Kjell Tore Guttormsen e6ca5ae5ee feat(active-content): the seventh case, and the classifier it needed came with it
Adopting `active:raw-html-link` was one id. Publishing it honestly was the whole
of `active_tag_class` — one function, three branches, no way to state the split
without the no-URL narrowing and the 0.6.0 external-target rule. On the old
predicate a bare `</a>` is active by name, so a consumer implementing from the
hybrid would emit the new label where the seed runtime emits nothing.

The file is now two pins, stated as two: v0.3.4/0bf0729 everywhere except the
raw-HTML classifier, v0.7.0/be9759b there. The drift between them was measured
field by field against the imported module rather than assumed, after stripping
inline-flag rendering and applying the file's own declared quote normalisation
so a spelling difference could not masquerade as drift. Exactly one published
field had moved, and not the one this release was about: `html.active_tags`
carried the MUTATOR's 23-name set where the gate means the SCANNER's 22. Correct
at the 0.3.4 pin, wrong from 0.6.0 on. Kept as `html.mutator_tags`.

The sweep covered 93 cases, not the 6 obvious ones. The narrowing can silence an
`active:` finding inside the `observed_out_of_scope` evidence of a LEXICON case,
and that field is guarded by no test anywhere — stale entries there survive
forever. One case moved: html-obfuscation__aria-label, whose `<a aria-label=…>`
carries no URL attribute. Its fixture is deliberately not rewritten; the residue
is true at the commit `measurement` pins, and rewriting one of 83 would leave two
commits under a header naming one. Recorded, dated and pinned in the manifest.

The strongest check is not the digest: the checker rebuilds the published
classifier from the JSON alone, importing nothing from the runtime, and
differential-tests it against `active_tag_class` over 42 probe tags. 0
disagreements. That is what licenses shipping a classifier as data.

No `aliases.llm_security` published, on this file or on carriers.

That was an accurate description of the rule and it cost a real case: see `omitted_payloads`, where the guard's seventh active-content payload was dropped for exactly this reason. The rule is now extended rather than worked around. NOTE that the omitted payload has NOT been added back — extending the derivation makes it expressible, but it was omitted on a second ground as well (its in-scope finding set is identical to the case built from coverage.py:476), and that ground still stands unexamined against the new rule. Adding it is a separate decision, not a consequence of this one."

See that file's `pattern_id_space.single_runtime`. `codepoints/carriers.json` (added in 0.4.0) is a THIRD standing again, and the difference is worth stating rather than leaving to be inferred: BOTH runtimes implement its tables — llm-security builds its zero-width, tag-range and BIDI sets from this very file — but only one of them has published a label for the finding. So its three cases are measured against the guard and are `not-applicable` for llm-security TODAY, for a reason that will lapse: the alias slot in `carriers.json` is empty because that runtime's carrier findings carry no id yet, not because it does not implement the table.

A shared id space presupposes a table reconciliation that has not happened. Membership diverges both ways, and `Slack/Discord Webhook URL` (order 13) and `Azure AI Services Key` (order 4) are here and absent from the guard. CORRECTED IN 0.3.1: through 0.3.0 this text ended '(the guard has `gcp-service-account-json` and `openai-api-key-legacy`, which are absent here; ...)'. Two entries were named as one kind of fact, and they are two different kinds. Measured here on 2026-08-11 by running this file's own patterns, in `order`, over a service-account document, against the guard at commit `e671edb` — 18 patterns then, 19 since `secret-egress.json` 0.3.0. (1) `gcp-service-account-json` is NOT a coverage hole here. A complete service-account key file matches this table at order 11, `Private Key PEM Block`: that pattern's prefix group `(?:RSA |EC |DSA |OPENSSH )?` is optional, so the bare PKCS#8 header `-----BEGIN PRIVATE KEY-----` such a file carries is matched. What differs is the CUT POINT: the same document with its `private_key` field removed matches nothing here, while the guard's `\"type\"\\s*:\\s*\"service_account\"` still fires — the guard detects the document MARKER, this table detects the KEY MATERIAL. Both fire on a real key file; only the guard fires on a stripped one. That is exactly the cut-point divergence this blocker is about, and it is not a missing entry. (2) `openai-api-key-legacy` WAS a real hole here and is CLOSED IN 0.3.2. Through `secret-egress.json` 0.2.0 no pattern in this file matched a legacy `sk-…T3BlbkFJ…` key, measured the same way, and llm-security's 18 -> 19 report stood recorded as their unreproduced claim because the commit carrying it was not yet on their public remote. It is now: `refs/heads/main` reads `47905da`, `088e458` is an ancestor of it (checked with `git merge-base --is-ancestor`, not read off their log), and `secret-egress.json` 0.3.0 carries the entry re-extracted from the module text at that commit, with all 19 positions compared for name, source, flags and order. So the two tables now agree on this one shape. What has NOT changed is the reason this blocker exists: 19 against 25 at different cut points is still a table reconciliation nobody has performed, and one closed hole is not that reconciliation."

"retired_blocker_text": "No adoptable id space, and until 0.3.3 the shape of the problem was mis-recorded here. CORRECTED IN 0.3.3: through 0.3.2 this text opened 'The guard emits TWO stage-coupled labels for the same carrier depending on pipeline position — `sanitize:zero-width` (input) versus `output:zero-width-present` (output), and the same split for bidi and unicode-tag'. The split is NOT the same for unicode-tag, and it was not the same on the day that sentence was written: the artifact-side label for tags is `lexicon:unicode-tags-present`, emitted from `lexicon.py`, not an `output:`-prefixed one. Checked at guard commit `e671edb` — the commit this blocker's sibling was measured against — where `coverage.py` already asserted that label, and re-measured at `a59184b`. So the earlier text was wrong when written, not stale. `output.py` states the delegation in a comment: Unicode-tag / PUA stego 'is already surfaced by scan_lexicon (`lexicon:unicode-tags-present`), so it is not repeated'. The labels are therefore not stage-coupled at all. The guard's `Finding` carries a `detector` field alongside `label`, and the prefix is that field's value: `lexicon:unicode-tags-present` carries `detector=\"lexicon\"`, `output:zero-width-present` carries `detector=\"output\"`, `sanitize:*` is emitted by `sanitize.py`. THE PREFIX NAMES THE DETECTOR, not the pipeline stage — and for tags one detector serves both entry points, which is why there is no sixth `output:` label to find. Measured 2026-08-11 at `a59184b`. What remains open is smaller than 'invent a stage-neutral id', and none of it is a naming question. Six labels exist to adopt verbatim, the way the lexicon's 83 ids were adopted from this same runtime: `sanitize:zero-width` / `output:zero-width-present`, `sanitize:bidi-override` / `output:bidi-present`, `sanitize:unicode-tag` / `lexicon:unicode-tags-present`. Three objections stand against adopting them, all measured at llm-security `47905da`: (a) `sanitize:` asserts an ACTION — the carrier was stripped — and llm-security strips nothing. `scanners/unicode-scanner.mjs` exports a single entry point, `scan(targetPath, discovery)`, which reports presence with `scanner: 'UNI'` and a prose `title` and no id at all. Adopting verbatim would hand one runtime an id whose name asserts something it does not do. (b) Three of the six name a persist gate llm-security does not have. The corpus already has the verdict for that — `not-applicable`, spec section 1.1, which attaches to a declared TABLE — and it applies cleanly today, because that runtime's `DECLARED_TABLES` names the lexicon and nothing else (measured at 47905da). WHAT REMOVES IT IS COMMONS PUBLISHING THE ALIAS: their suite derives its registered set by walking each vendored file for any node carrying an `aliases.llm_security` key, then asserts every registered table appears in the declared set — the section 1.1 anti-narrowing floor. The granularity is the FILE, not the entry. So a single carrier id carrying that alias forces `codepoints/carriers.json` into their declared set, obliges them to run all six carrier cases, and converts the three artifact-side ones from not-applicable into failures. Section 1.1 forbids the per-case exit by name, calling it the silent skip section 1 forbids. The choice is therefore between minting only the input-side three, accepting three standing failures that describe an architectural difference rather than a defect, and publishing carrier ids with no llm_security alias at all — a guard-only id space, worth choosing out loud rather than arriving at by omission. (c) The entry point pinned for llm-security in `measurement.runtimes` (`scanForInjection`, the injection scanner) does not reach carriers at all; carrier findings there come from the path-based unicode scanner instead. A carrier case therefore needs a per-scope entry point per runtime, which this manifest expresses nowhere — it pins one entry point per runtime for the whole corpus. Note that both runtimes already consume this file's tables: llm-security builds its zero-width, tag-range and BIDI sets from `codepoints/carriers.json` via `scanners/lib/codepoints.mjs`. The divergence is in what the finding is CALLED and where it can be observed, never in which code points are carriers. STATUS: put to both runtimes as a decision request on 2026-08-11 over coord, carrying exactly the three objections above and asking each the question only it can answer - the guard whether `lexicon:` on the tag path is intentional and whether `sanitize:` names a detector or an action, llm-security whether it adopts commons ids for carriers at all and which of not-implemented-per-runtime or mint-only-the-input-side it wants. Unanswered as of this version. A correction followed the same day, on this repository's own error: the request asserted that the corpus had no third verdict for an unreachable case, when section 1.1's `not-applicable` is exactly that and the registration mechanism above is what would take it away. Nothing is minted until both have ruled, and a further reason not to pre-mint is that publishing a single alias is itself the irreversible act — it moves another runtime's declared set by force of its own test suite."
