+# Resource address schema refactor
+
+We are implementing a common resource address schema for canvas: [user.name]@[remote-or-remote-alias]:[resource][optional path]
+This schema is to be used on all canvas-server clients(cli, electron ui, whatever rust/go or python based canvas roles the user decides to run locally)
+
+Examples:
+  userfoo@canvas.local:workspace1
+  userbar@canvas.remote:context-foo
+  userbaz@work.tld:workspace-baz/shell/bash # Dotfile reference when called with canvas dot
+  userbas@workmachine:workspace-baf/foo/bar/baf # When called with canvas context
+
+We'll use a common configuration store for all our client applications, by default in
+~/.canvas/config
+
+Minimal acceptable protection: 
+ - file permissions (chmod 600) and perhaps ~/.canvas/credentials.json separate from config for easier secrets handling but we are in MVP territory so not sure about spliting it off yet/as-of-now
+ - For future, we can support OS keyrings.
+
+Local configuration should use the following files/schemas:
+```
+    /remotes.json
+        {
+            "user@remote-shortname":{
+                url: https://full-canvs-server-url:port/
+                apiBase: /rest/v2
+                description: optional description
+                auth:
+                    "method": "token|password|oauth2|oidc",
+                    "tokenType": "jwt",
+                    "token": "..."
+                },
+                lastSynced: timestamp-of-last-full-sync
+            }
+        }
+    /contexts.json
+        {
+            "user@remote-shortname:context_id": {
+                url
+                ...context object we get from remote canvas-server api when listing contexts/updating/creating individual contexts
+                lastSynced: timestamp-of-last-sync
+            }
+        }
+
+    /workspaces.json
+        {
+            "user@remote-shortname:workspace_id": {
+                ...workspace object we get from remote canvas-server api when listing workspaces/updating/creating individual workspaces
+                lastSynced: timestamp-of-last-sync
+            }
+        }
+    /session-cli.json
+        {
+            boundRemote: user.name@remote-shortname
+            defaultWorkspace: user@remote-shortname:workspace_id, optional
+            boundContext: user@remote-shortname:context_id, optional
+            boundAt: timestamp
+        }
+```
+
+Every canvas-server instance holds a index of all its local users, contexts, workspaces but to
+- a) not overengineer our MVP
+- b) not overcomplicate the UX
+
+we'll treat canvas-servers / remotes as with git or ssh.  
+
+Every Context and every Workspace can also be accessed using a dedicated api-token(you can share your workspace with other users by creating a api token(ro or rw) for said workspace or context - not sure where to store that information, probably in workspaces.json worksapce.auth.type? and if auth.type is token we use workspace token to access that workspace
+
+Whenever canvas cli does any changes related to the context(mostly changing its URL) or workspace(changing its parameters) - we get a full object back, we should therefore update our local index right away  
+`$ canvas context bind user@remote:context-id`  
+`$ canvas context set workspace-id://some/context/path`  
+Returns a context object which we can save
+
+The following commands should be implemented in our main bun/node based CLI:
+```
+canvas remote add user@remote-shortname url --token <optional token, otherwise we ask for a password>
+canvas remote list | ls
+canvas remote remove user@remote-shortname
+canvas remote sync user@remote-shortname
+canvas remote ping user@remote-shortname
+canvas remote bind user@remote-shortname # To select a remote as default, we should write ~/.canvas/session.json
+canvas remote login user@remote-shortname # JWT
+canvas remote logout user@remote-shortname # JWT
+remote rename old new
+remote show user@remote # Dump remote details
+```
+On login, we should call
+```
+GET apiBase/workspaces
+GET apiBase/contexts
+```
+
+Then update our local indexes  
+This should also be triggered with the sync command above
+
+Indexes needs to be updated on a per-resource basis, not just by overwriting the whole file but by selectively updating the resource
+
+So  
+Guess lets devise a plan to update the canvas-server backend and canvas-cli and start working
