+# Coverage Floor
+
+CI enforces three coverage gates on `workspace-server` (Go). All defined in
+`.github/workflows/ci.yml` → `platform-build` job.
+
+## Current floors (2026-04-23)
+
+| Gate | Threshold | What fails |
+|---|---|---|
+| **Total floor** | `25%` | `go tool cover -func` reports total below floor |
+| **Critical-path per-file floor** | `10%` | Any non-test source file in a security-critical path with coverage ≤10% |
+| **Per-file report** | advisory | Printed in CI log, sorted worst-first, does not fail |
+
+Total floor starts at 25% (unchanged from pre-#1823 to keep this PR strictly
+additive). The new protection is the critical-path per-file floor, which
+directly closes the gap that prompted the issue. Ratchet plan below begins
+the month after to let the team first observe the gate in action.
+
+## Security-critical paths (Gate 2)
+
+Changes to these paths have historically introduced security issues (CWE-22,
+CWE-78, KI-005, SSRF) or billing/auth risk. Coverage must not drop to zero.
+
+- `internal/handlers/tokens*`
+- `internal/handlers/workspace_provision*`
+- `internal/handlers/a2a_proxy*`
+- `internal/handlers/registry*`
+- `internal/handlers/secrets*`
+- `internal/middleware/wsauth*`
+- `internal/crypto*`
+
+## Ratchet plan
+
+Floor ratchets upward on a fixed cadence. Any ratchet is a PR — reviewable,
+reversible, and creates history. The table below is the intended schedule.
+
+| Date | Total floor | Critical-path floor | Notes |
+|---|---|---|---|
+| 2026-04-23 | 25% | 10% | Initial gate (this file). |
+| 2026-05-23 | 30% | 20% | First ratchet |
+| 2026-06-23 | 40% | 30% | |
+| 2026-07-23 | 50% | 40% | |
+| 2026-08-23 | 55% | 50% | |
+| 2026-09-23 | 60% | 60% | |
+| 2026-10-23 | 70% | 70% | Target steady-state |
+
+The target end-state matches the per-role QA prompts which specify
+"coverage >80% on changed files". CI enforces the floor; reviewers still
+enforce the per-PR bar.
+
+## Exceptions
+
+If a critical-path file genuinely cannot have coverage above the floor (e.g.
+thin wrapper around a third-party SDK with no branches to test), add an entry
+here with:
+
+1. **File**: `internal/handlers/example.go`
+2. **Reason**: Why coverage can't hit the floor
+3. **Tracking issue**: GitHub issue for the real fix
+4. **Expiry**: 14 days from entry date; after expiry either coverage is fixed
+   or the issue is closed as "accepted technical debt"
+
+### Active exceptions
+
+*(none — add here if you need to land code that legitimately can't clear the floor)*
+
+## Why this gate exists
+
+Issue #1823: an external audit found critical files at 0% coverage despite
+test files existing with hundreds of lines. The existing CI step measured
+coverage but didn't enforce a meaningful threshold. Any file could go from
+80% → 0% and CI stayed green, because the single gate (total ≥25%) ignored
+per-file distribution.
+
+This gate makes "no untested critical paths merged" a mechanical property of
+the CI, not a behavioural property of QA agents or individual reviewers —
+which is the only way to make it survive fleet outages, agent rotations, or
+QA process changes.
