* security: require API-key auth on all Explorer API routes (GHSA-j4mq-hprp-987v)
Every Explorer route (bulk import/export, delete, LLM-backed ontology
generation, SPARQL, etc.) was mounted with no authentication, and both
server entrypoints bind 0.0.0.0 by default. Anyone reaching the port got
full read/write/delete on the graph.
- Add require_auth dependency (explorer/dependencies.py): checks
X-API-Key against SEMANTICA_API_KEY, fails closed with 503 if
unconfigured (not silently anonymous), 401 on wrong/missing key.
SEMANTICA_ALLOW_ANONYMOUS=true opts out explicitly for local dev.
- Wire dependencies=[Depends(require_auth)] into all 11 API routers in
both explorer/app.py and server.py. /health, /api/info, static assets,
and the SPA catch-all stay public.
- /ws/graph-updates handshake now checks the same key via header or
?api_key= query param (browsers can't set custom WS headers) before
accepting the connection.
- Default bind changed from 0.0.0.0 to 127.0.0.1 in server.py's main()
and cli.py's `server start`; the CLI warns if a non-loopback host is
passed explicitly without a key configured.
- Startup logging reports the resolved auth mode in both app factories.
- Document/generate SEMANTICA_API_KEY in the deploy recipes that expose
a public endpoint by default: docker-compose, Railway, Fly, Render.
Added tests/explorer/test_explorer_auth.py covering fail-closed default,
wrong/missing/correct key, anonymous opt-in, public-route exemptions, and
the WS handshake. Added tests/explorer/conftest.py defaulting the
pre-existing ~200 explorer tests to SEMANTICA_ALLOW_ANONYMOUS=true so
they keep exercising route logic without needing a key.

- GCP: remove --allow-unauthenticated, restrict ingress to
internal-and-cloud-load-balancing, replace wildcard ALLOWED_ORIGINS=*
with a substitution variable (_ALLOWED_ORIGINS) so operators supply a
real URL at deploy time; same fix in cloudrun-service.yaml
- Fly.io: replace hardcoded FALKORDB_HOST=localhost with the correct
.internal private-network hostname pattern; update README accordingly
- docker-compose.dev.yml: add missing top-level networks: block so the
frontend service can join the semantica network without --file layering
- K8s/Helm: add readOnlyRootFilesystem: true + runAsUser: 1000 to
container securityContext; mount an emptyDir /tmp so uvicorn can write
temp files
- app.py: fix _read_explorer_settings() or-chain, use in os.environ
checks so an explicit ALLOWED_ORIGINS="" produces an empty allow-list
instead of silently falling through to localhost defaults; remove dead
app.state.falkordb_host/port attributes
- docs: update four locations that still documented {"status":"healthy"}
to reflect the new {"status":"ok"} health response
- tests: update test assertion to read falkordb settings from
app.state.explorer_settings instead of removed top-level attributes
