests

   • End-to-end admin workflows
   • Authorization enforcement
   • Audit trail verification

Validation Checklist

• All admin endpoints require Admin role
• Audit log access requires additional permission
• Every state-changing operation creates audit entry
• Audit entries include hash chain for tamper evidence
• Admin cannot modify own status (self-lockout prevention)
• Rate limiting enforced on all admin endpoints
• Analytics queries use Stage 7 aggregates
• Session revocation works when user disabled
• Track moderation integrates with Stage 5 deletion flow
• All operations logged with correlation ID
