fix(security): address CodeQL alerts

[xizhibei]

Description

• replace unkeyed SHA-256 runtime fingerprints with process-local salted scrypt so rendered credentials are not exposed to offline guessing
• rate limit /api/v1/tool-invocations before authorization and execution with a dedicated high-volume policy of 10,000 requests per 15 minutes per IP
• add regression coverage for both CodeQL findings and for bursts above the OAuth rate limit

📝 Walkthrough

Walkthrough

The API route factory now configures rate limiting for tool-invocation requests. The default rate-limit configuration includes a 15-minute window and a 10,000-request cap. createHash now uses a process-local salt with scrypt-derived output.

Changes

API rate limiting

Layer / File(s)	Summary
Tool-invocation rate-limit policy and middleware src/constants/auth.ts, src/transport/http/routes/apiRoutes.ts, src/transport/http/routes/apiRoutes.tool-invocations.test.ts	The route factory accepts an optional rate-limit policy, creates a limiter with standard headers and the configured message, and applies it before authorization. Tests cover limited and unrestricted request bursts.

Salted hashing

Layer / File(s)	Summary
scrypt-based hash generation and validation src/utils/crypto.ts, src/utils/crypto.test.ts	createHash now uses a random module-level salt and scryptSync to produce a hexadecimal digest. Tests verify output differences from unkeyed SHA-256 and repeatability.

Estimated code review effort: 3 (Moderate) | ~20 minutes

Merge Risk: 🔵 Low · up to 2a2f7

The PR improves credential fingerprint protection and adds pre-authorization flood limiting, but synchronous scrypt during request-time template handling could block the event loop and increase latency or reduce throughput under bursts. It is mergeable with explicit owner awareness or follow-up to move this work off the synchronous request path.

Poem

A rabbit watched the limiter count,
While salted hashes hopped about.
The routes now guard each request in line,
And scrypt makes each digest fine.
“Tests pass,” said Bun, “the burrow’s bright!”

Use the shared server-manager mock factory.

This test creates an inline serverManager mock. Replace it with the matching factory from test/unit-utils/MockFactories.ts and override only the methods required by this test. This keeps mock behavior consistent across route tests.

As per coding guidelines, use test/unit-utils/MockFactories.ts for consistent mock data and mock factories.

Replace synchronous hashing on the request-time template path.

createTemplateBasedServers can call getOrCreateClientInstance during request-context preparation. Each call computes templateRuntimeHash, which reaches scryptSync at src/utils/crypto.ts:13. This synchronous, CPU- and memory-intensive operation can block the event loop. Use the process-local keyed HMAC for this identity digest, or use asynchronous scrypt if password-hardening is required.
