fix(security): use security@ as the reporting contact, not hello@

hello@ works, but two different addresses across sibling org repos force a reporter finding a vulnerability to guess which one is the security channel. security@fromaitochitta.com is the designated one.

 ## [0.9.0] — 2026-08-13
 **A normative rule stated its own premise and then applied itself beyond it.**
 `spec/conformance-corpus.md` §7 justified the fixture-is-ground-truth ordering with *"**Two
 implementations** that return different verdicts…"* and then stated the rule with no scope at
 all. For `signatures/active-content.json` there is no second implementation — the seed runtime
 authored both the payloads and the table — and that runtime has stated that the classification
 behind it is calibration it does not freeze. §7 as written made a reserved change on their side
 into a bug on their side.
 **Breaking in category, minor in number.** This changes disposition semantics, which the
 versioning note at the top of this file counts as contract. The repository is in 0.x, where a
 breaking change is a minor bump by the rules — the same reading `[0.3.0]` recorded: *read the
 entry, not the version number*.
 ### Changed
 - **`spec/conformance-corpus.md` — new §7.1, *Where the second paragraph does not hold*.** The
  scope is keyed on a **structural property**, never on a table name: a case whose scope is a
  table only one runtime implements, whose payload that runtime authored. A rule naming
  `active-content` would rot the day a second runtime implements it. §7's own second paragraph
  already carried the premise; §7.1 makes it explicit and states the disposition for the case
  the premise excludes — the fixture is not rewritten on the divergence alone, the divergence is
  recorded against the version pinned, and re-pinning is a separate release. That is the
  disposition §5 already applies to a stale `observed_out_of_scope` entry, extended to the one
  place where it can reach a verdict.
  **It creates no fourth verdict, and that constraint shaped the wording.**
  `schema/conformance-declaration.schema.json` closes `result` with `additionalProperties: false`
  over four counts plus two arithmetic invariants; a fifth verdict would have broken every
  consumer's parser, which is a worse break than the one intended. A case whose expected findings
  are not produced still **fails** and is still named in `failed_cases`. What §7.1 changes is what
  the failure licenses concluding, not what is reported.
  Two limits stated in the section rather than left to be inferred: it does **not** reach a
  third-party implementer of the same table — against them the fixture is the contract, exactly
  as §7 says, and that is the only thing these cases can prove while one runtime is all there is
  — and it is **not** a licence for a runtime to self-declare, since the exemption is carried by
  the corpus's provenance record for the scope and not asserted per case by whoever failed.
  Superseded text is named rather than edited away, following §6's own pattern: *"Through corpus
  version 0.8.1 this section stated the rule above with no scope at all."*
  **The competing reading was tested and disposed of**, because it is the one that would have
  avoided this release: that §7's existing hatch (*"unless the fixture itself is proven wrong"*)
  already covered it. It does not. The hatch's consequence is that **the fixture changes**, and
  the manifest field asserts the opposite — pinned, not rewritten, re-pinning a separate
  decision. And a runtime recalibrating does not prove the earlier classification wrong: the
  fixture measured `de09711` / `0.4.0` correctly, and a later release does not reach back and
  falsify an earlier measurement. The case fits neither of §7's two dispositions, which is the
  defect.
 - **`conformance/manifest.json` `0.6.1` → `0.6.2` —
  `active_content_provenance.pins_a_version_not_a_frozen_classification` no longer records an
  open question.** The retirement is **partial and it is quoted, not dropped**, per the house
  style this field established one release ago (*"a correction that does not say what it corrects
  cannot be audited"*). What falls is only the open-question status; the clause *"section 7 …
  is NOT amended by this block"* **stays true and is kept**, because §7 was amended by its own
  release and not by a data file. Value change only — read back from disk against `HEAD` with a
  flattened key diff: `added: 0, removed: 0, changed: 2` (the field and `version`), and the new
  string printed and read rather than inferred from the count, since a value edit reports
  `changed: 1` whatever it wrote.
  Six prose dashes in the new text were written `--` and promoted to `—` before commit: `--` is
  the variant-suffix separator token of §6's case-id grammar, and every other occurrence of it in
  this file is that token, a real case id, or a CLI flag.
 ### Neighbours — measured, and the ones left alone are named
 A sweep for the retired premise was run over the whole repository, widened past *"ground truth"*
 to the second paragraph's own wording (*"one of them has a bug"*, *"two implementations"*), since
 a restatement in that phrasing would have survived the first search.
 - **`CONVENTIONS.md` — changed.** Carried the rule unscoped and called the proven-wrong hatch
  *"the one way that reverses"*. There are now two, and both are listed.
 - **`CLAUDE.md` — changed.** The Norwegian restatement that governs sessions in this repository
  carried the same unscoped rule; left alone, the next session here would have acted on it.
 - **`SECURITY.md` §2 — minimal cross-reference only.** Its claim is about a fixture that expects
  **too little**, and §7.1 narrows *who the rule reaches*, not that direction. The conclusion
  survives intact, so it was not rewritten.
 - **`SECURITY.md` "Why a confirmed defect is usually not fixed here first" — untouched.** Its
  *"two implementations answering differently"* is about extracted **data** diverging from its
  source, not about fixtures.
 - **`README.md` — untouched.** Its conformance row says *"Ground truth"* as a descriptor and does
  not restate the disagreement rule, and it already names the asymmetry it would otherwise hide:
  the seven active-content cases are *"measured against the one runtime that implements that
  table"*. Nothing there became false.
 - **`docs/extraction-plan.md` — untouched, and it is supporting evidence rather than a stale
  neighbour.** It already records that the calibration file *"inverts this repository's central
  rule"* — so this is the second place the unscoped rule was known not to hold, and the first was
  documented before this release.
 ### Not in this release
 Whether the seven active-content cases still pass at the seed runtime's `v1.1.0` is **unmeasured**,
 and §7.1 is silent on it. No case was minted, no data file touched, no id string proposed.
 ## [0.8.1] — 2026-08-13
 **The field 0.8.0 added to make the exposure precise stated it with a hand-derived count, and the
 count was wrong.** Caught in the same session, before any consumer read it, and corrected inside
 the field rather than by rewriting it. No measurement changed and no verdict moved.
 ### Fixed
 - **`conformance/manifest.json` 0.6.0 → 0.6.1 —
  `active_content_provenance.pins_a_version_not_a_frozen_classification` now enumerates instead of
  totalling.** As published it read *"three of the four dimensions they name as calibration cannot
  move one of these cases at all. The fourth can: which `active:` ids a payload yields IS the
  classification"*. Two defects in one sentence. First, the total was derived by hand over a
  taxonomy the field had itself recategorized: the seed runtime's four calibration dimensions are
  severities, thresholds, **lexicon entries** and dispositions, and lexicon entries are *not* absent
  from these fixtures — `active__data-uri` carries `data-uri:executable` and `active__raw-html`
  carries `hybrid-xss:script-tag` in `observed_out_of_scope`, both verified as members of
  `lexicon/injection-lexicon.json` and non-members of `signatures/active-content.json`. Second,
  *"the fourth"* silently substituted the classification for lexicon entries as the fourth item of
  their sentence, which it is not — the classification is what they addressed separately.
 - The replacement names three things and totals none of them: severities/thresholds/dispositions
  are absent and move no verdict; lexicon entries move no verdict either — spec section 5 forbids
  failing a runtime over `observed_out_of_scope` — but a lexicon calibration change **ages** those
  two entries as evidence, which is the exposure
  `active_content_measurement_0_7_0.movement_sweep.residue_is_the_field_no_test_protects` already
  names as a class, and this corpus pins a stale residue entry rather than rewriting it; and the
  active-content classification is the one thing that can move a verdict. The retired sentence is
  **quoted** in the field's `AMENDED IN 0.6.1` clause, not merely dropped, for the same reason
  `scope_planned.$comment` quotes what it retired: a correction that does not say what it corrects
  cannot be audited.
 ## [0.8.0] — 2026-08-13
 **The seven active-content fixtures pin a VERSION of the seed runtime, and nothing said so.**
 That runtime tagged `v1.0.0` on 2026-08-13 and stated that the freeze covers its exported Python
 surface only, excluding detection behaviour: severities, thresholds, lexicon entries and
 dispositions are calibration there and move in minor and patch releases. The manifest already
 pinned commit and version per measurement block, but nowhere recorded that the thing pinned is a
 version rather than a frozen classification. No case is minted, no data file is touched, no id is
 proposed.
 ### Added
 - **`conformance/manifest.json` 0.5.2 → 0.6.0 —
  `active_content_provenance.pins_a_version_not_a_frozen_classification`.** One field, scoping the
  neighbouring `asymmetry` rather than replacing it, and deliberately narrower than the runtime's
  own statement. The exposure is bounded by what the fixtures assert, which was read from all seven
  rather than assumed: every finding carries `pattern_id` and nothing else — no severity, no
  threshold, no disposition — so three of the four dimensions that runtime names as calibration
  cannot move one of these cases at all. The fourth can, because which `active:` ids a payload
  yields *is* the classification. The field names both pins (six at 0.4.0 / `de09711`, the seventh
  at 0.7.0 / `be9759b`) rather than one, since a single version would flatten two measurements into
  one header — the defect `superseded_for_one_case` exists to prevent. Their v1.0.0 statement is
  **attributed** to their coord message of 2026-08-13T20:40:31Z, not restated as a fact measured
  from this side.
 - The field also names the disposition of a future divergence, so it is not left to be inferred: a
  later 1.x that classifies one of these payloads differently is not a breach by them and does not
  make the fixture wrong. The fixture stays ground truth at its pinned version, the divergence is
  measured and recorded, and re-pinning is a separate decision — the same disposition this corpus
  already applies to a stale `observed_out_of_scope` entry.
 ### Fixed
 - **`docs/secret-egress-divergence.md:75-76` carried the same misquote `conformance/manifest.json`
  had corrected in 0.7.3**, named there as a deliberate omission and closed here. The field's value
  ends ``ascending `order` `` — the backticks are the field's own. The fix is *not* the one the
  omission note implied: those two lines are a single code span delimited by **single** backticks
  across a line break, so inserting the field's backticks inside it would have terminated the span
  at the first one and rendered the quote broken. The outer delimiter is promoted to double
  backticks instead, which is what lets the inner singles survive. The manifest's correction ported
  as a literal string because JSON has no backtick semantics; markdown does. Verified by extracting
  the span from the file on disk, unfolding the line break, and comparing to the decoded value in
  `signatures/secret-egress.json` — equal — and by confirming no backtick run of length ≥ 2 sits
  inside the span.
 ### Not done, and named rather than left silent
 - **`spec/conformance-corpus.md` section 7 is untouched.** It states the disagreement rule without
  scope: *"The fixture is ground truth. A runtime that disagrees is wrong."* Read against the
  active-content scope, whose only implementing runtime has now said in writing that its
  classification may legitimately move, that rule would call a calibration change there a bug. The
  manifest field records the interaction and explicitly does not amend the spec. Whether the
  normative rule needs a scope is a decision for its own release.
 ## [0.7.3] — 2026-08-13
 **The README still argued the premise 0.7.2 retired, and the two files sat on a public remote
 disagreeing.** `README.md` opened the egress gap with "It is not an id question at all"; the
 blocker it sends the reader to for authority now opens reason (1) with "NO ID SPACE ON THE
 COMMONS SIDE. This is the hard blocker." Before 0.7.2 the README was merely out of date. After
 it, our own commit had made it contradictory — the same defect class 0.7.1 existed to close. No
 data moves, no case is minted, no id is proposed.
 ### Fixed
 - **The README now carries the three measured reasons instead of the retired one.** (1) No id
  space on the commons side — the hard blocker, and the only one an answer can resolve; the
  answer belongs to the runtimes that own the seeds. (2) Match semantics disagree, and an id
  space would not close it. (3) Membership diverges in both directions and the divergence is
  inherited: the two sides hold 19 entries and 25, and they are ports of two *different* source
  tables in one source repository. The counts survived the falsification; only the causal claim
  fell, so `different tables` is kept and "cut at different granularities" is gone. The
  paragraph deliberately does **not** restate the outgoing question's status: that is true on
  the day it is written, nothing tests README prose, and `conformance/manifest.json` already
  carries the date. The standing `entry_points_by_scope` requirement is likewise left out rather
  than printed as a fourth reason.
 - **`conformance/manifest.json` 0.5.1 → 0.5.2: the blocker misquoted the contract it cites.** It
  rendered the field as `match_semantics: "… evaluated in ascending order"`; the value in
  `signatures/secret-egress.json` ends ``ascending `order` `` — the backticks are the field's
  own. A blocker that misquotes the semantics it is blocking on invites a consumer to implement
  the wrong one. The data file is
  unchanged and was never wrong — only the quotation of it was, which `scope_planned.$comment`
  now records. Verified by reading the edited file back from disk and matching the decoded
  string against the data file that owns it; `json.tool` passes on wrong escaping.
 Known and deliberately left: `docs/secret-egress-divergence.md` renders the same value without
 its backticks. That document is `Status: informative` and was outside this release's scope.
 ## [0.7.2] — 2026-08-13
 **`scope_planned.blockers` named the premise that `docs/secret-egress-divergence.md`
 falsified.** The blocker read "19 entries … 25 at different cut points" — one table cut at two
 granularities, waiting on a reconciliation of two ports. Measured 2026-08-13: they are ports of
 **two different source tables** in the same source repository, so no reconciliation of the ports
 was ever going to close it. No data moves in this release, and no case is minted — only the
 recorded reason a case cannot be.
 ### Fixed
 - **The egress blocker now carries the three measured reasons, kept independent.** (1) Commons
  has no id space for this table: seed A (`hooks/scripts/pre-edit-secrets.mjs`) carries a name
  and a pattern per entry and nothing else, so entries are keyed by human-readable `name` while
  the guard emits `egress:<id>`, and a fixture names labels. This is the only one of the three
  an answer can resolve, and it is the outgoing question. (2) Match semantics disagree:
  `first match wins` with `ordering.normative: true` here, against `finditer` over all 25
  patterns there — one witness, an `Authorization` header holding a three-part JWT, produces
  **one** label under commons' declared contract and **two** from the guard. (3) Membership
  diverges both ways and is inherited from two different seeds (seed A 19 entries, seed B 33,
  the guard ported 25, 8 unported), so re-measuring either port cannot close it. The blocker
  points to `docs/secret-egress-divergence.md` for the method behind every number.
 - **Two hand-carried numbers in the retired text are corrected in the same string.**
  `aws-access-key-id` was called "the one clean one-to-one": measured, only **2 of 19** commons
  patterns are byte-identical to a guard pattern after unescaping, and AWS is not among them —
  the guard anchors the same run as `\bAKIA[0-9A-Z]{16}\b`. `GitHub Token` was called "four ids
  there": measured on witnesses it maps to **three**, and leaves `ghu_` and `ghr_` covered by no
  guard id. Both were transcription, not measurement. What is retracted is quoted in place; the
  full retired text stands in git at `conformance/manifest.json` 0.5.0.
 - **`scope_planned.$comment` said "a distinct unresolved question" — singular.** Left alone it
  would tell a reader the case becomes mintable when an answer arrives, which is true of one
  reason in three. Amended alongside the blocker rather than after it, since the two are read
  together.
 ### Measured
 - **The standing requirement was measured here, not transcribed from the document.**
  `entry_points_by_scope.scopes` carries **no entry at all** for `signatures/secret-egress.json`
  — the three declared scopes are the lexicon, active-content and carriers. Entry point,
  findings accessor and fixture presentation must be filled for both runtimes before a first
  egress case, independently of the three reasons. It is recorded as a requirement, not as a
  fourth reason: it would stand even if all three were resolved tomorrow.
 - **No id string is proposed, in this file or anywhere else.** Checked against the two outgoing
  coord messages of 2026-08-13 rather than assumed: both state in as many words that no id is
  being proposed. Naming an id in a shared space is the exception `carrier:*` established, it
  requires both runtimes asked first, and both are unanswered.
 `conformance/manifest.json` 0.5.0 → 0.5.1. No case directory, no `expected.json` and no
 signature table changed; `git status` shows one file besides this changelog.
 ## [0.7.1] — 2026-08-13
 Two loose ends from `0.7.0`, neither of which changes a contract.
 ### Fixed
 - **The README still named the manifest as the authority for the variant rule.** It read
  "see `case_id_derivation.variant_suffix` in the manifest" — true until `0.7.0`, when the
  rule became normative in `spec/conformance-corpus.md` §6 and the manifest's block became
  the *measurement* behind it rather than the contract. Left alone it would have reproduced
  in one line the same defect `0.7.0` closed: a reader sent to the wrong authority.
 ### Measured
 - **The `__` half of the derivation was re-measured too, not just the `--` half.** `0.7.0`
  made a point of re-measuring `--` rather than copying the manifest's `0.3.0` numbers
  forward, while the adjacent sentence asserting that `__` "does not occur anywhere in the
  ratified id space" was inherited untested — a claim about this release's own soundness that
  the release did not check. Measured now across all five published id spaces: the 83 lexicon
  ids, the 7 `active:` ids, the 3 `carrier:` ids, the 7 malware rule ids and the 19
  secret-egress entry names carry **neither** `__` nor `--`. The one-to-one transform holds.
  No text changed; the sentence was true. It is now true *and* measured.
 ## [0.7.0] — 2026-08-13
 **The normative spec forbade, in as many words, a case the corpus has shipped since
 `0.3.0`.** `spec/conformance-corpus.md` §6 read *"Such a payload MUST NOT be given a
 discriminated case id; the derivation rule is the contract, and a suffix would break the
 reverse transform"* while `conformance/manifest.json` defined `case_id_derivation.
 variant_suffix` and `conformance/hybrid-xss__script-tag--src-no-close/` sat on disk under it.
 The manifest was the correct party; the spec was simply never updated when the derivation was
 extended. **No data moves in this release — only the normative text that describes it.**
 ### Fixed
 - **§6's derivation block now states the rule the corpus actually uses.**
  ```
  before   case_id    = pattern_id with ":" replaced by "__"
           pattern_id = case_id with "__" replaced by ":"
  after    case_id    = pattern_id with ":" replaced by "__",
                        optionally followed by "--" and a variant slug of [a-z0-9-]
           pattern_id = case_id truncated at the first "--" if present,
                        then "__" replaced by ":"
  ```
  The `--`-absence measurement moves into the spec as the reason the reverse transform stays
  **lexical**: a runtime MUST be able to recover a `pattern_id` by splitting the string, and
  MUST NOT need a lookup against the published id list to find where the id ends and the
  variant begins. Re-measured at this commit rather than copied from the manifest's 0.3.0
  numbers: `--` occurs in none of the 83 lexicon ids, none of the three `carrier:` ids, none
  of the `active:` construct ids, none of the seven malware rule ids and none of the 19
  secret-egress entry names — and in exactly one of the 94 case ids, the variant itself. It
  does occur inside *pattern* values (`<!--\s*(?:AGENT|AI|…)`, `-----BEGIN … PRIVATE KEY-----`),
  which is why the claim is scoped to id spaces and not to the data files as a whole. The
  spec states the property, not the counts, which is what keeps it from going stale the way
  "verified collision-free across all 90" in the manifest did.
 - **The predicate for minting a variant was wrong, and fixing only the permission would have
  legalised the shipped case under a rule that still forbids it.** §6 reasoned that if two
  payloads' in-scope finding sets are equal, the second "cannot fail in any way the first does
  not." The shipped variant falsifies that: it expects the *same* single finding, in the same
  scope, under the same `match`, and still gates something its base cannot — the base input
  matches `hybrid-xss:script-tag` under both the published form and the stricter form that
  preceded it, so reinstating the stricter form leaves it passing, while the variant input
  matches only the published form and fails. The distinguishing signal is *inside* the scope,
  in the form of the scoped rule itself, which is exactly what a finding-set comparison cannot
  see.
  The `MUST NOT` is replaced by a predicate that admits the shipped case and still excludes
  the omitted one:
  > A variant case MAY be minted when the second input can fail, **within the case's scope**,
  > under a change to a scoped data file that the first input would pass. Where no edit to a
  > published table separates the two inputs, the second case cannot fail in any way the first
  > does not, and it MUST NOT be minted.
  Checked against `omitted_payloads`: the guard's seventh active-content payload is
  distinguished from the case already built only by `entropy:base64-blob`, and this repository
  publishes no entropy table, so no edit to any scoped file separates the two inputs. It stays
  omitted, on the one ground the manifest already records as standing. **That verdict is
  unchanged by this release** — the manifest's own note that the derivation ground lapsed in
  `0.3.0` remains the only part of it that has moved.
 - **The manifest's `constraint` is now normative rather than metadata.** A variant case MUST
  be scoped and matched exactly like its base case and MUST expect the same `pattern_id`; the
  suffix distinguishes inputs, never findings. Two cases at one pattern id expecting different
  findings within the same scope are not a variant pair.
 ### Unchanged, deliberately
 - **`conformance/manifest.json` stays at `0.5.0` and no case directory was touched.** The
  corpus version tracks the corpus; no case, no id, no expectation and no measurement changed
  here. Bumping it would date 94 fixtures to a commit that only edited prose.
 - **The spec carries no version of its own, and none was added.** The "Through version 0.1.1"
  reference in §4 is the *corpus* version (`conformance/manifest.json` went `0.1.1` → `0.2.0`
  in the `0.2.0` release), not a spec version — verified before acting, because the session
  brief said otherwise. Normative specs in this repository are versioned by the repository
  tag, exactly as in `0.2.0`, which rewrote §4 and §6 prose under the same mechanism.
 - **§6's stable-id paragraph is untouched.** "A case id is a stable identifier. Changing one
  is a BREAKING change" is a separate rule that sits in the same section; it was read, not
  edited.
 - **Minor, not major, and the reason is uncomfortable enough to state:** a consumer whose
  reverse transform is `--`-naive has been broken since `v0.3.0`, when the case shipped. This
  release documents that break; it does not create it. Nothing here changes a key, a case id
  or a disposition.
 ### Verification
 Mechanical, in scratchpad, never in the repository (charter). The amended derivation was
 transcribed out of the prose into a checker that reads all 94 cases back from disk and, for
 each: asserts `case_id` equals the directory name, applies the reverse transform, round-trips
 it forward, and asserts the derived `pattern_id` is one the case expects. All 94 reproduce.
 The variant's scope, `match` and findings were asserted identical to its base case — the new
 MUST, executed rather than eyeballed — and the checker also asserts that the withdrawn
 sentences are gone and that the three stable-id sentences are still present verbatim (the
 diff carries them as context lines, not as edits).
 ## [0.6.0] — 2026-08-13
 **A seventh active-content case, and the whole raw-HTML classifier moves forward with it.
 Adopting one new label meant adopting the function that produces it — `active_tag_class` is
 one function with three branches, and publishing the label on top of the old predicate would
 have shipped a contract that looks complete and is wrong.**
 ### Added
 - `conformance/active__raw-html-link` — the seventh case scoped to
  `signatures/active-content.json`, one per published id. Corpus goes 93 → **94**. Input
  `<a href="https://evil.test/collect?d=stolen">t</a>`, taken **verbatim** from the seed
  runtime's own coverage matrix (`coverage.py`, extracted from its AST, not retyped), so this
  case sits inside the corpus's usual provenance rather than under `authored_payloads`.
  Measured at `be9759b` (v0.7.0) through `scan_output(text, source=Source.OUTPUT)`: one
  in-scope finding, `active:raw-html-link` at MEDIUM, no residue.
  **One input witnesses both halves of the upstream change.** The opening `<a href>` is the
  carrier split; the closing `</a>` is the no-URL narrowing and is inert, which is why the
  finding's count is 1 and not 2.
 - `signatures/active-content.json` `0.2.0` → `0.3.0` — the id `active:raw-html-link`,
  adopted verbatim. **No name was chosen and neither runtime was asked to choose one**: the
  seed runtime shipped the class string, and this file's own derivation rule (`"active:"` +
  the `constructs` key) turns it into an id mechanically. Only one runtime implements this
  table, so unlike `codepoints/carriers.json` there was no second namer to consult and no
  decision to ratify.
  New in the same file: `html.algorithm` (the classifier as four ordered steps),
  `html.url_affordance_tags`, `html.link_tags`, `html.mutator_tags`,
  `html.url_attr_external_test`, and `pass_order.raw_html_pass_is_one_scan_two_buckets`.
 ### Changed
 - **`signatures/active-content.json` is no longer a single-pin extraction.** Everything
  outside the raw-HTML classifier stays at v0.3.4 / `0bf0729`; the classifier is re-pinned
  to v0.7.0 / `be9759b`. Two pins, stated as two, because one pin would misdescribe both
  halves. The v0.1.0 behaviour-preservation invariant covered the *extraction* and does not
  forbid tracking the seed runtime forward.
 - **The drift was measured field by field, not assumed.** Every regex, severity, tag list and
  numeric floor the file publishes was compared against the v0.7.0 module by importing it and
  reading the compiled objects — after stripping Python's inline-flag rendering and applying
  the file's own declared `redundant-quote-escape` normalisation, so a spelling difference
  could not masquerade as drift. **Exactly one published field had drifted**, and it is not
  the one this release set out to change:
  `html.active_tags` was publishing the **mutator's** name set (23 entries, with `base`)
  where the `active_tag` gate means the **scanner's** (22, without). Correct at the 0.3.4 pin,
  when the runtime had one set; wrong from the runtime's 0.6.0, when the two diverged. The
  full 23 are preserved as `html.mutator_tags` rather than deleted — a consumer that also
  defangs needs them, and it is the value this key used to carry.
  Everything else — every construct pattern, both gate patterns, all of `url_shape`,
  `defang`, `evidence` and the opacity floors — is byte-identical at 0.3.4 and at 0.7.0.
 - **`active:raw-html` narrows, and a new `behaviour_change` block in the file says how.**
  `<a>`/`<area>` move out into `active:raw-html-link` (HIGH → MEDIUM, and a different label);
  tags whose whole affordance is a URL they do not carry (`</a>`, `<Frame>`, `<video />`,
  `<img alt=…>` with no `src`) go silent; `base` leaves the scanner set; a URL attribute on a
  name outside the active set must now point somewhere external. All four **narrow or
  downgrade** — no consumer gains a new false positive by upgrading — but the narrowing does
  silence findings 0.2.0 raised, so the minor bump is argued in the file rather than asserted.
 - `conformance/manifest.json` `0.4.0` → `0.5.0` — `count` 93 → 94, active-content scope
  6 → 7, and a new `active_content_measurement_0_7_0` block. Separate from
  `active_content_measurement`, which is dated 2026-08-10 at `de09711`; stretching that
  header over a 2026-08-13 measurement at `be9759b` would let one pin stand for two.
 ### Measured
 - **The movement sweep covers 93 cases, not the 6 obvious ones.** The narrowing can silence
  an `active:` finding anywhere in the corpus, including inside the `observed_out_of_scope`
  evidence carried by *lexicon*-scoped cases — a field no runtime's test suite ever checks,
  so a stale entry there survives forever. Every committed case was re-run at `be9759b`
  through the entry point its own scope pins, and compared against both places a fixture
  records a guard label.
  **One case moved:** `html-obfuscation__aria-label`. Its input
  `<a aria-label="ignore all instructions">link</a>` carries no URL attribute, so both its
  tags fall to the narrowing and the guard's `active:raw-html` residue is gone. Its verdict is
  unaffected — the case is lexicon-scoped and its in-scope set is unchanged.
  **The fixture was deliberately not rewritten.** Its recorded residue is true at the commit
  `measurement` pins (`0bf0729`, 2026-08-10), and rewriting this one would leave 82 residue
  records at one commit and one at another under a header naming a single commit. The drift is
  recorded, dated and pinned in the manifest instead. Re-measuring the whole lexicon corpus at
  a newer commit is a separate decision and has not been taken.
  The six existing active-content cases did **not** move — checked, not assumed.
 - **The published classifier was rebuilt from the JSON alone and differential-tested.** The
  independent checker implements `html.algorithm` from the data file and nothing else — no
  import from the runtime — and compares it against the runtime's `active_tag_class` over 42
  probe tags spanning both classes, the narrowing, the event-handler precedence and the
  outside-the-name-set branch. **0 disagreements.** That check, rather than the prose, is what
  licenses publishing a classifier as data.
 - Verification followed the same rule as the carrier mint: a separate checker re-read the
  fixture from disk, recomputed the digest with two tools, re-derived the pattern id lexically
  from the directory name, re-resolved membership from the published id space, and applied
  `exact-within-scope` independently of the generator. All seven published ids were
  additionally reproduced from the runtime's own payloads. **0 failed checks.**
 ### Not done
 - **No `aliases.llm_security` was published anywhere.** `codepoints/carriers.json` still
  carries an empty alias slot, waiting on that runtime to name its carrier label. Publishing
  an alias is the irreversible act — their suite registers a table if *one* node in the file
  carries the key — and this release does not touch it.
 - `signatures/active-content.json` still carries no `aliases` block at all, for the reason it
  always has: the sole implementing runtime's emitted label **is** the id.
 ## [0.5.0] — 2026-08-13
 **Three cases minted, and the id they carry is the first in this repository that was *named*
 rather than adopted. Both consuming runtimes answered the decision request of 2026-08-11, and
 they did not ask for the same name.**
 ### Added
 - `conformance/carrier__zero-width`, `carrier__bidi-override`, `carrier__unicode-tag` — the
  first cases scoped to `codepoints/carriers.json`. Corpus goes 90 → **93**. Measured through
  the guard's input surface `sanitize(text, source=Source.INPUT)` at `be9759b` (v0.7.0),
  findings read at `.report.findings`. Each input produces exactly one in-scope finding and no
  residue.
 - `codepoints/carriers.json` `0.1.0` → `0.2.0` — a `pattern_id_space` block carrying
  `carrier:zero-width`, `carrier:bidi-override` and `carrier:unicode-tag`, each aliased to the
  guard's label. **These ids name what was OBSERVED, not what was done about it**, and that is a
  departure from how every other id space here was built: the lexicon's 83 and active content's
  6 were adopted verbatim from a runtime's own labels.
  The guard ruled — measured, and correctly — that its `sanitize:` prefix names the producing
  module in `Finding.detector` and never an action, offering all three for verbatim adoption.
  The other runtime, asked the question directly, answered that the name would make its
  conformance result read as a claim about neutralisation it does not perform. Two things
  decided it against verbatim adoption. First, the guard's own unprompted correction: prefix ==
  detector holds for those six labels and is **no general law** in its runtime (`egress:*`
  carries `detector="output"`; decode-and-rescan yields two-part `decoded:lexicon:*`), and a
  prefix whose meaning is recoverable only by reading one implementation cannot carry a *shared*
  id space. Second, a measurement taken here on 2026-08-13: on the very surface the guard's
  ruling pinned, `sanitize()` returns changed text on all three carriers — so the counter-
  argument's decisive case, that `scan_output` mutates nothing, does not reach this surface.
  This is not a mediation between two runtimes. Neither claimed the shared id must equal its own
  label, and the shape is the one the lexicon already had: `override:ignore-previous` carries two
  *different* alias strings today, and neither runtime's label is the id.
 - `conformance/manifest.json` `0.3.4` → `0.4.0` — `entry_points_by_scope`, stating entry point,
  **findings accessor** and **fixture presentation** per scope per runtime. The corpus previously
  pinned one entry point per runtime for all cases, which held for exactly as long as every case
  was reachable from one surface. Neither pinned entry point reaches carriers. Both runtimes
  said independently that the manifest was the right place for this: the guard rather than grow
  an API wrapper for this corpus's benefit, llm-security to record that its carrier entry point
  is path-based and **cannot measure a bare `input.txt`** — the fixture must reach it as a
  discovered file. Also adds `carrier_measurement`.
 ### Fixed
 - `conformance/manifest.json` — the retired carrier blocker asserted a general rule, "THE PREFIX
  NAMES THE DETECTOR", about a runtime this repository does not own. The guard corrected it at
  its commit `0903785`: true of those six labels, false as a law. The claim is now **scoped to
  the six** wherever it is stated, and the general form appears nowhere — checked across
  `CONVENTIONS.md`, `README.md`, `spec/` and `docs/`. The retired text is kept verbatim under
  `scope_planned.blockers_resolved`, because a record corrected in place cannot be audited.
 ### Notes
 - **`not-applicable` here records a missing name, not a missing capability.** Both runtimes
  implement the carrier tables — llm-security builds its zero-width, tag-range and BIDI sets from
  this very file — but its carrier findings carry no id yet (`scanner: 'UNI'`, a severity and a
  prose title). So `carriers.json` carries **no `aliases.llm_security`**, the file stays outside
  that runtime's declared set, and the three cases are `not-applicable` there today. This is
  deliberate and stated in the file: publishing that alias is the irreversible act, since it
  forces the table into that runtime's declared set by force of its own test suite. The slot is
  filled when the label exists and is named to us.
 - **Not minted, on purpose.** No artifact-side carrier id (`output:zero-width-present`,
  `output:bidi-present`, `lexicon:unicode-tags-present`) — the other runtime has no artifact
  surface for carriers, so those cases could only fail there, and a permanently red gate is one a
  reader learns to ignore. And no case for the ZWJ exemption: U+200D between two emoji is exempt
  on both guard surfaces since v0.6.1, verified here, and the zero-width fixture carries a bare
  U+200B between two letters so as not to be failed by design. Whether that exemption is a shared
  rule or one runtime's policy has not been put to the other runtime.
 - **The guard's v0.7.0 does not move a published fixture.** Re-measured, not inferred: all six
  active-content cases produce their committed verdicts at `be9759b`, and the new
  `active:raw-html-link` label is confirmed to reach `<a>` and `<area>` only, with
  `<a onclick=…>` still grading `active:raw-html` at HIGH. Adopting that seventh construct into
  `signatures/active-content.json` is a separate decision and is **not** taken here.
 ## [0.4.3] — 2026-08-11
 **No fixture, id or `expected.json` moved — a runtime that passes `0.4.2` passes `0.4.3`
 unchanged. What changed is a claim this repository made about a runtime it does not own, and the
 claim was wrong on the day it was written.**
 ### Fixed
 - `conformance/manifest.json` `0.3.2` → `0.3.4` — the `scope_planned.blockers` entry for
  `codepoints/carriers.json` described the guard as emitting two stage-coupled labels per carrier,
  "the same split for bidi and unicode-tag". The artifact-side label for tags is
  `lexicon:unicode-tags-present`, emitted from `lexicon.py`, and `output.py` carries a comment
  saying it deliberately does not repeat it there. **Wrong when written, not stale:** checked at
  `e671edb` — the commit the sibling secret-egress blocker was measured against — where
  `coverage.py` already asserted that label, and re-measured at `a59184b`.
  The correction moves the blocker rather than removing it. The guard's `Finding` carries a
  `detector` field beside `label`, and the prefix is that field's value: `detector="lexicon"` on
  `lexicon:unicode-tags-present`, `"output"` on `output:zero-width-present`. **The prefix names
  the detector, not the pipeline stage** — and for tags a single detector serves both entry
  points, which is why there is no sixth `output:` label to find. "A commons id would have to be
  invented stage-neutral" was never the problem. Six labels exist to adopt verbatim, the way the
  83 lexicon ids were adopted from this same runtime's port.
  What blocks adoption is measured and named instead, at llm-security `47905da`: `sanitize:`
  asserts a strip that runtime does not perform (`scanners/unicode-scanner.mjs` exports one entry
  point, `scan(targetPath, discovery)`, reporting presence with `scanner: 'UNI'`, a prose title
  and no id); three of the six name a persist gate it does not have, which the corpus already has
  a verdict for — §1.1 `not-applicable`, attaching to a declared **table** — but which
  **publishing the alias is what takes away**: that runtime's suite walks each vendored file for
  any node carrying `aliases.llm_security` and asserts every registered table is declared, so one
  aliased carrier id forces `codepoints/carriers.json` into a declared set of what is today the
  lexicon alone, obliging it to run all six cases and converting the three artifact-side ones into
  failures; and the entry point pinned for it in `measurement.runtimes` (`scanForInjection`) does not
  reach carriers at all, so carrier cases need a per-scope entry point this manifest expresses
  nowhere. Both runtimes already build their carrier sets from `codepoints/carriers.json`, so the
  divergence is in what a finding is *called* and where it can be *observed*, never in which code
  points are carriers.
 ### Asked, not decided
 - The three objections went to both runtimes over coord on 2026-08-11 as a decision request, each
  asked the question only it can answer. **Nothing was minted.** A case id is contract surface
  consumers pin against, and publishing a single carrier alias is itself irreversible — it widens
  another runtime's declared table set by force of that runtime's own test suite. Minting first
  would have made a proposal into a fait accompli. The manifest records the request, so a later
  reader can tell "asked, unanswered" from "nobody asked".
 - **A correction followed the request the same day, on our own error.** The request asserted that
  the corpus had no third verdict for a case a runtime cannot reach. It has one — §1.1
  `not-applicable` — and this repository wrote that section. The question was put before its own
  normative spec was re-read; the follow-up says so to both runtimes and restates the choice as
  mint-input-side-only, accept three standing failures, or publish a guard-only id space with no
  `llm_security` alias at all.
 ## [0.4.2] — 2026-08-11
 **No data file changed and no pattern moved.** A runtime that passes `0.4.1` passes `0.4.2`
 unchanged; there is nothing here to re-measure. What the release adds is the rule set an outside
 contributor could not previously read — including the reason the forge surface is shaped the way
 it is.
 ### Added
 - `CONVENTIONS.md` — the whole rule set a change here is held to, consolidated. **Not new
  policy:** the charter lives in `CLAUDE.md`, the versioning and vendoring rules in `README.md`,
  the reporting route in `SECURITY.md`, and the file conventions were visible only in the shape
  of the files. Collected because a convention that exists only in the maintainer's head is not
  one an outside reader can meet.
  Two things in it were previously inferable at best. **Why pull requests are off:** this
  repository is vendored into independent runtimes that pin a tag, so a change to detection data
  changes what they *find*, and that has to be coordinated with each consumer **before it
  exists** — which a merge button cannot do. `org-ops` reached that conclusion on 2026-08-11
  from a README line, and the conclusion was right; this file is the ground it was missing.
  **When a value may change:** the three mechanisms that have moved one so far — re-extraction,
  retraction, and owner-directed authoring — each named with the `source_fidelity` key that
  records it, and merit named explicitly as *not* on that list.
  It also carries the four offline checks that stand in for the CI this organisation does not
  have. Each was confirmed to go **red** on a violation, not merely green on a clean tree: a
  JSON file with no `version`, a `spec/` file with no normative marker, and a planted `.sh` were
  each detected. A check that cannot fail proves nothing. The checks are shell one-liners rather
  than a script because a script would be `.sh`, and check 4 would fail on the tooling meant to
  enforce it.
 - `README.md` — a short **Contributing** section pointing at it, carrying the pull-request answer
  inline so a reader who never opens the file still gets it. Same pattern the
  **Reporting a wrong entry** section followed for `SECURITY.md` in `0.3.1`.
  The four `v0.4.1` references in the install block and the layout table move to `v0.4.2`.
 This closes the second half of what `org-ops` recorded as missing against the org standard on
 2026-08-11. `SECURITY.md` was the first half, in `0.3.1`.
 ## [0.4.1] — 2026-08-11
 **No data file changed and no pattern moved. A number this repository published was wrong, and
 it was wrong in our favour's opposite direction — the corrected figures are larger.** A runtime
 that passes `0.4.0` passes `0.4.1` unchanged.
 ### Fixed
 - `docs/lexicon-port-divergence.md` (informative) — the ReDoS figures for
  `hybrid-xss:iframe-src` read **~3× low**, and the Python `script-tag` figure at 32 000 chars
  read ~4× low. Flagged by `llm-ingestion-pipeline-security` (coord, 2026-08-11T19:51:55Z), who
  measured the row themselves rather than citing ours.
  Their diagnosis was measurement surface — their composed `scan_lexicon()` against our
  standalone regex. **Checked, and that is not the cause:** our standalone 100 000-char figure
  (7.86 s) sits close to their composed 8.95 s, so the two surfaces differ by far less than the
  error. Re-measured standalone, Python 3.14.0: `iframe-src` `[^>]*` is 822.7 ms at 32 000 chars
  and 51 477.4 ms at 256 000, against the published 119.6 ms and 16 857 ms. The Python
  `script-tag` figure at 256 000 chars *does* reproduce (5.44 s published, 5.22 s measured); the
  one at 32 000 chars does not (0.021 s against 0.087 s).
  The error ratios are not constant, so a single mis-sized input does not explain it, and the
  original harness lived in a previous session's scratchpad and no longer exists. **The cause is
  recorded as not diagnosable rather than guessed at.** The correction is a box in the document
  carrying the re-measured table, and the superseded figures are struck in place rather than
  quietly overwritten — a consumer who cited the old number needs to find out that they did.
  Nothing about the `0.4.0` decision depends on this. Every corrected figure is larger, the
  shape is unchanged (quadratic, ×4 per doubling), and both `[^><]*` forms remain flat under
  both engines. The `0.4.0` entry below still quotes the old `iframe-src` figure; it is left as
  published, because that section is the record of what was released.

  **fixture-presentasjon** per scope per runtime. En runtime hvis flate er sti-basert kan

 - **En innsnevring måles mot HELE korpuset, ikke mot casene den handler om.** Endrer en
  oppdatering hva en runtime *slutter* å rapportere, kan den tømme et `observed_out_of_scope`
  hvor som helst — også på caser scopet til en helt annen tabell. Det feltet er evidens
  (spec §5), så **ingen testsuite noe sted vokter det**: en foreldet oppføring består hver
  kjøring for alltid. Kjør hver committet case gjennom sitt eget scopes inngangspunkt og
  sammenlign mot BEGGE stedene fixturen fører en runtime-label — `findings` (mappet via
  tabellens aliases) og `observed_out_of_scope`. Målt 2026-08-13: seks «åpenbare» caser
  flyttet seg ikke, én lexicon-case gjorde det.
 - **En foreldet residue-oppføring skrives ikke om — den pinnes.** `observed_out_of_scope` er

  commit i stedet. Å re-pinne hele korpuset er en egen beslutning.
 - **Like funn-sett betyr ikke lik feilflate.** Spørsmålet som avgjør om en variant-case skal
  mintes er ikke om de to inputene gir ulike funn innenfor scope — det er om den andre
  inputen kan FEILE, innenfor scope, under en endring i den scopede datafila som den første
  ville bestå. Korpusets første variant forventer nøyaktig samme funn som base-casen og
  gater likevel noe base-casen ikke ser: base-inputen matcher mønsteret både i publisert og
  i tidligere, strengere form. En payload hvis skille ligger i en tabell vi ikke publiserer
  består ikke terskelen og føres som navngitt utelatelse. Spec §6 bærer regelen.
 ### Id-rom: adoptert vs. navngitt
 Standard er **adopsjon verbatim** fra en runtimes egne labels (leksikonets 83, active
 contents 6). Å NAVNGI en id her er unntaket og krever at begge runtimes er spurt først —
 `carrier:*` er den eneste så langt, og `carriers.json` bærer begrunnelsen.
 To regler som ikke er utledbare fra dataene:
 - **Et prefiks som bare betyr noe inne i én runtime kan ikke bære et DELT id-rom.** Guarden
  korrigerte oss selv på at «prefiks == `detector`-feltet» gjelder seks carrier-labels og
  er ingen lov i deres runtime. Skriv aldri den generelle formen; skop påstanden til de
  konkrete id-ene.
 - **Å publisere `aliases.<runtime>` er den irreversible handlingen, ikke å minte casen.**
  Konsumentens testsuite utleder sitt registrerte tabellsett ved å gå gjennom HELE den
  vendorede fila og registrere tabellen om ÉN node bærer aliaset. Granulariteten er FILA.
  Ett alias tvinger tabellen inn i deres `DECLARED_TABLES` og forplikter dem på hver case
  scopet dit. Mangler alias-strengen: **la slotten stå tom og si det** — `not-applicable`

 ### Å adoptere én ny id fra en runtime som har flyttet seg
 Standardtilfellet er additivt: en ny nøkkel, en ny id, ferdig. Det holder bare når
 **produsenten** av den nye id-en er uendret. Er den nye id-en et nytt utfall av en

 # Conventions
 The rules a change to this repository is held to, in one place.
 Nothing here is new policy. Every rule below was already being applied — some of it stated in
 [README.md](README.md), some in [SECURITY.md](SECURITY.md), some only visible in the shape of
 the files themselves. It is collected here because a convention that only exists in the
 maintainer's head is not a convention an outside reader can meet, and because two of the
 decisions this repository makes — that nothing here runs, and that pull requests are switched
 off — look arbitrary until the reason is written down next to them.
 This file binds **contributions to this repository**. It does not bind the runtimes that read
 the data; that is what `spec/` is for, and those files say `Status: normative` and mean it.
 ## The charter: nothing here runs
 **This repository contains no executable code, and it will not acquire any.**
 Not permitted, without exception:
 - `.mjs`, `.js`, `.ts`, `.py`, `.sh` — or any other file that implements detection, scanning,
  normalisation, scoring or I/O;
 - `package.json`, `pyproject.toml`, lockfiles, dependencies, build steps;
 - an import of, or knowledge of, any framework, SDK or runtime;
 - network access, model calls, dependence on the clock, or randomness.
 Permitted: JSON data, normative specifications in Markdown, and conformance fixtures
 (`input.txt` plus `expected.json`).
 The reason is `fork-and-own`. A consumer on a runtime nobody here has thought of should be able
 to vendor this repository without inheriting a single technology choice. A build step is a
 technology choice; so is a test runner. The moment one exists, the set of runtimes that can
 adopt this core shrinks to the set that tolerates it.
 The consequence is that **this repository cannot validate itself**. There is no CI in this
 organisation and nothing runs on push. The checks below are yours to run, and they are the only
 ones there are.
 ## How a change gets in — and why not by pull request
 Pull requests are switched off on the canonical repository at
 `git.fromaitochitta.com/open/llm-security-commons`, and issues are not the reporting channel
 either. That is deliberate, and the reason is stronger than a preference about tooling.
 This repository is **vendored into independent runtimes** — a Claude Code plugin on Node/ESM, a
 Python guard, an advisory surface — each pinning a tag. The contract between them is semver, and
 a change to detection data changes what those runtimes *find*. A patch to a pattern table is not
 a contribution that can be merged and then socialised; it is a contract change that has to be
 coordinated with every consumer **before it exists**, because the moment it is tagged, the next
 consumer to pull it gets different findings than the one that pulled yesterday. A merge button
 does not do that, and nothing downstream of a merge button can.
 So the routes in are:
 1. **Fork and own it.** MIT, and an intended use rather than a tolerated one. If you need a
   different value in your runtime, this is the fast path and it is fully supported.
 2. **Report it privately** — see [SECURITY.md](SECURITY.md). A wrong entry in a detection table
   is a silent false negative in every runtime that reads it, so a report about one is a
   security report even though nothing here executes. That file also explains why a confirmed
   defect in extracted data is usually decided in the runtime it came from before it changes
   here.
 If you maintain a consumer, the coordination channel is direct contact with the maintainer, not
 this repository's forge surface.
 ## Data files (JSON)
 - **Every JSON file carries a top-level `"version"`** — a semver string. No exceptions.
 - **Every JSON file states what it is and where its data came from**, in a top-level
  `"$comment"` or `"description"`. Provenance is not optional metadata here; it is what makes
  the difference between a table and a rumour.
 - 2-space indentation, LF line endings, a trailing newline, UTF-8 without BOM.
 - **Code points are written as strings** — `"U+200B"` — never as the raw invisible character.
  Review cannot see what it cannot render, and a reviewer who cannot see a character cannot
  check it. The single exception is `conformance/*/input.txt`, which by definition contains the
  actual bytes.
 - **Keys are stable identifiers.** Consumers match on them. **Changing a key is a breaking
  change** and is versioned as one.
 The four files that carry detection material — `codepoints/carriers.json`,
 `signatures/secret-egress.json`, `signatures/malware-signatures.json`,
 `signatures/active-content.json` — take one further rule, which is the most important line in
 this document:
 > **They are changed only from verified source data** — a dump from the owning repository, the
 > Unicode standard, published vendor documentation. Never from memory, never "filled in for
 > consistency". A guessed code point or a regex with wrong escaping is a silent false negative:
 > a detector that looks like it is working and is not looking. If an entry cannot be verified,
 > leave it out, or mark it explicitly unverified in its `$comment`.
 ## Specifications (Markdown)
 - A normative specification carries **`Status: normative`** at the top and uses RFC 2119 terms
  (MUST / MUST NOT / SHOULD / MAY) in uppercase, deliberately. These files bind the
  implementations that read them.
 - An informative document (`docs/`) carries **`Status: informative`** and is **never ground
  truth**. It records measurements, history and open disagreements; a runtime is not wrong for
  disagreeing with one.
 - Naming a file that does not exist yet is allowed where the layout is part of the contract —
  `spec/decode-pipeline.md` is named in README.md and marked **Planned**. It is not a link, and
  nothing depends on it. A normative spec guessed at would be worse than an absent one.
 ## Conformance cases
 - One directory per case: `conformance/<case-id>/input.txt` and
  `conformance/<case-id>/expected.json`.
 - `<case-id>` is stable and descriptive. **Changing a case id is a breaking change** — a
  published conformance result names it.
 - `expected.json` is **ground truth**. If a runtime disagrees with it, the runtime is wrong.
 - One way that reverses: the fixture is proven wrong. Then the fixture changes **in its own
  commit, with the reason written down** — never folded into a change that does something else,
  because a fixture edit is the one edit that can make every conforming runtime wrong
  identically.
 - The other, added in `v0.9.0`: where a case's scope is a table only one runtime implements and
  that runtime authored the payload, a divergence by **that** runtime is neither a proven-wrong
  fixture nor necessarily its bug. The fixture is not rewritten on the divergence alone — it is
  recorded against the version pinned, and re-pinning is a separate release. Through `v0.8.1`
  this list carried only the first way. See
  [`spec/conformance-corpus.md` §7.1](spec/conformance-corpus.md).
 - A case declares the data files it is `scope`d to. A runtime that does not implement a scoped
  table reports the case `not-applicable` — a third verdict beside pass and fail, and one that
  must be reported rather than dropped from the denominator. See
  [`spec/conformance-corpus.md`](spec/conformance-corpus.md).
 ## When a value may change
 Detection values do not change here because someone here judged them wrong. Three mechanisms
 have moved a value so far, and each is recorded in the file itself rather than only in the
 changelog:
 1. **Re-extraction** — the owning runtime changed its own value, and this repository re-read the
   source at a pinned public commit. Recorded in `source_fidelity.post_extraction_drift`.
 2. **Retraction** — this repository described its own provenance wrongly. The stored value may
   have been right all along; the account of where it came from was not. Recorded in
   `source_fidelity.retracted`.
 3. **Owner-directed authoring** — the owning runtime decided a value and asked this repository
   to carry it, because the dependency has inverted: the source now reads *this* file and holds
   no literal to re-read. Recorded separately, in `source_fidelity.owner_directed_changes`,
   precisely because calling it drift would assert that the source moved and commons followed —
   which would be false in the one direction that matters.
 What is **not** on that list is merit. Data extracted from an implementation is kept
 behaviour-identical to it on purpose, because a copy that disagrees with its source is the exact
 failure this repository exists to prevent. Producing one as a *fix* would be self-defeating. If
 you believe an extracted value is wrong, say so — and expect the decision to be taken in the
 runtime where the pattern is under test.
 Data **authored here** rather than extracted — conformance payloads, flagged as
 `authored_payloads` in `conformance/manifest.json` — is this repository's own to correct.
 ## Versioning
 Two version numbers, and they are not locked to each other:
 - **The repository tag** (`vX.Y.Z`) versions **the contract**: the file set, the key names, the
  case ids, the disposition semantics.
 - **Each JSON file's own `"version"`** is bumped when *that file* changes.
 What counts as which:
 | Change | Bump |
 | --- | --- |
 | New data field, new entry | minor |
 | Changed or removed key, case id, or layout | **major** — consumers break |
 | A change to what a conforming runtime *finds* | minor in 0.x, and the changelog says so |
 That last row is why **the changelog entry is the thing to read before upgrading, not the
 version number**. Pre-1.0, a release that changes findings is still a minor bump; only the entry
 tells you whether your assertions move.
 Consumers vendor **a tag, never `main`** — a conformance result can only be attributed to a tag.
 Nothing polls for updates; when a change moves detection data, the maintainer notifies known
 consumers directly, and their upgrade remains their own action on their own schedule.
 ## Checks to run before proposing a change
 There is no CI. These four are the validation surface, they run offline in a second, and each
 one has been confirmed to go red on a violation rather than merely green on a clean tree.
 ```bash
 # 1. Every JSON file is well-formed
 find . -name '*.json' -not -path './.git/*' -print0 \
  | xargs -0 -n1 python3 -m json.tool > /dev/null && echo OK
 # 2. Every JSON file outside conformance/ carries a top-level "version"
 find . -name '*.json' -not -path './.git/*' -not -path './conformance/*' -print0 \
  | xargs -0 python3 -c 'import json,sys
 missing=[p for p in sys.argv[1:] if "version" not in json.load(open(p))]
 print("\n".join("MISSING version: "+p for p in missing) or "OK")'
 # 3. Every spec carries its normative marker (prints offending files, nothing = clean)
 grep -L 'Status: normative' spec/*.md || echo OK
 # 4. Charter guard: no executable code has crept in
 find . -type f \( -name '*.mjs' -o -name '*.js' -o -name '*.ts' -o -name '*.py' -o -name '*.sh' \) \
  -not -path './.git/*' | grep . && echo 'CHARTER VIOLATION' || echo OK
 ```
 They are written as shell one-liners rather than shipped as a script because a script would be
 `.sh`, and check 4 would then fail on the tooling meant to enforce it.
 What they do **not** check: whether a value is *correct*. Nothing offline can. That is what the
 conformance corpus is for, and it runs in each consumer's own test suite against a pinned tag —
 constraining two of the seven data files, which is a real limit and is stated in

 ## Contributing
 [CONVENTIONS.md](CONVENTIONS.md) is the whole rule set a change here is held to: the charter
 (nothing runs, and why that is load-bearing rather than fussy), the file conventions, when a
 detection value is allowed to move, how the two version numbers work, and the four offline
 checks that stand in for the CI this organisation does not have.
 It also answers the question the forge surface raises on its own: **pull requests are switched
 off, deliberately.** This repository is vendored into independent runtimes that pin a tag, so a
 change to detection data changes what they *find* — that has to be coordinated with each
 consumer before it exists, which a merge button cannot do. Fork-and-own is the supported path;
 a wrong entry is reported privately.

 # Secret-egress divergence — commons vs the Python guard
 **Status: informative.** Nothing here is normative and nothing here changes a data file. It
 records a measured disagreement between two tables that were believed to be two cuts of one
 source, and turns out not to be. Under this repository's behaviour-preservation invariant,
 a divergence found here is **reported, not fixed**.
 Produced 2026-08-13. Every number below came from a command; the scripts live in the session
 scratchpad rather than in this repository, because executable code here would breach the
 charter. They are reproducible from the method column. The guard was read via
 `git archive v0.7.0`, never from its working copy.
 **The premise this document was opened to test does not survive it.** The open question was
 recorded as "19 entries here against the guard's 25, cut at different granularity" — one
 table, two granularities. That is not what the two files are. They are ports of **two
 different source tables in the same source repository**, and the granularity difference is a
 consequence of that, not the cause. Everything below follows from correcting that premise.
 ## What was compared
 | Side | Artefact | Version / coordinate |
 | --- | --- | --- |
 | commons | [`signatures/secret-egress.json`](../signatures/secret-egress.json) | file `version` 0.3.0, 19 entries |
 | guard | `llm-ingestion-pipeline-security` `src/llm_ingestion_guard/output.py` `_SECRET_PATTERNS` | tag `v0.7.0` = commit `be9759b`, 25 entries |
 | seed A | `llm-security` `hooks/scripts/pre-edit-secrets.mjs` `SECRET_PATTERNS` | commit `47905da`, 19 entries — what commons ported |
 | seed B | `llm-security` `knowledge/secrets-patterns.md` | commit `47905da`, blob `a7ed469`, 33 entries — what the guard ported |
 **The guard's v0.7.0 is the guard's current behaviour.** `git diff v0.7.0..aff3511 -- src/`
 is empty, where `aff3511` was the guard's head when this was measured. Pinning at the tag
 therefore costs no currency; it is not a waypoint measurement.
 **Seed B was read, not accepted.** The guard's module docstring asserts *"Ported from the
 `llm-security` `knowledge/secrets-patterns.md` seed"*. That assertion is a claim about a
 third repository and would be an attribution, not a finding, if it were relayed. It was
 measured instead: the file exists at the pinned commit on the public remote, and all 25 of
 the guard's ids appear in it verbatim — `0` guard ids are absent from seed B. The docstring
 is correct.
 **Both seeds are named in commons' own file.** `signatures/secret-egress.json`'s `$comment`
 already says which of the two it took and that the other *"is a separate PCRE-flavoured
 agent-consumed variant that stays where it is"*. What was not known until now is that the
 guard ported the other one.
 ## Result
 | Measure | Method | Result |
 | --- | --- | --- |
 | Entry count, both sides | count entries | 19 and 25 |
 | Seed B entry count | parse the `.md` at the pinned blob | 33 |
 | Guard ids present in seed B | set membership on `id` | **25/25** |
 | Seed B ids the guard did not port | set difference | **8** |
 | Guard vs seed B, field-identical | compare regex (after stripping seed B's `(?i)` inline rendering), flags and severity | **16/25** |
 | — of the 9 remaining, escaping-only | unescape the guard's `\"` (a Python raw-string artefact) and compare for string identity | **4/4 identical** |
 | — of the 9 remaining, behaviourally real | differential match comparison | **5** — 4 connection strings, 1 capture-group change |
 | commons vs guard, byte-identical patterns | unescape both sides' `\/` and `\"`, compare source + flags | **2/19** |
 | Differential probe corpus | one witness per guard id, plus each side's exclusive shapes and the semantics witness | 36 probes |
 | Shapes commons reports and the guard is silent on | differential | **7 witnesses, across 5 commons entries** |
 | Shapes the guard reports and commons is silent on | differential | **3** |
 | Match-semantics divergence | one witness matching two entries on both sides | **1 label vs 2 labels** |
 16 field-identical + 4 escaping-only + 5 real = 25.
 **The `2/19` is the number that says these are not two cuts of one table.** Only
 `GitHub Fine-Grained PAT` ↔ `github-pat-fine-grained` and `OpenAI Legacy API Key` ↔
 `openai-api-key-legacy` are byte-identical after unescaping. Even `AWS Access Key ID` is not:
 commons has `AKIA[0-9A-Z]{16}` and the guard has the same run anchored, `\bAKIA[0-9A-Z]{16}\b`.
 The earlier note calling that pair the one clean 1:1 was wrong, and was wrong by transcription
 rather than by measurement.
 ## Match semantics: the divergence that is not about membership
 This is the finding a membership table would hide, and it is the one a consumer implementing
 from commons will get wrong first.
 `signatures/secret-egress.json` declares ``match_semantics: "first match wins; patterns are
 evaluated in ascending `order`"``, marks `ordering.normative: true`, and names
 `last_entry_is_load_bearing: "JWT (three-part token)"` — the JWT entry is placed last
 precisely so a token inside an `Authorization` header is reported as the header, not as a
 bare JWT.
 The guard's `scan_secret_egress` runs `finditer` over all 25 patterns and adds a finding for
 every match. Order carries **no** semantics there, and there is no first-match-wins layer.
 Measured on one witness — an `Authorization` header whose value is a three-part JWT:
 | Side | Finding set |
 | --- | --- |
 | commons, under its own declared contract | `Authorization header with token` — one label |
 | guard, `scan_secret_egress` at `v0.7.0` | `egress:bearer-token`, `egress:jwt-token` — two labels |
 Both detect the credential. They disagree about what a report says, which is what a
 `conformance/expected.json` encodes. Two runtimes that both "pass" here would still produce
 different fixture files.
 The commons side of this was not hand-rewritten: the evaluator compiles the patterns out of
 the JSON, in `order`, applying `re.I` exactly where the file's own `dialect.translation_notes`
 say to, and stops at the first hit. The guard side is the imported module. Neither table was
 transcribed.
 ## Membership, measured
 Every row below comes from running a witness input through both sides, not from reading the
 two regexes side by side.
 | commons `order` / name | guard ids observed | Relation |
 | --- | --- | --- |
 | 0 `AWS Access Key ID` | `aws-access-key-id` | 1:1, guard anchored |
 | 1 `AWS Secret Access Key` | — | **guard silent** |
 | 2 `Azure Connection String (AccountKey/SharedAccessKey/sig)` | `azure-storage-key` | overlap; see below |
 | 3 `Azure AD ClientSecret` | `azure-client-secret` | 1:1 |
 | 4 `Azure AI Services Key` | — | **guard silent** |
 | 5 `GitHub Token` | `github-pat-classic`, `github-oauth-token`, `github-server-token` | 1:3, **plus 2 prefixes neither guard id covers** |
 | 6 `npm Token` | `npm-token` | 1:1 |
 | 7 `Anthropic API Key` | `anthropic-api-key` | 1:1 |
 | 8 `OpenAI Project Key` | `openai-project-key` | 1:1 |
 | 9 `GitHub Fine-Grained PAT` | `github-pat-fine-grained` | 1:1, **byte-identical** |
 | 10 `Google API Key` | `gcp-api-key` | 1:1 |
 | 11 `Private Key PEM Block` | `rsa-private-key`, `ec-private-key`, `pkcs8-private-key` | 1:3, **minus one PEM label** |
 | 12 `JWT Secret` | — | **guard silent** |
 | 13 `Slack/Discord Webhook URL` | — | **guard silent** |
 | 14 `Generic credential assignment` | `generic-api-key`, `config-password`, `config-secret` | 1:3 |
 | 15 `Authorization header with token` | `bearer-token` (+ `jwt-token`, see semantics) | 1:1 |
 | 16 `Database connection string` | `postgres-connstr`, `mysql-connstr`, `redis-connstr` | 1:3, **minus the MongoDB SRV form** |
 | 17 `OpenAI Legacy API Key` | `openai-api-key-legacy` | 1:1, **byte-identical** |
 | 18 `JWT (three-part token)` | `jwt-token` | 1:1 |
 Guard ids with no commons entry firing on their own witness: `gcp-service-account-json`,
 `mongodb-connstr` — and `ec-private-key` on the `ENCRYPTED` header.
 `Azure Connection String` is listed as *overlap* rather than 1:1 deliberately. Commons'
 entry is `(?:AccountKey|SharedAccessKey|sig)=[A-Za-z0-9+/=]{20,}` — three alternatives, no
 length pin. The guard's `azure-storage-key` is `AccountKey=([A-Za-z0-9+/]{86}==)` — one
 alternative, exact length. The corpus witnessed only the `AccountKey` shape, where both fire.
 `SharedAccessKey=` and `sig=` were not witnessed; seed B carries them under separate ids
 (`azure-servicebus-connstr`, `azure-sas-token`) that the guard did not port. Read this row as
 "one witnessed overlap", not as a coverage claim.
 ## What each side misses that the other catches
 **Commons reports, guard silent — 7 witnesses across 5 commons entries:**
 | Witness shape | commons entry | Why the guard is silent |
 | --- | --- | --- |
 | `ghu_` prefixed token | `GitHub Token` | guard ported `ghp`/`gho`/`ghs`; no id for `ghu` |
 | `ghr_` prefixed token | `GitHub Token` | same |
 | `aws_secret_access_key = <40 chars>` | `AWS Secret Access Key` | seed B has `aws-secret-access-key`; guard did not port it |
 | `Ocp-Apim-Subscription-Key` assignment | `Azure AI Services Key` | absent from seed B entirely |
 | `JWT_SECRET` assignment | `JWT Secret` | absent from seed B entirely |
 | Slack webhook URL | `Slack/Discord Webhook URL` | absent from seed B entirely |
 | Discord webhook URL | `Slack/Discord Webhook URL` | same |
 One row is one witness, so two commons entries appear twice: `GitHub Token` covers five
 prefixes behind one name, and `Slack/Discord Webhook URL` covers two hosts. Counting rows
 rather than entries would overstate how much of commons the guard is missing, and counting
 entries rather than rows would hide that `GitHub Token` is only *partly* uncovered — its
 `ghp`/`gho`/`ghs` prefixes map onto three guard ids just fine.
 Three of the seven are the sharper finding: the `Ocp-Apim-Subscription-Key`, `JWT_SECRET` and
 webhook shapes are not entries the guard declined to port, they are entries **seed B does not
 have**. Seed A carries three shapes seed B never did.
 **Guard reports, commons silent — 3 shapes:**
 | Shape | guard id | Why commons is silent |
 | --- | --- | --- |
 | `"type": "service_account"` | `gcp-service-account-json` | seed A has no GCP service-account marker |
 | `-{5}BEGIN ENCRYPTED PRIVATE KEY-{5}` | `ec-private-key` | commons' PEM alternation is `(?:RSA \| EC \| DSA \| OPENSSH )?`; `ENCRYPTED` is not in it |
 | `mongodb+srv://user:pw@host` | `mongodb-connstr` | commons' scheme run is `(?:postgres\|mysql\|mongodb\|redis)://` — the `+srv` suffix breaks the literal |
 The `mongodb+srv` miss is worth naming precisely: commons is not missing MongoDB, it is
 missing the **SRV** form, which is the form Atlas hands out. Plain `mongodb://` is caught.
 **This asymmetry is not a scoreboard.** Each side is faithful to its own seed. Every shape in
 the left table is present in seed A and absent from seed B; every shape in the right table is
 the reverse. Neither port is wrong about its source. The seeds disagree.
 ## False-positive suppression: a layer commons has no field for
 The guard applies value-based suppression to the five entries that capture a value
 (`_is_fp_value`): structural placeholders (`your-`, `<`, `>`, `***`), word-boundary
 placeholder words (`example`, `changeme`, `todo`, …), variable references (`${`, `$(`,
 `os.environ`, `process.env`, …), all-same-character values, and values under 8 characters.
 Measured:
 | Witness | commons (first match) | guard |
 | --- | --- | --- |
 | `password: 'your-password-here'` | `Generic credential assignment` | — suppressed |
 | `api_key: '${MY_API_KEY_VALUE}'` | `Generic credential assignment` | — suppressed |
 Commons has no field that could carry this. `dialect.translation_notes` warns in prose that
 the generic entries are *"shape matches, not proofs of a live credential"* and assigns the
 trade-off to the consumer's policy — which is a correct statement of ownership and is also
 why two consumers reading commons will produce different reports on the same placeholder.
 Seed B carries the suppression semantics per entry in a `false_positive_notes` field; seed A
 carries name and pattern only, so commons had nothing to extract. This is a gap in the seed,
 not an omission in the extraction.
 ## The connection-string bound
 The guard bounds the password run in all four connection-string patterns at
 `MAX_CONNSTR_VALUE = 256`, and its module explains why in full: an unbounded run in front of
 a required literal makes every start position rescan the tail when the literal never arrives.
 They measured 8.2 s at 100 000 characters on crafted `redis://:` input and extrapolated to
 hours at their own 1 000 000-character cap. Seed B's connection-string patterns are unbounded;
 this is one of the 5 real guard-vs-seed-B drifts, and it is a deliberate, documented one.
 Commons' `Database connection string` is `(?:postgres|mysql|mongodb|redis):\/\/[^\s]+@[^\s]+`
 — **shape-analogous** to what the guard bounded. Measured against the exact boundary:
 | Password length | commons | guard |
 | --- | --- | --- |
 | 12 | matches | `egress:postgres-connstr` |
 | 256 | matches | `egress:postgres-connstr` |
 | 257 | matches | — |
 | 300 | matches | — |
 Read this as two facts, not one verdict. Commons has recall the guard traded away above 256
 characters. Commons also carries the runtime shape the guard's measurement was about — and
 carries it in an *unanchored* form (`[^\s]+@[^\s]+` rather than the guard's
 `[^:@\s]+:…@[^\s'"]+`), so the two are not the same pattern under load and no timing claim
 about commons is made here. **Nothing is changed on that basis.** The entry is faithful to
 seed A, the file that owns it is `llm-security`'s, and the behaviour-preservation invariant
 puts the decision there. It is reported, and the guard's measurement is cited so the owner
 does not have to redo it.
 ## Severity and ids: what commons does not carry
 Seed B carries `id` and `severity` per entry; the guard preserved both, and all 25 severities
 are field-identical to the seed. Seed A carries neither, so commons carries neither, and its
 `evidence_limits` says so explicitly: *"No severity, and no per-entry disposition, was
 supplied … so neither is invented here."*
 That restraint was right and it has a consequence: **commons has no id space for this table.**
 Its entries are keyed by human-readable `name` (`"GitHub Token"`), while the guard emits
 `egress:<id>` labels. A `conformance/expected.json` scoped to secret egress cannot be written
 against commons today, because a fixture names labels and commons has none to name.
 The 25 guard ids are **not guard-internal labels**. They are seed B's ids, adopted verbatim,
 which was measured above (25/25 present in the seed). That makes the id space question a
 question for `llm-security` first — they own both seeds and the id space in one of them — and
 for the guard second. Per this repository's naming rule, **no id is proposed here.** The rule
 that `carrier:*` established applies exactly: naming an id in a shared space is the exception,
 it requires both runtimes asked first, and publishing `aliases.<runtime>` is irreversible at
 file granularity.
 ## What this does not show
 - **It does not show that either table is wrong.** Both are faithful ports. The disagreement
  is between seed A and seed B, inside `llm-security`, and only that repository can say
  whether two tables is intentional (one engine-consumed, one agent-consumed) or whether one
  supersedes the other.
 - **It does not measure seed A's current state.** Commons' fidelity to seed A was verified at
  commit `47905da` and this document adds nothing to that.
  *(Seed B was read at the same commit, which is a shared coordinate and not the commit the
  guard ported from. That was going to be a caveat — a seed-B entry that moved between the
  guard's port and `47905da` would show up here as guard drift. It is dissolved by measurement
  instead: `git log -- knowledge/secrets-patterns.md` in a deepened mirror returns exactly one
  commit at or before `47905da`, `f153f96`, dated 2026-04-08, and the guard's `output.py` was
  first committed 2026-07-04. The seed had been still for three months when the port was
  written and has not moved since. Reading it at `47905da` reads what the guard ported from,
  so the 5 real drifts are guard-side by measurement rather than by inference.)*
 - **It does not compare coverage.** The probe corpus has one witness per guard id plus each
  side's exclusive shapes — 36 inputs. It is built to expose membership and semantics, not to
  estimate recall. `SharedAccessKey=` and `sig=` Azure shapes, and seed B's 8 unported ids,
  have no witness here.
 - **It does not measure the runtimes' entry points.** Both sides were driven at table level:
  commons through an evaluator compiled from its own JSON under its own declared contract, the
  guard through `scan_secret_egress` directly. What `scan_output` composes around it —
  decode-and-rescan re-labelling findings as `decoded:egress:*`, the oversize cap — is not in
  scope and would change the finding sets.
 - **It does not touch `manifest.json`.** `scope_planned.blockers` still names this divergence
  as the blocker for egress cases. Whether this document dissolves that blocker or merely
  describes it is a separate decision, and it depends on answers this document does not have.
 ## Consequence for `conformance/`
 An egress case is not mintable today, and the reason has changed. It was recorded as "the two
 tables are cut at different granularity". The measured reasons are three, and they are
 independent:
 1. **No id space on the commons side.** A fixture names labels. Commons has names, not ids.
   This is the hard blocker and it is the subject of the outgoing question to both runtimes.
 2. **Match semantics disagree.** Even with an id space, the Bearer-plus-JWT witness produces a
   one-label expectation under commons' declared contract and a two-label one from the guard.
   A fixture would have to encode one of them.
 3. **Membership disagrees in both directions**, and the disagreement is inherited from two
   different seeds rather than from a porting error — so it cannot be closed by re-measuring
   either port.
 None of the three is dissolved by a measurement this repository can run alone. Per
 `conformance/manifest.json` → `entry_points_by_scope`, a new scope also needs an entry point,
 a findings accessor and a fixture presentation for every runtime before its first case, and
 those three slots are empty for egress on both runtimes. That requirement stands independently
 of everything above.

+version 0.3.0 extended the derivation with the optional suffix above, and the corpus has
 shipped a case under it since (`hybrid-xss__script-tag--src-no-close`, whose own `$comment`
 carries the rationale for that one). The superseded sentence is named here rather than edited
 away, because it was the stated ground on which a real payload was dropped —
 `omitted_payloads` in [`conformance/manifest.json`](../conformance/manifest.json) records
 that ground as withdrawn and a second, independent ground as still standing.
 The bar for minting a second case is neither that the two inputs differ, nor that their
 in-scope finding sets differ:
 > A variant case MAY be minted when the second input can fail, **within the case's scope**,

 Equal in-scope finding sets do not settle that question, and reading them as if they did is
 the error this paragraph replaces. The corpus's first variant case expects exactly the
 finding set its base case expects — one `pattern_id`, one scope, one `match` — and still
 gates something the base cannot: the base input matches the scoped pattern both in its
 published form and in the stricter form that preceded it, so reinstating the stricter form
 leaves it passing, while the variant input matches only the published form and fails. The
 distinguishing signal is *inside* the scope, in the form of the scoped rule itself, which is
 exactly what a finding-set comparison cannot see.
 The payload that stays out is the mirror image. A source runtime's own test matrix may drive
 two payloads at the same pattern, as one of the seeding runtimes does for
 `active:markdown-image`, whose only difference is a signal from a table this repository does
 not publish. No edit to any scoped file separates them, so the second case could not fail
 where the first passes. Such a payload SHOULD be recorded as a named omission in
 `conformance/manifest.json`, so the drop is visible rather than inferred from a count.
 A variant case MUST be scoped and matched exactly like its base case, and MUST expect the
 same `pattern_id`. **The suffix distinguishes inputs, never findings.** It is not a licence
 to record a second, different verdict for one rule: two cases at one pattern id expecting
 different findings within the same scope are not a variant pair, they are the corpus
 contradicting itself.

 ### 7.1 Where the second paragraph does not hold
 **Through corpus version 0.8.1 this section stated the rule above with no scope at all**, and
 the scope was load-bearing: the justification names *two* implementations. Where a case's
 scope is a table only one runtime implements, and that runtime authored the payload the case
 was extracted from, there is no second implementation whose disagreement the paragraph could
 adjudicate. Which cases those are is recorded in the corpus, not asserted per run — see
 `active_content_provenance.asymmetry` in
 [`conformance/manifest.json`](../conformance/manifest.json).
 For such a case, a disagreement by the **seed runtime itself** is a third thing, and it is
 neither of the two the paragraph offers:
 - The fixture is not proven wrong. It recorded that runtime's behaviour correctly at the
  commit and version its own measurement block pins, and a later classification does not
  reach back and falsify an earlier measurement.
 - The runtime does not necessarily have a bug. Where the seed runtime has stated that the
  classification behind such a table is calibration it does not freeze, a release that
  classifies the payload differently is a change it reserved, not a defect.
 So: the fixture MUST NOT be rewritten on the strength of the divergence alone; the divergence
 SHOULD be recorded against the version pinned; and re-pinning the case to a later version of
 the seed runtime is a separate decision, taken deliberately and released on its own. This is
 the disposition §5 already applies to a stale `observed_out_of_scope` entry, extended to the
 one place where it can reach a verdict — and a divergence recorded here is the signal that
 the re-pinning decision is due, not a reason to leave it open.
 Three things this does **not** do.
 - **It creates no fourth verdict.** The counts of §1.1 and
  [`schema/conformance-declaration.schema.json`](../schema/conformance-declaration.schema.json)
  are unchanged: a case whose expected findings are not produced still **fails**, and is still
  named in `failed_cases`. What changes is what the failure licenses concluding, not what is
  reported.
 - **It does not reach a third-party implementer** of the same table. Against them the fixture
  is the contract, exactly as §7 states — which is what these cases were minted to provide,
  and the only thing they can prove while one runtime is all there is.
 - **It is not a licence to self-declare.** The exemption is carried by the corpus's own
  provenance record for the scope. A runtime MUST NOT claim it for a case by asserting that
  its own divergence is calibration.
