Aligns check ID handling across @sverka/checks and @sverka/policy, and adds Definition Graph verification to catch policy misconfigurations. Previously evaluation required exact checkId matches and verification could throw; now bare and checks/-prefixed IDs compare equal, rule-qualified findings match, and verification returns errors instead of throwing.
Changes
@sverka/policy
Add verifyPolicyAgainstGraph(policy, graph) → { valid, unknownCheckIds, errors? }. Validates failOn[].checkIds against Definition Graph checks/* steps, normalizes checks/, deduplicates unknowns, and reports structural errors; export verifyPolicyAgainstGraph and PolicyVerification. New dependency on @sverka/core.
evaluatePolicy normalizes checks/, accepts string or array checkIds, treats null/undefined as no filter, and matches rule-qualified finding IDs (<checkId>:<ruleId>).
@sverka/checks: extractFindings strips the checks/ prefix so findings use canonical bare IDs.
No migration required. Policies may match more findings due to normalization and rule-qualified matching; run verifyPolicyAgainstGraph before evaluation.
Written for commit b7f6e2e. Summary will update on new commits.
CodeAnt-AI Description
Align policy check IDs with Definition Graph steps and extracted findings
What Changed
Policies can be checked against the Definition Graph to report unknown check IDs without throwing errors
Bare IDs and checks/-prefixed IDs are treated as equivalent during verification and policy evaluation
Policy filters now match findings qualified with rule IDs, such as check-a:rule-1
Extracted SARIF findings use canonical check IDs without the checks/ prefix
Policy behavior and check ID matching rules are documented and exposed through the public API
Impact
✅ Clearer policy configuration errors ✅ Consistent check matching across engine findings ✅ Fewer false policy passes or failures

Added policy verification against the Definition Graph.
Reports whether all policy check IDs are valid and lists unknown IDs without throwing errors.
Exposed the verification function and result type through the public policy API.
Bug Fixes
Detects invalid, missing, and duplicate check ID references across policy rules.
Documentation
Updated policy and findings specifications with verification behavior, scope, and test coverage.
Walkthrough
The policy package now verifies failOn[].checkIds against Definition Graph pipeline steps. It exposes the verification API and result type, adds coverage for verification behavior and exports, and activates the findings and policy specifications.
Changes
Policy graph verification
Layer / File(s)
Summary
Verification API and specification packages/policy/package.json, packages/policy/src/verify.ts, packages/policy/src/index.ts, specs/16-policy/spec.md
The package adds verifyPolicyAgainstGraph and PolicyVerification. The verifier reports unknown check IDs without throwing. The API exports and policy specification define the new contract.
Verification and public API tests packages/policy/src/__tests__/*
Tests cover matching, unknown, duplicate, missing, default, and empty-graph check IDs. Public API tests cover the runtime function export and compile-time result type.
The specification defines the active carry-over scope for SARIF processing, fingerprints, baselines, suppressions, unchanged interfaces, exclusions, and regression and integration tests.
The change is mergeable with owner follow-up to correct the documented baseline comparison signature and clarify which graph steps may satisfy policy check IDs; otherwise, consumers could rely on an inaccurate API contract or inconsistent validation scope.

✅ No security concerns
All checks pass. No blocking issues found.
You can now have the agent implement changes and create commits directly on your pull request's source branch. Simply comment with /q followed by your request in natural language to ask the agent to make changes.
The change introduces a policy correctness regression: an explicitly present empty checkIds array now applies no filter and can trigger on all findings, whereas the prior behavior matched none. CI also did not run for this non-trivial policy change.
• Add verifyPolicyAgainstGraph to validate policy checkIds against Definition Graph step IDs.
• Expose PolicyVerification in the public API and add targeted verification tests.
• Activate Specs 15/16 with carry-over verification notes and updated test plans.

High-Level Assessment
The following are alternative approaches to this PR:
1. Fold verification into evaluatePolicy (optional graph param)
➕ Single entrypoint for evaluation + verification
➕ Callers can’t forget to validate checkIds
➖ API complexity (optional dependency on @sverka/core in evaluation path)
➖ Harder to keep evaluation purely about findings/policy semantics
2. Throw PolicyError on unknown checkIds
➕ Aligns with existing error-handling style in the package
➕ Immediate failure, no need to interpret a result object
➖ Breaks non-throwing validation workflows
➖ Harder to report multiple unknown IDs without deciding on error shape
Recommendation: Keep the dedicated, non-throwing verifyPolicyAgainstGraph as implemented: it preserves backward compatibility for evaluation, cleanly separates config validation from runtime policy evaluation, and supports reporting all unknown IDs at once.

Pull Request Overview
This PR successfully implements the verifyPolicyAgainstGraph function, providing the necessary validation for policy check IDs against the Definition Graph. The implementation includes ID deduplication and proper API exports, meeting all defined acceptance criteria.
While the code is up to standards, a logic improvement is suggested in the verification loop to prevent runtime errors when processing configuration files where optional fields might be null. Codacy analysis was positive, though a 'MissingRequirements' error prevented the generation of a full coverage diff. All required test scenarios have been identified in the codebase.
Test suggestions
verifyPolicyAgainstGraph returns valid=true when all referenced checkIds exist in the graph.
verifyPolicyAgainstGraph returns valid=false and lists missing checkIds when references are not found in the graph.
verifyPolicyAgainstGraph returns valid=true for policies with no specific checkId filters.
verifyPolicyAgainstGraph deduplicates unknown checkIds when they are referenced across multiple policy rules.
verifyPolicyAgainstGraph handles empty graphs by flagging all referenced checkIds as unknown.
Public API verification to ensure new function and types are exported and usable.
verifyPolicyAgainstGraph compares policy.failOn[].checkIds directly to DefinitionGraph step IDs, but
evaluatePolicy matches checkIds exactly against Finding.checkId, which findings normalization builds
as ${checkIdPrefix}:${ruleId}. This makes verification and enforcement disagree (e.g., step IDs
like checks/typecheck can verify but never match findings, while rule-qualified finding IDs can be
rejected as “unknown”).
ⓘ Recommendations generated based on similar findings in past PRs
Evidence
The verifier uses step.id from the Definition Graph as the only valid identifier, while the
checks→findings pipeline constructs finding check IDs by combining a prefix and SARIF rule id, and
policy evaluation matches those finding check IDs exactly. These are different identifier spaces, so
verification can disagree with actual evaluation.
The issue below was found during a code review. Follow the provided context and guidance below and implement a solution
## Issue description
`verifyPolicyAgainstGraph` validates `policy.failOn[].checkIds` against `StepDefinition.id` values, but `evaluatePolicy` applies `checkIds` as an exact match against `Finding.checkId`. In this repo, `Finding.checkId` is constructed as `${checkIdPrefix}:${ruleId}` during SARIF normalization, and check steps are represented as `checks/<checkId>` in the Definition Graph.
This creates two incompatible identifier namespaces, so verification can (a) reject checkIds that actually match findings, or (b) accept step IDs that will never match any finding.
## Issue Context
- Graph check steps use `StepDefinition.id = "checks/<checkId>"`.
- SARIF normalization sets `Finding.checkId = "<checkIdPrefix>:<ruleId>"`.
- Policy evaluation filters by `rule.checkIds.includes(f.checkId)` (exact string match).
## Fix Focus Areas
- packages/policy/src/verify.ts[24-47]
- packages/policy/src/evaluator.ts[61-67]
- packages/findings/src/normalize.ts[215-231]
- packages/checks/src/resolver.ts[101-110]
- packages/checks/src/extract.ts[48-87]
## Suggested fix approach
Pick one canonical representation and make both verification and evaluation honor it. Two viable options:
1) **Treat policy.checkIds as step IDs (`checks/<id>`)**:
- Update `evaluatePolicy` to match step IDs against findings by prefix (e.g., match if `f.checkId === stepId` OR `f.checkId.startsWith(stepId + ':')`).
- Update/expand `verifyPolicyAgainstGraph` to accept rule-qualified ids as valid when their prefix matches a known step id.
2) **Treat policy.checkIds as bare check IDs (`typecheck`)**:
- In `verifyPolicyAgainstGraph`, derive allowable ids from the graph (e.g., for each `step.id` starting with `checks/`, also accept the suffix after `checks/`).
- Ensure the checks pipeline passes the same bare id as `checkIdPrefix`, or adjust matching consistently.
Update tests in `packages/policy/src/__tests__/verify.test.ts` to cover the chosen canonical form and an end-to-end case verifying + evaluating the same `checkIds` against a normalized finding.
ⓘ Copy this prompt and use it to remediate the issue with your preferred AI generation tools
verifyPolicyAgainstGraph claims it “Does not throw”, but it blindly iterates
graph.project.pipelines and policy.failOn, so malformed runtime inputs (e.g., parsed JSON cast
to types) will throw a TypeError instead of returning PolicyVerification. This breaks the stated
contract and makes callers harder to write defensively.
ⓘ Recommendations generated based on similar findings in past PRs
Evidence
The docstring explicitly promises non-throwing behavior, but the implementation directly iterates
required properties without runtime checks, which will throw if malformed objects are passed at
runtime.
The issue below was found during a code review. Follow the provided context and guidance below and implement a solution
## Issue description
`verifyPolicyAgainstGraph` documents that it does not throw, but it assumes `graph.project.pipelines` and `policy.failOn` are present and iterable. At runtime (especially at config boundaries), callers can accidentally pass unvalidated data, causing a `TypeError`.
## Issue Context
The function signature is typed, but TypeScript types do not enforce runtime shape. The current return type (`{ valid, unknownCheckIds }`) also provides no way to represent structural/shape errors.
## Fix Focus Areas
- packages/policy/src/verify.ts[13-39]
## Suggested fix approach
Choose one of:
1) **Honor the non-throwing contract** by adding runtime guards and expanding the result type, e.g.:
- Add `errors: string[]` (or `reason: "invalid_policy" | "invalid_graph" | null`) to `PolicyVerification`.
- If `policy.failOn` is not an array or `graph.project.pipelines` is not an array, return `{ valid: false, unknownCheckIds: [], errors: [...] }`.
2) **Tighten the contract instead of guarding**:
- Remove/adjust the “Does not throw” statement and clearly document that inputs must be prevalidated (e.g., via `createPolicy(...)` and graph validation).
Since this API is newly introduced in this PR, adjusting the type/contract now is low-cost and avoids locking in misleading behavior.
ⓘ Copy this prompt and use it to remediate the issue with your preferred AI generation tools
Review mode: ⚖️ Balanced: This introduces new runtime policy verification and public API/dependency changes affecting Definition Graph validation; it carries real contract and logic risk, but the localized implementation is not dense enough to warrant redundant extended review.
