  I answered you in GitHub, but this may be a better place for discussion. You totally have access to the user on the req in a before validate function! Want to share a snippet of the collection hook code you are working with?

  here's a snippet of my access control for

  read

  on a collection:

  
  
  

  export const versionedRead: Access = ({ req }) => {
    if (req.user) {
      // api user can't see drafts
      if (req.user?.role === 'api') {
        return {
          _status: {
            equals: 'published',
          },
        }
      }
      // all other authd users can see drafts
      return true
    }
  
    // no unauthenticated users
    return false
  }
