Summary

• An enrollment key carries a use budget, uses (default 1). It replaces reusable. The budget is set when the key is created (NewKey::uses, moq auth mesh create-key --uses N). A key admits at most uses new devices. A device it already enrolled can enroll again without spending a use, so a retry after a lost reply still works. KeyInfo reports uses and used (a count, no longer a bool). Each Device records the key it last enrolled with: only that key re-enrolls it without spending a use, so an exhausted key can't move other devices onto its tags.
• Mesh tokens now last 15 minutes by default (Config::new, --mesh-token-ttl), down from 1h. Relays verify tokens on their own, and a session ends when its grant expires, so this TTL is the longest a revoked device keeps access. Docs and the field comment say so.

Decisions

Taken by the agent under /quest-afk, for the maintainer's review:

• Revocation goes through a short token lifetime, not a revocation check in decide. Rejected: having decide check the coordinator's revocations. That only covers relays that ask moq auth serve running in the same process as the coordinator. A relay that verifies a JWK on its own would never see the revocation, and the check would put a lookup on every decide. This follows AGENTS.md: the bound is enforced where the token is created.
• Default token TTL is 15m. Rejected: 5m, because sessions end at token expiry and would reconnect three times as often; 1h, because revocation would take too long. The owner can change it.
• Only a new device spends a use. Rejected: spending a use on every enroll, which would stop a device from retrying after a lost reply on a single-use key. Only new devices grow the store, so the store's size stays bounded either way.
• The budget is a required NonZeroU32 that defaults to 1. There is no unbounded option and no allow-* flag. Rejected: Option<u32> with None meaning unlimited.

Impact

Public API (breaking, moq_auth::mesh): NewKey::reusable: bool becomes uses: NonZeroU32. KeyInfo::reusable becomes uses, KeyInfo::used changes from bool to u32, and Device gains key. The admin JSON and the state file change the same way. rs/moq-auth/src/mesh isn't on release, so no published user needs to migrate. A state file written by main before this change won't load: recreate its keys. CLI: --reusable becomes --uses N. The default --mesh-token-ttl changes from 1h to 15m. Wire: none.

Parallel quests: mesh-grant-shape changes the grant in the same file, and api-mesh-enrollment fences the structs. Whichever of them lands second adapts. NewKey and KeyInfo are already #[non_exhaustive].

Validation

• cargo test -p moq-auth --all-features mesh: 18 passed. The new case runs over HTTP: a 2-use key enrolls two devices, a third device is refused with invalid_grant, an enrolled device re-enrolls for free, and used == 2 afterwards. a_failed_save_spends_nothing checks that the counter doesn't move when the save fails. Another case shows an exhausted key leaves a device that a different key admitted on that key and spends nothing.
• Review round 3 covers the format-only commit (e5652c3) and the doc fix for Pullfrog's finding (4767e00).
• cargo test -p moq-cli mesh_commands passes. just check passes.
• Ran the real binary: moq auth serve --mesh-url ... --mesh-state state.json, then moq auth mesh create-key --uses 3 --expires 1d and keys. Both returned uses: 3, used: 0, and the state file persisted the same values.
• Sessions ending at grant expiry is already covered by moq-relay re_polling_keeps_the_expiry_deadline.

Caused by

• moq-dev/moq#7301: introduced unbounded reusable keys and hour-long tokens as the only revocation bound.

Reviewed changes

I reviewed the full PR at e5652c3: the enrollment key use budget, the per-key exemption for free re-enrollment, the shorter default token TTL, and the CLI and doc updates.

• Use budget: reusable: bool becomes uses: NonZeroU32 (default 1) on NewKey, StoredKey and KeyInfo, and used becomes a u32 count. A device that isn't yet on the key is refused with invalid_grant once used >= uses.
• Free re-enroll scoped to the key: Device::key records the key a device last enrolled with. Only that key re-enrolls the device without spending a use. The increment happens inside commit, so a failed save spends nothing.
• Token TTL: the default drops from 1h to 15m in Config::new and on --mesh-token-ttl. The docs now say that this TTL bounds how long a revoked device keeps access.
• CLI: moq auth mesh create-key --reusable becomes --uses N. Mesh isn't on release, so no deprecated alias is needed.

Walkthrough

Mesh enrollment keys now have a positive device-use limit and a numeric usage count. A device can re-enroll without consuming another use only when it was enrolled with the same key. The CLI replaces --reusable with --uses and changes the default token lifetime from one hour to 15 minutes. Tests, relay documentation, and quest references are updated to reflect these changes.

Merge Risk: Low · up to e5652

Scripts that still pass --reusable to create-key get a generic parser error instead of a message pointing to --uses. This is a small fix and does not affect enrollment behavior, so the change is mergeable with that follow-up.

Full details: Title check

Explanation

The title accurately names the two main changes: enrollment keys gain a numeric use budget (replacing the reusable flag) and the default token lifetime drops to 15 minutes. It is a single, specific sentence that matches the changeset. It is a breaking change, which the conventional-commit '!' marker correctly signals.

Full details: Description check

Explanation

The description states that the PR finishes quest/m2/mesh-device-bounds.md and lays out the changes: enrollment keys get a use budget (uses, default 1) replacing reusable, the CLI gains --uses N, and the default mesh token TTL drops from 1h to 15m. These match the changeset summary, so the description is on topic and specific.

Reviewed changes

I reviewed the delta since e5652c3, which is one docs-only commit.

• Doc wording fix: the NewKey::uses comment, the Device doc, and doc/bin/relay/auth.md now say only a device whose last enrollment used the key re-enrolls for free. This addresses my earlier finding.

Closing unmerged: the maintainer moved mesh enrollment to Kixel on 2026-11-14, and moq-dev/moq#8756 removes moq_auth::mesh from moq. Kixel's coordinator already has its own certificate-based contract, so this change has no consumer to port to.
