Kjell Tore Guttormsen 19981623f5 feat(output): report-only OUTPUT gate — compose + secret egress (TDD) [skip-docs]
Module 7 of the build order: the last gate before model output is persisted.
Composes scan_lexicon + scan_entropy over the emitted text, feeds each base64
blob entropy decoded back through the lexicon (decode-and-rescan → decoded:*
findings with blob offset), and adds the LLM02 secret/credential egress layer
(cloud/provider keys, PEM headers, DB conn-strings, JWT, labelled
password/secret/api-key assignments) with placeholder/varref FP-suppression.

Report-only (never mutates; neutralize is the separate opt-in mutator). Evidence
carries only a description + match length — never the secret value. Self-safe:
single input-size cap, linear egress patterns. PEM patterns use -{5} form so the
module itself never trips a secret scanner. 26 new tests; 108 green total.

"""Tests for the report-only OUTPUT gate (build order step 7).
``output`` is the composition layer over the model's *emitted* text, scanned
before it is persisted (the RAG-poisoning / egress gate). It runs three things
and merges their findings into one ``Report``:
1. ``scan_lexicon`` over the output — injection strings the model reproduced.
2. ``scan_entropy`` over the output — encoded/high-entropy carrier blobs.
3. **decode-and-rescan** — each base64 blob ``entropy`` decoded to plaintext is
fed back through ``scan_lexicon``, so an injection *hidden inside* a blob is
caught, not merely flagged as "a blob is present".
4. **secret/credential egress** (OWASP LLM02) — AWS/GCP/GitHub/npm/OpenAI/
Anthropic keys, PEM private-key headers, DB connection strings, JWTs, and
labelled password/api-key/secret assignments, with false-positive
suppression for placeholders and variable references.
Report-only, like every detector: it never mutates the text (``neutralize`` is
the separate, opt-in mutator). The return value is a ``Report``.
Security property specific to this module: a finding's ``evidence`` must NEVER
contain the secret value it matched — the report is meant to be logged.
Secret fixtures below are assembled from fragments at call time so the contiguous
secret literal never sits in this file; the repo's gitleaks pre-commit hook would
otherwise (correctly) block the commit. Same runtime-assembly trick the seed's
secrets-patterns.md prescribes for its own PEM markers.
