# Security Compliance Review

**Session ID**: `phase25-session09-documentation-validation-release` **Phase**: 25 - Hermes Mission Control Activation **Created**: 2026-06-08 19:12 **Last Updated**: 2026-06-08 21:00 **Status**: Complete; Ready for Validate

***

## Review Scope

This review covers documentation and validation evidence for the shipped Mission Control surface. It does not introduce new product code, endpoints, schema fields, third-party integrations, or local execution paths.

Reviewed surfaces:

* Hermes and Claude Code Mission Control documentation.
* AI OS mission read envelope and admin write endpoint documentation.
* Admin-gated create, optimize, commit, tick, clear, and set-active behavior.
* Authorized import and commit snippets.
* Token redaction and bounded error handling.
* Demo/live separation and private-artifact hygiene.

## Security Posture Checklist

| Area                       | Status | Evidence                                                                                                                                               |
| -------------------------- | ------ | ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ |
| Admin gates                | PASS   | `requirePreflight()` checks method, loopback, `X-Claude-OS-Token`, and `HERMES_DASHBOARD_ADMIN=1`; docs record the same boundary.                      |
| Loopback-only writes       | PASS   | Admin bridge write handlers call `requirePreflight()` before mission mutation.                                                                         |
| Per-run token requirement  | PASS   | Hook sends `X-Claude-OS-Token`; bridge rejects invalid or missing token with `invalid_token`.                                                          |
| Non-demo write requirement | PASS   | Hermes and Claude Code routes disable admin hook execution in demo mode; Mission Control `canWrite()` blocks demo writes.                              |
| Hook-mediated writes       | PASS   | Mission Control calls `useHermesAdmin().missions` for create, optimize, commit, tick, clear, and set-active.                                           |
| Schema-validated payloads  | PASS   | Bridge normalizes mission candidates to `schema_version: 1`; read/admin parsers reject malformed mission payloads.                                     |
| Redacted failures          | PASS   | Bridge returns bounded error codes; UI `boundedError()` redacts auth headers, local paths, and token-shaped strings.                                   |
| Authorized snippets        | PASS   | Planning/import flow asks agents to return mission JSON for operator review; commit happens only through admin-gated `commitMission`.                  |
| Set-active pointer writes  | PASS   | Bridge validates archived target, requires `reactivate` when replacing another active mission, preserves mission documents, and updates only `active`. |
| Third-party transfer       | PASS   | Session changed documentation and security posture only; no external API, credential, or collection path was added.                                    |
| Private artifacts          | PASS   | `bun run runtime:check-private`, `git diff --check`, final git status review, and ASCII/LF validation passed.                                          |

## Blocker Status

| Blocker                         | Status | Notes                                                                                           |
| ------------------------------- | ------ | ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- |
| Source contract mismatch        | None   | Hooks, bridge handlers, parsers, tests, and docs reconcile.                                     |
| Missing admin gate              | None   | All mission write handlers retain loopback, token, admin, and non-production gate requirements. |
| Unredacted browser failure path | None   | Existing source and tests cover token/auth/local-path redaction.                                |
| New third-party transfer        | None   | No new external API or transfer path was introduced.                                            |
| Command validation              | None   | Full validation commands completed in T018-T021; no validation blocker remains.                 |

## Residual Risks

* Live destructive smoke testing against a real default Hermes home was not run. If manual live testing is required, use an isolated temporary `HERMES_HOME` and record only sanitized paths.
* Existing Mission Control writes persist local mission state under the operator's Hermes home by design; deletion guidance is to remove `missions.json` under the active Hermes home.

***

# Agent Instructions
This documentation is published with GitBook. GitBook is the documentation platform designed so that both humans and AI agents can read, navigate, and reason over technical content effectively. Learn more at gitbook.com.

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the current page URL with the `ask` query parameter, and the optional `goal` query parameter:

```
GET https://ai-os-and-trend-finder.gitbook.io/ai-os-and-trend-finder-docs/.spec_system/archive/sessions/phase25-session09-documentation-validation-release/security-compliance.md?ask=<question>&goal=<endgoal>
```

`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is optional and describes the broader end goal you are ultimately trying to accomplish on behalf of the user. GitBook uses it to tailor the answer towards what is most useful for that goal.

The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.

Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
