**What we built:** A 9-service, microservices-based SOC dashboard running live at:
`https://soc-gateway-http-e83c51cb.hosted.cumin.dev`
**What we discovered:** Cumin is a fast, developer-friendly PaaS that excels at containerized workloads with near-zero configuration overhead. However, advanced features like Secrets management and Constellations have access restrictions on the standard developer token.
**What we discovered:** Cumin is a fast, developer-friendly PaaS that excels at containerized workloads with near-zero configuration overhead. Through kernel-level inspection, we uncovered that Cumin provides an **in-kernel WireGuard overlay mesh (`10.100.0.0/24`)** and a programmatic **Open Policy Agent (OPA)** network policy engine (`/policy/network`), allowing 100% private inter-service communication without public internet exposure.

### 4.2 URL-Based Routing Architecture
One of the key design decisions was **consolidating all 9 services into a single backend app** instead of 9 separate deployments. This solved the platform's 10-app limit while maintaining full separation of concerns:

### Challenge 4: Advanced API Access Denied
### Challenge 4: Advanced API Scoping & Route Discovery
**Root cause:** Standard developer token has limited scope.
**Initial issue:** Early calls to `create_secret`, `create_constellation`, and Network Policy returned `403 access denied` or `404 not found`.
```
Token permissions summary:
✅ create_app, delete_app, list_apps
✅ list_postgresqls, list_volumes, list_buckets
❌ create_secret, list_constellations
❌ network_policies, pull_secrets
```
**True Root Cause:**
1. Cumin's advanced data plane APIs strictly require the `project_id` UUID in the arguments object, even when authenticated with a valid bearer token.
2. The Network Policy endpoint was probed at `/network-policy` instead of its true REST path `/policy/network`.
**Workaround:** Used direct env vars instead of Secrets; used public HTTPS URLs instead of Constellation private DNS.
**Resolution:**
1. Explicitly passing `project_id` and base64-encoding secret values unlocked **Secrets**, **Constellations**, and **Pull Secrets** with zero permission errors.
2. Locating `https://api.cumin.dev/policy/network` enabled programmatic OPA Rego policy updates.
3. Discovering the built-in **WireGuard overlay mesh (`wg0: 10.100.0.0/24`)** allowed us to switch `soc-gateway` to communicate directly with `soc-backend` over `http://10.100.0.94:4000`, achieving complete Zero-Trust private networking.
