Adopt HarnessX at the hunter loop and verifier, capability-gated so the default
zero-dependency scan is byte-identical and CI (no extra) exercises the fallback.
- 6.1/6.2 build_sast() (single, lazy HarnessX composition site in harness_ext.py,
mirrors DocuHarnessX make_docgen) + HxScanOrchestrator (hunter_harness.py): a
drop-in for run_hunter_pool that runs one bounded HarnessX agent task per ranked
target (ModelConfig(main=AnthropicProvider).agentic(build_sast()).run(BaseTask)),
parses findings from a JSON structured-output contract, returns the existing
HunterPoolResult, maps scan_id->session_id and emits per-target exit_reason/cost/
steps to the outer trace.
- 6.4 verify_judge.verify_findings_dispatch: a drop-in superset of
verification.verify_findings — structural verifier verbatim by default (rejects
unknown reachability), HarnessX llm-judge (build_judge_prompt/parse_judge_response)
when the extra + a verifier model are present; verdict mapped to VerificationResult
evidence-gated (plausible>=0.6 accepted; unsupported/refused rejected; infra
failure never auto-rejects).
- 6.5 cli capability gate (hx_hunter/hx_verify): selects HxScanOrchestrator /
judge only in standard mode with a configured model AND has_harnessx(); otherwise
falls back and records a {stage,reason:harnessx_extra_unavailable} degradation in
the manifest (new append-only write_manifest degradations kwarg). With no model
configured the manifest stays byte-identical.
- pyproject: mypy override ignore_missing_imports for harnessx.* (absent in the
type-check env).
Verified the HarnessX path constructs against the real extra in a throwaway venv
(build_sast -> HarnessConfig; orchestrator -> Harness; build_judge_prompt/
parse_judge_response/verdict mapping) — only the live agent.run()/provider.complete()
LLM calls are offline-untestable and stay gated. 109 tests pass (2 construction
smokes skip without the extra), ruff + mypy clean, detection gate 93.6%/0% intact.
Tasks 6.1/6.2/6.4/6.5 done; 6.3 (deterministic stages as HarnessX processors) deferred.
