Stacked on #4173 (diff includes it until that merges; will rebase after). Addresses the token-cache part of [Colin's review](https://github.com/lancedb/lancedb/pull/4173#issuecomment-5674048100). Adds an explicit, opt-in persistent OAuth token cache shared by Rust, Python, and Node clients, plus `login` / `status` / `logout` session APIs, so short-lived processes (CLIs, scripts, notebooks) reuse one session instead of restarting a browser or device flow on every start. - **Opt-in and minimal**: existing callers stay memory-only and lazy. Only refresh tokens are persisted (never access tokens, never client secrets), so there are no local token-expiry decisions to get wrong when clocks move. Each process start performs one silent refresh grant. - **Hardened file backend**: private directory (`0700`), per-record files (`0600`), owner validation, symlink rejection, and atomic `rename` replacement. Corrupt, truncated, unknown-version, or permission-invalid records fail with actionable errors naming the file. Native keyring backends were evaluated (keyring crate routes Linux through D-Bus/zbus: heavy deps, headless/CI flakiness) and are deferred; the file store is the explicit opt-in, not a downgrade from a keyring. - **Cache key**: SHA-256 of the canonical identity (issuer, client ID, sorted/de-duplicated scopes, flow, public/confidential), so no secret appears in a filename and distinct identities never collide. Versioned record schema (`version: 1`). One record per identity: last login wins, documented. - **Cross-process rotation locking**: per-key `fs4` file lock (`flock` / `LockFileEx`) around the refresh critical section — acquire, reread the durable record, refresh exactly once, atomically store the rotated refresh token, release. The OS releases locks on process death, so crashes cannot strand stale locks. Only confirmed `invalid_grant`/`invalid_token` deletes a record and reauthenticates; transport, 5xx, 429, and parse failures retain it. - **Session APIs**: `OAuthSession::login/status/logout` in Rust, `lancedb.remote.OAuthSession` (async) in Python, `OAuthSession` class in Node. `status` returns non-secret metadata only. `logout` removes only the local credential — provider revocation (RFC 7009) is a deliberate follow-up, and local logout never terminates browser SSO. Azure managed identity is rejected for persistence (machine identity stays in memory); client credentials have nothing refreshable to persist and stay memory-only. - No CLI binary exists in this repo, so this ships library APIs plus doc examples in all three languages. Tests: Rust unit + mock-IdP integration (cache-key canonicalization/separation, record versioning/corruption/truncation/symlink/owner/perms, lock serialization + release, two concurrent providers proving no `invalid_grant` and correct rotation, transient-failure retention, `invalid_grant` delete + reauthenticate, login/status/logout lifecycle, client-credentials no-op, IMDS rejection, secret redaction); Python lifecycle + a true two-subprocess cross-process reuse test (second process refreshes once, never hits the device endpoint); Node lifecycle + device-flow login test. Local builds were skipped in development; CI validates all bindings. --------- Co-authored-by: Xuanwo <github@xuanwo.io>

@lancedb/lancedb / OAuthSession
Class: OAuthSession
Explicit OAuth session lifecycle for the persistent token cache: eager
login, non-secret status, and local logout.
A session is built from the same OAuthConfig used to connect
(including its tokenCache options). A connection created with the same
configuration shares the cache, so logging in here prepares tokens for
later processes without any database request.
login always runs the configured interactive flow and replaces the cached
session (the most recent login wins). logout removes only the local
credential; it does not revoke anything with the provider and does not sign
out of a browser SSO session.
Example
const config: OAuthConfig = {
issuerUrl: "https://issuer.example.com",
clientId: "my-app",
scopes: ["openid", "offline_access"],
flow: OAuthFlowType.DeviceCode,
tokenCache: { cacheDir: "/tmp/my-app/oauth-cache" },
};
const session = new OAuthSession(config);
const status = await session.login();
Constructors
new OAuthSession()
new OAuthSession(config): OAuthSession
Create a session manager for the given OAuth configuration.
Parameters
- config:
OAuthConfig
Returns
Methods
login()
login(): Promise<SessionStatus>
Eagerly run the configured authentication flow and store the session.
A successful login always replaces any prior cached session for this
identity; if the provider does not issue a refresh token (for example
without offline_access), the previous record is removed and the status
reports refreshable == false.
Returns
Promise<SessionStatus>
logout()
logout(): Promise<SessionLogout>
Remove the matching local cached credential.
This only deletes the local cache entry. It does not revoke the refresh
token with the provider and does not sign out of a browser SSO session.
Repeated calls succeed; removed reports whether a credential existed.
Returns
Promise<SessionLogout>
status()
status(): Promise<SessionStatus>
Report whether a matching cached session exists, with safe metadata.
This never contacts the identity provider and never exposes token values.
Returns
Promise<SessionStatus>
