OpenFGA authorization logic belongs within specific hexagonal architecture boundaries, strictly separating where permission checks should and should not reside across API, Application, Infrastructure, and Domain layers to prevent security misconfigurations.

To add new permissions and modify OpenFGA tuple writes in Freetool, you must apply authorization logic within the correct architectural modules. This involves using specific F# code snippets to implement role-based access control checks and tuple writes according to team conventions.

Reviewing an OpenFGA authorization design in Freetool involves checking the placement of permission logic against hexagonal architecture boundaries. You evaluate API, Application, Infrastructure, and Domain layers to ensure correct integration and adherence to team conventions using real code samples.

Freetool's OpenFGA integration supports role-based access control, but authorization logic must not be spread evenly. Correct implementation restricts permission checks and tuple writes to designated layers within the hexagonal architecture to maintain security and system maintainability.

Placing OpenFGA permission checks in the wrong architectural layer causes security issues by breaking the hexagonal boundary separation. This misconfiguration leads to unauthorized access paths and unmaintainable permission systems, which is why Freetool enforces strict module placement.
