feat(apps): 新增 http-chat 多租户并发示例并登记进 apps/README

multi_tenant.py：app.py 的并发/多租户版，用 /api/v1/auth/register 并发创建多个租户（各自独立 workspace + Session），同时跑 N 轮链式对话，校验真并发、多轮上下文按 thread 各自保持、租户隔离（search 仅见己有线程 + 跨租户 GET 404）。轮数/租户数可配（DF_TURNS / DF_TENANTS），唯一邮箱可重复跑且不触发限流。 Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.8 (1M context) <noreply@anthropic.com>
docs(readme): 中文 README 改以多租户改造为主线 + 忽略 IDE/agent 产物

+## 多租户改造（本分支主线）
+
+DeerFlow 原本面向"单机可信环境、单用户"。本分支按"以个人用户为主、少量小团队，统一只有 **workspace** 概念（个人 = 1 人 workspace），中心化 SaaS 为主线"的目标，把租户能力分 **Stage 0–4** 渐进落地。**目前 Stage 0（底座）工程层面已全部合入。**
+
+### Stage 0 已落地的能力
+
+| 能力 | 说明 | 落点 |
+|---|---|---|
+| **workspace 租户模型** | 新增 `workspaces` + `workspace_memberships` 两张表与仓储；每个用户注册时自动建 1 人 workspace（owner=自己）；slug 唯一、黑名单校验。 | `persistence/workspace*` |
+| **Postgres 成为默认后端** | `config.example.yaml` / `.env.example` / `make dev` / `make doctor` 默认走 Postgres，与生产对齐；SQLite 保留为离线开发兜底。 | 见 [数据库后端](#数据库后端) |
+| **行级数据隔离** | 4 张业务表（`threads_meta` / `runs` / `run_events` / `feedback`）加 `workspace_id` 列（`NOT NULL` + `UNIQUE(workspace_id, thread_id)` 兜底），入口路由按 `(workspace_id, thread_id)` 强校验，跨 workspace 访问必 404。 | `persistence/*`、Gateway routers |
+| **扩展后的 JWT** | TokenPayload 一次到位为 `{sub, wid, role, exp, iat, ver}`；登录 / 改密 / `/auth/me` 全部带上 workspace 与角色；旧版 4 字段 JWT 被识别为 `WORKSPACE_MISSING` 并要求重登。 | `app/gateway/auth/` |
+| **per-workspace 文件系统** | 运行期状态从 `users/{uid}/...` 迁移到 `workspaces/{wid}/threads/{tid}/...`，提供 `make migrate-paths` 迁移脚本（支持 `DRY_RUN=1` 预览）。 | `config/paths.py`、`thread_data_middleware.py` |
+| **边界扫描围栏** | CI 静态扫描禁止任何路径绕过入口直连 LangGraph checkpoint/store，确保隔离不被旁路。 | `tests/boundary_allowlist.toml`、`test_workspace_boundary*.py` |
+| **Headless API schema 底座** | 预建 `service_accounts` / `api_keys`（`dfk_live_*` / `dfk_test_*`）/ `external_users` 三张表（schema-only），为 Stage 1 的无人值守接入做准备。 | `persistence/{service_account,api_key,external_user}` |
+| **Alembic 迁移 + 回填** | `0001`→`0003` 迁移链 + `backfill_workspace_id.py` 回填脚本，dev 用 `create_all()` 自愈、生产用迁移。 | `persistence/migrations/` |
+
+> 数据库的事实参考（10 张表全字段 / 外键 / 索引）见 [`database-schema-as-built.zh-CN.md`](docs/multi-tenant-redesign/01-redesign/database-schema-as-built.zh-CN.md)。
+
+### 路线图：Stage 0–4
+
+| Stage | 目标 | 关键内容 | 状态 |
+|---|---|---|---|
+| **0** | workspace 模型立起来 + Postgres 切换 + auth 收紧 | 上表全部 | ✅ 工程层面已合入（业务门 / live 验证待跟进）|
+| **1** | 第一批付费客户 + 业务系统集成（双轨并行）| quota + 计费 + AioSandbox 轻量加固；Headless API（Pattern A/B）接通 PR8 三张表 | 🔜 已具备底座 |
+| **2** | 增长期，安全与隔离深化 | DeerFlow 自有表启用 RLS、KMS、ObjectStorage、完整 RBAC + invitation | 📋 规划中 |
+| **3** | 成熟期，K8s 隔离 + BYO | K8s namespace + NetworkPolicy、BYO LLM key、audit DB 拆分 | 📋 规划中 |
+| **4** | 企业化，按需开启 | SSO、自定义域名、per-tenant DB、gVisor/Kata、合规审计 | 📋 按合同 |

-## 一句话交给 Coding Agent 安装
-
-如果你在用 Claude Code、Codex、Cursor、Windsurf 或其他 coding agent，可以直接把下面这句话发给它：
-
-```text
-如果还没 clone DeerFlow，就先 clone，然后按照 https://raw.githubusercontent.com/bytedance/deer-flow/main/Install.md 把它的本地开发环境初始化好
-```
-
-这条提示词是给 coding agent 用的。它会在需要时先 clone 仓库，优先选择 Docker，完成初始化，并在结束时告诉你下一条启动命令，以及还缺哪些配置需要你补充。

-## 从 Deep Research 到 Super Agent Harness
+## 多租户架构详解

-DeerFlow 最初是一个 Deep Research 框架，后来社区把它一路推到了更远的地方。上线之后，开发者拿它去做的事情早就不止研究：搭数据流水线、生成演示文稿、快速起 dashboard、自动化内容流程，很多方向一开始连我们自己都没想到。
+> 这一节展开 [多租户改造](#多租户改造本分支主线) 里 Stage 0 已落地的实现细节。完整决策与路线见 [`docs/multi-tenant-redesign/`](docs/multi-tenant-redesign/)。

-这让我们意识到一件事：DeerFlow 不只是一个研究工具。它更像一个 **harness**，一个真正让 agents 把事情做完的运行时基础设施。
+**workspace 是唯一的隔离粒度。** 个人用户 = 1 人 workspace，小团队 = 多人 workspace。骨架是两条主线：

-所以我们把它从头重做了一遍。
+1. **租户骨架**：`users` ↔ `workspaces`（多对多经 `workspace_memberships`）。每个用户注册时自动建 1 人 workspace（owner=自己），slug 唯一且过黑名单校验。
+2. **业务数据**：`threads_meta` → `runs` → `run_events` / `feedback`，全部挂 `workspace_id`（行级隔离），workspace 删除时级联清空。

-DeerFlow 2.0 不再是一个需要你自己拼装的 framework。它是一个开箱即用、同时又足够可扩展的 super agent harness。基于 LangGraph 和 LangChain 构建，默认就带上了 agent 真正会用到的关键能力：文件系统、memory、skills、sandbox 执行环境，以及为复杂多步骤任务做规划、拉起 sub-agents 的能力。
+**数据隔离怎么做的。** DeerFlow 自有表走行级 `workspace_id` + `UNIQUE(workspace_id, thread_id)` 兜底；入口路由（`threads.py` / `thread_runs.py`）按 `(workspace_id, thread_id)` 强校验，跨 workspace 访问必返 404。LangGraph 自己的 checkpointer / store 表（`langgraph-checkpoint-postgres==3.0.5` 无 `connection_factory`，无法注入 RLS）则走**应用层强校验**，并由 CI 静态扫描（`tests/boundary_allowlist.toml`）禁止任何路径绕过入口直连这些表。

-你可以直接拿来用，也可以拆开重组，改成你自己的样子。
+**身份与会话。** JWT TokenPayload 一次到位为 `{sub, wid, role, exp, iat, ver}`：
+
+- `wid` — 当前 workspace；`role` — workspace 内角色（Stage 0 简化为 owner-only，Stage 2 扩到 owner/admin/member）。
+- `ver` — `token_version`，bump 后旧 token 全失效。
+- 旧版 4 字段 JWT 会被识别为 `WORKSPACE_MISSING` 并要求重登；登录 / 改密 / `/auth/me` 都会带上 workspace 与角色（`/auth/me` 返回 `workspaces[]`，含 id/name/slug/role）。
+
+**文件系统布局。** 运行期状态按 workspace 分目录：
+
+```text
+${DEER_FLOW_HOME:-./.deer-flow}/
+└── workspaces/
+    └── {workspace_id}/
+        ├── threads/{thread_id}/...   ← 每个 thread 的 sandbox / 产物
+        └── users/{user_id}/...       ← 用户级状态
+```
+
+历史的 `users/{uid}/...` 布局用 `make migrate-paths`（`DRY_RUN=1` 预览）迁移过来。
+
+**Headless API schema 底座（Stage 0 末预建，schema-only）。** 为 Stage 1 的无人值守 / 业务系统接入准备：
+
+- `service_accounts` — workspace 内的非人身份，带 `identity_mode` 三态（`collapsed` / `external_passthrough` / `both`）。
+- `api_keys` — service account 的凭证，格式 `dfk_live_*` / `dfk_test_*`，`key_prefix` 全局唯一 + 部分索引 `WHERE revoked_at IS NULL`。
+- `external_users` — passthrough 终端身份，`(service_account_id, external_id)` 复合唯一。
+
+> ⚠️ Stage 0 只建表，**API Key 鉴权中间件尚未接入**。外部系统当前只能走会话 cookie（见 [apps/README.md](apps/README.md) 的鉴权说明）；等 `Authorization: Bearer dfk_live_...` 在 Stage 1 落地后再补无人值守接入。

+# apps/ — 基于 DeerFlow 的应用
+
+这个目录用于存放**消费 DeerFlow 智能体能力的上层应用**。每个应用一个子文件夹。
+
+## 为什么放在这里
+
+DeerFlow 的代码有一条严格的依赖方向（见根 `CLAUDE.md`）：
+
+```
+backend/packages/harness/deerflow/   ← 可发布的 Agent 框架（deerflow.*）
+backend/app/                         ← Gateway / IM 通道（app.*）
+apps/                                ← 你的应用（消费 deerflow，不反向依赖）  ← 本目录
+```
+
+规则：**app 可以依赖 deerflow，deerflow 不能依赖 app / apps**。本目录放在 `backend/` 之外、与 `frontend/` 平级，天然符合这条边界。
+
+## 两种集成模式
+
+| 模式 | 适用场景 | 怎么连 | 示例 |
+|---|---|---|---|
+| **HTTP Gateway**（REST+SSE） | 上层是别的服务 / 多语言 | 调 `http://localhost:2026/api/*` | [`examples/http-chat/`](examples/http-chat/) |
+| **内嵌 DeerFlowClient** | 上层本身是 Python，进程内直接当 SDK 调 | `from deerflow.client import DeerFlowClient` | [`examples/embedded-chat/`](examples/embedded-chat/) |
+
+> 还有第三种：LangGraph SDK（`langgraph_sdk.get_client(url=".../api")`，graph id `lead_agent`），用于接入 LangGraph 生态工具链。需要的话照 HTTP 示例的鉴权流程拿 cookie 即可。
+
+### 运行示例（每个示例自带 run.sh）
+
+```bash
+# ① HTTP 模式：需要先起 Gateway（dev-gateway 或 dev-full 都行）
+#    run.sh 会自动探测网关地址：优先 :2026，回退 :8001
+./apps/examples/http-chat/run.sh
+DF_BASE=http://localhost:8001 ./apps/examples/http-chat/run.sh   # 也可手动指定
+
+# ② 内嵌模式：不需要起任何服务，run.sh 自动进 backend uv 环境运行
+./apps/examples/embedded-chat/run.sh
+```
+
+http-chat 的 `run.sh` 优先用 `uv run --no-project --with requests`（临时环境，不污染系统），没有 uv 才回退到本地 `.venv` + pip；可用 `DF_BASE` / `DF_EMAIL` / `DF_PASSWORD` 覆盖。embedded-chat 的 `run.sh` 自动定位 `backend/`、加载 `.env` 后用 `uv run` 启动，依赖 `config.yaml` 里有可用模型。
+
+### 多租户并发验证（HTTP 模式）
+
+[`examples/http-chat/multi_tenant.py`](examples/http-chat/multi_tenant.py) 是 `app.py` 的并发 / 多租户版：用 `/api/v1/auth/register` 并发创建多个租户（每个注册用户自带独立 workspace），各自一个 `requests.Session`（独立 cookie）同时跑 N 轮链式对话，并校验：① 真并发（对话时间窗重叠）；② 多轮上下文按 `thread_id` 各自保持（第 2 轮起每轮都依赖上一轮结果）；③ 租户隔离（`POST /api/threads/search` 仅见己有线程，跨租户 `GET /api/threads/{id}` 返回 404）。
+
+```bash
+# 前提：已起 Gateway（dev-gateway 或 dev-full）
+DF_BASE=http://localhost:8001 DF_TENANTS=4 DF_TURNS=10 \
+  uv run --no-project --with requests python apps/examples/http-chat/multi_tenant.py
+```
+
+环境变量：`DF_BASE`（网关地址，默认 :8001）、`DF_TENANTS`（并发租户数，默认 3）、`DF_TURNS`（每租户轮数，默认 10）。每次运行用唯一邮箱新建租户，可重复跑，不撞 email、也不触发登录限流（`/register` 不限流；`setup-status` 全程只调一次以避开 60s/IP 限流）。
+
+## 前置：先把 DeerFlow 跑起来
+
+在**仓库根目录**：
+
+```bash
+make dev          # 起 Gateway(8001) + 前端(3000) + nginx(2026)，统一入口 http://localhost:2026
+```
+
+确保 `config.yaml` 里至少配了一个可用模型 + API key。
+
+### 本地调试脚本（推荐）
+
+`make dev` 是前台阻塞运行。日常调试更顺手的是仓库根 `scripts/` 下两个生命周期脚本，子命令统一为 `start / stop / restart / status / logs / run`：
+
+| 脚本 | 起什么 | 入口 | 适合 |
+|---|---|---|---|
+| `scripts/dev-gateway.sh` | 只起 Gateway | `http://localhost:8001` | 调后端 API / 接入示例，起得快 |
+| `scripts/dev-full.sh` | Gateway + 前端 + nginx | `http://localhost:2026` | 连前端一起调，完整体验 |
+
+```bash
+./scripts/dev-gateway.sh start          # 后台启动，等就绪后返回
+./scripts/dev-gateway.sh status         # PID / 端口 / HTTP 健康检查
+./scripts/dev-gateway.sh logs           # tail -f 跟随日志（不影响服务）
+./scripts/dev-gateway.sh stop
+
+./scripts/dev-full.sh start             # 全量栈后台启动（首次装依赖）
+SKIP_INSTALL=1 ./scripts/dev-full.sh start   # 跳过依赖安装，重启更快
+./scripts/dev-full.sh status            # 三服务一览
+./scripts/dev-full.sh run               # 前台运行（= make dev，gateway 带热重载）
+```
+
+环境变量：`PORT=`(换端口)、`NO_RELOAD=1`(关热重载，断点更稳)、`SKIP_INSTALL=1`(全量栈跳过装依赖)。
+
+## 鉴权（HTTP 模式必读）
+
+Gateway 是 **fail-closed** 的——除少数公开路径外所有请求都要带会话 cookie：
+
+1. `GET /api/v1/auth/setup-status` → 是否还没管理员
+2. 首次 `POST /api/v1/auth/initialize`（JSON `{email,password}`）建第一个管理员；之后 `POST /api/v1/auth/login/local`（**表单** `username`=邮箱 + `password`）
+3. 成功后 Session 里有 `access_token`(HttpOnly) + `csrf_token` 两个 cookie
+4. **所有写请求**（POST/PUT/DELETE/PATCH）必须带 `X-CSRF-Token` 头 = `csrf_token` 值
+
+> 多租户：当前 `docs/multi-tenant-redesign` 分支的 API Key 鉴权中间件尚未接入，外部系统暂时只能走会话 cookie。等 `Authorization: Bearer dfk_live_...` 落地后再补无人值守接入。每个注册用户即一个独立租户（自带 workspace）；并发与隔离行为可用上面的 [`multi_tenant.py`](examples/http-chat/multi_tenant.py) 验证。

+Stage 0 PR5 step 1/2 (the second step lives in revision 0003).

+This revision adds a *nullable* ``workspace_id`` column to the four
+business tables that need tenancy scoping:
+
+  * ``threads_meta``
+  * ``runs``
+  * ``feedback``
+  * ``run_events``
+
+The column is nullable here on purpose — running ``upgrade`` on a
+database with existing rows leaves those rows with ``workspace_id = NULL``
+until ``scripts/backfill_workspace_id.py`` populates them. Once the
+backfill finishes, revision 0003 flips the column to ``NOT NULL`` and
+adds the threads_meta ``(workspace_id, thread_id)`` UNIQUE index.
+
+A composite index ``idx_threads_meta_workspace_user_updated`` is added
+on ``threads_meta`` to support the common "list a workspace's threads
+for a user, newest first" access pattern that PR6 routers will rely on.

-          decorators where treating an untracked thread as accessible
-          preserves backward-compat.
-
-        - ``require_existing=True`` (strict):
-          Returns True **only** when the row exists AND
-          (``row.user_id == user_id`` OR ``row.user_id is None``).
-          Use for **destructive / mutating** decorators (DELETE, PATCH,

-          cannot be re-targeted by any caller — closing the

-          made every other user appear to "own" it.
+        - Cross-workspace is **always** denied (returns False), even when
+          the row exists and ``user_id`` matches. The decorator layer
+          converts a False into a 404 so cross-tenant access never leaks
+          the existence of a thread.
+        - Missing row honours ``require_existing``: False by default
+          (permissive — untracked legacy threads still readable), True
+          for destructive routes (DELETE / PATCH) so a re-targeted ghost
+          row cannot be claimed.
+        - Within the workspace, ``row.user_id IS NULL`` keeps the legacy

+"""Request-scoped workspace context for multi-tenant authorization.
+
+Sibling of :mod:`deerflow.runtime.user_context`. Holds a
+:class:`~contextvars.ContextVar` that the gateway's auth middleware sets
+after JWT verification (PR4 will wire this up). Repository methods read
+the contextvar via a sentinel default parameter, letting routers stay
+free of ``workspace_id`` boilerplate.
+
+Three-state semantics for the repository ``workspace_id`` parameter:
+
+- ``AUTO`` (sentinel, default): read from contextvar; raise
+  :class:`RuntimeError` if unset.
+- Explicit ``str``: use the provided value, overriding contextvar.
+- Explicit ``None``: no WHERE clause — used only by migration scripts
+  and admin CLIs that intentionally bypass workspace isolation.
+
+Concept boundary
+----------------
+A workspace is the multi-tenant scope: a single-user free account is
+its own 1-person workspace; a team subscription is a multi-member
+workspace. The user_id contextvar narrows further to "which member of
+the workspace", letting some operations be member-scoped while others
+(skill install, billing, etc.) are workspace-scoped.
+
+Dependency direction
+--------------------
+``persistence`` (lower layer) reads from this module; ``gateway.auth``
+(higher layer) writes to it. ``CurrentWorkspace`` is defined here as a
+:class:`typing.Protocol` so that ``persistence`` never needs to import
+the concrete ``Workspace`` row class from ``deerflow.persistence.workspace``.
+Any object with ``.id: str`` and ``.role: str`` attributes structurally
+satisfies the protocol.
+
+Asyncio semantics
+-----------------
+Identical to ``user_context``: ``ContextVar`` is task-local under asyncio.
+``asyncio.create_task`` inherits the parent task's workspace context;
+threading.Timer does **not** (callers spawning timers must capture
+``get_effective_workspace_id()`` at enqueue time, the same way
+:mod:`deerflow.agents.memory.queue` captures ``user_id``).

+  2. ``UPDATE`` each of ``threads_meta`` / ``runs`` / ``feedback`` /

+# verify_stage0.sh — systematic verification of the Stage 0 multi-tenant rollout.
+#
+# Layers (each can be run individually; defaults run all that are applicable):
+#   static   — full pytest suite + lint + boundary scan (no external deps)
+#   paths    — local filesystem layout: legacy users/ should be empty after migration
+#   rds      — schema + index + alembic state on the remote Postgres (needs DATABASE_URL)
+#   runtime  — gateway health probes (needs `make dev` running)
+#   e2e      — register 2 users via curl, each creates a thread, cross-access must 404
+#
+# Usage:
+#   ./scripts/verify_stage0.sh                 # run everything that has prerequisites
+#   ./scripts/verify_stage0.sh static rds      # only those two
