fix(ci): make the dogfood gate .deed-aware - #80
Conversation
The dogfood gate enforced a format that no longer exists. Two defects, and
fixing only the first would have been a fake cure.
1. .githooks/validate-a2ml.sh was frozen at a pre-DEED revision (13,737 b) with
zero .deed references. Replaced with the canonical dual-accept body from
deed-ecosystem/validate-action (17,544 b), which dispatches on the DEED
s-expression head and keeps .a2ml passing as legacy. This repo's own
SPDX-License-Identifier line is preserved.
2. The detect step that GATES that validator counted only *.a2ml:
COUNT=$(find . -name '*.a2ml' ...)
- name: Validate A2ML manifests
if: steps.detect.outputs.count > 0
So on a repo that had migrated to .deed, COUNT would be 0, the validate step
would be SKIPPED, and the job would report green having validated nothing.
The selector now admits both extensions -- the same shape the K9 job in this
file already uses.
Edit 2 is behaviour-neutral today: this repo carries no .deed file, so COUNT is
unchanged. It is purely forward-correct.

| Layer / File(s) | Summary |
|---|---|
DEED identity and version rules .githooks/validate-a2ml.sh |
The validator recognises DEED heads and identity keywords. It accepts :schema-version and does not accept :registry-version. The AI-MANIFEST exemption applies only to .a2ml files. |
Path identity and file discovery .githooks/validate-a2ml.sh |
Structural identity covers machine-readable/ and .machine_readable/. Discovery scans .a2ml and .deed files. Empty manifest attestation blocks do not produce warnings. |
Dogfood gate manifest reporting .github/workflows/dogfood-gate.yml |
The workflow detects both formats, reports 0-AI-MANIFEST.deed as the authored manifest, and labels scorecard output with the DEED format while retaining legacy .a2ml support. |

- Line 274: The validation case pattern in the schema-version check must exempt
only legacy .a2ml files, not machine-readable or .machine_readable DEED files.
Update the relevant logic in validate-a2ml.sh so structural identity may still
be exempted where required, while DEED files continue to require
:schema-version.
- Line 199: Update the schema-version detection in the validation logic around
the line-matching condition to recognize :schema-version after a DEED head, such
as in a single-line form, while requiring a whitespace-delimited token boundary.
Preserve detection for the existing line-start form and avoid matching the
keyword as part of a larger token.

Check the root DEED manifest, not any validation candidate.
COUNT includes every .a2ml and .deed file, but the workflow requires ./0-AI-MANIFEST.deed. A nested file can therefore suppress the missing-manifest warning and earn the DEED scorecard point.
Use [ -f "./0-AI-MANIFEST.deed" ] for the warning, summary condition, and scorecard check. Keep the broad count for validator execution because legacy .a2ml files still validate.

CodeRabbit raised three findings on the first commit. All three are correct. 1. The step summary reported the combined .a2ml+.deed count as ".a2ml file(s)", and the scorecard row was renamed to "DEED manifest" while its status still came from a find matching .a2ml too - so a repo holding only legacy manifests scored a green DEED row. That is a label asserting one thing while its check asks another, which is the exact defect class this branch exists to cure. Fixed by aligning the LABELS to the check rather than narrowing the check: narrowing to .deed only would red-score essentially every repo in the estate today (19,477 tracked .a2ml against 15 .deed), and this branch is behaviour-neutral by design. 2. Both find sites now pass -type f. A directory named *.deed is not a manifest. 3. The validator's structural-identity exemption no longer waives the schema version for .deed. DEED is the live, grammar-bearing format; legacy .a2ml keeps the exemption. Proved by control: two files in one machine-readable directory differing only by extension now get different verdicts. Severity is unchanged (warning, and the gate invokes strict:false), so no repo can turn red on this.

Fix CI failures by removing a duplicate Rust import, formatting polarity code, making dogfood validation support DEED and legacy A2ML manifests, and preventing gate-triage comments from creating phantom scanner signatures. Also updates pinned actions, caps Dependabot PRs, removes the duplicate SonarQube workflow, and adds Gemini instruction discovery. This branch materially exceeds the stated PR #80 CI-fix scope because it includes several merged maintenance changes. Validation recorded in the commits: workspace check and Clippy passed, and all 128 workspace tests passed.

Why
This repo's Dogfood Gate enforced A2ML, a format that no longer exists. A2ML was
retired after a name clash with the ML community; the live s-expression format is
.deed, which has a grammar (DEED-GRAMMAR-SPEC) and is bound for IANA.There are two defects here, and fixing only the first would have been a fake cure.
1. The validator was frozen before the rename
.githooks/validate-a2ml.shwas vendored at 13,737 bytes by commitd5f229d(2026-07-27, "ci: vendor validation scripts and remove remote action pins") — six weeks
before the 09-03 DEED rename. It contains zero
.deedreferences.Replaced with the canonical dual-accept body from
hyperpolymath/deed-ecosystem/validate-action@f9d999b6(17,544 b), which dispatches onthe DEED s-expression head —
(estate-deed|repo-deed|estate-atlas-deed|praxis-deed)on thefirst form, per
DEED-GRAMMAR-SPEC <<concrete-syntax>>— and keeps.a2mlpassing aslegacy. This repo's own
SPDX-License-Identifierline is preserved, not overwritten.2. 🚨 The step that gates that validator counted only
*.a2mlOn a repo that had migrated to
.deed,COUNTwould be 0, the validate step would beskipped, and the job would report green having validated nothing. Upgrading the
validator alone would have been invisible.
The selector now admits both extensions — the same shape the K9 job in this very file
already uses (
find . \( -name '*.k9' -o -name '*.k9.ncl' \)).3. The gate was instructing maintainers to author the dead format
The warning and summary told every RSR repo to create
0-AI-MANIFEST.a2mland to runa2mliser init. Reworded to name.deedas the format to author,.a2mlas legacy.Measured, one denominator
Census across the 75 repos carrying a vendored
.githooks/validate-a2ml.sh(75 unique repos; an earlier figure of 79 was a row count — 4 slugs were duplicated by
two local checkouts reaching one remote):
*.a2mldeedat all.deedfile atorigin/main8f61f8da/ MPL-2.0echidna— 13,747 b /c1769fc4/ AGPL-3.0-or-laterWhy edit 2 is safe
It is behaviour-neutral today.
find A -o Bis a strict superset offind A, and0 of 75 repos carry a
.deedfile, soCOUNTis unchanged on every repo in thepopulation. The change is purely forward-correct: it stops the gate going silently green
the day a repo migrates.
Verification
bash -non the new validator: clean.python3 -c 'yaml.safe_load(...)'on the edited workflow: parses.before any write — and refuses (skips + flags) on any mismatch rather than overwriting an
unrecognised file.
echidnais handled by the same assert, which is what prevented ablanket copy from silently relicensing it AGPL-3.0-or-later → MPL-2.0.

Not changed here

.a2mlfile is renamed. Extension migration is explicitly held pending a dry-runmanifest (19,477 tracked
.a2mlvs 15.deed).# validate-a2ml.sh — A2ML manifest validation script. Left byte-identical to upstreamon purpose, so "is this repo at canonical?" stays answerable by md5. Flagged for an
upstream fix in
deed-ecosystem, where it corrects once for every consumer.🤖 Generated with Claude Code
