Member-level perms in OrgPermissions only fire when
input.object.owner == input.subject.id (see the org_member rule in
coderd/rbac/policy.rego). Resources whose RBACObject() does not set
WithOwner(...) at production call sites can never satisfy that
condition; granting them at Member scope is dead code. PR 1's
enumeration inherited these from the legacy allPermsExcept(...)
wildcard. This commit drops them so the floor matches its documented
scope and adds an "Intentionally omitted" block in roles.go listing
each removed type and the reason it stays out, for posterity.
Removed from both OrgMemberPermissions and OrgServiceAccountPermissions
Member maps:
- ResourceTemplate {read, use}
Template.RBACObject sets InOrg and ACLs but no Owner. Org-member
template.use is granted via the "Everyone" ACL path
(acl_group_list[org_owner] populated on each template's
GroupACL); that is the rule that fires in createWorkspace, not
the Member-level grant.
- ResourceGroup {read}
Group.RBACObject sets a per-group GroupACL granting read to the
group's own ID, but no Owner. "Groups I'm a member of can read
themselves" is the ACL path. Reading other groups requires
a higher role.
- ResourceWorkspaceProxy {read}
WorkspaceProxy.RBACObject sets only WithID. All production call
sites use the bare resource; Member-level grant never fires.
- ResourceProvisionerJobs {*}
No DB model implements RBACObject. Handler call sites use
.InOrg(org.ID) only; coderd/provisionerjobs.go:100 documents
the intent as "only owners and template admins can access
provisioner jobs."
- ResourceWorkspaceAgentResourceMonitor {*}
Dbauthz call sites use the bare resource for system / telemetry
reads. Owner-scoped checks (e.g.
FetchVolumesResourceMonitorsByAgentID) route through the
workspace object instead, so the Member-level monitor grant is
never the path that authorizes.
- ResourceWorkspaceAgentDevcontainers {*}
Dbauthz call sites use the bare resource. Agent-side perms come
from system roles.
- ResourceTailnetCoordinator {*}
Dbauthz call sites use the bare resource. Tailnet ops are
granted to system / agent roles.
- ResourceReplicas {read}
Bare resource at the single call site in
enterprise/coderd/replicas.go; Member-level never fires.
Behavior-preserving: all eight grants were also dead under the
legacy allPermsExcept(...) wildcard. The rbac, dbauthz, coderd, and
enterprise/coderd test suites pass at the same scope verified for
the initial PR 1 commit.
Coder is a self-hosted platform for cloud development environments and AI coding agents. Workspaces are defined with Terraform, connected through a secure Wireguard® tunnel, and automatically shut down when not used. Coder Agents runs a native AI coding agent whose loop executes in the control plane on your infrastructure, with no API keys in workspaces.
- Define cloud development environments in Terraform
- EC2 VMs, Kubernetes Pods, Docker Containers, etc.
- Automatically shutdown idle resources to save on costs
- Onboard developers in seconds instead of days
- Delegate coding work to AI agents on your infrastructure
- Bring any model (Anthropic, OpenAI, Google, Bedrock, self-hosted)
- No LLM credentials in workspaces, user identity on every action
- Centralized model governance, cost tracking, and audit logging
Quickstart
The most convenient way to try Coder is to install it on your local machine and experiment with provisioning cloud development environments using Docker (works on Linux, macOS, and Windows).
# First, install Coder
curl -L https://coder.com/install.sh | sh
# Start the Coder server (caches data in ~/.cache/coder)
coder server
# Navigate to http://localhost:3000 to create your initial user,
# create a Docker template and provision a workspace
Install
The easiest way to install Coder is to use the
install script for Linux
and macOS. For Windows, use the latest ..._installer.exe file from GitHub
Releases.
curl -L https://coder.com/install.sh | sh
You can run the install script with --dry-run to see the commands that will be used to install without executing them. Run the install script with --help for additional flags.
See install for additional methods.
Once installed, you can start a production deployment with a single command:
# Automatically sets up an external access URL on *.try.coder.app
coder server
# Requires a PostgreSQL instance (version 13 or higher) and external access URL
coder server --postgres-url <url> --access-url <url>
Use coder --help to get a list of flags and environment variables. See the install guides for a complete tutorial.
