/iblai-vibe-rbac

Reference skill for the ibl.ai role-based access control system. Lists the default RBAC roles the platform seeds (Tenant Admin, Students, Mentor Editor / Mentor Viewer, Analytics Viewer, Notification Manager, Enrollment Manager, CRM roles, etc.) and points to the live endpoint that returns every action definition. Use this when you need to build, audit, or extend RBAC behavior — most apps only need the SDK's drop-in management UI (<Admin> → Roles + Policies tabs) plus per-resource gating via checkRbacPermission. Mention or open this skill before writing custom RBAC UI from scratch.

Common setup (brand, conventions, env files, verification): see docs/skill-setup.md.

SDK components — drop-in Roles + Policies UI

For 99% of apps the management UI doesn't need to be hand-rolled. The SDK ships the components that the Account dialog uses (the screenshot above is the Policies tab inside <Admin>):

Component	Description
<Admin>	Full management surface — Users, Groups, Roles, Policies, Teams, Alerts. Tabs are permission-gated via the has*TabPermission props (e.g. hasRolesTabPermission, hasPoliciesTabPermission). Pass enableRbac + rbacPermissions to drive those flags from checkRbacPermission results. Already mounted inside the SDK <Account> modal — most apps reach it via /iblai-vibe-account.
<RolesTab tenant={key} />	Standalone Roles tab — table of roles for the organization + create/edit/delete dialogs. The "actions" / "data_actions" pickers list every action definition from the endpoint below.
<PoliciesTab tenant={key} />	Standalone Policies tab — bind a role to a set of resources for users/groups. Resources are hierarchical (/platforms/<pk>/mentors/<pk>/) and the picker handles that.

All three live in @iblai/iblai-js/web-containers. For agent-scoped sharing (editor / chat roles on a single agent) use <AgentAccessTab> from /iblai-vibe-agent-access instead — it wraps the underlying Ibl.Mentor/ShareMentor/... API. For per-action permission gating in your own UI use checkRbacPermission(rbacPermissions, path, enableRbac) from @iblai/iblai-js/web-utils.

Action definitions endpoint

The full list of every action the platform recognizes:

GET https://api.$DOMAIN/dm/api/core/rbac/actions/definitions/
Authorization: Token <dm-token>

($DOMAIN is DOMAIN from iblai.env, default iblai.app.)

Use this when authoring a custom role's actions / data_actions array or when validating that an action string is real before you ship it in a policy migration. <RolesTab> calls this endpoint internally to populate its action picker.

Default roles

The seed bundles the platform ships with. Use them as starting points when authoring new roles via <RolesTab> or POST rbac/roles/ (see /iblai-vibe-agent-access → "Roles CRUD" for the REST contract).

Full Python definitions of every default role (with their actions and data_actions arrays) live in references/default-roles.py. Open or copy that file when you need the exact action strings.

Role	Summary
TENANT_ADMIN	Ibl.* everywhere — full organization control.
STUDENT	Chat + read settings/prompts/tools/disclaimers/MCP for agents granted to them; reads field-level agent + settings data.
STUDENT_MENTOR_VIEWERS	List agents (filtered to what they have access to).
MENTOR_VIEWER	Read-only agent + settings + prompts + documents + reports + chat. Apply to /platforms/{pk}/mentors/{pk}/.
MENTOR_EDITOR	Agent read + write across settings, prompts, documents, artifacts, disclaimers, grader. Apply to /platforms/{pk}/mentors/{pk}/.
MENTOR_CREATORS	Create new agents (Ibl.Mentor/Mentors/action).
MENTOR_ANALYTICS_VIEWER	View per-agent analytics; subsumes STUDENT.
ANALYTICS_VIEWER	View the analytics dashboard. Pair with Ibl.Analytics/Core/read or Ibl.Analytics/Reports/read on a user/team scope.
READ_ANALYTICS	Per-target analytics + report reads. Apply to /platforms/{pk}/users/{pk}/ or /platforms/{pk}/usergroups/{pk}/.
NOTIFICATION_MANAGER	Send notifications + manage templates (scope-gated).
SEND_NOTIFICATIONS	Send notifications to a specific user / team. Apply to /platforms/{pk}/users/{pk}/ or /platforms/{pk}/usergroups/{pk}/.
ENROLLMENT_MANAGER	Manage course / pathway / program enrollments and invitations.
LIST_USERS / LIST_TEAMS	List users / teams for pickers.
CREATE_TEAMS	Create a UserGroup (team).
READ_TEAM / EDIT_TEAM	Per-team read / write. Apply to /platforms/{pk}/usergroups/{pk}/.
GROUP_MENTOR_MANAGER	List + read RBAC groups.
LLM_USERS / LLM_MODEL_ACCESS	List or read individual LLM providers / models the user is allowed to use.
SELL_ITEMS	Gate that allows selling items on the platform.
BILLING_MANAGER	Read + write platform credit settings.
CRM_VIEWER / CRM_USER / CRM_MANAGER / CRM_INVITER	Tiered CRM access — read / use / administer / invite leads.
WATCHED_GROUP_LIST / WATCHED_GROUP_READ	List / read watched groups for alerts.
WATCHED_GROUP_WATCHER_GRANTS	Extra analytics grants given to watchers on a WatchedGroup.

Step-by-step: define a custom role

1. Pick the action strings. Fetch the live action definitions endpoint above (or open references/default-roles.py for known-good examples). Use Ibl.* wildcards sparingly — they bypass field-level reads.
2. Pick the resources the role applies to. Resources are hierarchical and rooted at /platforms/{pk}/.... Granting on /platforms/{pk}/mentors/ covers every agent; granting on /platforms/{pk}/mentors/{pk}/ scopes to one.
3. Create the role via <RolesTab> (UI) or POST rbac/roles/ (API). Body: { name, platform_key, actions[], data_actions[] }. See /iblai-vibe-agent-access → "Roles CRUD" for the full REST contract.
4. Bind the role to users / groups via <PoliciesTab> (UI) or POST rbac/policies/. Body: { platform_key, name, role_id, resources[], user_ids[], group_ids[] }. Resources must start with /platforms/ and end with /.
5. Gate UI in your app with checkRbacPermission(rbacPermissions, path, enableRbac) after calling POST rbac/permissions/check/ to hydrate rbacPermissions. The permissions object on each resource response also exposes per-field / per-object flags you can use directly.
