A Secret is addressed as `POST /v1/secret/{id}/<action>`, where `{id}` is the
namespace path and the name joined by a delimiter. The client performs that
join; the service can only judge the components the split produced. So a
component carrying path or delimiter syntax does not arrive as bad input for
the service to refuse -- it arrives as a different, well-formed identity.
`create_secret("a$b", value)` read as the namespace `a` and the name `b`: a
Secret that may already exist, whose credential an alter would overwrite. The
service never refused it because it was never asked about `a$b`. `"../jobs"`
did not reach the service at all, taking a body holding a credential to
whatever route the normalized path resolved to.
`Connection` now checks each component before anything is joined:
alphanumerics, `_`, `-` and `.`, at most 255 bytes, and not periods alone --
a component of only periods is read as a relative path after decoding, so no
spelling of it addresses anything. `RemoteDatabase` adds the one rule that
depends on configuration it owns: a component may not contain the delimiter it
is about to be joined with. The default `$` is outside the character set, so
that fires only for a configured delimiter, where the readable choices -- `.`,
`-`, `_` -- are all inside it.
This is not a second opinion on whether a name is acceptable. It is what makes
the service's opinion reachable, and it belongs to whoever builds the URL:
- The join happens here, and the join is what decides identity.
- It is one definition, not two. The service already imports this crate's
`validate_table_name` and `validate_namespace`; the Secret rule is placed
beside them so it can be imported the same way rather than restated.
- It covers every binding. Python and Node wrap this crate, and today the
checks are scattered -- Secrets validated in Python, Functions at
registration, tables in exactly one method, Rust nowhere.
- `validate_table_name` is already called on the local path in
`database/listing.rs`. The remote path is the inconsistent one.
Percent-encoding stays as a second line. Every admitted character is
unreserved, so an accepted component encodes to itself and the route reads as
before -- `/v1/secret/prod$vision_2$openai-prod.v1/drop`.
Tests: an illegal component never reaches the transport; a dot-only component
is refused as a name and as a segment; a configured delimiter is refused inside
a component while the same two names as separate segments are the ordinary
case.
