Implements monitoring for emergent offensive behavior in agent-to-agent
conversations, motivated by Irregular Labs research demonstrating that
AI agents can autonomously develop attack behavior through feedback loops.

New components:
- EscalationClassifier: detects coercive rhetoric and urgency amplification
- OffensiveIntentDetector: detects vuln research, priv esc, exfil planning
- FeedbackLoopBreaker: detects error-retry cycles and escalation trends
- ConversationGuardian: orchestrates all three into composite alerts

Integration:
- A2AGovernanceAdapter now accepts optional conversation_guardian parameter
- Guardian runs between content check and rate limit (step 5.5)
- BREAK/QUARANTINE alerts cause task denial
- New a2a_conversation_policy section in policy_schema.json
- All exports added to integrations __init__.py

Tests: 48 new tests covering all components, edge cases, and the full
Irregular Labs paper scenario (lead agent convincing sub-agent to hack).
All 68 tests passing (20 existing + 48 new).

OWASP ASI coverage: #1 Goal Hijacking, #8 Insecure A2A Comms, #10 Rogue Agents

Co-authored-by: Copilot <[email protected]>

Based on reviewing all 11 open PRs, the following recurring issues
were identified and codified:

- Missing MIT license headers is the #1 finding — added as explicit
  check item (#8) with per-language header format examples
- Expanded registered package list: added npm, crates.io, and
  local-only PyPI packages to prevent false dependency confusion flags
- Added cargo add to dependency confusion scan scope (Rust SDK)
- Clarified SHA-pinning format (action@sha not action@tag)
- Added Rust-specific security rule (no unwrap in prod code)
- Added crates.io to ESRP publishing scope

CI Optimization:
- Add dorny/paths-filter to ci.yml to detect which areas changed
- Python lint/test/security: only run when packages/*/src changes
- .NET test: only run when agent-governance-dotnet/ changes
- TS tests: only run when TS/copilot files change
- Integration tests: only on integration package changes
- Workflow security audit: only on .github/workflows/ changes
- Dependency scan: always runs (security gate)
- ClusterFuzzLite: add path filter for packages/*/src + fuzz/
- Security scan: add path filter for packages/ + scripts/

This means docs-only PRs skip all builds/tests, and language-specific
changes only trigger their relevant test suites.

Copilot Instructions:
- Add PR Merge Workflow section (update branch -> approve workflows ->
  approve PR -> auto-merge -> move to next)
- Add CI Optimization section documenting path filter behavior
- Expand registered packages list (PyPI, npm, crates.io)
- Add MIT license header requirement as check #8
- Add Docker image pinning rule
- Add Rust unwrap() rule
- Add per-language header format examples

* fix(ci): add ci-complete gate job for skipped-job compatibility

When path-filters skip jobs (e.g. docs-only PRs skip Python tests),
those jobs report 'skipped' which doesn't satisfy org-level required
status checks. This caused PRs to be stuck with '4 of 5 required
status checks are expected.'

Add ci-complete gate job that:
- Always runs (if: always())
- Depends on all other jobs
- Fails only if any job failed or was cancelled
- Reports success when jobs passed OR were correctly skipped

The org can point required status checks at 'ci-complete' as the
single gate instead of individual job names.

* feat(rust): add execution rings and lifecycle management to Rust SDK

Add two new modules to the agentmesh Rust crate:

- rings.rs: Four-level execution privilege ring model (Admin/Standard/
  Restricted/Sandboxed) with per-agent assignment and per-ring action
  permissions, ported from the Python hypervisor enforcer.

- lifecycle.rs: Eight-state agent lifecycle manager (Provisioning through
  Decommissioned) with validated state transitions and event history,
  matching the lifecycle model used across other SDK languages.

Both modules include comprehensive unit tests and are re-exported from
the crate root. README updated with API tables and usage examples.

* docs: add LIMITATIONS.md - honest design boundaries and layered defense (#953)

Addresses valid external critique of AGT's architectural blind spots:

1. Action vs Intent: AGT governs individual actions, not reasoning or
   action sequences. Documents the compound-action gap explicitly and
   recommends content policies + model safety layers.

2. Audit logs record attempts, not outcomes: Documents that post-action
   state verification is the user's responsibility today, with hooks planned.

3. Performance honesty: README now notes that <0.1ms is policy-eval only;
   distributed mesh adds 5-50ms. Full breakdown in LIMITATIONS.md.

4. Complexity spectrum: Documents the minimal path (just PolicyEvaluator,
   no mesh/crypto) vs full enterprise stack.

5. Vendor independence: Documents zero cloud dependencies in core,
   standard formats for all state, migration path.

6. Recommended layered defense architecture diagram showing AGT as one
   layer alongside model safety, application logic, and infrastructure.

   - Changed from single-crate to workspace build (--workspace)
   - Package loop builds both .crate files
   - Renamed artifact from 'rust-agentmesh' to 'rust-crates'
3. Go: add 'v' prefix to version in doc.go (3.1.0 → v3.1.0)

* fix(ci): use EsrpCodeSigning + dotnet push for NuGet (#965)

EsrpRelease@11 does not support NuGet as a contenttype — it's for
PyPI/npm/Maven/crates.io package distribution. NuGet packages must be
signed with EsrpCodeSigning@5 first, then pushed with dotnet nuget push.

New flow:
1. EsrpCodeSigning@5 with NuGetSign + NuGetVerify operations (CP-401405)
2. dotnet nuget push with the signed .nupkg to nuget.org

This matches the standard Microsoft NuGet ESRP signing pattern used by
azure-sdk, dotnet runtime, and other Microsoft OSS projects.

* fix(security): upgrade axios to 1.15.0 - CVE-2026-40175, CVE-2025-62718 (#966)

Critical S360 action items for SFI-ES5.2 1ES Open Source Vulnerabilities.

CVE-2026-40175 (CVSS 9.9): Unrestricted Cloud Metadata Exfiltration
via Header Injection Chain — prototype pollution gadget enables CRLF
injection in HTTP headers, bypassing AWS IMDSv2 session tokens.

CVE-2025-62718: NO_PROXY Bypass via Hostname Normalization — trailing
dots and IPv6 literals skip NO_PROXY matching, enabling SSRF through
attacker-controlled proxy.

Upgraded in 3 packages:
- extensions/copilot: 1.14.0 → 1.15.0
- extensions/cursor:  1.13.5 → 1.15.0
- agent-os-vscode:    1.13.6 → 1.15.0

* fix(ci): resolve ESRP_DOMAIN_TENANT_ID cyclical reference (#967)

The ADO variable ESRP_DOMAIN_TENANT_ID had a cyclical self-reference,
preventing ESRP authentication across ALL publishing stages (PyPI, npm,
NuGet, crates.io).

Fix: Define MICROSOFT_TENANT_ID as a pipeline-level variable with the
well-known Microsoft corporate tenant ID (72f988bf-..., same default
used by ESRP Release action.yml). This is a public value, not a secret.

Also: NuGet publishing requires Microsoft as co-owner of the package
on NuGet.org. See https://aka.ms/Microsoft-NuGet-Compliance

  (email, phone, addresses) not yet redacted in audit entries.
- Replace 'kernel-level enforcement' with 'policy-layer enforcement'
  in README, OWASP compliance, and architecture overview to match the
  existing 'application-level governance' framing in README Security
  section and LIMITATIONS.md.
- Qualify 10/10 OWASP coverage claim in COMPARISON.md with footnote
  clarifying this means mitigation components exist per risk category,
  not full elimination.
- Update owasp-llm-top10-mapping.md LLM06 row for credential redaction.

* fix(ci): use ESRP Release for NuGet signing (#961)

Co-authored-by: Copilot <[email protected]>

* fix(ci): correct ESRP NuGet contenttype casing (#962)

* fix(ci): add missing packages to ESRP pipeline and fix Go version tag

Three gaps found during publish verification:

1. PyPI: add agentmesh-marketplace (8th package, was missing from matrix)
2. Rust: build+publish both workspace crates (agentmesh + agentmesh-mcp)
   - Changed from single-crate to workspace build (--workspace)
   - Package loop builds both .crate files
   - Renamed artifact from 'rust-agentmesh' to 'rust-crates'
3. Go: add 'v' prefix to version in doc.go (3.1.0 → v3.1.0)
   - Go module tags require semver with v prefix
   - Pipeline grep expects '// Version: v...' format

* fix(ci): correct ESRP NuGet contenttype casing — 'NuGet' not 'Nuget'

ESRP Release rejected 'Nuget' with: 'The value provided for
ReleaseContentType property is invalid.' ErrorCode 2254.

ESRP content types are case-sensitive. Fix: 'Nuget' -> 'NuGet'.

* fix(ci): use EsrpCodeSigning + dotnet push for NuGet (#965)

EsrpRelease@11 does not support NuGet as a contenttype — it's for
PyPI/npm/Maven/crates.io package distribution. NuGet packages must be
signed with EsrpCodeSigning@5 first, then pushed with dotnet nuget push.

New flow:
1. EsrpCodeSigning@5 with NuGetSign + NuGetVerify operations (CP-401405)
2. dotnet nuget push with the signed .nupkg to nuget.org

This matches the standard Microsoft NuGet ESRP signing pattern used by
azure-sdk, dotnet runtime, and other Microsoft OSS projects.

* fix(security): upgrade axios to 1.15.0 - CVE-2026-40175, CVE-2025-62718 (#966)

Critical S360 action items for SFI-ES5.2 1ES Open Source Vulnerabilities.

CVE-2026-40175 (CVSS 9.9): Unrestricted Cloud Metadata Exfiltration
via Header Injection Chain — prototype pollution gadget enables CRLF
injection in HTTP headers, bypassing AWS IMDSv2 session tokens.

CVE-2025-62718: NO_PROXY Bypass via Hostname Normalization — trailing
dots and IPv6 literals skip NO_PROXY matching, enabling SSRF through
attacker-controlled proxy.

Upgraded in 3 packages:
- extensions/copilot: 1.14.0 → 1.15.0
- extensions/cursor:  1.13.5 → 1.15.0
- agent-os-vscode:    1.13.6 → 1.15.0

* fix(ci): resolve ESRP_DOMAIN_TENANT_ID cyclical reference (#967)

The ADO variable ESRP_DOMAIN_TENANT_ID had a cyclical self-reference,
preventing ESRP authentication across ALL publishing stages (PyPI, npm,
NuGet, crates.io).

Fix: Define MICROSOFT_TENANT_ID as a pipeline-level variable with the
well-known Microsoft corporate tenant ID (72f988bf-..., same default
used by ESRP Release action.yml). This is a public value, not a secret.

Also: NuGet publishing requires Microsoft as co-owner of the package
on NuGet.org. See https://aka.ms/Microsoft-NuGet-Compliance

* docs: add Entra Agent ID bridge tutorial (Tutorial 31) (#10)

* fix(pipeline): run NuGet ESRP signing on Windows agent (#1022)

The EsrpCodeSigning@5 task constructs internal paths (batchSignPolicyFile,
ciPolicyFile) using Windows-style backslashes. Running on ubuntu-latest
produced garbled mixed paths like '/home/vsts/work/1/s/src\myapp\'.

Changes:
- Add per-job pool override: PublishNuGet runs on windows-latest
- Convert FolderPath and all shell commands to Windows paths
- Replace bash scripts with PowerShell for the Windows agent
- PyPI and npm stages remain on ubuntu-latest (unchanged)
- Add comment to delete orphaned ESRP_DOMAIN_TENANT_ID ADO variable

Co-authored-by: Copilot <[email protected]>

* feat(rust): add execution rings and lifecycle management to Rust SDK

Add two new modules to the agentmesh Rust crate:

- rings.rs: Four-level execution privilege ring model (Admin/Standard/
  Restricted/Sandboxed) with per-agent assignment and per-ring action
  permissions, ported from the Python hypervisor enforcer.

- lifecycle.rs: Eight-state agent lifecycle manager (Provisioning through
  Decommissioned) with validated state transitions and event history,
  matching the lifecycle model used across other SDK languages.

Both modules include comprehensive unit tests and are re-exported from
the crate root. README updated with API tables and usage examples.

Reflects new capabilities added in PRs #947 (TS), .NET, Rust, Go:
- TypeScript: MCP security scanner + lifecycle management (was 5/14, now 7/14)
- .NET: Kill switch + lifecycle management (was 8/14, now 10/14)
- Rust: Execution rings + lifecycle management (was 6/14, now 8/14)
- Go: MCP security + rings + lifecycle (was 4/14, now 7/14)

All SDKs now have lifecycle management. Core governance (policy, identity,
trust, audit) + lifecycle = 5 primitives shared across all 5 languages.

* docs: add LIMITATIONS.md - honest design boundaries and layered defense (#953)

Addresses valid external critique of AGT's architectural blind spots:

1. Action vs Intent: AGT governs individual actions, not reasoning or
   action sequences. Documents the compound-action gap explicitly and
   recommends content policies + model safety layers.

2. Audit logs record attempts, not outcomes: Documents that post-action
   state verification is the user's responsibility today, with hooks planned.

3. Performance honesty: README now notes that <0.1ms is policy-eval only;
   distributed mesh adds 5-50ms. Full breakdown in LIMITATIONS.md.

4. Complexity spectrum: Documents the minimal path (just PolicyEvaluator,
   no mesh/crypto) vs full enterprise stack.

5. Vendor independence: Documents zero cloud dependencies in core,
   standard formats for all state, migration path.

6. Recommended layered defense architecture diagram showing AGT as one
   layer alongside model safety, application logic, and infrastructure.

* fix(ci): fix Rust crate packaging - use workspace root with -p agentmesh (#959)

* fix(openclaw): critical honesty pass — document what works vs what's planned

Server (__main__.py):
- Add --host/--port argparse + env var support (was hardcoded 127.0.0.1:8080)

Dockerfile.sidecar:
- Copy modules/ directory (was missing, causing build failure)
- Use 0.0.0.0 for container binding (127.0.0.1 is wrong inside containers)
- Remove phantom port 9091 (no separate metrics listener exists)

openclaw-sidecar.md — full honesty rewrite:
- Add status banner: transparent interception is NOT yet implemented
- Document actual sidecar API endpoints (health, detect/injection, execute, metrics)
- Fix Docker Compose to use Dockerfile.sidecar (was using wrong Dockerfile)
- Remove GOVERNANCE_PROXY claim (OpenClaw doesn't natively read this)
- Replace fictional SLO/Grafana sections with real /api/v1/metrics docs
- Add Roadmap section listing what's planned vs shipped

openshell.md:
- Remove references to non-existent shell scripts
- Fix python -m agentmesh.server to python -m agent_os.server
- Add note that sidecar doesn't transparently intercept (must call API)
- Replace pip install agentmesh-platform with Python skill library usage

* fix(ci): fix Rust crate packaging — use workspace root with -p agentmesh

cargo package in a workspace writes .crate files to the workspace root's
target/package/, not the individual crate's directory. The pipeline was
running from the crate subdirectory and couldn't find the output.

Fix: change workingDirectory from packages/agent-mesh/sdks/rust/agentmesh
to packages/agent-mesh/sdks/rust (workspace root) and add -p agentmesh
to all cargo commands to target the specific crate.

* feat: add AGT Lite — zero-config governance in 3 lines, fix broken quickstart (#1044)

Addresses the #1 developer experience criticism: AGT is too complex to start.

New: agent_os.lite — lightweight governance module
- govern() factory: one line to create a governance gate
- check(action): one line to enforce — raises GovernanceViolation or returns True
- check.is_allowed(action): non-raising bool version
- Allow lists, deny lists, regex patterns, content filtering, rate limiting
- Built-in audit trail and stats
- Sub-millisecond evaluation (0.003ms avg, 1000 evals in <100ms)
- Zero dependencies beyond stdlib (re, time, datetime)
- 16 tests passing

Fix: govern_in_60_seconds.py quickstart
- BROKEN: was calling PolicyEvaluator.add_rules() which does not exist
- FIXED: now uses agent_os.lite.govern() which actually works
- Verified end-to-end: script runs and produces correct output

The lite module is for developers who just want basic governance
without learning PolicyEvaluator, YAML, OPA/Rego, trust mesh, etc.
Upgrade to the full stack when you need it.

* feat(ci): enhance weekly security audit with 7 new scan jobs (#1051)

Add comprehensive security checks based on issues found during
the MSRC-111178 security audit and ongoing post-merge reviews:

- Workflow security regression (MSRC-111178 pull_request_target check)
- Expression injection scan (github.event.* in run: blocks)
- Docker security (root containers, wildcard CORS, hardcoded passwords,
  0.0.0.0 bindings)
- XSS and unsafe DOM (innerHTML, eval, yaml.load, shell=True)
- Action SHA pinning compliance
- Version pinning (pyproject.toml upper bounds, Docker :latest tags,
  license field format)
- Dependency confusion with --strict mode (pyproject.toml + package.json)
- Retention days updated to 180 (EU AI Act Art. 26(6))

* feat: add reversibility checker, trust calibration guide, and escalation/reversibility tests (#1061)

Addresses critical review feedback:

1. Rollback/reversibility (agent_os.reversibility)
   - ReversibilityChecker: pre-execution assessment of action reversibility
   - 4 levels: fully_reversible, partially_reversible, irreversible, unknown
   - CompensatingAction: structured undo plans for each action type
   - Built-in rules for 12 common actions (write, deploy, delete, email, etc.)
   - block_irreversible mode for strict environments

2. Trust score calibration guide (docs/security/trust-score-calibration.md)
   - Score component weights (compliance 35%, task 25%, behavior 25%, identity 15%)
   - Decay functions with tier floors
   - Initial score assignments by agent origin
   - Threshold recommendations (conservative/moderate/permissive)
   - Anti-gaming measures and operational playbook

3. Tests: 19 passing (10 escalation + 9 reversibility)

* feat: deployment runtime (Docker/AKS) and shared trust core types (#1062)

agent-runtime: Evolve from thin re-export shim to deployment runtime
- DockerDeployer: container deployment with security hardening
  (cap-drop ALL, no-new-privileges, read-only rootfs)
- KubernetesDeployer: AKS pod deployment with governance sidecars
  (runAsNonRoot, seccompProfile, resource limits)
- GovernanceConfig: policy/trust/audit config injected as env vars
- DeploymentTarget protocol for extensibility (ADC, nono, etc.)
- 24 tests (all subprocess calls mocked)

agent-mesh: Extract shared trust types into agentmesh.trust_types
- TrustScore, AgentProfile, TrustRecord, TrustTracker
- Canonical implementations replacing ~800 lines of duplicated code
  across 6+ integration packages
- 25 tests covering clamping, scoring, history, capabilities

* feat(rust): add execution rings and lifecycle management to Rust SDK

Add two new modules to the agentmesh Rust crate:

- rings.rs: Four-level execution privilege ring model (Admin/Standard/
  Restricted/Sandboxed) with per-agent assignment and per-ring action
  permissions, ported from the Python hypervisor enforcer.

- lifecycle.rs: Eight-state agent lifecycle manager (Provisioning through
  Decommissioned) with validated state transitions and event history,
  matching the lifecycle model used across other SDK languages.

Both modules include comprehensive unit tests and are re-exported from
the crate root. README updated with API tables and usage examples.

* fix: align lotl_prevention_policy.yaml with PolicyDocument schema

The policy file used an incompatible schema format (id, parameter,
regex_match, effect) instead of the expected PolicyDocument fields
(name, condition.field, operator, action). This caused the
validate-policies CI check to fail for all PRs.

Changes:
- id → name
- condition.parameter → condition.field
- operator: regex_match → operator: matches
- action at rule level (shell_exec/file_read) → action: deny
- effect: DENY → removed (redundant with action: deny)
- Added version, name, description, disclaimer at top level

* fix: resolve .NET ESRP signing issues blocking NuGet publish

GitHub Actions (publish.yml):
- Fix broken if-guards on signing steps: env.ESRP_AAD_ID was set in
  step-level env (invisible to if-expressions). Replace with job-level
  ESRP_CONFIGURED env derived from secrets.
- Add missing ESRP_CERT_IDENTIFIER to signing step env blocks.
- Gate the publish step on ESRP_CONFIGURED so unsigned packages are
  never pushed to NuGet.org under the Microsoft.* prefix.
- Make stub signing steps fail-fast (exit 1) instead of silently
  succeeding, preventing unsigned packages from reaching NuGet push.

ADO Pipeline (esrp-publish.yml):
- Add UseDotNet@2 task to Publish_NuGet stage so dotnet nuget push
  has a guaranteed SDK version on the Windows agent.

* fix(docs): fix OpenClaw sidecar demo and add limitations callout (#1163)

The docker-compose example in openclaw-sidecar.md was illustrative only
and did not work — it referenced a non-existent OpenClaw image and lacked
healthchecks. Users were hitting this and getting confused.

Changes:
- Add working demo at demo/openclaw-governed/ with docker-compose.yaml
  that builds and runs the governance sidecar from source
- Replace the inline docker-compose in the doc with a link to the demo
  plus a clearly-labeled reference template for custom deployments
- Add prominent WARNING callout listing known limitations (no native
  OpenClaw integration, no published images, explicit API required)
- Remove stale orphaned curl snippet after the docker-compose block
- Add healthcheck to docker-compose governance-sidecar service
- Fix OpenClaw image reference from ghcr.io/openclaw/openclaw:latest
  to a placeholder users must replace with their own image

The ESRP signing cert lives in the PME (Partner Managed Engineering)
tenant (975f013f), not the Microsoft corporate tenant (72f988bf).

   recommends content policies + model safety layers.

2. Audit logs record attempts, not outcomes: Documents that post-action
   state verification is the user's responsibility today, with hooks planned.

3. Performance honesty: README now notes that <0.1ms is policy-eval only;
   distributed mesh adds 5-50ms. Full breakdown in LIMITATIONS.md.

4. Complexity spectrum: Documents the minimal path (just PolicyEvaluator,
   no mesh/crypto) vs full enterprise stack.

5. Vendor independence: Documents zero cloud dependencies in core,
   standard formats for all state, migration path.

6. Recommended layered defense architecture diagram showing AGT as one
   layer alongside model safety, application logic, and infrastructure.

* fix(openclaw): critical honesty pass — document what works vs what's planned

Server (__main__.py):
- Add --host/--port argparse + env var support (was hardcoded 127.0.0.1:8080)

Dockerfile.sidecar:
- Copy modules/ directory (was missing, causing build failure)
- Use 0.0.0.0 for container binding (127.0.0.1 is wrong inside containers)
- Remove phantom port 9091 (no separate metrics listener exists)

openclaw-sidecar.md — full honesty rewrite:
- Add status banner: transparent interception is NOT yet implemented
- Document actual sidecar API endpoints (health, detect/injection, execute, metrics)
- Fix Docker Compose to use Dockerfile.sidecar (was using wrong Dockerfile)
- Remove GOVERNANCE_PROXY claim (OpenClaw doesn't natively read this)
- Replace fictional SLO/Grafana sections with real /api/v1/metrics docs
- Add Roadmap section listing what's planned vs shipped

openshell.md:
- Remove references to non-existent shell scripts
- Fix python -m agentmesh.server to python -m agent_os.server
- Add note that sidecar doesn't transparently intercept (must call API)
- Replace pip install agentmesh-platform with Python skill library usage

* fix(ci): fix Rust crate packaging — use workspace root with -p agentmesh

cargo package in a workspace writes .crate files to the workspace root's

Fix: change workingDirectory from packages/agent-mesh/sdks/rust/agentmesh
to packages/agent-mesh/sdks/rust (workspace root) and add -p agentmesh
to all cargo commands to target the specific crate.

* fix(ci): correct ESRP NuGet contenttype casing — 'NuGet' not 'Nuget'

ESRP Release rejected 'Nuget' with: 'The value provided for
ReleaseContentType property is invalid.' ErrorCode 2254.

ESRP content types are case-sensitive. Fix: 'Nuget' -> 'NuGet'.

* fix(ci): use EsrpCodeSigning + dotnet push for NuGet (#965)

EsrpRelease@11 does not support NuGet as a contenttype — it's for
PyPI/npm/Maven/crates.io package distribution. NuGet packages must be
signed with EsrpCodeSigning@5 first, then pushed with dotnet nuget push.

New flow:
1. EsrpCodeSigning@5 with NuGetSign + NuGetVerify operations (CP-401405)
2. dotnet nuget push with the signed .nupkg to nuget.org

This matches the standard Microsoft NuGet ESRP signing pattern used by
azure-sdk, dotnet runtime, and other Microsoft OSS projects.

* fix(security): upgrade axios to 1.15.0 - CVE-2026-40175, CVE-2025-62718 (#966)

Critical S360 action items for SFI-ES5.2 1ES Open Source Vulnerabilities.

CVE-2026-40175 (CVSS 9.9): Unrestricted Cloud Metadata Exfiltration
via Header Injection Chain — prototype pollution gadget enables CRLF
injection in HTTP headers, bypassing AWS IMDSv2 session tokens.

CVE-2025-62718: NO_PROXY Bypass via Hostname Normalization — trailing
dots and IPv6 literals skip NO_PROXY matching, enabling SSRF through
attacker-controlled proxy.

Upgraded in 3 packages:
- extensions/copilot: 1.14.0 → 1.15.0
- extensions/cursor:  1.13.5 → 1.15.0
- agent-os-vscode:    1.13.6 → 1.15.0

* fix(ci): resolve ESRP_DOMAIN_TENANT_ID cyclical reference (#967)

The ADO variable ESRP_DOMAIN_TENANT_ID had a cyclical self-reference,
preventing ESRP authentication across ALL publishing stages (PyPI, npm,
NuGet, crates.io).

Fix: Define MICROSOFT_TENANT_ID as a pipeline-level variable with the
well-known Microsoft corporate tenant ID (72f988bf-..., same default
used by ESRP Release action.yml). This is a public value, not a secret.

Also: NuGet publishing requires Microsoft as co-owner of the package
on NuGet.org. See https://aka.ms/Microsoft-NuGet-Compliance

* docs: sync audit redaction status and framing with current code

- Update SOC2 mapping to reflect CredentialRedactor now redacts
  credential-like secrets before audit persistence (API keys, tokens,
  JWTs, connection strings, etc.). Remaining gap: non-credential PII
  (email, phone, addresses) not yet redacted in audit entries.
- Replace 'kernel-level enforcement' with 'policy-layer enforcement'
  in README, OWASP compliance, and architecture overview to match the
  existing 'application-level governance' framing in README Security
  section and LIMITATIONS.md.
- Qualify 10/10 OWASP coverage claim in COMPARISON.md with footnote
  clarifying this means mitigation components exist per risk category,
  not full elimination.
- Update owasp-llm-top10-mapping.md LLM06 row for credential redaction.

Addresses doc/code inconsistencies identified in external review.

* feat: add AGT Lite — zero-config governance in 3 lines, fix broken quickstart (#1044)

Addresses the #1 developer experience criticism: AGT is too complex to start.

New: agent_os.lite — lightweight governance module
- govern() factory: one line to create a governance gate
- check(action): one line to enforce — raises GovernanceViolation or returns True
- check.is_allowed(action): non-raising bool version
- Allow lists, deny lists, regex patterns, content filtering, rate limiting
- Built-in audit trail and stats
- Sub-millisecond evaluation (0.003ms avg, 1000 evals in <100ms)
- Zero dependencies beyond stdlib (re, time, datetime)
- 16 tests passing

Fix: govern_in_60_seconds.py quickstart
- BROKEN: was calling PolicyEvaluator.add_rules() which does not exist
- FIXED: now uses agent_os.lite.govern() which actually works
- Verified end-to-end: script runs and produces correct output

The lite module is for developers who just want basic governance
without learning PolicyEvaluator, YAML, OPA/Rego, trust mesh, etc.
Upgrade to the full stack when you need it.

- Docker security (root containers, wildcard CORS, hardcoded passwords,
  0.0.0.0 bindings)
- XSS and unsafe DOM (innerHTML, eval, yaml.load, shell=True)
- Action SHA pinning compliance
- Version pinning (pyproject.toml upper bounds, Docker :latest tags,
  license field format)
- Dependency confusion with --strict mode (pyproject.toml + package.json)
- Retention days updated to 180 (EU AI Act Art. 26(6))

   - 4 levels: fully_reversible, partially_reversible, irreversible, unknown
   - CompensatingAction: structured undo plans for each action type
   - Built-in rules for 12 common actions (write, deploy, delete, email, etc.)
   - block_irreversible mode for strict environments

2. Trust score calibration guide (docs/security/trust-score-calibration.md)
   - Score component weights (compliance 35%, task 25%, behavior 25%, identity 15%)
   - Decay functions with tier floors
   - Initial score assignments by agent origin
   - Threshold recommendations (conservative/moderate/permissive)
   - Anti-gaming measures and operational playbook

3. Tests: 19 passing (10 escalation + 9 reversibility)

* fix: align lotl_prevention_policy.yaml with PolicyDocument schema

The policy file used an incompatible schema format (id, parameter,
regex_match, effect) instead of the expected PolicyDocument fields
(name, condition.field, operator, action). This caused the
validate-policies CI check to fail for all PRs.

Changes:
- id → name
- condition.parameter → condition.field
- operator: regex_match → operator: matches
- action at rule level (shell_exec/file_read) → action: deny
- effect: DENY → removed (redundant with action: deny)
- Added version, name, description, disclaimer at top level

* fix: resolve .NET ESRP signing issues blocking NuGet publish

GitHub Actions (publish.yml):
- Fix broken if-guards on signing steps: env.ESRP_AAD_ID was set in
  step-level env (invisible to if-expressions). Replace with job-level
  ESRP_CONFIGURED env derived from secrets.
- Add missing ESRP_CERT_IDENTIFIER to signing step env blocks.
- Gate the publish step on ESRP_CONFIGURED so unsigned packages are
  never pushed to NuGet.org under the Microsoft.* prefix.
- Make stub signing steps fail-fast (exit 1) instead of silently
  succeeding, preventing unsigned packages from reaching NuGet push.

ADO Pipeline (esrp-publish.yml):
- Add UseDotNet@2 task to Publish_NuGet stage so dotnet nuget push
  has a guaranteed SDK version on the Windows agent.

- Replace the inline docker-compose in the doc with a link to the demo
  plus a clearly-labeled reference template for custom deployments
- Add prominent WARNING callout listing known limitations (no native
  OpenClaw integration, no published images, explicit API required)
- Remove stale orphaned curl snippet after the docker-compose block
- Add healthcheck to docker-compose governance-sidecar service
- Fix OpenClaw image reference from ghcr.io/openclaw/openclaw:latest
  to a placeholder users must replace with their own image

Add three new sections to LIMITATIONS.md addressing gaps identified in
public criticism and external security analysis:

- §10 Physical AI and Embodied Agent Governance: documents that AGT
  governs software agents not physical actuators, with mitigations
- §11 Streaming Data and Real-Time Assurance: documents that AGT
  evaluates per-action not continuously over data streams
- §12 DID Method Inconsistency Across SDKs: documents the did:mesh
  vs did:agentmesh split with migration plan for v4.0

Update THREAT_MODEL.md residual risks to reference all three new
limitation sections.

* fix!: standardize DID method to did:agentmesh across all SDKs (#12)

* fix!: standardize DID method to did:agentmesh across all SDKs

BREAKING CHANGE: All agent DIDs now use the did:agentmesh: prefix.
The legacy did:mesh: prefix used by Python and .NET has been migrated
to match the did:agentmesh: convention already used by TypeScript,
Rust, and Go SDKs.

Changes:
- Python: agent_id.py, delegation.py, entra.py, all integrations
- .NET: AgentIdentity.cs, Jwk.cs, GovernanceKernel.cs, all tests
- Docs: README, tutorials, identity docs, FAQ, compliance docs
- Tests: all test fixtures updated across Python, .NET, TS, VSCode
- Version bump: 3.1.0 → 3.2.0 (.NET, Python agent-mesh, TypeScript)

Migration: replace did:mesh: with did:agentmesh: in your policies,
identity registries, and agent configurations.

* docs: add LIMITATIONS.md - honest design boundaries and layered defense (#953)

Addresses valid external critique of AGT's architectural blind spots:

1. Action vs Intent: AGT governs individual actions, not reasoning or
   action sequences. Documents the compound-action gap explicitly and
   recommends content policies + model safety layers.

2. Audit logs record attempts, not outcomes: Documents that post-action
   state verification is the user's responsibility today, with hooks planned.

3. Performance honesty: README now notes that <0.1ms is policy-eval only;
   distributed mesh adds 5-50ms. Full breakdown in LIMITATIONS.md.

4. Complexity spectrum: Documents the minimal path (just PolicyEvaluator,
   no mesh/crypto) vs full enterprise stack.

5. Vendor independence: Documents zero cloud dependencies in core,
   standard formats for all state, migration path.

6. Recommended layered defense architecture diagram showing AGT as one
   layer alongside model safety, application logic, and infrastructure.

Co-authored-by: Copilot <[email protected]>

* fix(ci): fix Rust crate packaging - use workspace root with -p agentmesh (#959)

* fix(openclaw): critical honesty pass — document what works vs what's planned

Server (__main__.py):
- Add --host/--port argparse + env var support (was hardcoded 127.0.0.1:8080)

Dockerfile.sidecar:
- Copy modules/ directory (was missing, causing build failure)
- Use 0.0.0.0 for container binding (127.0.0.1 is wrong inside containers)
- Remove phantom port 9091 (no separate metrics listener exists)

openclaw-sidecar.md — full honesty rewrite:
- Add status banner: transparent interception is NOT yet implemented
- Document actual sidecar API endpoints (health, detect/injection, execute, metrics)
- Fix Docker Compose to use Dockerfile.sidecar (was using wrong Dockerfile)
- Remove GOVERNANCE_PROXY claim (OpenClaw doesn't natively read this)
- Replace fictional SLO/Grafana sections with real /api/v1/metrics docs
- Add Roadmap section listing what's planned vs shipped

openshell.md:
- Remove references to non-existent shell scripts
- Fix python -m agentmesh.server to python -m agent_os.server
- Add note that sidecar doesn't transparently intercept (must call API)
- Replace pip install agentmesh-platform with Python skill library usage

* fix(ci): fix Rust crate packaging — use workspace root with -p agentmesh

cargo package in a workspace writes .crate files to the workspace root's
target/package/, not the individual crate's directory. The pipeline was
running from the crate subdirectory and couldn't find the output.

Fix: change workingDirectory from packages/agent-mesh/sdks/rust/agentmesh
to packages/agent-mesh/sdks/rust (workspace root) and add -p agentmesh
to all cargo commands to target the specific crate.

Three gaps found during publish verification:

1. PyPI: add agentmesh-marketplace (8th package, was missing from matrix)
2. Rust: build+publish both workspace crates (agentmesh + agentmesh-mcp)
   - Changed from single-crate to workspace build (--workspace)
   - Package loop builds both .crate files
   - Renamed artifact from 'rust-agentmesh' to 'rust-crates'
3. Go: add 'v' prefix to version in doc.go (3.1.0 → v3.1.0)
   - Go module tags require semver with v prefix
   - Pipeline grep expects '// Version: v...' format

* fix(ci): use EsrpCodeSigning + dotnet push for NuGet (#965)

EsrpRelease@11 does not support NuGet as a contenttype — it's for
PyPI/npm/Maven/crates.io package distribution. NuGet packages must be
signed with EsrpCodeSigning@5 first, then pushed with dotnet nuget push.

New flow:
1. EsrpCodeSigning@5 with NuGetSign + NuGetVerify operations (CP-401405)
2. dotnet nuget push with the signed .nupkg to nuget.org

This matches the standard Microsoft NuGet ESRP signing pattern used by
azure-sdk, dotnet runtime, and other Microsoft OSS projects.

* fix(security): upgrade axios to 1.15.0 - CVE-2026-40175, CVE-2025-62718 (#966)

Critical S360 action items for SFI-ES5.2 1ES Open Source Vulnerabilities.

CVE-2026-40175 (CVSS 9.9): Unrestricted Cloud Metadata Exfiltration
via Header Injection Chain — prototype pollution gadget enables CRLF
injection in HTTP headers, bypassing AWS IMDSv2 session tokens.

CVE-2025-62718: NO_PROXY Bypass via Hostname Normalization — trailing
dots and IPv6 literals skip NO_PROXY matching, enabling SSRF through
attacker-controlled proxy.

Upgraded in 3 packages:
- extensions/copilot: 1.14.0 → 1.15.0
- extensions/cursor:  1.13.5 → 1.15.0
- agent-os-vscode:    1.13.6 → 1.15.0

* fix(ci): resolve ESRP_DOMAIN_TENANT_ID cyclical reference (#967)

The ADO variable ESRP_DOMAIN_TENANT_ID had a cyclical self-reference,
preventing ESRP authentication across ALL publishing stages (PyPI, npm,
NuGet, crates.io).

Fix: Define MICROSOFT_TENANT_ID as a pipeline-level variable with the
well-known Microsoft corporate tenant ID (72f988bf-..., same default
used by ESRP Release action.yml). This is a public value, not a secret.

Also: NuGet publishing requires Microsoft as co-owner of the package
on NuGet.org. See https://aka.ms/Microsoft-NuGet-Compliance

* docs: sync audit redaction status and framing with current code

- Update SOC2 mapping to reflect CredentialRedactor now redacts
  credential-like secrets before audit persistence (API keys, tokens,
  JWTs, connection strings, etc.). Remaining gap: non-credential PII
  (email, phone, addresses) not yet redacted in audit entries.
- Replace 'kernel-level enforcement' with 'policy-layer enforcement'
  in README, OWASP compliance, and architecture overview to match the
  existing 'application-level governance' framing in README Security
  section and LIMITATIONS.md.
- Qualify 10/10 OWASP coverage claim in COMPARISON.md with footnote
  clarifying this means mitigation components exist per risk category,
  not full elimination.
- Update owasp-llm-top10-mapping.md LLM06 row for credential redaction.

Addresses doc/code inconsistencies identified in external review.

* feat: add AGT Lite — zero-config governance in 3 lines, fix broken quickstart (#1044)

Addresses the #1 developer experience criticism: AGT is too complex to start.

New: agent_os.lite — lightweight governance module
- govern() factory: one line to create a governance gate
- check(action): one line to enforce — raises GovernanceViolation or returns True
- check.is_allowed(action): non-raising bool version
- Allow lists, deny lists, regex patterns, content filtering, rate limiting
- Built-in audit trail and stats
- Sub-millisecond evaluation (0.003ms avg, 1000 evals in <100ms)
- Zero dependencies beyond stdlib (re, time, datetime)
- 16 tests passing

Fix: govern_in_60_seconds.py quickstart
- BROKEN: was calling PolicyEvaluator.add_rules() which does not exist
- FIXED: now uses agent_os.lite.govern() which actually works
- Verified end-to-end: script runs and produces correct output

The lite module is for developers who just want basic governance
without learning PolicyEvaluator, YAML, OPA/Rego, trust mesh, etc.
Upgrade to the full stack when you need it.

   - 4 levels: fully_reversible, partially_reversible, irreversible, unknown
   - CompensatingAction: structured undo plans for each action type
   - Built-in rules for 12 common actions (write, deploy, delete, email, etc.)
   - block_irreversible mode for strict environments

2. Trust score calibration guide (docs/security/trust-score-calibration.md)
   - Score component weights (compliance 35%, task 25%, behavior 25%, identity 15%)
   - Decay functions with tier floors
   - Initial score assignments by agent origin
   - Threshold recommendations (conservative/moderate/permissive)
   - Anti-gaming measures and operational playbook

3. Tests: 19 passing (10 escalation + 9 reversibility)

* fix: align lotl_prevention_policy.yaml with PolicyDocument schema

The policy file used an incompatible schema format (id, parameter,
regex_match, effect) instead of the expected PolicyDocument fields
(name, condition.field, operator, action). This caused the
validate-policies CI check to fail for all PRs.

Changes:
- id → name
- condition.parameter → condition.field
- operator: regex_match → operator: matches
- action at rule level (shell_exec/file_read) → action: deny
- effect: DENY → removed (redundant with action: deny)
- Added version, name, description, disclaimer at top level

* fix: resolve .NET ESRP signing issues blocking NuGet publish

GitHub Actions (publish.yml):
- Fix broken if-guards on signing steps: env.ESRP_AAD_ID was set in
  step-level env (invisible to if-expressions). Replace with job-level
  ESRP_CONFIGURED env derived from secrets.
- Add missing ESRP_CERT_IDENTIFIER to signing step env blocks.
- Gate the publish step on ESRP_CONFIGURED so unsigned packages are
  never pushed to NuGet.org under the Microsoft.* prefix.
- Make stub signing steps fail-fast (exit 1) instead of silently
  succeeding, preventing unsigned packages from reaching NuGet push.

ADO Pipeline (esrp-publish.yml):
- Add UseDotNet@2 task to Publish_NuGet stage so dotnet nuget push
  has a guaranteed SDK version on the Windows agent.

Add three new sections to LIMITATIONS.md addressing gaps identified in
public criticism and external security analysis:

- §10 Physical AI and Embodied Agent Governance: documents that AGT
  governs software agents not physical actuators, with mitigations
- §11 Streaming Data and Real-Time Assurance: documents that AGT
  evaluates per-action not continuously over data streams
- §12 DID Method Inconsistency Across SDKs: documents the did:mesh

* fix!: standardize DID method to did:agentmesh across all SDKs (#12)

* fix!: standardize DID method to did:agentmesh across all SDKs

BREAKING CHANGE: All agent DIDs now use the did:agentmesh: prefix.
The legacy did:mesh: prefix used by Python and .NET has been migrated
to match the did:agentmesh: convention already used by TypeScript,
Rust, and Go SDKs.

Changes:
- Python: agent_id.py, delegation.py, entra.py, all integrations
- .NET: AgentIdentity.cs, Jwk.cs, GovernanceKernel.cs, all tests
- Docs: README, tutorials, identity docs, FAQ, compliance docs
- Tests: all test fixtures updated across Python, .NET, TS, VSCode
- Version bump: 3.1.0 → 3.2.0 (.NET, Python agent-mesh, TypeScript)

Migration: replace did:mesh: with did:agentmesh: in your policies,
identity registries, and agent configurations.

* feat: add AgentMesh component container images and GHCR publishing

Add FastAPI server entrypoints for all four AgentMesh components:
- trust-engine (port 8443): Agent identity verification, IATP handshakes
- policy-server (port 8444): Governance policy evaluation from YAML/JSON
- audit-collector (port 8445): Merkle-chained audit logging with persistence
- api-gateway (port 8446): Reverse proxy with per-agent rate limiting

Infrastructure:
- Single Dockerfile with COMPONENT build arg (non-root, tini, health checks)
- GitHub Actions workflow for GHCR publishing (multi-arch amd64/arm64)
- Helm chart updated to reference ghcr.io/microsoft/agentmesh/* images
- 28 integration tests covering all server endpoints

Resolves the missing container images that blocked full AgentMesh cluster
deployment (images were referenced in Helm chart but never built).

* feat(dotnet): add MCP security namespace with scanner, gateway, redactor, and sanitizer

Add AgentGovernance.Mcp namespace implementing full MCP security parity with
TypeScript and Rust SDKs:

- McpSecurityScanner: tool poisoning, typosquatting, hidden instructions,
  rug pull, schema abuse, cross-server attack, and description injection detection
- McpCredentialRedactor: regex-based redaction of API keys, bearer tokens,
  connection strings, and secret assignments
- McpResponseSanitizer: response scanning for prompt injection tags,
  imperative phrasing, credential leakage, and exfiltration URLs

* docs: add Entra Agent ID bridge tutorial (Tutorial 31) (#10)

* fix(pipeline): run NuGet ESRP signing on Windows agent (#1022)

The EsrpCodeSigning@5 task constructs internal paths (batchSignPolicyFile,
ciPolicyFile) using Windows-style backslashes. Running on ubuntu-latest
produced garbled mixed paths like '/home/vsts/work/1/s/src\myapp\'.

Changes:
- Add per-job pool override: PublishNuGet runs on windows-latest
- Convert FolderPath and all shell commands to Windows paths
- Replace bash scripts with PowerShell for the Windows agent
- PyPI and npm stages remain on ubuntu-latest (unchanged)
- Add comment to delete orphaned ESRP_DOMAIN_TENANT_ID ADO variable

PRs #1017 and #1020 were squash-merged as empty commits (0 file
changes). This commit re-applies the intended documentation updates.

From PR #1017 (critic gaps):
- LIMITATIONS.md: add sections 7 (knowledge governance gap), 8
  (credential persistence gap), 9 (initialization bypass risk)
- LIMITATIONS.md: add knowledge governance and enforcement infra
  rows to 'What AGT Is Not' table
- THREAT_MODEL.md: add knowledge flow and credential persistence
  to residual risks, add configuration bypass vectors table,
  remove stale '10/10' qualifier

From PR #1020 (SOC2 resolved gaps):
- soc2-mapping.md: mark kill switch as resolved (saga handoff
  implemented in kill_switch.py:69-178)
- soc2-mapping.md: mark DeltaEngine verify_chain() as resolved
  (SHA-256 chain verification in delta.py:67-127)

* docs: update SDK feature matrix after parity pass (#950)

Reflects new capabilities added in PRs #947 (TS), .NET, Rust, Go:
- TypeScript: MCP security scanner + lifecycle management (was 5/14, now 7/14)
- .NET: Kill switch + lifecycle management (was 8/14, now 10/14)
- Rust: Execution rings + lifecycle management (was 6/14, now 8/14)
- Go: MCP security + rings + lifecycle (was 4/14, now 7/14)

All SDKs now have lifecycle management. Core governance (policy, identity,
trust, audit) + lifecycle = 5 primitives shared across all 5 languages.

* docs: add LIMITATIONS.md - honest design boundaries and layered defense (#953)

Addresses valid external critique of AGT's architectural blind spots:

1. Action vs Intent: AGT governs individual actions, not reasoning or
   action sequences. Documents the compound-action gap explicitly and
   recommends content policies + model safety layers.

2. Audit logs record attempts, not outcomes: Documents that post-action
   state verification is the user's responsibility today, with hooks planned.

3. Performance honesty: README now notes that <0.1ms is policy-eval only;
   distributed mesh adds 5-50ms. Full breakdown in LIMITATIONS.md.

4. Complexity spectrum: Documents the minimal path (just PolicyEvaluator,
   no mesh/crypto) vs full enterprise stack.

5. Vendor independence: Documents zero cloud dependencies in core,
   standard formats for all state, migration path.

6. Recommended layered defense architecture diagram showing AGT as one
   layer alongside model safety, application logic, and infrastructure.

* fix(ci): fix Rust crate packaging - use workspace root with -p agentmesh (#959)

* fix(openclaw): critical honesty pass — document what works vs what's planned

Server (__main__.py):
- Add --host/--port argparse + env var support (was hardcoded 127.0.0.1:8080)

Dockerfile.sidecar:
- Copy modules/ directory (was missing, causing build failure)
- Use 0.0.0.0 for container binding (127.0.0.1 is wrong inside containers)
- Remove phantom port 9091 (no separate metrics listener exists)

openclaw-sidecar.md — full honesty rewrite:
- Add status banner: transparent interception is NOT yet implemented
- Document actual sidecar API endpoints (health, detect/injection, execute, metrics)
- Fix Docker Compose to use Dockerfile.sidecar (was using wrong Dockerfile)
- Remove GOVERNANCE_PROXY claim (OpenClaw doesn't natively read this)
- Replace fictional SLO/Grafana sections with real /api/v1/metrics docs
- Add Roadmap section listing what's planned vs shipped

openshell.md:
- Remove references to non-existent shell scripts
- Fix python -m agentmesh.server to python -m agent_os.server
- Add note that sidecar doesn't transparently intercept (must call API)
- Replace pip install agentmesh-platform with Python skill library usage

* fix(ci): fix Rust crate packaging — use workspace root with -p agentmesh

cargo package in a workspace writes .crate files to the workspace root's
target/package/, not the individual crate's directory. The pipeline was
running from the crate subdirectory and couldn't find the output.

Fix: change workingDirectory from packages/agent-mesh/sdks/rust/agentmesh
to packages/agent-mesh/sdks/rust (workspace root) and add -p agentmesh
to all cargo commands to target the specific crate.

* fix(ci): correct ESRP NuGet contenttype casing (#962)

* fix(ci): add missing packages to ESRP pipeline and fix Go version tag

Three gaps found during publish verification:

1. PyPI: add agentmesh-marketplace (8th package, was missing from matrix)
2. Rust: build+publish both workspace crates (agentmesh + agentmesh-mcp)
   - Changed from single-crate to workspace build (--workspace)
   - Package loop builds both .crate files
   - Renamed artifact from 'rust-agentmesh' to 'rust-crates'
3. Go: add 'v' prefix to version in doc.go (3.1.0 → v3.1.0)
   - Go module tags require semver with v prefix
   - Pipeline grep expects '// Version: v...' format

* fix(ci): use EsrpCodeSigning + dotnet push for NuGet (#965)

EsrpRelease@11 does not support NuGet as a contenttype — it's for
PyPI/npm/Maven/crates.io package distribution. NuGet packages must be
signed with EsrpCodeSigning@5 first, then pushed with dotnet nuget push.

New flow:
1. EsrpCodeSigning@5 with NuGetSign + NuGetVerify operations (CP-401405)
2. dotnet nuget push with the signed .nupkg to nuget.org

This matches the standard Microsoft NuGet ESRP signing pattern used by
azure-sdk, dotnet runtime, and other Microsoft OSS projects.

* fix(security): upgrade axios to 1.15.0 - CVE-2026-40175, CVE-2025-62718 (#966)

Critical S360 action items for SFI-ES5.2 1ES Open Source Vulnerabilities.

CVE-2026-40175 (CVSS 9.9): Unrestricted Cloud Metadata Exfiltration
via Header Injection Chain — prototype pollution gadget enables CRLF
injection in HTTP headers, bypassing AWS IMDSv2 session tokens.

CVE-2025-62718: NO_PROXY Bypass via Hostname Normalization — trailing
dots and IPv6 literals skip NO_PROXY matching, enabling SSRF through
attacker-controlled proxy.

Upgraded in 3 packages:
- extensions/copilot: 1.14.0 → 1.15.0
- extensions/cursor:  1.13.5 → 1.15.0
- agent-os-vscode:    1.13.6 → 1.15.0

* fix(ci): resolve ESRP_DOMAIN_TENANT_ID cyclical reference (#967)

The ADO variable ESRP_DOMAIN_TENANT_ID had a cyclical self-reference,
preventing ESRP authentication across ALL publishing stages (PyPI, npm,
NuGet, crates.io).

Fix: Define MICROSOFT_TENANT_ID as a pipeline-level variable with the
well-known Microsoft corporate tenant ID (72f988bf-..., same default
used by ESRP Release action.yml). This is a public value, not a secret.

Also: NuGet publishing requires Microsoft as co-owner of the package
on NuGet.org. See https://aka.ms/Microsoft-NuGet-Compliance

* docs: sync audit redaction status and framing with current code

- Update SOC2 mapping to reflect CredentialRedactor now redacts
  credential-like secrets before audit persistence (API keys, tokens,
  JWTs, connection strings, etc.). Remaining gap: non-credential PII
  (email, phone, addresses) not yet redacted in audit entries.
- Replace 'kernel-level enforcement' with 'policy-layer enforcement'
  in README, OWASP compliance, and architecture overview to match the
  existing 'application-level governance' framing in README Security
  section and LIMITATIONS.md.
- Qualify 10/10 OWASP coverage claim in COMPARISON.md with footnote
  clarifying this means mitigation components exist per risk category,
  not full elimination.
- Update owasp-llm-top10-mapping.md LLM06 row for credential redaction.

Addresses doc/code inconsistencies identified in external review.

* feat: add AGT Lite — zero-config governance in 3 lines, fix broken quickstart (#1044)

Addresses the #1 developer experience criticism: AGT is too complex to start.

New: agent_os.lite — lightweight governance module
- govern() factory: one line to create a governance gate
- check(action): one line to enforce — raises GovernanceViolation or returns True
- check.is_allowed(action): non-raising bool version
- Allow lists, deny lists, regex patterns, content filtering, rate limiting
- Built-in audit trail and stats
- Sub-millisecond evaluation (0.003ms avg, 1000 evals in <100ms)
- Zero dependencies beyond stdlib (re, time, datetime)
- 16 tests passing

Fix: govern_in_60_seconds.py quickstart
- BROKEN: was calling PolicyEvaluator.add_rules() which does not exist
- FIXED: now uses agent_os.lite.govern() which actually works
- Verified end-to-end: script runs and produces correct output

The lite module is for developers who just want basic governance
without learning PolicyEvaluator, YAML, OPA/Rego, trust mesh, etc.
Upgrade to the full stack when you need it.

* feat: add reversibility checker, trust calibration guide, and escalation/reversibility tests (#1061)

Addresses critical review feedback:

1. Rollback/reversibility (agent_os.reversibility)
   - ReversibilityChecker: pre-execution assessment of action reversibility
   - 4 levels: fully_reversible, partially_reversible, irreversible, unknown
   - CompensatingAction: structured undo plans for each action type
   - Built-in rules for 12 common actions (write, deploy, delete, email, etc.)
   - block_irreversible mode for strict environments

2. Trust score calibration guide (docs/security/trust-score-calibration.md)
   - Score component weights (compliance 35%, task 25%, behavior 25%, identity 15%)
   - Decay functions with tier floors
   - Initial score assignments by agent origin
   - Threshold recommendations (conservative/moderate/permissive)
   - Anti-gaming measures and operational playbook

3. Tests: 19 passing (10 escalation + 9 reversibility)

* fix: align lotl_prevention_policy.yaml with PolicyDocument schema

The policy file used an incompatible schema format (id, parameter,
regex_match, effect) instead of the expected PolicyDocument fields
(name, condition.field, operator, action). This caused the
validate-policies CI check to fail for all PRs.

Changes:
- id → name
- condition.parameter → condition.field
- operator: regex_match → operator: matches
- action at rule level (shell_exec/file_read) → action: deny
- effect: DENY → removed (redundant with action: deny)
- Added version, name, description, disclaimer at top level

* fix: resolve .NET ESRP signing issues blocking NuGet publish

GitHub Actions (publish.yml):
- Fix broken if-guards on signing steps: env.ESRP_AAD_ID was set in
  step-level env (invisible to if-expressions). Replace with job-level
  ESRP_CONFIGURED env derived from secrets.
- Add missing ESRP_CERT_IDENTIFIER to signing step env blocks.
- Gate the publish step on ESRP_CONFIGURED so unsigned packages are
  never pushed to NuGet.org under the Microsoft.* prefix.
- Make stub signing steps fail-fast (exit 1) instead of silently
  succeeding, preventing unsigned packages from reaching NuGet push.

ADO Pipeline (esrp-publish.yml):
- Add UseDotNet@2 task to Publish_NuGet stage so dotnet nuget push
  has a guaranteed SDK version on the Windows agent.

* fix(docs): fix OpenClaw sidecar demo and add limitations callout (#1163)

The docker-compose example in openclaw-sidecar.md was illustrative only
and did not work — it referenced a non-existent OpenClaw image and lacked
healthchecks. Users were hitting this and getting confused.

Changes:
- Add working demo at demo/openclaw-governed/ with docker-compose.yaml
  that builds and runs the governance sidecar from source
- Replace the inline docker-compose in the doc with a link to the demo
  plus a clearly-labeled reference template for custom deployments
- Add prominent WARNING callout listing known limitations (no native
  OpenClaw integration, no published images, explicit API required)
- Remove stale orphaned curl snippet after the docker-compose block
- Add healthcheck to docker-compose governance-sidecar service
- Fix OpenClaw image reference from ghcr.io/openclaw/openclaw:latest
  to a placeholder users must replace with their own image

* fix(ci): use PME tenant ID for ESRP cert signing

The ESRP signing cert lives in the PME (Partner Managed Engineering)
tenant (975f013f), not the Microsoft corporate tenant (72f988bf).
Using the wrong tenant ID causes ESRP signing to fail when looking
up the cert.

* docs: address external critic gaps in limitations and threat model (#11)

Add three new sections to LIMITATIONS.md addressing gaps identified in
public criticism and external security analysis:

- §10 Physical AI and Embodied Agent Governance: documents that AGT
  governs software agents not physical actuators, with mitigations
- §11 Streaming Data and Real-Time Assurance: documents that AGT
  evaluates per-action not continuously over data streams
- §12 DID Method Inconsistency Across SDKs: documents the did:mesh
  vs did:agentmesh split with migration plan for v4.0

Update THREAT_MODEL.md residual risks to reference all three new
limitation sections.

* fix!: standardize DID method to did:agentmesh across all SDKs (#12)

* fix!: standardize DID method to did:agentmesh across all SDKs

BREAKING CHANGE: All agent DIDs now use the did:agentmesh: prefix.
The legacy did:mesh: prefix used by Python and .NET has been migrated
to match the did:agentmesh: convention already used by TypeScript,
Rust, and Go SDKs.

Changes:
- Python: agent_id.py, delegation.py, entra.py, all integrations
- .NET: AgentIdentity.cs, Jwk.cs, GovernanceKernel.cs, all tests
- Docs: README, tutorials, identity docs, FAQ, compliance docs
- Tests: all test fixtures updated across Python, .NET, TS, VSCode
- Version bump: 3.1.0 → 3.2.0 (.NET, Python agent-mesh, TypeScript)

Migration: replace did:mesh: with did:agentmesh: in your policies,
identity registries, and agent configurations.

* docs: add Q11-Q13 to FAQ — AGT scope, Agent 365, and DLP comparison

Adds three new customer Q&As:
- Q11: Is AGT for Foundry agents or any agent type? (any)
- Q12: Relationship between AGT and Agent 365 (different layers)
- Q13: How is AGT different from DLP/communication compliance
  (content vs action governance)
