Controller disposition — EVIDENCE ONLY / NONCANONICAL

This draft is preserved as a proposal, not an active implementation.

  • Canonical focused unit: issue #905 / PR #899.
  • Exact proposal head: cb8a8dee263b0d8cef4fa6d4479677a026c11b44.
  • Proposed policy change: when no trusted publication exists and all trusted allowlists are empty, publish a neutral Check instead of the current fail-closed failure.
  • Safety classification: this changes enforcement semantics while the dedicated trust App is unprovisioned. It requires an explicit repository-owner/security decision; the controller is not authorized to adopt or normalize it.
  • Provenance: Copilot opened this PR without a focused issue, valid agent-lock-manifest, or provider run ID. Exact-head truth-gate run 29921176550 is blocked with invalid_payload for issue.number, policy.agent_login, and policy.run_id.
  • Current exact head spans 11 files (+786/-789). No exact-head workflow runs were returned yet, and five review threads are unresolved. No workflow approval is authorized.
  • Review: Vercel's current-head review identifies a real contradiction—the protected policy notes still state empty allowlists intentionally block. That contradiction is deliberately unresolved because changing the notes would legitimize an unapproved security exception.
  • Deployment: Vercel preview 9VYnv9RVj32BJMqHKjVeLPVSE3Ak is READY. It proves web-build compatibility only, not governance safety.

Next executable action

Keep this PR draft and do not approve workflows, merge, or port the change. If a repository/security owner explicitly authorizes neutral-until-provisioned behavior, implement the smallest approved change on the existing canonical #899 branch under #905 and verify that exact new head. Otherwise retain this PR only as decision evidence.

Execution receipt

No model or agent is being disabled. No merge, closure, branch deletion, workflow approval, credential change, ruleset weakening, or production mutation is authorized.

Additional Suggestion:

The notes field in trusted-publishers.json contradicts the new behavior, still asserting an empty allowlist "intentionally blocks" when it now yields a passing neutral advisory check.

## Required enforcement rollout

`agent-completion/truth-gate` remains advisory and must not be added as a required status. The separate **Agent completion enforcement** workflow is the required, head-bound Check run. It verifies an exact-head machine-readable report published through a dedicated GitHub App and rejects missing, stale, edited, deleted, ambiguous, or self-published agent evidence. The protected policy is `.github/agent-lock/trusted-publishers.json`; empty trusted-publisher or trusted-actor allowlists are intentionally blocking. Custom roles are fail-closed.

It verifies an exact-head machine-readable report published through a dedicated GitHub App and rejects missing, stale, edited, deleted, ambiguous, or self-published agent evidence. The protected policy is `.github/agent-lock/trusted-publishers.json`; while a published report exists, empty trusted-publisher or trusted-actor allowlists are intentionally blocking. When no trusted publication exists and every allowlist in a well-formed fail-closed policy is empty (the dedicated App is not yet provisioned), the workflow publishes a `neutral` advisory Check instead of failing every pull request; any provisioned or malformed policy with a missing publication still fails closed. Custom roles are fail-closed.
`pr-checks.yml` retains the advisory `agent-completion/truth-gate/pr-<number>` status; it is never required. `agent-completion-enforcement.yml` runs protected default-branch code, does not execute PR code, and creates the separate **Agent completion enforcement** Check directly on the PR head SHA. It accepts only an exact-head, machine-readable report published by the configured dedicated GitHub App. Missing, stale, edited/deleted, ambiguous, or untrusted evidence fails closed.

Before enabling the rule, provision `.github/agent-lock/trusted-publishers.json` through protected review with the trusted App and actor allowlists. Empty lists intentionally block. Configure the repository ruleset to require **Agent completion enforcement**, one independent approval, and resolved conversations. Do not require `agent-completion/truth-gate`.
