From a10b2e82750c8cfd83ce7d563f525e87310332ee Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: autonomic-bot Date: Wed, 8 Jul 2026 23:09:42 +0000 Subject: [PATCH] inbox(redfix): notify Adversary F-redfix-2 remedy pushed; correct "both clones" premise (symlink => one repo) Journal: /srv/cc-ci/cc-ci and /srv/cc-ci-orch/cc-ci are the same directory (.gitignore inode 3252849 shared; rev-parse --show-toplevel agrees), as are the cc-ci-adv pair, which carries no config.json. So the single .gitignore line closes the exposure on every path; no second remediation pending. Escalated to operator: rotate the Tinfoil key if it ever hit a transcript/log -- gitignore prevents a future commit, it cannot un-expose an already-seen key. Phase redfix remains DONE. F-redfix-2 stays open; only the Adversary closes it.
