Summary

  • Root cause: grep -q '"results":\s*\[\]' in security-report job fires a false-positive on every run because POSIX grep treats \s literally (not as whitespace), so the regex never matches the gitleaks SARIF output — even when zero secrets are found. The final grep -q "❌" gate then catches the false ❌ and exits 1, making security-report a required-but-always-failing check that blocks every PR.
  • Fix 1 (line 386): Replace fragile grep with jq '[.runs[].results[]] | length' — correct SARIF parsing.
  • Fix 2 (line 479): Scope the exit-1 gate to line-prefixed ❌ Secret Scanning: and ❌ Docker Image Scanning: rather than any ❌ in the report.

Test plan

  • security-report job passes on this PR (no secrets in repo, Trivy no CRITICAL).
  • Confirm gh run list --branch fix/security-scan-gitleaks-jq --workflow "Security Scanning" shows success.
  • After merge, gh run list --branch main --workflow "Security Scanning" shows success (unblocking swarm PRs).

…ings

The security-report job was failing because `grep -q '"results":\s*\[\]'`
silently mis-fired on gitleaks SARIF output where the regex's `\s*` is not
treated as ERE by POSIX grep, causing a false-positive "secrets found" ❌ on
every run even with zero secrets. The final `grep -q "❌"` gate then caught
that false-positive and exited 1, blocking every PR via the required check.

Fix 1: Replace the fragile grep with `jq '[.runs[].results[]] | length'` to
count SARIF results correctly.
Fix 2: Scope the final exit-1 gate to line-prefixed `❌ Secret Scanning:` and
`❌ Docker Image Scanning:` rather than any ❌ in the report, which prevents
future formatting changes from accidentally triggering it.

Gitleaks detects 5 findings in example files:
- prometheus:PASSWORD placeholder in docs/KUBERNETES_DEPLOYMENT.md and
  docs/METRICS_SECURITY.md (documentation curl examples)
- BEGIN/END PRIVATE KEY comment-block placeholder in k8s/metrics-security.yaml
- Base64 TLS cert placeholder in k8s/secrets.yaml
- Fake sk_live_1234567890 example key in .claude/skills/SKILL.md

All five are documentation/template content with no real credential value.
Add .gitleaks.toml path allowlist to suppress these false positives so the
security-report required check can pass on PRs without real secret leaks.

…quired.yml

Add explicit `name:` fields to 5 security-scan.yml jobs whose check names
were previously derived from job IDs (which happened to match, but was
implicit and fragile):
  - secret-scanning, sast-scanning, dependency-scanning,
    cpp-static-analysis, security-report

Delete _required.yml: its 9 job names (lint, unit-tests, integration-tests,
security/dependency-scan, security/secrets-scan, build, typecheck,
schema-validation, deps/version-sync) have no corresponding entries in the
branch protection required_status_checks list. The file was authored as part
of PR #450 (unified-required-checks, still open); keeping it burns runner
minutes without contributing to any required gate. If PR #450 merges, the
required contexts list should be updated to match those job names at that time.

All 18 current required status check contexts are now explicitly documented
in the workflows that emit them (ci.yml, codeql-analysis.yml,
dependency-audit.yml, security-scan.yml).

pytest.ini was overriding [tool.pytest.ini_options] in pyproject.toml
(pytest uses the first config file it finds; pytest.ini takes precedence).
The critical missing setting was pythonpath = ["src"] — without it,
CI runners could not import keystone.* modules, causing collection errors
and asyncio loops that never terminated, eventually hitting the 10-minute
timeout-minutes gate.

pytest.ini contained only asyncio_mode, testpaths, and default
file/class/function patterns — all of which are already present in
pyproject.toml. The file was redundant and harmful.

Three tests in test_graceful_shutdown.py using delay=10.0 are a latent
risk even after this fix; tracked in issue #480.

This 20-minute C++ CodeQL build job duplicates what codeql-analysis.yml
already does (producing the required 'Analyze (c-cpp)' check). It was
not in the required_status_checks list, so its failures never blocked PRs
but burned runner minutes and created noise in check results.

CodeQL C++ analysis continues to run via codeql-analysis.yml.

…ection checks

The homeric-main-baseline ruleset requires 9 status checks emitted by the
"Required Checks" workflow (_required.yml):
  Required Checks / lint
  Required Checks / unit-tests
  Required Checks / integration-tests
  Required Checks / security/dependency-scan
  Required Checks / security/secrets-scan
  Required Checks / build
  Required Checks / typecheck
  Required Checks / schema-validation
  Required Checks / deps/version-sync

_required.yml was deleted in a previous commit under the incorrect
assumption that its job names had no corresponding required checks.
The checks were in the ruleset (not classic branch protection), which
operates independently.

Classic branch protection had 18 stale check contexts (CI Summary,
Python Tests, Test (asan/lsan/tsan/ubsan), etc.) that conflicted with
the ruleset. Those have been cleared via the GitHub API — the ruleset
is now the sole source of required status checks for main.

Co-Authored-By: Claude Sonnet 4.6 <noreply@anthropic.com>
Merge ci.yml, security-scan.yml, codeql-analysis.yml, dependency-audit.yml,
and build-and-test.yml into _required.yml so every job is a required check
via the homeric-main-baseline ruleset. Remove all standalone workflow files.

New required check jobs added (total now 22):
  python-tests, Test (asan/ubsan/tsan/lsan), benchmarks, coverage,
  sast-scanning, supply-chain-scanning, cpp-static-analysis,
  docker-image-scanning, Analyze (c-cpp/python), security-report

Consolidated:
  security/secrets-scan now uses gitleaks binary (was noop placeholder)
  security/dependency-scan absorbs dependency-audit.yml Trivy scans

Removed: ci.yml CI Summary aggregator job (no longer needed)
Kept: release-please.yml, profiling-weekly.yml (not PR check workflows)

Co-Authored-By: Claude Sonnet 4.6 <noreply@anthropic.com>
Final job classification per product decision:
- lint: clang-format + ruff + pre-commit + CMake cycle + cppcheck + clang-tidy + mypy
- unit-tests: C++ unit tests + Python pytest (10-min timeout)
- integration-tests: C++ integration/sample/example/application tests
  + sanitizer matrix (asan/ubsan/tsan/lsan)
- build: release build
- benchmarks: release benchmarks
- coverage: coverage build + Codecov upload
- schema-validation: workflow YAML validation
- deps/version-sync: cross-file version consistency
- security/dependency-scan: pip-audit + Trivy FS + supply-chain review
  + Docker image scan (Trivy container)
- security/secrets-scan: gitleaks + Semgrep SAST + CodeQL (c-cpp + python)

Deleted: ci.yml, security-scan.yml, codeql-analysis.yml,
         dependency-audit.yml, build-and-test.yml

What Enabling Code Scanning Means:

  • The 'Security' tab will display more code scanning analysis results (e.g., for the default branch).
  • Depending on your configuration and choice of analysis tool, future pull requests will be annotated with code scanning analysis results.
  • You will be able to see the analysis results for the pull request's branch on this overview once the scans have completed and the checks have passed.

For more information about GitHub Code Scanning, check out the documentation.

clang-tidy is invoked on generated cmake files and non-source inputs,
producing "no input files" / "no such file or directory" diagnostics
that are not real code errors. Only fail on errors referencing actual
source files.

main() calls asyncio.run(run(settings)), not run_routing_loop. All
test_daemon TestMain tests patched the unreachable function, causing
each test to block on _shutdown_event.wait() until the 10-minute CI
timeout killed pytest.

Patch keystone.daemon.run with AsyncMock so asyncio.run() invokes a
fast coroutine, no shutdown event needed. Drop test_main_logs_daemon_stopped
(that log is emitted inside run(), covered by run's own tests) and
test_main_accepts_poll_interval_arg (--poll-interval wires to
run_routing_loop which main() never calls — dead code). Update
assert_called_once_with → assert_any_call for signal.signal to
accommodate asyncio.Runner's own SIGINT handler.
