maintenance: recurring third-party license and distribution review #53
Description
Purpose
Keep third-party licensing, attribution, artifact provenance, hosted-service/privacy boundaries and optional-vendor distribution policy current after the initial #26 legal baseline.
This is a standing maintenance issue. Keep it open and append dated human review evidence rather than creating recurring duplicate legal/policy trackers.
Cadence
- routine review: every 6 months;
- next routine review: 2027-02-01;
- also review before a stable release and whenever an out-of-cycle trigger occurs.
Out-of-cycle triggers
Review when any of these changes materially:
- bundled component/runtime/CLI/frontend dependency or optional integration;
- license, NOTICE, trademark guidance or redistribution terms;
- upstream archive/package/installer layout or artifact provenance;
- direct-download URL/installer/authentication/trust/telemetry/privacy model;
- standalone-artifact/Python/runtime evidence or validator behavior;
- vendor-governed agent implementation/support status;
- Antigravity runtime-admission semantics (security: define review-pending Antigravity runtime admission #96);
- project-owned ttyd/xterm frontend (refactor: add a reproducible project-owned ttyd web client #97);
- Context7/external hosted integrations (feat: add optional Context7 integration for the Codex service #94/feat: extend optional Context7 integration to the Antigravity service #95);
- Context7 authentication/onboarding beyond the reviewed feat(context7): evaluate device-login setup that generates a managed API key #123 path.
Review checklist
- compare
third_party/inventory.jsonwith actual base/final image components and current SBOMs; - confirm every pin/direct-download/generated asset has an inventory owner and expected notice path;
- review changed upstream license/NOTICE/terms/privacy text — automation is evidence collection, not legal approval;
- run
remote-dev-notices --checkin base/final images; - verify Python standalone metadata/shared-license/supplemental mapping;
- repeat bounded standalone-artifact inspection when relevant packaging changes;
- recheck Antigravity terms, privacy disclosures, installer behavior, authentication, runtime-admission semantics, credential boundaries and non-affiliation wording;
- confirm runtime-installed Antigravity remains outside immutable image layers/build-time SBOM claims;
- review any project-owned ttyd/xterm source/bundle/lockfile/notices introduced by refactor: add a reproducible project-owned ttyd web client #97;
- confirm OCI/release wording does not imply all bundled/runtime-installed software is Apache-2.0;
- update
reviewed_ononly after human review and record dated evidence.
Completed review log
- 2026-08-01 — initial baseline. Declarative inventory, bundled notices, Python runtime metadata, optional-vendor policy and exact standalone artifact inspection completed through the initial legal work.
- 2026-08-02 to 2026-08-05 — Antigravity implementation baseline. Official installer inspection, non-redistribution boundary, fixed-source explicit installation, disabled automatic updates, isolated service persistence and OAuth presentation reviewed. No Google installer/CLI bytes are committed or included in the image.
- 2026-08-09 — Context7 hosted-MCP review. Codex integration uses the hosted endpoint; no Context7 runtime/package is redistributed. Terms/privacy/data/API-key boundaries reviewed. Re-review required for materially changed transport/auth/data handling and independently for feat: extend optional Context7 integration to the Antigravity service #95.
- 2026-08-18 — Context7 device-login review. Reviewed the transient isolated
ctx7 login --no-browserpath, generated-key adoption and cleanup shipped by feat(context7): evaluate device-login setup that generates a managed API key #123/PR feat(context7): add device-code onboarding #136 without persisting/redistributing the vendor CLI.
Current out-of-cycle review — #96 / Antigravity terms
The #96 runtime-admission implementation is shipped and the real current-official-installer technical TrueNAS evidence is complete:
- current official installer/admission path exercised;
- real 1.1.19 → 1.1.22 explicit update;
- expected
official source; Remote Dev review pendingstate; - successful explicit full verify;
- successful real launch through the mandatory integrity gate;
- vendor auto-update remained disabled;
- runtime survived the controlled image rollback/restore lifecycle in completed test: complete Antigravity lifecycle and isolation validation on TrueNAS #29.
Therefore do not leave the #96 review entry waiting for more TrueNAS technical testing.
The remaining work is human interpretation of the current upstream vendor-policy/terms/privacy wording.
Current official Google terms/FAQ contain broad language restricting third-party software/tools/services from accessing Antigravity, including examples involving third-party OAuth/service clients. Remote Dev is materially different from such a client because it launches Google's official agy binary in an isolated container/wrapper rather than implementing an alternative Antigravity service client or reusing Antigravity OAuth for another agent.
However, whether containerizing/wrapping the official CLI is permitted under the breadth of that current language is a human policy/legal interpretation. Technical tests and automation must not make that decision.
Required human reconciliation for #96
- review the current Google Terms/FAQ/privacy/trust wording as it applies to Remote Dev's official-CLI container/wrapper model;
- record a dated interpretation/decision and any caveat or support restriction;
- determine whether documentation should remain explicitly experimental/unsupported by vendor terms or requires any additional warning;
- if the human review identifies a concrete technical/distribution defect, open a focused implementation issue rather than silently altering security: define review-pending Antigravity runtime admission #96 admission safeguards;
- once this entry is reconciled, security: define review-pending Antigravity runtime admission #96 may close formally if no focused defect remains;
- only after security: define review-pending Antigravity runtime admission #96 closes may automation: review official Antigravity CLI updates without gating availability #83 review automation be treated as ready to ship.
#53 itself remains open as the standing maintenance log after this entry is completed.
Current relationships
- legal: complete third-party notices and optional-agent distribution policy #26 — completed baseline.
- test: complete Antigravity lifecycle and isolation validation on TrueNAS #29/test: complete Antigravity project-scoped Start/Resume validation #131/test: validate Antigravity /resume conversation continuity on TrueNAS #106 — completed real Antigravity lifecycle/project/resume evidence; not outstanding legal-review gates.
- security: define review-pending Antigravity runtime admission #96 — implementation + technical TrueNAS evidence complete; waiting only on this human review entry/formal closure.
- automation: review official Antigravity CLI updates without gating availability #83 — scheduled Antigravity review automation after security: define review-pending Antigravity runtime admission #96 closes; must never auto-approve legal changes.
- feat: add optional Context7 integration for the Codex service #94/feat(context7): evaluate device-login setup that generates a managed API key #123 — completed Codex Context7 implementation/onboarding reviews.
- feat: extend optional Context7 integration to the Antigravity service #95 — requires fresh Antigravity-specific Context7 review before shipping.
- docs: synchronize the implemented stack, security contract and roadmap #92 — public documentation must reflect the resulting legal/distribution/support wording accurately.
- security: design simple secure remote access and stronger web authentication #181 — future browser access-security research; any new external auth/gateway service introduces its own terms/privacy review trigger when an implementation is selected.
Future review entries
- refactor: add a reproducible project-owned ttyd web client #97 frontend foundation — review ttyd/xterm source basis, generated client provenance, dependency licenses/notices before shipping a project-owned web client.
- 2027-02-01 routine review.
Cycle procedure
At each routine/out-of-cycle human review:
- append a dated log entry with the relevant evidence/PR;
- update reviewed metadata only after human inspection;
- set/update the next review date where applicable;
- keep unresolved legal/policy interpretation explicit rather than laundering it through automation;
- open focused implementation issues for concrete defects instead of expanding this standing tracker into runtime work.

2026-08-09 — out-of-cycle Context7 review for #94
Reviewed the current official Context7/Upstash and OpenAI Codex documentation before implementing the Codex-only hosted MCP integration.
Distribution / licensing boundary
ctx7,@upstash/context7-mcp, or other Context7 executable/package bytes.Current hosted-service terms/privacy reviewed
Official Upstash legal index currently links the Context7 Addendum, Upstash Terms of Service and Upstash Privacy Policy. The Context7 Addendum (effective August 2025) expressly covers MCP integrations and grants access/use for internal development, educational and evaluation purposes. It also requires users to secure API keys, verify outputs before production use, avoid sensitive/regulated data, respect rate/access controls and comply with underlying documentation licenses.
Current Context7 privacy/security documentation states that the original prompt/code/conversation remains with the AI assistant; Context7 receives MCP-formulated documentation search queries. Those queries may be used for server-side reranking and are anonymously stored for retrieval-quality benchmarking; API logs are documented with a 30-day retention period. Context7 states that indexed data is hosted on Upstash infrastructure in the US/EU and that the Context7 Addendum plus Upstash Terms/Privacy apply to users.
User-facing boundary required for #94
The implementation/documentation must therefore state clearly that:
Official sources reviewed on 2026-08-09:
developers.openai.com/codex/mcp, currently redirecting to the current ChatGPT Learn MCP documentation)github.com/upstash/context7,context7.com/docs)This satisfies the #53 out-of-cycle review gate for the bounded hosted-MCP design in #94. Re-review is required if #94 later starts redistributing Context7 code/packages, switches authentication/transport, or if the hosted terms/privacy materially change.

2026-08-16 — out-of-cycle Context7 device-login review for #123
Reviewed the new authentication/supply-chain boundary proposed for #123 against the current Context7 upstream source/package contract and current Upstash legal documents.
Exact implementation boundary reviewed
ctx7@0.5.7package and the vendor-nativectx7 login --no-browserflow.ctx7sk-...form. Remote Dev validates that exact credential shape before adoption.ctx7 setup: current upstream setup can create another API key and modify agent MCP config/rules/skills, including plaintext agent configuration paths that do not match our feat: add optional Context7 integration for the Codex service #94 ownership model./runsubtree, with a fresh HOME/XDG/npm cache, telemetry disabled, npm lifecycle scripts disabled, user/global npm config ignored, and the public npm registry fixed explicitly.nobodyidentity withno-new-privs. It receives no Codex/OpenAI/GitHub/current-Context7 credential environment and no realCODEX_HOME.remote-dev-context7 removeremains local-only. A device-created account-side API key is not claimed to be revoked; users must rotate/revoke it through Context7 account controls when desired.Distribution / license / provenance
The upstream Context7 repository and CLI package are MIT-licensed. This implementation does not redistribute the
ctx7package: npm obtains it directly from the fixed public registry during an explicit user action and Remote Dev does not retain its bytes.The top-level CLI version is exact rather than
latest, but its npm dependency graph is not a repository-committed immutable lock: upstream package dependencies include semver ranges. That is a deliberate remaining supply-chain limitation of this optional transient onboarding path. Mitigations are the explicit-only invocation, fixed package version and registry, disabled lifecycle scripts, credential-minimized unprivileged execution, private disposable filesystem state and full cleanup. If future review requires an immutable transitive dependency closure, that should be implemented explicitly rather than pretending the current npm execution provides it.Terms / privacy re-check
The current Upstash legal index still identifies the Upstash Terms of Service, Privacy Policy and Context7 Addendum as the applicable documents. The Context7 Addendum remains effective August 2025 and expressly covers MCP/API use by developers/AI assistants, requires protecting account credentials/API keys, prohibits sensitive/health/regulated inputs and unauthorized credential distribution, and treats Context7 Inputs/usage as Customer Data under the Upstash privacy terms. The main Terms remain last updated April 2025 and assign account/API credential security responsibility to the user; the Privacy Policy remains last updated April 2025.
Device login adds an account-authentication exchange and creation/adoption of an account-side API key, so the user-facing docs must disclose that this is an external Upstash/Context7 flow and that local removal does not revoke the account-side key. The existing #94 warning not to send sensitive/regulated data remains applicable.
Review result
No new redistribution/license blocker was found for the bounded implementation above. The #123 out-of-cycle legal/privacy/supply-chain review gate is satisfied for this exact design. Any change to a different
ctx7version, registry/source,ctx7 setup, native MCP OAuth, retained CLI package, different credential type, or broader vendor filesystem/credential access requires re-review.This review does not substitute for the still-required exact-candidate CI and real TrueNAS device-login/lifecycle validation before #123 can merge.

2026-08-17 — #136 implementation hardened within the approved Context7 boundary
Rechecked PR #136 after syncing it with merged #135. The current exact head is
524aec2b8d4302e514a990bf1f644afd1c532315.Manual security review tightened the implementation to match the already-approved #123 boundary: cleanup failure now blocks key adoption; transient temp/XDG runtime state is contained under the private
/runroot; vendor execution uses an isolated process group with bounded termination/reaping; privileged credential reads validate each path component withO_NOFOLLOWso vendor-controlled parent symlinks cannot redirect the read; and synthetic regressions cover those cases.This does not change the reviewed supply-chain/legal design: still exact
ctx7@0.5.7, onlyctx7 login --no-browser, noctx7 setup, no native MCP OAuth, no retained vendor package/state and no expanded credential/filesystem access. Therefore this is recorded as implementation hardening, not a new out-of-cycle review trigger.Exact-head Build AMD64 #996 is green and CodeRabbit completed a full technical review with no source-level findings. Real TrueNAS validation remains pending before merge.

Context7 #123 privacy/supply-chain record correction for PR #136, current exact head
251037b2a9aa0836cd97c18ee0cc5f705fff4cee.Reviewing the exact upstream
ctx7@0.5.7device-login source exposed one data-flow detail that was not explicit in the 2026-08-16 record: the official device-authorization request sendsos.hostname()on a best-effort basis so Context7 can identify the device on the browser-side verification page. After authorization, the CLI uses the newly issued key for a Context7whoamirequest and may display account identity/teamspace in the local terminal.The English and Spanish Context7 docs now disclose both behaviors and continue to require redaction of local account identity, device codes and credentials from validation evidence. Remote Dev does not persist the CLI output.
This corrects/completes the data-flow disclosure; it does not change the approved architecture or broaden the vendor boundary: exact top-level package remains
ctx7@0.5.7, onlyctx7 login --no-browseris invoked, vendor state remains transient, no existing Codex/OpenAI/GitHub/Context7 credential is inherited, execution remains unprivileged when root, and only the resulting reviewed long-livedctx7sk-...API key may be adopted into the existing #94 manager path after validation/cleanup.Also verified against exact primary upstream source that the new device flow returns the same long-lived
ctx7sk-...API-key form as the legacy flow. The broader upstream credential type retains refresh/expiry fields for legacy OAuth compatibility; PR #136 intentionally continues to reject those fields rather than silently expanding the reviewed credential lifecycle.No new legal blocker is identified from this correction. A change to package/version/source, auth model, retained state, hostname/account-data behavior, credential type/lifecycle or filesystem/credential access still requires re-review under this tracker.

2026-08-17 — Context7 0.5.8 + reviewed/latest admission re-review for #123

The proposed runtime selector does not bundle or persist Context7 CLI bytes. For an explicit device login it may offer either:
ctx7latestmetadata, clearly labelledofficial source; Remote Dev review pendingif it differs.A newer version is not blocked merely because human review is pending, matching the established optional-runtime availability principle. It is still fail-closed on the actual trust/compatibility boundary: fixed public npm registry, exact package name/version, stable-semver format, expected MIT package-license metadata, npm integrity metadata, isolated/unprivileged execution, no lifecycle scripts, no inherited agent credentials, only
ctx7 login --no-browser, expected long-livedctx7sk-...credential shape, and complete transient-state cleanup before adoption.latestis resolved first and execution then names that exact version rather than executing a mutable@latestspecifier.This does not change the hosted MCP contract, credential persistence model, service terms boundary, or normal Codex launch behavior. Future package releases remain

2026-08-27 — #96 current-installer / terms / privacy reconciliation evidence
Re-reviewed the Antigravity boundary after the real TrueNAS current-installer admission completed under #96/#29.
Distribution and runtime boundary remains unchanged
Remote Dev still:
agybinary;agyCLI rather than implementing an alternate client for Antigravity's service;The real 2026-08-27 TrueNAS pass admitted Google's then-current payload through the shipped #96 contract:
A real authenticated launch of official CLI
1.1.22succeeded afterward, and #29 subsequently proved the same persisted runtime remained usable across the controlled Remote Dev image rollback/return.Current official Google docs reviewed
As of this review, Google's own documentation explicitly supports:
https://antigravity.google/cli/install.sh;--print,--continueand--conversation;AGY_CLI_DISABLE_AUTO_UPDATE=true.Sources:
These current docs are consistent with Remote Dev's technical model of operating the official CLI in a remote/containerized developer terminal rather than reimplementing Antigravity authentication or model access.
Current terms/privacy boundary
The current Antigravity Additional Terms state broadly that using third-party software/tools/services to access the Service is prohibited, with
OpenClaw with Antigravity OAuthas an example:The same terms also state that Google records/stores Interactions and may use them for product/model improvement unless the user changes the applicable setting; Remote Dev therefore must continue to link Google's terms/privacy and must not imply that repository/prompt data remains solely local merely because the CLI itself runs locally.
A Google AI Developers Forum thread asks almost the exact integration question relevant here: a third-party developer tool launching the official unmodified
agybinary, delegating all authentication to it, never touching OAuth tokens and never calling Antigravity backends directly. A community reply says that usage is fine and distinguishes it from running Antigravity-account models in another harness. However, the reply is from a community participant, not identified as authoritative Google legal/product guidance, so it is useful context but not sufficient by itself to treat the terms question as formally resolved:https://discuss.ai.google.dev/t/is-invoking-the-official-antigravity-cli-agy-print-from-a-third-party-developer-tool-an-acceptable-use/175462
Review decision/status
Supply-chain, installer, authentication, privacy-disclosure and non-redistribution evidence for #96 is now complete and consistent with the shipped implementation.
One human terms-interpretation decision remains before marking the #96 out-of-cycle review-log item complete: whether Remote Dev's role as a container/terminal launcher for the unmodified official CLI is accepted as outside the prohibited “third-party software ... to access the Service” scenario, or whether explicit clarification from Google should be requested first.
I am deliberately not marking that legal interpretation as approved automatically. No additional TrueNAS testing is required for #96; the remaining gate is this narrow human decision. Keep #53 open as the standing review tracker regardless.

2026-08-27 — lower-ambiguity fallback identified, not adopted
One additional official-doc finding is relevant if the remaining human terms interpretation decides that account-based Antigravity OAuth should not be exposed through Remote Dev.
Google's current official Antigravity CLI now supports running the same
agybinary with a user-provided Gemini API key instead of an Antigravity account session. The docs state that in this mode requests go directly to the Gemini API and the CLI never establishes an account session; configuration usesmodelProvider: "gemini"in~/.gemini/antigravity-cli/settings.jsonplusGEMINI_API_KEYin the process environment. The Antigravity FAQ separately recommends a Vertex or AI Studio API key when users want a third-party coding-agent path.Official references:
This is not a recommendation to change Remote Dev now: it changes account/quota/billing and credential-management semantics and has not been designed or validated here. Keep the current implementation unchanged pending the human #53/#96 decision.
If account-OAuth use is judged too ambiguous under the current terms, the API-key mode is a plausible separately reviewed fallback that still executes Google's official CLI and avoids reuse of an Antigravity account session. That should become a focused issue only if the owner chooses that policy; do not silently switch existing users or broaden #96.

The generated image SBOMs do not enumerate the standalone/minified ttyd frontend packages individually; that limitation is already documented by the repository, so the dedicated hash-bound frontend inventory/SPDX is the authoritative closure for this asset rather than pretending the generic image SBOM is a perfect standalone-bundle detector.The final source-level check also confirmed that exact ttyd 1.7.7 assigns the xterm instance via
window.term = terminalinXterm.open(), so PR #175's pre-bundlewindow.termsetter installs against the actual pinned upstream lifecycle rather than an assumed hook. ttyd reconnect reuses that terminal instance.No new legal/supply-chain blocker was identified in the final review.

2026-09-03 — #96 current Google terms/docs recheck; human decision narrowed
Re-checked the current official Google Antigravity terms, FAQ and CLI documentation before asking the owner for the final #96 policy disposition.
Current official terms/FAQ
The Additional Terms still contain the broad restriction that the Service must not be used “in connection with products not provided by us” and state that using third-party software/tools/services to access the Service (example: OpenClaw with Antigravity OAuth) breaches the agreement and may lead to suspension/termination.
The current official FAQ makes the intended abuse case more concrete: it names Claude Code, OpenClaw and OpenCode used with an Antigravity login as prohibited third-party access, and recommends a Vertex/AI Studio API key when a user wants a third-party coding agent to use Gemini.
Official references reviewed on 2026-09-03:
Current official CLI documentation materially narrows the ambiguity
Google now/currently documents Antigravity CLI itself as an official terminal-first surface and explicitly supports usage patterns that are structurally close to Remote Dev's environment:
https://antigravity.google/cli/install.sh;agyruns on a remote machine and authentication is completed in a browser elsewhere;Official references reviewed on 2026-09-03:
Remote Dev's actual boundary remains on the lower-risk side of that distinction
Remote Dev still:
agybinary rather than speaking Antigravity backend protocols itself;This is materially closer to “run the official CLI in a remote terminal / script / CI environment”, which Google explicitly documents, than to the FAQ's prohibited pattern of using an Antigravity account/login to power a different coding-agent harness.
What is still not resolved automatically
The broad phrase “in connection with products not provided by us” is still present. There is still no identified authoritative Google legal/product response specifically saying that a third-party container/terminal launcher around the unmodified official CLI is permitted. The existing Google AI Developers Forum reply to the near-identical
agy --printlauncher question is useful context but is from a community participant, not authoritative Google guidance.Therefore this evidence reduces the ambiguity but does not convert it into an automatic legal approval.
Recommended conservative disposition for the owner's human decision
A reasonable low-claim project policy would be:
Alternative conservative disposition: require explicit written clarification from Google before making any stronger support claim. No code change is needed for either choice today.
Remaining #96 gate is now only the owner's human policy choice between those two dispositions. No additional TrueNAS technical testing is indicated by this review.

2026-09-03 — human Antigravity policy/terms reconciliation for #96
Owner decision: accept disposition A for the current Remote Dev Antigravity integration.
Interpretation recorded
Remote Dev may continue to expose Antigravity as an experimental optional integration because the implemented model launches Google's official
agyCLI inside the isolated Remote Dev role container rather than implementing an alternative Antigravity service client, impersonating the official client, or reusing Antigravity/Google OAuth credentials for another coding agent or service.The current official CLI documentation materially supports terminal/remote usage patterns including remote SSH/headless/automation scenarios. At the same time, current Google terms/FAQ contain broader third-party-tool wording whose application to an official-CLI container/wrapper is not perfectly explicit. The project therefore records this as a human risk/policy interpretation, not as vendor legal approval, certification or endorsement.
Required support restrictions
The accepted project policy is:
agyCLI/runtime obtained through the reviewed official-source path;AGY_CLI_DISABLE_AUTO_UPDATE=truefor supported Remote Dev sessions;official source; Remote Dev review pendingas Google signing, Remote Dev certification or vendor approval;No concrete implementation or distribution defect was identified by this reconciliation, so the existing #96 runtime-admission safeguards should remain unchanged.
Disposition
This completes the outstanding human #53 reconciliation required by #96. #53 remains open as the standing six-month/out-of-cycle review log. Antigravity remains experimental until the public documentation/support wording is synchronized under #92; this decision does not promote it to a vendor-supported or stable integration.

2026-10-18 — PR2 #281 targeted owner sign-off: redistribution/licensing and image-size budget
Decision: The project owner has explicitly approved proceeding with PR #281 after the exact-head CI/review audit, including (1) the incremental uncompressed image-size exception above the 50 MiB soft threshold in #121, and (2) continued redistribution of the identified additional open-source toolchain components under their preserved upstream terms/notices. This approval is specific to PR2 and is not a legal opinion or a blanket approval of future versions/dependencies.
Scope reviewed: final reviewed source head
d242caa7cab77b08d115c6bc6b77d7e25440622b. Six approved user-facing tools: Ruff 0.17.1, pytest 9.1.1, pre-commit 4.7.0, Mike Farah yq 4.54.1, shfmt 3.14.1, actionlint 1.7.12. Existing global Python 3.14.8/3.15.0 remain unpolluted; three isolated hash-locked Python CLI graphs. Native Aqua assets retain locked AMD64/ARM64 identities, checksums and supported provenance metadata.Attribution/distribution evidence reviewed:
third_party/inventory.json,third_party/components/python-clis/manifest.json, 17 transitive Python package entries each with hash-bound wheel-derivedNOTICES.txt, including embedded virtualenv seed-wheel notices; nine inspected standalone components overall, including three new native tools (both architectures). Reported license families for the new graphs and native CLIs are permissive MIT/BSD/Apache/PSF variants; files with verbatim upstream license/notice texts are retained. The exact-head Build AMD64 checksremote-dev-notices --checkin base/final, produces SPDX SBOMs and applies Trivy gates, including 0 CRITICAL reported. No new vendor OAuth, proprietary Antigravity redistribution, hosted-service terms, containers/host privileges or credential boundaries are introduced.Explicit size budget exception: exact original CI before/after measurement versus main
6a0fdf2c917a3b4ac62fc2ccfd91c1646ad0c77b= base+73,826,162 bytes (+70.41 MiB); final+71,362,060 bytes (+68.06 MiB), ~4.31% final-image increase. Both exceed the 50 MiB advisory threshold. Accepted as a justified trade-off for six pre-CI, audited, immutable CLI capabilities rather than removing provenance/notice/isolated-environment guarantees. Compressed pull-size increase has not been measured. The exceptional before/after comparison remains manually opt-in and does not burden normal CI.Technical review and limits: source head is mergeable/up to date, exact-head PR build, default manual build and offline contract CI passed. CodeRabbit status
Review completed, no open review threads, prior actionable finding resolved. Tests model role fixtures, not a completed authenticated real-agent TrueNAS acceptance. Owner-approved review is limited to the additional PR2 distribution changes and does not replace a full periodic #53 audit: leave globalthird_party/inventory.json.reviewed_onunchanged until the next comprehensive review. Keep #53 open for routine/out-of-cycle updates. On new versions or changed license/packaging, re-review as required.Release boundary: squash merge authorized. That main-push can trigger the reviewed experimental edge publication workflow, never the stable channel. Confirm post-merge publication checks and conduct separate real TrueNAS user acceptance; no TrueNAS changes are made by recording this decision.
