Consolidate 22 sibling repos into layered organism structure
Place useful parts of the surrounding repos into sica-fondt by layer, per the
body model (Ada = membrane; brain/endocrine/capabilities/knowledge non-Ada):

- brain/        LLM reasoning + providers (dapr, hermes, MoMoA)
- capabilities/ REPRAG sidecars: hermes tools/skills, dapr tools, parallel
                dispatch, A51 channels, and the OSINT cluster
- knowledge/    LORAG corpus: 754 cyber-skills, agency personas, secure-coding,
                MITRE ATT&CK data
- reference/    defensive threat-reference (C3, shhbruh doc) + AdaYaml parser

License handling: AGPL sources (worldosint, advanced_evolution, mercury,
Reticulum) and GPL DeTTECT are SPEC-only clean-room/port descriptions — no
copyleft code copied. MIT/Apache/data parts copied as working trees.

Safety: shhbruh escape/persistence material and C3 covert-C2 kept as reference
only, not wired into the running organism. See CONSOLIDATION.md.

API Reference: Testing for Broken Access Control

requests Library

Authentication Patterns

# Bearer token authentication
headers = {"Authorization": "Bearer <token>", "Content-Type": "application/json"}

# Cookie-based authentication
cookies = {"session": "session_value"}

# Multiple methods
resp = requests.request("DELETE", url, headers=headers)

Test Categories

Vertical Privilege Escalation

Test admin endpoints with regular user credentials:

for endpoint in admin_endpoints:
    resp = requests.get(url, headers=user_headers)
    # 200 = VULNERABLE, 403 = properly restricted

Horizontal Privilege Escalation (IDOR)

Access other users' resources:

# Replace {id} with other user's ID
resp = requests.get(f"/api/users/{other_id}/profile", headers=user_headers)

HTTP Method Override

override_headers = ["X-HTTP-Method-Override", "X-Method-Override", "X-HTTP-Method"]

Mass Assignment Fields

Field Description
role User role (admin, user)
is_admin Boolean admin flag
permissions Permission array
access_level Numeric access level
user_type User type classification

Response Status Interpretation

Status Meaning
200/201 Access granted (potential vulnerability if unexpected)
401 Not authenticated
403 Authenticated but not authorized (correct behavior)
404 Resource not found (may hide from unauthorized users)
405 Method not allowed
