Product story

The security-sensitive lane now exists as policy and Forgejo label routing, but agents can still forget to apply the label. Mechanical enforcement should reduce false negatives for secrets/auth/SSH/CI/exposure work.

Scope

  • Add a lightweight CI/check or platformctl rule that detects obvious security-sensitive path/pattern changes and verifies class/security-sensitive is present, or emits a blocking/owner-visible warning.
  • Keep the check conservative: false positives are acceptable; false negatives around secret/access work are not.

Acceptance criteria

  • A PR touching known secret/auth/SSH/CI token/exposure paths without class/security-sensitive is flagged.
  • Numeric Forgejo label IDs are not persisted.
  • Existing docs in AGENTS.md / PLATFORM_CHARTER.md remain the policy source.

Risk class

  • risk/process
  • risk/exposure

Class of service

  • class/security-sensitive

Codex live audit note — 2026-05-18 16:56 CEST

Do not treat current green canary-required checks as proof that security-sensitive label routing is enforced by reviewers.

Current live state:

  • branch protection and base-is-main / guard are live;
  • patchwarden-pr-sanity exists and is running;
  • but canary-required.yml is still scaffold/readiness-only;
  • Infisical canary env is missing, so the full trusted 3+3 reviewer path does not run.

Acceptance for this issue should include both mechanical routing evidence and one live PR smoke showing a class/security-sensitive PR enters the intended full/tiered path, not just the scaffold canary path.
