chore: CI lint jobs, templates, policy files - #47

Action majors move to v6 so the runner stops warning about Node 20. Every errcheck and staticcheck finding from the lint run is fixed at the call site, not suppressed through config. Signed-off-by: NovusEdge <novusedge0@gmail.com>

The spec asks this config to enable nothing that argues about style. staticcheck's ST and QF families do: QF1001 rewrote an allowlist test in qemu/sendkey.go into its De Morgan form, against the comment above it. errcheck on fmt.Fprint to stdout added 128 discard prefixes a CLI cannot act on.

builders, and log writers, subject to error checking.
In `@CONTRIBUTING.md`:
- Around line 21-22: Update the DCO guidance in CONTRIBUTING.md to match the
repository’s actual merge gate: either enable and require the DCO GitHub App
check, or remove the claim that missing Signed-off-by trailers block merges.
Ensure the documented commit sign-off requirement and enforced check are
consistent.
In `@internal/core/access_test.go`:
- Line 98: Update both deferred cleanup closures around Logs so each captures
the current reader by passing r as a closure argument, ensuring each *os.File is

actions/checkout v6 persist-credentials default true official documentation
💡 Result:
In version 6 of the actions/checkout GitHub Action, the default value for the persist-credentials input is true [1][2]. When persist-credentials is set to true (the default), the action configures the Git repository with the authentication token or SSH key, which allows subsequent steps in your workflow to run authenticated Git commands (such as git fetch or git push) without additional configuration [2][3]. In version 6, security for this feature was improved: credentials are now stored in a separate file under $RUNNER_TEMP rather than directly in the local.git/config file [2][4]. The token is removed during post-job cleanup [2]. If you do not require these credentials for your workflow steps, you can opt-out by explicitly setting persist-credentials to false in your workflow file [2][3].

🌐 Web query:
actions/checkout v6 credentials separate file RUNNER_TEMP security untrusted pull request persist-credentials
💡 Result:
In actions/checkout v6, the persist-credentials input, which defaults to true, has been updated to improve credential security by storing Git credentials in a separate configuration file under the runner's temporary directory ($RUNNER_TEMP) rather than directly in the repository's.git/config file [1][2][3]. This mechanism uses Git's includeIf functionality to conditionally include the credentials file when Git operates within the repository's directory [4][5]. This change is intended to isolate sensitive tokens and reduce the risk of credential leakage, such as in scenarios involving artifact publishing or accidental exposure of the.git directory [6]. However, this implementation has introduced several technical considerations for users: 1. Security and Trust: While v6 improves how credentials are stored, the persist-credentials=true setting remains a consideration for untrusted code [1]. When using workflows that check out code from forks (e.g., in pull_request_target scenarios), extra caution is required to prevent "pwn request" vulnerabilities [1]. In such untrusted contexts, setting persist-credentials: false is often recommended to opt out of automatic credential persistence [1][3]. 2. Docker Container Actions: A known limitation exists where the credentials file stored in $RUNNER_TEMP may not be accessible inside Docker container actions, causing Git authentication to fail [7]. This issue persists even with updated runners, as the container environment may not have the necessary path mappings or visibility into $RUNNER_TEMP [7]. 3. Self-Hosted Runners and Worktrees: Because the includeIf directive relies on specific paths (such as /github/workspace/), it may be incompatible with non-GitHub platforms or custom environments where those paths do not exist [4]. Additionally, the use of Git worktrees can lead to authentication failures because the path-based includeIf condition may not match the worktree's location, although updates in newer patch versions have aimed to address some of these edge cases [5]. For high-security workflows or environments where these compatibility issues arise, you can disable the behavior by setting persist-credentials: false in your workflow step and manually configuring authentication if needed [1][3].

golangci-lint v2 errcheck exclude-functions documentation exact function name
💡 Result:
In golangci-lint, you can exclude specific functions from errcheck analysis by using the exclude-functions setting within your configuration file [1][2]. This setting accepts a list of specific, fully qualified function or method signatures that should be ignored when checking for unchecked errors [1][3]. Configuration Syntax The configuration should be defined under linters-settings (or linters.settings in newer versions) within your .golangci.yml file [1][4]: linters: settings: errcheck: exclude-functions: - io/ioutil.ReadFile - io.Copy(*bytes.Buffer) - io.Copy(os.Stdout) Supported Signature Formats The exclude-functions list requires exact, fully qualified function signatures [3]. The supported formats are as follows: 1. Functions: package.FunctionName (e.g., encoding/json.Marshal) [5][3]. 2. Methods with value receivers: (package.Receiver).MethodName [5][3]. 3. Methods with pointer receivers: (*package.Receiver).MethodName [5][3]. Additional Exclusion Logic - Argument-Specific Exclusions: You can further restrict exclusions by adding a suffix in the form (TYPE) to the function name, which will exclude the call only if the first argument matches the specified TYPE [3]. Special suffixes like (os.Stdout) and (os.Stderr) are also supported to exclude calls only when those specific literals are used as the first argument [3]. - Built-in Exclusions: By default, errcheck includes an internal list of standard library functions that are documented to never return errors [5][3]. To disable this default behavior and rely solely on your custom exclude-functions list, you can set disable-default-exclusions: true [1][2]. Note: Older configuration options such as exclude (pointing to a file) and ignore have been deprecated in favor of exclude-functions [4].

Scope errcheck exclusions to CLI output.
The global entries also suppress errors from QEMU connections, files, cloud-init builders, and log writers. CLI functions receive generic io.Writer values, so use explicit _ = assignments for intended CLI writes and handle errors elsewhere. Remove the global exclusions.

Capture each reader when registering deferred cleanup.
Logs returns an *os.File. Because r is reassigned, both deferred closures close the second file, leaving the first file descriptor open. Pass r as a closure argument in both defers.

What changed
golangci-lint and shellcheck jobs in CI, action majors on v6, dependabot, a manual e2e workflow on a self-hosted KVM runner, PR and issue templates, CODEOWNERS, SECURITY.md, CODE_OF_CONDUCT.md, CLI conventions as core-api.md §12,
just lint, andjust setupinstalling the git hooks. Lint findings already on main are fixed here.The linter config enables errcheck, staticcheck, govet, unused and misspell, with staticcheck's ST and QF style families off and errcheck not asked about writes to the CLI's own stdout.
Why
An outside contributor gets the same gate a maintainer runs, and the repository carries the files an OSS project needs before recipe contributions open. The conventions in core-api.md §12 are what the four feature plans that follow are reviewed against.
