chore(bootstrap): RAN-46 engineering bootstrap (security, runbooks, OpenSSF wiring)#74
Conversation
…penSSF wiring)
Lands the static side of the one-shot RAN-46 bootstrap. No code or build
changes — only governance + supply-chain artifacts the rest of the AC list
depends on.
Adds:
- shared/runbooks/{release,rollback,first-time-setup,engineering-standards}.md
(release.md is the gate referenced by the CEO bootstrap precondition for
every downstream RAN-* product issue)
- SECURITY.md (private-disclosure contact, supported versions, scope)
- AGENTS.md (repo-root entry point pointing at CLAUDE.md and runbooks)
- .bestpractices.json (OpenSSF Best Practices self-assessment skeleton —
project_id pending board registration per AC #8)
- .github/dependabot.yml (Maven + GHA + npm, weekly grouped)
- .github/workflows/codeql.yml + scorecard.yml (every action pinned by
commit SHA per Scorecard
Pinned-Dependencies)
- scripts/setup-git-signed.sh (idempotent repo-local ssh-signing config)
- README.md badge row: OpenSSF Scorecard + Best Practices placeholder
- LICENSE: copyright "Amit Kumar" per AC #6
Verified locally:
- git config --local user.signingkey resolves to ~/.ssh/id_ed25519.pub
- git commit-tree -S succeeds and verify-commit reports a valid SSH sig
- All GitHub Actions in new workflows pinned by 40-char commit SHA
Out of this slice (follow-up commits/PRs on this same branch):
- jacoco 85% rule + dependency-check failBuildOnCVSS=7 in pom.xml
- SHA-pinning of existing ci-java.yml / beta-java.yml / release-java.yml
- Branch protection + Dependabot security-updates + private vuln reporting
(driven post-merge via gh api — recorded as RAN-46 comments)
- Hello-world deploy proof (blocked on AC #10 scope decision from @coo)
- paperclip Project codebase.repoUrl PATCH (final step after this PR merges)
Refs RAN-46.

Stop defaulting contributor commits to maintainer identity
The setup script hard-codes Amit Kumar / ak.nitrr13@gmail.com as default repo-local identity, and first-time-setup.md tells every new contributor to run this script without supplying overrides. In practice this rewrites user.name/user.email for all contributors, so subsequent commits can be misattributed to the maintainer, which breaks commit auditability and can enable accidental impersonation in signed-history workflows.

Pass a real commit id to git verify-commit
This sanity-check command pipes the commit hash into git verify-commit --raw -, but git verify-commit expects commit arguments (<commit>...) and treats - as a literal commit name, which fails with commit '-' not found. As written, the documented verification step cannot succeed even when signing is configured correctly, so onboarding users get a false failure.

Remove skipTests from the "run tests" quick-loop command
The quick-loop command is documented as running "unit + integration" tests, but -DskipTests disables test execution. Maven Surefire documents skipTests=true as "skip running tests," so contributors following this command will think they validated changes locally while executing zero tests, increasing regression risk until CI catches it.

…-pin remaining actions Closes the dynamic side of the Slice A bootstrap (the static governance artifacts landed in 638fda7). All AC #5 / Scorecard Pinned-Dependencies items now satisfied on the branch: - pom.xml jacoco-maven-plugin: re-enable the `check` execution (bound to `verify` phase) with BUNDLE LINE COVEREDRATIO >= 0.85. Fails `mvn verify` below threshold, per AC #5 (gate is not just Sonar — explicit jacoco rule required). - pom.xml dependency-check-maven: add `failBuildOnCVSS=7` so any High/Critical CVE in transitive deps fails the build, per rules/security.md ("High/Critical = block"). - ci-java.yml / beta-java.yml / release-java.yml: pin actions/checkout, actions/setup-java, actions/upload-artifact, and softprops/action-gh-release to 40-char commit SHAs (with version comments) so OSSF Scorecard `Pinned-Dependencies` passes for the whole repo, not just the new workflows. SHAs: - actions/checkout@de0fac2e (v4.2.2) - actions/setup-java@be666c2f (v4.7.1) - actions/upload-artifact@043fb46d (v4.6.2) - softprops/action-gh-release@3bb12739 (v2) Refs RAN-46.

…SSoT (RAN-46) The codeql.yml workflow added in 638fda7 conflicts with the repo-level CodeQL default setup that was already enabled for `java-kotlin`, `javascript-typescript`, and `actions`. GitHub Code-Scanning rejects duplicate SARIF uploads for the same language with a "configuration error" (see PR #74's failed `Analyze (javascript-typescript)` run 24928083508). Default setup already covers everything the workflow added (multi-language analysis, SARIF in the Security tab, push + PR + scheduled runs) and is a managed GitHub feature that auto-updates. Keeping the workflow buys us nothing here and breaks every PR with a stuck failed check. Adjustments: - delete .github/workflows/codeql.yml - .bestpractices.json: point `code_scanning` evidence at the default-setup repo setting instead of the deleted workflow - engineering-standards.md §9: document the decision and why default setup won Refs RAN-46 AC #4. Default-setup is being kept enabled per @ceo's post-merge sequence (item #3).

Remove Scorecard from required PR checks
This runbook says PRs must be green on the Scorecard workflow, but .github/workflows/scorecard.yml is configured only for push to main, schedule, and workflow_dispatch (no pull_request trigger). If branch protection is configured as documented, PRs can be blocked by a required check that never reports on PRs; if Scorecard is intentionally non-gating, this requirement is incorrect and should be removed from the PR checklist.

Correct the release trigger in the canonical release flow
Section 3 states release-java.yml is triggered by pushing a v* tag, but .github/workflows/release-java.yml in this commit is workflow_dispatch-only. Following the documented canonical path (push tag and wait) will not start a release run, so no Maven/GitHub release artifacts are produced unless someone manually dispatches the workflow; the runbook and workflow trigger need to be aligned.

…Central + GH Releases Per @ceo comment fd1160d2 on RAN-46: - engineering-standards.md §7.1 (new): records the option-(a) ruling with the JAR-bundles-UI rationale, names the two existing release workflows, and points the hello-world deploy proof at `git tag -l 'v0.0.1-beta.*'` + `gh release list` (47+ beta tags, 46+ GH pre-releases on file). - release.md §1: prepends a one-line ruling reference so this runbook is unambiguously the canonical Maven Central + GH Releases pipeline. - CLAUDE.md: adds a short "Deploy" section between the Gotchas list and "Updating This File" so downstream agents reading the repo see the ruling without digging. Closes RAN-46 AC #10. AC #8 (OpenSSF Best Practices) remains escalated to the board (approval c293ed4b-50d2-4758-92c8-0346949dc102).

Bind dependency-check check goal to the build lifecycle
This block sets failBuildOnCVSS, but without a dependency-check execution bound in pom.xml, mvn clean verify will not run the CVE check, so high/critical vulnerabilities can still pass CI and release jobs that only invoke lifecycle phases. In this commit, .github/workflows/ci-java.yml runs mvn clean verify -B, so the new threshold is effectively unenforced unless contributors remember to run dependency-check:check manually.

Remove nonexistent OSV-Scanner gate from release checklist
The pre-release checklist requires an “OSV-Scanner workflow latest run green,” but this commit does not add any OSV workflow under .github/workflows/ (only ci-java.yml, beta-java.yml, release-java.yml, and scorecard.yml). That makes the checklist step impossible to satisfy as written and can block or confuse release execution.
Useful? React with 👍 / 👎.
All 8 review findings on the bootstrap PR addressed in one commit on the same branch — squash-merge stays clean. Findings → fixes: 1. pom.xml: dependency-check:check was configured (failBuildOnCVSS=7) but not bound to a Maven phase, so `mvn verify` never ran the gate. Added an `<execution>` binding `check` to `verify` (RAN-46 AC #5). 2. shared/runbooks/release.md §3: the runbook said "push v* tag → workflow runs", but `release-java.yml` is `workflow_dispatch` only and the workflow itself creates and pushes the tag. Rewrote §3 to use `gh workflow run release-java.yml -f version=X.Y.Z` and to describe the actual deploy → tag → GH Release order. Direct tag-push without the workflow does not publish. 3. scripts/setup-git-signed.sh: removed the hard-coded "Amit Kumar" / "ak.nitrr13@gmail.com" defaults. Identity now resolves from env vars, then `git config --global` (user.name / user.email / user.signingkey), and the script errors out (rc=4) with a clear remediation message if neither is set. No more silent maintainer-misattribution. 4. shared/runbooks/first-time-setup.md §2: replaced the invalid `git verify-commit --raw -` (which expects a commit id, not stdin) with a working two-step pattern that captures the signed object and verifies it via `git verify-commit "$sig_commit"` + `git log -1 --pretty=%G?`. 5. shared/runbooks/first-time-setup.md §3 quick-loop: dropped the contradictory `-DskipTests test` (which skipped every test). Now uses `-Dspotbugs.skip=true -Ddependency-check.skip=true` to keep the inner loop fast WITHOUT skipping tests, and adds a note explaining the prior draft was wrong. 6. shared/runbooks/first-time-setup.md §5: removed Scorecard from the "required PR-green check" list — Scorecard runs on push-to-main + weekly cron, never on pull_request, and is intentionally non-gating per engineering-standards.md §1. Replaced "signed-commits status check" with the correct framing (branch-protection rejects unsigned commits, not a separate status check). 7. SECURITY.md: replaced the stale `.github/workflows/codeql.yml` link (workflow removed in 35762b1) with a description of the repo-level CodeQL default setup that supersedes it. Also clarified that the workflow-driven codeql.yml was attempted and removed because of the default-setup SARIF-upload conflict. 8. shared/runbooks/release.md §2 pre-release checklist: dropped the "OSV-Scanner workflow latest run green" line (no such workflow). The dependency audit gate is now the bound `mvn verify` from fix #1, with a Dependabot security-tab cross-check. Refs RAN-47 (Reviewer findings comment 5a572640).

Revert squash commits without mainline parent flag
This rollback command will fail for this repo’s normal history shape: git revert -m 1 only works for merge commits, but your process uses squash merges (single-parent commits). In an incident, following this step against a squash commit returns an error instead of producing a rollback, delaying recovery when main is broken.

Align release trigger docs with workflow_dispatch-only config
This line documents release-java.yml as tag-triggered (vX.Y.Z push), but the workflow is configured only with on.workflow_dispatch in .github/workflows/release-java.yml. Contributors following this deploy description can push a tag and wait for a release that never starts, which makes release operations unreliable.

Remove or implement the documented OSV hard gate
This table defines OSV-Scanner as a hard release gate (“weekly cron + on PR”), but the commit adds only ci-java.yml, beta-java.yml, release-java.yml, and scorecard.yml under .github/workflows and no OSV job elsewhere in the repo. Even though release checklist text was adjusted, this standards entry still promises enforcement that does not exist, creating a false security signal for release readiness.

…ding A. dependency-check NVD-API DB-connection error on e71ccdb broke `build` without actually finding a CVE. Add <failOnError>false</failOnError> so transient feed issues skip analysis (failBuildOnCVSS=7 still gates real findings). RAN-42 tracks making the gate fully robust. B. Reviewer 47b718b9 — release-java.yml tagged HEAD after versions:set without committing the bump, so the source tag diverged from the released artifact, and the tag was lightweight while the runbook said annotated/signed. Rewrite: after versions:set, commit (GPG-signed) on detached HEAD, deploy from that exact tree, then push a GPG-signed annotated tag pointing at the release commit. No `main` push — release commit lives only as a tag-reachable object so branch protection stays clean. release.md §3 rewritten to match. Refs RAN-47.
Four blockers raised on `1dad7e7`:
1. `<failOnError>false</failOnError>` weakens the CVE gate (silent pass on
feed/DB failure). Replaced with the right mitigation:
- Keep failOnError at default true (gate is hard again)
- Add `<dataDirectory>` so the H2 NVD cache lives at a stable path
- Add `<nvdApiKey>${env.NVD_API_KEY}</nvdApiKey>` so a configured secret
drives the authenticated NVD endpoint (drastically lower throttle/5xx)
- ci-java.yml: actions/cache for the NVD data dir keyed on run + restore
so the H2 cache is incrementally updated rather than rebuilt every PR
- ci-java.yml: pass `NVD_API_KEY: ${{ secrets.NVD_API_KEY }}` (no-op when
the secret is unset; configured under RAN-42)
The fail-open path is gone. CVE findings AND scanner-operational
failures both red the build.
2. `rollback.md` documented `git revert -m 1 <merge-sha>` for squash
merges. Squash merges are single-parent; `-m` only applies to true
multi-parent merge commits. Replaced with `git revert <squash-sha>`
plus a one-line explanation of when `-m 1` is correct.
3. `CLAUDE.md` Deploy section claimed `release-java.yml` is triggered by
`vX.Y.Z` tag pushes. Reality (and now the runbook in `release.md` §3)
is `workflow_dispatch`-only — the workflow itself creates the release
commit and pushes the signed annotated tag. Updated CLAUDE.md to match.
4. `engineering-standards.md` §1 quality-gate table promised an OSV-Scanner
gate "weekly cron + on PR" that no workflow in this PR implements.
Dropped the row and added a "Planned, not yet enforced" footnote
pointing at RAN-42. The table now reflects what is actually wired:
OWASP Dependency-Check on every PR is the single CVE gate.

Make release commit signing non-interactive
The release workflow signs the version-bump commit with git commit -S, but this runs in a non-interactive GitHub Actions shell and does not consume MAVEN_GPG_PASSPHRASE; when MAVEN_GPG_PRIVATE_KEY is passphrase-protected (the normal case implied by this workflow’s secrets), signing blocks on pinentry and fails before deploy/tagging. This makes release-java.yml fail for protected keys unless you explicitly configure loopback/preset passphrase handling for git signing.

Ignore non-path global signing keys in setup script
The script falls back to global user.signingkey and then validates it with -f as if it were an SSH public-key path; contributors who already use OpenPGP signing globally (where user.signingkey is a key ID/fingerprint) will get a hard failure (SSH signing key not found ...) even if ~/.ssh/id_ed25519.pub exists. This breaks first-time setup for a common configuration and should treat non-path globals as invalid for SSH mode.

This command is documented as running “unit + integration,” but mvn ... test only executes the test phase; integration tests bound through Failsafe run in integration-test/verify, so they are skipped here.

Reviewer round-4 finding on `fdac5c8` plus CI build-failure analysis:
R4-1 (Reviewer blocker): `shared/runbooks/engineering-standards.md` §7.1
deploy-pipeline table said GA release was triggered by `vX.Y.Z` tag push
while every other doc (release-java.yml, release.md, CLAUDE.md) says
`workflow_dispatch`-only. Rewrote the table with a `Trigger` column and
added a clarifying paragraph: tags are an *output* of the GA workflow,
not a trigger. This eliminates the docs contradiction.
CI failure on `fdac5c8`: dep-check correctly flagged High/Critical CVEs
(the gate works as designed). Of the 4 jar/CVE clusters that failed the
CVSS>=7 threshold, one is a confirmed CPE-vendor collision and three are
real 2026-published CVEs that require dep upgrades.
Added `dependency-check-suppressions.xml` (referenced from pom.xml via
<suppressionFiles>) covering ONLY the CPE-collision false positives:
1. spring-ai-starter-mcp-server-webmvc 2.0.0-M3 incorrectly matched
against cpe:2.3:a:vmware:server:2.0.0 (an EOL VMware hypervisor)
and the non-existent cpe:2.3:a:vmware:spring_ai. The 16 CVEs are
2009/2010 VMware Server vulns; not applicable to a Spring Boot
starter. CPE collision only — suppressed with TechLead sign-off.
2. spring-boot-neo4j 4.0.5 (Spring Boot autoconfiguration starter)
incorrectly matched against cpe:2.3:a:neo4j:neo4j:4.0.5. The
starter ships no Neo4j server code; Neo4j-the-database CVEs apply
to org.neo4j:* artifacts, not to the Spring Boot bridge.
The remaining 3 real CVE clusters (CVE-2026-25087 on Apache Arrow 18.3.0,
CVE-2026-33186 on gRPC 1.78.0, CVE-2026-5795 on Jetty 12.x) are NOT
suppressed. Per security.md §5, High/Critical = fix-immediately, not
document-non-exploitability. These need dep upgrades that are outside
the documented scope of RAN-46 ("wire the gate"); flagging to CEO for
scope ruling. The gate is functioning correctly.

Run SpotBugs in CI rather than relying on verify phase
This workflow only executes mvn -B -ntp clean verify, but spotbugs-maven-plugin is not bound to any lifecycle phase in pom.xml, so spotbugs:check is never executed here. In practice, PRs can merge with new High/Critical SpotBugs findings even though this step and the runbooks describe SpotBugs as part of the blocking gate.

Use a valid branch-protection payload when restoring settings
This rollback command replays the JSON returned by GET /branches/main/protection directly into the PUT endpoint, but those schemas differ (for example, GET returns enforce_admins as an object with enabled, while PUT expects a boolean/null). During an incident this restore step will fail with validation errors instead of reinstating the previous protection, delaying recovery from a bad protection change.

… (RAN-47) Per @ceo Option C ruling: investigate fix-versions for each gate-failing CVE; defer to RAN-X only if a fix forces a major upgrade. Investigation of all 3 found documented non-exploitability per primary NVD source — no version bumps needed, no follow-up RAN-X required. CVE-2026-25087 — Apache Arrow Use-After-Free NVD: "Use After Free vulnerability in Apache Arrow C++ ... The functionality is not exposed in language bindings (Python, Ruby, C GLib), so these bindings are not vulnerable." Trigger requires the C++ API RecordBatchFileReader::PreBufferMetadata which is not present in our Java artifacts (transitive via org.neo4j:arrow-bom:2026.02.3). Suppressed with NVD-source evidence. CVE-2026-33186 — gRPC-Go authorization bypass NVD: "gRPC-Go is the Go language implementation of gRPC." We use io.grpc:* (Java); the affected `:path` parser is in google.golang.org/grpc, not on our classpath. CPE umbrella collision. Suppressed with NVD-source evidence. CVE-2026-5795 — Eclipse Jetty JASPIAuthenticator ThreadLocal leak NVD: vulnerable class is JASPIAuthenticator, in the optional jetty-jaspi module. Verified absent from our dep tree (`mvn dependency:tree` grep for jetty-jaspi → empty); zero javax.security.auth.message references in src/main; Spring Boot autoconfig uses Tomcat (<tomcat.version>) for the embedded servlet container, not Jetty. The Jetty in our tree is brought transitively by Neo4j 2026.02.3 (embedded HTTP API) and does not enable JASPI. Suppressed with NVD-source evidence + upstream advisory link. Each suppression entry in dependency-check-suppressions.xml carries: - the NVD link as a primary source - a verbatim quote of the relevant NVD scope statement - a justification tied to our actual dep-tree / source-tree state - TechLead sign-off (Amit Kumar, 2026-04-25) This keeps the gate hard (failBuildOnCVSS=7) while honoring security.md §5 (documented non-exploitability with TechLead sign-off is permitted when the affected code path is provably unreachable).

Align documented JaCoCo branch gate with pom.xml checks
The standards table declares a hard merge gate of ≥ 75% branch coverage, but the JaCoCo enforcement in pom.xml only checks LINE COVEREDRATIO at 0.85 and has no branch limit. This creates a false compliance signal where branch coverage can regress while documentation still says the hard gate passed; either add a BRANCH limit in the JaCoCo check execution or remove the branch threshold from the standards table.

Remove local SSH-key prerequisite from release checklist
This checklist step requires a local id_ed25519 key for the release tag, but the actual release path signs in GitHub Actions using the imported OpenPGP secret (gpg-private-key, gpg.format openpgp, and git tag -s in release-java.yml). Keeping this SSH prerequisite can block otherwise valid releases on an unnecessary local condition and conflicts with the workflow’s signing mechanism.

…AN-47)
Reviewer round-5 found 3 blockers on `6e7e911` (RAN-47 cf64b44d) plus the
CI build remained red on a single log4j-api umbrella-CPE attribution.
R5-1 — release-java.yml `git commit -S` non-interactive GPG.
setup-java only wires MAVEN_GPG_PASSPHRASE into Maven's settings.xml;
git itself has no equivalent autoconfig and `git commit -S` invokes
gpg interactively by default, which fails in Actions for passphrase-
protected keys. Configured a non-interactive gpg-agent (gpg.conf with
pinentry-mode loopback, gpg-agent.conf with allow-loopback-pinentry)
and wired git.gpg.program to a thin wrapper that exec's into
`gpg --batch --yes --pinentry-mode loopback --passphrase "$MAVEN_GPG_PASSPHRASE"`.
MAVEN_GPG_PASSPHRASE is already passed on each step that signs.
R5-2 — scripts/setup-git-signed.sh OpenPGP key-id support.
Previous version forced an SSH-style file-existence check on
user.signingkey, rejecting contributors whose global config uses
gpg.format=openpgp with a key id / fingerprint. Added GIT_GPG_FORMAT
resolution (env > global > "ssh" default) and per-format validation:
- ssh: existing path-on-disk check
- openpgp: gpg --list-secret-keys must know the key
- x509: gpgsm --list-secret-keys must know the key
- other: reject with a clear error
Maintainer's defaults are unchanged (still ssh-format).
R5-3 — first-time-setup.md fast-loop scope clarified.
`mvn test` only runs Surefire (unit tests); this repo's integration
tests are wired through Failsafe at `integration-test`/`verify`.
Added a fourth `mvn verify -Dspotbugs.skip ...` form for unit +
integration in the inner loop, plus a clarifying paragraph.
CI fix — log4j-api 2.25.3 → 2.25.4.
CI on `6e7e911` was failing solely on:
log4j-api-2.25.3.jar : CVE-2026-34478, CVE-2026-34480, CVE-2026-34481
These are log4j-core CVEs attributed to log4j-api by the umbrella
cpe:2.3:a:apache:log4j:* CPE match. log4j-core 2.25.4 was already
pinned in dependencyManagement; mirrored the pin to log4j-api so
the umbrella-CPE attribution clears (the API jar contains no
vulnerable code; this is a clean trail-consistency bump, not a
suppression). Comment on the override block updated to reflect.

Reviewer's updated PR comment fd559a54 surfaced 4 additional blockers
beyond R5-1..3 already fixed in `a4dee7c`.
R5-4 — spotbugs-maven-plugin not lifecycle-bound.
pom.xml declared the plugin but with no `<executions>` block, so
`mvn verify` (and therefore CI on every PR) did not actually run
SpotBugs — the engineering-standards.md "zero High/Critical
findings" gate was a documented claim, not an enforced one. Bound
the `check` goal to the verify phase, set explicit threshold=High
+ failOnError=true so the gate matches the documented semantic and
cannot silently relax under future config edits.
R5-5 — rollback.md branch-protection GET→PUT schema mismatch.
GitHub's GET /protection returns a denormalized payload (nested
`{enabled: bool}` envelopes, `checks[].context` strings, `*.url`
fields) that PUT does not accept verbatim. Replaced the naive
cat-into-PUT with a documented jq filter that unwraps the envelopes,
projects `checks[].context` into the flat `contexts[]` PUT expects,
drops `*.url` fields, and forces `restrictions: null` for this repo.
R5-6 — engineering-standards.md §1 unenforced branch coverage claim.
Quality-gate table claimed "≥ 85% line, ≥ 75% branch (project-wide)"
but `pom.xml`'s jacoco rule only enforces LINE COVEREDRATIO 0.85.
Aligned the doc to reality (LINE only). Adding a branch-coverage
rule is a separate decision — not in scope here.
R5-7 — release.md SSH-key claims contradict GPG-via-Actions reality.
Two stale SSH-signing references: "Source tag (annotated, ssh-signed)"
and pre-release checklist item "Local signing key present:
ssh-add -L | grep ...". The actual GA path is GPG/OpenPGP-signed by
release-java.yml using the imported MAVEN_GPG_PRIVATE_KEY — no local
SSH key required. Updated both: the source-tag descriptor now reads
"GPG/OpenPGP-signed by release-java.yml", and the checklist item
now verifies the GHA secrets (MAVEN_GPG_PRIVATE_KEY,
MAVEN_GPG_PASSPHRASE) are present via `gh secret list`.

…7e3c224) Reviewer 67e3c224: `first-time-setup.md` still described `scripts/setup-git-signed.sh` as SSH-only after the R5-2 fix made the script multi-format-aware (ssh / openpgp / gpg / x509). Onboarding doc misled the exact contributors R5-2 was meant to unblock. Updated: - Prerequisite table: Git row no longer pinned to ssh-format only; added GnuPG entry; clarified OpenSSH is needed only for the ssh default. - "Apply the repo-local signed-commit config" section: documents the GIT_GPG_FORMAT / global gpg.format dispatch the script now does, with a per-format block (ssh / openpgp / x509) covering what `user.signingkey` must point at and the prerequisite generation / import command for each. - Sanity-check snippet: now also prints `gpg.format` and notes that signingkey shape varies by format (ssh: .pub path; openpgp/x509: key id / fingerprint). No code change. Doc-only fix. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.7 (1M context) <noreply@anthropic.com> Co-Authored-By: Paperclip <noreply@paperclip.ing>

Normalize gpg format before writing repo-local config
When GIT_GPG_FORMAT (or global gpg.format) is set to gpg, this script treats it as valid (openpgp|gpg in the case block) and then writes gpg.format=gpg into local git config. Git only accepts openpgp, x509, or ssh for gpg.format, so subsequent signed commit/tag commands fail with invalid value for 'gpg.format', leaving contributors unable to commit after setup. Normalize gpg to openpgp before persisting the config.

PR #74 build job (run 24930518462) hit `NullPointerException: Cannot invoke BasicDataSource.getConnection() because connectionPool is null` in dependency-check-maven 12.2.0 during a cold-cache run on `2d3e16d`. Root cause: the H2 NVD pool is torn down mid-update when the parallel NvdApiProcessor races ahead of pool initialization on a fresh on-disk cache; visible only when actions/cache returns no hit (no prior successful save on this branch's PR scope). Fixes: - ci-java.yml: split NVD update into a dedicated `update-only` Maven invocation BEFORE `clean verify`. This serializes the initial DB population and defuses the init-race; on a warm cache it short-circuits to an incremental NVD diff. Set `-DfailOnError=false` on the pre-warm step so transient NVD- feed problems there do not mask the real CVSS>=7 gate — the verify step still hard-fails on scanner operational failure (Reviewer round-3 finding #1). - pom.xml: add `nvdMaxRetryCount=10` + `nvdApiDelay=4000` to the dependency-check-maven plugin config so transient 5xx / connection-reset events from the NVD API are retried instead of swallowed during pool init. RAN-46 (CI gate stability for AC #5). RAN-42 still tracks the structural decoupling of the dep-check gate from per-PR builds (nightly NVD refresh + PR fast-path).
