hermes: add a fail-closed full-handoff acceptance harness
Decides whether the Hermes platform handoff is fit to release, and refuses
to round an absence of evidence up to a pass.
The harness is read-only by default and classifies 71 checks PASS / FAIL /
NOT_RUN / NOT_APPLICABLE. Any mandatory FAIL or NOT_RUN is NO_GO, and so is a
harness-level problem: an unreachable vantage, a catalog entry whose evidence
no longer exists, an expired deadline, or an evaluator that raised.
Evidence comes from two vantages that cannot cover for each other: an external
read-only operator kubeconfig, and the Hermes agent probing itself from inside
its own pod. Before any check runs, the harness asks each vantage who it is and
stops if they are the same principal, because dual-vantage evidence from one
identity is a restatement rather than a corroboration. `--as` is rejected for
every operator-side command and reachable only as the inner command of a
`kubectl exec`, so impersonation can never stand in for a real self-probe. A
deny check needs a live refused request, not only an authorization review.
Two safety properties are structural rather than conventional, enforced where
an argv becomes a subprocess: the default mode mutates nothing (mutating verbs
require a server dry run; there is deliberately no live TokenRequest probe,
because a successful one would mint a real credential), and no probe can pull a
credential value into a report (no vault/sops/curl, secrets readable only with
-o name, environment probes list names, shell only through frozen reviewed
templates). Captures are bounded before they are screened, and the rendered
report is re-screened before it is written.
Mutation lives behind a separate arming flag with an exact confirmation phrase,
a caller-supplied unique ref, a preflight that refuses a protected push target
before any network call, and a cleanup whose verification is itself mandatory.
A default run reports those four checks NOT_RUN.
The catalog is declarative so a reviewer reads what is asserted rather than how
it is plumbed, and so structural properties can be proven over every entry
before a run. Catalog drift surfaces as NOT_RUN, which stops the release.
docs/hermes_full_handoff_acceptance.md carries the merge order for PRs #14-#18
on top of the merged #13 baseline, the image build and Flux rollout, the
rollback point for each step, the go/no-go checklist, and the limits that are
asserted rather than exercised.
Validation: 295 handoff tests pass with 100% line coverage on all 15 new
modules; the full unit suite is 647 passed with two failures that reproduce
unchanged on origin/main; Ruff, py_compile, kustomize render, and a diff
credential screen are clean; a live read-only run against Atlas returns NO_GO
for the pre-merge cluster with no unscreened fields in the report.

fix(hermes): close the zero-evidence fail-open in absence checks
evaluate_names_absent returned PASS when its step exited 0 with no output,
so five mandatory checks - the ones asserting that provider API keys, forge
credentials, a cluster-admin binding, and shared coordinator state are
absent - could report a pass on no evidence and turn a NO_GO into a GO.
Both name rules now resolve their step through one guard in _line_step, so
zero observations are NOT_RUN. Regressions pin all five real catalog specs
plus both reachable silence paths: a POSIX pipeline whose status comes from
its last stage, and a drifted kubectl -o jsonpath. The pool claim projection
emits one <volume>=<claim> line per template volume so a volume without a
PVC still counts as an observation rather than reading as drift.
Also closes the review's reachable hardening and evidence defects:
- pin Gitea paths to atlas/titan-iac on an exact segment boundary and
reject relative segments, including percent-encoded ones
- forbid impersonation structurally in every mode and vantage; the inner
command of kubectl exec is re-checked rather than exempted, and
validate_catalog no longer guards only the operator vantage
- drop flux and helm from the binary allowlist; they had no pinned release
digest, so no allowlisted binary can now be admitted that the executor
would refuse to attest
- remove the inert --concurrency and --expect-telegram-sessions flags and
the dead concurrency bound; Telegram continuity stays mandatory
- read the ephemeral pull index page by page, treat the create response as
an authoritative source for the pull number, close every number either
source names, and surface residue_ref plus exact manual_cleanup commands
when creation is uncertain
- keep executable_path and executable_sha256 on unrecorded bulk-evidence
steps so withholding bytes never withholds binary attestation
- revert the repo-wide hygiene legacy-exception mechanism; the contract
change here is purely additive and the four pre-existing over-cap files
are left to the canonical contract change in PR #14/#15
- correct the runbook ruff format scope so the documented command passes
Split hermes_handoff_arming.py out of hermes_handoff_ephemeral.py to keep
both modules under the 500-line cap. All 16 handoff modules hold at least
95% line and branch coverage; the mutation gate is 13/13.

hermes: source handoff forge evidence through the scm broker
The acceptance harness pinned a forge client that has never existed in any
commit or pod (/opt/coordinator/gitea_api.py, digest f0943db4..., GIT/POST
grammar, an askpass helper). Every Gitea-backed check was therefore
unrunnable as merged. Point the harness at the credential-isolated SCM
broker client that actually ships in the agent pod.
- policy: GITEA_CLIENT=/opt/scm/gitea_api.py; trust /opt/scm/ instead of
the phantom /opt/coordinator/; admit the client's real grammar
(`read <api-path>`, exactly one path) with the same atlas/titan-iac pin
and dot-segment rejection; bare HTTP methods are refused in every mode.
The armed POST/PATCH/DELETE windows remain but are documented as
deferred: the deployed client cannot execute them.
- exec: pin the client digest to the sha256 of
services/hermes/scm-common/scripts/gitea_api.py — the exact file the
hermes-scm-boundary-v2 ConfigMap mounts at /opt/scm/gitea_api.py — so
the pin is derivable from merged source and equal to the deployed
client. gitea_api.py gains a narrow /api/v1/user identity read in
_authorize_read (see below), so the pin is the NEW source hash
76efd16dedbeb74425b12fbbdbfaa391854771292077e0463bf22706855ae6dc.
Drop the dangling GIT_ASKPASS (no helper exists; broker git needs
none) and swap /opt/coordinator for /opt/scm in SAFE_PATH.
- checks: all forge/baseline/lineage probes use (client, "read", path).
The SELF-vantage identity checks now truthfully assert the *broker's*
forge identity (the only one the platform can exercise) is not an
administrator and holds push-scoped, non-administrative repository
authority; the administrative-route check asserts the broker read
allowlist's live refusal of branch_protections. The remote-main step
keeps `origin` (the broker remote exists only in pool workspaces and
the broker origin is cluster-local); its rationale now tells the
operator to ensure origin fetchability.
- gitea_api.py/_authorize_read: allow exactly `/api/v1/user` (no query,
no sibling routes) as operation "identity" so the harness can prove
the broker identity is not an administrator. The broker imports the
same module, so one reviewed edit covers both sides of the boundary.
- rules: DENIAL_MARKERS now match the client's real refusal lines
("SCM broker request failed with HTTP 400/403" and the no-credential
rejection) and drop "gitea api returned http 403", which the client
never emits; a broker 404 is deliberately not denial evidence.
- ephemeral: index/verification reads use the real grammar; manual
cleanup guidance now says close/delete require operator forge
credentials (the client exposes no mutation besides create-draft);
armed mode is documented as deferred until the probes are rebuilt on
the broker's bounded mutation surface.
- docs: broker vantage/evidence section, operator prerequisites (broker
healthy, no /vault/secrets/gitea-token anywhere on the harness path,
current ConfigMap mount, operator-side client + origin fetchability),
armed-mode deferral.
- tests: read-grammar accepted / GET refused in every mode, /opt/scm
attestation pin proven equal to the merged source digest, real
denial-marker matching, /api/v1/user identity route bounds; the
repository-pin mutant probe speaks the new grammar. Full handoff +
gitea + broker families pass (952 tests), mutation gate 13/13, per-file
line+branch coverage >=95%, all touched sources within the 500-line cap.

Armed mode is currently deferred: the deployed broker client speaks only
|
|
|
|
|
``read`` and ``create-draft``, so the POST/PATCH/DELETE probes below cannot
|
|
|
|
|
execute against the live platform and fail closed at the client. They will be
|
|
|
|
|
rebuilt on the broker's bounded mutation surface before armed mode is taken up.

Evidence comes from two vantages that cannot cover for each other: an external

stops if they are the same principal, because dual-vantage evidence from one

Two safety properties are structural rather than conventional, enforced where
an argv becomes a subprocess: the default mode mutates nothing (mutating verbs
require a server dry run; there is deliberately no live TokenRequest probe,
because a successful one would mint a real credential), and no probe can pull a
credential value into a report (no vault/sops/curl, secrets readable only with
-o name, environment probes list names, shell only through frozen reviewed
templates). Captures are bounded before they are screened, and the rendered
report is re-screened before it is written.
Mutation lives behind a separate arming flag with an exact confirmation phrase,
a caller-supplied unique ref, a preflight that refuses a protected push target

A default run reports those four checks NOT_RUN.
The catalog is declarative so a reviewer reads what is asserted rather than how

hermes: add a fail-closed full-handoff acceptance harness
Decides whether the Hermes platform handoff is fit to release, and refuses
to round an absence of evidence up to a pass.
The harness is read-only by default and classifies 71 checks PASS / FAIL /
NOT_RUN / NOT_APPLICABLE. Any mandatory FAIL or NOT_RUN is NO_GO, and so is a
harness-level problem: an unreachable vantage, a catalog entry whose evidence
no longer exists, an expired deadline, or an evaluator that raised.
Evidence comes from two vantages that cannot cover for each other: an external
read-only operator kubeconfig, and the Hermes agent probing itself from inside
its own pod. Before any check runs, the harness asks each vantage who it is and
stops if they are the same principal, because dual-vantage evidence from one
identity is a restatement rather than a corroboration. `--as` is rejected for
every operator-side command and reachable only as the inner command of a
`kubectl exec`, so impersonation can never stand in for a real self-probe. A
deny check needs a live refused request, not only an authorization review.
Two safety properties are structural rather than conventional, enforced where
an argv becomes a subprocess: the default mode mutates nothing (mutating verbs
require a server dry run; there is deliberately no live TokenRequest probe,
because a successful one would mint a real credential), and no probe can pull a
credential value into a report (no vault/sops/curl, secrets readable only with
-o name, environment probes list names, shell only through frozen reviewed
templates). Captures are bounded before they are screened, and the rendered
report is re-screened before it is written.
Mutation lives behind a separate arming flag with an exact confirmation phrase,
a caller-supplied unique ref, a preflight that refuses a protected push target
before any network call, and a cleanup whose verification is itself mandatory.
A default run reports those four checks NOT_RUN.
The catalog is declarative so a reviewer reads what is asserted rather than how
it is plumbed, and so structural properties can be proven over every entry
before a run. Catalog drift surfaces as NOT_RUN, which stops the release.
docs/hermes_full_handoff_acceptance.md carries the merge order for PRs #14-#18
on top of the merged #13 baseline, the image build and Flux rollout, the
rollback point for each step, the go/no-go checklist, and the limits that are
asserted rather than exercised.
Validation: 295 handoff tests pass with 100% line coverage on all 15 new
modules; the full unit suite is 647 passed with two failures that reproduce
unchanged on origin/main; Ruff, py_compile, kustomize render, and a diff
credential screen are clean; a live read-only run against Atlas returns NO_GO
for the pre-merge cluster with no unscreened fields in the report.

fix(hermes): close the zero-evidence fail-open in absence checks
evaluate_names_absent returned PASS when its step exited 0 with no output,
so five mandatory checks - the ones asserting that provider API keys, forge
credentials, a cluster-admin binding, and shared coordinator state are
absent - could report a pass on no evidence and turn a NO_GO into a GO.
Both name rules now resolve their step through one guard in _line_step, so
zero observations are NOT_RUN. Regressions pin all five real catalog specs
plus both reachable silence paths: a POSIX pipeline whose status comes from
its last stage, and a drifted kubectl -o jsonpath. The pool claim projection
emits one <volume>=<claim> line per template volume so a volume without a
PVC still counts as an observation rather than reading as drift.
Also closes the review's reachable hardening and evidence defects:
- pin Gitea paths to atlas/titan-iac on an exact segment boundary and
reject relative segments, including percent-encoded ones
- forbid impersonation structurally in every mode and vantage; the inner
command of kubectl exec is re-checked rather than exempted, and
validate_catalog no longer guards only the operator vantage
- drop flux and helm from the binary allowlist; they had no pinned release
digest, so no allowlisted binary can now be admitted that the executor
would refuse to attest
- remove the inert --concurrency and --expect-telegram-sessions flags and
the dead concurrency bound; Telegram continuity stays mandatory
- read the ephemeral pull index page by page, treat the create response as
an authoritative source for the pull number, close every number either
source names, and surface residue_ref plus exact manual_cleanup commands
when creation is uncertain
- keep executable_path and executable_sha256 on unrecorded bulk-evidence
steps so withholding bytes never withholds binary attestation
- revert the repo-wide hygiene legacy-exception mechanism; the contract
change here is purely additive and the four pre-existing over-cap files
are left to the canonical contract change in PR #14/#15
- correct the runbook ruff format scope so the documented command passes
Split hermes_handoff_arming.py out of hermes_handoff_ephemeral.py to keep
both modules under the 500-line cap. All 16 handoff modules hold at least
95% line and branch coverage; the mutation gate is 13/13.

fix(hermes): close the zero-evidence fail-open in absence checks
evaluate_names_absent returned PASS when its step exited 0 with no output,
so five mandatory checks - the ones asserting that provider API keys, forge
credentials, a cluster-admin binding, and shared coordinator state are
absent - could report a pass on no evidence and turn a NO_GO into a GO.
Both name rules now resolve their step through one guard in _line_step, so
zero observations are NOT_RUN. Regressions pin all five real catalog specs
plus both reachable silence paths: a POSIX pipeline whose status comes from
its last stage, and a drifted kubectl -o jsonpath. The pool claim projection
emits one <volume>=<claim> line per template volume so a volume without a
PVC still counts as an observation rather than reading as drift.
Also closes the review's reachable hardening and evidence defects:
- pin Gitea paths to atlas/titan-iac on an exact segment boundary and
reject relative segments, including percent-encoded ones
- forbid impersonation structurally in every mode and vantage; the inner
command of kubectl exec is re-checked rather than exempted, and
validate_catalog no longer guards only the operator vantage
- drop flux and helm from the binary allowlist; they had no pinned release
digest, so no allowlisted binary can now be admitted that the executor
would refuse to attest
- remove the inert --concurrency and --expect-telegram-sessions flags and
the dead concurrency bound; Telegram continuity stays mandatory
- read the ephemeral pull index page by page, treat the create response as
an authoritative source for the pull number, close every number either
source names, and surface residue_ref plus exact manual_cleanup commands
when creation is uncertain
- keep executable_path and executable_sha256 on unrecorded bulk-evidence
steps so withholding bytes never withholds binary attestation
- revert the repo-wide hygiene legacy-exception mechanism; the contract
change here is purely additive and the four pre-existing over-cap files
are left to the canonical contract change in PR #14/#15
- correct the runbook ruff format scope so the documented command passes
Split hermes_handoff_arming.py out of hermes_handoff_ephemeral.py to keep
both modules under the 500-line cap. All 16 handoff modules hold at least
95% line and branch coverage; the mutation gate is 13/13.

hermes: source handoff forge evidence through the scm broker
The acceptance harness pinned a forge client that has never existed in any
commit or pod (/opt/coordinator/gitea_api.py, digest f0943db4..., GIT/POST
grammar, an askpass helper). Every Gitea-backed check was therefore
unrunnable as merged. Point the harness at the credential-isolated SCM
broker client that actually ships in the agent pod.
- policy: GITEA_CLIENT=/opt/scm/gitea_api.py; trust /opt/scm/ instead of
the phantom /opt/coordinator/; admit the client's real grammar
(`read <api-path>`, exactly one path) with the same atlas/titan-iac pin
and dot-segment rejection; bare HTTP methods are refused in every mode.
The armed POST/PATCH/DELETE windows remain but are documented as
deferred: the deployed client cannot execute them.
- exec: pin the client digest to the sha256 of
services/hermes/scm-common/scripts/gitea_api.py — the exact file the
hermes-scm-boundary-v2 ConfigMap mounts at /opt/scm/gitea_api.py — so
the pin is derivable from merged source and equal to the deployed
client. gitea_api.py gains a narrow /api/v1/user identity read in
_authorize_read (see below), so the pin is the NEW source hash
76efd16dedbeb74425b12fbbdbfaa391854771292077e0463bf22706855ae6dc.
Drop the dangling GIT_ASKPASS (no helper exists; broker git needs
none) and swap /opt/coordinator for /opt/scm in SAFE_PATH.
- checks: all forge/baseline/lineage probes use (client, "read", path).
The SELF-vantage identity checks now truthfully assert the *broker's*
forge identity (the only one the platform can exercise) is not an
administrator and holds push-scoped, non-administrative repository
authority; the administrative-route check asserts the broker read
allowlist's live refusal of branch_protections. The remote-main step
keeps `origin` (the broker remote exists only in pool workspaces and
the broker origin is cluster-local); its rationale now tells the
operator to ensure origin fetchability.
- gitea_api.py/_authorize_read: allow exactly `/api/v1/user` (no query,
no sibling routes) as operation "identity" so the harness can prove
the broker identity is not an administrator. The broker imports the
same module, so one reviewed edit covers both sides of the boundary.
- rules: DENIAL_MARKERS now match the client's real refusal lines
("SCM broker request failed with HTTP 400/403" and the no-credential
rejection) and drop "gitea api returned http 403", which the client
never emits; a broker 404 is deliberately not denial evidence.
- ephemeral: index/verification reads use the real grammar; manual
cleanup guidance now says close/delete require operator forge
credentials (the client exposes no mutation besides create-draft);
armed mode is documented as deferred until the probes are rebuilt on
the broker's bounded mutation surface.
- docs: broker vantage/evidence section, operator prerequisites (broker
healthy, no /vault/secrets/gitea-token anywhere on the harness path,
current ConfigMap mount, operator-side client + origin fetchability),
armed-mode deferral.
- tests: read-grammar accepted / GET refused in every mode, /opt/scm
attestation pin proven equal to the merged source digest, real
denial-marker matching, /api/v1/user identity route bounds; the
repository-pin mutant probe speaks the new grammar. Full handoff +
gitea + broker families pass (952 tests), mutation gate 13/13, per-file
line+branch coverage >=95%, all touched sources within the 500-line cap.

fix(hermes): close the zero-evidence fail-open in absence checks
evaluate_names_absent returned PASS when its step exited 0 with no output,
so five mandatory checks - the ones asserting that provider API keys, forge
credentials, a cluster-admin binding, and shared coordinator state are
absent - could report a pass on no evidence and turn a NO_GO into a GO.
Both name rules now resolve their step through one guard in _line_step, so
zero observations are NOT_RUN. Regressions pin all five real catalog specs
plus both reachable silence paths: a POSIX pipeline whose status comes from
its last stage, and a drifted kubectl -o jsonpath. The pool claim projection
emits one <volume>=<claim> line per template volume so a volume without a
PVC still counts as an observation rather than reading as drift.
Also closes the review's reachable hardening and evidence defects:
- pin Gitea paths to atlas/titan-iac on an exact segment boundary and
reject relative segments, including percent-encoded ones
- forbid impersonation structurally in every mode and vantage; the inner
command of kubectl exec is re-checked rather than exempted, and
validate_catalog no longer guards only the operator vantage
- drop flux and helm from the binary allowlist; they had no pinned release
digest, so no allowlisted binary can now be admitted that the executor
would refuse to attest
- remove the inert --concurrency and --expect-telegram-sessions flags and
the dead concurrency bound; Telegram continuity stays mandatory
- read the ephemeral pull index page by page, treat the create response as
an authoritative source for the pull number, close every number either
source names, and surface residue_ref plus exact manual_cleanup commands
when creation is uncertain
- keep executable_path and executable_sha256 on unrecorded bulk-evidence
steps so withholding bytes never withholds binary attestation
- revert the repo-wide hygiene legacy-exception mechanism; the contract
change here is purely additive and the four pre-existing over-cap files
are left to the canonical contract change in PR #14/#15
- correct the runbook ruff format scope so the documented command passes

hermes: source handoff forge evidence through the scm broker
The acceptance harness pinned a forge client that has never existed in any
commit or pod (/opt/coordinator/gitea_api.py, digest f0943db4..., GIT/POST
grammar, an askpass helper). Every Gitea-backed check was therefore
unrunnable as merged. Point the harness at the credential-isolated SCM
broker client that actually ships in the agent pod.
- policy: GITEA_CLIENT=/opt/scm/gitea_api.py; trust /opt/scm/ instead of
the phantom /opt/coordinator/; admit the client's real grammar
(`read <api-path>`, exactly one path) with the same atlas/titan-iac pin
and dot-segment rejection; bare HTTP methods are refused in every mode.
The armed POST/PATCH/DELETE windows remain but are documented as
deferred: the deployed client cannot execute them.
- exec: pin the client digest to the sha256 of
services/hermes/scm-common/scripts/gitea_api.py — the exact file the
hermes-scm-boundary-v2 ConfigMap mounts at /opt/scm/gitea_api.py — so
the pin is derivable from merged source and equal to the deployed
client. gitea_api.py gains a narrow /api/v1/user identity read in
_authorize_read (see below), so the pin is the NEW source hash
76efd16dedbeb74425b12fbbdbfaa391854771292077e0463bf22706855ae6dc.
Drop the dangling GIT_ASKPASS (no helper exists; broker git needs
none) and swap /opt/coordinator for /opt/scm in SAFE_PATH.
- checks: all forge/baseline/lineage probes use (client, "read", path).
The SELF-vantage identity checks now truthfully assert the *broker's*
forge identity (the only one the platform can exercise) is not an
administrator and holds push-scoped, non-administrative repository
authority; the administrative-route check asserts the broker read
allowlist's live refusal of branch_protections. The remote-main step
keeps `origin` (the broker remote exists only in pool workspaces and
the broker origin is cluster-local); its rationale now tells the
operator to ensure origin fetchability.
- gitea_api.py/_authorize_read: allow exactly `/api/v1/user` (no query,
no sibling routes) as operation "identity" so the harness can prove
the broker identity is not an administrator. The broker imports the
same module, so one reviewed edit covers both sides of the boundary.
- rules: DENIAL_MARKERS now match the client's real refusal lines
("SCM broker request failed with HTTP 400/403" and the no-credential
rejection) and drop "gitea api returned http 403", which the client
never emits; a broker 404 is deliberately not denial evidence.

hermes: add a fail-closed full-handoff acceptance harness
Decides whether the Hermes platform handoff is fit to release, and refuses
to round an absence of evidence up to a pass.
The harness is read-only by default and classifies 71 checks PASS / FAIL /
NOT_RUN / NOT_APPLICABLE. Any mandatory FAIL or NOT_RUN is NO_GO, and so is a
harness-level problem: an unreachable vantage, a catalog entry whose evidence
no longer exists, an expired deadline, or an evaluator that raised.
Evidence comes from two vantages that cannot cover for each other: an external
read-only operator kubeconfig, and the Hermes agent probing itself from inside
its own pod. Before any check runs, the harness asks each vantage who it is and
stops if they are the same principal, because dual-vantage evidence from one
identity is a restatement rather than a corroboration. `--as` is rejected for
every operator-side command and reachable only as the inner command of a
`kubectl exec`, so impersonation can never stand in for a real self-probe. A
deny check needs a live refused request, not only an authorization review.
Two safety properties are structural rather than conventional, enforced where
an argv becomes a subprocess: the default mode mutates nothing (mutating verbs
require a server dry run; there is deliberately no live TokenRequest probe,
because a successful one would mint a real credential), and no probe can pull a
credential value into a report (no vault/sops/curl, secrets readable only with
-o name, environment probes list names, shell only through frozen reviewed
templates). Captures are bounded before they are screened, and the rendered
report is re-screened before it is written.
Mutation lives behind a separate arming flag with an exact confirmation phrase,
a caller-supplied unique ref, a preflight that refuses a protected push target
before any network call, and a cleanup whose verification is itself mandatory.
A default run reports those four checks NOT_RUN.
The catalog is declarative so a reviewer reads what is asserted rather than how
it is plumbed, and so structural properties can be proven over every entry
before a run. Catalog drift surfaces as NOT_RUN, which stops the release.
docs/hermes_full_handoff_acceptance.md carries the merge order for PRs #14-#18
on top of the merged #13 baseline, the image build and Flux rollout, the
rollback point for each step, the go/no-go checklist, and the limits that are
asserted rather than exercised.
Validation: 295 handoff tests pass with 100% line coverage on all 15 new
modules; the full unit suite is 647 passed with two failures that reproduce
unchanged on origin/main; Ruff, py_compile, kustomize render, and a diff
credential screen are clean; a live read-only run against Atlas returns NO_GO
for the pre-merge cluster with no unscreened fields in the report.

templates). Captures are bounded before they are screened, and the rendered
report is re-screened before it is written.
Mutation lives behind a separate arming flag with an exact confirmation phrase,
a caller-supplied unique ref, a preflight that refuses a protected push target
before any network call, and a cleanup whose verification is itself mandatory.
A default run reports those four checks NOT_RUN.
The catalog is declarative so a reviewer reads what is asserted rather than how
it is plumbed, and so structural properties can be proven over every entry
before a run. Catalog drift surfaces as NOT_RUN, which stops the release.
docs/hermes_full_handoff_acceptance.md carries the merge order for PRs #14-#18
on top of the merged #13 baseline, the image build and Flux rollout, the
rollback point for each step, the go/no-go checklist, and the limits that are
asserted rather than exercised.
Validation: 295 handoff tests pass with 100% line coverage on all 15 new
modules; the full unit suite is 647 passed with two failures that reproduce
unchanged on origin/main; Ruff, py_compile, kustomize render, and a diff
credential screen are clean; a live read-only run against Atlas returns NO_GO
for the pre-merge cluster with no unscreened fields in the report.

hermes: source handoff forge evidence through the scm broker
The acceptance harness pinned a forge client that has never existed in any
commit or pod (/opt/coordinator/gitea_api.py, digest f0943db4..., GIT/POST
grammar, an askpass helper). Every Gitea-backed check was therefore
unrunnable as merged. Point the harness at the credential-isolated SCM
broker client that actually ships in the agent pod.
- policy: GITEA_CLIENT=/opt/scm/gitea_api.py; trust /opt/scm/ instead of
the phantom /opt/coordinator/; admit the client's real grammar
(`read <api-path>`, exactly one path) with the same atlas/titan-iac pin
and dot-segment rejection; bare HTTP methods are refused in every mode.
The armed POST/PATCH/DELETE windows remain but are documented as
deferred: the deployed client cannot execute them.
- exec: pin the client digest to the sha256 of
services/hermes/scm-common/scripts/gitea_api.py — the exact file the
hermes-scm-boundary-v2 ConfigMap mounts at /opt/scm/gitea_api.py — so
the pin is derivable from merged source and equal to the deployed
client. gitea_api.py gains a narrow /api/v1/user identity read in
_authorize_read (see below), so the pin is the NEW source hash
76efd16dedbeb74425b12fbbdbfaa391854771292077e0463bf22706855ae6dc.
Drop the dangling GIT_ASKPASS (no helper exists; broker git needs
none) and swap /opt/coordinator for /opt/scm in SAFE_PATH.
- checks: all forge/baseline/lineage probes use (client, "read", path).
The SELF-vantage identity checks now truthfully assert the *broker's*
forge identity (the only one the platform can exercise) is not an
administrator and holds push-scoped, non-administrative repository
authority; the administrative-route check asserts the broker read
allowlist's live refusal of branch_protections. The remote-main step
keeps `origin` (the broker remote exists only in pool workspaces and
the broker origin is cluster-local); its rationale now tells the
operator to ensure origin fetchability.
- gitea_api.py/_authorize_read: allow exactly `/api/v1/user` (no query,
no sibling routes) as operation "identity" so the harness can prove
the broker identity is not an administrator. The broker imports the
same module, so one reviewed edit covers both sides of the boundary.
- rules: DENIAL_MARKERS now match the client's real refusal lines
("SCM broker request failed with HTTP 400/403" and the no-credential
rejection) and drop "gitea api returned http 403", which the client
never emits; a broker 404 is deliberately not denial evidence.
- ephemeral: index/verification reads use the real grammar; manual
cleanup guidance now says close/delete require operator forge
credentials (the client exposes no mutation besides create-draft);
armed mode is documented as deferred until the probes are rebuilt on
the broker's bounded mutation surface.
- docs: broker vantage/evidence section, operator prerequisites (broker
healthy, no /vault/secrets/gitea-token anywhere on the harness path,
current ConfigMap mount, operator-side client + origin fetchability),
armed-mode deferral.
- tests: read-grammar accepted / GET refused in every mode, /opt/scm
attestation pin proven equal to the merged source digest, real
denial-marker matching, /api/v1/user identity route bounds; the
repository-pin mutant probe speaks the new grammar. Full handoff +
gitea + broker families pass (952 tests), mutation gate 13/13, per-file
line+branch coverage >=95%, all touched sources within the 500-line cap.

hermes: add a fail-closed full-handoff acceptance harness
Decides whether the Hermes platform handoff is fit to release, and refuses
to round an absence of evidence up to a pass.
The harness is read-only by default and classifies 71 checks PASS / FAIL /
NOT_RUN / NOT_APPLICABLE. Any mandatory FAIL or NOT_RUN is NO_GO, and so is a
harness-level problem: an unreachable vantage, a catalog entry whose evidence
no longer exists, an expired deadline, or an evaluator that raised.
Evidence comes from two vantages that cannot cover for each other: an external
read-only operator kubeconfig, and the Hermes agent probing itself from inside
its own pod. Before any check runs, the harness asks each vantage who it is and
stops if they are the same principal, because dual-vantage evidence from one
identity is a restatement rather than a corroboration. `--as` is rejected for
every operator-side command and reachable only as the inner command of a
`kubectl exec`, so impersonation can never stand in for a real self-probe. A
deny check needs a live refused request, not only an authorization review.
Two safety properties are structural rather than conventional, enforced where
an argv becomes a subprocess: the default mode mutates nothing (mutating verbs
require a server dry run; there is deliberately no live TokenRequest probe,
because a successful one would mint a real credential), and no probe can pull a
credential value into a report (no vault/sops/curl, secrets readable only with
-o name, environment probes list names, shell only through frozen reviewed
templates). Captures are bounded before they are screened, and the rendered
report is re-screened before it is written.
Mutation lives behind a separate arming flag with an exact confirmation phrase,
a caller-supplied unique ref, a preflight that refuses a protected push target
before any network call, and a cleanup whose verification is itself mandatory.
A default run reports those four checks NOT_RUN.
The catalog is declarative so a reviewer reads what is asserted rather than how
it is plumbed, and so structural properties can be proven over every entry
before a run. Catalog drift surfaces as NOT_RUN, which stops the release.
docs/hermes_full_handoff_acceptance.md carries the merge order for PRs #14-#18
on top of the merged #13 baseline, the image build and Flux rollout, the
rollback point for each step, the go/no-go checklist, and the limits that are

unchanged on origin/main; Ruff, py_compile, kustomize render, and a diff

fix(hermes): close the zero-evidence fail-open in absence checks
evaluate_names_absent returned PASS when its step exited 0 with no output,
so five mandatory checks - the ones asserting that provider API keys, forge
credentials, a cluster-admin binding, and shared coordinator state are
absent - could report a pass on no evidence and turn a NO_GO into a GO.
Both name rules now resolve their step through one guard in _line_step, so
zero observations are NOT_RUN. Regressions pin all five real catalog specs
plus both reachable silence paths: a POSIX pipeline whose status comes from
its last stage, and a drifted kubectl -o jsonpath. The pool claim projection
emits one <volume>=<claim> line per template volume so a volume without a
PVC still counts as an observation rather than reading as drift.
Also closes the review's reachable hardening and evidence defects:
- pin Gitea paths to atlas/titan-iac on an exact segment boundary and
reject relative segments, including percent-encoded ones
- forbid impersonation structurally in every mode and vantage; the inner
command of kubectl exec is re-checked rather than exempted, and
validate_catalog no longer guards only the operator vantage
- drop flux and helm from the binary allowlist; they had no pinned release
digest, so no allowlisted binary can now be admitted that the executor
would refuse to attest
- remove the inert --concurrency and --expect-telegram-sessions flags and
the dead concurrency bound; Telegram continuity stays mandatory
- read the ephemeral pull index page by page, treat the create response as
an authoritative source for the pull number, close every number either
source names, and surface residue_ref plus exact manual_cleanup commands
when creation is uncertain
- keep executable_path and executable_sha256 on unrecorded bulk-evidence
steps so withholding bytes never withholds binary attestation
- revert the repo-wide hygiene legacy-exception mechanism; the contract
change here is purely additive and the four pre-existing over-cap files
are left to the canonical contract change in PR #14/#15
- correct the runbook ruff format scope so the documented command passes
Split hermes_handoff_arming.py out of hermes_handoff_ephemeral.py to keep
both modules under the 500-line cap. All 16 handoff modules hold at least
95% line and branch coverage; the mutation gate is 13/13.

read-only operator kubeconfig, and the Hermes agent probing itself from inside
its own pod. Before any check runs, the harness asks each vantage who it is and
stops if they are the same principal, because dual-vantage evidence from one
identity is a restatement rather than a corroboration. `--as` is rejected for
every operator-side command and reachable only as the inner command of a
`kubectl exec`, so impersonation can never stand in for a real self-probe. A
deny check needs a live refused request, not only an authorization review.
Two safety properties are structural rather than conventional, enforced where
an argv becomes a subprocess: the default mode mutates nothing (mutating verbs
require a server dry run; there is deliberately no live TokenRequest probe,
because a successful one would mint a real credential), and no probe can pull a
credential value into a report (no vault/sops/curl, secrets readable only with
-o name, environment probes list names, shell only through frozen reviewed
templates). Captures are bounded before they are screened, and the rendered
report is re-screened before it is written.
Mutation lives behind a separate arming flag with an exact confirmation phrase,
a caller-supplied unique ref, a preflight that refuses a protected push target
before any network call, and a cleanup whose verification is itself mandatory.
A default run reports those four checks NOT_RUN.
The catalog is declarative so a reviewer reads what is asserted rather than how
it is plumbed, and so structural properties can be proven over every entry
before a run. Catalog drift surfaces as NOT_RUN, which stops the release.
docs/hermes_full_handoff_acceptance.md carries the merge order for PRs #14-#18
on top of the merged #13 baseline, the image build and Flux rollout, the
rollback point for each step, the go/no-go checklist, and the limits that are
asserted rather than exercised.
Validation: 295 handoff tests pass with 100% line coverage on all 15 new
modules; the full unit suite is 647 passed with two failures that reproduce
unchanged on origin/main; Ruff, py_compile, kustomize render, and a diff
credential screen are clean; a live read-only run against Atlas returns NO_GO
for the pre-merge cluster with no unscreened fields in the report.

hermes: add a fail-closed full-handoff acceptance harness

fix(hermes): close the zero-evidence fail-open in absence checks
evaluate_names_absent returned PASS when its step exited 0 with no output,
so five mandatory checks - the ones asserting that provider API keys, forge
credentials, a cluster-admin binding, and shared coordinator state are
absent - could report a pass on no evidence and turn a NO_GO into a GO.
Both name rules now resolve their step through one guard in _line_step, so
zero observations are NOT_RUN. Regressions pin all five real catalog specs
plus both reachable silence paths: a POSIX pipeline whose status comes from
its last stage, and a drifted kubectl -o jsonpath. The pool claim projection
emits one <volume>=<claim> line per template volume so a volume without a
PVC still counts as an observation rather than reading as drift.
Also closes the review's reachable hardening and evidence defects:
- pin Gitea paths to atlas/titan-iac on an exact segment boundary and
reject relative segments, including percent-encoded ones
- forbid impersonation structurally in every mode and vantage; the inner
command of kubectl exec is re-checked rather than exempted, and
validate_catalog no longer guards only the operator vantage
- drop flux and helm from the binary allowlist; they had no pinned release
digest, so no allowlisted binary can now be admitted that the executor
would refuse to attest
- remove the inert --concurrency and --expect-telegram-sessions flags and
the dead concurrency bound; Telegram continuity stays mandatory
- read the ephemeral pull index page by page, treat the create response as
an authoritative source for the pull number, close every number either
source names, and surface residue_ref plus exact manual_cleanup commands
when creation is uncertain
- keep executable_path and executable_sha256 on unrecorded bulk-evidence
steps so withholding bytes never withholds binary attestation
- revert the repo-wide hygiene legacy-exception mechanism; the contract
change here is purely additive and the four pre-existing over-cap files
are left to the canonical contract change in PR #14/#15
- correct the runbook ruff format scope so the documented command passes
Split hermes_handoff_arming.py out of hermes_handoff_ephemeral.py to keep
both modules under the 500-line cap. All 16 handoff modules hold at least
95% line and branch coverage; the mutation gate is 13/13.

fix(hermes): close the zero-evidence fail-open in absence checks
evaluate_names_absent returned PASS when its step exited 0 with no output,
so five mandatory checks - the ones asserting that provider API keys, forge
credentials, a cluster-admin binding, and shared coordinator state are
absent - could report a pass on no evidence and turn a NO_GO into a GO.
Both name rules now resolve their step through one guard in _line_step, so
zero observations are NOT_RUN. Regressions pin all five real catalog specs
plus both reachable silence paths: a POSIX pipeline whose status comes from
its last stage, and a drifted kubectl -o jsonpath. The pool claim projection
emits one <volume>=<claim> line per template volume so a volume without a
PVC still counts as an observation rather than reading as drift.
Also closes the review's reachable hardening and evidence defects:
- pin Gitea paths to atlas/titan-iac on an exact segment boundary and
reject relative segments, including percent-encoded ones
- forbid impersonation structurally in every mode and vantage; the inner
command of kubectl exec is re-checked rather than exempted, and
validate_catalog no longer guards only the operator vantage
- drop flux and helm from the binary allowlist; they had no pinned release
digest, so no allowlisted binary can now be admitted that the executor
would refuse to attest
- remove the inert --concurrency and --expect-telegram-sessions flags and
the dead concurrency bound; Telegram continuity stays mandatory
- read the ephemeral pull index page by page, treat the create response as
an authoritative source for the pull number, close every number either
source names, and surface residue_ref plus exact manual_cleanup commands
when creation is uncertain
- keep executable_path and executable_sha256 on unrecorded bulk-evidence
steps so withholding bytes never withholds binary attestation
- revert the repo-wide hygiene legacy-exception mechanism; the contract
change here is purely additive and the four pre-existing over-cap files
are left to the canonical contract change in PR #14/#15
- correct the runbook ruff format scope so the documented command passes

hermes: add a fail-closed full-handoff acceptance harness
Decides whether the Hermes platform handoff is fit to release, and refuses
to round an absence of evidence up to a pass.
The harness is read-only by default and classifies 71 checks PASS / FAIL /
NOT_RUN / NOT_APPLICABLE. Any mandatory FAIL or NOT_RUN is NO_GO, and so is a
harness-level problem: an unreachable vantage, a catalog entry whose evidence
no longer exists, an expired deadline, or an evaluator that raised.
Evidence comes from two vantages that cannot cover for each other: an external
read-only operator kubeconfig, and the Hermes agent probing itself from inside
its own pod. Before any check runs, the harness asks each vantage who it is and
stops if they are the same principal, because dual-vantage evidence from one
identity is a restatement rather than a corroboration. `--as` is rejected for
every operator-side command and reachable only as the inner command of a
`kubectl exec`, so impersonation can never stand in for a real self-probe. A
deny check needs a live refused request, not only an authorization review.
Two safety properties are structural rather than conventional, enforced where
an argv becomes a subprocess: the default mode mutates nothing (mutating verbs
require a server dry run; there is deliberately no live TokenRequest probe,
because a successful one would mint a real credential), and no probe can pull a
credential value into a report (no vault/sops/curl, secrets readable only with
-o name, environment probes list names, shell only through frozen reviewed
templates). Captures are bounded before they are screened, and the rendered
report is re-screened before it is written.
Mutation lives behind a separate arming flag with an exact confirmation phrase,
a caller-supplied unique ref, a preflight that refuses a protected push target
before any network call, and a cleanup whose verification is itself mandatory.
A default run reports those four checks NOT_RUN.
The catalog is declarative so a reviewer reads what is asserted rather than how
it is plumbed, and so structural properties can be proven over every entry
before a run. Catalog drift surfaces as NOT_RUN, which stops the release.
docs/hermes_full_handoff_acceptance.md carries the merge order for PRs #14-#18
on top of the merged #13 baseline, the image build and Flux rollout, the
rollback point for each step, the go/no-go checklist, and the limits that are
asserted rather than exercised.
Validation: 295 handoff tests pass with 100% line coverage on all 15 new
modules; the full unit suite is 647 passed with two failures that reproduce
unchanged on origin/main; Ruff, py_compile, kustomize render, and a diff
credential screen are clean; a live read-only run against Atlas returns NO_GO
for the pre-merge cluster with no unscreened fields in the report.
