ci(rhodibot): switch to the report-only canary (standards#759) - #84
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 Rhodibot workflow now runs as a read-only compliance canary. It detects drift, reports advisory warnings, fails when drift exists, and no longer changes files or creates pull requests. ChangesRhodibot compliance canary
Priority: ⬇️ Low Estimated code review effort: 3 (Moderate) | ~20 minutes Change: Bug fix Merge Risk: 🟡 Moderate · up to The canary can execute a changed external action version and can falsely report SPDX compliance for certain large dotfiles. Pin checkout to the approved commit and make the SPDX check consume its full input before merging. 🚥 Pre-merge checks | ✅ 4 | ❌ 1❌ Failed checks (1 warning)
✅ Passed checks (4 passed)

- Line 37: Update the actions/checkout reference in the workflow to the verified
immutable SHA for version v7.0.1, retaining the version comment and leaving the
surrounding workflow unchanged.
- Around line 32-94: Update the SPDX drift condition in the dotfile loop to use
a single awk-based predicate, or another approach that consumes the complete
filtered stream, instead of the grep pipeline ending with grep -q. Preserve
detection of AGPL-3.0 lines excluding AGPL-3.0-or-later and ensure matching
files still call warn and increment DRIFT under pipefail.

Avoid early termination in the SPDX drift check. When a checked dotfile contains enough AGPL-3.0 lines that do not contain AGPL-3.0-or-later, grep -q . can close the pipe early. An upstream grep can then exit with SIGPIPE. With pipefail, the if condition becomes false, so warn does not increment DRIFT. The workflow can report a clean canary and exit 0 despite SPDX drift.
Use one awk condition, or otherwise consume the complete filtered stream.

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.
