| 1 | +# Post-v0.3.0 Internal Readiness Audit |
| 2 | + |
| 3 | +Status: internal readiness audit record. |
| 4 | +Scope: current post-v0.3.0 `main` state before external audit and any future release. |
| 5 | +Branch: `audit/internal-post-v030-current-main-readiness`. |
| 6 | +Baseline main SHA: `4e20ed272c4b281b6b82c6d7fcad46ac342adac5`. |
| 7 | +Date: 2026-06-20. |
| 8 | + |
| 9 | +This document records an internal audit pass after the README current-main truth and repository-layout synchronization phases. |
| 10 | + |
| 11 | +It does not publish a release, create a tag, publish to PyPI, change branch protection, change CI requirements, change runtime behavior, or approve a stable support/API guarantee. |
| 12 | + |
| 13 | +## Verdict |
| 14 | + |
| 15 | +Current `main` is internally coherent enough to move to external audit, but it is not release-ready by itself. |
| 16 | + |
| 17 | +No release or PyPI publication is authorized from this record alone. |
| 18 | + |
| 19 | +Before any future release, the repository still needs: |
| 20 | + |
| 21 | +- external audit; |
| 22 | +- correction of any external-audit findings by separate Always-Green phases; |
| 23 | +- final release-boundary review; |
| 24 | +- package build and clean install verification; |
| 25 | +- GitHub Release and PyPI publication through the documented release workflow; |
| 26 | +- post-release verification from a clean PyPI install. |
| 27 | + |
| 28 | +## Verified evidence |
| 29 | + |
| 30 | +The internal audit pass verified the following local evidence: |
| 31 | + |
| 32 | +- `main` was clean and synchronized with `origin/main` before the audit branch was created; |
| 33 | +- no open pull requests were present at audit start; |
| 34 | +- README public truth was reviewed from the live repository; |
| 35 | +- documentation inventory was reviewed; |
| 36 | +- CLI command help was reviewed for the implemented command surface; |
| 37 | +- GitHub Actions workflows were reviewed from tracked files; |
| 38 | +- local maintenance scripts were reviewed from tracked files; |
| 39 | +- `./scripts/check.sh` passed; |
| 40 | +- `./scripts/post-release-audit.sh` passed; |
| 41 | +- the test suite passed with 152 tests; |
| 42 | +- Ruff passed; |
| 43 | +- text hygiene checks passed; |
| 44 | +- Git whitespace checks passed. |
| 45 | + |
| 46 | +## Current command boundary |
| 47 | + |
| 48 | +Current `main` documents and implements the following command surface: |
| 49 | + |
| 50 | +- `check`; |
| 51 | +- `init --dry-run`; |
| 52 | +- `init --write`; |
| 53 | +- `doctor`; |
| 54 | +- `budget`; |
| 55 | +- `explain`; |
| 56 | +- `dedupe`; |
| 57 | +- `conflicts`. |
| 58 | + |
| 59 | +The published `v0.3.0` package includes `doctor`, `budget`, and `explain`. |
| 60 | + |
| 61 | +`dedupe` and `conflicts` are current-main post-v0.3.0 additions and must not be represented as published PyPI package behavior until a later release is cut, published, and verified. |
| 62 | + |
| 63 | +## Release boundary |
| 64 | + |
| 65 | +The README now correctly distinguishes: |
| 66 | + |
| 67 | +- current published GitHub Release and PyPI package: `v0.3.0`; |
| 68 | +- previous published baseline: `v0.2.3`; |
| 69 | +- current `main` additions after `v0.3.0`; |
| 70 | +- development-from-source checks versus published-package behavior; |
| 71 | +- future release requirements. |
| 72 | + |
| 73 | +This boundary must remain intact until the next release is deliberately prepared. |
| 74 | + |
| 75 | +## Findings |
| 76 | + |
| 77 | +### AIRK-AUDIT-001 — Public README truth is coherent |
| 78 | + |
| 79 | +Severity: pass. |
| 80 | +Status: no action required. |
| 81 | + |
| 82 | +The README now records the current published release boundary and current-main additions without claiming that unreleased commands are already published on PyPI. |
| 83 | + |
| 84 | +### AIRK-AUDIT-002 — Repository layout is sufficiently current |
| 85 | + |
| 86 | +Severity: pass. |
| 87 | +Status: no action required. |
| 88 | + |
| 89 | +The README repository layout now includes current workflows, Dependabot configuration, core evidence documents, post-release audit script, package modules, and test files, while excluding ignored/cache/runtime paths such as `.git/`, `.venv/`, `.ruff_cache`, and `__pycache__`. |
| 90 | + |
| 91 | +### AIRK-AUDIT-003 — Local gates are green |
| 92 | + |
| 93 | +Severity: pass. |
| 94 | +Status: no action required. |
| 95 | + |
| 96 | +The local check suite and post-release audit passed from the audit branch without tracked-file changes at audit start. |
| 97 | + |
| 98 | +### AIRK-AUDIT-004 — Release is still blocked pending external audit |
| 99 | + |
| 100 | +Severity: release-blocking process item. |
| 101 | +Status: open. |
| 102 | + |
| 103 | +The repository is not approved for a new release or PyPI publication from internal audit alone. |
| 104 | + |
| 105 | +Required next evidence: |
| 106 | + |
| 107 | +- external audit; |
| 108 | +- triage of findings; |
| 109 | +- correction phases if needed; |
| 110 | +- final release readiness record; |
| 111 | +- packaging verification; |
| 112 | +- GitHub Release and PyPI workflow verification; |
| 113 | +- clean install smoke from PyPI. |
| 114 | + |
| 115 | +### AIRK-AUDIT-005 — Threat model should explicitly mention post-v0.3.0 commands |
| 116 | + |
| 117 | +Severity: minor documentation alignment. |
| 118 | +Status: follow-up recommended before next release. |
| 119 | + |
| 120 | +`docs/THREAT-MODEL.md` describes the current post-v0.3.0 main state and the published v0.3.0 command surface, but should explicitly mention `dedupe` and `conflicts` as read-only current-main post-v0.3.0 commands before a release that includes them. |
| 121 | + |
| 122 | +This is not a runtime blocker, but it is a useful documentation hardening item before external audit or release closeout. |
| 123 | + |
| 124 | +Recommended follow-up branch: |
| 125 | + |
| 126 | +- `docs/sync-threat-model-current-main-commands` |
| 127 | + |
| 128 | +## Non-findings |
| 129 | + |
| 130 | +This audit did not find evidence that current `main` introduces: |
| 131 | + |
| 132 | +- runtime network access; |
| 133 | +- runtime LLM dependency; |
| 134 | +- repository command execution; |
| 135 | +- dependency vulnerability scanning as a product feature; |
| 136 | +- unsupported security-product claims; |
| 137 | +- new write behavior beyond explicit `init --write`. |
| 138 | + |
| 139 | +## Limits of this internal audit |
| 140 | + |
| 141 | +This record is not: |
| 142 | + |
| 143 | +- an external audit; |
| 144 | +- a line-by-line formal security review; |
| 145 | +- proof that the project is secure; |
| 146 | +- proof that PyPI publication will succeed; |
| 147 | +- proof that GitHub branch protection or repository settings are perfect; |
| 148 | +- a stable API or support guarantee; |
| 149 | +- approval to cut a release. |
| 150 | + |
| 151 | +## Recommended next phases |
| 152 | + |
| 153 | +Recommended order: |
| 154 | + |
| 155 | +1. `docs/sync-threat-model-current-main-commands` |
| 156 | +2. external audit prompt/report for current `main` |
| 157 | +3. correction phases for external audit findings |
| 158 | +4. final release readiness record |
| 159 | +5. packaging and clean install verification |
| 160 | +6. GitHub Release and PyPI publication only if all prior evidence is green |
| 161 | + |
| 162 | +## Closeout rule |
| 163 | + |
| 164 | +This audit phase is complete only after this record is merged by PR, `main` is clean and synchronized, CI is green for the merge SHA, and the audit branch is deleted locally and remotely. |
