Release notes now carry one row per product — the bytes actually published, with their VirusTotal verdict — instead of a column per candidate. Several candidates are scanned so the selector has an alternative when an opaque classifier flags one, but a reader installing cbm cares about what they receive, not about what we discarded. The rejected candidates' verdicts remain in the published evidence TSVs for anyone auditing the selection, and they stay useful to US as a development signal; in a changelog they are noise, and listing a "microsoft-ml" verdict next to a binary nobody can download invites exactly the wrong conclusion. Also removes a claim that had become FALSE: the section asserted that every scan had a minimum of 50 decisive engines. That floor was removed deliberately (it is VirusTotal fleet availability, not a property of our binary) and the last release observed 31. Published notes would have stated something untrue. The observed range is still reported, now over the shipped binaries. The disclosure of a tolerated Microsoft `!ml` is preserved and narrowed to the binaries that ship. The contract test now pins both directions: a flagged binary that SHIPS must be disclosed, and flagged candidates that were rejected must not appear at all. Its fixture gained a target that draws the tolerated verdict on all three candidates, so the disclosure branch is actually exercised — previously every flagged candidate was rejected in favour of a clean sibling, leaving that path untested. README and SECURITY.md updated: they promised notes "link every candidate result". All five release/VT contract tests pass. Signed-off-by: Martin Vogel <martin.vogel.tech@gmail.com>
scripts/ — the canonical leg entries
The doctrine (enforced, not advisory): a venue may provision a machine;
only a canonical leg script may exercise the product. Local CI, PR CI, the
dry run and the release all call the SAME files below — venues differ only in
host specs, architecture and inputs, never in what a leg does. Platform
differences (arm64 sanitizer flags, native Windows behavior, the Linux portable
binary) live INSIDE these scripts, once, never per-venue.
tests/test_venue_parity_contract.sh (run as Step 0j of every test leg) turns
any violation — inline harness logic in a workflow, a bypassed wrapper, a
missing --help — into a red build.
Every entry answers --help (authoritative, agent-oriented: modes, env, exit
codes) and rejects unknown flags with exit 2 + Please consult --help.
The legs
| leg | entry | what a run gives you |
|---|---|---|
| test | test.sh |
DEFAULT = the venue leg: static contracts (Step 0a–0r) + CLEAN ASan+UBSan build + all suites via the parallel harness + prod-binary guards. --suites a,b = iteration mode (incremental rebuild, subset, seconds). --tsan = the ThreadSanitizer leg. CLANGARM64 gets CI's trap-UBSan flags automatically. |
| package wrappers | ci/test-package-wrappers.sh |
Go, npm, and PyPI runtime-set publication/lock suites on the current host. CI runs the same entry on Linux and Windows so both platform lock implementations gate. |
| build | build.sh |
CLEAN production runtime set (native executable + authenticated integration asset; --with-ui adds one content-addressed UI pack). ccache via env.sh makes repeats fast; CCACHE_COMPILERCHECK=content guarantees a hit is byte-identical to a cold compile — never stale. --version, STATIC=1, BUILD_DIR=. |
| lint | lint.sh |
clang-tidy + cppcheck + clang-format (+ no-skips policy). --ci = the CI gate set (no clang-tidy). Drives the same make targets as make lint/lint-ci. |
| smoke (unix) | smoke-local.sh |
Stages a full release fixture, serves it on a kernel-assigned port, runs smoke-test.sh (ALL phases incl. download/install/update E2E) inside a disposable HOME/XDG/TMP sandbox. ui variant makes a missing verified UI pack a FAILURE. CBM_SMOKE_ARTIFACT_DIR = smoke an extracted release artifact verbatim (release mode). |
| smoke (windows) | ../test-infrastructure/vm/vm-smoke.sh |
Same verified runtime-set contract on the real Windows VM, plus the user-PATH registry guard (prepare/verify/cleanup). |
| smoke-invariants | smoke-invariants.sh |
Production-path resilience battery (MCP handshake, all tools invocable, malformed-input handling, supervised crash/hang recovery) — no fixture server or install E2E. smoke.yml runs an explicitly seam-enabled build on the WIDEST source matrix; release artifacts remain seam-free and use the release-shaped smoke legs above. |
| soak | soak-legs.sh |
The release-gating soak SEQUENCE: quick then query-leak (the #581 detector — never reindexes, so RSS growth = query-path leak), each guarded by a completion-summary check. --legs quick for the ASan single-leg variant. Duration is per leg. |
Internal harnesses — never called directly by a venue (the contract forbids
it): smoke-test.sh (phases; wrappers provide fixture server + sandbox),
soak-test.sh (one soak run; soak-legs.sh provides the sequence + guards),
run-tests-parallel.sh (reached through test.sh).
Conventions
- Exit codes: 0 = pass · 2 = usage error · 90 = guard (a run died without its completion summary — never counts as green) · anything else = the leg's real failure.
- Iteration is a flag, not a side-tool: the fast paths (
--suites,--legs) are modes of the SAME entry the gates run, so a dev loop can never drift from the venue behaviour. - Env sandboxing: the smoke wrappers neutralize every agent-config destination override; a smoke can never scribble on your real config.
Recommended workflows
- Iterating on a change:
scripts/test.sh --suites <suite>(seconds, incremental, same ASan+UBSan flags as the gate). List suites:build/c/test-runner --list-suites. Debugging a Windows-on-ARM trap: re-run withSANITIZE=for a plain build, or use the emulatedwin.sh ubsan-*pair for full diagnostics. - Before any push (the 3-OS ladder):
scripts/test.sh(macOS, full) →./test-infrastructure/run.sh full(Linux + TSan + smoke) →test-infrastructure/vm/win.sh test-par+guards+smoke-install(+soakwhen the change touches memory/daemon paths). - Concurrency-touching change: add
scripts/test.sh --tsanearly — the same leg CI gates on. - Release-shaped verification:
CBM_SMOKE_ARTIFACT_DIR=<extracted artifact> scripts/smoke-local.sh <binary> [ui]smokes exactly what would ship. - A leg is red in CI but green locally: first suspect environment shape,
not code — the preflights (
win.shautomatic;scripts/ci/preflight-docker.sh) andtest-infrastructure/README.md's residuals list cover the knowable differences.
