Removes .github/workflows/adversarial-review.yml from org-governance-policy.json (requiredFiles and requiredWorkflowTriggers), deletes its baseline template, and deletes this repo's own copy.

Why

The control loop runs every 6 hours in remediate mode and copies templates/governance-baseline/ into all six governed orgs. The template it distributes performs no adversarial review:

claim	live evidence
CodeRabbit reviews regardless	chittymarket has no copy of this workflow; its PR #103 still got a CodeRabbit review
@copilot never answers	zero Copilot responses across 8 sampled chittymcp PRs
requestReviewers never takes effect	open PRs chittymcp#202 and #204 carry no pending requested reviewers
green regardless	the job reports success whether or not any review happens
noise	a fresh trigger comment on every synchronize, including every Dependabot PR

A check named Adversarial Review Orchestrator that always passes reads as review coverage that doesn't exist.

Why requirement and template move together

The loop's preflight marks any required file without a template as UNSATISFIABLE_GATE. Deleting only the per-repo copies would let remediation re-create them within six hours. Removing the requirement alone would leave an orphaned template.

Sequencing: the 11 other per-repo copies come out in follow-up PRs after this merges, so no repo is ever non-compliant in between.

Explicitly not touched

• CHITTYOS/chittyconfig's adversarial-review.yml is a different workflow: a fail-closed producer for gate.yaml's review/adversarial status, guarded by a test that fails if it ever posts success. Dropping the org requirement also takes it out of template remediation, which can only protect it.
• This repo's adversarial-review control-loop job and scripts/org-governance-adversarial-review.sh review governance posture and don't depend on the per-repo file.
• chittyconnect folded its variant into pr-security.yml long ago.

Verification

• No governed copy is behind a required orchestrate context (branch protection or rulesets), so removal can't block a PR.
• Unsatisfiable-gate preflight: 3 before, 3 after. This change adds none.

Pre-existing, out of scope, worth a decision

All 3 unsatisfiable gates are the onepassword-rotation-audit requirement (the workflow plus scripts/onepassword-rotation-audit.sh), which has no template. 1Password is retired as both lane and authority, so the loop runs in DEGRADED mode on every pass, enforcing a dead lane. That needs its own decision.

📝 Walkthrough

Walkthrough

The pull request deletes the adversarial review workflow from the repository and governance baseline. It also removes the workflow from required governance files and required workflow triggers.

Changes

Adversarial review workflow removal

Layer / File(s)	Summary
Remove workflow implementations .github/workflows/adversarial-review.yml, templates/governance-baseline/.github/workflows/adversarial-review.yml	Both adversarial-review.yml workflow definitions are deleted. Their reviewer-request, review-comment, permissions, triggers, and variable defaults are removed.
Update governance requirements .github/org-governance-policy.json	The governance policy no longer lists adversarial-review.yml in requiredFiles or requiredWorkflowTriggers.

Priority: ⬇️ Low

Estimated code review effort: 2 (Simple) | ~10 minutes

Change: Other

Merge Risk: 🟡 Moderate · up to b21c7

Governed pull requests will remain blocked waiting for the removed orchestrate check, so remove the stale requirement before merging.

🩺 Stability & Availability | 🟠 Major | ⚡ Quick win

Remove the stale required status check. .github/workflows/adversarial-review.yml was deleted, and the remaining adversarial-review job runs only for scheduled, repository-dispatch, or remediation events. It cannot emit Adversarial Review Orchestrator / orchestrate. The policy still applies this context to active organization rulesets, so governed pull requests remain blocked waiting for a status that no workflow produces.
