fix(assail): refuse an unwritable KYAML copy or sidecar before replacing the report - #274
Codex raised this on #264 after it merged. The --output-format kyaml preflight looks each output up, but lookup does not show that a path can be written. The run then replaces report.json and only afterwards fails on the copy, leaving the new report beside stale companions. Two inputs trigger this:
a read-only report.kyaml or report.attestation.json;
a directory the caller cannot create files in.
The preflight is meant to be all-or-nothing, and this breaks it.
Change
kyaml_copy_path now opens each output for writing during the preflight, without truncating it. An absent output is created and then removed again.
The kernel makes the decision, so ACLs and ownership count, not only mode bits.
The CHANGELOG [Unreleased] entry for the KYAML copy notes this.
Validation
Two new tests in tests/coverage_php_tests.rs: a read-only copy, and an attested run into an unwritable directory. Each checks that the run fails with "nothing was written" and that the old report is still there.
Run as nobody, both fail without the fix and pass with it. All 13 kyaml_output_format tests pass.
Root ignores permission bits, so as root the two tests detect that and skip. GitHub runners run unprivileged, so CI exercises them.
cargo fmt --check and cargo clippy --all-targets -- -D warnings are clean, and cargo test passes all 24 suites.
Not covered here: the same problem in plain JSON mode with --attest (report plus sidecar), which has never had a preflight. That is on the follow-up list, and the planned generation-directory publish would close it for every mode.
…ing the report
The KYAML-mode preflight looked each output up but never tested that it
could be written. A read-only report.kyaml or sidecar, or a directory the
caller cannot create files in, passed the checks; its write then failed
after report.json had already been replaced, leaving a new report beside
stale companions. Codex raised this on #264 after it merged.
Each output is now opened for writing during the preflight, without
truncation; an absent one is created and removed again. The kernel makes
the decision, so ACLs and ownership are honoured, not just mode bits.
Two tests cover a read-only copy and an unwritable directory. Both fail
without the fix and pass with it when run unprivileged; as root, which
ignores permission bits, they skip.

Bug Fixes
Output files are now checked before report generation begins. If a report, KYAML copy or attestation sidecar cannot be opened for writing, the operation stops with an error identifying the affected output.
This prevents report files or KYAML copies from being partially written or changed when an output location is unavailable or unwritable.
The change checks whether each report output can be opened for writing before writing outputs. It adds Unix tests for read-only KYAML copies and unwritable report directories, and documents the preflight check.

Summary
Check output access before writing src/main.rs, tests/coverage_php_tests.rs, CHANGELOG.adoc
kyaml_copy_path checks each output before writing. It opens existing files without truncating them, or creates and removes missing files. Unix tests check that failures leave existing outputs unchanged or do not create the KYAML copy. The changelog documents this behaviour.

Explanation
The title names the main change: KYAML output now refuses an unwritable copy or sidecar before the report is replaced. The raw summary and objectives both describe a preflight that opens each output for writing before replacing report.json. The title is specific and accurate, and it is a single sentence. Its length is acceptable for a conventional-commit style title.
Full details: Description check
Explanation
The description explains the problem (the KYAML preflight only looks up outputs and does not test writability, so report.json is replaced before the copy fails), the change (opening each output for writing without truncation, with creation and removal for absent files), the CHANGELOG update, the two new Unix tests, and the validation performed. It also states a known gap in plain JSON mode with --attest. This matches the code changes described in the summary and objectives.
Full details: Docstring Coverage
Explanation
Docstring coverage is 33.33% which is insufficient. The required threshold is 80.00%. Docstring coverage is scoped to functions touched by this diff with cyclomatic complexity of at least 2. Documentation-only edits and deletions within surviving functions are included; unchanged diff context and fully deleted functions are excluded. Analyzed 3 functions across 2 files. (1 skipped: 1 unsupported.)
Resolution
Write docstrings for the functions missing them to satisfy the coverage threshold.
