feat(core): add generic permission map resolver with core utils and types gating infra

[grandmaester]

Summary

Foundation for permission-based UI gating: a generic, module-agnostic permission resolver plus the Member Management permission declarations that build on it.

This is PR 1 of 2 for the permission infrastructure. Follow-up: (2) PermissionProvider context, usePermissions hook and PermissionDeniedTooltip.

Why

Components currently gate mutations with a coarse binary readOnly prop. The MyOrganization API exposes granular per-resource permissions, so we're moving to fine-grained checks.

Two design goals shaped this revision:

1. Module-agnostic. Gating is not a My Organization concern — My Account and MFA step-up will need the same machinery, so the permissions module moved out from under my-organization/ to services/permissions/.
2. No repeated logic per module. Onboarding a new module should be a declaration, not another copy of the same hasPermission + readOnly wiring. Each module contributes a data-only permission map and touches no shared code.

What

packages/core

services/permissions/ (moved up from services/my-organization/permissions/)

• permission-map.ts — createPermissionResolver(spec) builds a resolver that turns granted scopes into named boolean flags. An array rule requires every scope; { any: [...] } requires at least one. readOnly (suppresses everything) and allowAll (used when no permission source is mounted) are applied centrally, so no call site repeats them. Return type is inferred from the spec, so a typo in a flag name is a compile error.
• permission-utils.ts — hasPermission, hasAnyPermission, hasAllPermissions (unchanged).
• permission-types.ts — trimmed to just OauthScope, the SDK-sourced union that keeps every scope string type-checked.

export const getMemberManagementPermissions = createPermissionResolver({
  canInvite: ['create:my_org:member_invitations'],
  canAssignRole: ['create:my_org:member_roles'],
  canRemoveRole: ['delete:my_org:member_roles'],
  canRemoveFromOrganization: ['delete:my_org:memberships'],
  canRevokeInvitation: ['delete:my_org:member_invitations'],
  // Resend revokes then recreates, so it needs both scopes.
  canResendInvitation: ['delete:my_org:member_invitations', 'create:my_org:member_invitations'],
  canShowMemberMenu: { any: ['create:my_org:member_roles', 'delete:my_org:memberships'] },
  canShowInvitationMenu: { any: ['delete:my_org:member_invitations'] },
} as const);

📝 Walkthrough

Walkthrough

Adds typed permission utilities and a permission resolver to the core package, exports them publicly, and adds coverage for scope rules and resolver options. Updates the React submenu content component to use the matching Radix prop type.

Changes

Permission API

Layer / File(s)	Summary
Permission contracts and resolver packages/core/src/services/permissions/permission-types.ts, packages/core/src/services/permissions/permission-map.ts, packages/core/src/index.ts, packages/core/src/services/permissions/__tests__/permission-map.test.ts	Defines OAuth scope aliases, typed permission specifications, resolver options, and boolean permission maps. The resolver applies readOnly, allowAll, any, and all-scope rules. Core exports and resolver tests are included.
Permission utility checks packages/core/src/services/permissions/permission-utils.ts, packages/core/src/services/permissions/__tests__/permission-utils.test.ts	Adds helpers for any-scope and all-scope checks. Empty requirement lists return true. Tests cover matching and non-matching scopes.

Submenu prop typing

Layer / File(s)	Summary
Submenu content props packages/react/src/components/ui/dropdown-menu.tsx	Updates DropdownMenuSubContent to accept props from Radix SubContent instead of generic Content.

Estimated code review effort: 3 (Moderate) | ~20 minutes

Merge Risk: 🟡 Moderate · up to 89189

This PR introduces a shared permission resolver, but malformed runtime inputs could cause failures and an invalid allowAll value could grant permissions unexpectedly. Merge should wait for input validation or explicit owner acceptance of this bounded authorization risk.

Move the public props contract into the component types directory.

DropdownMenuSubContent declares its public props type inline. Define a named DropdownMenuSubContentProps interface under the appropriate types/ directory and use it here. Preserve the React.ComponentProps<typeof DropdownMenuPrimitive.SubContent> contract.

As per coding guidelines: Define a proper TypeScript props interface for every component, with the interface maintained under the appropriate types/ directory.

Align permission API documentation with the public export surface.

The core entry point exports these APIs publicly, but all three source modules mark them as @internal. This hides intended consumer APIs in generated documentation.

• packages/core/src/index.ts#L134-L137: Keep only intended public permission APIs in the root export surface.
• packages/core/src/services/permissions/permission-types.ts#L1-L9: Remove @internal for exported public types and document OauthScope.
• packages/core/src/services/permissions/permission-map.ts#L1-L62: Remove @internal for public resolver types and createPermissionResolver. Add public type documentation.
• packages/core/src/services/permissions/permission-utils.ts#L1-L42: Remove @internal for public utility functions and retain complete parameter and return documentation.

As per coding guidelines, “Document public APIs with JSDoc; use @module, @internal, @param, and @returns tags where applicable.”
