fix(serve): enable Host/Origin protection on the --http MCP server

[spartan8806]

Small hardening for the opt-in HTTP mode. serve --http starts a FastMCP streamable-http server on 127.0.0.1:5555, but FastMCP's host_origin_protection defaults to off — so the endpoint accepts requests from any Origin. A web page the user visits could reach the loopback port via DNS rebinding and drive the MCP tools (which read the codebase).

This passes host_origin_protection="auto" so FastMCP validates Host/Origin for the loopback-bound server. Verified locally: a foreign Origin now gets 403 Forbidden Origin, while non-browser clients (no Origin header) and same-origin requests keep working. Default stdio transport is unaffected.

Low impact — opt-in --http, read-only tools, requires rebinding — but a cheap defense-in-depth. Hope it's useful! 🙂

Checklist

• Tests added for new functionality — test_main.py asserts the kwarg is passed
• All tests pass: uv run pytest — 3 passed (serve-transport tests)
• Linting passes: uv run ruff check — All checks passed
• Type checking passes: uv run mypy — Success, no issues
• Lines ≤ 100 characters
• Docs updated — module docstring notes the origin protection

This currently crashes before the HTTP server starts. The locked FastMCP 3.2.4 run_http_async signature does not accept host_origin_protection; binding that keyword raises TypeError: unexpected keyword argument. The mock-only test cannot catch the production failure. Please use a supported middleware/server configuration or intentionally upgrade FastMCP, then test foreign Origin rejection plus same-Origin and no-Origin clients end to end.

[spartan8806]

You're right, and thanks for catching it. I confirmed it against the locked FastMCP 3.2.4: run_http_async takes no **kwargs and has no host_origin_protection parameter — that setting doesn't exist anywhere in 3.2.4 — so mcp.run(...) forwarded it through and raised TypeError: TransportMixin.run_http_async() got an unexpected keyword argument 'host_origin_protection' before the server started. My test mocked mcp.run and asserted the kwargs, so it passed while the real path was broken, exactly as you described. That one's on me — the "verified locally" line in the description did not hold against the pinned version.

I've replaced it with a supported configuration on 3.2.4, with no dependency change.

What changed

• New code_review_graph/http_origin_guard.py — a small pure-ASGI middleware passed via run_http_async's supported middleware=[...] parameter. Pure ASGI rather than BaseHTTPMiddleware because streamable-http holds long-lived streaming/SSE responses open, which BaseHTTPMiddleware interferes with.
• It rejects requests whose Host isn't the loopback endpoint — that is what actually stops DNS rebinding, since the rebound request carries the attacker's hostname — and rejects a present Origin that isn't the loopback endpoint. An absent Origin is allowed, since non-browser MCP clients don't send one.
• The guard only engages for a loopback bind. --host 0.0.0.0 is an explicit decision to expose the endpoint, where your own hostnames are legitimate, so it passes through untouched.

Tests

End-to-end against the real FastMCP ASGI app (mcp.http_app(middleware=...), which is exactly what run_http_async builds), not mocks:

Request	Result
Foreign Origin (http and https)	403
Same-origin Origin, and http://localhost:5555	not blocked
No Origin at all (ordinary MCP client)	not blocked
Rebound Host (evil.example, with and without port)	403
Origin on the wrong port / non-http scheme	403

There is also a signature-contract test that binds the kwargs the entry point passes against the real FastMCP.run_http_async signature. I verified it fails on the previous patch (TypeError: unexpected keyword argument 'host_origin_protection') and passes on this one, so a keyword the pinned FastMCP doesn't accept can't slip past a mock again.

Checks on the locked toolchain

• ruff check code_review_graph/ — all checks passed
• mypy code_review_graph/ --ignore-missing-imports --no-strict-optional — no issues
• pytest tests/test_http_origin_guard.py tests/test_main.py — 48 passed

On the full suite I see 18 failures locally (Julia/HCL parser reconciliation, and the symlink / file-mode tests), but they reproduce identically with this change stashed, so they're pre-existing on my Windows environment rather than anything this PR touches.

Happy to narrow the scope or drop it entirely if you'd rather not carry the middleware.
