Problem

Several administration and definition surfaces still ask users to type foreign IDs or comma-separated reference lists. This is error-prone, exposes storage details, and does not explain unavailable or inherited targets.

The Views assignment improvement introduced a shared SearchableSelect component and an optional-capability-safe directory lookup. This issue tracks the reusable platform work needed for the remaining domains.

Platform work

  • Define typed option/provider contracts for users, groups, tenants, configuration change requests, modules, credentials, servers, and other module-owned resources.
  • Support async single selection, multi-selection, disabled/unavailable targets, and readable provenance.
  • Let providers remain optional; consuming modules must not import optional module implementations.
  • Add a pattern-aware mode where policies accept wildcards, retaining explicit custom patterns alongside discoverable resources.
  • Preserve stable IDs in API payloads while rendering names and useful secondary labels in the UI.

Concrete follow-ups

  • Workflow and Dataflow definition ownership and scoped-copy dialogs.
  • Configuration package tenant and change-request references.
  • Files connector/credential policy references.
  • Notification source-module muting.
  • Credential-envelope and Mail module/server availability references.
  • Existing large user/group/account dropdowns in Access, Campaign, and IDM can adopt the shared searchable control after their current target APIs are normalized.

Explicit non-targets

Do not replace user-defined stable keys or protocol identifiers with foreign-object selectors. Campaign external IDs, file connection/profile keys, and VEVENT UID/RECURRENCE-ID need generation, validation, or advanced-field treatment instead.

Codex State: done

Summary

  • Added shared typed backend and WebUI reference-option/provider contracts with async single/multi selection, stable IDs, disabled/unavailable states, provenance, provider composition, and custom wildcard support.
  • Implemented all concrete follow-ups in Workflow, Dataflow, Admin, Files, Notifications, and the relevant credential/Mail server-reference slice.
  • Optional integrations use capabilities and active registries; Core does not import optional module implementations.

Changed Files

  • src/govoplan_core/core/references.py
  • src/govoplan_core/api/v1/schemas.py
  • webui/src/components/ReferenceSelect.tsx
  • webui/src/components/SearchableSelect.tsx
  • webui/src/platform/referenceProviders.ts
  • webui/src/components/CredentialEnvelopeManager.tsx

Verification

  • tools/checks/check-focused.sh (passed)
  • ruff targeted scans (passed)
  • Reference option and selector tests (passed)
