feat: Enhance AuthZEN demo with mock PDP server and new flags

RazcoDev · RazcoDev · commit 9695b5bca545 · 2025-07-15T11:08:17.000+03:00
- Added `mock_pdp` and `no_mock_pdp` flags for local testing with a mock PDP server.
- Implemented realistic authorization policies in the mock server for testing.
- Updated `Args` struct to include flags for mock PDP usage.
- Enhanced README with mock PDP details and usage instructions.
- Improved demo output to focus on authorization decisions without actual SLIM operations.

This update provides a more user-friendly experience for testing AuthZEN authorization scenarios.

+## Mock PDP Server
+
+The example includes a built-in mock AuthZEN PDP server for realistic testing without requiring an external policy engine. The mock PDP implements these policies:
+
+### 📋 Mock Policies
+- **Same-Organization Routes**: ✅ Allow route creation between agents in the same organization (`cisco`)
+- **Cross-Organization Routes**: ❌ Deny routes to external organizations (`external`, etc.)
+- **Message Publishing**: ✅ Allow normal message publishing within organization
+- **Subscriptions**: ✅ Allow subscriptions within the same organization
+- **Default Policy**: ✅ Allow other operations (for demo purposes)
+
+### 🎛️ Mock PDP Controls
+- `--mock-pdp` (default): Use local mock PDP with realistic policies
+- `--no-mock-pdp`: Connect to real PDP at `--pdp-endpoint`
+- `--fail-closed`: Test security-first behavior (deny when PDP unavailable)
+
+The mock PDP demonstrates how AuthZEN policies can enforce fine-grained access control beyond simple JWT claims, showing realistic organizational boundaries and operation restrictions.
