A module that logs people in through Keycloak had to be given a client by
hand, with its secret copied into the consumer's environment. As a provision
the mesh derives the client id (the consumer's identity, mesh_<node>_<module>)
and mints its secret, and delivers both ends: keycloak creates exactly that
confidential client, the consumer names it through ${bound:oidc-client:as}.
The consumer says where its browser comes back to (`callback`) and which
endpoint it is reached on (`label`/`endpoint`), so the redirect is built from
the same names the mesh composes for its route. keycloak serves the issuer and
the endpoint paths under it; the issuer is the one value an assignment sets,
and the realm is read out of it, so consumer and client cannot disagree.
Only what the mesh made is touched: its clients carry mesh.provisioned=true;
a client of the same id without the mark is refused, never adopted, updated
or deleted. The runtime now gets the admin password as a file, which its
tools also needed and never had.
Nineteen modules gain a broker-bound runtime container that serves the module's
tools under its own scoped account: bazarr, gitea, grafana, home-assistant,
icecast, influxdb, jackett, keycloak, mailu, nextcloud, nodered, nzbget, ombi,
photos, portainer, qbittorrent, searxng, tautulli, verdaccio.
Config is the assignment's, not the manifest's (ADR 0051): each client's fromEnv
overlays a settings-merged config file (MESH_<M>_CONFIG_FILE) over its env
fallbacks, so URL and credentials come from `settings set`, with the URL defaulting
to the server on the node. nextcloud and mailu also mount the docker socket for
their exec-based tools.
Proven in the mesh-lab: assigned-grafana green — settings deliver the URL and token,
the runtime reads the merged config and serves grafana's tools under the scoped
account, with nothing in the manifest. Two gaps this surfaced are filed as hq
issues 008 (a provider runtime's seal key) and 009 (a settings change does not
restart a container runtime).

Identity provider. 22 admin tools (realms, users, clients + secrets, groups,
roles) over the admin API, moved out of the shared sdk. Emits user created/
deleted, password reset, client/group/role created — from the write tools
themselves, since Keycloak's value is the changes it makes, not pollable
state. Consumes nothing: it is upstream of everything that authenticates
against it. Typechecks; manifest parses.
