🎯 Functional Correctness | 🟡 Minor | ⚡ Quick win
Add an acceptance test at the document work limit.
This test proves rejection at 100,100 merge operations. It does not prove that 100,000 operations remain accepted. An incorrect lower document limit would pass all current tests.

The boundary test is implemented locally and passes. Verification found that js-yaml 4.3.2 defaults maxTotalMergeKeys to 10,000, not 100,000 (confirmed in the installed package and upstream release commit 79ca68d90f333fbe6d9e42827527e62636200191). The repair proves acceptance at 10,000 and rejection at 10,100, corrects the original comment, and reduces the rejection fixture. All 47 focused tests pass; the smaller attack fixture remains accepted by 4.3.1 and rejected by 4.3.2. The repair will be published with the completed base refresh after validation.

@rsliter, thank you for the correction. The original comment used the wrong default limit.
The revised tests at 10,000 accepted merge keys and 10,100 rejected merge keys provide the required boundary coverage. The reduced rejection fixture is also appropriate. I will keep this thread open until the repair is published and can be verified.

Learning: In `src/lib/agent/manifest-readers.test.ts`, the `js-yaml` 4.3.2 default value of `maxTotalMergeKeys` is 10,000, not 100,000. Boundary regressions for `parseManifestRecord` must prove acceptance at 10,000 merge keys and rejection above that limit, such as at 10,100.

Recording Rebecca Sliter’s maintainer decision from the implementation task: allow the reviewed js-yaml-only package.json and package-lock.json differences while running the unchanged PR validators. This exception does not waive tests, CI, automated review, or managed-image evidence. The initial validation passed on 5cfcf02; the repaired commit is being validated before publication. |

Superseded by #11264, which merged the identical js-yaml 4.3.2 dependency and lockfile update plus the oversized merge-sequence regression. Closing this duplicate with maintainer approval. The additional normal-merge and document-work boundary regression coverage in this branch remains available for a separate follow-up under #11252. |

Outcome
Agent manifest parsing rejects YAML merge sequences with more than 100 sources and repeated empty sources that exceed the document work limit. Normal merges preserve defaults and explicit overrides.
Reason
js-yaml 4.3.1 is affected by GHSA-2883-xcg3-v3hh, a CPU-exhaustion advisory. The root production dependency must resolve a patched parser.
Related issues
Fixes #11252.

Verification
npm run test:projects:check: exact membership across seven projects.npm audit --omit=dev --audit-level=high: zero vulnerabilities.npm run validate:pr: passed on repaired commit d152482 against canonical base b117f41 with the approved dependency exception.Review notes
The complete upstream 4.3.1-to-4.3.2 comparison has two commits and four changed paths. Published gitHead 79ca68d90f333fbe6d9e42827527e62636200191 matches the reviewed release. The parser adds a 100-source sequence limit and charges each source mapping toward document work. Public APIs and the argparse dependency remain unchanged. Both NemoClaw js-yaml consumers use the default loader and require no API migration.
Rebecca approved the manifest/lockfile validation exception. Her repository role was verified as maintain. The exception permits the reviewed dependency difference with unchanged PR validators. It does not waive CI, automated review, or image evidence.
npm run review:localfailed during gateway configuration before evaluating the candidate: OpenShell connection refused. Cleanup also reported an EACCES error for its temporary review context. All nine Advisor specialist writeups for initial commit 5cfcf02 were read; they requested no changes. CodeRabbit requested a document-limit acceptance test. The repair adds it using the upstream default of 10,000, corrects the prior test comment, and reduces the rejection fixture. Fresh review of the repaired commit remains pending.The temporary advisory exception PR #11254 was closed without merging. No exception is present in the canonical base. Managed-image build verification will follow merge. The manual qualification run 34305697460 passed candidate selection but could not obtain the required base publication. The base publication 34303823584 fails its CLI production audit on GHSA-2883-xcg3-v3hh in js-yaml 4.3.1, the defect this PR fixes. This PR changes no managed-image build inputs. Its trusted CI production audit passes. After merge, run image publication from the fixing commit and retain the audit/build evidence; do not report image qualification as passed before then.
