/iblai-agent-access

Add the agent Access tab -- role-based access management for agents. Lets admins assign editor and chat roles, add/remove users and groups per role, and view existing access policies in a table. This is one tab in the wider agent-settings family (access, api, datasets, disclaimers, embed, history, llm, memory, prompts, safety, settings, tools). All tabs share the same AgentSettingsProvider wrapper.

Access Tab

Do NOT add custom styles, colors, or CSS overrides to ibl.ai SDK components. They ship with their own styling. Keep the components as-is. Do NOT implement dark mode unless the user explicitly asks for it.

When building custom UI around SDK components, use the ibl.ai brand:

  • Primary: #0058cc, Gradient: linear-gradient(135deg, #00b0ef, #0058cc)
  • Button: bg-gradient-to-r from-[#2563EB] to-[#93C5FD] text-white
  • Font: System sans-serif stack, Style: shadcn/ui new-york variant
  • Follow the component hierarchy: use ibl.ai SDK components (@iblai/iblai-js) first, then shadcn/ui for everything else (npx shadcn@latest add <component>). Do NOT write custom components when an ibl.ai or shadcn equivalent exists. Both share the same Tailwind theme and render in ibl.ai brand colors automatically.
  • Follow BRAND.md for colors, typography, spacing, and component styles.

You MUST run /iblai-ops-test before telling the user the work is ready.

After all work is complete, start a dev server (pnpm dev) so the user can see the result at http://localhost:3000.

iblai.env is NOT a .env.local replacement — it only holds the 3 shorthand variables (DOMAIN, PLATFORM, TOKEN). Next.js still reads its runtime env vars from .env.local.

Use pnpm as the default package manager. Fall back to npm if pnpm is not installed.

Common setup (brand, conventions, env files, verification): see docs/skill-setup.md.

Prerequisites

  • Auth must be set up first (/iblai-auth)
  • MCP server + skills configured (@iblai/mcp in .mcp.json)
  • AgentSettingsProvider must wrap the route (see /iblai-agent-setting Step 2 if not already set up)
  • Ask the user for a real mentorId (agent UUID). Do NOT invent one.

Step 1: Check Environment

Before proceeding, check for an iblai.env in the project root. Look for PLATFORM, DOMAIN, and TOKEN variables. If the file does not exist or is missing these variables, tell the user: "You need an iblai.env with your platform configuration. Download the template and fill in your values: curl -o iblai.env https://raw.githubusercontent.com/iblai/vibe/refs/heads/main/iblai.env"

Step 2: Mount AgentAccessTab

The AgentSettingsProvider layout from /iblai-agent-setting Step 2 must already wrap this route. The provider supplies tenantKey, mentorId, username, and enableRBAC via context.

// app/(app)/agents/[mentorId]/access/page.tsx
"use client";

import { AgentAccessTab } from "@iblai/iblai-js/web-containers/next";

export default function AgentAccessPage() {
  return (
    <div className="flex h-full flex-col bg-white">
      <AgentAccessTab />
    </div>
  );
}

Step 3: Customize Labels (Optional)

AgentAccessTab renders with the default agent-facing copy (AGENT_ACCESS_TAB_LABELS). Override any string via the labels prop:

import {
  AgentAccessTab,
  AGENT_ACCESS_TAB_LABELS,
} from "@iblai/iblai-js/web-containers/next";

<AgentAccessTab
  labels={{
    header: { title: "Mentor access", description: "Manage who can edit or chat with this mentor." },
    table: { columns: { role: "Permission level" } },
  }}
/>;

Step 4: Use MCP Tools for Customization

get_component_info("AgentAccessTab")
get_component_info("AgentSettingsProvider")

<AgentAccessTab> Props

Import from @iblai/iblai-js/web-containers/next.

Prop Type Required Description
labels DeepPartial<AccessTabLabels> No Override user-visible strings (header, table columns, empty states, dialogs)
onPermissionsLoaded (permissions: object) => void No Fired when RBAC permissions for /users/ and /groups/ are fetched on mount

Related Exports

From @iblai/iblai-js/web-containers/next:

  • AGENT_ACCESS_TAB_LABELS -- the default agent-facing label bundle.
  • AccessTabLabels -- type for the full label bundle (header, table, empty states, edit dialog, create dialog, role descriptions).

Step 5: Verify

Run /iblai-ops-test before telling the user the work is ready:

  1. pnpm build -- must pass with zero errors
  2. pnpm test -- vitest must pass
  3. Start dev server and touch test:
    pnpm dev &

Important Notes

  • Redux store: Must include mentorReducer and mentorMiddleware
  • initializeDataLayer(): 5 args (v1.2+)
  • @reduxjs/toolkit: Deduplicated via webpack aliases in next.config.ts
  • Peer deps: sonner and @iblai/iblai-web-mentor must be installed (pnpm add sonner @iblai/iblai-web-mentor)
  • Shared provider: AgentSettingsProvider must wrap the route at a layout level. See /iblai-agent-setting Step 2 for the full snippet.
  • RBAC: The tab checks enableRBAC from the provider and rbacPermissions to gate add/edit actions. If enableRBAC is false (the default), all actions are permitted.
  • Default roles: editor and chat. These come from DEFAULT_MENTOR_ROLES in the package and are not configurable via props.
  • Brand guidelines: BRAND.md

RBAC REST API

For custom UI beyond <AgentAccessTab>. All endpoints are prefixed with ${dmUrl}/api/core/ where dmUrl is NEXT_PUBLIC_API_BASE_URL. RBAC state is scoped per platform — pass platform_key={key} on every request.

Concepts

  • Resource paths are hierarchical, rooted at a platform: a policy on /platforms/1/mentors/5/ also applies to /platforms/1/mentors/5/documents/.
  • Actions look like Ibl.Mentor/Mentors/read, Ibl.Mentor/Chat/action, Ibl.* (wildcard).
  • Data actions gate field-level access: Ibl.Mentor/Settings/display_name/read. Unreadable fields return empty values; unwritable fields return 403.
  • Policies bind a Role to Resources for Users and/or Groups. Permissions are additive across all matching policies. Owner well-known roles (mentor-owner, document-owner, etc.) are applied automatically when the requesting user owns the resource.

Roles CRUD — Ibl.Core/Roles/...

Method Path Action
GET rbac/roles/?platform_key={key} list
POST rbac/roles/ action
GET rbac/roles/{id}/?platform_key={key} read
PUT/PATCH rbac/roles/{id}/ write
DELETE rbac/roles/{id}/?platform_key={key} delete

List params: platform_key (required), include_global_roles (default true), name. Body: { name, platform_key, actions[], data_actions[] }.

Policies CRUD — Ibl.Core/Policies/...

Method Path Action
GET rbac/policies/?platform_key={key} list
POST rbac/policies/ action
GET rbac/policies/{id}/?platform_key={key} read
PUT/PATCH rbac/policies/{id}/ write
DELETE rbac/policies/{id}/?platform_key={key} delete

List params: platform_key, role_id, name, username, email, group, include_users, include_groups. Body: { platform_key, name, role_id, resources[], user_ids[], group_ids[] }. Resources must start with /platforms/ and end with /.

Groups CRUD — Ibl.Core/Groups/...

Method Path Action
GET rbac/groups/?platform_key={key} list
POST rbac/groups/ action
GET rbac/groups/{id}/?platform_key={key} read
PUT/PATCH rbac/groups/{id}/ write
DELETE rbac/groups/{id}/?platform_key={key} delete

List params: platform_key, owner, name, username, email, include_users. Body: { platform_key, name, unique_id, description, user_ids[] }.

Permission check (any authenticated user)

POST rbac/permissions/check/
{ "platform_key": "...", "resources": ["/mentors/", "/mentors/42/", "/usergroups/"] }

Returns a map of resource → { list/create/read/write/delete/chat/... }. Accounts for owner roles automatically. Use this to gate UI actions.

Mentor access — Ibl.Mentor/ShareMentor/...

Method Path Action
POST rbac/mentor-access/ action
GET rbac/mentor-access/?platform_key={key}&mentor_id={id} read

Body: { platform_key, mentor_id, role, users_to_add[], users_to_remove[], groups_to_add[], groups_to_remove[] }. Roles: chat | viewer | editor. Substitute usernames_to_add / emails_to_add if you don't have user IDs.

Team (UserGroup) sharing — Ibl.Core/ShareUserGroups/...

Method Path Action
POST rbac/teams/access/ action
GET rbac/teams/access/?platform_key={key}&usergroup_id={id} read

Body: { platform_key, usergroup_id, role, users_to_add[], ... }. Roles: read | edit | view analytics | send notifications.

User policy bulk update — Ibl.Core/UserPolicies/write

PUT platform/users/policies/
[{ "user_id": 101, "platform_key": "...",
   "policies_to_add": [...], "policies_to_remove": [...], "policies_to_set": [...] }]

Only platform-assignable policies are allowed. policies_to_set replaces; removals run before additions.

Platform admin toggles (no extra RBAC action)

Path Body
POST rbac/student-mentor-creation/set/ { platform_key, allow_students_to_create_mentors }
GET rbac/student-mentor-creation/status/?platform_key={key}
POST rbac/student-llm-access/set/ { platform_key, llm_resources: ["llms/openai/models/gpt-4o", ...] }
GET rbac/student-llm-access/status/?platform_key={key}

Response permission metadata

Resource responses include a permissions object the UI can use to gate controls:

"permissions": {
  "field": { "display_name": { "read": true, "write": true } },
  "object": { "delete": false, "write": true }
}

Unreadable fields are masked ("", [], or {}) and read: false.
