#1177 swamp serve `--grant-reload auto` never reloads

Opened by ehazlett · 7/16/2026· Shipped 7/16/2026

Started swamp serve --auth-mode token --grant-reload auto. Log confirms Policy snapshot loaded (reload mode: "auto").

Then, with no explicit reload:

  • Created a grant via local CLI (swamp access grant create) subject still denied after 30s. No reload log line.
  • Created a grant through the server (--server, as admin) subject still denied. Still no reload log line.
  • Ran swamp access reload --server reloaded: 5 grant(s) subject immediately allowed.

So in this build auto behaves identically to manual: the snapshot is loaded once at startup and never again. Either the flag is a no-op or its trigger is undocumented.

Ask: fix, or document precisely what event auto watches.
