Conversation
New identity/authkit page: the hosted-page doctrine (owner correction 2026-07-09), why hosted (required MFA handled natively + the shared environment session that gives continuous sign-in across apps), the per-app AuthKit application layout with client table, the Next.js integration pattern from mukoko-news (/sign-in funnel, /auth/login initiate-login endpoint as the only getSignInUrl call site, hardened callback, server-side gates), the getSignInUrl cookie-write pitfall, the per-app configuration checklist (including the wrong-client-id misconfig that broke production), the FastAPI backend variant, and the org-scoped authorization note. Identity overview updated to link it; sidebar entry added. Co-Authored-By: Claude Fable 5 <noreply@anthropic.com> Claude-Session: https://claude.ai/code/session_0113jJUqEQnhpqFB3PTh2RfA

Why
The identity section was an explicit stub. The recent auth work in
nyuchi/mukoko-news(#146/#147 — hosted AuthKit switch, MFA fix, cross-app SSO) settled the sign-in doctrine and surfaced hard-won operational lessons worth writing down before they're forgotten. Branch rebuilt from the latestmain(on top of the Kweli guides and CLAUDE.md added by other sessions).What changed
identity/authkit.mdx("Hosted sign-in (AuthKit)"):MFA = Required(hosted handles enrolment + challenge natively), and the shared environment-level session is what gives continuous sign-in across every Nyuchi/Mukoko app.mukoko-newsreference implementation:/sign-infunnel with no-loop error card,/auth/logininitiate-login endpoint as the onlygetSignInUrl()call site, hardened/auth/callback, server-side gates.getSignInUrl()cookie-write pitfall (throws during page render) as a tip box.mukoko-platformplatform-JWT flow), and the org-scoped authorization note.identity/overview.mdx: new "Landed" section linking the page; ticked the hosted-sign-in items off the TODO list; stub caution retained for the rest.astro.config.mjs: sidebar entry added (the sidebar is the source of truth for new pages).Testing
