* security: authenticate the local control server with a per-session token (CWE-306) The optional `--control PORT` server listens on loopback TCP and dispatched any JSON request without authenticating the peer. Loopback TCP does not distinguish operating-system users, so another local account could connect and drive the desktop user's command and file authority (for example reading files through native Lisp, or create/truncate writes). Authenticate the peer with an unguessable per-session token: - New `cadcraft_mcp::control_token` module: `issue(port)` generates a 256-bit token and writes it to `cadcraft-control-<port>.token` in the per-user runtime directory with owner-only permissions (0600 on Unix; per-user LOCALAPPDATA on Windows). `read(port)` reads it; `matches` compares in constant time. - The control server issues the token at startup and requires every request to carry a matching `token` field; requests without one get an `unauthorized` reply and the connection is closed before dispatch. - The MCP bridge (`Remote`) reads the token from the owner-only file — which needs the desktop user's own filesystem access — and sends it on every request, so the bridge keeps working unchanged for the legitimate user. A different local user cannot read the token and cannot authenticate. Updates `docs/control-protocol.md`. New tests cover token issue/read/compare, file permissions, and that the server refuses unauthenticated requests while accepting authenticated ones. Addresses finding row 48. * fix: recover control authentication across server restarts --------- Co-authored-by: skylartaylor <26588250+skylartaylor@users.noreply.github.com>
