BYOM: Allow custom base URL for self-hosted / internal LLM endpoints

Problem The current BYOM configuration accepts an API key for a supported provider (Anthropic, OpenAI, Gemini), but does not allow specifying a custom base URL. Enterprise organizations typically route LLM traffic through an internally-hosted proxy or gateway (e.g., LiteLLM) to enforce security controls, model governance, and cost management. In these environments, using a personal or team API key tied to a commercial provider account is not viable. All traffic must go through an internal endpoint on an approved FQDN. Requested Solution Add a custom base URL field to the Spacelift AI BYOM configuration, alongside the existing API key field. This would allow Spacelift to direct AI requests to any OpenAI-compatible endpoint (e.g., https://llm.internal.example.com/v1) rather than only to a commercial provider's public API. This pattern is standard across OpenAI-compatible clients (OPENAI_BASE_URL, openai.base_url in the Python SDK, etc.) and is how tools like LiteLLM, Azure OpenAI, vLLM, and Ollama are accessed. Use Case Our organization runs a centrally-managed LiteLLM instance serving internally-approved models via an OpenAI-compatible API. We want Spacelift AI features (plan summaries, resource explanations, policy suggestions) to use this internal endpoint, but the current BYOM flow only accepts a provider API key, with no way to redirect the base URL. Priority High. This is a blocker for enterprise customers with internal model governance requirements.

Disable public worker pools at the account/space level

## Requested Solution Add an account-level (and optionally space-level) toggle: **"Disable public worker pools."** When enabled: - Stacks without a `worker_pool_id` cannot trigger runs; they fail immediately with a clear error message before reaching any worker - The Spacelift UI hides or disables the "use public workers" option when creating/editing stacks - API and Terraform provider calls that create or update a stack without a `worker_pool_id` are rejected This should be inheritable: setting it at a parent space cascades to all children, matching the existing space-based RBAC model. --- ## Use Case Our organization requires all Terraform execution to occur on internally-managed private worker pools for security and compliance. Today, this requires writing and maintaining an OPA/Rego PLAN policy, attaching it to the correct space, and accepting that the policy only fires after `terraform plan` has already executed on the public runner. A misconfigured or newly-created stack silently defaults to public runners with no preventive guardrail. A simple toggle would eliminate the need for policy-based workarounds entirely. --- ## Priority High. This is a blocker for enterprise customers with private infrastructure mandates.

Delta and changes counts are misleading on failed and discarded runs

Problem The Changes view and the delta counts are generated on plan, after apply the delta counts are not updated to reflect the run outcome, while the Changes view has its own issues. When apply fails, the UI gives little to no indication of what actually happened. This is misleading for users reviewing completed runs. Delta counts only reflect the plan The + N ~ N - N delta shown in the Changes tab header within a run, and in the tracked runs list, is calculated from the plan and never updated after apply. In the run details view, this is somewhat understandable as a summary of what the plan proposed. But in the tracked runs list, the delta sits right next to the run's status badge. A row showing FAILED and + 9 ~ 1 - 0 gives no indication of the run’s outcome. For unapplied or proposed runs the plan delta makes perfect sense, but for completed runs, especially discarded and failed ones, it becomes very deceptive. We understand these are simply plan deltas, but surfacing the actual apply outcome here would be a significant improvement and a very useful signal. There's also an inconsistency: proposed runs have plans but don't show a delta in the MR/PR list. If the delta is meant to represent plan output rather than apply outcome, it should appear on proposed runs too. Showing it consistently across all runs would at least help users learn to read it as "what was planned" rather than "what happened." Why this matters For runs that fail or only partially apply, the UI gives no useful indication of what actually happened. The only way to find this out is to read the raw apply logs. In some cases, the gap between what the UI shows and what actually happened can be dangerous. This is compounded by the fact that run logs expire. Since the Changes view cannot be relied on, once the Terraform output is gone, the delta counts might be the only record of what a run did, making it very easy for users to read plan deltas as apply outcomes. Suggested improvements Fix the Changes view. Consider updating delta counts after apply, or showing both planned and applied/failed counts (e.g., "Planned: +9 ~1 | Failed: +2 ~1"), especially valuable given that these counts outlive the logs. The current plan-only view is fine for unconfirmed/discarded runs, but once apply runs, the badges should reflect reality, providing correct and durable information about the outcome. Currently, this isn’t available anywhere else once logs expire. Show plan deltas consistently across all run states that have a plan (including proposed runs), so users can learn to read them as plan output rather than apply outcome.

Changes view shows "SUCCESSFUL" badges on failed resources

Problem When a run's apply phase partially fails, the Changes view and the delta counts do not reflect what actually happened. This is confusing and misleading for users reviewing completed runs. "SUCCESSFUL" badges on resources that failed to apply This is a critical issue. The Changes view often shows a green SUCCESSFUL badge on every resource that was part of a confirmed plan, including resources that errored during apply. Notably, when a planned run is discarded, the badges stay at PLANNED. So the current behavior, as confirmed by Spacelift, is that "SUCCESSFUL" means "the plan was applied", this is factually wrong for resources that failed during apply. In the context of a finished run, on a tab called "Changes," a green SUCCESSFUL badge next to a resource means one thing to every user: this resource was successfully changed. When any number of resources shown in the delta actually failed to apply, showing all of them as SUCCESSFUL is actively incorrect and utterly confusing. Why this matters For runs where apply partially succeeds, the gap between what the UI shows and what actually happened is dangerous, users may assume changes landed when they didn't, or miss that resources are in a broken state. The only way to find out what actually happened is to read the raw apply logs; the UI provides no help. This is compounded by the fact that run logs expire. Once the Terraform output is gone, the delta counts and Changes view become the only record of what a run did, and right now they can be wrong. Suggested improvements Update the Changes view after apply: show per-resource apply outcome: failed, successful, or not attempted (“planned” can be equally confusing to less-experienced users who may miss the fact that a run was discarded). The current plan-only view is fine for unconfirmed/discarded runs, but once apply runs, the badges should reflect reality, providing correct and durable information about the outcome. Currently, this isn’t available anywhere else once logs expire. At minimum, stop labeling failed resources as SUCCESSFUL. If apply errored on a resource, that resource is not successful by any definition.

TTL on Intent Projects with automatic resource cleanup

Expose a ttl (or expires_at) property on Intent Projects with the following behavior: Configuration — TTL can be set at project creation or updated later, expressed either as a duration (72h, 7d, 30d) or an absolute timestamp. It should be settable via UI, API, GraphQL, and the Terraform provider. Default & policy control — Allow administrators to set a default TTL per space, and/or enforce a maximum TTL via an Intent policy (e.g., "all Intent Projects in the dev space must have a TTL ≤ 14 days"). Notifications — Send notifications (email/Slack via existing notification policies) to the project owner at configurable thresholds before expiration (e.g., 72h, 24h, 1h) with a one-click "extend TTL" action. Expiration behavior — When the TTL elapses, Spacelift automatically performs a destroy of all resources managed by the project in dependency order, subject to existing Intent policies (so a policy denial on delete is still respected and surfaced). The full cleanup run is recorded on the project's History tab for auditability, matching how deletions are already tracked. Project lifecycle after cleanup — Configurable: either archive the project (keeping history/receipts for audit) or fully delete it. Archive should be the default. Lock & grace handling — If a project is actively locked by a user session when TTL expires, delay cleanup until the lock releases (or a configurable grace period elapses), and notify the lock holder.

Auto-attachment of policies to Intent Projects via labels

Allow Intent policies (and ideally also contexts and integrations on Intent Projects) to use the existing autoattach: label convention. When an Intent Project is created or updated with a matching label, any policy carrying autoattach: should be automatically attached. Concretely: An Intent policy labeled autoattach:intent-baseline should auto-attach to every Intent Project labeled intent-baseline. The wildcard form autoattach:* should attach a policy to all Intent Projects within the policy's space (and child spaces), matching the behavior described in the Context docs. Auto-attached policies should be visible in the Intent Project's Policies tab, clearly marked as auto-attached (same UX as stacks). Support should extend to the Terraform provider and GraphQL API so that Intent Projects can be governed declaratively from an administrative stack.

Sandbox Environment for Policy Testing & Other Functionality

As an example, when iterating on login policies, every change invalidates all active sessions for the affected account. This creates a feedback loop: authors must repeatedly log back in (and disrupt other users' sessions) each time they test a policy modification, even for minor fixes like correcting a role name. The existing policy simulator helps validate syntax and basic logic, but it does not catch real-world authorization issues. For example, a policy may reference a role name like writer instead of the correct space-writer. The simulator evaluates the policy as valid, but the role doesn't actually grant the intended permissions in practice. These kinds of bugs are only discoverable through live testing — which currently means deploying to production and invalidating sessions.

JWT claims support for OIDC API keys (teams/groups passthrough)

When using OIDC API keys for authentication, JWT teams/groups claims are completely ignored, only the sub claim is processed. Teams must be pre-configured statically when creating the OIDC API key, making it impossible to pass through user group/team information dynamically at runtime. We are building a custom Backstage integration with Spacelift to enable self-service infrastructure provisioning with per-user permission boundaries. The Backstage plugin is not suitable as it uses a single admin API key. We need OIDC API keys to pass through the current user and respect Spacelift login policies, as is currently possible with SAML via input.session.teams. With thousands of team/service combinations, the existing workarounds (static API keys per team or subject-based encoding) are not viable at scale.
