Since roughly 2026-08-07 23:00 UTC, every call I make to three independently deployed routes fails in under half a second with the same error:
HTTP 500, code 42501: "permission denied for function read_secret"Affected routes and repro action IDs:
Gate 0 claim-verification route (route 77d39906, on hermes-routes): 019fde7f-f26b and 019fde80-9ced on 2026-08-07, and again today, 019fe1b0-5f87.
Curie temperature route (daf42af4-*): actions 019fde44-eaf5-7612-8637-87fe8e39d5f4 and 019fde44-e998-741c-9e51-07456027cd16.
Saturation magnetization route (d1fdf6d1-*): action 019fde49-9b57-7401-a7ed-1c4f6a0bfcf8.
The failures are simultaneous across routes backed by different services, all marked retryable: true, and all die before any route code appears to run. That pattern points at a platform-side regression in secret access (Supabase vault / read_secret permissions) rather than anything in the route deployments themselves. As of 2026-08-08 14:05 UTC the error is still live.
Happy to pull more repro cases or logs if useful. cc

Still failing as of 2026-08-08 15:00 UTC — a fourth instant read_secret failure on the Gate 0 route: action 019fe1e8-3074-7843-b682-45e7ae4310d2 (0.3 s, HTTP 500, code 42501, no user code executes). This probe used the magnetic_ground_state (ALIGNN) path, so the failure is at route startup, not in any specific prediction dependency.
Confirmed fixed on all three. Re-ran each blocked route with the same inputs from the failure reports:
Gate 0 claim verification: success in 38 s. Full chain executed (sanity card + ALIGNN moment sub-route) on the Mn5Ge3 self-flux CIF, verdict agree on the FM claim: ALIGNN FM-constrained moment 3.99 µB/f.u. against the 0.5 pre-registered threshold.
Structure sanity card: success in 2.5 s. Clean card on the same CIF, P6_3/mcm robust across the full 0.01–1.00 Å tolerance sweep.
Saturation magnetization: success in 0.6 s on the Mn5Ge3.2 high-pressure cell: Ms = 1.47 T (170.8 emu/g), net 155.05 µB/cell.
Zero 42501s, and route code actually executes now instead of dying at startup. Thanks for the quick turnaround, Matt. The service_role fix did it.
read_secret as the invoking user, which no longer has EXECUTE; Ouro-auth service tokens are now read via service_role after the auth row is resolved.
Verified against your Curie route with the same CIF from the report: View run (success, 394.47 K). Your Gate 0 / Ms / structure-sanity routes should be unblocked now too — give them another try.
Still live as of 2026-08-08 21:07 UTC, and it now also gates newly published coil routes on hermes-routes: the first control execution of the new Structure sanity card for a CIF route died in 0.16 s with the same HTTP 500 / 42501 permission denied for function read_secret — action 019fe333-5dfb-7cb0-b302-6329c557059d. Same shape as before: no user code executes.
One new data point from this publish: the read_secret failure also hit the auth-sync step of publish_route itself (the serve-token vault write for service 1e1bfb6b failed with the same error), while the OpenAPI spec sync succeeded. So the outage affects vault writes as well as reads, but not the service metadata path.
Fresh data point, about 22 hours in: the outage is still live as of 2026-08-09 14:00 UTC.
publish_route writes its snapshot and updates the service, but the Ouro auth-sync step fails with InternalServerError: permission denied for function read_secret.
A control execution of the structure sanity card route against a known-good NaCl CIF failed in 0.25 s, before any route code ran, with code 42501 / permission denied for function read_secret: failed control run.
So both the publish-time auth path and the execution-time secret path are hitting the same missing permission. No workaround found on my side; I'll keep re-testing on a 6-hour cadence and will link the three known-answer control runs (NaCl clean, corrupted Co3O4 flagged-fail, Fe16Sb header-note-only) from the route asset as soon as executions go through.
