Opts this repo into the shared AI governance gate from KyPython/ai-governance (pinned to a03111bb4afb5128f9dc731fdcb4d384c8e60e42).

  • .github/workflows/ai-governance.yml calls the reusable gate (install, lint, type-check, test, build, policy, gitleaks) on PRs and pushes to main.
  • AGENTS.md gains the canonical AI-GOVERNANCE:v1 section all agents must follow.

Systems thinking: event = AI agents open PRs here; pattern = governance lived only in LamportLogic; structure = no shared, versioned gate; intervention = SHA-pinned reusable gate + required checks; leading indicator = every PR shows ai-governance / verdict; transfer = same opt-in for every repo.

Once ai-governance / verdict has passed, the default branch is protected: PR required, this repo's CI + ai-governance / verdict required, strict, linear history, conversation resolution, no force-push/deletion, enforce on admins. Ky merges.

Summary by CodeRabbit

  • Chores
    • Added automated governance checks for pull requests and changes pushed to the main branch.
    • Updated repository review ownership and guidance for contribution, validation, and release workflows.
    • Clarified that successful repository and governance checks, followed by human review and approval, are required before merging or deployment. Deployments are limited to the main branch.
    • Configured governance workflow runs to avoid canceling in-progress checks except when a pull request is updated.

📝 Walkthrough

Walkthrough

The repository adds agent governance rules, assigns all paths to a human reviewer, and adds a GitHub Actions workflow that calls a pinned reusable governance workflow on pull requests and pushes to main.

Changes

Repository governance

Layer / File(s) Summary
Governance rules and review ownership
AGENTS.md, .github/CODEOWNERS
AGENTS.md defines rules for agent work, validation, security, and deployment. .github/CODEOWNERS assigns all paths to KyPython and states that human review is required.
Governance workflow
.github/workflows/ai-governance.yml
The workflow runs on pull requests targeting main and pushes to main. It sets read-only contents permission and concurrency keyed by Git ref. It calls a reusable workflow pinned to a commit and passes Node.js version 22; other listed inputs are commented out.

Priority: ⬇️ Low

Estimated code review effort: 2 (Simple) | ~10 minutes

Merge Risk | 🟡 Moderate · up to 646ba

Merge Risk: 🟡 Moderate · up to 646ba

Clarify or enforce the stated coder-role rule and confirm the intended governance revision before merging.

Security Architecture Review

Security architecture risk: 🔵 Low · up to 646ba

The new governance workflow is pinned to a commit and requests only read access. No concrete privilege escalation is established, but the shared workflow’s implementation and actual merge/deployment enforcement remain unverified.

Retained concerns
No architecture-level concerns identified.

Security review details

Security Blast Radius

  • inferred — The directly evidenced execution scope is this repository’s PR and main-branch governance runs. The caller requests read-only repository contents access and passes no explicit secrets. Broader runner, credential, or downstream exposure cannot be determined without the reusable workflow.

Trust Boundaries and Controls

  • observed — Repository events now invoke externally maintained workflow code through an immutable SHA pin. The caller uses pull_request, not pull_request_target, and limits token permissions to contents: read. These constrain caller authority but do not verify the callee’s handling of untrusted code or metadata.
  • observed — CODEOWNERS declares repository-wide human ownership, while policy reserves merging to Ky. These declarations do not themselves establish configured required reviews, required checks, or protection against direct pushes.

Resilience and Maintainability Implications

  • observed — Policy protects governance files from unauthorized changes, requires provider-side secret rotation before history cleanup, and requires human authorization for destructive commands. These are documented recovery and control-drift safeguards, not verified runtime restrictions.

Hardening Proposals

  • proposed — Before treating the gate as mandatory, verify protections against the actual verdict check, human-review requirements, and the intended pinned revision. Verify that deployment authorization is tied to successful checks for the same revision and fails closed after cancellation or interruption.

Inline comments:
Review comments at @.github/workflows/ai-governance.yml:
- Line 26: Update the governance workflow reference in the `uses` entry to the
revision declared in the PR description, and make its adjacent comment match
that revision.

Review comments at @AGENTS.md:
- Line 16: Update the pinned gate or its caller so code PRs are rejected when
the author does not match the coder role; apply identity rejection to code
changes, not only spec-path changes, and preserve the existing spec checks.
