# SYSTEMREQUIREMENTSSPECIFICATION
StellaOps · selfhosted supplychainsecurity platform
> **Audience** core maintainers and external contributors who need an
> authoritative checklist of *what* the software must do (functional
> requirements) and *how well* it must do it (nonfunctional
> requirements). Implementation details belong in Module Specs
> or ADRs—**not here**.

## 1·Purpose & Scope
This SRS defines everything the **v0.8beta** release of _StellaOps_ must do, **including the new Freetier quota of 333 SBOM scans per token per UTC day**.
Scope includes core platform, CLI, UI, quota layer, and plugin host; commercial or closedsource extensions are explicitly outofscope.

## 5·Functional Requirements (FR)

### 5.2 Internal Docker Repository
| Ref | Requirement |
|-----|-------------|
| **FRREPO1** | Platform SHALL include **StellaOps.Registry** exposing Docker Registry v2 API (ports 5000/443). |
| **FRREPO2** | Registry SHALL allow anonymous, *readonly* pulls for at least three images:<br>`stella/sbombuilder`<br>`stella/santech`<br>`stella/zastava`. |
| **FRREPO3** | Registry MAY enable optional basicauth without code changes. |
### 5.3 SBOM Generation & Handling
| Ref | Requirement |
|-----|-------------|
| **FRSBOM1** | SBOM builder SHALL produce TrivyJSON **and** at least one additional format: SPDXJSON and CycloneDXJSON. |
| **FRSBOM2** | For every generated SBOM, builder SHALL create a sidecar file `<image>.sbom.type` containing the format identifier. |
| **FRSBOM3** | SanTech Agent SHALL read the `.sbom.type` file and include `sbomType` parameter when uploading. |
| **FRSBOM4** | Backend SHALL autodetect SBOM type when parameter is missing. |
| **FRSBOM5** | UI Settings SHALL expose a dropdown to select default SBOM format (systemwide fallback). |
#### 5.3.1 Delta SBOM (layer reuse)
| Ref | Requirement |
|-----|-------------|
| **FRDELTA1** | Builder SHALL compute SHA256 digests of each image layer and POST array to `/layers/missing`; response time ≤20ms (P95). |
| **FRDELTA2** | Builder SHALL generate SBOM **only** for layers returned as “missing”. |
| **FRDELTA3** | Endtoend warm scan time (image differing by ≤2 layers) SHALL be ≤1s (P95). |
### 5.4 Policy as Code (Muting & Expiration)
| Ref | Requirement |
|-----|-------------|
| **FRPOLICY1** | Backend SHALL store policies as YAML by default, convertible to Rego for advanced usecases. |
| **FRPOLICY2** | Each policy change SHALL create an immutable history record (timestamp, actor, diff). |
| **FRPOLICY3** | REST endpoints `/policy/import`, `/policy/export`, `/policy/validate` SHALL accept YAML or Rego payloads. |
| **FRPOLICY4** | WebUI Policies tab SHALL provide Monaco editor with linting for YAML and Rego. |
| **FRPOLICY5** | **StellaOps.MutePolicies** module SHALL expose CLI `stella policies apply --file scanpolicy.yaml`. |
### 5.5 SLSA Attestations & Rekor (TODO >6mo)
| Ref | Requirement |
|-----|-------------|
| **FRSLSA1** | **TODO** Generate provenance in SLSAProvenance v0.2 for each SBOM. |
| **FRREKOR1** | **TODO** Sign SBOM hashes and upload to local Rekor mirror; verify during scan. |
### 5.6 CLI & API Interface
| Ref | Requirement |

| **FRCLI1** | CLI `stella scan` SHALL accept `--sbom-type {trivy,spdx,cyclonedx,auto}`. |
| **FRAPI1** | API `/scan` SHALL accept `sbomType` query/body field (optional). |
| **FRAPI2** | API `/layers/missing` SHALL accept JSON array of digests and return JSON array of missing digests. |

| **NFRSEC1** | Security | All interservice traffic shall use TLS or localhost sockets. |
| **NFRCOMP1** | Compatibility | Platform shall run on x8664 Linux kernel ≥5.10; Windows agents (TODO>6mo) must support Server 2019+. |
| **NFRI18N1** | Internationalisation | UI must support RU and EN locale toggles. |
| **NFROBS1** | Observability | Export Prometheus metrics for scan duration, queue length, policy eval duration. |
---
##7Acceptance Criteria <a id="7-acceptance-criteria"></a>
1. Issue 333 `/scan` calls; 334th returns **HTTP429** and `RetryAfter`.
2. Redis failure during test → API returns **0 remaining** & warns in logs.
3. UI banner activates at 133 remaining; clears next UTC midnight.

## 8·System Interfaces
### 8.1 External APIs
*(This is the complete original table, plus new `/quota` row.)*
| Path | Method | Auth | Quota | Description |
|------|--------|------|-------|-------------|
| `/scan` | POST | Bearer | ✅ | Submit SBOM or `imageRef` for scanning. |
| `/quota` | GET | Bearer | ❌ | Return remaining quota for current token. |
| `/policy/rules` | GET/PUT | Bearer+RBAC | ❌ | CRUD YAML or Rego policies. |
| `/plugins` | POST/GET | Bearer+Admin | ❌ | Upload or list plugins. |
```bash
GET /quota
Authorization: Bearer <token>
200 OK
{
"limit": 333,
"remaining": 121,
"resetsAt": "2025-07-14T23:59:59Z"
}
```
## 9 ·Assumptions & Constraints
* Hardware reference: 8vCPU, 8GB RAM, NVMe SSD.
* MongoDB and Redis run colocated unless horizontal scaling enabled.
* All docker images tagged `latest` are immutable (CI process locks digests).
* Rego evaluation runs in embedded OPA Golibrary (no external binary).
---
## 10·Future Work (Beyond 12Months)
* Rekor transparency log crosscluster replication.
* AIassisted falsepositive triage plugin.
* Clusterwide injection for live runtime scanning.
