ci: retrigger codeql scan after alert 86 dismissal

Option 3 for slash-form mirror repo_id rows was pinned in code and test at
6c0926de; this adds the operator-facing half jatmn asked for. README and
SECURITY task-read bullets now state that mirror rows list for party readers
while get-by-id and GraphQL task fail closed for all callers.

 ## Toolchain and CI reality
 
 - MSRV is Rust 1.91 (`rust-version` in the workspace `Cargo.toml`). The MSRV CI job runs `cargo check --workspace --all-targets` on exactly 1.91, so check that an API you rely on is stable there; the full test suite runs on stable.
-- The PR workflow's jobs are `cargo fmt --check`, `cargo clippy --workspace --all-targets -- -D warnings`, `cargo test` (against Postgres), a release build, `cargo audit`, the MSRV check, and a Docker build. On a PR, `scripts/ci-surfaces.sh` runs each job only when the PR touches its inputs, and scopes `cargo test` and the release build to the touched crates plus every crate that depends on them. Root `Cargo.toml`/`Cargo.lock`/`.cargo/` changes run the Rust jobs (fmt, clippy, tests, release build, MSRV) on the whole workspace; every other job still runs only when its own inputs change. Edits to the CI wiring itself (`pr-checks.yml`, `codeql.yml`, `scripts/ci-surfaces.sh`), push to `main`, and the merge queue run every job on the whole workspace. Edits to any other workflow run none of these jobs on a PR; CodeQL only analyzes them as Actions code. Run `cargo test --workspace` locally regardless. The same script limits CodeQL (`codeql.yml`) to the languages a PR touches. The `main` branch ruleset currently requires one approving review but does not require these checks to pass before merge; a failing job should block review approval in practice, but nothing enforces that mechanically today.

 Known limitations:
 
-- Repository write authorization is one switch: `GITLAWB_ENFORCE_OWNER_PUSH`, which defaults to `true`. With it off — rolling upgrades only — a valid HTTP Signature identifies a pusher but does not authorize one, so every signed caller may push everywhere.
-- UCAN capabilities are consulted on the push path only. There, the chain's root issuer is anchored to the repository owner, so an owner-rooted, time-bounded delegation that names the repository grants scoped collaborator access for pushing to it, for the `git/push`, `*`, or `repo/admin` actions. A `*` *resource* is refused: a delegation must name the repository it applies to, so it cannot grow to cover repos created later. Push-only cuts the other way too: a delegation grants no read access, so on a private repository the delegate must also be a reader (`gl visibility set`) — the two gates a push crosses are described in [`docs/RUN-A-NODE.md`](docs/RUN-A-NODE.md). The rest is unchanged: there is no revocation path, `nb` constraints are refused rather than interpreted, and no other route — reads, pull requests, issues, agents — consults capabilities at all.
+- Repository write authorization is secure by default: `GITLAWB_ENFORCE_OWNER_PUSH` defaults to `true`, so a valid HTTP Signature identifies a pusher and the node additionally requires that pusher to be the repository owner. Set `GITLAWB_ENFORCE_OWNER_PUSH=false` only for the duration of a rolling upgrade whose pushers are not yet the repo owner. Authentication is not authorization on its own (anyone can mint a `did:key` and sign), so owner enforcement is the only thing that prevents every signed caller from pushing to every repository, private ones included.
+- UCAN proof chains are validated when supplied, but UCAN capabilities are not consulted by write authorization and the root issuer is not independently trust-anchored. UCANs therefore do not yet grant scoped collaborator access.
 - Agent lifecycle revocation is not enforced by HTTP Signature authorization; do not rely on removing or revoking an agent record to block a compromised signer.
 - Task list/get reads (REST and GraphQL) are repository/task-gated and omit `ucan_token`. Slash-form `repo_id` rows (mirror-hosted tasks) can appear on list for the delegator or trimmed assignee, but `GET /api/v1/tasks/{id}` and GraphQL `task` fail closed for every caller because there is no local repository backing to serve. Read visibility is not a blanket data-classification boundary: IPFS-pin and Arweave-anchor listings are not repository-gated; withheld path names can be visible to a root reader; and later visibility changes cannot retract content already announced or externally anchored.

 | `GITLAWB_P2P_BOOTSTRAP` | Comma-separated libp2p multiaddrs. |
 | `GITLAWB_P2P_KEY` | Path to the node's persistent libp2p identity key file, which fixes the PeerId across restarts. Must name a key file inside a directory, such as `/data/keys/p2p.key` or `./keys/p2p.key`. Two kinds of problem are handled differently. A value that cannot name a securable key file at all (a bare filename, `..` traversal, a trailing `/`, the filesystem root, or a `~/` path that escapes home) is refused before the node binds, so the process exits. Anything wrong with the storage itself (a symlinked or non-directory parent, an unsafe ancestor or working directory, an unreadable or malformed key) leaves p2p off while HTTP keeps serving; the node logs it at error level as `p2p_identity_key_load_failed` and sets the `gitlawb_p2p_identity_key_load_failed` metric to 1. Note that `/health` still reports healthy in that state, so alert on the log event or the metric rather than on the health check. Correcting the storage and restarting restores the same PeerId. On Unix a new key is created `0600` inside a `0700` directory. A key directory that grants access beyond its owner is tightened to `0700` on start; one that is closed too far is refused with a `chmod 700` remedy rather than widened, since a directory locked down on purpose is an operator decision. Rotate the key only when the node logs that the directory was group- or world-writable (or the key file itself was group- or world-readable). An ordinary `0755` directory is tightened too, but others could not read a `0600` key or replace its directory entry. An existing key file is never modified: one with group or other bits set is rejected (`chmod 600`), and so is one this node cannot read. On other platforms no permissions are enforced. Default `~/.gitlawb/p2p.key`; point it at a persistent volume when running in a container. |

-///      repo record is data the node holds independently of the token, so a
-///      self-minted chain cannot satisfy it.
-///   2. Every link is bounded. There is no revocation path, so an unbounded link
-///      is a permanent grant.
-///   3. Every link — the leaf and every proof behind it — carries an
-///      unconstrained push-class capability naming this repository. That is
-///      [`gitlawb_core::ucan::Ucan::chain_grants_push_to`], the same rule
-///      `gl ucan import` applies before storing a token and `git-remote-gitlawb`
-///      applies before minting an invocation, so what one boundary accepts the
-///      next does not refuse.
-///
-/// (3) walks the whole chain on purpose. Refusing a wildcard leaf alone did
-/// nothing: `is_attenuated_by` accepts a concrete child under a `*` parent, and
-/// that narrowing was exactly what the helper performed, so one owner-issued
-/// `with: "*"` proof let a delegate mint a concrete leaf for ANY repository the
-/// owner had — or created later — and both the chain check and the owner-root
-/// check passed. A delegation's scope is fixed when it is issued.

-/// the raw-content CID. The opportunistic repair on the pin path only fires when a push

-/// Delete imported `refs/gitlawb/*` refs outside the two exempt subtrees.
-///
-/// Mirrors import whatever the origin advertises (`+refs/*:refs/*`), and
-/// `transfer.hideRefs` is a serve-side knob: a repo's own `git fetch` never
-/// consults local hideRefs, and origins hide only `requests/` anyway. So a
-/// planted `refs/gitlawb/<other>` blob ref — creatable on any pre-gate node —
-/// lands on every mirror and then trips `assert_all_refs_are_commits` closed,
-/// wedging serving on each one. Prune at import instead: after clone/fetch,
-/// list `refs/gitlawb` and delete every ref outside the exempt subtrees
-/// (negative refspecs cannot re-include them, so post-import deletion is the
-/// mechanism that works).
-///
-/// Callers map a transient prune error to [`PruneFailed`] so the batch
-/// defers the row (stays `pending`, retried next tick) instead of failing
-/// it: a failed row would leave a possibly-wedged mirror unretried until
-/// the next peer announcement. Deterministic refusals (identity mismatch,
-/// malformed enumeration) map to [`PruneInvalid`], which fails terminally
-/// since no retry can clear them.
-///
-/// Enumeration is `git show-ref` (no pattern), parsed as raw bytes: refnames
-/// cannot contain newlines, so one line per ref is lossless even for
-/// non-UTF-8 names, which a lossy decode would miss. The `<sha> SP <refname>`
-/// structure (not `for-each-ref --format=%(refname)`, which carries no object
-/// id) is what lets the parser width-check 40-hex SHA-1 vs 64-hex SHA-256
-/// and reject anything else-shaped instead of skipping it.
-///
-/// Fail-closed throughout: the exit code is classified (only `1` with empty
-/// output means "no refs"; anything else non-zero, e.g. 128 on a missing
-/// repo, is fatal, since a silent skip would leave an imported evil ref in
-/// place while the sync reports success), and any line that is not
-/// `<hex-sha> SP <refname>` — 40-hex SHA-1 or 64-hex SHA-256, which a sha256
-/// mirror inherits from its origin — fails the sync rather than being
-/// skipped into an unpruned wedge.
-/// Bounded git spawn for the prune below: `kill_on_drop` plus a hard timeout
-/// so a wedged child cannot stall a mirror import or sweep forever. The
-/// refname delete runs on exact bytes, so args arrive as `OsStr`, not `str`.
-/// Non-PruneInvalid failures (including a timeout) wrap as PruneFailed and
-/// defer for retry, matching the transient classification below.

-/// Issue #26 split 1 — namespace gate and pre-git refusal lifecycle.
-///
-/// The push gate (repos.rs) must deny:
-/// 1. Any ref-update line that fails UTF-8 decode (the raw body is passed verbatim
-///    to git receive-pack, and git accepts refnames with bytes >= 0x80; the gate
-///    never sees these refs, no durable child row exists, and under requests/issues/
-///    the lossy for-each-ref decode still matches the narrowed exemption).
-/// 2. The bare `refs/gitlawb` name (the `starts_with("refs/gitlawb/")` check misses it).
-///
-/// Every explicit pre-git refusal must call `refuse_receive_pack_before_git` to
-/// terminalize the intent aggregate in one transaction, or a dropped future between
-/// the intent insert and `receive_pack` strands a `received` + `prepared` aggregate
-/// that is never purged, never promotable, and poisons its tuple.
-///
-/// The visibility exemption (visibility_pack.rs) was narrowed to `requests/` and
-/// `issues/` only. The push gate is the premise that narrowing relies on (the comment
-/// at visibility_pack.rs:340), so tests must prove:
-/// - A `refs/gitlawb/<other>` ref pointing at a blob is denied on push.
-/// - A stray `refs/gitlawb/<other>` blob ref planted in the pack path fails closed.
-///
-/// Source gates below pin the wiring; behavioral proofs live next to the code:
-/// `parse_ref_updates_refuses_non_utf8_command_line` and
-/// `internal_namespace_gate_covers_bare_name_and_subtree` (api/repos.rs),
-/// `planted_non_exempt_gitlawb_blob_ref_fails_closed` (git/visibility_pack.rs),
-/// and the mirror import prune
-/// `prune_removes_non_exempt_gitlawb_refs_and_keeps_exempt` (sync.rs).

-A `git push` crosses two independent gates, and this section is about the second:

-1. **Read visibility**, enforced twice on a push: on the `info/refs` advertisement

-   only the DIDs in its reader list pass, on a public repository as much as on
-   a private one. With no matching rule the repository's own flag decides:
-   public admits everyone, private denies every non-reader with the same 404 a
-   missing repository gets. A UCAN plays no part here — a delegation grants
-   no read access.
-2. **Push authorization**, on the `git-receive-pack` POST: the owner, or an
-   owner-rooted, bounded, repository-scoped push delegation.
-
-Both must pass. With no `/` rule on a public repository the first is open to

-  both the full `did:key:z6Mk…` form and its bare `z6Mk…` suffix.

+### Caution: delegated and CI keys are non-owners
 
-### Delegating push to a CI agent
+Push authorization is owner-only today. A UCAN `git/push` capability is verified
+but **not yet honored for authorization**, so a delegated key cannot push while
+this gate is on, even when it holds a valid capability for the repo.
 
-The owner issues a capability, the agent stores it, and the git helper presents it
-automatically on every push:
-
-Before anything below, set `GITLAWB_KEY` to an **absolute** path to the
-identity PEM (`gl identity new` prints it). `gl ucan import` and
-`git-remote-gitlawb` both resolve the delegation store from that key's parent
-directory, so do not pass `import --dir` pointing anywhere else: an import that
-succeeds elsewhere leaves the push unsigned. The README and `.env.example`
-cover the layout.
-
-```bash
-# Owner, once per agent per repo:
-gl ucan delegate --to did:key:z6MkAgent… \
-  --cap gitlawb://repos/<owner-did>/<repo> --can git/push --expiry 168
-
-# Agent:
-gl ucan import <token-or-path>
-git push origin main          # git-remote-gitlawb attaches it as X-Ucan
-```
-
-`--expiry` is measured in hours: 168 is 7 days, 720 is 30.
-
-`<repo>` is the repository's canonical name: the record name without a `.git`
-suffix. A trailing `.git` in the capability (or pasted from the remote URL) is
-stripped the same way the git remote strips it, at most once, so
-`gitlawb://repos/<owner-did>/myrepo.git` delegates to `myrepo`.
-
-What the node requires, and why:
-
-| Requirement | Reason |
-|---|---|
-| The chain's **root issuer** is the repo owner | A `did:key` is self-certifying, so anyone can mint a chain. The owner is the only anchor the node holds independently of the token. |
-| **Every link** names this repository | A delegation's scope is fixed when it is issued. The node walks the whole proof chain, so a `*` resource authorizes nothing — not in the leaf and not in any proof behind it. Refusing only the leaf would not have been enough: attenuation permits narrowing a `*` parent to a concrete child, so one wildcard grant could otherwise reach every repository the owner has or later creates. `gl ucan delegate` therefore refuses to issue a push-class `*` at all. |
-| **Every link carries an expiry** | There is no revocation path yet. An unbounded delegation could never be withdrawn once leaked, so the node refuses one outright. `gl ucan delegate` defaults to 30 days. |
-| No `nb` constraints | Constraints are reserved but not yet interpreted, so a capability carrying them authorizes nothing rather than silently granting more than the owner intended. |
-| The token is addressed to the pusher | The node requires the proof's audience to equal the invocation's issuer, and `gl ucan import` refuses a token addressed to another identity rather than storing one that can only fail. |
-
-**Private repositories and `/` rules.** A delegation clears the push gate
-only. The `info/refs` advertisement that `git push` fetches first is read-gated,
-and a UCAN grants no read access, so on a private repository the delegate must
-also be a reader — and the same holds on a public repository that has a `/`
-rule, because a matching rule is an allow-list that replaces the public flag:
-
-```bash
-# Owner: check the existing rules first — a `/` rule you already set has a mode
-# you want to keep, and `set` replaces its reader list wholesale.
-gl visibility list --repo <repo>
-
-# Then grant read to the agent AND every existing reader on `/`. The mode
-# (`a`/`b`) must match what `list` showed; only reach for `b` when no `/`
-# rule exists yet.
-gl visibility set / --repo <repo> --mode <a|b> --readers did:key:z6MkReader1,did:key:z6MkAgent…
-```
-
-Without it the agent's push fails with a 404 — the same answer a stranger gets,
-because a private repository is not confirmed to exist for a non-reader. A
-normal `git push` sees it at the `info/refs` advertisement; a client that skips
-the advertisement sees the identical denial on the `git-receive-pack` POST
-itself. Either way the delegation is valid and would clear the push gate: the
-read gate is what refused it. On a public repository with no `/` rule this
-step is unnecessary. The two gates are
-independent in the other direction as well: a reader with no delegation is still
-refused on the push.
-
-**One repository per token.** `gl ucan delegate` issues one capability per token,
-and `gl ucan import` stores one repository per token. A hand-built token that
-names several repositories is refused at import rather than applied to some of
-them; ask the owner for one delegation per repository.
-
-**A delegation does not override branch protection.** A protected branch is your
-explicit marker that even routine writes should stop, so a delegate is still
-refused there and only the owner may push. That is deliberate: if a delegation
-overrode it, issuing any capability would weaken every protection you had set.
-
-**Withdrawal is by expiry only.** There is no revocation today. If a delegated
-token leaks, it remains valid until its `exp`, and the only faster remedy is
-rotating the owner DID the repository is keyed on. Choose `--expiry` accordingly —
-short lifetimes reissued often are safer than one long-lived grant.
+If your automation pushes under its own DID rather than the owner's, it will start
+getting 403s. Either have it push as the owner, or set
+`GITLAWB_ENFORCE_OWNER_PUSH=false` until scoped collaborator / UCAN-delegated push
+rights land — that work is what removes this trade-off.
