Answer 1

if you use rails > 5.0, you can do below

add a module in models/concern

module Current
  thread_mattr_accessor :actor
end

in applicaton_controller do

around_action :set_thread_current_actor

  private

  def set_thread_current_actor
    Current.actor = current_user
    yield
  ensure
    # to address the thread variable leak issues in Puma/Thin webserver
    Current.actor = nil
  end

then in thread anywhere get current_user

Current.actor
