Marius CiepluchandClaude Opus 5	47b00d739b	feat(model): one defect is one finding, however many regions reach it ... contributor-scan 2.9. Task 2.4 let a region's question follow the call graph, and the moment it did, many entry points could reach one shared sink: libpng reported the same site twenty-six times. A contributor shown the same defect twenty-six times learns to scroll past it. Findings are deduplicated on (site, family), keeping the strongest rung and counting the regions that reached it -- "reached from 26 regions" is the useful half of that observation and one row is the readable half. Two families at one site stay two findings, because `echo $_GET[...]` is an injection question and an output-encoding question with different answers. The duplication that motivated this was removed by another route: the 26 rows were all the `fgets`-matched-as-`gets` false positive, and the sink matcher fix took them out. So this changes no current number and is a structural guarantee rather than a measured reduction -- the mechanism that produced them is untouched, and only the finding that made it visible is gone. +25 lines for a guarantee, in a session that has been asked to watch its growth. The audit is unchanged at 97 modules, 90 load-bearing and 7 standalone, with no orphans. Gates byte-identical.

Marius CiepluchandClaude Opus 5	68b4e551f3	feat(model): the envelope checkout, and no to Joern server mode ... contributor-scan 2.2 for libpng and the 2.3 decision it exists to inform. 89,082 lines of C across 93 files, under a 2GB heap cap: CPG build 16.1s (25s cold) Joern queries 250.0s arbitration 122.0s (105 calls, $0.0122) whole scan 446s peak RSS 911MB regions 121, all arbitrated, 32 unasked CVE-2025-66293 out_of_scope, as the recipe declares Memory is not the constraint a fleet runner would hit: 911MB leaves room for the rest of the job on a 2-vCPU/7GB runner. The memory pressure seen while building this was concurrent JVMs on one desktop, not repository size. **Server mode: no.** The query phase splits taint 243.3s / config 10.7s over two invocations, and fixed overhead measured on the same CPG is ~13s per invocation. So ~26s of the 250s is JVM startup and ~224s is CPGQL evaluation: a warm server removes 6% of the scan and none of the part that costs. The driver now records query seconds per kind, because a single total cannot tell startup from evaluation and the two answer this oppositely. The small repository pointed the other way. vampi's 34.3s over three kinds is roughly three startups and almost no evaluation, which made a warm JVM look worth having; the ratio inverts with size. That inversion is why the task was sequenced after a real repository rather than decided on a 520-line file. On whether one whole-repository CPG is the only shape for a horizontal fleet: no, and it is also not where the pressure is. The build parallelises and costs 16s; the query does not shard and costs 250s, so splitting a repository across runners divides the cheap phase -- and after 2.4 a shard boundary hides exactly the cross-module flows that matter. Scoping to a contributor's diff cuts the expensive phase instead. 911MB for 89k lines extrapolates to roughly 5GB at a million lines, which would exceed a standard runner, so the ceiling is real and further out than this checkout can locate. Two defects recorded rather than fixed, both invisible at vampi scale: 2.9, all 26 entailed findings are the same site reported 26 times, because regions that share a sink each emit their own; and 2.10, 22 of the 30 highest-ranked regions are libpng's `contrib/` example programs rather than the library. Also ignores Joern's `workspace/`, which a maintainer querying a CPG by hand from the repository root will create. Gates byte-identical.

Marius CiepluchandClaude Opus 5	ca7b5ba370	feat(model): a region that spans the flow, not just a function ... contributor-scan 2.4, closing the no-go task 2.2 recorded. VAmPI's SQL injection is a request parameter reaching `get_by_username` in api_views/users.py, passed to `User.get_user` in models/user_model.py, interpolated into a query string and executed there. Source and sink are in different functions and different modules. Regions were per-function, so neither region saw both ends and the engine was silent on the most ordinary shape a real injection bug has. `reachableByFlows` was never the limitation -- it follows calls already. The limitation was the QUESTION. Sinks were filtered to the labeled function's own body, so a crossing flow had no sink to end at. Three changes, each with a reason it is sound rather than convenient: **An entry point is the trust boundary.** parameter_sources was off for repository scans because a repository's parameters are not all attacker input. An entry point's are, by definition -- that is what makes it an entry point. The driver turns it on only for regions the mapper found and named, and leaves it off for walker fallbacks and for named functions that are not entry points. **Sinks may sit below the handler.** taint.sc admits sinks in methods reachable from the labeled method through the call graph, bounded at ENTRY_POINT_CALL_DEPTH = 3: handler -> service -> data access, which is where these bugs live. Unbounded would make the question about most of the repository rather than about this entry point, and make it unaffordable. **The finding names the sink, not the asker.** A crossing flow ends in another file and another function, so Verdict carries the evidence's own `path:line:function` and the site uses it. Reporting `models/user_model.py:73:get_by_username` would name a place that does not exist: line 73 is inside get_user. Also: labeled methods are now resolved by name AND file. `get_user` exists in more than one module of a real repository, which a corpus of one-file excerpts could never surface. Measured on the same checkout and budget as 2.2: VAmPI-SQLI missed -> model_entailed at models/user_model.py:73:get_user known found 0 of 2 before 2.2's fixes, 1 of 2 in 2.2, 2 of 2 now entailed 7 -> 8 query time 40.9s -> 37.4s peak RSS 869MB -> 827MB cost $0.0067, unchanged Asking the bigger question cost nothing measurable here: file scoping and call-graph following pull in opposite directions and roughly cancel at this size. That is one 520-line repository, and VAmPI is now the repository this change was developed against -- the exact overfitting shape Req 8 exists to catch. The depth bound and the entry-point rule mean nothing general until a checkout nobody tuned against says so. Gates byte-identical.

Marius CiepluchandClaude Opus 5	177c7f3719	feat(model): first repository measurement, and the four things it found ... contributor-scan 2.2. VAmPI at a pinned commit, scanned whole rather than as excerpts, with benchmarks/repos/measure.py recording build time, query time, arbitration time, peak memory, cost, unjudged regions, and whether each known vulnerability was found and at which rung. The corpus could not have found any of this. Every defect below needs a repository to become visible, and three of them were invisible behind a passing test suite. **The batch path was unreachable.** query_batch was implemented, tested and committed while CpgResult exposed only `run`, so the driver's capability check found nothing and fell back to one JVM per region-family: the first attempt at this measurement ran eighteen minutes on 520 lines, issuing `--param function=` one at a time. Every test called query_batch directly, so none of them noticed. CpgResult now carries run_batch and a test asserts the capability is reachable through the object the driver is handed. The earlier 275s->106s improvement attributed to batching came from region deduplication alone. **The budget stopped free work.** It bounds model calls, but was enforced by breaking the region loop -- spending a paid limit to stop unpaid CPG arbitration. 6 of 22 regions were examined and VAmPI's BOLA, which the graph entails for nothing, was never reached. It now withholds the judge only. 22 of 22 regions arbitrated, 17 counted as regions_unasked (silent because unaffordable is not silent because decided), and the BOLA is entailed by the model layer. **A region with no function asked about the whole repository.** Sending function="" matched every hit in the tree and the driver attributed that answer to whoever asked: one `host='0.0.0.0'` in app.py became eight identical entailed findings in eight files that do not contain it. Queries now carry the region's file. Entailed findings 14 -> 7, query time 70.9s -> 40.9s. The single-request form stays unscoped so the committed pair measurements remain reproducible. **The JVM had no heap bound.** Joern claimed a quarter of physical RAM and runs were killed under memory pressure at different points, so the numbers described the host rather than the engine. -J-Xmx2048m by default, OPENULTRASAST_CPG_HEAP_MB to raise it. Also: arbitrated findings carried `function:line` where the report layer read `path:line`, so every entailed finding reached a contributor with a function name where its file belonged; and the witness line was parsed by splitting on a comma, which produced sites like `config.py:17): permissive literal '0.0.0.0':?`. Reading: GO on one CPG per repository -- 6.2s to build, 177s end to end, 869MB, $0.0067, nothing infeasible. NO-GO on region-scoped taint as the only shape: VAmPI's SQL injection runs from a handler parameter into a function in another module, and a per-function region sees neither end. That is the ordinary shape of a real injection bug, so it is recorded as task 2.4 along with three smaller defects this run exposed. Gates byte-identical.

Marius CiepluchandClaude Opus 5	c35426e186	perf(model): one Joern invocation per query kind, not one per region ... JVM startup dominated a scan: a call per region per family put a ten-line file at 275s over three regions, and would have put a thousand regions at roughly fifty hours. The queries themselves are milliseconds once the CPG is loaded, so the cost was almost entirely process starts. scan_repository() is now collect -> batch -> arbitrate. The three .sc scripts accept a `requests` JSON map and answer all of them in one run, keeping the single-request form so the committed measurements stay reproducible byte-for-byte. Arbiters are untouched: each is handed a CpgResult whose `run` returns its own prefetched rows. The batcher builds parameters by calling request_params() extracted from taint.py, dominance.py and config_value.py rather than reconstructing them. A second copy that drifts from the arbiter's is the exact shape of the five family-assumption bugs the predecessor spec spent a session finding; there is now one definition per family and the batcher borrows it. Regions are also deduplicated by (path, function), collapsing the nameless entry-point rows that were producing `model:injection:?:10`. Measured on the same ten-line file: 275s -> 106s, three duplicate findings -> one `model:injection:ping:10`, rung unchanged at model_entailed. Gates byte-identical. Server mode is recorded as task 2.3, deliberately sequenced after the repository measurement: whether the remaining ~100s floor is worth a process model, a weakened subprocess seam and a Scala-evaluating HTTP endpoint depends on a build-time-to-query-time ratio only 2.2 produces.

Marius CiepluchandClaude Opus 5	8663c1a5b3	feat(contributor-scan): 1.1 regions from entry points, 1.2 the repository driver ... Pair scoring could rely on a labelled function; a contributor cannot supply one -- which code is risky is the question they are asking. Regions now come from entry points, with a file-level fallback that says it is one, and each carries only the families its shape and language admit. Ranking uses what EntryPointRecord already decided (access_level, trust_boundary) rather than a second opinion computed from the same evidence. A family is offered only where its arbiter could answer: access_control needs a handler, so a library file with no entry point is not asked about obligations it has no siblings to be inconsistent with. The driver makes the two costs that were free at pair scale explicit. ONE CPG per repository, reused across regions -- a build is 5-30s on a forty-line excerpt and per-region builds would make this unusable. And a budget that is a TOTAL for the run rather than the enumerator's per-region cap of eight, spent highest-rank-first, with whatever it does not reach counted into regions_unjudged. A tool that silently analyses a tenth of a repository and reports a clean result is worse than one that says what it skipped. Two flaws the tests caught, both mine and both about ownership: the budget counted calls by reading a client's own usage log, so it silently never tripped for a client that keeps none -- the driver now counts its own spend through a wrapper; and the driver trusted its caller to have sorted, when the order the budget is spent in belongs to whoever holds the budget. The third was worse and only surfaced because a test failed for the right reason: the driver passed candidates=() and never enumerated, so a repository scan would have reported only what the arbiters establish unaided and never populated the suspicion band -- which supplied 15 of 26 findings in the pair measurement. It enumerates now. Sibling audit (Req 8.5) done before writing: family routing lives in exactly one production place, pipeline._arbitrate, dispatching on spec type. regions_for returns family names and the driver resolves specs, so that stays true. 750 passing, mypy clean over 96 files, gates byte-identical, zero orphans.
