ci: pr-guard: close the gaps an audit of the merged guard found - #90
Merged

Conversation
A full read of the guard for changes that get no finding, or a lighter one than the rule promises. Each item was
reproduced before it was fixed, and has a test.
Refused for everyone:
- criss-cross (new): a branch with more than one common ancestor with main. Its diff showed nothing while merging
it took a merged fix back out (a "git merge -s ours" of an old side branch). No merge on main has that shape.
- odd-path: any character outside ASCII in a file name. A Mac folds the long s onto s, so "contract<long s>/src/..."
and ".v<long s>code/tasks.json" landed on the real files at checkout and matched no rule.
- install-script: binding.gyp. npm builds it at install time with no script in package.json.
- lockfile: an entry's name and version have to be a name and a version. A version that walks the path gave one
package another package's tarball.
- unread (new): a file the guard cannot read (over 25 MB, past 1500 files, an error) was "unscanned", which an
owner's own pull request passes. A lockfile and a text file over 2 MB are still read for credentials and hidden
characters.
- hidden-unicode: a variation selector away from an emoji, and a carriage return inside a line (a compiler ends a
"//" comment there).
- case-collision: two new names that differ only by case. A file renamed only in its case is no longer one.
- dev-machine: CLAUDE.local.md, AGENTS.override.md, .devcontainer.json, *.code-workspace, .clinerules/, .zed/,
.roo/, .kiro/ and more of their kind.
For an owner to read:
- dot-file (new): any other new file or folder whose name begins with a dot (.coderabbit.yaml, .eslintrc.js). A
.gitignore or .gitkeep is left alone.
- A file under pages/ is a page whatever it is called, so "x.test.tsx" there is not exempt as a test. LICENSES.ts is
code, LICENSE-MIT is prose.
- auth-removed knows the app's own names (validate..., check..., admit..., assert...), and a check that is
commented out counts as removed.
- new-env: process.env?.NAME, and a helper called with the name (intEnv("NAME", 5), vm.envOr("NAME", ...)).
- contract-rules: owner, paused, feeBps, setProtocolFee, written without a library.
Also: a finding never repeats a credential (a git dependency's token was quoted in the job log); the lock script
refuses a line that is not an entry in the one shape the guard reads; CONTRIBUTING says what "contracts" and
"binary" cover and lists the three new rules.
161 tests (146 before). Every merged pull request on main and all eight open ones keep their outcome.

- Around line 699-705: In the large-file and lockfile branch, retain the full
result of scanLines before applying the per-file limit, then add an unscanned
finding reporting how many results were omitted when that count exceeds
MAX_FINDINGS_PER_FILE. Keep the existing capped findings and non-lockfile notice
behavior unchanged.
Review comments at @CONTRIBUTING.md:
- Around line 76-77: Update the dot-file exception in the `policy`,

`.gitignore` and `.gitkeep`, matching the exemption in `pr-guard.mjs`.

…TRIBUTING names .keep From the CodeRabbit review of #90. - A lockfile or a file over 2 MB is read for credentials and hidden characters, and at most 200 findings are listed per file. Past that the report now says how many it left out, as it already did for every other file. - The new dot-file rule leaves .gitignore, .gitkeep and .keep alone. CONTRIBUTING named only the first two.

From the CodeRabbit review of #90: the "contracts" finding explained itself as "new contract sources", while it is given for every change under contracts/ that is not blocked, edits and deletions too. Read the other rules' texts against the code as well: contract-locked names the lock's own guards, submodule says "removed", binary names the image and font types it accepts, case-collision covers two new paths, dangerous-code mentions the environment and key stores, dot-file names its exceptions.

From the CodeRabbit review of #90. --update wrote such a path into contracts/deployed.lock, and the check then refused the line it had just written: an entry is "kind hash path" with no space in the path, which is also the only shape the guard reads. The path is refused before anything is written.

What
After #88 merged, an independent audit read the whole guard looking for changes that get no finding, or a lighter
one than the rule promises. This closes what it found. Each item was reproduced first and has a test.
Refused for everyone
took a merged fix back out. No merge on main has that shape.
name landed on the real file at checkout and matched no rule.
another package's tarball.
a text file over 2 MB are still read for credentials and hidden characters.
For an owner to read
Also
A finding never repeats a credential. The lock script refuses a line the guard would not read as an entry.
CONTRIBUTING lists the three new rules.
Tests
161 tests (146 on main), green on Node 20/22/24 and in a Linux container. Every merged pull request on main and all
eight open ones keep their outcome.
Merging
pr-guard will show this pull request as blocked: it edits .github/ and the lock's check script. That is the rule
working. It merges with the admin bypass.
