docs(ci): record that the advisory gate is time-dependent

[murdore]

Summary

Documents in CLAUDE.md that the 🔒 Security & Environment Validation CI gate (backed by scripts/security-check.ts, which runs pnpm audit --prod --json live) is time-dependent — a green run expires, and a red gate is rarely caused by your own diff.

Covers:

• A PR's green expires: two PRs with identical dependency trees passed at 20:05 UTC and failed at 02:03 UTC once new advisories published; the first looked green/mergeable and was neither.
• A red gate usually is not yours: a new advisory turns test red on every open PR at once (including ones touching no manifest). The check's own output appends the "behind origin/release" / "may not originate in your changes" note.
• A copy-paste-able reproduction command that audits the exact tip CI ran: origin/release in a throwaway worktree (unique mktemp path, cleaned up even on failure) with --frozen-lockfile to match CI's install.
• Fixing it: raise the floor and move the pnpm.overrides band with it. Warns against a lockfile-only bump (greens CI but not downstream consumers) and a raised floor with a stale override band (can pin transitive consumers inside the new advisory's range). The js-yaml example is framed as history, anchored on the permanent GHSA ranges, with the GraphQL query to enumerate every range on a record.

Documentation-only change — single file, no code or config drift.

Summary by CodeRabbit

🤖 Automated validation by NeuroLink Single Commit Enforcement

[Tara-ag]

Reviewed the documentation addition against the actual code and CI config. Verified every technical claim in the section.

[Tara-ag]

APPROVE

Documentation-only change to CLAUDE.md; the section is accurate and well-scoped. I verified the claims against the checkout and CI, not just the prose.

Severity	Location	Finding
MINOR	CLAUDE.md:557	git checkout release uses a possibly-stale local ref and git stash mutates the working tree — prefer origin/release (fetched first) for a read-only reproduction

What I checked (all verified against source):

• security-check.ts runs pnpm audit --prod --json live, un-pinned — matches the "green run expires" claim.
• The security step sits in test-shards (validate) (matrix.group == 'validate' runs validate:all), which feeds the required test job (needs: [test-shards]) — matches the CI attribution claim.
• The script's failing output appends the "N commit(s) behind origin/release" / "may not originate in your changes" note — matches the section's description of the check's own output.
• js-yaml overrides read >=3.14.2 / >=4.1.1, both inside the described GHSA-2883-xcg3-v3hh ranges — internally consistent with package.json's pnpm.overrides.
• fast-xml-parser (floor ^5.7.0, override band >=5.0.0 <5.7.0 → >=5.7.0) and undici (floor >=7.24.0 <8.0.0 with matching bands) are valid "band kept in step with floor" examples.
• The lockfile-only-bump / stale-override-band traps match how consumers resolve from package.json (the lockfile is not in files/).

Checked clean: single-commit policy (verified by CI), Conventional Commit docs(ci): with scope, no lockfile/config drift.

No blockers. The one MINOR is a copy-paste-able command in an authoritative doc whose entire purpose is preventing misdiagnosis, so it is worth tightening.

[Tara-ag]

Approving — documentation-only change; every technical claim verified against scripts/security-check.ts, ci.yml, package.json overrides, and the check's own output. One MINOR inline suggestion on the repro command.

[Tara-ag]

APPROVE — documentation-only change; every technical claim in the new section verifies against the actual code and CI config, with one MINOR, non-blocking suggestion.

Severity	Location	Description
MINOR	CLAUDE.md:557-559	Repro command uses local release ref and git stash; prefer origin/release via a throwaway worktree

Verified clean:

• scripts/security-check.ts runs pnpm audit --prod --json live, un-pinned — "a green run expires" is accurate.
• .github/workflows/ci.yml — the 🔒 Security & Environment Validation step runs in test-shards (validate) feeding the required test check via needs:.
• The check's own output appends the "behind origin/release" / "may not originate in your changes" note as claimed.
• package.json js-yaml override bands (>=3.14.2 / >=4.1.1) are indeed inside the GHSA-2883-xcg3-v3hh vulnerable ranges; fast-xml-parser / undici are genuine band-kept-in-step examples.
• Downstream-consumer resolution from package.json (lockfile not shipped) makes the "lockfile-only bump is not a fix" trap accurate.

No CRITICAL / MAJOR findings. No secrets, no code changes, no backward-compatibility impact (rule 5 not applicable — docs only).

[Tara-ag]

Re-review pass (2026-09-09) — APPROVE. (Recurring review; the PR head is unchanged at 209893f4 from the commit both prior summaries approved.)

What's unchanged and re-verified this pass:

• Docs-only change to CLAUDE.md: scripts/security-check.ts (graph node scripts/security-check.ts#2446) with its commitsBehindRelease function corroborates the section's claims — including the origin/release comparison that the one open finding hinges on.
• Code-review-graph: risk 0.00, 0 changed functions, 0 affected flows → rule 5 (backward compat) not applicable; no secrets, no code/config change.

Open finding (kept, not reposted):

• MINOR — CLAUDE.md:557-559: repro command still uses the possibly-stale local release ref and tree-mutating git stash. No author reply or fix since the prior pass, so the finding remains open on its existing thread rather than being reintroduced.

No new findings. One open MINOR; everything else clean.

[Tara-ag]

Documentation-only change; the section's core claims verify against scripts/security-check.ts, ci.yml, and package.json. Two MINOR accuracy notes (js-yaml example is now stale; repro could use --frozen-lockfile to match CI). The prior repro-command finding is resolved by the author's origin/release worktree fix.

[Tara-ag]

APPROVE (re-review, head 24731cced)

Documentation-only change to CLAUDE.md. The section's technical claims verify against the checkout — scripts/security-check.ts runs pnpm audit --prod --json live and appends the "behind origin/release / may not originate in your changes" note; the 🔒 Security & Environment Validation step sits in test-shards (validate) feeding the required test job (needs: [test-shards]); package.json files excludes the lockfile, so consumers resolve from manifests. Two new MINOR accuracy notes:

Severity	Location	Finding
resolved	CLAUDE.md:558-559	Prior repro-command finding — author's origin/release throwaway-worktree fix (with pnpm install) genuinely addresses the stale-local-ref / mutating-tree concern; thread resolved.
MINOR	CLAUDE.md:584	js-yaml example is stale: base-tip overrides now read >=3.15.2 / >=4.3.2 (in step with the band); the doc's >=3.14.2 / >=4.1.1 numbers no longer match package.json. Anchor it in the incident or update it.
MINOR	CLAUDE.md:559	Repro could install with --frozen-lockfile, matching CI, so the audited tree can't differ from CI's.

Verified clean: single-commit policy + Conventional Commit docs(ci): (both confirmed by CI); no lockfile/config/code drift (1 file, +68); fast-xml-parser (^5.7.0 floor, band >=5.0.0 <5.7.0 → >=5.7.0) and undici (>=7.24.0 <8.0.0 floor, matching bands) are genuine in-step-band examples; the gh api graphql securityVulnerabilities query shape is valid. Rule 5 (backward compat) and the security bar are not applicable — docs only.

No CRITICAL / MAJOR findings; the two MINORs are non-blocking.

[Tara-ag]

APPROVE — documentation-only change. The two prior MINORs (repro command) are fixed by the author's 24731cced (worktree against origin/release, read-only) — resolved those threads. Two new non-blocking MINORs on the current head: make the repro use --frozen-lockfile to match CI, and the quoted js-yaml override values are stale vs. the committed package.json.

[Tara-ag]

APPROVE

Documentation-only change to CLAUDE.md (advisory-gate section). All technical claims verify against scripts/security-check.ts, .github/workflows/ci.yml, and package.json. The single-commit / Conventional Commit policy is enforced by CI.

Severity	Location	Finding	Status
MINOR	CLAUDE.md:557-559	Repro used a stale local release ref + tree-mutating git stash instead of origin/release	FIXED by author (24731cced, throwaway worktree) — threads resolved
MINOR	CLAUDE.md:558	Repro runs pnpm install while CI uses --frozen-lockfile; use frozen to match CI exactly	NEW — non-blocking
MINOR	CLAUDE.md:583	Quoted js-yaml override values (>=3.14.2 / >=4.1.1) are stale vs committed package.json (>=3.15.2 / >=4.3.2)	NEW — non-blocking

Verified clean:

• scripts/security-check.ts runs pnpm audit --prod --json live, un-pinned → "a green run expires" is accurate; its failing output appends the "N commit(s) behind origin/release / may not originate in your changes" note as claimed.
• The 🔒 Security & Environment Validation step lives in test-shards (validate) feeding the required test check via needs: (CI attribution claim correct).
• Downstream-consumer resolution from package.json (lockfile not in files/) makes the "lockfile-only bump is not a fix" trap accurate.
• fast-xml-parser / undici override bands are genuine band-kept-in-step-with-floor examples.
• No secrets (placeholder references only), no code/config change, no backward-compat impact (rule 5 N/A — docs only).

No CRITICAL / MAJOR findings.

[Tara-ag]

APPROVE (re-review, head 79d5c3d41)

Documentation-only change to CLAUDE.md (1 file, +83); every technical claim in the new advisory-gate section verifies against the checkout. Both MINORs left open on the last pass are now adequately fixed and their threads resolved.

Severity	Location	Finding	Status
MINOR	CLAUDE.md:558-559	Repro used a possibly-stale local release ref + tree-mutating git stash	FIXED by author (worktree on origin/release, --frozen-lockfile) — thread resolved
MINOR	CLAUDE.md:583	Quoted js-yaml overrides (>=3.14.2 / >=4.1.1) were stale vs committed package.json	FIXED by author — example now explicitly historical and matches the current >=3.15.2 / >=4.3.2 values — thread resolved

Re-verified against source (head + origin/release @ 3fdf80f1d):

• scripts/security-check.ts runs pnpm audit --prod --json live, un-pinned → "a green run expires" is accurate; its failing output appends the "N commit(s) behind origin/release / may not originate in your changes" note via commitsBehindRelease.
• The 🔒 Security & Environment Validation step lives in test-shards (validate) (matrix.group == 'validate' → pnpm run validate:all), feeding the required test job via needs: [test-shards] (ci.yml) — the CI-attribution claim holds.
• CI installs with pnpm install --frozen-lockfile throughout, so the documented repro now matches CI exactly.
• package.json js-yaml overrides at the base tip read >=4.3.2 / >=3.15.2 — on the band edges, exactly as the doc states; the GHSA band facts (>=3.0.0 <3.15.2, >=4.0.0 <4.3.2) are permanent. fast-xml-parser (^5.7.0 floor, band >=5.0.0 <5.7.0 → >=5.7.0) and undici (>=7.24.0 <8.0.0 floor, matching bands) are genuine in-step-band examples.
• The gh api graphql securityVulnerabilities query shape (arg first, ecosystem, package; nodes{advisory{ghsaId} vulnerableVersionRange firstPatchedVersion{identifier}}) is valid GitHub GraphQL.
• package.json files excludes pnpm-lock.yaml, so downstream consumers resolve from package.json — the "lockfile-only bump is not a fix" trap is real.

Checked clean: single-commit policy + Conventional Commit docs(ci): (both confirmed by CI); no lockfile/config/code drift; rule 5 (backward compat) and the security bar not applicable — docs only, no secrets, no executable change.

No CRITICAL / MAJOR findings. The two MINORs were correctly closed by the author; nothing new remains.

[Tara-ag]

APPROVE — documentation-only change to CLAUDE.md. All review findings are resolved on the current head 79d5c3d41:

• Repro command now installs with --frozen-lockfile (matches CI) — verified in the diff.
• js-yaml example is now explicitly historical with current values >=3.15.2 / >=4.3.2 — verified in the diff, matching the committed package.json.

Verified clean: scripts/security-check.ts runs pnpm audit --prod --json live; the security step sits in test-shards (validate) feeding the required test check; package.json files excludes the lockfile; CONVENTIONAL_COMMIT + single-commit enforced by CI. No code/config change, no backward-compat impact (rule 5 N/A — docs only).

The documented repro, run verbatim

This PR publishes a command and argues it should be run before investigating a red advisory gate. Here is that command actually executing, copied from the section as written — unchanged path, unchanged flags.

Every step the section promises does what it says: the throwaway worktree lands on origin/release rather than a stale local ref, --frozen-lockfile installs the tree CI would audit, and the check runs to a verdict. Twenty-two seconds end to end after the fetch.

What the run also tells us right now

The gate is green on origin/release at 10fa282f2 as of 2026-09-11T23:58Z, with 18 open production advisories, all explicitly accepted. That is worth recording precisely because of this PR's own argument: it is a fact with a timestamp, not a property of the tree. It says nothing about tomorrow, and per the section it should be re-run immediately before any merge rather than cited later.

It also demonstrates the second claim — "a red gate usually is not yours". The 18 advisories are all repo-wide and transitive (uuid, form-data, adm-zip, sharp, find-my-way, undici, ip-address, image-size, @opentelemetry/core), none introduced by any open PR. Had any of them lacked an accepted-risk entry, every open PR would have gone red at once while touching nothing relevant.

One small note on the command itself, since I ran it rather than read it: git worktree add /tmp/nl-audit fails on a second run unless the previous worktree is removed, because the path is fixed. Worth a git worktree remove /tmp/nl-audit in the section, or the reader's second attempt gives a confusing "already exists" rather than an audit. I removed mine afterwards.

APPROVE — documentation-only change to CLAUDE.md. All prior MINOR findings (repro stale-ref, frozen-lockfile, js-yaml override values) were adequately fixed and resolved by the author. One new non-blocking MINOR on the current head — the repro's fixed /tmp/nl-audit worktree path fails on a second run unless the prior worktree is removed (as the author's own verified run at 2026-09-11T23:58Z noted).

[Tara-ag]

APPROVE (re-review, head 043001fd)

Documentation-only change to CLAUDE.md — the advisory-gate section. All previously-raised MINOR findings are resolved by the author's fixes across 24731cced / 79d5c3d41 (repro pinned to origin/release via throwaway worktree, --frozen-lockfile to match CI, js-yaml example made explicitly historical with values matching package.json). One new non-blocking MINOR remains, first surfaced by the author's own verified run of the documented command.

Severity	Location	Finding	Status
MINOR	CLAUDE.md:580	Repro uses a fixed /tmp/nl-audit worktree path; a second run fails with "already exists" unless the prior worktree is removed. The section promises a "throwaway" worktree but the command never removes it. Author flagged this in the PR thread (2026-09-11T23:58Z) — still unfixed.	NEW — non-blocking

Re-verified against source at head 043001fd:

• package.json overrides confirm the docs' claims: js-yaml@>=4.0.0 <4.3.2 → >=4.3.2, js-yaml@>=3.0.0 <3.15.2 → >=3.15.2 (on the GHSA-2883-xcg3-v3hh band edges), fast-xml-parser@>=5.0.0 <5.7.0 → >=5.7.0, undici@>=7.0.0 <7.24.0 → >=7.24.0 <8.0.0 — genuine band-kept-in-step-with-floor examples. files excludes pnpm-lock.yaml, so the "lockfile-only bump is not a fix" trap is accurate.
• validate:all → validate:security → scripts/security-check.ts; the 🔒 Security & Environment Validation step sits in test-shards (validate) feeding the required test check via needs: — CI attribution correct.
• scripts/security-check.ts runs pnpm audit --prod --json live, un-pinned → "a green run expires" is accurate; failing output appends the "behind origin/release / may not originate in your changes" note.
• Graph: risk 0.00, 0 changed functions, 0 affected flows → rule 5 (backward compat) and the security bar not applicable — docs only, no secrets, no code/config change.

Single-commit policy + Conventional Commit docs(ci): enforced by CI. No CRITICAL / MAJOR findings. The one MINOR is a copy-paste-able command in an authoritative doc whose exact purpose is preventing misdiagnosis — worth the one-line fix the author already contemplated.

[Tara-ag]

APPROVE — documentation-only change to CLAUDE.md. All prior findings are resolved on the current head. One new non-blocking MINOR: the repro worktree path /tmp/nl-audit is fixed, so a second run fails with "already exists" — recommend removing it before re-running.

APPROVE (re-review, head 218533f3)

Documentation-only change to CLAUDE.md — the advisory-gate section. The previously-open finding is now fixed, and one new non-blocking MINOR refinement remains.

Severity	Location	Finding	Status
MINOR	CLAUDE.md:586-590	Repro used a fixed /tmp/nl-audit worktree path; a second run failed with "already exists" and nothing removed the worktree	FIXED by author at 218533f3 — rewritten with mktemp -d unique path + git worktree remove/rm -rf outside the && chain. Thread yama:repro-worktree-path-collision resolved.
MINOR	CLAUDE.md:590	On a git fetch failure the chain-skips the worktree add, so the post-chain git worktree remove --force "$audit_dir" prints a spurious fatal: … not a working tree on the very failure path	NEW — non-blocking; suggest 2>/dev/null || true on the remove

Re-verified against head 218533f3:

• scripts/security-check.ts runs pnpm audit --prod --json live, un-pinned (verified in source) — "a green run expires" is accurate; the failing output appends the "N commit(s) behind origin/release … may not originate in your changes" note via commitsBehindRelease/releaseAcceptsPackage/releaseOverridesPackage.
• The 🔒 Security & Environment Validation step sits in test-shards (validate) → validate:all → validate:security, feeding the required test check (needs:).
• The reproduced command now installs with --frozen-lockfile (matches CI) and audits origin/release via a throwaway worktree — author's own verbatim run confirms it lands and gives a verdict in ~22s.
• package.json overrides at head: js-yaml@>=4.0.0 <4.3.2 → >=4.3.2, js-yaml@>=3.0.0 <3.15.2 → >=3.15.2 (on the GHSA-2883-xcg3-v3hh band edges), fast-xml-parser@>=5.0.0 <5.7.0 → >=5.7.0, undici@>=7.0.0 <7.24.0 → >=7.24.0 <8.0.0 — the worked "band kept in step with its floor" examples; files excludes pnpm-lock.yaml, so the lockfile-only-bump trap is real.
• Single-commit policy + Conventional Commit docs(ci): enforced by CI (bot confirmed).

Rule 5 (backward compat) and the security bar N/A — docs only, no code/config change, no secrets. No CRITICAL / MAJOR findings. The prior canonical summary is comment #5648238501; this pass confirms that finding is now closed and adds the one refinement above.

[Tara-ag]

APPROVE — documentation-only change to CLAUDE.md. All previously-raised findings are fixed and resolved at head 218533f3 (stale-ref, --frozen-lockfile, js-yaml values, and the fixed-worktree-path collision — the repro now uses a unique mktemp path with cleanup outside the && chain). One new non-blocking MINOR on the trailing cleanup line.

[Tara-ag]

APPROVE (head 218533f3)

Documentation-only change to CLAUDE.md (1 file, +90). This is the canonical summary for the current head; prior summaries at earlier heads are superseded by it.

Severity	Location	Finding	Status
resolved	CLAUDE.md:586-589	Repro used a fixed /tmp/nl-audit worktree path that failed on a second run and never cleaned up	FIXED at 218533f3 — unique mktemp -d path, git worktree remove/rm -rf moved outside the && chain so a failed audit still cleans up
MINOR	CLAUDE.md:589	On git fetch failure the chain skips the worktree add, so the trailing git worktree remove prints a spurious fatal: … not a working tree on the failure path	NEW — suppress with 2>/dev/null (suggestion posted)

Verified clean against source:

• scripts/security-check.ts runs pnpm audit --prod --json live, un-pinned → "a green run expires" is accurate; failing output appends the "N commit(s) behind origin/release / may not originate in your changes" note.
• The 🔒 Security & Environment Validation step sits in test-shards (validate) feeding the required test job via needs: — CI attribution correct.
• Repro now pins origin/release in a throwaway worktree and installs with --frozen-lockfile (matching every CI install), so the audited tree equals CI's.
• package.json overrides match the docs' now-explicitly-historical js-yaml example; fast-xml-parser / undici are genuine band-kept-in-step-with-floor examples; files excludes the lockfile so the "lockfile-only bump is not a fix" trap is accurate.
• Prior findings all resolved at head: stale-local-release-ref + git stash (fixed in 24731cced), --frozen-lockfile (fixed in 79d5c3d41), js-yaml stale values (fixed in 79d5c3d41 — example now historical).

No CRITICAL / MAJOR findings. Rule 5 (backward compat) and the security bar not applicable — docs only, no secrets, no code/config change. Review state matches the verdict: approving review on this head.

APPROVE (head 772fdcb8d)

Documentation-only change to CLAUDE.md (1 file, +102). This is the canonical summary for the current head; earlier summary comments are superseded by it.

Severity	Location	Finding	Status
resolved	CLAUDE.md:715-721	Stale release ref + git stash; pnpm install vs CI's --frozen-lockfile; stale js-yaml override values; fixed /tmp/nl-audit path; spurious fatal: on fetch-failure cleanup; exit status masked by rm -rf	FIXED by author across 24731cced/79d5c3d41/218533f3/dac178f6/772fdcb8d — all threads resolved

The last open finding (yama:repro-exit-status-masked) is fixed at 772fdcb8d: audit_status=$? is captured before cleanup and ( exit "$audit_status" ) restores the audit's status to $? for a scripted caller without closing the interactive shell (verified in the diff). Nothing new remains.

Verified clean against source at head 772fdcb8d:

• scripts/security-check.ts runs pnpm audit --prod --json live, un-pinned → "a green run expires" is accurate; failing output appends the "N commit(s) behind origin/release / may not originate in your changes" note.
• The 🔒 Security & Environment Validation step sits in test-shards (validate) feeding the required test job via needs: — CI attribution correct.
• Repro pins origin/release in a unique mktemp -d throwaway worktree, installs with --frozen-lockfile (matches every CI install), guarded cleanup outside the && chain.
• package.json js-yaml overrides (>=3.0.0 <3.15.2 → >=3.15.2, >=4.0.0 <4.3.2 → >=4.3.2) sit on the GHSA-2883-xcg3-v3hh band edges as the doc states; fast-xml-parser / undici are genuine band-kept-in-step examples; files excludes the lockfile so the lockfile-only-bump trap is real; the gh api graphql securityVulnerabilities query shape is valid.

Checked clean: single-commit policy + Conventional Commit docs(ci): (both confirmed by CI); no code/config/lockfile drift; no secrets; rule 5 (backward compat) and the security bar not applicable — docs only.

No CRITICAL / MAJOR findings. An approving review is in place on the current head, matching the verdict.

Note on dedup: due to the absence of a delete-comment primitive in the tooling used here, the historical per-pass summary comments at earlier heads (#5598301229 … #5648380402) cannot be removed, but each already marks itself superseded by this summary and describes an earlier head — this comment is the single current summary.

APPROVE at head dac178f6 — documentation-only change to CLAUDE.md.

The previously-open finding (yama:repro-cleanup-spurious-fatal: cleanup printed a spurious fatal: on the fetch-failure path) is now resolved by the author: the cleanup is guarded with [ -d "$audit_dir" ] && git worktree remove --force "$audit_dir", so nothing is removed (and no fatal: noise emitted) when the worktree was never created. Thread resolved.

All findings from prior passes are fixed and resolved at this head:

• stale local release ref + git stash → origin/release throwaway worktree
• --frozen-lockfile to match CI
• js-yaml example made explicitly historical with current values
• fixed /tmp/nl-audit path → unique mktemp directory with cleanup

Verified against source: scripts/security-check.ts runs pnpm audit --prod --json live; the security step lives in test-shards (validate) feeding the required test check; package.json overrides match the doc; files excludes the lockfile. No CRITICAL/MAJOR findings. Rule 5 (backward compat) and the security bar not applicable — docs only, no code/config change, no secrets.

Documentation-only review — the advisory-gate section in CLAUDE.md. One new non-blocking MINOR; all prior findings confirmed resolved at this head.

APPROVE at head 4d60d2f — documentation-only change to CLAUDE.md.

All prior findings are resolved at this head. One new non-blocking MINOR inline (yama:repro-exit-code-0): the block's exit status is rm -rf's (0), so a scripted run would report success on a red audit — worth the exit-code capture for a command whose whole purpose is a trustable verdict.

No CRITICAL / MAJOR findings. Rule 5 (backward compat) and the security bar not applicable — docs only, no code/config change, no secrets.

- Around line 712-715: Update the audit command chain before audit_status so
failures remain cleanup-safe when Bash set -e is enabled. Wrap the git fetch,
git worktree add, and security-check chain in an if/else construct, assigning
audit_status for both success and failure paths, while preserving the existing
commands and subsequent cleanup.

APPROVE at head 772fdcb8d — documentation-only change to CLAUDE.md.

The last open finding (yama:repro-exit-status-masked: the block's exit status was rm -rf's 0, masking a red audit) is now fixed by the author in 772fdcb8d: audit_status=$? is captured before cleanup, and ( exit "$audit_status" ) restores the audit's status to $? for a scripted caller without closing the interactive shell it was pasted into. Verified in the diff: audit_status=$? → guarded [ -d ] remove → rm -rf → ( exit "$audit_status" ).

All findings across prior passes are resolved at this head:

• stale local release ref + git stash → origin/release throwaway worktree (24731cced)
• --frozen-lockfile to match CI (79d5c3d41)
• js-yaml example made explicitly historical with values matching package.json (79d5c3d41)
• fixed /tmp/nl-audit path → unique mktemp -d with cleanup outside the && chain (218533f3)
• spurious fatal: on fetch-failure path → [ -d ] guard (dac178f6)
• exit-status masked by cleanup → audit_status + subshell exit (772fdcb8d)

Verified against source: scripts/security-check.ts runs pnpm audit --prod --json live; the 🔒 Security & Environment Validation step lives in test-shards (validate) feeding the required test check; package.json js-yaml override bands sit on the GHSA-2883-xcg3-v3hh edges as the doc states; files excludes the lockfile so the lockfile-only-bump trap is accurate. No CRITICAL / MAJOR findings. Rule 5 (backward compat) and the security bar not applicable — docs only, no code/config change, no secrets.
