TL;DR

  • Qualify the 43 known shell and Rust oracle bypass locations before creating outputs, retaining the complete executable pair.
  • Bind report-only verdicts to exact sites, per-file sources, dependencies and import witnesses instead of a global content snapshot.

Background

The report-only census still has unresolved invocations. Its global snapshot also invalidates unchanged evidence after unrelated repository edits.

Refs #25.

What changes

Library and CLI behavior is unchanged. Test and fixture consumers reject missing or unverified oracle selections instead of accepting a path or returning a passing skip.

  • Covered: per-file evidence and inventory closure, the 43-location migration, Bash 3.2-compatible shell qualification, complete qualification inputs in fixture cache keys and workflow triggers, explicit oracle-free selection of the real frame-handoff comparison, and diagnostic records bound to merged main.
  • Not covered: full classification and remaining bypass repairs. Pins, installers, runtime fallback, native admission, registered rosters, historical evidence, comparison tolerances and measured coverage remain unchanged. The classifier is not a required check here.
  • After merging: classify every unresolved row using the independently reviewed mechanism, repair further bypasses, and enable the required gate only when both unknown and bypass rows are zero.

Decisions

  • Keep the evidence mechanism and known-site migration report-only. Full classification and the required gate are a dependent follow-up after this mechanism is reviewed and merged.
  • Preserve the representation-only commit's trusted per-file counts, including the 43-location, 50-row bypass lower bound. The migration re-derives those exact rows; later baseline drift is recorded separately rather than counted as classification progress.
  • Rebaseline only diagnostic metadata to merged main 1cfe2a526262e0e78b3af91ec9f76455e91a08bf. Remove the obsolete 190-row ffmpeg.rs and 26-row compat_sources.py exclusion proofs. Their current 178 and 35 rows stay unknown, as do all other new or changed invocation rows except the explicitly re-derived existing owner call below. No protected source, judging registration, historical document or evidence file changes in this PR.
  • Retain the existing qualified call at crates/coreav-cli/tests/legacy_encoders.rs:72: fix(transcode): retain declared square pixels #441 inserted seven bytes in an earlier derive attribute, moving its exact span from 2386:2417 to 2393:2424. The identical Command::new(test_oracle::require().ffmpeg()), enclosing fixture command and unchanged qualification owner were checked again against the new dependency context. The new comparison helper's ffmpeg call at line 237 remains unknown. Qualified evidence stays at 119 rows.

The initial diagnostic-only ffmpeg.rs update recorded 14c7db0ca9a7fdd8d349dc807c2293ee6a84198519b1615a537f544ef59f9d5c → 623f8beac57dbc7afd5ced2bc5be2fceaff691b4bcfbee816c63cfd28cb74e97 after #435 and #436. The latest rebaseline changes these three diagnostic digests; the protected-source roster remains 71 files:

Merged-main row attribution. Discovery grows by 137 rows, from 5,802 to 5,939, across these fifteen paths. Equal counts can still contain moved sites. The other changes to the closed inventory contribute no discovered invocation rows.

Evidence

Verification run: Full Python discovery on the rebased implementation passes 1,345 tests with two existing skips. After the diagnostic update, all 66 invocation regressions and the actual classifier command pass their expected-result checks; workflow, pin, real judging-registration, issue-reference, public-text, pull-request-shape and DCO checks pass. The rebased implementation has the same 25 changed paths and identical zero-context changes as the earlier reviewed implementation before the separate diagnostic-only update. All 71 protected files, registered roster owners and historical evidence bytes match merged main. The qualified rows were reconciled individually before and after rebinding, including the shifted legacy-owner span. The fresh classifier report has valid evidence and exact reconciliation of 6,229 rows: 5,939 discovered and 290 closure rows. It has 119 qualified, 1,104 excluded, zero confirmed bypass and 5,006 unknown rows. The 137 additional discovered rows and removal of 216 stale exclusions explain the 353-row increase in unknowns; the classifier still returns failure for those unknowns.

Final-head CI, an independent rebaseline review and canonical similarity evidence are required before merge. Earlier-head receipts do not cover this head. No corpus, performance, remote-infrastructure or additional fuzz campaign was started.

Summary by CodeRabbit

  • Reliability

    • Fixture generation, release clips, and media tests now use a validated FFmpeg and FFprobe pair, failing clearly when qualification checks do not pass.
    • Media test coverage now includes additional file-equivalence and metadata checks.
  • CI

    • Workflow triggers and fixture cache keys now account for shared oracle support inputs, helping ensure relevant changes run through validation.
  • Documentation

    • Updated guidance on oracle qualification, CI coverage, and media command handling.

Walkthrough

The change replaces invocation-classification snapshots and regex rules with schema-2 per-file exact-site evidence and inventory closure. Shell consumers and Rust tests use qualified FFmpeg and ffprobe paths. Fixture cache keys and workflow triggers now account for oracle support inputs.

Changes: Oracle Qualification

Layer / File(s) Summary
Invocation Inventory and Bindings
scripts/oracle_invocation_check.py, scripts/oracle_invocation_classify.py, scripts/tests/test_oracle_invocation_check.py
Invocation discovery checks repository boundaries and symlinks, recognizes scripts by shebang, and records delegated Python relay dependencies. The classifier builds a repository inventory and per-file source bindings.
Exact-Site Evidence and Reports
scripts/oracle_invocation_classify.py, scripts/tests/test_oracle_invocation_classify.py, docs/design/local-oracle-qualification.md, docs/design/oracle-qualification-gate.md, docs/design/oracle-historical-records.json, docs/agents/ffmpeg-cli.md
The classifier validates schema-2 per-file evidence, matches exact invocation sites, reports inventory and evidence reconciliation, and generates refresh proposals without updating the catalogue. Tests and design documents describe evidence validation and report-only migration.
Qualified Shell Oracle Consumers
scripts/gen-fixtures*.sh, scripts/oracle-ffprobe.sh, packages/cli/test/release-clips.sh, scripts/tests/test_shell_oracle_qualification.py, scripts/tests/test_oracle_audio.py
Fixture generators, release-clip generation, and the probe wrapper resolve and validate an FFmpeg and ffprobe pair before use. Tests cover invalid resolver output, retained executable dispatch, overrides, audio arguments, and output handling.
Rust Test Oracle and Registry
crates/coreav-cli/tests/ffmpeg_mkv_aac_copy.rs, crates/coreav-cli/tests/frame_handoff.rs, test-support/oracle-dependent.json
The AAC-copy and frame-handoff tests require the shared test oracle and pass its executable paths to generation, probing, and CLI commands. The oracle-dependent registry adds two tests.
Oracle Support in Fixture Cache Keys
.github/actions/ci-fixtures/action.yml, .github/workflows/{wasm,release,avi-output}.yml, scripts/tests/test_ci_fixtures.py, .github/actions/changed-paths/tests/test_package_filters.py, scripts/tests/test_shell_oracle_qualification.py, docs/agents/ci.md
Fixture-cache workflows hash the support files listed by test_oracle.SUPPORT. Workflow path filters include oracle support inputs, and tests check cache-key changes, missing inputs, and trigger coverage.

Estimated code review effort: 4 (Complex) | ~45 minutes

Change: Bug fix

Security architecture risk: Low · up to 60d16

The reviewed changes strengthen executable selection and evidence validation before generating test outputs. No newly introduced security weakness was established in those paths. Classification remains incomplete and report-only, so the change should not yet be treated as universal enforcement.

Retained concerns
No architecture-level concerns identified.

Security review details

Security Blast Radius

  • inferred — The demonstrated exposure is executable selection within developer/test processes and CI fixture generation, including release-smoke input media and uploaded fixture artifacts. The inspected change does not establish a new production-service, tenant, credential, or infrastructure authority boundary.

Security Findings and Attack Paths

  • observed — A pre-existing qualification exception remains in direct concat-test execution: its helper accepts an environment-selected executable pair based on file existence and can return without comparison when optional inputs are absent. The helper is unchanged from the full PR base. Explicit oracle-free filtering controls test selection but is not universal runtime qualification; this was not established as an introduced or worsened security condition.

Trust Boundaries and Controls

  • inferred — Reviewed catalogue dispositions remain a trust input. Hashes, exact-site identities, dependency witnesses, and boundary-class checks bind those dispositions to current source; they are not a whole-program proof that every invocation is qualified. Unknown sites and the report-only rollout preserve that distinction.

Resilience and Maintainability Implications

  • observed — The separate composed-audio cache still omits oracle_pin.py from its identity and skips generation on a cache hit, although generation invokes that verifier. This behavior exists at both base and head, so the improved general-fixture key does not establish complete verifier-dependent invalidation across all fixture caches.

Hardening Proposals

  • proposed — As a follow-up, include the composed-fixture verifier in that cache's dependency identity so qualification-rule changes cannot reuse fixture evidence generated under older verifier behavior.

Include all qualification support files in both composed-audio cache keys.

The composed fixture generator runs oracle_pin.py --verify-bin. The restore and save keys omit four files from test_oracle.SUPPORT, so changes to those files can reuse stale fixtures.

Review: no blocking issue

Reviewed head 1b103058364dbe167ec27a74d70759a792126861, plan commit 7766e91 first.

What I checked

  • Evidence mechanism. I re-ran the classifier at this head and got the PR's numbers: 6,089 rows (5,799 discovered, 290 closure), exact reconciliation, valid evidence, 119 qualified rows, 0 confirmed bypass rows, 4,650 unknown rows. I added an untracked crates/coreav-cli/tests/test_oracle.rs shadow with no process calls. Every Rust file whose mod/#[path] witness covers that candidate went to stale-file-evidence, frame_handoff.rs fell back to unknown, and the new file failed as unreviewed-inventory-file. In the code, a renamed or moved site misses on the exact (line, kind, scope, program, occurrence) key. A renamed file raises missing evidence dependency. A delegated relay must have its whole closure inside requires, and those digests are checked. A literal 'ffmpeg' cannot be promoted to qualified, and fold origins cannot be less severe. An extensionless script, an executable data file or an outward symlink becomes an unscanned closure row. None of these inherits a verdict. Each Python file's import witnesses include the stems of the anchored owners, so a new scripts/shutil.py-style shadow of test_oracle.py's imports invalidates shell evidence as well.
  • Migration. All five shell consumers make the owner call as a plain assignment before mkdir/manifest creation. They check that the response is exactly two non-empty lines and use $FFMPEG for encoder discovery and every later command. No bare ffmpeg/ffprobe invocation remains. The Rust consumers take both paths from the process-cached test_oracle::require() and pass them to generate, clocks and COREAV_FALLBACK. There is no second lookup and no passing skip. frame_handoff and the concat comparison from fix(join): retain video field metadata #436 are now listed in oracle-dependent.json.
  • Protected material. The 71 frozen paths and their bytes are unchanged against merged main. oracle-historical-records.json, compat_sources.py and judging.json are not in the diff. Only the ffmpeg.rs entry of the classifier's own frozen record changed, 14c7db0c… → 623f8bea…, and the new digest matches the current file. The old digest appears only in the plan note and in main's copy of the record. All 190 ffmpeg.rs rows are re-derived as exact registered-source sites. The PR body names both digests and the reason.
  • Tests. 77 tests in the invocation, shell-qualification and fixture-cache suites pass locally. The former source_snapshot_valid assertions now check evidence_valid, and several of them also require unknown rows > 0. Nothing is skipped or weakened, and the plan and body say that zero confirmed bypasses is not total qualification.

Non-blocking

  1. scripts/oracle-ffprobe.sh:10: "${ORACLE_OPTIONS[@]}" with an empty array under set -u aborts on Bash older than 4.4 with ORACLE_OPTIONS[@]: unbound variable. I reproduced this in a bash:3.2 container when neither FFMPEG nor FFPROBE is set, which is the default call. macOS ships Bash 3.2, and a macOS pair is registered. Main already needed mapfile for the audio level only, so this widens an existing gap rather than opening a new one. ${ORACLE_OPTIONS[@]+"${ORACLE_OPTIONS[@]}"} fixes it.
  2. .github/workflows/release.yml pull_request.paths lists release-clips.sh but not the qualification inputs it now runs (test_oracle.SUPPORT). A change to the owner alone will not start the release dry run, so a broken release-clips.sh would first show up on a tag. wasm.yml got this fix in this PR, but release.yml did not.
  3. avi-output.yml runs gen-fixtures-mkv.sh and gen-fixtures-ts.sh but triggers on neither them nor the owner. This predates the PR. It fits the follow-up.

CodeRabbit

  • oracle_invocation_check.py:481 (missing index entries and gitlinks crash the inventory): valid but minor. The crash was real but failed closed. Fixed in 1b10305 by filtering to regular files in discovery and keeping unscanned-missing/unscanned-nonregular closure rows in the classifier.
  • oracle_invocation_check.py:466 (resolve root before the containment checks): valid but minor. It only affected callers that pass a symlinked root. Fixed in 1b10305.
  • wasm.yml:163 (path filters miss the support inputs): valid but minor. Fixed in 1b10305, with test_all_fixture_support_changes_start_both_wasm_events covering it.

CodeRabbit: 0 confirmed, 3 minor, 0 false positive

There are no open Greptile findings (Greptile is paused). At review time, 6 checks were still pending and none had failed.

Replying to #438 (comment)

Addressed all three non-blocking notes together in 5182285. The probe now uses Bash 3.2-safe array expansion and a read loop rather than mapfile, preserving every audio option before the input, including an unterminated final line. The shell suite passes with an actual Bash 3.2.57 interpreter and with modern Bash. Release PR filters include all qualification support inputs; the AVI filter now covers its fixture generators and the same owner inputs. Both are covered by the existing trigger-matching test infrastructure. The four changed probe sites were re-derived without changing the 119 qualified rows. The three added regression rows remain unknown. A delta review and current-head CI/guard verification are pending.

Review: no blocking issue

Delta review of 1b10305..518228568f5b622eb842859f820636e89db4e873 (head 518228568f5b622eb842859f820636e89db4e873). All three non-blocking notes from the previous review are fixed. I found nothing new.

  • scripts/oracle-ffprobe.sh: both array expansions that can be empty are now guarded. INPUT_INDICES and FFMPEG_ARGS cannot be empty at that point, because STREAM_MAP is checked non-empty first. The read loop behaves like mapfile -t: it keeps empty lines and an unterminated final line, and adds no trailing empty element. It also now runs before set +e, so a missing args file aborts instead of being silently ignored. I ran test_shell_oracle_qualification under real Bash 3.2.57 (musl, COREAV_TEST_BASH) and all 7 tests pass. With the previous script swapped back in, 11 assertions fail under the same interpreter. test_oracle_audio still checks the Rust split_whitespace side and now also checks that the shared file is read before the command. Neither the mapfile test nor the audio test was weakened.
  • release.yml and avi-output.yml: their pull-request filters now include all seven test_oracle.SUPPORT inputs, and AVI also includes scripts/gen-fixtures*.sh. test_release_and_avi_triggers_cover_qualification_and_fixture_inputs derives the inputs from the owner. The package-filter suite passes (19 tests).
  • Evidence record: only the scripts/oracle-ffprobe.sh entry changed. Its three ffprobe sites keep their text and lines. The ffmpeg site moved from line 87 to line 90 with the guarded text, and its class is unchanged. frozen, inventory and dependencies are byte-identical to the previous head. Protected sources, the historical record and compat_sources.py are not in the delta. A re-run gives valid evidence and an exact 6,092 rows (5,802 discovered, 290 closure), 119 qualified, 1,320 excluded, 0 confirmed bypass and 4,653 unknown rows, matching the updated plan note. The invocation, audio and shell suites pass on the checkout.

CodeRabbit: no new inline findings on the delta.

Exact-head similarity evidence for 60d163fb5679a8751e47dd1f3caeb3e469b721cd: the canonical guard against the current main allowlist reports 108 spans of 50+ tokens, 0 not allowlisted, 0 problems, 0 stale entries. The actual public checkout and downloaded report were verified, including all seven embedded qualification support inputs. The report SHA-256 is 9c8c33d03306dd5af60977e88ff2496134f339581748fda531a15936f9b20cf8. This receipt does not replace final-head CI or independent review.

Review: no blocking issue

This reviews the rebase identity and the diagnostic rebaseline at head 60d163fb5679a8751e47dd1f3caeb3e469b721cd on main 1cfe2a526262e0e78b3af91ec9f76455e91a08bf. The previous review covered 5182285.

  • Rebase identity. 8f2ef81, be7ee33 and eb35725 have the same stable patch-ids as 7766e91, 4c11420 and 91891ea, so the plan commit is still first. git diff -U0 ebe4021 5182285 and git diff -U0 1cfe2a5 98c0a99 touch the same 25 paths, and after dropping index and hunk headers every per-path diff is identical. 60d163f changes only oracle-historical-records.json, oracle-invocation-dispositions.json and oracle-qualification-gate.md. All five commits are signed off, and none has a Co-Authored-By or Generated-with line.
  • Protected material. None of the 26 paths this PR changes against main is one of the 71 roster files, anything under docs/measurements, compat_sources.py or judging.json. The roster still has 71 entries, and every frozen digest matches the current bytes.
  • Historical snapshot. Exactly 7 entries change, from 4,882 to 4,886: the README and judging.json (fix(compat): repair judging registration #445), the frame-handoff document and its four new phase-b-* files (docs(transcode): Reject the snapshot helper #432). These are exactly the 7 files main changed under docs/measurements between ebe4021 and 1cfe2a5. All 4,886 entries match the checkout and the tracked boundary set, with nothing unlisted and nothing missing. Main's own record is stale for these 7 files, so main's historical_records currently raises. This rebaseline repairs that.
  • Row attribution. I ran the classifier at 5182285 and at this head and compared rows per path. Twelve paths change count or verdict, and their deltas sum to +137 (5,802 → 5,939). Fifteen paths change location sets, the extra three being ci.yml, deny.yml and test_compat_workflow.py with moves only. Every one of the 15 was changed on main in that range, and git log gives the PR numbers in the body's table for each. The 16 new inventory entries are exactly the files main added, nothing was removed, and the causes match.
  • Withdrawn proofs. The ffmpeg.rs and compat_sources.py file proofs are removed, and their 178 and 35 rows now report unknown. The frozen digests for those two files and judging.json are rebound to main's bytes, but with no proof that grants nothing. Only three file proofs changed. The dependency digests of registered_candidate.py and commands.json dropped out together with their only consumer, the compat_sources.py proof. The historical-record anchor moved to 744203….
  • Kept verdict at legacy_encoders.rs:72. Bytes 2393:2424 are test_oracle::require().ffmpeg(), which the old file had at 2386:2417, and the let lossless … .arg(&lossless) fixture block is byte-identical to the old file. bounded.rs, test-support/oracle.rs and the owner scripts are unchanged on main. The proof adds support/sar_delta.rs to requires along with its mod witness. The new compare helper call at line 237, which receives make.get_program(), stays unknown and does not inherit anything. This is the delegation case staying fail-closed.
  • Report. Valid evidence, 0 problems, exact 6,229 rows (5,939 discovered, 290 closure), 119 qualified, 1,104 excluded, 0 confirmed bypass and 5,006 unknown rows. This matches the body and the plan note. The note calls this baseline drift and does not count it as classification progress.

There are no new CodeRabbit inline findings. At review time 26 checks were pending and none had failed.
