Bundle 0.7 (Coverage Audit Closure): cmd/agent key-handling regression coverage — C-008 closed

Phase 0 of the 2026-04-27 coverage-audit closure plan surfaced cmd/agent/keymem.go

with two security-critical functions at 0.0% / 11.1% line coverage:

  - marshalAgentKeyAndZeroize: zeros the DER backing buffer after PEM encode

  - ensureAgentKeyDirSecure: locks the agent key directory to 0o700

Both ship as defense-in-depth for agent private-key memory hygiene per

Bundle 9 / Audit L-002 + L-003 (agent edition), but had ZERO regression tests.

This commit adds cmd/agent/keymem_test.go (~510 LoC, 17 top-level test funcs):

marshalAgentKeyAndZeroize coverage:

  - happy path (DER decodes, callback invoked once)

  - nil key (asserts onDER NEVER invoked)

  - onDER returns error (errors.Is propagation)

  - DER backing buffer zeroized after return INVARIANT (the critical assertion)

  - DER buffer zeroized even on onDER-error path

  - contract-violator defense (caller retains slice -> reads zeros)

ensureAgentKeyDirSecure coverage (13-row table-driven):

  - empty/dot/root refused with documented error wrap

  - creates with 0700 (incl. nested ancestors)

  - existing 0700 noop short-circuit

  - tighten 0750/0755/0777 -> 0700

  - accept existing 0500/0400 (mode&0o077==0 branch, no chmod)

  - filepath.Clean normalization (trailing slash + dot prefix)

  - PathIsAFile (documents current behavior; not a bug per call sites)

  - Idempotent

  - Concurrent (-race clean across 8 goroutines)

  - Stat error propagated (root-skips cleanly on non-root CI)

  - Mkdir error propagated (root-skips cleanly on non-root CI)

  - Chmod error propagated (linux-only via /sys read-only fs)

  - Format-includes-cleaned-path debuggability assertion

Plus end-to-end smoke replaying cmd/agent/main.go's composition flow.

Coverage delta:

  cmd/agent/keymem.go::marshalAgentKeyAndZeroize  0.0%  -> 85.7% (>=85% gate met)

  cmd/agent/keymem.go::ensureAgentKeyDirSecure   11.1% -> 94.4% (>=85% gate met)

  cmd/agent overall                              54.3% -> 57.7% (+3.4pp)

The cmd/agent overall >=75% stretch target is unachievable from a keymem-only

test file because the package's bulk (Run, main, executeCSRJob,

executeDeploymentJob, verifyAndReportDeployment) is unrelated to key-handling

and dominates the denominator. Tracked as a follow-on cmd/agent flow-test bundle.

Verification:

  go test -short ./cmd/agent/...                  PASS

  go test -race -count=3 ./cmd/agent/...          PASS, 0 races

  gofmt -l cmd/agent/keymem_test.go               clean

  go vet ./cmd/agent/...                          clean

  staticcheck ./cmd/agent/...                     clean

Audit deliverables:

  coverage-audit-2026-04-27/findings.yaml: C-008 status open -> closed

  coverage-audit-2026-04-27/gap-backlog.md: closure log entry + H-006 partial

  coverage-audit-2026-04-27/coverage-report.md: Bundle 0.7 closure block appended

  coverage-audit-2026-04-27/coverage-matrix.md: cmd/agent row 'NOT MEASURED' -> 57.7%

  coverage-audit-closure-plan.md: Bundle 0.7 checklist ticked

  CHANGELOG.md: [unreleased] Bundle 0.7 entry

Bundle J (ACME failure-mode coverage) unblocked.

### Bundle 0.7 (Coverage Audit Closure): cmd/agent key-handling regression coverage — C-008 closed
> Phase 0 of the 2026-04-27 coverage audit's closure plan triggered a halt-condition: `cmd/agent/keymem.go`'s two security-critical functions were at 0.0% / 11.1% line coverage despite being defense-in-depth for agent private-key memory hygiene (Bundle 9 / Audit L-002 + L-003 — agent edition). Bundle 0.7 was inserted before Bundle J as mandatory; this entry closes finding **C-008** (`CRTCTL-COVAUDIT-2026-04-27-0034`).
`cmd/agent/keymem_test.go` (~510 LoC, 17 top-level test functions) ships:
- **`marshalAgentKeyAndZeroize` regression coverage** — happy path, nil-key guard (asserts `onDER` is NOT invoked), upstream error propagation via `errors.Is`, and the **DER-buffer-zeroized-after-return invariant** verified observably: capture the slice header inside `onDER` (sharing the backing array, NOT a deep copy), then assert every byte reads `0x00` after the function returns. Pinned for both the happy path AND the `onDER`-error path. A future refactor that drops the `defer clear(der)` line would break the test even if the simpler assertions still pass. Also adds a "contract violator" defense test: a buggy caller that retains the slice past `onDER` reads zeros, not the private scalar.
- **`ensureAgentKeyDirSecure` regression coverage** — 13-row table-driven matrix covering empty/dot/root refuse with documented error wrap, create-with-0700, create-nested-0700, accept-existing-0700 (no-op short-circuit), tighten 0750/0755/0777 to 0700, accept-existing-0500/0400 (owner-only-no-write `mode&0o077 == 0` branch, no chmod), `filepath.Clean` normalization (trailing slash + dot prefix). Plus PathIsAFile (documents current behavior — function chmod's a file path silently, not a correctness bug per current call sites but a hardening candidate filed against any future refactor), Idempotent, Concurrent (`-race` clean across 8 goroutines), Stat/Mkdir/Chmod error-propagation paths (root-required ones `t.Skip` cleanly on non-root CI rather than being absent), and Format-includes-cleaned-path debuggability assertion.
- **End-to-end smoke** (`TestKeymem_AgentMainFlowSmoke`) replaying `cmd/agent/main.go`'s composition: `ensureAgentKeyDirSecure``marshalAgentKeyAndZeroize`.
Coverage delta:
| | Pre-Bundle-0.7 | Post-Bundle-0.7 | Gate | Met? |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| `cmd/agent/keymem.go::marshalAgentKeyAndZeroize` | 0.0% | **85.7%** | ≥85% | ✓ |
| `cmd/agent/keymem.go::ensureAgentKeyDirSecure` | 11.1% | **94.4%** | ≥85% | ✓ |
| `cmd/agent` overall | 54.3% | **57.7%** (+3.4pp) | (≥75% stretch) | △ partial |
Verification: `go test -race -count=3 ./cmd/agent/...` clean (0 races); `gofmt -l` clean; `go vet ./cmd/agent/...` clean; `staticcheck ./cmd/agent/...` clean. The cmd/agent overall ≥75% stretch target is unachievable from a keymem-only test file (the package's bulk — `Run`, `main`, `executeCSRJob`, `executeDeploymentJob`, `verifyAndReportDeployment` — is unrelated to key-handling and dominates the denominator); the remaining lift is tracked as a follow-on cmd/agent flow-test bundle.
Audit deliverable updates: `coverage-audit-2026-04-27/findings.yaml` flips C-008 `open``closed` with closure note + post-Bundle coverage numbers; `gap-backlog.md` adds a closure log entry and partial-closure note on H-006; `coverage-matrix.md` updates the cmd/agent row from "NOT MEASURED" to 57.7%; `coverage-report.md::Phase 0 Results` appends a Bundle 0.7 closure block with the coverage delta table and pinned-invariant list; `coverage-audit-closure-plan.md` checklist ticks Bundle 0.7. **Bundle J (ACME failure-mode coverage) unblocked.**
