Repository Security & Quality Assurance

This document describes the comprehensive security controls, quality assurance processes, and synchronization strategies protecting the 1-Click GitHub Security repository itself. These controls go beyond what the installer provides to end users, serving as both protection and validation for the installer project.

🎯 Overview

This repository implements a "dogfooding plus philosophy" approach: - Uses everything the installer provides (35+ security controls) - Adds development-specific security controls (5+ additional controls) - Implements 6 specialized CI/CD workflows - Maintains documentation and distribution security - Provides reference implementation for security best practices - Ensures multi-dimensional synchronization across all project components

Total Security Controls in This Repository: 40+ comprehensive security checks

🔧 Multi-Dimensional Synchronization Strategy

🎯 Problem Statement

The 1-Click GitHub Security project requires synchronization across multiple dimensions:

Documentation Synchronization

Repository documentation (README.md, design-principles.md, etc.)
Installer help messages (--help)
Documentation installed by installer (docs/security/)
Web documentation site (MkDocs)

Security Controls Synchronization (Dogfooding Plus)

Repository workflows vs installer templates
Enhanced repository controls vs user-installed controls
Functional equivalence validation

Tool Synchronization

pinactlite updates from upstream
gitleakslite updates from upstream
Version alignment across tools

Challenge: How to ensure consistency across all dimensions without violating our Single-Script Architecture principle?

📋 Current Synchronization Inventory

1. Documentation Synchronization

Repository Documentation (Source of Truth) - README.md - User-facing overview and quick start - CLAUDE.md - Design principles and ADRs (authoritative) - docs/architecture.md - Technical architecture - docs/installation.md - Detailed installation guide - docs/signing-guide.md - Complete signing guide - docs/cryptographic-verification.md - Verification procedures - CHANGELOG.md - Version history and changes - docs/repo-security-and-quality-assurance.md - This repository's security setup

Installer-Generated Documentation - docs/security/README.md - Embedded security overview (static) - docs/security/ARCHITECTURE.md - Minimal architecture reference - docs/security/signing-guide.md - Complete signing guide (embedded)

MkDocs Site (docs/) - docs/index.md - Site landing page - Direct files and cross-references - Generated GitHub Pages site

Installer Help System - install-security-controls.sh --help - Command usage - install-security-controls.sh --version - Version info with update check

2. Security Controls Synchronization (Dogfooding Plus Philosophy)

Repository Controls (Enhanced) - .github/workflows/ - 6 specialized CI workflows - .security-controls/ - Enhanced binary tools and configurations - Pre-push hooks with repository-specific enhancements - Custom security policies and branch protection

Installer Templates (Standard) - CI workflow templates embedded in installer - Standard security tool configurations - Basic pre-push hook implementation - GitHub security feature enablement

Sync Challenge: Repository uses "dogfooding plus" - enhanced security beyond what installer provides to users.

3. Tool Synchronization

pinactlite Sync - Upstream: github.com/h4x0r/pinact-lite - Local: .security-controls/bin/pinactlite - Installer embedding: Embedded as base64 in installer script - Sync frequency: Manual, triggered by upstream releases

gitleakslite Sync - Upstream: github.com/h4x0r/gitleaks-lite - Local: .security-controls/bin/gitleakslite - Installer embedding: Embedded as base64 in installer script - Sync frequency: Manual, triggered by upstream releases

Synchronization Principles

Principle: Single Source of Truth (SSOT)

Repository is authoritative. All documentation and configurations derive from repository sources.

Dogfooding Plus Principle

Repository demonstrates enhanced security. We use advanced controls beyond what we install for users, proving scalability and effectiveness.

Tier 1: Critical Synchronization (Automated)

Version Numbers: VERSION file → README badges → Installer script → CHANGELOG
Security Control Counts: Automated counting from implementation → All documentation
Release Information: CHANGELOG → Installer version check → GitHub releases
Tool Versions: Upstream releases → Local binaries → Installer embedding → Release artifacts

Tier 2: Content Synchronization (Semi-Automated)

Core Features: Repository README → Installer help messages
Installation Instructions: installation.md → Installer embedded docs
Architecture Decisions: CLAUDE.md → All documentation references
Security Controls: Repository workflows → Installer templates (functional equivalence)
Tool Configurations: Repository configs → Installer embedded configs

Tier 3: Reference Synchronization (Manual with Validation)

Design Philosophy: Cross-reference consistency validation
External Links: Broken link checking across all docs
Examples and Code Samples: Consistency verification
Enhanced vs Standard Controls: Document differences between repository and installer
Tool Feature Parity: Validate lite tools maintain core functionality

📏 Synchronization Rules

Version Management

# Single source of truth
VERSION="0.6.5" (in VERSION file)

# Automated propagation to:
- README.md: [![Version](https://img.shields.io/badge/Version-v0.6.5-purple.svg)]
- install-security-controls.sh: readonly SCRIPT_VERSION="0.6.5"
- CHANGELOG.md: ## [0.6.5] - YYYY-MM-DD

Security Control Counts

# Automated counting from implementation
ACTUAL_CONTROLS=$(count_security_checks_in_installer)

# Propagated to:
- README badges
- Installer help messages
- Architecture documentation

Content Consistency

# Repository docs are authoritative
- CLAUDE.md design principles → All references
- README.md feature descriptions → Installer help
- architecture.md technical details → Embedded docs

Controls Synchronization (Dogfooding Plus)

# Functional equivalence validation
REPO_CONTROLS=$(.github/workflows/*.yml | extract_security_controls)
INSTALLER_CONTROLS=$(install-security-controls.sh | extract_template_controls)

# Core controls must match:
- Secret detection capabilities
- Vulnerability scanning coverage
- Code quality standards
- Supply chain security measures

# Enhanced controls (repository only):
- Advanced CI workflows (6 specialized)
- Custom security policies
- Enhanced monitoring and reporting
- Tool synchronization automation

Tool Synchronization

# Tool version alignment
PINACTLITE_VERSION=$(get_latest_release "h4x0r/pinact-lite")
GITLEAKSLITE_VERSION=$(get_latest_release "h4x0r/gitleaks-lite")

# Synchronization targets:
- .security-controls/bin/pinactlite (repository)
- Base64 embedding in installer script
- Release artifact versions
- Documentation version references

# Update process:
1. Download verified binary from upstream
2. Test compatibility with current architecture
3. Update base64 embedding in installer
4. Update version references in docs
5. Test end-to-end functionality

🛡️ Security Layers

Layer 1: Pre-Push Controls (Local)

Enhanced with --github-security: Users can now also get GitHub repository security features automatically configured.

Blocking Controls: - Secret detection (gitleakslite) - Vulnerability scanning (cargo-deny) - Test validation - Format enforcement - Linting (clippy) - Large file prevention

Warning Controls: - GitHub Actions SHA pinning - Commit signatures - License compliance - Dependency pinning - Unsafe code monitoring - Plus 14 additional checks

Layer 2: Pre-Commit Controls (Local)

Additional controls via .pre-commit-config.yaml:

repos:
  - pre-commit-hooks:
    - trailing-whitespace

Security: Validates repository implements ALL security controls from installer templates
Dogfooding Plus: Ensures we use everything we provide to users

2. `security-scan.yml`

Purpose: Unified security scanning and threat detection
Tools: CodeQL, Trivy, gitleaks, cargo-deny
Jobs:
SAST Analysis: CodeQL static code analysis for JavaScript/TypeScript (blocking)
Vulnerability Scanning: Trivy filesystem vulnerability detection (blocking)
Secret Detection: Comprehensive gitleaks scanning with full repository history (blocking)
Dependency Security: cargo-deny security audit with license compliance (blocking)
Supply Chain Security: GitHub Actions pinning analysis and dependency integrity (blocking)
Security: SARIF uploads to GitHub Security tab, comprehensive threat coverage, ALL BLOCKING
Architecture: Parallel execution with zero-compromise security posture

3. `docs.yml`

Purpose: Documentation site generation and deployment

Output: GitHub Pages site deployment
Triggers: Push to main, PR validation
Validation: Cross-reference consistency, link checking

4. `release.yml`

Purpose: Automated release process with security validation
Dependencies: Waits for Quality Assurance + Security Scanning workflows
Checks: Version consistency, changelog updates, artifact generation
Security: Cryptographic signing, checksum generation, supply chain protection
Artifacts: Installer scripts, checksums, release notes with security focus

Layer 4: Repository Configuration

Secret Detection (Two-Layer Defense)

gitleakslite (local): ✅ Pre-push hook blocks secrets before they leave your machine
GitHub Secret Scanning: ✅ Server-side detection and partner notification
GitHub Push Protection: ✅ Additional blocking at GitHub level

GitHub Security Features (Enabled)

Branch protection: ✅ Enabled (PR reviews required, status checks, admin enforcement)
Issues tracking: ✅ Enabled
Dependabot vulnerability alerts: ✅ Enabled via API
Dependabot automated security fixes: ✅ Enabled via API
Dependabot config: ✅ Present (GitHub Actions + Cargo)
Code scanning: ✅ CodeQL workflow added

GitHub Features (Require Manual Web Interface)

Security advisories: ❌ Not enabled (requires manual web setup)
Advanced security: ❌ Not available (public repo)

Dependency Management

.github/dependabot.yml - Config for GitHub Actions + Cargo updates
renovate.json - Additional dependency management
deny.toml - Cargo dependency policies
Cargo.lock - Lock files for reproducible builds
Workflow: Dependabot updates → pinactlite auto-pins → Secure updates

🔧 Quality Assurance & Automation

Documentation Synchronization Automation

The repository includes comprehensive automation to maintain documentation consistency:

Automation Scripts: - scripts/version-sync.sh - Synchronizes version numbers across all files - scripts/count-controls.sh - Audits actual security control counts vs marketing claims - scripts/validate-docs.sh - Cross-reference and consistency validation - scripts/sync-security-controls.sh - NEW: Functional synchronization of security controls

CI Integration: - Documentation validation runs automatically in quality-assurance.yml workflow - Prevents documentation drift through automated checks - Validates version consistency, control counts, cross-references, and embedded documentation

Maintenance Commands:

# Check all documentation consistency
./scripts/validate-docs.sh

# Verify security control counts
./scripts/count-controls.sh

# Sync version across all files
./scripts/version-sync.sh --check

# Check functional synchronization (dogfooding plus validation)
./scripts/sync-security-controls.sh --check

# Apply missing security controls to repository
./scripts/sync-security-controls.sh --sync

Functional Synchronization (Dogfooding Plus Implementation)

Critical Issue Identified: We had Trivy vulnerability scanning in installer templates but missing from our actual repository workflows. This violates our dogfooding plus philosophy.

Functional Sync Tool: scripts/sync-security-controls.sh - Purpose: Ensures our repository implements ALL security controls that the installer provides to users - Philosophy: "If it's not good enough for us, it's not good enough for users" - Process: Extracts security controls from installer templates, compares with repo implementation, identifies gaps

Sync Categories: 1. Installer → Repo: Controls that should exist in both (vulnerability scanning, secret detection, etc.) 2. Repo Only: Development-specific controls (tool sync, docs, releases) 3. Missing: Controls in installer templates but missing from repo workflows

Why This Matters: - Quality Assurance: We become alpha testers of our own security controls - Bug Discovery: Issues surface in our development before user deployment - Trust Building: Users can inspect our repository to see controls in action - Consistency: Prevents functional drift between what we build and what we use

🏗️ Architecture Principles

Single-Script Architecture Preservation

All synchronization must not violate our Single-Script Architecture. Automation tools are optional enhancements that don't break the core 1-click installation process.

Dogfooding Plus Philosophy

Repository demonstrates enhanced security beyond what installer provides. This proves scalability and effectiveness while maintaining functional equivalence for core security controls.

Tool Independence

Embedded tools must remain functional even when upstream changes. Version synchronization improves capability but never breaks core functionality.

Transparency in Enhancement

Clearly document differences between repository and installer implementations. Users understand what they get vs. what's possible with enhanced configuration.

🎯 Why the Difference?

The additional controls in this repository serve specific purposes:

Development Validation: Test the installer itself works correctly
Documentation: Build and deploy comprehensive docs
Quality Assurance: Ensure shell scripts are properly formatted
Tool Synchronization: Keep helper tools in sync
Enhanced CI/CD: Validate everything works end-to-end
Multi-Dimensional Consistency: Maintain synchronization across all project dimensions

Most projects don't need these development-specific controls, which is why the installer focuses on universal security controls that benefit all projects.

NEW: The installer now provides comprehensive GitHub security features with --github-security, bringing user repositories much closer to this repository's security level!
