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.
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.
The self-hosted Windows runner's PowerShell execution policy rejects
setup-python's install script, so Windows mirrors release.yml: py -3.12
+ venv (the version the release binaries ship with). Linux keeps the
full 3.10/3.12/3.13 setup-python matrix.

- Use actions/setup-python only on Linux (container); macOS/Windows create
a venv from pre-installed python3.12 to avoid privileged install failures
- Downgrade upload/download-artifact to v3 (v4 uses an API Gitea doesn't support)
- Remove merge-multiple (v4-only option) from download-artifact
- Change release files glob to artifacts/**/* (v3 nests each artifact in a subdir)
