Rank 8 of the 2026-05-03 deep-research deliverable, commit 1 of 5
(cowork/rank-8-intermediate-ca-hierarchy-prompt.md). Closes the multi-
level CA hierarchy gap for FedRAMP boundary-CA, financial-services
policy-CA, and OT network-CA deployments where regulator-mandated
certificate-policy separation requires multiple layers (root → policy
→ issuing).
This commit lands ONLY the foundation — schema, types, repository
interface, postgres implementation. No service / connector / handler
wiring yet. The 5-commit chain is bisectable: this commit can ship
with no operator-visible behavior change until commits 2-5 wire the
service layer + the local-connector tree-mode + admin API + GUI tree
view + operator runbook. The default value for issuers.hierarchy_mode
is 'single' so every existing operator's behavior is byte-identical
post-migration.
Existing scaffolding REUSED (not redefined):
- internal/crypto/signer.Driver seam — every IntermediateCA carries
a key_driver_id pointing at the signer.Driver instance that owns
its private key. Defense in depth: NEVER persist key bytes in a
row. FileDriver is the production default; future PKCS11Driver /
CloudKMSDriver close the disk-exposure leg via the same seam.
- issuers.id row — the new intermediate_cas FK references it.
Files added:
internal/domain/intermediate_ca.go — IntermediateCA type,
IntermediateCAState
closed enum (active /
retiring / retired),
IsValidIntermediateCAState
+ IsTerminal helpers,
NameConstraint struct
(RFC 5280 §4.2.1.10
permitted+excluded
subtree subset
semantics for service-
layer enforcement),
HierarchyModeSingle /
HierarchyModeTree
constants.
internal/repository/postgres/intermediate_ca.go — IntermediateCARepository
impl: Create (ica-<slug>
ID gen, JSONB +
nullable-column round-
trip, lib/pq 23505 →
ErrAlreadyExists),
Get, ListByIssuer,
ListChildren,
UpdateState,
GetActiveRoot,
WalkAncestry (recursive
CTE — single SQL
round-trip, O(depth)
rows, leaf-first
ordering).
migrations/000028_intermediate_ca_hierarchy.{up,down}.sql
— idempotent schema.
issuers.hierarchy_mode
VARCHAR(20) DEFAULT
'single'. New
intermediate_cas table
with FKs to
issuers / self
(parent_ca_id) +
CHECK constraints
(closed-enum state,
not_after >
not_before, no self-
parent) + 6 indexes
(partial-unique
active root per
issuer, partial-
unique name per
issuer, owning
issuer, parent,
state, expiring).
Files modified:
internal/domain/connector.go — adds Issuer.HierarchyMode field
with full doc comment + JSON tag.
Empty string ≡ single mode for
back-compat.
internal/repository/interfaces.go — adds IntermediateCARepository
interface (7 methods).
Verified locally:
gofmt: clean.

- local connector rewrite + byte-equivalence pin

bearing backwards-compat refusal-to-ship test).
