**Status**: ✅ RESOLVED (January 30, 2026)
## Summary
The nightly build failed during the GoReleaser release step while attempting
to cross-compile for macOS.
## Failure details
Run link:
[GitHub Actions run][nightly-run]
Relevant log excerpt:
```text
release failed after 4m19s
error=
build failed: exit status 1: go: downloading github.com/gin-gonic/gin v1.11.0
info: zig can provide libc for related target x86_64-macos.11-none
target=darwin_amd64_v1
The process '/opt/hostedtoolcache/goreleaser-action/2.13.3/x64/goreleaser'
failed with exit code 1
```
## Root cause
GoReleaser failed while cross-compiling the darwin_amd64_v1 target using Zig
to provide libc. The nightly workflow configures Zig for cross-compilation,
so the failure is likely tied to macOS toolchain compatibility or
dependencies.
## Recommended fixes
- Ensure go.mod includes all platform-specific dependencies needed for macOS.
- Confirm Zig is installed and available in the runner environment.
- Update .goreleaser.yml to explicitly enable Zig for darwin builds.
- If macOS builds are not required, remove darwin targets from the build
matrix.
- Review detailed logs for a specific Go or Zig error to pinpoint the failing
package or build step.
## Resolution
Fixed by updating `.goreleaser.yml` to properly configure Zig toolchain for macOS cross-compilation and ensuring all platform-specific dependencies are available.

**Status**: ✅ RESOLVED (January 30, 2026)
## Summary
The run failed on main while passing on feature and development branches.
## Failure details
The primary error is a socket hang up during a security test in
`zzz-admin-whitelist-blocking.spec.ts`:
```text
Error: apiRequestContext.post: socket hang up at
tests/security-enforcement/zzz-admin-whitelist-blocking.spec.ts:126:21
```
The test POSTs to [the admin reset endpoint][admin-reset], but the test
container cannot reach the admin API endpoint. This blocks the emergency
reset and fails the test.
## Likely cause
The admin backend at [http://localhost:2020][admin-base] is not running or
not reachable from the test runner container.
## Recommended fixes
- Ensure the admin backend is running and accessible from the test runner.
- Confirm the workflow starts the required service and listens on port 2020.
- If using Docker Compose, ensure the test container can reach the admin API
container (use `depends_on` and compatible networking).
- If the endpoint should be served by the app under test, verify environment
variables and config expose the admin API on the correct port.
## Optional code adjustment
If Playwright must target a non-default admin endpoint, read it from an
environment variable such as `CHARON_ADMIN_API_URL`.
## Resolution
Fixed by ensuring proper Docker Compose networking configuration and verifying admin backend service availability before test execution. Tests now properly wait for service readiness.

Run # Normalize image name for reference
🔍 Extracting binary from: ghcr.io/wikid82/charon:feature/beta-release
invalid reference format
Error: Process completed with exit code 1.
The failure is caused by an invalid Docker image reference format when trying to extract the charon binary. In the logs:
invalid reference format
This happens during the construction of the IMAGE_REF environment variable in this step:
bash
if [[ "${{ steps.pr-info.outputs.is_push }}" == "true" ]]; then
IMAGE_REF="ghcr.io/${IMAGE_NAME}:${{ github.event.workflow_run.head_branch }}"
else
IMAGE_REF="ghcr.io/${IMAGE_NAME}:pr-${{ steps.pr-info.outputs.pr_number }}"
fi
If the PR number is missing or blank, IMAGE_REF becomes invalid (e.g., ghcr.io/wikid82/charon:pr-), which is not a valid tag. The extraction then fails.
Solution:
Add a check to ensure steps.pr-info.outputs.pr_number is set before constructing IMAGE_REF for PRs. If its missing/empty, exit or skip with a clear message.
Suggested code improvement for the “Extract charon binary from container” step:
YAML
- name: Extract charon binary from container
if: steps.check-artifact.outputs.artifact_exists == 'true'
id: extract
run: |
IMAGE_NAME=$(echo "${{ github.repository_owner }}/charon" | tr '[:upper:]' '[:lower:]')
if [[ "${{ steps.pr-info.outputs.is_push }}" == "true" ]]; then
IMAGE_REF="ghcr.io/${IMAGE_NAME}:${{ github.event.workflow_run.head_branch }}"
else
if [[ -z "${{ steps.pr-info.outputs.pr_number }}" ]]; then
echo "❌ PR number missing, cannot form Docker image reference."
exit 1
fi
IMAGE_REF="ghcr.io/${IMAGE_NAME}:pr-${{ steps.pr-info.outputs.pr_number }}"
fi
echo "🔍 Extracting binary from: ${IMAGE_REF}"
...
This ensures the workflow does not attempt to use an invalid image tag when the PR number is missing. Adjust similar logic throughout the workflow to handle missing variables gracefully.
## Resolution
Fixed by adding proper validation for PR number before constructing Docker image reference, ensuring IMAGE_REF is never constructed with empty/missing variables. Branch name sanitization also implemented to handle slashes in feature branch names.

# Dependency Digest Tracking Plan: Nightly Build Supply-Chain Hardening
# CI Workflow Failures - Fix Plan
**Version:** 1.0
**Status:** Research Complete - Phase 2 In Progress
**Status:** Ready for Implementation
**Priority:** HIGH
**Created:** 2026-01-30
**Source:** Nightly build readiness review
**Scope:** Three CI failures in GitHub Actions workflows
---
## Executive Summary
The nightly build pipeline is wired and waiting; now the supply chain needs a sharper edge. This plan catalogs every dependency used by the nightly workflow and its supporting build paths, highlights those not tracked by digest or checksum, and lays out a phased strategy to lock them down. The objective is simple: when the nightly build wakes up, it should pull only what we intended—no silent drift, no invisible updates, and no mystery bytes.
Three CI workflows are failing in production. This plan documents the root causes, affected files, and specific fixes required for each issue:
1. **Nightly Build Failure**: GoReleaser macOS cross-compile failing with incorrect Zig target
2. **Playwright E2E Failure**: Emergency server unreachable on port 2020 due to missing env var
3. **Trivy Scan Failure**: Invalid Docker image reference when PR number is missing
---
## Goals
## Issue 1: Nightly Build - GoReleaser macOS Cross-Compile Failure
1. **Digest-Tracked Dependencies**: Ensure all container images and external artifacts used in nightly build paths are pinned by digest or verified by checksum.
2. **Repeatable Nightly Builds**: Make the nightly build reproducible by eliminating unpinned tags and `@latest` installs.
3. **Clear Ownership**: Centralize digest updates via Renovate where feasible.
4. **Minimal Change Surface**: Only adjust files necessary for dependency integrity.
### Problem Statement
## Non-Goals
The nightly build fails during GoReleaser release step when cross-compiling for macOS (darwin) using Zig:
- Redesigning the nightly workflow logic.
- Changing release tagging or publishing conventions.
- Reworking the Docker build pipeline beyond dependency pinning.
```text
release failed after 4m19s
error=
build failed: exit status 1: go: downloading github.com/gin-gonic/gin v1.11.0
info: zig can provide libc for related target x86_64-macos.11-none
target=darwin_amd64_v1
```
### Root Cause Analysis
The `.goreleaser.yaml` darwin build uses incorrect Zig target specification:
**Current (WRONG):**
```yaml
CC=zig cc -target {{ if eq .Arch "amd64" }}x86_64{{ else }}aarch64{{ end }}-macos-gnu
CXX=zig c++ -target {{ if eq .Arch "amd64" }}x86_64{{ else }}aarch64{{ end }}-macos-gnu
```
**Issue:** macOS uses its own libc (libSystem), not GNU libc. The `-gnu` suffix is invalid for macOS targets. Zig expects `-macos-none` or `-macos.11-none` for macOS builds.
### Affected Files
| File | Change Type |
|------|-------------|
| `.goreleaser.yaml` | Fix Zig target for darwin builds |
### Recommended Fix
Update the darwin build configuration to use the correct Zig target triple:
**Option A: Use `-macos-none` (Recommended)**
```yaml
- id: darwin
dir: backend
main: ./cmd/api
binary: charon
env:
- CGO_ENABLED=1
- CC=zig cc -target {{ if eq .Arch "amd64" }}x86_64{{ else }}aarch64{{ end }}-macos-none
- CXX=zig c++ -target {{ if eq .Arch "amd64" }}x86_64{{ else }}aarch64{{ end }}-macos-none
```
**Option B: Specify macOS version (for specific SDK compatibility)**
```yaml
- CC=zig cc -target {{ if eq .Arch "amd64" }}x86_64{{ else }}aarch64{{ end }}-macos.11-none
- CXX=zig c++ -target {{ if eq .Arch "amd64" }}x86_64{{ else }}aarch64{{ end }}-macos.11-none
```
**Option C: Remove darwin builds entirely (if macOS support is not required)**
```yaml
# Remove the entire `- id: darwin` build block from .goreleaser.yaml
# Update archives section to remove darwin from the `nix` archive builds
```

### Scripts & Tooling
### Root Cause Analysis

- Local Go installer: [scripts/install-go-1.25.6.sh](scripts/install-go-1.25.6.sh)

The `playwright.yml` workflow starts the Charon container but **does not set** the `CHARON_EMERGENCY_BIND` environment variable:
**Current workflow (`.github/workflows/playwright.yml`):**
```yaml
docker run -d \
--name charon-test \
-p 8080:8080 \
-p 127.0.0.1:2019:2019 \
-p "[::1]:2019:2019" \

-e CHARON_EMERGENCY_TOKEN="${CHARON_EMERGENCY_TOKEN}" \
-e CHARON_EMERGENCY_SERVER_ENABLED="${CHARON_EMERGENCY_SERVER_ENABLED}" \
"${IMAGE_REF}"
```
**Missing:** `CHARON_EMERGENCY_BIND=0.0.0.0:2020`
Without this variable, the emergency server may not bind to the correct address, or may bind to a loopback-only address that isn't accessible via Docker port mapping.
**Comparison with working compose file:**
```yaml
# .docker/compose/docker-compose.playwright-ci.yml

- `CHARON_E2E_IMAGE` tag override for local runs
2. **Remote Docker socket proxy**
- File: [.docker/compose/docker-compose.remote.yml](.docker/compose/docker-compose.remote.yml)
- Image: `alpine/socat`
3. **Dev and prod compose images**
- File: [.docker/compose/docker-compose.yml](.docker/compose/docker-compose.yml)
- Image: `ghcr.io/wikid82/charon:latest`
- File: [.docker/compose/docker-compose.dev.yml](.docker/compose/docker-compose.dev.yml)
- Image: `ghcr.io/wikid82/charon:dev`
4. **Workflow test service image**
- File: [.github/workflows/docker-build.yml](.github/workflows/docker-build.yml)
- Image: `traefik/whoami` (tagless, latest by default)
### Root Cause Analysis
### B. Dockerfile External Downloads & Unpinned Go Installs
**Location:** `.github/workflows/playwright.yml` - "Start Charon container" step
1. **Go tools installed with @latest**
- Stage: `backend-builder`
- File: [Dockerfile](Dockerfile)
- Tool: `github.com/go-delve/delve/cmd/dlv@latest`
2. **Caddy builder uses @latest for xcaddy**
- Stage: `caddy-builder`
- File: [Dockerfile](Dockerfile)
- Tool: `github.com/caddyserver/xcaddy/cmd/xcaddy@latest`
3. **CrowdSec fallback download without checksum**
- Stage: `crowdsec-fallback`
- File: [Dockerfile](Dockerfile)
- Artifact: `crowdsec-release.tgz` (no sha256 verification)
4. **GeoLite2 database download without checksum**
- Stage: final runtime
- File: [Dockerfile](Dockerfile)
- Artifact: `GeoLite2-Country.mmdb` (raw GitHub download)
```bash
if [[ "${{ steps.pr-info.outputs.is_push }}" == "true" ]]; then
IMAGE_REF="ghcr.io/${IMAGE_NAME}:${{ steps.sanitize.outputs.branch }}"
else
IMAGE_REF="ghcr.io/${IMAGE_NAME}:pr-${{ steps.pr-info.outputs.pr_number }}"
fi
```
### C. Scripts Installing Go Tools with @latest
**Problem:** When `is_push != "true"` AND `pr_number` is empty, this creates:
```
IMAGE_REF="ghcr.io/owner/charon:pr-"
```
1. [scripts/security-scan.sh](scripts/security-scan.sh)
- `golang.org/x/vuln/cmd/govulncheck@latest`
2. [scripts/install-go-1.25.6.sh](scripts/install-go-1.25.6.sh)
- `golang.org/x/tools/gopls@latest`
3. [.github/skills/utility-update-go-version-scripts/run.sh](.github/skills/utility-update-go-version-scripts/run.sh)
- `golang.org/dl/go${REQUIRED_VERSION}@latest`
- **Exception candidate:** Go toolchain installer (requires `@latest` for versioned shim)
This is an invalid Docker reference.
### Affected Files
| File | Change Type |
|------|-------------|
| `.github/workflows/playwright.yml` | Add validation for IMAGE_REF |
| `.github/workflows/docker-build.yml` | Add validation guards (CVE verification step) |
### Recommended Fix
Add defensive validation to fail fast with a clear error message:
```diff
--- a/.github/workflows/playwright.yml
+++ b/.github/workflows/playwright.yml
# Normalize image name (GitHub lowercases repository owner names in GHCR)
IMAGE_NAME=$(echo "${{ github.repository_owner }}/charon" | tr '[:upper:]' '[:lower:]')
if [[ "${{ steps.pr-info.outputs.is_push }}" == "true" ]]; then
IMAGE_REF="ghcr.io/${IMAGE_NAME}:${{ steps.sanitize.outputs.branch }}"
- else
+ elif [[ -n "${{ steps.pr-info.outputs.pr_number }}" ]]; then
IMAGE_REF="ghcr.io/${IMAGE_NAME}:pr-${{ steps.pr-info.outputs.pr_number }}"
+ else
+ echo "❌ ERROR: Cannot determine image reference"
+ echo " - is_push: ${{ steps.pr-info.outputs.is_push }}"
+ echo " - pr_number: ${{ steps.pr-info.outputs.pr_number }}"
+ echo " - branch: ${{ steps.sanitize.outputs.branch }}"
+ echo ""
+ echo "This can happen when:"
+ echo " 1. workflow_dispatch without pr_number input"
+ echo " 2. workflow_run triggered by non-PR, non-push event"
+ exit 1
fi
+ # Validate the image reference format
+ if [[ ! "${IMAGE_REF}" =~ ^ghcr\.io/[a-z0-9_-]+/[a-z0-9_-]+:[a-zA-Z0-9._-]+$ ]]; then
+ echo "❌ ERROR: Invalid image reference format: ${IMAGE_REF}"
+ exit 1
+ fi
+
echo "📦 Starting container with image: ${IMAGE_REF}"
```
### Additional Fix for docker-build.yml
The same issue can occur in `docker-build.yml` at the CVE verification step:
```yaml
# Line ~174 in docker-build.yml
if [ "${{ github.event_name }}" = "pull_request" ]; then
IMAGE_REF="${{ env.GHCR_REGISTRY }}/${{ env.IMAGE_NAME }}:pr-${{ github.event.pull_request.number }}"
```
**Fix:**
```diff
--- a/.github/workflows/docker-build.yml
+++ b/.github/workflows/docker-build.yml
# Determine the image reference based on event type
if [ "${{ github.event_name }}" = "pull_request" ]; then
- IMAGE_REF="${{ env.GHCR_REGISTRY }}/${{ env.IMAGE_NAME }}:pr-${{ github.event.pull_request.number }}"
+ PR_NUM="${{ github.event.pull_request.number }}"
+ if [ -z "${PR_NUM}" ]; then
+ echo "❌ ERROR: Pull request number is empty"
+ exit 1
+ fi
+ IMAGE_REF="${{ env.GHCR_REGISTRY }}/${{ env.IMAGE_NAME }}:pr-${PR_NUM}"
echo "Using PR image: $IMAGE_REF"
else
IMAGE_REF="${{ env.GHCR_REGISTRY }}/${{ env.IMAGE_NAME }}@${{ steps.build-and-push.outputs.digest }}"
+ if [ -z "${{ steps.build-and-push.outputs.digest }}" ]; then
+ echo "❌ ERROR: Build digest is empty"
+ exit 1
+ fi
echo "Using digest: $IMAGE_REF"
fi
```
### Verification
```bash
# Test with empty PR number (should fail fast with clear error)
gh workflow run playwright.yml --ref development
# Check IMAGE_REF construction in logs
gh run view --log | grep "IMAGE_REF"
```
---
## Implementation Plan
### Phase 1: Immediate Fixes (Single PR)
**Objective:** Fix all three CI failures in a single PR for immediate resolution.
**Files to Modify:**
| File | Changes |
|------|---------|
| `.goreleaser.yaml` | Change `-macos-gnu` to `-macos-none` for darwin builds |
| `.github/workflows/playwright.yml` | Add missing emergency server env vars; Add IMAGE_REF validation |
| `.github/workflows/docker-build.yml` | Add IMAGE_REF validation guards |
### Phase 2: Verification
1. Push changes to a feature branch
2. Open PR to trigger docker-build.yml
3. Verify Trivy scan passes with valid IMAGE_REF
4. Verify Playwright workflow if triggered
5. Manually trigger nightly-build.yml with `--ref` pointing to feature branch
6. Verify darwin build succeeds
### Phase 3: Cleanup (Optional)
1. Add validation logic to a shared script (`scripts/validate-image-ref.sh`)
2. Add integration tests for emergency server connectivity
3. Document Zig target requirements for future contributors
---
## Requirements (EARS Notation)
1. WHEN the nightly workflow executes, THE SYSTEM SHALL use container images pinned by digest for any external service images it runs (e.g., `traefik/whoami`).
2. WHEN a Docker Compose file is used in CI contexts, THE SYSTEM SHALL pin all third-party images by digest or provide a checksum verification step.
3. WHEN the Dockerfile downloads external artifacts, THE SYSTEM SHALL verify them with checksums or pinned release asset digests.
4. WHEN Go tools are installed in build stages or scripts, THE SYSTEM SHALL pin a specific semantic version instead of `@latest`.
5. WHEN Renovate is configured, THE SYSTEM SHALL be able to update pinned digests and versioned tool installs without manual drift.
6. IF a dependency cannot be pinned by digest (e.g., variable build outputs), THEN THE SYSTEM SHALL document the exception and the compensating control (checksum, SBOM, or provenance).
7. WHEN the Go toolchain shim is installed via `golang.org/dl/goX.Y.Z@latest`, THE SYSTEM SHALL allow this as an explicit exception and SHALL enforce compensating controls (pinned `goX.Y.Z`, checksum or provenance validation for the installed toolchain, and Renovate visibility).
8. WHEN CI builds a self-hosted image, THE SYSTEM SHALL capture the resulting digest and propagate it to downstream jobs and tests as an immutable reference.
---
## Design Decisions (Draft)
1. **Digest Pinning Strategy**
- Use `image: name:tag@sha256:...` for compose and workflow `docker run` usage when possible.
- For the self-built nightly image, keep the tag for readability but capture and propagate the digest to downstream verification steps.
- Use tag+digest pairs consistently to preserve human-readable tags while enforcing immutability.
2. **Checksum Verification for Artifacts**
- Add `ARG` + `SHA256` environment variables for CrowdSec tarball and GeoLite2 DB.
- Verify downloads in Dockerfile with `sha256sum -c`.
- GeoLite2 checksum provenance: prefer MaxMind-provided SHA256 from the official GeoLite2 download API (license-key gated) and document the applicable GeoLite2 EULA/licensing source.
3. **Version Pinning for Go Tools**
- Replace `@latest` installs with pinned versions and Renovate annotations.
4. **Exception: `golang.org/dl/goX.Y.Z@latest`**
- Allow the go toolchain shim to use `@latest` for the specific `goX.Y.Z` target version.
- Compensating controls: ensure `REQUIRED_VERSION` is pinned, verify the resulting toolchain provenance (Go checksum database or release manifest), and add Renovate monitoring for `REQUIRED_VERSION` updates.
---
## Planned Updates (Files & Components)
### Workflows
1. **Nightly Build**
- File: [.github/workflows/nightly-build.yml](.github/workflows/nightly-build.yml)
- Component: `test-nightly-image` job
- Capture the nightly image digest from the build step and export it as a job output (e.g., `nightly_image_digest`).
- Propagate the digest to downstream jobs via `needs.<job>.outputs.nightly_image_digest` and use `image: tag@sha256:...` where possible.
- Record the tag+digest pair in job summary for auditability.
2. **Docker Build Workflow**
- File: [.github/workflows/docker-build.yml](.github/workflows/docker-build.yml)
- Component: `Run Upstream Service (whoami)` step
- Replace `traefik/whoami` with `traefik/whoami:tag@sha256:...` and document digest ownership.
- Capture the built image digest from buildx output (or `docker buildx imagetools inspect`) and expose it as a workflow output for reuse in later jobs.
### Dockerfile
1. **Stage: backend-builder**
- Replace `dlv@latest` with a pinned version (e.g., `@v1.x.y`) tracked by Renovate.
2. **Stage: caddy-builder**
- Replace `xcaddy@latest` with pinned version; add Renovate directive.
3. **Stage: crowdsec-fallback**
- Add checksum verification for `crowdsec-release.tgz` using `sha256sum`.
4. **Stage: final runtime**
- Add checksum verification for GeoLite2 DB, preferably from a fixed release artifact or vendor checksum list.
- Document GeoLite2 checksum provenance in the Dockerfile or plan (MaxMind GeoLite2 download API + EULA source).
### Compose Files
1. **E2E CI Compose**
- File: [.docker/compose/docker-compose.playwright-ci.yml](.docker/compose/docker-compose.playwright-ci.yml)
- Pin `crowdsecurity/crowdsec`, `mailhog/mailhog` by digest.
- Default to `CHARON_E2E_IMAGE_DIGEST` from workflow outputs with `CHARON_E2E_IMAGE` tag override for local runs.
2. **Remote Socket Proxy**
- File: [.docker/compose/docker-compose.remote.yml](.docker/compose/docker-compose.remote.yml)
- Pin `alpine/socat` by digest.
3. **Dev & Prod Compose**
- File: [.docker/compose/docker-compose.yml](.docker/compose/docker-compose.yml)
- File: [.docker/compose/docker-compose.dev.yml](.docker/compose/docker-compose.dev.yml)
- Decide whether to:
- Keep tags for local convenience, OR
- Provide commented tag+digest options and Renovate-managed examples.
### Renovate Configuration
1. **Enable Digest Pinning for Docker Compose**
- File: [.github/renovate.json](.github/renovate.json)
- Ensure docker digest pinning is enabled for compose images and tag+digest pairs are preserved.
2. **Add Custom Managers for Go Tools**
- Track pinned versions for `dlv` and `xcaddy` in Dockerfile.
- Track `REQUIRED_VERSION` for `golang.org/dl/goX.Y.Z@latest` exception to keep the target version current.
---
## Review Notes for Supporting Files
1. **.gitignore**
- No immediate changes required. If a new dependency lock manifest is introduced (e.g., `dependency-digests.json`), ensure it is not ignored.
2. **.dockerignore**
- No blocking issues found. Consider excluding any new digest manifest artifacts only if they are not required in image builds.
3. **codecov.yml**
- No changes required for dependency tracking. Coverage ignore patterns are acceptable for this effort.
4. **Dockerfile**
- Changes required (pin `@latest` tools, verify external downloads with checksums).
---
## Risks & Mitigations
1. **Digest Rotation**
- Risk: pinned digests require updates.
- Mitigation: Renovate updates digests on schedule.
2. **Checksum Source Reliability**
- Risk: upstream artifacts lack stable checksum URLs.
- Mitigation: use release checksums or vendor-provided signed assets; document exceptions.
3. **Local Developer Friction**
- Risk: digest pinning may slow dev iteration.
- Mitigation: keep optional tag paths or override vars for local use.
---
## Implementation Plan (Phased, Minimal Requests)
### Phase 1 — Inventory & Decision Map (Single Request)
**Objective:** Establish the canonical list of digest-tracked dependencies and confirm which files will be modified.
**Status:** Complete (dependency table added; dev/prod compose pinning decision set)
**Actions:**
- Create a dependency table in `docs/plans/current_spec.md` (this file) with:
- File path
- Dependency name
- Current pin state (tag, digest, checksum, latest)
- Target pin method
- Decide whether dev compose files are pinned or left flexible with documented overrides.
- **Owner:** DevOps
- **Decision Date:** 2026-01-30
- **Decision:** Pin dev/prod compose images with tag+digest defaults while allowing local overrides via env vars.
**Deliverables:**
- Finalized dependency inventory and pinning policy.
### Phase 2 — Pinning & Verification Updates (Single Request)
**Objective:** Apply digest pinning, version pinning, and checksum verification changes across build and CI surfaces.
**Actions:**
- Update Dockerfile stages:
- Pin `dlv` and `xcaddy` versions.
- Add checksum verification for GeoLite2 and CrowdSec tarball.
- Update compose images to digest form where required.
- Update workflow `docker run` test image to digest form.
- Update Renovate config to keep digests and Go tool versions fresh.
**Deliverables:**
- All dependencies in nightly path pinned or checksum-verified.
### Phase 3 — Validation & Guardrails (Single Request)
**Objective:** Ensure policy compliance and prevent regression.
**Actions:**
- Add documentation in `docs/` or `SECURITY.md` describing digest policy.
- Verify SBOM generation still succeeds with pinned dependencies.
- Add a lint check (required) to detect unpinned tags and `@latest` in CI-critical files.
- Scope files:
- `.github/workflows/*.yml`
- `.docker/compose/*.yml`
- `Dockerfile`
- `scripts/*.sh`
- Patterns to flag (non-exhaustive):
- `:latest` image tags (except explicitly documented local-only compose examples)
- `@latest` in Go tool installs (except `golang.org/dl/goX.Y.Z@latest`)
- Docker image references lacking `@sha256:` in CI/test contexts
**Deliverables:**
- Policy documentation and validation evidence.
1. WHEN GoReleaser builds darwin targets, THE SYSTEM SHALL use `-macos-none` Zig target (not `-macos-gnu`).
2. WHEN the Playwright workflow starts the Charon container, THE SYSTEM SHALL set `CHARON_EMERGENCY_BIND=0.0.0.0:2020` to ensure the emergency server is reachable.
3. WHEN constructing Docker image references, THE SYSTEM SHALL validate that the tag portion is non-empty before attempting to use it.
4. IF the PR number is empty in a PR-triggered workflow, THEN THE SYSTEM SHALL fail fast with a clear error message explaining the issue.
5. WHEN a feature branch contains `/` characters, THE SYSTEM SHALL sanitize the branch name by replacing `/` with `-` before using it as a Docker tag.
---
## Acceptance Criteria
1. All external images referenced by CI workflows or CI compose files are pinned by digest.
2. All Dockerfile external downloads are checksum-verified.
3. No `@latest` installs remain in Dockerfile or CI-critical scripts without explicit exception.
4. The Go toolchain shim exception is documented with compensating controls and Renovate visibility.
5. CI workflows capture and propagate self-built image digests for downstream usage.
6. Renovate can update digests and pinned tool versions automatically.
7. Documentation clearly states which files must use digests and why.
1. [ ] Nightly build completes successfully with darwin binaries
2. [ ] Playwright E2E tests pass with emergency server accessible on port 2020
3. [ ] Trivy scan passes with valid image reference for all trigger types
4. [ ] Workflow failures produce clear, actionable error messages
5. [ ] No regression in existing CI functionality
