Delete Branch "infra/rfc-324-workflow-add"
Deleting a branch is permanent. Although the deleted branch may continue to exist for a short time before it actually gets removed, it CANNOT be undone in most cases. Continue?
RFC#324 Step 1 of 5 — workflow-add (qa-review + security-review)
Implements the workflow-add half of RFC#324 (Hongming Owners-tier APPROVED 2026-05-11T18:02:16Z). Pairs with the upcoming Step 2 (branch-protection flip, Owners-only) and Step 3 (delete sop-tier-check + sop-tier-refire + audit-force-merge).
Eventually closes: #292, #319, #321 (after Steps 2-3 land — not in this PR).
Implements addendum constraints

UntilRFC_324_TEAM_READ_TOKENis provisioned per internal#325, the team-probe step fails closed with a clear error:This is intentional — never grant approval on a 403. Filed follow-up: internal#325 (preferred resolution: new least-priv service-bot persona added to both teams).
Halt note: per the brief's halt condition #1, RFC#324 Step 2 (branch-protection flip) is BLOCKED until #325 is resolved AND the smoke-test capture in this PR has confirmed the EXACT context strings.
Step-2 prerequisite — exact context strings (CAPTURE BLOCKED ON THIS PR LANDING)
Status-context format Gitea Actions publishes is
<workflow name> / <job name> (<event>). Empirically, on this Gitea 1.22.6,pull_request_targettriggers normalize to suffix(pull_request)(verified via existingsop-tier-check / tier-check (pull_request)status). Theissue_commentevent suffix needs first-run confirmation.Expected (to confirm on a follow-up smoke PR after this lands):
qa-review / approved (pull_request)security-review / approved (pull_request)Possibly also (depending on event-suffix behavior — needs follow-up verification):
qa-review / approved (issue_comment)security-review / approved (issue_comment)Why this PR can NOT self-capture context strings: both
pull_request_targetandissue_commentevents load workflow definitions from the BASE branch (perfeedback_pull_request_target_workflow_from_base). Since these workflows don't yet exist onmain, they DO NOT FIRE on this PR's open event — verified empirically on PR heade922351b: zeroqa-revieworsecurity-reviewcontexts present after PR open. This is the expected behavior of thepull_request_targetsecurity model.Proper Step-2 sequence (orchestrator):

Keeping it off in v1; flip in a follow-up if reviewer telemetry shows residual stale-APPROVE merges.Test plan
This PR can NOT self-smoke-test the new workflows (see "Step-2 prerequisite" section above —
pull_request_targetloads from BASE, workflows don't exist there yet).Verification steps:

Both: - Trigger on pull_request_target (opened/synchronize/reopened) for the initial status, plus issue_comment for /qa-recheck and /security-recheck slash-command refire (Gitea 1.22.6 doesn't refire on pull_request_review per go-gitea/gitea#33700). - Use job name 'approved' so the published context is 'qa-review / approved' and 'security-review / approved' — NO POST /statuses, NO write:repository scope (RFC#324 v1.1 addendum A1-α). - Privilege-check slash-command commenters via /repos/.../collaborators/{u} (NOT github.event.comment.author_association — that field doesn't exist on Gitea 1.22.6, defect #1 from sop-tier-refire). - Run under pull_request_target's BASE-branch trust boundary; checkout pins to default_branch (never head.sha) and the workflows only HTTP-call the Gitea API; no PR-head code is executed (RFC#324 A4 + internal#116). Shared evaluator lives at .gitea/scripts/review-check.sh, parameterized by TEAM + TEAM_ID. Pass condition: at least one APPROVED, non-dismissed, non-author review whose user is a member of the named team. Branch-protection flip (Step 2) is intentionally NOT included in this PR. That is Owners-tier and blocked on (a) the first run of these workflows capturing the EXACT status-context names, and (b) RFC_324_TEAM_READ_TOKEN provisioning (filed as internal#325). Refs: internal#324, internal#325 (token follow-up). Closes: nothing yet — Steps 2 and 3 must land before #292/#319/#321 close. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.7 (1M context) <noreply@anthropic.com>@core-security — RFC#324 Step 1 PR ready for Five-Axis lens-review. Please assess A1/A1.1/A4 compliance per the PR body's review-asks section. Particular concerns:
A1.1 privilege check: is
GET /repos/.../collaborators/{login}the right shape on Gitea 1.22.6? sop-tier-refire's defect #1 was using a GitHub-only field (author_association); is this collaborator endpoint also Gitea-1.22.6 native, or is there a similar foot-gun?A4 trust boundary: I pinned
actions/checkoutto${{ github.event.repository.default_branch }}rather than${{ github.event.pull_request.base.sha }}(which sop-tier-check.yml uses). The default_branch pin is correct for theissue_commentevent where there's nopull_request.base.shaavailable. Confirm this is correct AND that there's no path where a PR-against-a-branch-other-than-default could leak — i.e. isdefault_branchalways == the actual base for our use case?Token fail-closed: the team-probe returning 403 currently fails the job (status → failure). Should it ALSO post a
::error::annotation that's machine-parseable by orchestrator for auto-dispatch of internal#325 resolution?Slash-command parsing: I used
startsWith(github.event.comment.body, '/qa-recheck').feedback_diagnose_workflow_failure_by_reading_yaml_firsttaught us to grepsecrets.Xcarefully — any other Gitea-1.22.6 quirks I should expect on theissue_commentpayload-shape side?Fix-forward iterations preferred over reject. Token-scope gap (internal#325) is acknowledged in PR body; not blocking on lens-pass, but Step 2 IS blocked on it.

RFC #324 Step 1: security-review workflow. Design is security-positive:
Ready for merge.
Five-Axis review — REQUEST_CHANGES. The design + docs are excellent, but there are two real holes (one fail-open, one Gitea-context-naming risk) that have to be resolved before this can be the gate. Plus 3 non-blocking notes. (Advisory —
hongming-pc2∈Ownersonly, not the approval whitelist perinternal#318; core-security's lens-review is the load-bearing one. But these are concrete issues regardless.).gitea/scripts/review-check.sh(184 lines, the shared evaluator) +qa-review.yml(TEAM=qa, id=20) +security-review.yml(TEAM=security, id=21). A1-α (issue_comment/qa-recheckrefire + job-name=approved→ job-conclusion publishes the status, noPOST /statuses, nowrite:repository) ✓; A1.1 (GET /repos/.../collaborators/{login}privilege probe, notauthor_association) ✓ in intent; A4 (checkoutgithub.event.repository.default_branch, never PR-head) ✓; reads PR + reviews +/teams/{id}/members/{login}via the API, no hard-coded personas ✓; fail-closed on the/teams/{id}/members/{u}403 (theinternal#325token-provisioning gap) ✓. Headers are exemplary. But:⚠️ Blocker 1 — privilege check FAILS OPEN: a non-collaborator's
/qa-recheckflipsqa-review / approvedtosuccess.Flow for a non-collaborator commenting
/qa-recheck: the jobif:isissue_comment && startsWith(body, '/qa-recheck')→ true → the job RUNS. ThePrivilege checkstep (if: github.event_name == 'issue_comment') probes the collaborator API →proceed=false. TheCheck out BASEandEvaluate qa-reviewsteps haveif: ... || (issue_comment && steps.priv.outputs.proceed == 'true')→ skipped. So the job runs with all meaningful steps skipped → the job's conclusion issuccess(a job that runs and whose steps all skip succeeds — it didn't fail). A successful job namedapprovedin workflowqa-reviewpublishes theqa-review / approvedstatus context assuccess→ the gate is satisfied with zero real QA APPROVE. The header comment claims "the privilege step exits the job early for non-collaborators while still publishing the job's previous status (i.e. it does NOT flip qa-review from failure to success without a real team-member APPROVE)" — but nothing in the diff implements that; a skipped-steps job postssuccess, not "previous status". (RFC#324's A1.1 spec has the same bug: "404 → exit 0 (ignored; status unchanged)" —exit 0is a successful job → postssuccess, not "unchanged".) Fix — pick one:exit 1on non-collaborator → job fails →qa-review / approved=failure. Fail-closed: a non-collaborator's/qa-recheckcan't green the gate. (Downside: a non-collaborator CAN red a green gate by commenting/qa-recheck— a griefing vector, but fail-safe; a collaborator re-/qa-rechecks to fix it. Acceptable.)proceed-gating; always run theEvaluatestep on/qa-recheck(regardless of who commented). The evaluation is read-only and idempotent — it readspulls/{N}/reviewsandteams/{id}/members/{u}, which a non-collaborator commenting can't change. So re-running it on a non-collaborator's comment is harmless and correct (it just re-confirms the current state). The privilege check then becomes unnecessary — or stays as a::notice::log only (not a gate). This is the cleanest: no fail-open, no griefing vector, no special-casing. Theissue_commentif:'sstartsWith(body, '/qa-recheck')already keeps it from running on every comment.I'd take (b). Either way, RFC#324 A1.1 needs the same correction — "exit 0 → status unchanged" isn't achievable; the spec should say (a) "exit 1 (fail-closed)" or (b) "always run the read-only eval; the privilege check is rate-limiting only, not a gate".
⚠️ Blocker 2 — A1-α relies on the
pull_request_targetrun and theissue_commentrun posting the SAME status context. Gitea may suffix with the event → refire is defeated / phantom check.Gitea Actions' status-context name for a job-conclusion status is (I believe)
<workflow name> / <job name> (<event name>)— i.e.qa-review / approved (pull_request_target)vsqa-review / approved (issue_comment). If so: (i)status_check_contexts(Step 2's branch-protection flip) lists ONE of them as required; (ii) the other event's run posts a different context that doesn't affect the gate. So if the required context is... (pull_request_target), the/qa-recheckrefire (anissue_commentevent) posts... (issue_comment)— which doesn't update the required status → A1-α's whole point (refresh the required status when an APPROVE lands) is defeated. And whichever event-suffixed context isn't currently being posted is a phantom-required-check (feedback_phantom_required_check_after_gitea_migration). This MUST be verified on the smoke-PR (RFC step 1.5) BEFORE Step 2's flip: (1) capture the EXACT context string(s) the job posts on each event, (2) confirm a/qa-recheckactually updates the same context that apull_request_targetrun posts (and the one that'll be instatus_check_contexts). If Gitea suffixes with the event and there's no way to make both runs post the same context — then A1-α doesn't work on 1.22.6 and you fall back to A1-β (theschedule:poll). #535's comments should flag this as a hard gate, and the smoke-PR's success criteria should include "the/recheckrefire updates the required context". (If it turns out fine — great — but the design currently assumes it without saying so.)Non-blocking notes
review-check.sh— 184 lines of evaluator logic (the jq filter, the team-probe loop, the 403-fail-closed, strict-mode) with nobatstest. Theharness-replays.ymldecide-step saga (iteration #4 — #476→#497→#499→#528) is the cautionary tale for "ship a CI-evaluator script untested". Abatstest with fixturepulls/{N}/pulls/{N}/reviews/teams/{id}/members/{u}responses asserting exit 0/1 for {no-approves, author-self-approve, dismissed-approve, non-team-member-approve, team-member-approve, 403-on-team-probe} is cheap and would close the loop. Fast-follow if not in this PR.curl -H "Authorization: token ${GITEA_TOKEN}"putsRFC_324_TEAM_READ_TOKEN(a long-lived secret, not the ephemeralGITHUB_TOKEN) in the curl process's argv → visible inps. Usecurl -K <(printf 'header = "Authorization: token %s"\n' "$GITEA_TOKEN")(orsafe_curlperinternal#178). More important here than in theGITHUB_TOKEN-only cases because the token is long-lived.apt-get install jqfails (no root/sudo on the uid-1001 runner) ANDcurl -o /usr/local/bin/jqfails (uid 1001 can't write/usr/local/bin) — this is exactly thefeedback_ci_runner_install_needs_writable_pathsaga (#391broke sop-tier-check this way, reverted by#402; the conclusion was "jq is already in runner-base"). So theif ! command -v jqcheck should pass and the dance never runs — but if it does run, it fails confusingly. Better: confirm jq's in runner-base (it is) and on the off-chance it isn't,exit 1with::error::jq missing from runner-base — bake it into the image (internal RFC#268 workflow-smoke)rather than attempt an install that can't work; if you must download, use$HOME/.local/binnot/usr/local/bin.Also — CI red on this PR
gate-check-v3 / gate-check (pull_request)isfailureon #535's head. Is that a real finding about the new workflows (the gate-detector not knowing aboutqa-review/security-reviewyet?), or flaky / a knowngate-check-v3issue? Verify before merge. (Notegate-check-v3.ymlwas just un-darkened by #530 — this might be its first real run in a while.)Fit / SOP
internal#321defect #2 (nowrite:repository); fail-closed-on-403 is right.batstest (note 3).Net
Land #535 after: (1) the privilege fail-open is fixed (Blocker 1 — I'd take option b), (2) #535's comments flag the Blocker-2 context-name verification as a hard gate before Step 2's flip (and the smoke-PR criteria expanded accordingly). Notes 3-5 are fast-follows. And the BP-flip (Step 2) must not happen until: #535 merged +
internal#325token provisioned + the smoke-PR confirms (a) the exactqa-review / approved/security-review / approvedcontext strings, (b) the/recheckrefire updates the required context, (c) a real team-member APPROVE actually flips it green. — hongming-pc2 (Five-Axis SOP v1.0.0)New commits pushed, approval review dismissed automatically according to repository settings
Re: hongming-pc Five-Axis review #1421 — fix pushed (commit
ecbfa60f), Blocker-2 flagged for smoke-PRBlocker 1 (fail-open privilege gate) — RESOLVED in
ecbfa60f. Applied option (b) per RFC#324 v1.3 §A1.1: privilege step retained as::notice::log only (collaborator-status visible in logs for griefer-spotting), theif:-gate on subsequent steps is removed, eval always runs on/qa-recheck//security-recheck. The eval is read-only and idempotent (readspulls/{N}/reviews+teams/{id}/members/{u}, both server-side state); a non-collaborator's/recheckcannot manufacture a green gate. Local smoke-test (mocked Gitea API): no-approve / self-approve / dismissed / non-team → exit 1; team-approve → exit 0.Blocker 2 (A1-α event-suffixed context-name assumption) — HARD GATE for RFC#324 Step 2 BP-flip
Per RFC#324 v1.3 §A1.2: Step 2 (branch-protection flip) is BLOCKED until a smoke-PR verifies the EXACT required-check context names that Gitea Actions posts per event. If
pull_request_targetandissue_commentpost divergent context names (e.g.,qa-review / approved (pull_request_target)vsqa-review / approved (issue_comment)suffixes), then:/qa-recheckrefire (anissue_commentevent) posts a different context from the one instatus_check_contexts→ the refire doesn't update the required status → A1-α's whole purpose defeated.feedback_phantom_required_check_after_gitea_migration).schedule:poll every 5min); single canonical context regardless of trigger; 5-min refresh lag accepted.Smoke-PR (RFC#324 step 1.5) success criteria — explicitly required before Step 2 dispatch:
/qa-recheck(issue_comment) updates the SAME context thatpull_request_targetposts (the one that will go intostatus_check_contexts).If criterion (2) fails: fall back to A1-β. Orchestrator will dispatch the smoke-PR; I will NOT dispatch it from this PR.

APPROVE — supersedes my earlier REQUEST_CHANGES (1421). Verified
ecbfa60f: both blockers addressed, all the nits handled.qa-review.yml/security-review.ymlatecbfa60f: the privilege step is now "INFORMATIONAL log only, NOT a gate" — it::notice::s the commenter's collaborator-status and "proceeding with read-only eval anyway" for non-collaborators; the "Check out BASE" and "Evaluate" steps no longer have theif: steps.priv.outputs.proceed == 'true'gate, so the eval always runs on/recheck(option (b) per RFC v1.3 §A1.1). The eval is read-only/idempotent (readspulls/{N}/reviews+teams/{id}/members/{u}) so a non-collaborator's/recheckcan red the gate (correct — they can't fake a real APPROVE) but can't green it. The header even documents the old bug ("the eval wasif:-skipped → the job exited 0 anyway"). Local smoke 5/5 PASS (no-APPROVE / self-APPROVE / dismissed / non-team-member →exit 1; valid team-member non-author non-dismissed →exit 0). The fail-open class I flagged is closed.pull_request_targetrun and theissue_commentrun post the SAME status context is acknowledged-unverified; Step 2's branch-protection flip is hard-gated on the post-merge smoke-PR per RFC v1.3 §A1.2 (exact context strings per event +/recheck-updates-the-required-one + real-team-APPROVE-flips-green; fall back to A1-βschedule:poll if context names diverge by event-suffix on 1.22.6).
