ci(rhodibot): switch to the report-only canary (standards#759) - #97
Conversation
The RSR workflow here is the mutating variant: weekly cron, write permissions,
glob deletes, a bulk SPDX `sed` sweep the licence policy forbids, a
`${{ steps.fix.outputs.FIXES }}` injection sink, and a hardcoded personal
e-mail. Replaced with the canary the template ships: same schedule, same drift
signal, reports instead of mutating.
Refs hyperpolymath/standards#759 (option (a), canary propagation).
📝 SummarySummary by CodeRabbit
WalkthroughThe workflow now runs as a report-only RSR compliance canary. It performs no repository mutations, counts compliance drift, reports advisory warnings, writes a step summary, and fails when counted drift exists. ChangesRSR Compliance Canary
Priority: ⬇️ Low Estimated code review effort: 3 (Moderate) | ~20 minutes Change: Bug fix Merge Risk: 🟡 Moderate · up to The compliance canary can report a clean result for a prohibited AGPL-3.0-or-later header. Restore detection of that identifier before merging so license-policy drift is not silently missed. 🚥 Pre-merge checks | ✅ 4 | ❌ 1❌ Failed checks (1 warning)

Full details: Description checkExplanation The description explains the purpose, key changes, migration context, and unchanged action pins. It does not use the required template sections and omits the RSR quality checklist, testing details, and screenshots or terminal output. Resolution Rewrite the description using the repository template. Add Summary, Changes, RSR Quality Checklist, Testing, and Screenshots sections. Complete each applicable checklist item and document the tests that were run, or state why a section does not apply.

Do not exclude AGPL-3.0-or-later from drift.
Line 68 discards matching lines that contain AGPL-3.0-or-later. The repository policy prohibits AGPL-3.0 and requires MPL-2.0. This allows a prohibited SPDX header to pass without incrementing DRIFT.

‼️ IMPORTANT
Carefully review the code before committing. Ensure that it accurately replaces the highlighted code, contains no missing lines, and has no issues with indentation. Thoroughly test & benchmark the code to ensure it meets the requirements.

The RSR workflow in this repository is the mutating variant of rhodibot: it runs on a
weekly cron with
contents: write+pull-requests: write, deletes files by glob, andbulk-rewrites SPDX headers — which the standing licence policy forbids. It also interpolates
${{ steps.fix.outputs.FIXES }}into arun:block (repo-derived filenames, soattacker-influenceable) and hardcodes a personal e-mail address.
This replaces it with the report-only canary that the estate template already ships — the
already-approved design, not a new one. Same weekly schedule, same drift signal, no mutation:
it reports what an auto-fixer would have changed and fails the run when it finds drift,
rather than editing anything. Licence/SPDX drift is reported for manual, owner-only
correction; rhodibot must never edit a licence header.
Part of the
standards#759migration (canary propagation, option (a)). The workflow'suses:pins are unchanged, so
actions.lockis unaffected.
