Authorization decisions default to deny.

Not installing a policy engine causes all requests to be denied.

We must must have "reasonable defaults" and opinions. Its a key part of the project.

Is this our reasonable default? Or should we give the user a default policy engine?

- changes to the policy do not require a recompilation of auraed.
- policy can be centralized for multiple auraed.

We will need to bake both authn and authz into our standard library, or at the very least call it out of scope.

  • Do we have an authn subsystem? Or is this "transparent" based on the aurae.toml?
  • Do we have an authz subsystem? Or is this "transparent" based on the aurae.toml?

More on subsystems: https://github.com/aurae-runtime/api/tree/main/spec#aurae-api-specification
