Invalid policy source in "ec validate input" tutorial

[st3penta]

Within the "Validating arbitrary inputs" section on the Conforma site, the tutorial references the repo https://github.com/acme/policy which doesn't exist anymore. Because of this, a user following the tutorial gets an error while validating the input using the EC CLI.

Observed behaviour

$ ec validate input --file data.yaml --policy policy.yaml --output yaml

Error: error validating file data.yaml: evaluating policy: error cloning repository: authentication required: Repository not found.

Expected behaviour

The command finishes successfully.

Acceptance criteria

• Replace the invalid policy source with a working one
• Ensure that the repo used is obvious as an illustrated example

Triage Summary

Severity: Medium · Category: Documentation

Problem

The "Validating arbitrary inputs" tutorial references github.com/acme/policy.git, which does not exist. Users following the tutorial get a Repository not found error.

Root Cause

The tutorial uses a placeholder repository URL that is not (or is no longer) publicly accessible.

Location

The content lives in the conforma/user-guide repo, not in this website repo:

• File: modules/ROOT/pages/cli.adoc
• Lines referencing acme/policy: ~178, 181, 229

Recommended Fix

Replace all github.com/acme/policy.git references with a working public example repository. The replacement should be clearly recognizable as an illustrative example. Update the policy YAML, the .signoff.rego reference, and the expected output block to stay consistent.

Proposed Test

1. Follow the updated tutorial steps exactly as documented
2. Run: ec validate input --file data.yaml --policy policy.yaml --output yaml
3. Verify: command completes without "Repository not found" error
4. Verify: no remaining references to acme/policy in cli.adoc
5. Edge case: confirm the replacement repo is public and unauthenticated access works
