zeekayandHanzo Dev 5f71d2496b The router is three nouns, and every one of them is concrete
App, Group, Operation. A group is a prefix and what holds under it, an operation
is one typed route declared there, and the verb methods are generic methods —
which Go 1.27 allows on a concrete type and still refuses on an interface. So In
and Out come from the handler and the caller writes no type arguments:

	users := app.Group("/v1/users")
	users.Post("/", api.Create)

	mint := users.Group("/mint").With(middleware.Mint(gate))
	mint.Post("/deposit", api.Deposit)

A Group is a CLOSED HANDLE: two unexported fields, and no method that hands back
the app, the parent or the fiber underneath. A subsystem given the group at its
own prefix cannot reach above it, so confinement is a property of the type
instead of a rule something has to police — which is what a host needs in order
to hand out a bounded surface and know what comes back.

That is bought by giving up the router interface, deliberately. Router and
OpTarget are gone, and with them the ability to implement a route table outside
this package: a decorator is no longer a router, a gate is middleware on a group,
and a bound is a path. The five package-level verb functions go the same way —
a registration is a method on the thing it registers into.

Raw carries what is not a typed operation: a stream, an upgrade, a probe, a
foreign subtree. It names its method, and it is the longer spelling because
opting out of the typed model is the exception and should read like one.

zip middleware

Generic middleware for the zip framework. Auth-specific middleware (JWT validation, identity-header stripping) lives in github.com/hanzoai/gateway/middleware — see "Why auth lives in gateway" below.

Available middleware

Name Purpose
Recover() panic → JSON 500
Logger(luxlog.Logger) request log via luxfi/log
RequestID() X-Request-Id propagation
Timeout(d) per-request ctx deadline
MaxBody(n) request size limit
CORS(opts) standard CORS
RateLimit(opts) per-key token bucket
Telemetry(o11yClient) OTel span + request metrics

Why auth lives in gateway

JWT validation + identity-header minting are the responsibility of the gateway subsystem (per HIP-0106). Other subsystems mounted inside the unified cloud binary trust the gateway-minted X-Org-Id header and do NOT re-validate JWTs themselves — re-running JWT validation per-subsystem is wasteful and risks divergent validation rules.

Subsystems that need to ASSERT the request was gateway-minted import github.com/hanzoai/gateway and call gateway.AssertGatewayMinted(c).

Pipeline order

Recommended order for a service that mounts zip behind hanzoai/gateway:

app.Use(
    middleware.Recover(),                // 1. always first
    middleware.RequestID(),              // 2. mint request id
    middleware.Logger(app.Logger()),     // 3. log with request id
    middleware.Telemetry(o11y),          // 4. metrics
    middleware.RateLimit(rlCfg),         // 5. limit
    middleware.CORS(corsCfg),            // 6. last — close to response
)

JWT validation + identity-header stripping/minting is owned by the gateway subsystem; see github.com/hanzoai/gateway/middleware.
