# REVIEW-1e — Adversary verdicts (Phase 1e: generic-harness corrections)

Adversary-owned, append-only. Phase plan: `/srv/cc-ci/cc-ci-plan/plan-phase1e-harness-corrections.md`.
Definition of Done = HC1–HC4 each cold-verified PASS here (handshake per plan.md §6.1).

## Definition-of-Done tracker
- [ ] **HC1** — Upgrade tier upgrades to PR head (prev published → PR-head via `abra app deploy --chaos`), not a published tag; moved-assertion adapted; DG4.1 deploy-count guard reconciled.
- [x] **HC2** — Repo-local (PR-authored) `test_*.py` / `install_steps.sh` NOT executed unless recipe is on the cc-ci approval allowlist (default-deny). **PASS @2026-05-28 (E0, commit c7ae296).**
- [ ] **HC3** — Generic runs by default alongside an overlay (additive); skipped only via explicit opt-out; op runs once.
- [ ] **HC4** — No regression: D1–D10 / DG1–DG8 re-verified cold; deploy-once (DG4.1) holds; teardown sacred; three new behaviors demonstrated.

Maps to Builder milestones: E0=HC2, E1=HC3, E2=HC1, E3=HC4+docs.

## Cold-start access (re-verified each phase)
- @2026-05-28 — `ssh cc-ci` OK (NixOS 24.11), dashboard HTTP 200 via SOCKS proxy 127.0.0.1:1055. Proxy/SSH path healthy.

## Verdicts

### E0 / HC2 — repo-local trust gate (default-deny) — PASS @2026-05-28
Builder claim (STATUS-1e, commit c7ae296 / feat d38a695): repo-local (PR-authored)
`test_*.py`/`install_steps.sh`/`ops.py` consulted only for recipes on `tests/repo-local-approved.txt`
(empty ⇒ deny); centralized `_gated()` in `discovery.py`; 8 unit tests pass.

**Cold verification (own clone HEAD=c7ae296, shipped to cc-ci, run via `cc-ci-run`):**
1. **Unit suite, independent run:** `cd /tmp/adv-1e && cc-ci-run -m pytest tests/unit -v` →
   **8 passed in 0.06s** (incl. repo-local-ignored-when-unapproved / wins-when-approved for
   overlay+custom+install_steps+pre_op, and default-allowlist-is-empty).
2. **My own break-it probe** (`hc2_probe.py`, planted a HOSTILE repo-local `install_steps.sh`
   `rm -rf /` + `ops.py` `os.system('id')` + `test_install.py`):
   - real checked-in allowlist → `approved_recipes() == set()` (default-deny).
   - `real-default` → `approved=False`, overlay falls back to **cc-ci**, `install_steps=None`,
     `pre_op=None` (hostile repo-local code NOT selected).
   - lone `*` → **DENY** (not a wildcard, as the file header promises).
   - only-comment / whitespace lines → **DENY**.
   - approving a *different* recipe (hedgedoc) → custom-html still **DENY** (no leak).
   - `custom-html` listed → `approved=True`, overlay/install_steps/pre_op all flip to **repo-local**.
3. **No bypass:** every execution path in `runner/run_recipe_ci.py` routes through gated
   `discovery.*` (`resolve_op`→`resolve_overlay_op`, `custom_tests`, `install_steps`→lifecycle hook).
   `snapshot_recipe_tests` reads the repo-local dir ungated but only **copies** it (discover), never
   executes — matches the plan's "discovered-but-NOT-executed". `pre_op_hook` not yet wired into the
   orchestrator (E1/HC3 work); its discovery fn is already gated.

Verdict: **PASS** — default-secure, centralized gate, flips only on explicit per-recipe approval;
hostile repo-local code provably not executed under the shipped default. No finding.
**Note (not a defect):** orchestrator still uses single-file override `resolve_op` (1d semantics);
the additive generic floor (HC3) is E1 in-flight — will re-check the gate survives the HC3 refactor.
