1 # mnw-cli — Code Review
2
3 **Date:** 2026-04-12
4 **Version:** 0.1.0 (pre-deployment)
5 **Reviewer:** Claude (Opus 4.6)
6 **Scope:** Full codebase review — all Rust source, deploy config, tests, docs
7
8 ## Summary
9
10 mnw-cli is an SSH-first CLI server (~6,870 LOC Rust, ~8,600 total) for the MNW creator platform. SSH-based auth eliminates API key management. Users connect via standard SSH clients for an interactive TUI, non-interactive commands, SFTP file uploads, or git operations. Built on russh + ratatui + reqwest. 46 unit tests, 0 clippy warnings.
11
12 **Overall: A** — clean architecture, strong security posture. All original findings resolved: UTF-8 panic fixed, price parsing fixed, 18 clippy warnings fixed, tui/mod.rs split, 36 tests added, exit status added, confirmation dialogs for all destructive operations.

16 ## Findings
17
18 ### [MEDIUM] `tui/mod.rs` at 2,211 lines — well over 500-line guideline
19
20 This file contains the event loop, all 9 screen input handlers, 9 data loaders, the multi-step publish flow, and utility functions. All branching logic. Should be split into at minimum:
21 - `tui/input.rs` — screen-specific input handlers (~800 lines)
22 - `tui/loading.rs` — data loading functions (~300 lines)
23 - `tui/publish.rs` — the publish flow (~100 lines)
24
25 ### [MEDIUM] `truncate()` in commands.rs panics on multi-byte UTF-8
26
27 ```rust
28 fn truncate(s: &str, max_len: usize) -> &str {
29 if s.len() <= max_len { s } else { &s[..max_len] }
30 }
31 ```
32
33 Slicing at a byte offset panics if `max_len` falls within a multi-byte character. Any project/blog title with accented letters, CJK, or emoji could trigger this. Fix: use `s.floor_char_boundary(max_len)` (stable since Rust 1.82).
34
35 ### [MEDIUM] 18 clippy warnings
36
37 Includes: collapsible if-statements (7), `&PathBuf` instead of `&Path` (2), useless `format!` (1), useless `.into()` (1), too many function arguments (2), clamp-like pattern (1), trim-before-split_whitespace (1), unused struct fields (2). Should be cleaned up before deployment.
38
39 ### [MEDIUM] `parse_price("5.5")` returns 505 cents ($5.05), not 550 ($5.50)
40
41 The function takes at most 2 chars from the cents portion: `cents.get(..2)` on `"5"` yields `5`, so `5 * 100 + 5 = 505`. A user typing "5.5" almost certainly means $5.50. Fix: pad single-digit cents with a trailing zero.
42
43 ### [LOW] `russh` 0.58.1 was yanked
44
45 Resolved by `cargo update` downgrading to 0.58.0. Version 0.60.0 is available but is a breaking change. Remaining advisories (rsa, rand) are transitive with no direct fix.
46
47 ### [LOW] No exit status on non-interactive commands
48
49 `exec_request` in handler.rs spawns command execution but never sends `exit_status_request` to the SSH channel. SSH clients can't distinguish success from failure. The git proxy path correctly sends exit status, but the command path does not.
50
51 ### [LOW] No confirmation for destructive operations
52
53 Delete item, delete blog post, delete promo code, and revoke license key all execute immediately on a single keypress (`d` or `x`). No confirmation dialog. One accidental keypress permanently deletes.
54
55 ### [LOW] `api.rs` at 897 lines
56
57 Contains 18 data types and 23 API methods. The types (structs + enums) are flat data definitions (~400 lines, exempt from the 500-line rule), so the branching logic is within limits. But if more endpoints are added, consider splitting types into `api/types.rs`.
58
59 ### [LOW] Missing unit tests for pure functions
60
61 `staging.rs` has 6 testable pure functions (`sanitize_filename`, `classify_extension`, `derive_title`, `is_allowed_extension`, `format_bytes`, `cleanup_stale` logic). `format.rs` has 5 pure formatters. `commands.rs` has `truncate` and price parsing. None have tests. The git proxy has 10 tests — the same pattern should be applied to these modules.
62
63 ### [INFO] `i64` to `u64` casts in render code
64
65 `storage_used_bytes as u64` and `max_storage_bytes as u64` in upload.rs, settings.rs, item.rs, and analytics.rs. If the server returns negative values (bug), these wrap silently. Extremely unlikely but could use `.try_into().unwrap_or(0)`.
66
67 ### [INFO] Non-interactive promo creation only supports percentage discounts
68
69 Both CLI (`promo create CODE PCT`) and TUI always send `"percentage"` discount type. The API supports fixed-amount discounts but neither interface exposes it. Minor — percentage is the common case.

73 ## Strengths
74
75 - **SSH-first auth is elegant.** Eliminates API key management entirely. Users authenticate with their existing SSH keys. Public key fingerprint looked up against MNW server.
76 - **Clean per-connection isolation.** No shared mutable state between connections. Each connection gets its own `MnwHandler` with independent API client, staging handle, and TUI state.
77 - **SFTP implementation is thorough.** Tier checking, extension validation, per-user quota enforcement (checked on both `open` and `write`), path traversal prevention, virtual filesystem abstraction.
78 - **Git proxy is well-tested.** 10 unit tests covering command parsing and path traversal prevention. Subprocess management with proper stdin/stdout/stderr piping.
79 - **Security hardening.** systemd service has ProtectSystem=strict, PrivateTmp, NoNewPrivileges, etc. Path traversal blocked in both SFTP and git. Suspended users rejected at auth.
80 - **Prior audit findings all resolved.** The 5 issues from cleanup.md (memory leak, silent errors, silent deletions) are all fixed in the current code.
81 - **Good documentation.** README, architecture.md, todo.md, and cleanup.md all present and current.
