CI / build (push) Has been cancelled
v2.0: state enforcement, project scoping, harness integration
State Enforcement (v2.0):
- .state file as single source of truth for task phase
- Approval gates for research, decomposition, design, test_design
- status.py --transition refuses illegal phase transitions
- status.py --validate-folder detects out-of-order artifacts
- status.py --audit checks all tasks for violations
- status.py --create-task is the only valid way to create tasks
- Pre-v2.0 tasks without .state are UNTRACKED -- all commands refuse them
- New --upgrade command bootstraps .state files for existing tasks

Project Scoping:
- --project flag added to all status.py commands across 16+ files
- _find_project_dir errors instead of silently falling back to ~/.automaton/
- --scope-check marks framework files OUT_OF_SCOPE when working on a project
- Dashboard handlers use stored project_root instead of re-detecting from CWD
- Prompts reference ~/.automaton/scripts/vram_detect.py (not {project}/.automaton/)

Harness Integration:
- status.py --can-edit now supports project-level checks (no --task required)
- --can-edit --file checks file scope without --task
- --json output for machine-readable harness integration
- opencode plugin (plugins/automaton-guard/plugin.ts) intercepts edit/write
- Git pre-commit hook (scripts/git-hooks/pre-commit) blocks commits without task
- Formal integration contract (contracts/harness-integration.md)

Other:
- upgrade.sh delegates to status.py --upgrade instead of manual heuristics
- Phase prompts reference --project {project} for multi-project scoping
- 200 tests passing (14 new)

1.1 KiB

Implementation: Harden Dashboard Security

Summary

  • Added CORS headers (Access-Control-Allow-Origin, Methods, Headers) to all API responses via _send_json() and _send_error()
  • Added do_OPTIONS handler for CORS preflight requests
  • Added X-Content-Type-Options: nosniff header to all responses
  • Added MAX_POST_BODY = 65536 (64KB) content-length limit on POST review endpoint
  • Added MAX_REVIEW_COMMENT_LENGTH = 4096 character limit on review comments
  • Replaced inline onclick handlers in review buttons with data-task/data-status attributes + event delegation
  • Applied escapeHtml() to task.display_name in renderTaskCard()
  • Filesystem task name validation was already implemented in fix-verdict-parsing (R2 of this SPEC is done)

Changes

  • automaton/dashboard/ui/app.py: Added CORS headers, do_OPTIONS, content-length bounds, comment truncation
  • automaton/dashboard/html/dashboard.js: Replaced onclick handlers with data attributes, escaped display_name

Test Results

119 passed in 0.08s (full suite) Dashboard starts and serves correct CORS headers on all API responses
