Project context
A fictional case-management application filters most requests correctly, but imports and background commands can connect a case to another organization's project or assignee.
Setup prerequisites
- Create two synthetic organizations with overlapping display names.
- Use repository-level authorization and migration-backed constraints.
Preceding work
Complete these dependencies, or supply their agreed outputs before taking this ticket.
- ATENANT-101 · Map tenant ownership for case-management entities
- ATENANT-102 · Add composite uniqueness for tenant-owned relationship targets
- ATENANT-103 · Reject null organization scope in protected repository methods
- ATENANT-104 · Enforce same-organization case-to-project references with a foreign key
- ATENANT-105 · Keep case-comment inserts scoped during concurrent parent changes
Acceptance criteria
- Validate each relationship under the requested organization.
- Report row coordinates with nondisclosing reason codes.
- Follow an explicit all-or-nothing import contract.
Implementation constraints
- Use a synthetic file containing one cross-tenant project reference.
Verification to include
- Import a valid multi-row file.
- Place an invalid reference late in the file and verify zero case rows commit.
Deliverables
- Scoped bulk importer and late-row regression
Rollout and recovery
Canary small synthetic imports; retain rejected files under bounded restricted storage.
Value of the work
For the engineer: Practice tenant-aware keys, foreign keys and direct-write denial tests.
For the team: Review defense in depth for data isolation across ordinary and privileged writers.
Evidence boundaries
Outcome Evidence: Tests, patches, and runbooks are requested deliverables. They become Outcome Evidence only through a qualified Mission and immutable Evidence IDs.
Ownership Evidence: Independent adaptation must be observed under a declared verification policy and cite immutable Evidence IDs. Completing a planning ticket establishes no Ownership Evidence.
