…ng it from cache (LE-2099) The LE-2109 reconciliation cache was keyed by the exact directory state it verified, and entries were only ever added and aged out. A group set that was cached, then changed, then changed back still matched its earlier entry, so a promotion followed by an IdP revocation kept the promoted role until the stale entry expired - up to EXTERNAL_AUTH_GROUP_RECONCILE_INTERVAL_SECONDS on the replica holding it, and the authorization plugin was never consulted in that window. QA reproduced it as [devs] -> [admins, devs] -> [devs]: the last step served admin for 60s. The cache now holds one entry per user: the last state a confirming pass verified. A request is skipped only when that entry is fresh and carries the same state, so any claim that differs from the last reconciled state misses by construction, including one that was itself cached earlier. Two more rules cover overlapping passes for one user (an old and a new token in flight together): a miss drops the user's entry and hands the pass a ticket that only the latest pass holds, and a pass that changed the stored state invalidates - dropping the entry and revoking the outstanding ticket - so a concurrent no-op pass that verified the previous state can neither be served nor remembered after the change landed. The settings description already promised "a group set that differs from the last reconciled one always reconciles immediately"; the implementation now matches it.

Follow-up to #14579, from QA verification of the LE-2109 reconciliation cache
(LE-2099, Rafael's 2026-08-15 comment). Everything else in that cache checked
out — 10 identical requests reconcile once plus one confirming pass, a
20-request page load reconciles zero times, a new group set reconciles at
once — but one direction did not: revocation back to a group set that had
been cached earlier.
The defect
The cache was keyed by the exact directory state it verified, and entries were
only ever added and aged out by TTL. Nothing invalidated a user's other entries
when a reconciliation moved their state. So a group set that was cached, then
changed, then changed back still matched its old entry:
The plugin was never consulted during that window. The impact is bounded — the
cache is per-process so another replica reconciles the revocation immediately,
the window is capped by
LANGFLOW_EXTERNAL_AUTH_GROUP_RECONCILE_INTERVAL_SECONDS(default 60) and self-corrects, and
0removes it — but it is a regressionagainst the pre-cache behaviour, in the one direction that must not be delayed,
and it contradicts what #14579 and the settings description promise: "a group
set that differs from the last reconciled one always reconciles immediately."
The fix
_DirectoryReconcileCachenow holds one entry per user: the last state aconfirming pass verified. A request is skipped only while that entry is fresh
and carries the same state, so any claim that differs from the last
reconciled state misses by construction — including a state that was itself
cached earlier and has since been moved past. That is Rafael's second
suggested shape, and it makes the settings description true as written.
Two further rules keep an entry from outliving the state it verified when
passes for one user overlap (an old and a new token in flight together on the
same process):
begin()records a miss: it drops the user's entry, because the claimbeing reconciled supersedes it, and hands the pass a ticket. Only the pass
holding the user's latest ticket may
remember().invalidate()runs right after a commit that changed the stored state:it drops the entry and revokes the outstanding ticket, so a concurrent no-op
pass that verified the previous state can neither be served nor re-cache
it after the change landed.
Both are per-user (an
OrderedDictbounded like the entries), so first-loginchurn for other users does not discard this user's cache. Everything #14579
established still holds: a pass that changed something is not cached until a
confirming pass runs, skipped requests still commit the JIT/profile
bookkeeping, and the interval setting means what it says. No EE change is
needed — the plugin is untouched; EE picks this up at its next
oss-versionbump.
Test plan
test_group_revoked_after_promotion_reconciles_immediately— Rafael'ssequence end to end (login, confirming pass, promotion, revocation, cache
resumes, second promotion). Fails against the current cache at the revocation
step (
assert 3 == 4), passes with the fix.test_revocation_reconciles_even_after_the_promotion_was_confirmed_and_cached— both the earlier and the promoted state cached; the older must not win.
Fails before, passes after.
test_reconcile_cache_is_scoped_per_user— one user's entry never evictsor leaks into another's.
test_change_landing_after_a_concurrent_noop_pass_evicts_its_entryandtest_noop_pass_that_verified_a_superseded_state_is_not_remembered— the twooverlapping-pass interleavings. Mutation-checked: disabling
invalidate()fails exactly the first, ignoring the ticket fails exactly the second.
