docs: plan AI/LLM security and engineering-hygiene tool expansion - #5

Conversation
Scopes nine new toolbox entries plus repo enablement work, sequenced in six phases. Every proposal is constrained to the existing architecture: no new runtime deps, no third-party APIs, guarded fetch + rate limit on every server route, Finding[] report shape, registry-driven wiring. Client-only tools (prompt-injection linter, key-leak linter, MCP config auditor) are sequenced first since they add no network surface; the active AI-endpoint probe is sequenced last.

Re-checks each proposal against the property the four live tools share: every one returns a verifiable fact the user can check independently. - Promotes the MCP config auditor to lead tool; every rule is a fact and the threat model (supply-chain RCE) is real and under-served. - Keeps all four engineering-hygiene tools, including cache/compression and robots/sitemap. Notes B4's shared robots parser with A1. - Records the AI crawler-policy auditor as gated on a scope decision: technically the cleanest proposal, but it audits content licensing, not security, and has no honest OWASP mapping. - Cuts the prompt-injection linter (heuristics, not facts; a passing grade would imply an assurance nothing structural can deliver) and the exposed-AI-endpoint probe (its valuable case is internal addresses, which the SSRF guard blocks by design). Both retained under "Considered and cut" with reasoning. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5 <noreply@anthropic.com> Claude-Session: https://claude.ai/code/session_01YbYteQPCs7CxG1gSJ568aD

172-174: 📐 Maintainability & Code Quality | 🔵 Trivial | ⚡ Quick winResolve the B4/A1 sequencing claim.
B4 ships in Phase 4, but A1 ships in Phase 5. B4 cannot be nearly free from a parser that A1 introduces later. Move the shared parser into an earlier module, or swap the phases and update the effort estimates.
Also applies to: 205-212

In `@docs/AI-ENGINEERING-TOOLS-PLAN.md`:
- Around line 73-80: Update the credential-detection plan to distinguish
deterministic prefix or format matches from Shannon-entropy-only observations;
report the exact rule, matched value class, and entropy score, and only classify
a value as a credential leak when a deterministic rule is satisfied.
- Line 221: Update the server-tool routing guidance so every route includes
rateLimit, while safeFetch is required only for routes that perform HTTP(S)
requests; keep node:dns-only routes such as B1 free of the HTTP-fetch wrapper.
- Around line 104-105: Update the referenced URL-checking flow for /llms.txt and
/llms-full.txt to require URLs to match the submitted origin, while retaining
private-address blocking and redirect safety. Cap the number of sampled URLs,
and ensure guardUrl validation completes before any safeFetch call.
- Around line 31-33: Clarify the rateLimit() policy before adding routes: define
the stable client-key extraction method, specify fallback behavior for missing
or untrusted keys, and state whether rate limiting must use shared storage
across processes before any DNS or fetch work begins. Keep the existing route
preamble guidance aligned with this policy.
- Around line 157-164: Update the “Cache & Compression Auditor” plan to define
an identity-separated test before classifying private-data caching as a
confidentiality finding: use authenticated-versus-anonymous or two distinct
identities, verify cache-key separation or no-store behavior, and otherwise
report only a potential warning.
- Around line 150-154: Update safeFetch or add a separate fetch primitive to
support a guarded single-hop mode that does not follow 3xx redirects and exposes
the first response’s Location header. Extend SafeFetchInit or the new API
accordingly, while preserving existing multi-hop behavior by default and
ensuring the mode is restricted to callers that need redirect validation.

Addresses six review findings plus a sequencing nitpick, all verified against the code and the doc before changing anything. - A3: deterministic prefix/format rules decide the verdict; Shannon entropy drops to a secondary signal reported at info as an observation. The old text billed entropy as a co-equal detector while the document's own bar rejects heuristic verdicts. - B2: safeFetch follows 3xx itself (safe-fetch.ts:120-122) and exposes only the terminal headers, and SafeFetchInit has no opt-out, so the claim that B2 would use it "with redirects not followed" was wrong. B2 now ships a guarded single-hop mode as part of its own scope. - B3: the private-data-cached-publicly finding caps at warn. Proving cross-user reuse needs two identities and the toolbox takes no target credentials, so it can only state the precondition. - A1/B4: advertised llms.txt and sitemap URLs are attacker-controlled; dereference same-origin only, capped at 20 per scan. guardUrl blocks private addresses but permits public ones, so this is a separate gate. - B4/A1: flip the shared robots.txt parser dependency. B4 ships in Phase 4 and A1 in Phase 5, so B4 introduces the parser and A1 imports it, not the reverse. - Definition of done: rateLimit on every server route, safeFetch only on routes that make HTTP requests, since B1 is node:dns-only. - Constraints: note that rateLimit is per-process and in-memory before the plan adds five more routes.

In `@docs/AI-ENGINEERING-TOOLS-PLAN.md`:
- Around line 112-118: Clarify the A1 request budget in the plan so the 20
same-origin advertised URL dereferences are included in the total scan limit, or
explicitly define a separate bounded budget if that is intended. Reconcile the
estimate of 4–6 guarded GETs with this limit and state that every safeFetch
call, including advertised URL checks, counts toward the budget.
- Around line 112-118: Update safeFetch usage in the A1 and B4 scanning flows to
constrain every redirect hop to the submitted origin, either by validating each
3xx Location against that origin or by using an origin-pinned/no-follow mode.
Retain guardUrl checks for address safety and ensure off-origin redirects are
not fetched.

What
Adds
docs/AI-ENGINEERING-TOOLS-PLAN.md— a scoped proposal for extending the toolbox into AI/LLM security and general engineering hygiene — plus a pointer to it from the README's "more tools planned" note. Docs only; no code or behavior changes.The bar used to judge each proposal
The four live tools share a property worth naming: each returns a verifiable fact. The header is present or it isn't; the cert expires on a date;
algisnoneor it isn't. The README even invites users to check the cert verdict againstopenssl s_client. Anything that returns a heuristic opinion dressed as a verdict was cut.Proposed tools
Track A — AI/LLM security
npx -ylaunches, inline secrets inenv, filesystem servers rooted at~, plaintext remote servers. Every rule is a fact; real supply-chain-RCE threat model; under-served by existing tooling.Track B — Engineering hygiene (all four in scope)
node:dnsonly. No HTTP, so zero SSRF surface.Locationgrading, protocol-relative andjavascript:bypasses.Cache-Controlby content type,Varycorrectness, and the private-data-cached-publicly pattern, which is a confidentiality bug rather than only a perf one.robots.txtparser with A1, so its cost depends on the A1 decision.Track C — Repo enablement
CLAUDE.md, anpm run new:toolscaffolder, a coverage gate, a registry contract test, and extracting a shared probe harness out oflib/misconfig/probes.tsbefore the third consumer needs it.Constraints the plan holds to
Every proposal is written against the existing architecture rather than around it: no new runtime dependencies, no third-party APIs or secrets,
guardUrl/safeFetchon every user-supplied URL,rateLimit()at the top of every route,Finding[]/FindingGroup[]report shape so the existingFindingsListrenders it, pure analyzers inlib/with vitest coverage, and registry-driven wiring.Considered and cut
Both are recorded in the doc with reasoning, so the calls are reviewable and reversible.
lib/security/ssrf.tsblocks10/8,172.16/12, and192.168/16by design. What's left is probing third parties' public inference endpoints: the most aggressive action in the box for the least yield.Sequencing
Six phases, one PR per tool: enablement first, then the two client-only AI tools (no network surface at all), then DNS hygiene, then the fetch-based engineering tools with the shared probe harness extracted alongside the first of them.
