Summary

  • makes the hygiene gate scan an explicit implementation-language horizon instead of workflows, documentation, machine-readable templates, packaging, and container templates
  • permits only issue-linked debt markers such as TODO(#163); untracked source debt remains blocking
  • preserves the stricter proof-language circumvention scan and declared trusted-base allowlist
  • adds executable positive and negative controls for ignored non-source material, rejected untracked source debt, accepted issue-linked debt, rejected proof circumvention, and sanctioned proof isolation

Verification

This repairs the source of the estate-audit false positives rather than adding a broad consumer allowlist.

📝 Walkthrough

Summary by CodeRabbit

  • New Features

    • Added automated code-hygiene checks for untracked debt markers and undeclared proof circumventions.
    • Added allowlist support for approved exceptions.
    • Added automated self-testing for the hygiene check action on relevant changes.
  • Bug Fixes

    • Improved the action’s scanner configuration and reporting of hygiene violations.

Walkthrough

The action now invokes an external hygiene checker. The checker supports allowlisted paths, detects untracked debt markers and proof circumvention, and includes a shell test harness run by a new GitHub Actions workflow.

Changes

Code hygiene enforcement

Layer / File(s) Summary
Checker scans and allowlist
actions/code-hygiene-check/check.sh, .cicd-hygiene-allow
The new checker parses exclusions, scans source and proof-language files, reports violations, and returns a failure status when needed.
Action integration
actions/code-hygiene-check/action.yml
The action invokes check.sh and describes untracked debt markers.
Self-test workflow and fixtures
actions/code-hygiene-check/test.sh, .github/workflows/code-hygiene-self-test.yml
The test harness validates clean, tracked, untracked, circumvention, and allowlisted cases. The workflow runs the harness on relevant changes.

Estimated code review effort: 3 (Moderate) | ~20 minutes

Merge Risk: 🔵 Low · up to 56ddf

The change narrows hygiene scanning and adds enforcement controls, but excluded documentation can still trigger proof-language failures and the self-test retains checkout credentials while running repository-controlled code. The PR is mergeable with explicit owner awareness and follow-up on these bounded correctness and security issues.

Poem

A rabbit checks each marker’s trail

Tracked notes pass; stray notes fail
Proof shortcuts meet a careful gate
Allowlists set the accepted state
The workflow runs, neat and bright

Pull Request Overview

This PR refactors the code hygiene gate to focus on implementation source files and introduces a mechanism to permit debt markers (TODO, FIXME, etc.) when linked to issue IDs. While the structural changes and the addition of a self-test suite are positive, there is a high-severity logic issue in the scanning regex that will lead to false positives if directory or file names contain debt marker keywords.

Additionally, the current implementation of the hygiene check misses several common application source extensions, such as .js, .ts, and .sql. This creates a gap in the 'real source debt' coverage intended by this PR. Addressing the regex anchoring and expanding the language coverage is recommended before merging.

Test suggestions

  • Untracked debt markers in application source files (e.g., .rs) trigger a failure
  • Tracked debt markers with issue IDs (e.g., TODO(#123)) in source files are accepted
  • Debt markers in documentation, workflows, or machine-readable templates are ignored
  • Undeclared proof circumventions in proof-specific languages trigger a failure
  • Files listed in the allowlist are exempted from both debt and proof scans

non-source directory exclusions used by source_paths, so files such as
docs/example.idr are not scanned; preferably reuse shared exclusion definitions
rather than duplicating them.
