Grant Whitmer 18ea9a4686 auth: G3.2 hub JWKS verifier — humans can sign in to the plane (SSO #14)
The human path refused every token in production (503
human_signin_not_ready) because no verifier existed. api/app/hub_jwt.py
verifies hub access tokens against account.windyword.ai's JWKS:

- RS256 only (closes alg:none and HS256-with-public-key confusion)
- iss must be "windy-identity" — what hub ACCESS tokens carry (observed
  live); id_tokens (discovery-URL issuer) are not accepted as bearers
- aud optional today, must name Windy Git when present; hub_require_aud
  flips it mandatory once the hub emits it. PyJWT's own aud check is off
  on purpose: it rejects ANY aud-bearing token when no audience is given.
- type must be human; identity = windy_identity_id, never sub (per-row id)
- production verifies even if require_verified_jwt is off

11 behavioral tests sign real RS256 tokens with a local key.

"""Human token verification (G3.2) — hub access tokens from account.windyword.ai.
Until this existed the human path refused every token in production (503
`human_signin_not_ready`), because reading an unverified JWT's claims is an
authentication bypass, not a shortcut. This module is what lets it say yes.
The token it accepts is the hub's ACCESS token, as observed live 2026-09-23:
header {alg: RS256, typ: JWT, kid: <published at /.well-known/jwks.json>}
claims iss = "windy-identity" ← NOT the discovery doc's issuer URL
type = "human", exp - iat = 900 s
sub = per-row user id ← NOT the cross-product identity
windy_identity_id = the Windy Account UUID (what Gitea's OIDC links on)
no `aud` yet
What it refuses, by construction:
* **Anything but RS256.** One algorithm, never a list. Closes `alg: none` and
HS256-with-the-public-key confusion.
* **An unknown `kid`**, a wrong issuer, an expired token — library-checked.
* **An id_token used as a bearer.** id_tokens carry iss = the discovery URL and
aud = some relying party; they prove a login happened to *someone else's*
client, not that this caller may act here.
* **A non-human `type`.** An agent's authority comes from its EPT and a live
Eternitas lookup, never from a hub token dressed as a person.
* **A token with no `windy_identity_id`.** `sub` is a different namespace (the
per-row user id); falling back to it would silently mint identities that
match nothing Gitea knows.
`aud` (SSO matrix, lane 8c): the hub will start emitting it once every
consumer is ready. Today it is optional; when present it MUST name Windy Git.
`hub_require_aud=True` makes it mandatory — flip it once the hub emits it.
