* Pleroma supports hierarchical OAuth scopes, just like Mastodon but with added granularity of admin scopes. For a reference, see [Mastodon OAuth scopes](https://docs.joinmastodon.org/api/oauth-scopes/).
-* It is important to either define OAuth scope restrictions or explicitly mark OAuth scope check as skipped, for every controller action. To define scopes, call `plug(Pleroma.Plugs.OAuthScopesPlug, %{scopes: [...]})`. To explicitly set OAuth scopes check skipped, call `plug(:skip_plug, Pleroma.Plugs.OAuthScopesPlug <when ...>)`.

* In controllers, `use Pleroma.Web, :controller` will result in `action/2` (see `Pleroma.Web.controller/0` for definition) be called prior to actual controller action, and it'll perform security / privacy checks before passing control to actual controller action.

## [HTTP Basic Authentication](https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/HTTP/Headers/Authorization)
-* With HTTP Basic Auth, OAuth scopes check is _not_ performed for any action (since password is provided during the auth, requester is able to obtain a token with full permissions anyways). `Pleroma.Plugs.AuthenticationPlug` and `Pleroma.Plugs.LegacyAuthenticationPlug` both call `Pleroma.Plugs.OAuthScopesPlug.skip_plug(conn)` when password is provided.

+## MRF policies descriptions
+
+If MRF policy depends on config, it can be added into MRF tab to adminFE by adding `config_description/0` method, which returns map with special structure.
+
+Example:
+
+```elixir
+%{
+ key: :mrf_activity_expiration,
+ related_policy: "Pleroma.Web.ActivityPub.MRF.ActivityExpirationPolicy",
+ label: "MRF Activity Expiration Policy",
+ description: "Adds automatic expiration to all local activities",
+ children: [
+ %{
+ key: :days,
+ type: :integer,
+ description: "Default global expiration time for all local activities (in days)",
+ suggestions: [90, 365]
+ }
+ ]
+ }
