The blocker on this issue was whether BCC or the client does the expanding.
Answer, from Anthropic's docs: Claude Code expands ${VAR} and
${VAR:-default} itself, in command, args, env, url and headers, for both
project .mcp.json and user-scope ~/.claude.json. Claude Desktop has no
documented support.
So this is a per-client capability, not a global one, and BCC does NOT
expand on write: resolving a reference into the file would put the secret
back on disk -- the whole thing the user is avoiding -- and would defeat a
feature the client already implements correctly. BCC authors, validates and
warns; expand_env_refs exists to preview what the client will do.
Semantics mirror the documented ones exactly, including the unusual bit:
an unset variable with no default is left as literal ${VAR} text rather
than blanked, because that is what Claude Code passes through.
Gating uses the existing profile_targets_claude_desktop(), so a config that
is correct under Claude Code and broken under Desktop is reported against
whichever profile is actually loaded. The two warnings are worded
differently on purpose -- 'this client will never expand these' is a
different problem from 'this variable looks unset here'.
Two existing behaviours were backwards for this feature and are fixed:
- Secret masking hid placeholders. is_secret_key('API_KEY') is true, so
${API_KEY} rendered as dots -- making a reference indistinguishable from
a stored credential, which is the one distinction that makes the feature
worth adopting. should_mask_value() now skips references, in the table
delegate, _redact_server_data and redact_args alike.
- args_secret_warning fired on placeholders. Moving a token into ${VAR} is
the recommended fix for that warning; continuing to warn punished the
fix. It now skips references while still flagging a real secret that
follows one.
Real secrets are still masked everywhere they were before -- asserted, not
assumed.

Three conflicts, two of them semantic rather than textual:
- bcc.py QSS: this branch added the noticeBanner rules using the old
module-level constants ({MUTED}, {ACCENT}); main had since moved the
stylesheet onto palette slots ({p.muted}). Took main's form and
translated the notice rules into it -- picking either side wholesale
would have either dropped the banner styling or reintroduced globals
that test_stylesheet_builder_has_no_hardcoded_colours now forbids.
- bcc.py methods: both sides appended to MainWindow (update-notice
handlers vs theme handlers). Additive, kept both.
- tests/test_core.py: the usual EOF append. Kept both blocks.
_build_menu_bar auto-merged cleanly (View menu above, Help menu below);
verified both are present with their menu roles intact.
Verified: 272 test functions = 265 (main) + 7 (this branch), no
duplicates; 421 passed, ruff clean.
Union conflict at the end of tests/test_core.py -- both branches appended a
test block. Kept both, main's #72/#73 block first. Verified: 265 test
functions = 238 baseline + 15 (#77) + 12 (theming), no duplicates.
Reported from the field: running v1.2 against a repo with v1.3.0 published
gave no prompt, and there appeared to be no way to check manually. The
checker itself works; it was invisible, for two reasons.
#78 -- the notice was written to the shared status label, which 21 other
call sites rewrite. The check runs off-thread and lands a second or two
after launch, right as the user starts clicking, so the next selection or
refresh wiped it. Exactly the bug fixed for the MSIX warning in #35, which
got a persistent banner; that fix was never carried to the update notice.
Adds NoticeBanner: a persistent, dismissible notice carrying its own action
button. It's a shared widget rather than a second bespoke banner, so the
next thing needing the user's attention doesn't reach for the status bar
again. (The MSIX banner still uses its own QLabel -- migrating it is a
follow-up, deliberately not bundled with a bug fix.)
#79 -- the only 'Check for updates' affordance was a button inside the
About dialog, which is not where anyone looks. Worse, the About action was
created without a menu role, and Qt auto-assigns AboutRole to actions whose
text begins with 'About', relocating it into the macOS application menu --
so the notice's own hint, 'Help > About to view it', pointed at a menu that
on macOS doesn't contain the item.
Help now has its own 'Check for updates...' item with an explicit
ApplicationSpecificRole, and the About action states its AboutRole rather
than inheriting it invisibly. The menu-driven check is never throttled and
always reports back -- the user asked, so silence would read as broken.
The decision and the wording live in core.update_notice() because the test
suite has no PySide6 (CI installs pytest + cryptography only), so anything
in bcc.py is untestable. A test asserts the notice text names no menu path,
which is what went stale here in the first place.
Closes#78Closes#79
BCC has always been dark-only -- BG #1b1d23, hardcoded at import time, with
no light option and no awareness of the desktop's appearance. On a light
desktop it matches nothing else on screen and there was no way to change it.
Adds a Palette value type in bcc_core with DARK (byte-identical to the
colours v1.3.0 shipped) and a new LIGHT, plus resolve_theme(setting,
system_is_dark) so the decision is testable without a Qt app. View > Theme
offers Match system / Light / Dark, persisted in QSettings under ui/theme,
defaulting to following the system.
The light palette's semantic colours are deliberately not the dark ones
lightened: #4ade80 sits near 1.7:1 against white. They are darkened to clear
WCAG AA, and a contrast test enforces >= 4.5:1 for every text colour against
its surface in both palettes so nobody harmonises them back later.
Three near-black literals were baked into the stylesheet (#1a1205 on-accent
text, #202229 disabled table, #16181d diagnostics pane). Fine with one theme,
invisible breakage with two -- each now has a palette slot, and a test
asserts build_stylesheet contains no hex literals at all.
The ~20 inline setStyleSheet(f"color: {MUTED}") call sites are left alone:
apply_palette rebinds the module-level colour names, and an f-string resolves
its names when it runs, so each call site picks up the new colour on its next
render. Switching theme reapplies the global QSS and re-renders the
inline-styled widgets, so nothing is left dark-on-light.
Refs #75
Two silent-failure bugs found auditing the v1.3.0 features.
#72 -- extract_servers called dict() on every server value, so a config
that was valid JSON but held a non-object server ("foo": "oops", a
number, a list, null) raised on load. The strict parse succeeded, so the
repair path never saw it, and the call sat outside the load try/except:
an unhandled traceback with the window half-swapped to the new profile.
It also made the #54 schema lint unreachable for the most likely
hand-edit mistake -- the load died before the linter ran.
Malformed values are now preserved verbatim on ServerEntry.raw (behind a
NO_RAW sentinel, since a literal JSON null is itself a malformed entry
worth keeping) and written back untouched on Save, so nothing is silently
deleted. lint_servers names the offending entry instead.
#73 -- the stale-file "Merge & save" path reloaded the file from disk and
re-applied the user's servers, but apply_servers only writes mcpServers
and _disabledMcpServers. Named server sets live under _bccServerSets in
the same file, so a set saved that session was dropped from disk and then
from memory, with no warning, on the path the user picks because it
sounds like the safe one.
BCC-owned keys are now declared in BCC_OWNED_KEYS and carried across by
carry_owned_keys, which reports genuinely contested keys so the status
line can say so. Deliberately one-directional: a key absent locally is
left alone on disk, because 'user deleted their last set' and 'another
machine just added sets' are indistinguishable and deleting someone
else's data is the worse failure.
Closes#72Closes#73
Finding 1: can_sign() returned True on an empty changeset, and _on_sign
compared the reviewed blob against a hardcoded "main" rather than the ref
actually reviewed — so the PR path could never sign, and the main-vs-main
path unlocked Sign with zero entries acknowledged. That is how commit b08cf21
signed 19 entries nobody reviewed. can_sign now refuses an empty diff, checks
has_blocking_risk itself instead of trusting a GUI checkbox, and resolves the
TOCTOU pin from the reviewed ref via a pure, testable sign_precondition().
Finding 5: the catalog key and the release key are now separate. The release
key lives in CI and signs checksums; the catalog key stays offline and signs
what users execute. A CI compromise gets the former, not the latter.
Findings 2/3/4/6/7. config.env now gets the deny-list, ASCII, secret and
empty-or-placeholder checks that args always had; version pinning is enforced
at runtime, not only in the maintainer tool; the CI gate pins the expected
pubkey instead of trusting the one in the PR it is reviewing; resolve_catalog
anchors its cap to the bundled version and prefers bundled on ties; catalog
ids are constrained.
Tests rewritten: the old fixtures asserted the unpinned form validates clean
and that config.env passes through verbatim — they enshrined two of the bugs.
Fixes findings 2, 3, 4, 6, 7 from the issue #68 adversarial review.
- Finding 2: config.env was type-checked only. Add CATALOG_DENIED_ENV_KEYS
(case-insensitive) for interpreter/loader-override keys (NODE_OPTIONS,
PYTHONPATH, LD_PRELOAD, ...), apply the ASCII check and the existing
secret-value check to env keys/values, and require env values to be
empty or a single <PLACEHOLDER> token.
- Finding 3: version pinning was only checked by catalog_review.py (which
never runs on the signing path per finding 1). Move enforcement into
_validate_catalog_config: npm/uvx specs must carry @version or ==version
(scoped names handled), docker images must have an explicit non-latest
tag. Only the first plausible package-spec token is checked, so flags,
<PLACEHOLDER>s, and docker subcommands/flags don't trip it. All 19 real
catalog entries still validate clean.
- Finding 4: the CI catalog-signature gate imported bcc_core from the PR
branch and trusted whatever CATALOG_PUBKEYS said there, so a PR changing
both catalog.json and CATALOG_PUBKEYS (with a matching signature) went
green. ci.yml now hardcodes the expected base64 pubkey and asserts
bcc_core.CATALOG_PUBKEYS matches it before verifying the signature.
NOTE: the maintainer is planning to rotate this key -- update
EXPECTED_CATALOG_PUBKEY_B64 in ci.yml as its own reviewed change when
that happens, never bundled with a catalog content change.
- Finding 6: resolve_catalog's anti-rollback/anti-freeze guards sat behind
`if best_version >= 0`, so the first verified candidate was accepted
unconditionally and the anti-freeze anchor drifted with each accepted
candidate instead of staying fixed. The cap is now measured against the
bundled catalog's version specifically (the trust anchor baked into the
binary), regardless of evaluation order; bundled wins version ties; and
a new pure `floor` parameter lets a future caller pass a persisted
accepted-version floor.
- Finding 7: catalog id is now constrained to ^[a-z0-9][a-z0-9._-]{0,63}$.
Tests: fixed _minimal_catalog to use a pinned package (was enshrining
finding 3), rewrote the env-passthrough test to prove the validation
boundary instead of asserting env passes through unchecked, and
reordered test_resolve_catalog_rejects_absurd_version_jump so it
actually exercises the first-candidate path. Added positive/negative
tests for every new rule. Manually verified each new check by commenting
it out and confirming the guarding test goes red, then restoring it.
Fixes#68 findings 1 and 5.
Finding 1 -- the review gate signed without reviewing anything:
- ReviewWindow._on_sign hardcoded "main" as the TOCTOU comparison ref, so
any PR review (where _on_load pins the PR head's blob SHA) could never
sign; the only working path was main-vs-itself, whose empty diff made
can_sign() vacuously True (set() <= set()). Commit b08cf21 signed 19
entries through exactly that path with zero of them reviewed.
- can_sign() now refuses an empty changeset outright, and itself checks
has_blocking_risk() across every changed entry rather than trusting the
GUI to have disabled a checkbox.
- ReviewSession now carries loaded_ref (the exact ref reviewed); a new pure
sign_precondition(session, resolve_blob_sha) resolves the TOCTOU SHA from
that ref, never a hardcoded "main". _on_load's retry path re-diffs
instead of re-pinning the same stale SHA, so a blob-mismatch refusal
can't loop forever.
- source="main" now diffs against the last catalog a maintainer actually
SIGNED (walking catalog.json's git history until a version verifies
against the current .sig), not against itself.
- Replaced the theatre-only test_no_acknowledge_all_function_exists (only
asserted no function was *named* acknowledge_all) with a test that also
exercises the real gate. Added can_sign/sign_precondition coverage for
the empty-diff, blocking-risk, and ref-resolution seams -- each verified
to fail when its guard is removed.
Finding 5 -- the catalog key and release key were the same CI-resident key:
- scripts/sign_checksums.py gets its own RELEASE_PUBKEYS (separate from
bcc_core.CATALOG_PUBKEYS) and a verify_checksums_against_any() helper.
- release.yml's signing-smoke-test now verifies RELEASE_SIGNING_KEY against
RELEASE_PUBKEYS only -- it no longer imports bcc_core/CATALOG_PUBKEYS at
all, so this workflow can never compare a CI secret against the
catalog's root of trust.
- catalog_console.py: keygen/show-seed-b64 gain --release, with separate
keychain/file storage per key kind. show-seed-b64 refuses to run without
--release, so the catalog seed can't be exported to a CI secret by habit.
- README documents both keys' trust properties and the asymmetry: a CI
compromise burns the release key, never the catalog key.
The maintainer must rotate the catalog key (it was CI-resident, so treat it
as burned for catalog use) and generate a fresh release key -- see the PR
description for the exact steps. No key is generated or committed here.
Two gaps closed now that a real key exists.
1. CI 'Catalog signature' job (the #61 gate): every push/PR verifies
data/catalog.json against data/catalog.json.sig using the public key in
bcc_core, and runs validate_catalog. The threat model here is not an
outsider pushing to the repo -- it is merging a friendly-looking PR
without really reading it. A contributor can change catalog.json but
cannot produce a matching signature, so a blindly-merged PR now lands as
a red build within a minute instead of quietly riding into the next
release. Public-key only; no secret involved.
2. release.yml 'Signing key smoke test' (workflow_dispatch only): the
Publish job is gated on a tag, so a manual run never exercised signing --
a wrong or missing RELEASE_SIGNING_KEY would first surface during a real
release. This signs a throwaway manifest with the secret and verifies it
against the public key compiled into bcc_core, proving the two halves of
the keypair actually match. Publishes nothing.
Adds the Ed25519 public key generated by the Catalog Console (#62),
replacing the b"\x00"*32 placeholder, and imports base64 (the key line
referenced it without the import, so bcc_core failed to load at all).
Verified end to end against the signature the Console pushed in b08cf21:
signature verifies, catalog validates clean, resolve_catalog accepts the
bundled copy (19 servers), and a single-byte tamper is rejected.
Maintainer-only PySide6 tool: semantic per-entry diff of data/catalog.json,
blocking risk predicates (non-empty env values, command allowlist, non-ASCII
homoglyphs, unpinned packages, URL domain changes), automatic off-thread
registry lookups (publisher/age/downloads/near-neighbour), acknowledge-gated
signing with a pinned git blob SHA (refuses to sign bytes that changed since
review), and payload+signature emitted in a single commit.
Never shipped to users — excluded from bcc.spec, with a test asserting it.
Review feedback: making the registry lookup an on-demand 'Check registry'
button was a deviation from the design intent, not a style choice. The
registry lookup is the one check a human reviewer genuinely cannot do by
eye -- it's what caught firecrawl-mcp's unrelated npm publisher in the
seed data. Gating it behind a button makes it optional, and an optional
check is the one a tired maintainer skips at 11pm -- exactly the failure
mode this tool exists to defend against. The friction belongs on
approval, never on information.
EntryCard now kicks off its registry lookup automatically at construction
time (i.e. as soon as _render_cards() builds the cards for a loaded
review), one RegistryLookupWorker (QThread) per changed entry, all
starting concurrently as the cards are built. Nothing about the lookup's
pure logic changed -- catalog_review.lookup_registry_info was already
fail-soft (RegistryInfo(available=False) on any fetch problem, never an
exception) and can_sign() never depended on registry state, so a dead
registry still cannot gate review or signing.
Renamed the button 'Check registry' -> 'Re-check' and kept it wired to
the same _run_registry_lookup(), for manually retrying a failed/unavailable
lookup. Label copy now reads loading... while a lookup is in flight (was
'not checked yet.' / 'checking...'), matching the loading -> result |
unavailable per-entry states.
No change to acknowledge-gating or the TOCTOU blob-SHA pin in
catalog_review.py. ruff check/format clean; full suite still 321 passed,
1 pre-existing unrelated skip -- catalog_review.py (the tested pure-logic
module) is untouched, only catalog_console.py's GUI wiring moved from
button-triggered to auto-triggered.
Adds a separate PySide6 tool (catalog_console.py) that reviews proposed
changes to data/catalog.json and signs the approved result. Never shipped
to users, never in the release bundle -- maintainer runs it from source.
Pure, GUI-free logic lives in a new catalog_review.py (kept out of both
the GUI and bcc_core.py to avoid merge conflicts on the latter):
- diff_catalogs(old, new) -> list[EntryChange]: semantic (per-entry)
diff, not a text diff, with per-field before/after values.
- Six independent risk predicates, each unit-tested: non-empty
env_required value, command outside bcc_core.CATALOG_ALLOWED_COMMANDS
(imported, not redefined), non-ASCII code points in id/command/args
(rendered with escapes -- homoglyph/RTL-override defence), unpinned
npm/docker package references, URL domain changes (lookalike-domain
swap defence), brand-new entries flagged for extra scrutiny.
- ReviewSession + can_sign(): the Sign button stays disabled until every
changed entry is individually acknowledged -- no "acknowledge all"
shortcut exists, and a comment in the code says never to add one.
- TOCTOU fix (adversarial review on #62): the git blob SHA of
data/catalog.json is pinned when review begins; can_sign() refuses to
sign if the current blob differs, forcing a re-review. The Console
re-fetches the blob SHA immediately before signing and enforces this.
- catalog_signing_message() imports bcc_core's domain-separation prefix
(_CATALOG_SIG_DOMAIN) rather than retyping it, so the Console's
signatures and bcc_core.verify_catalog_signature can't drift apart --
proven by a round-trip test (sign here, verify via bcc_core).
- encrypt_private_key/decrypt_private_key: the signing key is never
stored plaintext (scrypt + AES-256-GCM at rest, OS keychain via the
optional keyring package if available, else an encrypted file under
$HOME outside the repo).
- Registry lookup (lookup_registry_info + injected Fetcher): the network
call is kept out of this module for offline testability;
catalog_console.py supplies npm/PyPI HTTP fetchers. Fails soft --
network down means "unavailable", never a block on review.
near_neighbor_ids() flags edit-distance <=2 typosquat candidates
against existing catalog ids.
catalog_console.py wires the above into a Qt GUI: Load (open PRs
touching data/catalog.json via the Gitea REST API, or main) -> Review
(one EntryCard per changed entry, command/args rendered visually
dominant, risk findings colour-coded, per-card registry-lookup button
running off the UI thread like bcc.py's ConnTester/SpawnTester) -> Sign
(re-checks the pinned blob SHA, prompts for the key passphrase, writes
data/catalog.json + data/catalog.json.sig and commits+pushes BOTH in a
single commit -- so main is never red between a catalog merge and its
signature). Every attacker-controlled string renders through a
plain_label() helper that both escapes HTML and forces Qt.PlainText, so
a script/image payload in a description/notes/URL can't render as
markup. Also provides keygen (generates + stores an encrypted keypair,
prints the base64 public key) and show-seed-b64 (prints the base64
private seed for the RELEASE_SIGNING_KEY CI secret) CLI subcommands.
Excluded from the release bundle: bcc.spec's Analysis() only ever starts
from bcc.py, and tests/test_catalog_console_packaging.py asserts neither
new file is named anywhere in bcc.spec and that bcc.py never imports
either module.
Tests: 67 new (62 in test_catalog_review.py, 5 in
test_catalog_console_packaging.py) covering diff_catalogs, every risk
predicate individually, the acknowledge-gating + TOCTOU can_sign()
logic, the sign/verify round-trip against bcc_core, key encryption
(including wrong-passphrase and corrupted-blob rejection),
edit-distance/near-neighbour matching, and registry-lookup fail-soft
behaviour. Full suite: 321 passed, 1 pre-existing unrelated skip. ruff
check and ruff format --check both clean. catalog_console.py (Qt/GUI)
could not be executed in the sandbox this was developed in (no system
EGL/GL libraries available for PySide6) -- it was syntax-checked
(py_compile) and lint/format-checked but not smoke-tested; see PR body
for what AJ should verify.
Closes#62
Publish SHA-256 checksums for every release artifact and sign them with a
domain-separated Ed25519 signature. Skips signing (loudly) if the key secret
is absent rather than failing the release. README documents verification and
states the limit plainly: this proves the file is the one we published; it
does not remove Gatekeeper/SmartScreen warnings.
- Pin every basic-tier entry to an exact published version (npm @x.y.z,
uvx @x.y.z, docker :tag). Unpinned npx -y <pkg> means a package
compromised AFTER we ship auto-upgrades into every user; a pin bounds
supply-chain compromise to versions we actually reviewed.
- Drop firecrawl from the seed (19 entries). npm publish rights are held
solely by hello_sideguide/sideguide.dev, which has no visible
relationship to firecrawl.dev, while the package is presented as
official. Publisher identity we cannot tie to the vendor is exactly
what this catalog must not execute on a user's machine. Retained in the
research pool pending confirmation.
- postgres: ship --access-mode=restricted, not unrestricted. A curated
catalog must not default to handing an LLM write access to your DB.
- Add last_release (ISO date, from the live registry) so the UI can show
freshness; postgres-mcp and mcp-obsidian are both ~14mo stale.
Phase 1 of the MCP server catalog: pure, GUI-free core functions plus the
seed data/catalog.json (20 servers). No GUI wiring in this PR -- bcc.py is
untouched; a follow-up PR adds the picker dialog.
- load_catalog(): strict json.loads ONLY. The lenient repair pipeline
(repair_json_text / parse_pasted_json*) is never used on catalog bytes,
by design and by comment, so a signature always authenticates exactly
what gets parsed.
- validate_catalog(): rejects the whole file (not per-entry) on: bad
schema/version types, missing tier-appropriate fields (basic needs
config.command+args, link-only needs docs_url and no config), a
command allowlist (npx/uvx/docker/node/python/python3 only), -e/--eval/-c
denial for node/python, --privileged and root/$HOME volume-mount denial
for docker, non-empty env_required values (hard rejection -- secrets
never ship in the catalog), secret-looking args (reuses
_TOKEN_PREFIXES/_is_secret_value rather than reimplementing), non-https
URL fields, and non-ASCII code points in id/command/args (homoglyph
defence).
- verify_catalog_signature(): Ed25519 via the cryptography package,
domain-separated message (the literal prefix "bcc-catalog-v1|" + raw
bytes), accepts a match against any key in CATALOG_PUBKEYS
(rotation-ready), never raises.
- resolve_catalog(): picks the highest version among bundled/cached/remote
candidates that EACH independently pass verify + validate -- the bundled
catalog gets no implicit trust, closing the hole where an unsigned
payload merged to main would win on being local. Anti-rollback (never
regress below the best verified candidate already in hand) and
anti-freeze (reject a jump of more than 1000 versions) built in.
- catalog_entry_to_paste_json() / config_has_unfilled_placeholders(): small
pure helpers the future GUI dialog will use to feed a catalog pick into
the existing paste-import path and to gate Save on unfilled placeholder
tokens.
data/catalog.json: the provided 20-server seed, with a signed_at field
added at the top level (lives inside the signed payload once real signing
lands in #62). Wired into bcc.spec's PyInstaller datas so it bundles into
the frozen app.
Security requirements from the issue, and where they landed:
- Catalog bytes never touch the lenient JSON repair path -- enforced by
load_catalog()'s strict json.loads and a comment warning against wiring
it in later.
- env_required values are a hard rejection when non-empty, not a warning.
- Secret-looking args are rejected at validation time, reusing the
existing secret-detection helpers instead of duplicating them.
- Non-ASCII id/command/args rejected (typosquat/homoglyph defence).
- URL fields restricted to https://.
- Ed25519 signature verification is domain-separated and never raises.
- The bundled catalog is verified at runtime exactly like remote/cached --
no implicit trust for being local.
- Anti-rollback and anti-freeze bounds on resolve_catalog's version
comparison.
Tests: 42 new tests added to tests/test_core.py (full suite: 239 passed,
1 pre-existing unrelated skip). ruff check and ruff format --check both
clean.
Publish SHA256SUMS for every release archive and sign it with a
detached Ed25519 signature (SHA256SUMS.sig), since paid code signing
(macOS Developer ID, Windows Authenticode) and Sigstore keyless (needs
a Fulcio-trusted OIDC issuer; self-hosted Gitea isn't one) are both
out of budget/scope.
- scripts/sign_checksums.py: dependency-light (cryptography only)
helper to hash a directory of files into a sha256sum(1)-compatible
SHA256SUMS manifest, sign it (domain-separated: b"bcc-release-v1|"
+ raw manifest bytes), and verify a signature. CLI has generate/
sign/verify subcommands; verify doubles as the check path.
- tests/test_checksums.py: 15 unit + CLI-subprocess tests covering
hashing, manifest formatting, sign/verify roundtrip, tamper
detection, wrong-key rejection, domain-separation, and the
no-key-provided failure path (must error, never write an empty/
bogus .sig).
- .github/workflows/release.yml: Publish Release job now checks out
the repo, flattens build artifacts, generates SHA256SUMS, and signs
it from the RELEASE_SIGNING_KEY secret (base64 raw Ed25519 seed) if
present. If the secret is absent, the release still publishes with
a loud ::warning:: and no .sig — it never fails the release or
publishes a bogus signature.
- README.md: new 'Verifying your download' section with the (still
placeholder) public key, sha256sum -c / Get-FileHash commands, and
an explicit statement that this does not remove Gatekeeper/
SmartScreen warnings.
- requirements-dev.txt / ci.yml: add cryptography as a dev/test
dependency for the new script and its tests.
Touches no files from bcc_core.py / tests/test_core.py /
pyproject.toml / bcc.spec to avoid colliding with concurrent work on
those files.
Sets live in the config under _bccServerSets (bcc-owned, ignored by
Claude, travels with the file). Apply enables exactly the set's members
and parks the rest; vanished members are reported, not fatal. GUI row:
set combo + Apply + Save set… + delete.
