Add AI agent detection conditional authentication templates - #8366
Conversation
Add two built-in adaptive authentication templates under a new "AI Agents" category that identify AI agents through Web Bot Auth (the Signature-Agent and Signature-Input headers that agents such as ChatGPT agent send): - AI-Agent-Blocking denies sign-in to detected agents. Browser flows get an error page via sendError; API-based (app-native) flows use fail() so the client receives an authentication failure. - AI-Agent-Human-in-the-Loop requires a passkey step when an agent is detected, so a human has to complete the sign-in.

Explanation
Issue
#28639requires two built-in templates in a new AI Agents category. The PR adds both templates and registers category AIAgents with order 5. The blocking template uses sendError for non-direct requests and fail with access_denied for response_mode=direct. The human-in-the-loop template runs step 1 and runs FIDOAuthenticator as step 2 when detection succeeds. Both templates support Signature-Agent and an exact tag="web-bot-auth" parameter in Signature-Input. Both templates expose detectAgent() for administrator extension. The issue's guide and checklist are documentation or administrative work, not coding requirements for this assessment.

Explanation
The reviewed changes are limited to the two AI-agent authentication templates and the category registration. The scripts, default authenticators, detection logic, and user-facing template metadata directly implement issue
#28639. The empty helpLink is consistent with the stated documentation follow-up. No unrelated code or configuration change is present in the reviewed diff.

Explanation
The description explains the templates, detection logic, behavior, testing, linked issue, documentation dependency, and follow-up work. However, it does not follow the repository template and omits several required sections, including explicit goals, user stories, release note, documentation status, security checks, test environment, training, certification, marketing, samples, migrations, and learning.
Resolution
Retain the existing technical details, then add the repository template sections and complete each applicable section. Mark non-applicable sections as N/A with a brief reason. Include explicit goals, user stories, release-note text, documentation status and docs PR link, security-check results, test environment details, automation-test coverage, and migration impact.

- Line 59: Update the authentication check using signatureInput so it matches
the Signature-Input tag parameter’s exact value of web-bot-auth, rather than
detecting that text as a substring; preserve the existing Signature-Agent check
and only block when either condition is explicitly present.

@features/application-mgt/org.wso2.carbon.identity.application.mgt.server.feature/resources/identity/authenticationTemplates/aiAgentHumanInTheLoop.json:
- Line 65: Update the agent-detection expression in the authentication template
to match the Signature-Input tag parameter exactly as tag="web-bot-auth", rather
than matching any occurrence of web-bot-auth text; preserve the existing
signature-agent header check.

Detect Signature-Input only when it carries the tag="web-bot-auth" parameter, instead of any occurrence of the text (for example in a nonce, keyid or a different tag value). The Signature-Agent check is unchanged. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5.5 <noreply@anthropic.com>

Proposed changes in this pull request
Resolves wso2/product-is#28639
Adds two built-in conditional authentication (adaptive script) templates for AI agents, in a new AI Agents category of the script editor:
aiAgentBlocking.json): denies sign-in when the request comes from an AI agent. Browser flows get an error page throughsendError. API-based (app-native) flows (response_mode=direct) usefail(), so the client receives an authentication failure instead of an empty authenticator prompt.aiAgentHumanInTheLoop.json): runs the first login step, then requires a human-only verification step (passkey by default) when an AI agent is detected.categories.json: newAIAgentscategory (order 5).Both templates identify agents through Web Bot Auth (HTTP Message Signatures, draft-ietf-webbotauth-httpsig-protocol).
detectAgent(context)returns true when the request carries aSignature-Agentheader, or aSignature-Inputheader withtag="web-bot-auth". Admins can extenddetectAgent()with other identification methods, which are described in the docs.No loader or packaging changes are needed.
p2.infalready copies the wholeauthenticationTemplatesfolder, andloadAuthenticationTemplates()picks up new files and categories.Testing (on a 7.4.0-SNAPSHOT pack):
GET /api/server/v1/applications/meta/adaptive-auth-templateslists the AI Agents category with both templates. Applying each template sets up the expected steps./oauth2/authorizewith the error page (browser), or withABA-60002(app-native)./oauth2/authorize, and its signatures verified againsthttps://chatgpt.com/.well-known/http-message-signatures-directory.When should this PR be merged
Together with the docs PR wso2/docs-is#6370.
