The 'Regression guards' loop step in ci.yml runs:
for g in scripts/ci-guards/*.sh; do bash "$g"; done
Per the directory's own contract (scripts/ci-guards/README.md), every
script there MUST be runnable bare with no args / no env. Three files
violated that contract — they're helpers consumed by specific CI job
steps with arguments, not regression guards. They were misplaced.
Moved (git mv):
scripts/ci-guards/vendor-e2e-skip-check.sh → scripts/
scripts/ci-guards/vendor-e2e-skip-allowlist.txt → scripts/
scripts/ci-guards/coverage-pr-comment.sh → scripts/
Updated ci.yml call sites:
- deploy-vendor-e2e job: bash scripts/vendor-e2e-skip-check.sh $LOG
- go-build-and-test job: bash scripts/coverage-pr-comment.sh
Tightened scripts/vendor-e2e-skip-check.sh arg parse from a silent
default ('LOG=${1:-test-output.log}') to a mandatory-arg form
('LOG=${1:?usage: ...}') so misuse fails loud at parse time rather
than at the missing-file check.
Updated scripts/ci-guards/README.md contract to spell out the
guard-vs-helper distinction explicitly; lists current helpers under
scripts/ for future-author guidance.
Verified locally: 'for g in scripts/ci-guards/*.sh; do bash $g; done'
returns clean (22 guards pass) on HEAD post-move.
Closes the regression-guards-loop failure that surfaced in CI run
25192163943 (job 73864471346 'Frontend Build').
Bundle: ci-pipeline-cleanup, Phase 1.
Pure relocation — no behavior change. Each guard's bash logic is
byte-identical to the prior inline version; the only changes are:
(a) the guard becomes a sibling script under scripts/ci-guards/<id>.sh,
(b) ci.yml's per-guard step is replaced by a single loop step that
iterates all scripts.
20 scripts extracted (alphabetized):
B-1-orphan-crud.sh, D-1-D-2-statusbadge-phantom.sh,
G-1-jwt-auth-literal.sh, G-2-api-key-hash-json.sh,
G-3-env-docs-drift.sh, H-001-bare-from.sh, H-009-readme-jwt.sh,
L-001-insecure-skip-verify.sh, L-1-bulk-action-loop.sh,
M-012-no-root-user.sh, P-1-documented-orphan-fns.sh,
S-1-hardcoded-source-counts.sh, S-2-strings-contains-err.sh,
T-1-frontend-page-coverage.sh, U-2-plaintext-healthcheck.sh,
U-3-migration-mount.sh, bundle-8-L-015-target-blank-rel-noopener.sh,
bundle-8-L-019-dangerously-set-inner-html.sh,
bundle-8-M-009-bare-usemutation.sh, test-naming-convention.sh
Plus scripts/ci-guards/README.md documenting the contract:
- Each script must exit 0 on clean repo, non-zero with ::error::
prefix on regression
- Runnable from repo root via 'bash scripts/ci-guards/<id>.sh'
- Adding a new guard: drop a new <id>.sh; CI auto-picks it up
ci.yml dropped 1488 → 557 lines (-931, -63%).
Single CI loop step now collects ALL guard failures before failing
the build instead of fail-fast — UX win for regressions that hit
two guards at once.
Two guards (QA-doc Part-count + seed-count, ci.yml lines 868-917)
deliberately NOT extracted — they move to 'make verify-docs' in
Phase 11 because they protect docs-the-operator-reads, not the
product itself.
Verification (sandbox):
- All 20 scripts pass against HEAD (chmod +x; for g in scripts/ci-guards/*.sh; do bash $g; done)
- New ci.yml YAML-parses cleanly
- Job boundaries preserved: go-build-and-test, frontend-build,
helm-lint, deploy-vendor-e2e, deploy-vendor-e2e-windows
- Loop step appears twice (once at end of go-build-and-test, once
at end of frontend-build) so both jobs continue running their
set of guards
