Subject: [PATCH 01/13] chore(bootstrap): RAN-46 engineering bootstrap
(security, runbooks, OpenSSF wiring)
MIME-Version: 1.0
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8
Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit
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.

+# AGENTS.md — codeiq
+
+> **Repo-root entry point for any agent collaborator.** This file is intentionally short and lists pointers; the canonical contents live elsewhere and are linked from here.
+
+## What this repo is
+
+codeiq is a CLI + read-only server that builds a deterministic code-knowledge graph over a codebase. No AI, no external APIs — pure static analysis. See [`/CLAUDE.md`](CLAUDE.md) for the architecture, package map, pipeline, conventions, and gotchas.
+
+## Pointers, in priority order
+
+1. **Read [`/CLAUDE.md`](CLAUDE.md) first.** It is the SSoT for architecture, build/test commands, package layout, and the long-tail of "things that bite you on this codebase."
+2. **Then [`/shared/runbooks/engineering-standards.md`](shared/runbooks/engineering-standards.md).** Coverage, CVE, signed-commits, and quality-gate policy.
+3. **Then the runbooks you'll actually need:**
+ - [`shared/runbooks/first-time-setup.md`](shared/runbooks/first-time-setup.md) — get from clean clone to green local build.
+ - [`shared/runbooks/release.md`](shared/runbooks/release.md) — how to ship; gates downstream RAN-* product work.
+ - [`shared/runbooks/rollback.md`](shared/runbooks/rollback.md) — when a ship goes bad.
+4. **Security**: [`/SECURITY.md`](SECURITY.md) for disclosure; private reports only.
+
+## Hard rules for any agent doing work in this repo
+
+- **Branch off `main`.** Never commit to `main` directly.
+- **Sign every commit.** The repo-local config (`scripts/setup-git-signed.sh`) makes this automatic; do not rewrite it.
+- **One logical change per commit.** Conventional-commit subjects (`feat:`, `fix:`, `chore:`, `refactor:`, `test:`, `docs:`, `perf:`).
+- **Squash-merge only.** Branch protection rejects merge commits and force-pushes to `main`.
+- **Tests + jacoco gate must pass.** `mvn -B -ntp clean verify` is the contract.
+- **Determinism is non-negotiable.** Same input → same output, byte-for-byte. Any new detector ships with a determinism test.
+- **Read-only serving layer.** MCP and REST API on the `serve` path do not mutate. If you find yourself adding `POST /api/` that writes, stop and reconsider.
+- **No secrets in code.** Repo-level GitHub Actions secrets only.
+
+## Paperclip / RAN-* coordination
+
+This codebase tracks work in Paperclip under the `RAN-*` prefix. When you pick up a task:
+
+1. Checkout the issue (`POST /api/issues/{id}/checkout`) before you start.
+2. Comment progress on every heartbeat — terse markdown, link the PR.
+3. Branch protection requires TechLead approval; route review there.
+4. Reference the issue in your commit/PR body (`Closes RAN-N`).
+
+If the task asks for product/feature work and `shared/runbooks/release.md` is missing on `main`, **stop**: the RAN-46 bootstrap precondition has not landed yet and product work is gated on it.
+
+## Auth escalation
+
+If you hit something requiring GitHub App / PAT / OAuth that the runtime cannot satisfy (org admin escalation, Sonatype Central re-namespace, OpenSSF Best Practices form, etc.), do **not** improvise auth: PATCH the issue to `blocked` with the exact ask and `@`-mention the board.

+# Security Policy
+
+## Supported versions
+
+Security fixes are issued against the latest minor release line on Maven Central. While codeiq is pre-1.0 (`0.x.y`) only the **latest** released `0.MINOR.x` line receives backports; older minor lines are EOL the moment a new minor ships.
+
+| Version line | Status |
+|---|---|
+| `0.1.x` | Supported (current) |
+| `< 0.1.0` | Unsupported |
+
+`-SNAPSHOT` builds are development snapshots; they do not receive security fixes by themselves — you should be tracking the latest tagged release.
+
+## Reporting a vulnerability
+
+Please **do not open a public GitHub issue** for security problems.
+
+Use one of:
+
+- **GitHub private vulnerability report** — preferred. Open `https://github.com/RandomCodeSpace/codeiq/security/advisories/new` (you must be signed in to GitHub). The advisory channel is monitored by the maintainer.
+- **Email** — `ak.nitrr13@gmail.com`. Put `[codeiq security]` in the subject so the report is triaged ahead of normal mail.
+
+Please include:
+
+- The codeiq version (`java -jar code-iq-*-cli.jar version` or `pom.xml` coordinate).
+- The shortest reproducer you can produce — a CLI command or test case is ideal.
+- Your assessment of impact (e.g., RCE, path traversal, info-disclosure, DoS).
+- Whether the issue is in a transitive dependency (please name the dependency + advisory ID if known).
+
+## What you can expect
+
+- **Acknowledgement** within 72 hours.
+- **Initial triage** within 7 days, with a severity rating (CVSS v3.1) and an indicative remediation timeline.
+- **Coordinated disclosure** — we will agree on a public-disclosure date with the reporter; default is 90 days from triage, sooner for low-impact / already-public issues.
+- **Credit** in the GHSA advisory and `CHANGELOG.md` (unless the reporter requests anonymity).
+
+We do not currently run a paid bug bounty.
+
+## Scope
+
+In-scope:
+
+- The codeiq CLI (`code-iq-*-cli.jar`).
+- The library JAR (`io.github.randomcodespace.iq:code-iq`).
+- The bundled REST API + MCP server (`serve` subcommand) — including path traversal, authn/authz, deserialisation, request smuggling, and SSRF.
+- The bundled React UI assets shipped inside the JAR.
+- The pipeline cache (H2) and graph store (Neo4j Embedded) — including local privilege escalation and data tampering.
+
+Out of scope:
+
+- Vulnerabilities that require pre-existing local code execution on the developer's machine (we ship as a developer tool — by definition you trust the code you point it at).
+- Public-internet attack surface — codeiq does not expose any service to the public internet by default; deploying the `serve` endpoint behind hostile reverse-proxies is out of scope.
+- Findings in third-party services we do not control (Maven Central, GitHub itself, SonarCloud, etc.) — please report those upstream.
+
+## Hardening references
+
+- [`shared/runbooks/engineering-standards.md`](shared/runbooks/engineering-standards.md) — CVE policy and quality gates.
+- [`shared/runbooks/rollback.md`](shared/runbooks/rollback.md) §6 — secret rotation flow.
+- `.github/workflows/scorecard.yml` — OpenSSF Scorecard supply-chain checks.
+- `.github/workflows/codeql.yml` — code scanning (SARIF in the Security tab).
+- `.github/dependabot.yml` — automated dependency / GHA / Docker bumps.

Per-issue specifics live in the issue thread; per-component conventions live in [`/CLAUDE.md`](../../CLAUDE.md). This document is what the runbooks ([`release.md`](release.md), [`rollback.md`](rollback.md), [`first-time-setup.md`](first-time-setup.md)) reference for "what counts as done."
+
+The rule of last resort: **`/home/dev/.claude/rules/*.md` wins.** This file does not contradict it; it specialises it for codeiq.
+
+---
+
+## 1. Quality gates (hard / non-negotiable)
+
+| Gate | Threshold | Where it runs | Failure action |
+|---|---|---|---|
+| Unit + integration tests | All pass | `mvn verify` (CI + local) | Block merge |
+| JaCoCo coverage | ≥ 85% line, ≥ 75% branch (project-wide, post-exclusions) | `jacoco-maven-plugin` rule in `pom.xml` | Block merge |
+| SonarCloud Quality Gate | `Passed` (`Sonar way` profile + 80% new-code coverage) | `ci-java.yml` | Block merge |
+| SpotBugs | Zero High/Critical findings; `spotbugs-exclude.xml` justified per-entry | `mvn spotbugs:check` | Block merge |
+| OWASP Dependency-Check | No High/Critical CVEs (`failBuildOnCVSS=7`); Medium tracked | `mvn dependency-check:check` (CI nightly + on `release-java.yml`) | Block release |
+| OSV-Scanner | Clean, or every finding has a justification commit on file | weekly cron + on PR | Block release on High/Critical |
+| OpenSSF Scorecard | Best-effort; no hard score floor; `Pinned-Dependencies` is a soft target | `scorecard.yml` (push to `main` + weekly) | Surface in security tab; do **not** gate merge |
+| Signed commits | Every commit on `main` must verify | Branch protection + `gh api ... /commits/{sha}/check-runs` | Block merge |
+
+Coverage exclusions are enumerated in `pom.xml` `` config — only generated ANTLR sources, the `application/` Spring Boot main, and pure data records are excluded. Adding to that list requires TechLead sign-off.
+
+---
+
+## 2. Code style
+
+- **Java 25** — virtual threads, records, sealed types, pattern matching are first-class. Do not write defensive `instanceof` chains where pattern matching applies.
+- **No mutable state in detectors.** `@Component` beans are singletons; per-call state lives on method locals.
+- **UTF-8 everywhere** (`StandardCharsets.UTF_8` explicit, never the default).
+- **Determinism is enforced.** No `Set` iteration without `TreeSet`/`stream().sorted()`. No reliance on thread completion order. Every detector must have a determinism test (run twice → identical bytes).
+- **Property-key constants** — extract any string literal that appears in the same file 3+ times.
+- **Exception hygiene** — never catch `Exception` to hide it; always either rethrow with context or log at the right level.
+
+Formatting is handled by editor defaults (no auto-formatter committed). Reviewers will not nit on whitespace; they will block on convention drift.
+
+---
+
+## 3. Branch, commit, PR rules
+
+- Branch off `main`. Conventional-commit subjects (`feat:`, `fix:`, `chore:`, `refactor:`, `test:`, `docs:`, `perf:`).
+- One logical change per commit. Squash-merge is the only path into `main`.
+- Every commit ssh-signed (RAN-46 AC #2). Branch protection rejects unsigned commits.
+- PR title is a conventional-commit subject. Body contains:
+ - Linked Paperclip issue (e.g., `Closes RAN-42`).
+ - "Why" in 1–2 sentences (the diff covers "what").
+ - Tests / coverage notes if non-obvious.
+ - Rollback note if the change is risky.
+- No force-push to `main` ever. Force-push to feature branches is fine until the PR is open; once it is open, prefer additive commits so review threads stay anchored.
+
+---
+
+## 4. Testing tiers
+
+| Tier | What it tests | Where it lives | Speed budget |
+|---|---|---|---|
+| Unit | Pure logic, no I/O | `src/test/java/.../` next to the SUT | < 10 ms each |
+| Integration | Real H2 / real Neo4j (Embedded) / real filesystem | `src/test/java/.../analyzer/`, `.../graph/`, `.../e2e/` | < 5 s each |
+| E2E quality | Full pipeline against a real repo (Spring PetClinic, etc.) | `E2EQualityTest`, ground-truth files under `src/test/resources/e2e/` | Run on demand + nightly |
+
+Ground rules:
+- Test behaviour at the boundary; do not test private internals.
+- Every detector ships with: a positive case, a discriminator-guard negative case, a determinism case.
+- Flaky test = broken test. Fix in the same PR, quarantine with a tracked Paperclip issue, or delete.
+
+---
+
+## 5. Security
+
+- **Inputs** — every public-facing endpoint validates input at the boundary; parameterised queries only; output encoded by default.
+- **Path traversal** — anything that takes a user path goes through the canonical-path check pattern used by `/api/file` (see RAN-8 fix).
+- **Secrets** — never in code, config, or commit history. CI secrets are repo-level; rotation cadence is annual or on suspected exposure.
+- **CVE policy** — High/Critical → block; Medium → fix if a patched version exists, else document non-exploitability with TechLead sign-off; Low → tracked in the next dependency bump cycle.
+- **Vulnerability reporting** — see [`/SECURITY.md`](../../SECURITY.md). Private disclosure only.
+
+---
+
+## 6. Performance
+
+- Default to streaming and bounded concurrency. No unbounded queues, buffers, or virtual-thread fan-outs.
+- Every external call has a timeout and a cancellation path.
+- Performance-sensitive paths (`Analyzer`, `GraphStore.bulkSave`, `LayerClassifier`) have a microbenchmark or a regression-detection test before they ship.
+- "Make it correct, then make it fast" — but data-structure and query-shape decisions must be performance-aware up front (see `/home/dev/.claude/rules/performance.md`).
+
+---
+
+## 7. Build & distribution
+
+- Vendor what you can; deterministic builds (`mvn -B -ntp clean verify`) are the contract.
+- No public-CDN runtime fetches, no auto-update phone-home, no telemetry default-on.
+- GitHub Actions are pinned by commit SHA in every workflow. Rationale: OpenSSF Scorecard `Pinned-Dependencies` and supply-chain integrity.
+- Container artifacts (when added) build from a minimal/distroless base, are pushed to GHCR with provenance attestations, and are pinned by digest at consumer sites.
+
+---
+
+## 8. Documentation
+
+- `/CLAUDE.md` is the architecture + conventions SSoT for code-touching changes.
+- `/AGENTS.md` (repo root) is the entry-point for agent collaborators.
+- Every runbook lives under `shared/runbooks/`. Adding a new runbook requires updating this file's References section.
+- ADRs (`docs/adr/NNN-title.md`) for any decision that changes a contract: persistence, public API surface, deployment shape.
+
+---
+
+## 9. References
+
+- `/CLAUDE.md` — architecture and conventions.
+- `/SECURITY.md` — disclosure policy.
+- `shared/runbooks/release.md`, `rollback.md`, `first-time-setup.md`.
+- `/home/dev/.claude/rules/*.md` — global engineering rules (parent SSoT).
+- `pom.xml` — quality-gate plugin wiring (`jacoco`, `spotbugs`, `dependency-check`, `central-publishing`).
+- `.github/workflows/` — CI / release / security automations.

+# First-time Setup — codeiq
+
+> Get a fresh contributor (human or agent) from a clean machine to a green local build, signed-commit-ready, in one pass. Pairs with [`release.md`](release.md), [`rollback.md`](rollback.md), and [`engineering-standards.md`](engineering-standards.md).
+
+---
+
+## 0. What you'll have at the end
+
+- Repo cloned at `~/projects/codeiq` with the offline build path verified.
+- Java 25 + Maven 3.9 on PATH.
+- A signed-commit configuration (ssh) bound to your `id_ed25519` key.
+- `mvn verify` exits 0 on `main`.
+- `codeiq` CLI runs end-to-end against this repo as a smoke target.
+
+If any step fails, stop and follow the troubleshooting note inline — do not "fix forward" against a partially-set-up machine.
+
+---
+
+## 1. System prerequisites
+
+| Tool | Min version | Notes |
+|---|---|---|
+| Java | 25 | Required by `pom.xml` `maven-enforcer-plugin` (`[25,)`). Use Adoptium / Temurin. |
+| Maven | 3.9.x | Newer minor versions are fine; do not use 4.x snapshots. |
+| Git | 2.34+ | Required for ssh-format commit signing (`gpg.format ssh`). |
+| OpenSSH | 8.0+ | Bundles `ssh-keygen -Y verify` used by `commit.gpgsign=true`. |
+| Node.js | 20.x LTS | Only needed for the bundled React UI — `mvn package` shells out to it via the frontend Maven plugin. |
+| `gh` CLI | 2.40+ | For PR/release plumbing. |
+
+Verify in one shot:
+
+```bash
+java --version | head -1 # openjdk 25 ...
+mvn -v | head -1 # Apache Maven 3.9.x
+git --version # git version 2.x
+ssh -V # OpenSSH_8.x or newer
+node --version # v20.x
+gh --version | head -1 # gh version 2.x
+```
+
+---
+
+## 2. Clone and configure
+
+```bash
+git clone git@github.com:RandomCodeSpace/codeiq.git ~/projects/codeiq
+cd ~/projects/codeiq
+```
+
+Apply the repo-local signed-commit config (this is what RAN-46 AC #2 codifies):
+
+```bash
+./scripts/setup-git-signed.sh
+```
+
+That script is idempotent and is the single SSoT for the per-repo `git config --local` block. It writes `user.name`, `user.email`, `user.signingkey`, `gpg.format=ssh`, `commit.gpgsign=true`, `tag.gpgsign=true` and verifies your public key resolves on disk. If you do not have an `id_ed25519` keypair, generate one (`ssh-keygen -t ed25519 -C "you@example.com"`) and upload the **public** key to your GitHub account under `Settings → SSH and GPG keys → New SSH key → Key type: Signing Key` before re-running.
+
+Sanity-check the config:
+
+```bash
+git config --local --get user.signingkey # should print a path ending in .pub
+git config --local --get commit.gpgsign # should print "true"
+echo test | git commit-tree HEAD^{tree} -m test --gpg-sign \
+ | git verify-commit --raw - # should report "Good signature"
+```
+
+---
+
+## 3. Build, test, run
+
+The standard offline path is:
+
+```bash
+mvn -B -ntp -DskipTests=false clean verify
+```
+
+This runs the full pipeline: unit tests, integration tests, jacoco coverage gate (≥85%), SpotBugs, OWASP Dependency-Check, and the executable CLI JAR build. Expect ~2-3 min on a warm cache.
+
+For a faster inner loop while iterating:
+
+```bash
+mvn -B -ntp -DskipTests test # unit + integration, no plugins
+mvn -B -ntp -Dtest=SomeDetectorTest test # single test
+mvn -B -ntp -DskipTests=true package # JAR only
+```
+
+Smoke-test the CLI end-to-end against this repo:
+
+```bash
+java -jar target/code-iq-*-cli.jar version
+java -jar target/code-iq-*-cli.jar index .
+java -jar target/code-iq-*-cli.jar enrich .
+java -jar target/code-iq-*-cli.jar serve . & # opens http://localhost:8080
+curl -fsS http://localhost:8080/api/stats > /dev/null && echo OK
+kill %1
+```
+
+---
+
+## 4. Optional: full quality gate locally
+
+If you want to mirror the CI gate before pushing:
+
+```bash
+mvn -B -ntp clean verify # tests + jacoco
+mvn -B -ntp spotbugs:check # static analysis gate
+mvn -B -ntp dependency-check:check -DfailBuildOnCVSS=7 # CVE gate
+```
+
+Sonar runs only in CI (the token is not on local machines by design).
+
+---
+
+## 5. Branch / PR workflow
+
+Create branches off `main`:
+
+```bash
+git fetch origin main
+git switch -c / origin/main
+```
+
+Conventional-commit subjects (`feat:`, `fix:`, `chore:`, `refactor:`, `test:`, `docs:`). One logical change per commit. Sign every commit (the local config makes this automatic). Push and open a PR:
+
+```bash
+git push -u origin HEAD
+gh pr create --fill --base main
+```
+
+Branch protection on `main` requires:
+- A Codex review approval from TechLead (or delegate).
+- CI green: `ci-java.yml`, Sonar Quality Gate, Scorecard workflow, signed-commits status check.
+- All commits in the PR signed.
+
+Force-push to `main` is disabled. Direct pushes are disabled. Squash-merge is the default and only path.
+
+---
+
+## 6. Where to look next
+
+- Architecture, layout, and convention SSoT: [`/CLAUDE.md`](../../CLAUDE.md).
+- Coverage / Sonar / CVE policy: [`engineering-standards.md`](engineering-standards.md).
+- Releasing: [`release.md`](release.md).
+- Rolling back a bad release: [`rollback.md`](rollback.md).
+- Security reporting: [`/SECURITY.md`](../../SECURITY.md).
+
+If you hit anything that looks like a runtime gap (missing tool, broken hook, weird auth), open a Paperclip issue against `type:devx` rather than working around it locally — the bootstrap is meant to be reproducible.

+# Release Runbook — codeiq
+
+> **SSoT for shipping codeiq.** Owner: TechLead (until bootstrap completes); thereafter the engineer who owns the change. This runbook is the gate referenced by the bootstrap precondition (`RAN-46`): it MUST exist on `main` before any product `RAN-*` issue can leave `backlog`.
+
+---
+
+## 1. Release surfaces
+
+codeiq ships in three forms. A "release" updates **all three** in lockstep:
+
+| Surface | Artifact | Distribution |
+|---|---|---|
+| Library JAR | `io.github.randomcodespace.iq:code-iq` (POM packaging) | Maven Central via Sonatype Central Portal |
+| Executable CLI JAR | `target/code-iq--cli.jar` | GitHub Release asset |
+| Source tag | `v` (annotated, ssh-signed) | Git tag pushed to `RandomCodeSpace/codeiq` |
+
+Versioning is [SemVer](https://semver.org/). Pre-`1.0.0` releases use `0.MINOR.PATCH`; breaking changes bump MINOR.
+
+Snapshot artifacts (`-SNAPSHOT`) are published from `main` by `beta-java.yml` to OSSRH snapshots; consumers must opt into the snapshot repo. Snapshots are **not** releases.
+
+---
+
+## 2. Pre-release checklist
+
+Run BEFORE creating the tag:
+
+1. `main` is green: `gh run list --branch main --workflow ci-java.yml --limit 1` → `success`.
+2. SonarCloud Quality Gate: `gh api /repos/RandomCodeSpace/codeiq/actions/runs?branch=main --jq '.workflow_runs[0].conclusion'` and SonarCloud project page both green.
+3. Coverage ≥ 85% (jacoco rule + Sonar new-code ≥ 80% — see [`engineering-standards.md`](engineering-standards.md)).
+4. Dependency audit clean: `mvn dependency-check:check -DfailBuildOnCVSS=7` exits 0; OSV-Scanner workflow latest run green.
+5. SpotBugs clean: `mvn spotbugs:check` exits 0.
+6. CHANGELOG entry drafted under `[Unreleased]` and ready to promote.
+7. Working copy of `main` is clean (`git status --porcelain` empty).
+8. Local signing key present: `ssh-add -L | grep -F "$(cat ~/.ssh/id_ed25519.pub | awk '{print $2}')"` — required for the annotated tag.
+
+---
+
+## 3. Cut a release (canonical path)
+
+Driven by `release-java.yml` triggered on a `v*` tag push.
+
+```bash
+# 1. Promote CHANGELOG
+$EDITOR CHANGELOG.md # move [Unreleased] → [X.Y.Z] - YYYY-MM-DD
+
+# 2. Bump pom.xml version
+mvn versions:set -DnewVersion=X.Y.Z -DgenerateBackupPoms=false
+
+# 3. Commit and push
+git add pom.xml CHANGELOG.md
+git commit -S -m "chore(release): X.Y.Z"
+git push origin main
+
+# 4. Tag (annotated + ssh-signed) and push
+git tag -s vX.Y.Z -m "codeiq X.Y.Z"
+git push origin vX.Y.Z
+```
+
+`release-java.yml` then:
+1. Builds with `mvn -B -ntp clean verify` (full test suite + jacoco gate).
+2. Signs artifacts with `MAVEN_GPG_*` secrets.
+3. Publishes to Maven Central via `central-publishing-maven-plugin`.
+4. Uploads `code-iq-X.Y.Z-cli.jar` to a new GitHub Release.
+5. Records SBOM (CycloneDX) and provenance (SLSA) as Release assets.
+
+Track it: `gh run watch $(gh run list --workflow release-java.yml --limit 1 --json databaseId --jq '.[0].databaseId')`.
+
+---
+
+## 4. Post-release verification
+
+Within 30 minutes of the release workflow finishing:
+
+1. **Maven Central index**: `curl -fsS "https://repo.maven.apache.org/maven2/io/github/randomcodespace/iq/code-iq/X.Y.Z/code-iq-X.Y.Z.pom" | head -20`.
+2. **Smoke install**: in a clean directory, `mvn dependency:get -Dartifact=io.github.randomcodespace.iq:code-iq:X.Y.Z` succeeds.
+3. **CLI smoke**: download the GH Release JAR, run `java -jar code-iq-X.Y.Z-cli.jar version` and `java -jar code-iq-X.Y.Z-cli.jar analyze --help` — both exit 0.
+4. **GitHub Release** is marked `Latest` and links the changelog section.
+5. **codebase.repoUrl** in paperclip Project still resolves (`git ls-remote git@github.com:RandomCodeSpace/codeiq.git HEAD`).
+
+If any of (1)–(4) fails, [`rollback.md`](rollback.md) applies.
+
+---
+
+## 5. Hot-fix patch release (`X.Y.Z+1`)
+
+1. Branch from the release tag: `git switch -c hotfix/X.Y.Z+1 vX.Y.Z`.
+2. Apply the minimal fix; add a regression test.
+3. Open PR against `main`; merge with squash.
+4. Rebase the hotfix branch onto the post-merge `main` if needed; cut the tag from `main` per §3.
+
+Hotfixes do **not** skip the pre-release checklist.
+
+---
+
+## 6. Required GitHub secrets (org/repo level)
+
+| Secret | Used by | Owner |
+|---|---|---|
+| `SONAR_TOKEN` | `ci-java.yml` (Sonar gate) | TechLead |
+| `OSS_NEXUS_USER` / `OSS_NEXUS_PASS` | `release-java.yml` (Sonatype Central) | TechLead |
+| `MAVEN_GPG_KEY_ID` / `MAVEN_GPG_PASSPHRASE` / `MAVEN_GPG_PRIVATE_KEY` | `release-java.yml` (artifact signing) | TechLead |
+| `CODEQL_*` | n/a — uses `GITHUB_TOKEN` | n/a |
+
+Rotation policy: any compromise → rotate immediately + audit recent `release-java.yml` runs. Routine rotation: annually, recorded in [`engineering-standards.md`](engineering-standards.md).
+
+---
+
+## 7. Auth-blocked steps (escalation path)
+
+If a release step requires auth the runtime cannot satisfy, do **not** improvise:
+
+- Sonatype Central Portal namespace re-claim → block on board (human OAuth).
+- GitHub org admin escalation (e.g., re-enable a disabled secret) → block on `aksOps` GitHub owner.
+- OpenSSF Best Practices badge updates (if the badge is required for a Release announcement) → block on board to log into bestpractices.dev.
+
+In all cases: PATCH the relevant Paperclip issue to `blocked` with the exact ask, and `@`-mention the board.
+
+---

+# Rollback Runbook — codeiq
+
+> **Purpose:** restore a known-good state when a `main` push, a release, or a CI/security change has broken the project. Owner: the engineer who shipped the change; TechLead is escalation. Pair this with [`release.md`](release.md).
+
+The rule of thumb: **revert first, root-cause second.** Users on Maven Central cannot un-install a bad version, so the cheap path is always to publish a clean follow-up rather than try to "fix forward" under pressure.
+
+---
+
+## 1. Decide the scope
+
+| Symptom | Section |
+|---|---|
+| `main` is broken (CI red, build won't compile) | §2 — revert merge |
+| A release is bad on Maven Central / GH Releases | §3 — release rollback |
+| Branch protection / CI / security workflow change broke things | §4 — config rollback |
+| Embedded Neo4j cache or `.codeiq/graph` corrupted on a user box | §5 — data rollback |
+| A secret was exposed | §6 — secret rotation |
+
+If you are not sure, default to §2 and revert.
+
+---
+
+## 2. Revert a bad merge to `main`
+
+```bash
+git fetch origin main
+git switch -c revert/ origin/main
+git revert -m 1 # for squash merges, target the squash commit
+git push -u origin revert/
+gh pr create --base main --fill --title "revert: " --label "type:revert"
+gh pr merge --squash --auto
+```
+
+Then watch `ci-java.yml` go green and confirm SonarCloud + downstream consumers recover.
+
+**Never** force-push `main`; the bootstrap branch protection forbids it and history rewrites would break every consumer's `git pull`.
+
+---
+
+## 3. Roll back a release
+
+You cannot delete or overwrite a Maven Central artifact (Sonatype policy). The only valid rollback is a **new patch release** that returns the behaviour to the prior version.
+
+1. **Block downloads of the bad version** *(best-effort)*:
+ - GitHub Release: `gh release edit vX.Y.Z --prerelease --notes "Marked pre-release: see vX.Y.(Z+1) for fix"`.
+ - SECURITY.md / README badges: add a one-line advisory linking the follow-up version.
+2. **Cut a hotfix patch release** per [`release.md`](release.md) §5. The hotfix MUST contain only the minimum changes needed to restore the prior behaviour, plus a regression test.
+3. **GHSA advisory** if the bad version contains a security regression: `gh api -X POST repos/RandomCodeSpace/codeiq/security-advisories -f severity=high -f summary="..." -f description="..."`. Coordinate with the OpenSSF Scorecard advisory feed.
+4. **Update CHANGELOG.md** under `[X.Y.(Z+1)]` with `### Fixed (rollback)` and link the bad-version commit + the GHSA.
+
+Do NOT delete the bad git tag. Yanking tags after they have been seen by consumers breaks `git fetch --tags` and reproducible builds.
+
+---
+
+## 4. Roll back CI / branch protection / security config
+
+These are driven by `gh api` calls (see RAN-46 inventory). They are not in version control by themselves, so rollback is by re-running the prior call.
+
+- **Branch protection**: snapshot before any change with `gh api /repos/RandomCodeSpace/codeiq/branches/main/protection > /tmp/bp-before.json`. To roll back: `cat /tmp/bp-before.json | gh api -X PUT /repos/RandomCodeSpace/codeiq/branches/main/protection --input -`.
+- **CodeQL default setup**: re-toggle via Repository Settings → Code security → Code scanning. The disabled state is the safe default.
+- **Dependabot security updates**: `gh api -X PUT /repos/RandomCodeSpace/codeiq/automated-security-fixes` to enable, `-X DELETE` to disable.
+- **Workflow files** (`.github/workflows/*.yml`): revert via §2 — they are version-controlled.
+
+If a change to branch protection prevents you from merging the rollback PR (e.g., you made the wrong status check required and it never passes), `aksOps` is the only account with bypass; coordinate over the board channel before bypassing — every bypass is logged.
+
+---
+
+## 5. User-side data rollback (analysis cache / Neo4j store)
+
+For users who hit a bad cache shape after upgrading:
+
+```bash
+codeiq cache clear # drops .codeiq/cache/*.h2.db
+rm -rf .codeiq/graph/graph.db # drops the enriched Neo4j store
+codeiq index # rebuild
+codeiq enrich
+```
+
+The `AnalysisCache.CACHE_VERSION` constant must be bumped in any release that changes the cache schema. If a release fails to bump it, rollback per §3 and ship a follow-up that bumps it.
+
+---
+
+## 6. Secret rotation
+
+If a CI secret leaked (push protection alert, secret scanning hit, or external report):
+
+1. Rotate at the source: GitHub Settings → Secrets, regenerate at the upstream provider (Sonatype, Sonar, etc.).
+2. Re-run the latest failing workflows after rotation: `gh run rerun `.
+3. Force a new release if the leaked secret signed an artifact (re-cut the release with a fresh GPG key).
+4. Open a tracking issue (`type:security`, `priority:high`) with the rotation timestamp, scope of exposure, and affected runs.
+
+---
+
+## 7. After every rollback
+
+- Add a one-line entry to `CHANGELOG.md` describing what was rolled back and why.
+- Open a follow-up Paperclip issue tagged `type:postmortem` referencing the rolled-back PR/release. The postmortem MUST land before the next release.
+- Update [`engineering-standards.md`](engineering-standards.md) if the rollback exposed a missing CI gate or test layer.

Subject: [PATCH 02/13] chore(bootstrap): RAN-46 wire 85% jacoco gate,
dep-check CVSS>=7, SHA-pin remaining actions
MIME-Version: 1.0
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8
Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit
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.

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).

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).

+### 7.1 Deploy targets (RAN-46 AC #10 ruling — option a)
+
+codeiq's deploy surface is the **Maven Central + GitHub Releases** pipeline. There is intentionally no static-CDN frontend or always-on hosted backend.
+
+Rationale (per @CEO's RAN-46 ruling):
+
+- codeiq ships as a single Java JAR (`code-iq-*-cli.jar`). The React UI is bundled **inside** that JAR and served via Spring Boot's static resource handler — there is no separately deployable frontend.
+- The intended runtime is the developer's own machine (`codeiq index → enrich → serve`). There is no shared SaaS surface that needs a VPS — codeiq's value is scanning *your* code on *your* machine.
+- The literal AC #10 wording ("frontend → static host / CDN; backend → container registry + VPS rollout") was written for a generic product template that does not match codeiq's shape; the deploy surface is the existing release pipeline instead.
+
+The pipeline:
+
+| Cadence | Workflow | Artifact destination |
+|---|---|---|
+| `workflow_dispatch` (beta) | `.github/workflows/beta-java.yml` | Sonatype Central beta + GitHub pre-release |
+| `vX.Y.Z` tag push (GA) | `.github/workflows/release-java.yml` | Sonatype Central GA + GitHub Release |
+
+Hello-world / pipeline proof: `git tag -l 'v0.0.1-beta.*' | wc -l` is non-zero (47+ beta tags as of the AC #10 ruling) and `gh release list` shows the corresponding GitHub pre-releases. AC #10 is satisfied by the existing pipeline; no new deploy scaffold is required.
+
+If the product later needs a hosted demo or container surface, that is a **new RAN-* issue**, not a re-open of RAN-46.

From: Amit Kumar
Date: Sat, 25 Apr 2026 10:23:42 +0000
Subject: [PATCH 05/13] fix(bootstrap): address Reviewer findings on PR #74
(RAN-47)
MIME-Version: 1.0
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8
Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit
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 `` 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.

A. dependency-check NVD-API DB-connection error on e71ccdb broke `build`
without actually finding a CVE. Add false
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.

Subject: [PATCH 10/13] fix(bootstrap): R5 reviewer findings + log4j-api
umbrella CPE bump (RAN-47)
MIME-Version: 1.0
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8
Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit
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.

pom.xml declared the plugin but with no `` 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`.

Subject: [PATCH 12/13] docs(bootstrap): R6-1 first-time-setup multi-format
signing (RAN-47 67e3c224)
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.

Subject: [PATCH 13/13] ci(bootstrap): pre-warm NVD cache + retry knobs to
defeat dep-check NPE
MIME-Version: 1.0
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8
Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit
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).
