Summary

  • Add exact-name, default-allow environment access policy for Jinja env().
  • Enforce blocked lookups before process environment reads, with bounded diagnostics and tracing.
  • Wire allow/block entries through TOML, NETSUKE_ configuration, CLI flags, manifest loading, and graph generation.
  • Prevent primary project configuration from widening the environment allowlist while retaining cumulative block rules.

Closes #666

Validation

  • make check-fmt
  • make lint
  • make doc-coverage
  • make test
  • make markdownlint
  • make nixie
  • coderabbit review --agent

Summary by Sourcery

Control manifest access to process environment variables with configurable exact-name allow and block policies.

New Features:

  • Add exact-name allow and block policies for environment variables accessed by manifest Jinja env().
  • Expose environment policy configuration through TOML, NETSUKE_ variables, CLI flags, manifest loading, and graph generation.

Bug Fixes:

  • Prevent blocked environment lookups from reaching the process environment reader or exposing variable names and values in diagnostics and tracing.
  • Prevent primary-project allow rules from widening operator environment access while preserving cumulative block rules.

Enhancements:

  • Preserve default-allow compatibility without an effective allowlist, with block rules taking precedence and platform-aware name matching.
  • Add localized blocked-access diagnostics and public policy-aware manifest loading APIs.

Documentation:

  • Document manifest environment policy configuration, precedence, compatibility behavior, and security considerations across user, developer, migration, and audit documentation.

Tests:

  • Add unit, integration, CLI, graph, BDD, snapshot, property-based, and public API coverage for environment policy behavior and configuration merging.

Chores:

  • Update localized CLI help and manifest diagnostics for environment access controls.

Summary

Add an exact-name environment access policy for Jinja env() lookups.

  • Support env_allow_var and env_block_var through TOML, NETSUKE_ variables, and repeatable CLI flags.
  • Preserve default-allow behaviour when no list is configured.
  • Make non-empty allowlists restrictive and give blocklists precedence.
  • Prevent blocked lookups from reading process environment values.
  • Keep diagnostics fixed, localised, and free of variable names and values.
  • Prevent primary-project allow entries from widening the effective policy.
  • Pass the policy through manifest loading, build, run, and graph generation.
  • Add unit, integration, BDD, CLI, property-based, snapshot, and documentation coverage.
  • Document that the policy reduces secret ingress but does not make rendered output safe to log.

Add ADR-026, “Manifest environment access policy”, and update the related user, developer, migration, sample configuration, and security audit documentation.

Walkthrough

The change adds exact-name allowlists and blocklists for manifest env() access. It wires policy from configuration and CLI inputs into manifest loading, blocks reads before process access, adds redacted diagnostics, and documents and tests the behaviour.

Changes

Manifest environment access policy

Layer / File(s) Summary
Configuration and policy inputs
src/cli/..., src/localization/..., docs/...
Adds env_allow_var and env_block_var configuration and CLI inputs. Lists append in configuration order. Project allow entries are quarantined. Localised diagnostics and help text are added.
Policy enforcement and manifest API
src/manifest/...
Adds exact-name policy evaluation. Empty allowlists preserve default allow. Non-empty allowlists enable default deny. Blocklists override allowlists. Blocked reads fail before EnvReader access with fixed diagnostics.
Runtime policy propagation
src/runner/..., src/cli_l10n*
Bundles network, environment, and resource policies in ManifestLoadInputs. Build, graph, and generation paths pass the bundle into manifest loading.
Integration and regression coverage
tests/..., .config/nextest.toml
Adds coverage for policy matching, redacted errors, CLI parsing, configuration precedence, BDD flows, graph and generation commands, public loader APIs, documentation examples, and test scheduling.

Full details: Observability

Explanation

The new blocked env() branch is at the correct decision point and emits a bounded failure_kind="blocked" trace without variable names or values. However, it introduces a new manifest-load failure outcome without a production-visible metric. The PR changes no telemetry or observability files. Existing template-render metrics only record generic success/error labels, and ConfigMetricsRecorder rejects those metric names, so they do not provide an operational count for blocked lookups. The blocked error also occurs before runner graph-generation telemetry starts. This prevents maintainers from measuring the new error rate in production.

Resolution

Add a production-visible, bounded counter at the environment lookup boundary, such as netsuke_manifest_env_lookups_total with a fixed outcome vocabulary covering success, blocked, not_present, and not_unicode. Register the metric and allow it in ConfigMetricsRecorder. Keep variable names and values out of labels. Add tests that verify blocked lookups increment the bounded metric and that the metric is retained by the production recorder.


Allow lists guide the names that pass,
Block lists stop the hidden class.
The reader waits behind the gate,
Safe errors leave names out of state.
CLI and manifests now agree,
Policy flows from tree to sea.

Reviewer's Guide

Adds a default-compatible, exact-name policy for manifest env() access, enforcing decisions before process reads and threading operator-controlled allow/block rules through configuration, CLI, manifest loading, and graph generation while preventing primary projects from widening access.

Use the repository’s Oxford spelling in the audit and the established
Dutch technical term for the Jinja environment helper.
Express the configuration-layer matrix as reusable test data so the
precedence test remains readable and satisfies the CodeScene method-size
rule without changing its coverage.
Prove that a project block rule overrides an operator allow rule, and
align the Russian environment helper description with the block flag.
Describe list-valued configuration sources, migration behaviour, and the manifest environment ownership and enforcement boundary for contributors.
Add the required documented-example marker so the guide configuration fence is included in the documentation checks.
Add the required documented-example marker so the serialized environment configuration fence is included in the guide checks.
Add the required documented-example marker so the repeated environment policy flags are covered by the guide checks.
Keep the documented-example registry aligned with the three newly marked environment policy examples.
Apply Windows environment-name semantics to policy matching and keep the
policy domain free of localized presentation data. Cover unlisted active
allowlist lookups so blocked readers, names, and values remain unreachable.
Keep the established path-loader adapters permissive and expose a separate
ManifestEnvironment entry point for policy-aware callers. Preserve JSON-mode
reporting for malformed project environment policy and compile-check both
public loader surfaces.
Drive the matching allowlist entry from operator environment configuration so
the regression test proves a project block rule still takes precedence.
Share platform-normalized policy insertion and denied-lookup assertions to
keep the access-control boundary clear and satisfy the CodeScene health gate.
Drop the compile-only loader results explicitly so the external API fixture
remains clear under strict must-use linting.
Register `manifest_environment_embedder_fixture_compiles` with the
`nested-cargo-builds` Nextest group. It consumes `compile_public_api_fixture`,
which reaches `NetsukeRlib::build()`, so it spawns a child Cargo build and must
not run beside the other build-capable fixtures on a four-vCPU coverage runner.
`tests/workflow_contracts/nextest_child_cargo_group_test.py` discovers that
reachability and fails the contract until the override names the test.
`make lint` failed in `lint-whitaker` because three modules exceeded the
400-line `module-max-lines` boundary after this branch's additions:

- `src/cli/config.rs` (405 lines) — extracted the post-merge validation
  helpers into `src/cli/config_validation.rs`, following the existing
  `manifest_budget_config.rs` precedent.
- `src/cli_l10n.rs` (401 lines) — extracted the Clap
  argument-identifier-to-localization-key lookup tables into
  `src/cli_l10n_flag_keys.rs`.
- `src/manifest/mod.rs` (446 lines) — extracted the `from_path*` loader
  family and its compatibility adapters into `src/manifest/path_loaders.rs`,
  re-exported so the public API is unchanged.

Each extraction keeps the moved items' visibility and behaviour identical;
the loader chain, the `NO_INPUT_VALIDATION_REASON` constant, and every
existing entry point remain where their consumers already reach them.
Add ADR-026 to record why project environment policy stays below the
operator ceiling: the exact-name allow and block rule, the
primary-project quarantine, and enforcement before the reader runs.

Drop the stale `assertion_line` key from the release-help metadata
snapshot so it stops churning on unrelated edits, and extend the
compile-pass UI fixture to type-check the new public
`from_str_with_env_and_policy` entry point alongside the existing
loader adapters.
Hold the exact-match rule with near-miss policy cases: an allowlist
entry for `CI` must not admit `CI_EXTRA`, and a `GITHUB_TOKEN` block
must not reach `GITHUB_TOKEN_EXTRA` or `TOKEN`. Prefix semantics
satisfied every previous case, so only these near misses pin the rule.

Cover the `generate` policy call site, which is separate from the
already-covered `graph` one. A generate-path regression that dropped
the CLI policy previously left the whole suite green.
Adding `env_access_policy` pushed two runner loaders past the
`too-many-arguments` ceiling, and the previous commit bought compliance
with an `#[expect]` on each. That defeats the point of the ceiling:
`clippy.toml` sets it to mirror CodeScene's, so suppressing it locally
hides exactly the finding the configuration exists to surface.

Group the trusted-configuration seams into `ManifestLoadInputs` and let
`from_cli` resolve them, the way `manifest::ManifestParse` already
bundles the parse path. Both loaders drop from five arguments to three
and both expectations come out, so the ceiling is met by shape rather
than by silence. Resolving the bundle also collects the network-policy
context once, at a single site, instead of at each call site.
Four review findings were verified against the current source before
being actioned. Three hold; one does not.

The developers guide called the injected reader's policy "the selected
policy". It is not selected: `from_path_with_policy_and_env` and its
limits sibling pass `EnvAccessPolicy::default()`, which is permissive
for compatibility. State that, and point at the environment-aware
entry points that do carry the caller's policy.

The users guide named fetch-policy fields as the sole exception to
ordinary precedence. Primary-project `env_allow_var` entries are
removed before policy composition too, so they cannot widen the
allowlist or activate default-deny. Readers could otherwise infer that
project allow entries override operator configuration.

`from_path`'s `# Errors` section omitted template rendering, which
reaches it through the environment-aware loader it delegates to.

In `cli_l10n_flag_keys.rs`, `[`super::cli_l10n`]` cannot resolve: the
file is a `#[path]`-declared child of `cli_l10n.rs`, so `super` already
is `cli_l10n` and the link looked for a `cli_l10n::cli_l10n` that does
not exist. `cargo doc` runs under `-D warnings` in `make lint`, so this
was a live gate failure, not a style nit.

Not actioned: the claim that vector environment values also accept
comma-separated form. That describes `ortho_config`'s `CsvEnv`, which
netsuke never uses — no reference to it exists in `src/`. Netsuke
builds its own `EnvironmentLayer` over `figment::value::Value`'s
`FromStr`, which parses JSON-shaped text and otherwise falls back to a
plain string; it never splits on commas. A probe against the built
binary agrees: `NETSUKE_ENV_ALLOW_VAR='PROBE_A,PROBE_B'` leaves the
lookup blocked, while the bare `PROBE_A` and the JSON array both
succeed. Documenting comma support would therefore be wrong.

Gates: make check-fmt, make typecheck, make lint, and make test all
pass on this commit.
The pre-merge Observability check is right that the access policy added a
new manifest-load failure outcome with nothing operational to measure it.
A refusal is the whole point of ADR-026, and the accompanying tracing
event is neither aggregated nor retained by the application recorder, so
an operator could not answer "how often is the policy refusing?".

Count every lookup at the one place a lookup can happen.
`env_var_with` in `src/manifest/env_reader.rs` is the registered `env()`
boundary, and ADR-026 already places enforcement there, so
`env_telemetry::record_env_lookup` composes with all four exits and
returns each result unchanged rather than restating the mapping. The
series is `netsuke_manifest_env_lookups_total`, labelled by the closed
`outcome` vocabulary `success`, `blocked`, `not_present`, and
`not_unicode`; `outcome` is a `&'static str` chosen from those constants
and a debug assertion holds the call sites to it.

Bounded and redacted by construction, not by convention. The variable
name and any value it resolved to never reach a label: names routinely
identify credentials and a permitted value can carry secret material.
`ConfigMetricsRecorder` admits exactly that one-label series, so a
foreign label name, an extra label, or an out-of-vocabulary value stays
unretained instead of entering the shutdown snapshot.

The docs keep pace: ADR-009 gains the boundary as a third addendum
alongside the template-render and runner-structure ones, and the design,
user, and developer guides name the counter and what it does not carry.

`from_path_with_policy`'s `# Errors` section omitted parsing, which it
reaches through the loader it delegates to; it now names read, render,
and parse. The inline finding also asked for a "Triage:" tag on the
comment. There is no such convention for rustdoc `# Errors` sections in
this repository — `Triage:` appears once, as a bolded marker in the
users-guide JSON-schema section for consumers — so adding it to a
function's error documentation would invent a convention rather than
follow one.

Gates: make check-fmt, make lint, make typecheck, and make test all pass,
with the new telemetry cases and the recorder retention case confirmed
executed rather than skipped.

@coderabbitai The Observability warning is now implemented, not just planned. The counter landed in commit aa7e5b38 (Meter the env() lookup boundary and settle two reviewed nits (#666)), replayed onto origin/main as a859a3e3.

Production-visible and bounded. src/manifest/env_telemetry.rs adds netsuke_manifest_env_lookups_total, labelled by the closed vocabulary success, blocked, not_present, and not_unicode. record_env_lookup composes with all four exits of env_var_with in src/manifest/env_reader.rs — the registered env() boundary that ADR-026 already designates as the enforcement point — and returns each result unchanged rather than restating the error mapping. The label value is a &'static str drawn from the module's constants, and a debug_assert! holds call sites to the vocabulary.

Registered and admitted. describe_counter! is guarded by std::sync::Once. ConfigMetricsRecorder in src/observability_recorder.rs gained ENV_LOOKUP_TOTAL in accepts_name and an accepts_counter_registration arm of exact_labels(key, &[(OUTCOME_LABEL, &ENV_LOOKUP_OUTCOME_VALUES)]), so exactly that one-label series is retained and everything else — a foreign label name, an extra or missing label, or an out-of-vocabulary value — stays a noop handle outside the snapshot.

No names or values in labels. The variable name and the value it resolved to are absent by construction. Environment variable names routinely identify credentials, and a permitted value can carry secret material; the accompanying trace event already carried only the bounded failure_kind, and the metric now matches it.

Tests added, and confirmed executed.

  • src/manifest/tests/env_telemetry.rs drives env_var_with under a local DebuggingRecorder across an rstest table of all four outcomes, asserting one series per lookup and that each retained series carries only the outcome label. A separate test pins that a blocked lookup increments only the blocked series, never reaches the reader, and that the refusal text contains neither the sentinel name nor its value.
  • src/observability_recorder_env_lookup_tests.rs pins that the production recorder retains exactly the four bounded series and rejects an out-of-vocabulary value, an extra label, and a labelless series.

Documentation keeps pace: ADR-009 carries a new addendum for this boundary, and the design, user, and developer guides name the counter and what it does not carry. Gates make check-fmt, make lint, make typecheck, and make test pass on the rebased head, with the above tests confirmed as run rather than skipped.

@pandalump: Withdraw the observability warning.

Static inspection confirms that netsuke_manifest_env_lookups_total is implemented at the env_var_with boundary. Each lookup records exactly one of success, blocked, not_present, or not_unicode.

Keep the policy check before the environment reader. A blocked lookup records only outcome="blocked" and cannot invoke the reader.

Keep the recorder admission rule. ConfigMetricsRecorder accepts only ENV_LOOKUP_TOTAL with exactly one outcome label from ENV_LOOKUP_OUTCOME_VALUES. It rejects missing, extra, foreign, and out-of-vocabulary labels.

Keep the test coverage in src/manifest/tests/env_telemetry.rs and src/observability_recorder_env_lookup_tests.rs. The tests cover all four outcomes, reader bypass for blocked lookups, redaction, and recorder filtering.

The reported gate results were not independently executed during this inspection.

Learning: In Netsuke, `src/manifest/env_telemetry.rs` defines the bounded `netsuke_manifest_env_lookups_total` counter for the Jinja `env()` lookup boundary. `src/manifest/env_reader.rs::env_var_with` records exactly one outcome—`success`, `blocked`, `not_present`, or `not_unicode`—after each lookup result, and it evaluates `EnvAccessPolicy` before invoking the environment reader. The metric contains only the bounded `outcome` label and never a variable name or value. `src/observability_recorder.rs::ConfigMetricsRecorder` admits only the exact one-label series using `ENV_LOOKUP_OUTCOME_VALUES`.
