# Security & Compliance Report

**Session ID**: `phase41-session02-hermes-bridge-status` **Reviewed**: 2026-07-03 **Result**: PASS

## Scope

**Files reviewed** (session-touched files):

* `scripts/lib/hermes-admin-bridge.ts` - Hermes admin status and write preflight contract.
* `src/lib/hermes-admin-types.ts` - Browser parser-owned Hermes admin contract.
* `scripts/lib/hermes-dev-bridge.ts` - Sensitive-read token gate owner.
* `scripts/lib/__tests__/hermes-admin-bridge.test.ts` - Admin status and preflight regressions.
* `src/lib/__tests__/hermes-admin-types.test.ts` - Parser contract regressions.
* `scripts/lib/__tests__/hermes-dev-bridge.test.ts` - Sensitive-read token regressions.
* `tests/e2e/fixtures/hermes-mission-control.ts` - Safe Hermes status fixture payloads.
* `src/hooks/__tests__/use-hermes-admin.test.tsx` - Hook fixture alignment.
* `src/routes/__tests__/agents.test.tsx` - Route fixture alignment.
* `src/components/hermes/__tests__/hermes-documents-gallery.test.tsx` - Component fixture alignment.
* `src/components/hermes/__tests__/hermes-mission-control.test.tsx` - Component fixture alignment.
* `src/components/hermes/__tests__/hermes-sections.test.tsx` - Component fixture alignment.
* `src/components/hermes/chat/__tests__/hermes-chat-tab.test.tsx` - Component fixture alignment.
* `src/components/hermes/intelligence/__tests__/intelligence-portal.test.tsx` - Component fixture alignment.
* `src/components/hermes/ministry/__tests__/ministry-builder.test.tsx` - Component fixture alignment.
* `src/components/knowledge-graph/__tests__/knowledge-graph-grounded-chat.test.tsx` - Component fixture alignment.
* `.spec_system/audit/known-issues.md` - Formatter-only Markdown repair.
* `.spec_system/state.json` - Spec workflow state.
* `.spec_system/specs/phase41-session02-hermes-bridge-status/spec.md` - Session spec.
* `.spec_system/specs/phase41-session02-hermes-bridge-status/tasks.md` - Task checklist.
* `.spec_system/specs/phase41-session02-hermes-bridge-status/implementation-notes.md` - Implementation notes.
* `.spec_system/specs/phase41-session02-hermes-bridge-status/code-review.md` - Code review report.

**Review method**: Static analysis of session deliverables and all session-touched files, targeted diff inspection, added-line secret scan, focused tests, full tests, type checks, lint, formatter check, and ASCII/LF checks.

**Review evidence**:

* Command/check: `git diff --unified=0 570957c7d2dfcdf8568e48e0ae23a84c0ea244c3 -- scripts/lib/hermes-admin-bridge.ts src/lib/hermes-admin-types.ts scripts/lib/hermes-dev-bridge.ts`
  * Result: PASS - status, readiness, parser, and token-gate changes inspected.
  * Evidence: Admin preflight still checks method, loopback, and same-run token before local write readiness; parser validates status consistency; sensitive reads still require `x-claude-os-token`.
* Command/check: `rg -n "createHermesAdminStatusBody|resolveHermesWriteReadiness|requirePreflight|writeBlockers|tokenRequired" scripts/lib/hermes-admin-bridge.ts`
  * Result: PASS - readiness mapping and preflight owners located.
  * Evidence: Readiness returns named production/local-disablement blockers; status reports token requirement; write preflight uses the same readiness owner.
* Command/check: `rg -n "parseHermesAdminStatusResponse|validateHermesAdminStatusConsistency|localAccessMode|writeBlockers" src/lib/hermes-admin-types.ts src/lib/__tests__/hermes-admin-types.test.ts`
  * Result: PASS - browser parser rejects malformed or inconsistent bridge status payloads.
  * Evidence: Parser rejects mismatched `adminEnabled`/`writeReady`, invalid modes, inconsistent alias states, ready statuses with blockers, and blocked statuses without expected blockers.
* Command/check: `rg -n "sensitive|x-claude-os-token|invalid_token" scripts/lib/hermes-dev-bridge.ts scripts/lib/__tests__/hermes-dev-bridge.test.ts`
  * Result: PASS - sensitive Hermes reads remain token-gated.
  * Evidence: Sensitive endpoint inventory is still marked `sensitive: true`; missing or wrong tokens return `invalid_token`; regression covers all-access startup without manual admin setup.
* Command/check: `git diff --unified=0 570957c7d2dfcdf8568e48e0ae23a84c0ea244c3 -- [session-touched files] | rg '^\\+' | rg -n "api[_-]?key|bearer|token|secret|password|auth\\.json|/Users/|/home/|\\.env" || true`
  * Result: PASS - added lines contain only fixture token labels, token-required contract fields, and negative parser fixtures.
  * Evidence: No real provider keys, bearer values, auth JSON, private paths, local usernames, or secret-shaped production values were added.
* Command/check: `bun run test -- scripts/lib/__tests__/hermes-admin-bridge.test.ts src/lib/__tests__/hermes-admin-types.test.ts scripts/lib/__tests__/hermes-dev-bridge.test.ts`
  * Result: PASS - 3 files passed, 93 tests passed.
  * Evidence: Focused security-relevant preflight, parser, and sensitive-read tests passed.
* Command/check: `bun run test`
  * Result: PASS - 421 files passed, 4829 tests passed.
  * Evidence: Full suite passed after validation.

## Security Assessment

### Overall: PASS

| Category                      | Status | Severity | Details                                                                                                                                                                             |
| ----------------------------- | ------ | -------- | ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- |
| Injection (SQLi, CMDi, LDAPi) | PASS   | --       | No new SQL, LDAP, or shell-string execution path added. Hermes writes continue through existing validated payloads and no-shell argv paths; parser rejects malformed status shapes. |
| Hardcoded Secrets             | PASS   | --       | Added-line scan found no real secrets. Test token strings are fixture values and parser/status contract labels only.                                                                |
| Sensitive Data Exposure       | PASS   | --       | Status payloads expose readiness booleans, gate names, and named blockers only. Sensitive reads stay same-run token-gated.                                                          |
| Insecure Dependencies         | PASS   | --       | No package or lockfile changes in `git diff --name-only`; no new dependency was added.                                                                                              |
| Security Misconfiguration     | PASS   | --       | Production remains blocked; loopback and same-run token checks remain before writes; explicit local access disablement remains a named fail-closed state.                           |

## 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/specs/phase41-session02-hermes-bridge-status/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.
