fix(review): convert refuses a partial or scoped Claude Security report; the stamp check is a trace (decisions 223, 224)
Two fail-closed checks in security-engine.mjs convert (decision 224), both
"not measured" (exit 2, the reason on stderr, nothing on stdout):
- the stamp's findings.total is not a non-negative integer, or the JSONL
  holds another number of records (a JSONL that lost the only BLOCKER line
  converted clean before; part 3 verifier, F3);
- the stamp's scope is not an empty list: a scan limited by --scope, an
  absent scope or a non-list scope (Claude Security 0.12.0 writes scope: []
  for an unscoped scan; F4).
The real Claude Security 0.12.0 probe report still converts: exit 0, one
BLOCKER, two below_threshold.

Decision 223, text only: the module header and SECURITY.md keep the
head/base check and say it is a trace, not a signature: code the reviewed
run executed can write a report folder of its own (convert reads the
matching one whose name sorts last) or delete the real one first (F2, a
known issue). /trekreview's not-measured list names the two new reasons.

The test helper writes the real stamp shape by default (findings.total =
the records in the JSONL written, scope: []). New tests for behaviour that
had none (F6): no fallback from an unverified newest match, a two-stamp
folder passed over, a symlinked stamp, JSONL or folder refused, a malformed
or absent scan_prefix, an unrecorded empty_diff or empty_scope.

# Security Policy — trekplan
## Reporting a vulnerability
Report privately to <security@fromaitochitta.com> — do not open a public
issue. There is no SLA — this is a solo-maintained plugin — but
acknowledged reports are usually triaged within 7 days.
If you already have an account on the Forgejo instance, you may instead
open a **private** issue on the repo, tagged `security`:
> https://git.fromaitochitta.com/open/voyage
## Supported versions
Only the **current minor version** receives security fixes. When v3.2.0
ships, v3.1.x stops receiving patches. Pin to the latest minor and
update on the next bump.
| Version | Supported |
|---------|-----------|
| 3.1.x | Yes |
| 3.0.x | No (upgrade to 3.1.x) |
| < 3.0 | No |
## Scope
The plugin's security posture covers:
### Plugin-owned hooks (`hooks/scripts/`)
| Hook | Trigger | Purpose |
|------|---------|---------|
| `pre-bash-executor.mjs` | `PreToolUse` for Bash | BLOCKs known-dangerous shell patterns; WARNs on suspicious ones; answers `ask` before merge into `main`, push, tag/publish and destructive git (P12); fails open on parse errors |
| `pre-write-executor.mjs` | `PreToolUse` for Write, Edit, NotebookEdit | BLOCKs writes to `.git/hooks/`, `~/.ssh/`, `.env`, and other sensitive paths, to Voyage's own state in the git directory (`voyage/`), and to test files a step has locked (P9); fails closed when it cannot read the target path or the lock, or cannot load the lock code |
| `pre-plan-gate.mjs` | `PreToolUse` for ExitPlanMode | Runs Voyage's plan gate on a Voyage plan (it carries `plan_version`) and denies one the gate refuses; asks with "not measured" when the gate cannot run; other plans pass (P3) |
| `post-approval-log.mjs` | `PostToolUse` for Bash, ExitPlanMode | Writes an approved merge/push to `main`, tag/publish, or Voyage plan to the approval log; says "not logged" when it cannot |
| `post-edit-check.mjs` | `PostToolUse` for Edit, Write | Runs the target repo's own formatter and linter on the edited file, check-only, while Voyage executes a plan there or the repo has switched it on (P7) |
| `stop-test-lock.mjs` | `Stop` | Refuses "done" while the session's step holds its test lock; lets the stop through when `stop_hook_active` is set (P9) |
| `pre-compact-flush.mjs` | `PreCompact` | Flushes `progress.json` from git history before compaction (P0 drift fix); read-only beyond `progress.json` |
| `session-title.mjs` *(planned, F9)* | `UserPromptSubmit` | Sets session title `voyage:<command>:<slug>` for telling parallel sessions apart |
All hooks are zero-dependency Node.js (`.mjs`) scripts. Most are designed
to **fail open** — a hook crash never blocks the user's work. The
exceptions are stated per hook above: the write guard fails closed when it
cannot read a path or a test lock, and the plan gate asks rather than
passes when it cannot run. No hook runs a model. Hooks never write to user
files outside their declared scope; the test lock and the post-edit log
live in the repository's git directory (`<git dir>/voyage/`), where they
cannot be committed.
### Precondition: mods
Voyage's guards are deterministic only when no installed mod handles `tool.check`.
A Claude Code mod that handles `tool.check` answers after the permission
rules and the `PreToolUse` hooks have decided, and its answer can replace
theirs: it can approve a call a plugin hook blocked or asked about, and
outside managed settings and Team/Enterprise plans it can approve a call a
deny rule refuses (code.claude.com/docs/en/permissions, § Extend
permissions with hooks). Voyage's hooks cannot tell whether such a mod is installed:
no hook input names the loaded mods. `/plugin` shows them to a person
(`N mods active · …`). Voyage itself ships no mods.
### Prompt-level denylist (`commands/trekexecute.md`)
The execute command embeds a denylist that takes effect even in a session
where a hook does not fire. This is layer 2 of the three-layer
defense-in-depth model (README, Security hardening) and protects against
plan-injected destructive commands.
### Validators (`lib/validators/*.mjs`)
Read-only. Never write to user files. Used both by hooks and by command
phases to detect malformed artifacts before they propagate.
### The review's security engine (`/trekreview`)
`/trekreview` hands security review of a delivery to one engine and never
reports a 0 it did not measure. Claude Security is recommended: Anthropic's
plugin, with a proprietary licence, so Voyage calls it by name
(`claude-security:claude-security`, `scan changes` only, after its own cost
question to the operator) and it is never a dependency in Voyage's manifest.
Without it, Claude Code's `/security-review` is used. With neither, security
is "not measured" and the verdict gate exits 2 (never green).
`lib/review/security-engine.mjs` chooses the engine and converts Claude
Security's report (`CLAUDE-SECURITY-<ts>/`, written by Claude Security in the
repo root behind its own `.gitignore`) as data: nothing in it is run or
followed, and a stamp counts only when it names exactly the reviewed head and
base. That check is a trace, not a signature (a known issue): code the
reviewed run executed can write a report folder of its own, which `convert`
reads when its name sorts last among the matching ones, or delete the real
report before `convert` reads it, and Voyage does not detect either. A
Claude Security finding blocks only at confidence `high`; the rest are listed
under Declined to Judge and keep the review from `ALLOW`. Neither engine
edits code.
## Out of scope
- **Opt-in upstream architect step.** Any external producer of
`architecture/overview.md` ships its own security posture. The
architecture-discovery validator in this plugin treats
`architecture/overview.md` as an external contract (drift-WARN, never
drift-FAIL).
- **LLM output content.** The plugin validates artifact *shape*, not
artifact *truthfulness*. A plan that passes `plan-validator --strict`
may still contain hallucinated file paths or unsafe commands; that is
why `pre-bash-executor` exists.
- **The Claude Code CLI itself.** Report Claude Code vulnerabilities to
Anthropic via https://github.com/anthropics/claude-code/issues.
## Hardening recommendations
For fork-ers handling untrusted task briefs or plans:
1. **Set `disableSkillShellExecution: true`** in `~/.claude/settings.json`
(CC v2.1.91+) to prevent Skills from invoking arbitrary shell.
2. **Run plan validation in `--strict` mode** before any execute:
```bash
node ${CLAUDE_PLUGIN_ROOT}/lib/validators/plan-validator.mjs --strict plan.md
```
3. **Review the plan-critic adversarial output** before approving plans
from external sources — semantic rubric (rule #7) catches deferred
decisions that an attacker could exploit.
4. **Pin a CC version floor.** v3.1.0 of this plugin assumes CC ≥
2.1.85 for the `if`-field on hooks; older CC silently ignores the
field, weakening the scoping.
## Past advisories
None as of v3.1.0. This section will list CVE-style entries if any are
discovered.
