Round-7 blocker-1 residual: the PyYAML-absent line-parser fallback in
detect-platform.sh (_strip_scalar) returned a stringified scalar for
UNQUOTED YAML values that PyYAML's implicit resolver types as a
non-string (int/null/bool/float/timestamp). That bypassed _accept's
isinstance(str) guard and could surface a garbage credential (e.g.
"12345", "null", "true") where the PyYAML path resolves NO token and
fails closed -- violating the module invariant that the fallback is only
ever MORE conservative than PyYAML, never less.
Root cause fix: mirror PyYAML 6.0.3's SafeLoader implicit resolver. An
unquoted plain scalar matching the null/bool/int/float/timestamp forms
now returns None (fail closed); a quoted scalar is always a string and is
accepted verbatim (quote-stripped) as before. Quoted-string handling,
scope-aware attribution, indentation, and inline-comment stripping are
unchanged. The predicate was fuzzed against real PyYAML over ~800k random
tokens with zero fail-open divergences.
Extends the forced-PyYAML-absence parser-equivalence harness with
token: 12345/null/~/yes/true/3.14 (each fails closed identically to
PyYAML) and token: "12345"/'abc' (quoted literals still accepted).
Blockers 2/3/4 (port-bound host, origin+full-path URL pin, review-body
binding) are untouched.

Round-6 remediation for PR #866 addressing four cross-host exact-diff audit
blockers (REQUEST_CHANGES governs):
Blocker 1 (detect-platform.sh get_gitea_token_for_login line parser): the
PyYAML-absence fallback attributed any `key: value` at any depth to the current
login, so a token from a nested sub-map or a mis-indented line could be selected
where PyYAML fails closed, and inline comments were not stripped. The fallback is
now scope-aware — a field attaches only at the entry's own direct-field
indentation, only list items at the login list's own dash indent open an entry —
and _strip_scalar strips a trailing inline comment like PyYAML. It is therefore
only ever MORE conservative than PyYAML, never less.
Blocker 2 (detect-platform.sh host bind): credential binding compared
parsed.hostname only, dropping the port, so a :9443 login satisfied a portless
host and a matching :8443 login was rejected. Binding now normalizes scheme +
host + effective port (scheme default applied symmetrically) exactly like
gitea_url_matches_host.
Blocker 3 (issue-comment.sh + pr-review.sh read-back URL check): verification
used path.endswith, accepting a look-alike host or a decoy path prefix. It now
pins the returned issue_url/pull_request_url ORIGIN (scheme+host+effective-port)
and FULL path (deployment prefix + exact owner/repo + kind + number). A new
GITEA_WEB_BASE is exported from gitea_resolve_api_for_login for this.
Blocker 4 (pr-review.sh gitea_submit_review_verified): the submitted review body
was not verified, so a finalized/reused pending review id carrying foreign
Content passed. The persisted body is now bound to the exact submitted body.
Tests: added forced-PyYAML-absence parser-equivalence fixtures (nested sub-map,
sibling, mis-indent, inline comment, tab-indent fail-closed, port match/mismatch)
to test-gitea-login-resolution.sh; URL-forgery fail-closed cases
(wrong-host/owner/repo + prefix injection) to both write suites; and a
reused-review-id body-mismatch case to the pr-review suite.

CI-red root cause (classification a: my round-4 change fails in the clean/cold
CI env): get_gitea_token_for_login hard-required PyYAML (`import yaml`), which is
absent on CI's node:24-alpine (python3 without py3-yaml). Round-4's --login
override cases were the first to exercise that path, turning the mosaic package
test (test:framework-shell -> test-pr-review-gitea-comment.sh) RED. Fix: add an
indentation-aware line-parser fallback that resolves the SAME per-name token
PyYAML would from tea's flat `logins:` list; PyYAML stays the fast path. This
also repairs a latent production defect (--login overrides were silently
unusable on any PyYAML-less host).
Auditor blockers folded into the same round-5:
1. issue_url vs pull_request_url shape (correctness): Gitea populates WEB (html)
URLs in issue_url/pull_request_url, not API paths, and a PR-conversation
comment carries pull_request_url (issue_url empty). Verification now accepts
either web shape scoped to the repo slug + number, so a durable write is never
rejected for URL shape. Test stubs now emit the REAL Gitea web shapes.
2. Cross-host credential binding (security): get_gitea_token_for_login now takes
the repo host and requires the matched login's configured URL host to equal
it; an override login configured for a different host FAILS CLOSED instead of
sending a cross-host credential. Regression tests added to both suites.
3. Non-exhaustive enumeration (false-fail): removed the redundant, non-exhaustive
post-verification list enumeration (gitea_fetch_all + confirm_*_enumerable)
from both wrappers; the exact-id GET is authoritative. Pagination cases
dropped; a guard asserts no list enumeration is performed.
4. Trap clobbering / temp-file leak (security/hygiene): removing the nested
enumeration eliminates the RETURN-trap nesting that clobbered caller cleanup;
remaining RETURN traps are single/non-nested and clean up on all exit paths.
Temp-file leak regression tests (success + failure paths) added to both suites.
5. README: corrected the exhaustive-pagination claim and documented host-bound
--login selection.
Preserves every round-2/3/4 fix (explicit --login fail-closed at all write
sites, token->identity attribution seam). Gates: cold `pnpm turbo run test
--filter=@mosaicstack/mosaic` green (14/14); full test-*.sh suite green with AND
without PyYAML; bash -n, shellcheck -x -S warning, prettier --check README clean.

gitea_resolve_api_for_login silently fell back to the host-default identity
whenever the named login could not be resolved for ANY reason -- including when
the name came from an EXPLICIT --login override. A caller passing a dedicated
per-role credential could thus have its write attributed to the shared default
identity while being told it succeeded as requested.
Thread an "override was explicit" signal into gitea_resolve_api_for_login
(second param, "explicit" when LOGIN_OVERRIDE is non-empty). When the override
is explicit and that login's token cannot be resolved, FAIL CLOSED (return 1,
clear error naming the login, no host-default fallback). The best-effort
host-default fallback now applies ONLY on the no-override default path. Applied
symmetrically to issue-comment.sh and all three pr-review.sh dispatch sites
(approve / request-changes / comment).
Tests: both scripts' write flows now assert credential attribution via a
token->identity seam in the curl stub -- (a) resolvable --login override drives
the entire write/read-back chain under THAT login's token, nothing under the
default; (b) unresolvable --login override fails closed (nonzero, no success
line, no write, no default-identity request); (c) no-override default path still
succeeds under the host-default best-effort credential.

Replace the tea-based write + boundary/author read-back with a direct Gitea
REST POST that returns the created record's id, and verify that exact record.
BLOCKER 2 (credential ordering): resolve the acting identity, the write token,
and the read-back token from the SAME effective login. A --login override now
selects the credential used for the POST, GET /user, and the GET-by-id
read-back, so an overridden write is verified against the identity that
performed it -- not the host default. Login-name resolution is best-effort and
non-fatal (the override always wins; otherwise fall back to the host
credential), so exotic/ported hosts still resolve a token.
BLOCKER 1+3 (attribution + tautological tests): the write is now
POST /issues/{n}/comments or POST /pulls/{n}/reviews (event + body + commit_id
== PR head), parsing the provider-returned created id. Verification GETs that
exact id and checks author == acting identity and body (comments) or state +
commit_id (reviews). Keying on the created id closes the concurrency window:
a no-op create yields no id and fails closed with no list-scan fallback, and a
concurrent same-identity record has a different id. The review body travels in
the review submit, removing the separate detached comment.
Tests: the curl stub now models a real server with persistent on-disk
review/comment state -- a POST actually creates+persists a record and returns
its id, and the read-back reads that same state (no fabricated record for the
wrapper to find). Adds same-identity no-op-concurrent and author-mismatch
fail-closed cases for both comments and reviews, and >page-1 pagination
coverage for both. README "Durable review provenance" refreshed for the REST
mechanism.

Round 2 remediation for the read-back verification in issue-comment.sh and
pr-review.sh.
BLOCKER A (invocation attribution): id-above-boundary + content/state match
only proves temporal ordering — a concurrent write from a different identity
could satisfy it while this tea invocation created nothing. Both wrappers now
resolve the acting identity once via curl GET /api/v1/user and additionally
require the accepted record's author login to equal that identity. Residual
same-identity same-body/state concurrency is documented in-code (tea 0.11.1
emits no reliable created-record id to close it further).
BLOCKER B (pagination): the comments and reviews list reads now walk every
page (?limit=&page=1,2,… until a short/empty page) for both the pre-write
boundary and the post-write read-back, so a record beyond page 1 is still
found.
Adds regressions: concurrent different-identity write fails closed (comments
and reviews); a matching review beyond page 1 is still found. README updated.

Review remediation for two correctness holes in the #865 fix:
BLOCKER 1 — issue-comment.sh read-back was body-only across all history:
if `tea comment` silently no-opped (the #865 bug) while an identically
bodied comment already existed from a prior run, the read-back matched the
OLD comment and falsely reported success. Now record the pre-write maximum
comment id as a boundary and require a comment with id > boundary AND exact
body match; monotonic Gitea ids make id > boundary mean "created by this
write". Fails closed otherwise.
BLOCKER 2 — pr-review.sh approve/reject trusted tea's exit code for the
review STATE (same never-trust-exit-zero defect class as #865). Removed the
TODO deferral and added a real bounded read-back: record the max review id
before `tea pr approve`/`reject`, then require a review with id > boundary,
the expected state (APPROVED / REQUEST_CHANGES), and commit_id equal to the
PR's current head. Fails closed if absent.
Tests: extended test-pr-review-gitea-comment.sh to model and assert the new
review-state read-back (guardrails preserved, assertions added). Added
test-issue-comment-readback.sh proving the pre-existing-identical-body
false positive now fails closed and a genuinely new comment verifies.

issue-comment.sh called the non-existent `tea issue comment` subcommand
form; tea 0.11.1 silently no-ops and exits 0 instead of erroring, producing
a false-success write. Switch to the top-level `tea comment <index> <body>`
form and add fail-closed REST read-back verification so the wrapper no
longer trusts tea's exit code alone.
pr-review.sh's comment path was already fixed for this bug by #812/#835
(routes through a read-back-verified REST comment API instead of any
tea comment subcommand); this change formalizes an explicit --login
override flag there too and documents the after-detection last-wins
--login ordering, consistent with issue-comment.sh.
