+# Competitor Ingest Normalization (CM1)
+
+## Purpose
+Define how external SBOM/scan outputs (Syft, Trivy, Clair) are normalized into StellaOps schemas with deterministic ordering, provenance checks, and offline-ready adapters. Covers CM1–CM10 in the 31-Nov-2025 findings advisory.
+
+## Scope
+- Import pipeline for external SBOM + vulnerability scan payloads.
+- Adapter mappings, validation, provenance/signature verification, and fallback rules.
+- Offline ingest kits (adapters + fixtures) and regression tests.
+
+## Deliverables (CM tasks)
+- CM1: Mapping tables per tool → StellaOps SBOM/scan schema; required/optional fields; deterministic sort rules.
+- CM2: Signature/provenance verification policy (acceptable algorithms, trust roots, failure modes).
+- CM3: Snapshot governance: versioning, freshness SLA, rollback plan for imported feeds.
+- CM4: Anomaly regression suite (schema drift, nullables, encoding, ordering). Golden fixtures + hashes.
+- CM5: Offline ingest kit: DSSE-signed adapters/mappings/fixtures with tool versions and hashes.
+- CM6: Fallback hierarchy when data incomplete (signed SBOM → unsigned SBOM → scan → defaults) with explicit decision trace.
+- CM7: Source transparency fields (tool name/version/hash, build metadata) persisted and surfaced.
+- CM8: Benchmark parity plan with upstream tools (pinned versions, hash-logged runs).
+- CM9: Coverage matrix by ecosystem; gap tracker.
+- CM10: Retry/backoff/error taxonomy and deterministic diagnostics.
+
+## Determinism & Validation
+- Adapters must sort components and vulnerabilities deterministically (locale-invariant, stable keys).
+- All mapping rules and fixtures carry BLAKE3/SHA256 hashes; adapters are pure functions (no network).
+- Signature verification rejects unverifiable payloads; logs reason codes; can run offline using bundled trust roots.
+
+## Adapter mapping skeleton (CM1)
+- Tool coverage v0.1: Syft 1.0.x, Trivy 0.50.x, Clair 6.x (pin exact versions in fixtures).
+- Mapping tables (CSV, checked in under `docs/modules/scanner/fixtures/competitor-adapters/`):
+  - component: external fields → `name`, `version`, `purl`, `type`, `hashes`, `licenses`, `evidenceRef`.
+  - vulnerability: `id`, `source`, `severity` (normalised), `cvss` (score/vector), `fixVersions`, `evidenceRef`.
+  - metadata: tool name/version/hash, scan timestamp (UTC), data source.
+- Sorting: components by `purl` → `name` → `version`; vulns by `id` → `source` → `severityScore` desc → `cvss.vector`.
+
+## Verification policy (CM2)
+- Acceptable signatures: DSSE/COSE/JWS with SHA256/Ed25519/ECDSA; trust roots bundled in offline kit.
+- Provenance check: require signer identity + hash match; if missing, mark provenance = `unknown` and apply fallback (CM6).
+
+## Snapshot governance (CM3)
+- Freshness budget: max age 7 days from `scanTimestamp`; reject older unless override flag set (logged).
+- Versioning: stored as `snapshot_version` (semver) and `source_tool_hash`; rollback plan requires prior snapshot hash.
+
+## Regression + fixtures (CM4/CM5)
+- Fixtures under `docs/modules/scanner/fixtures/competitor-adapters/fixtures/` with golden hashes (BLAKE3/SHA256) and expected normalized output.
+- CI step runs adapter → normalized → hash compare; offline, no network.
+
+## Fallback hierarchy (CM6)
+1) Signed SBOM w/ valid provenance → accepted.
+2) Unsigned SBOM → accepted with `provenance=unknown`, warnings emitted.
+3) Scan-only results → accepted with degraded confidence; policy lattice may penalize.
+4) If all absent: reject with reason code `no_evidence`.
+
+## Transparency & coverage (CM7–CM9)
+- Persist: `source.tool`, `source.version`, `source.hash`, `adapter.version`, `normalized_hash`.
+- Coverage matrix maintained in `docs/modules/scanner/fixtures/competitor-adapters/coverage.csv` (ecosystem yes/no, notes).
+- Bench parity (CM8): pin upstream versions; store run hashes/logs in fixtures folder.
+
+## Error taxonomy (CM10)
+- Retryable: network/unavailable (should not occur in offline mode), rate-limit, transient IO.
+- Non-retryable: signature_invalid, schema_invalid, unsupported_version, no_evidence.
+- All errors must carry deterministic reason codes and be logged in normalized output metadata.
+
+## Open Items
+- Decide minimal evidence set for accepting unsigned SBOMs (intermediate level before scan-only fallback).
+- Confirm which hash (BLAKE3/SHA256) is canonical for adapter outputs.

+## Links
+- Sprint: `docs/implplan/SPRINT_0186_0001_0001_record_deterministic_execution.md` (CM1–CM10)

+# Scanner Standards Convergence Roadmap (SC1)
+
+## Purpose
+Define the concrete steps for adopting CVSS v4.0, CycloneDX 1.7 (incl. CBOM), and SLSA 1.2 across Scanner surfaces while keeping outputs deterministic and downgrade-friendly.
+
+## Scope
+- Scanner WebService + Worker + Replay bundles.
+- Surface contracts, CLI outputs, and CAS artifacts.
+- Downgrade adapters to CVSS v3.1, CDX 1.6, SLSA 1.0 (see SC4).
+
+## Deliverables (tie to SC tasks)
+- SC1: Roadmap with milestones, owners, and schema bump governance.
+- SC2: Deterministic CDX 1.7 + CBOM contract (fields, ordering, evidence citations).
+- SC3: SLSA Source Track capture fields for replay bundles (build-id, repo refs, provenance hooks).
+- SC4: Mapping tables for downgrade adapters; deterministic mapping rules and hashes.
+- SC5/SC8: Fixture set + determinism CI (stable ordering, seeded RNG, golden hashes).
+- SC6: Binary ↔ source evidence alignment requirements (build-id, symbols, patch oracle) feeding policy/VEX.
+- SC7: API/UI surfacing contract (filters, columns, pagination defaults) with deterministic ordering.
+- SC9: Governance/RACI for schema bumps and adapter tables.
+- SC10: Offline-kit parity: DSSE-signed schemas/mappings/fixtures, frozen bundle.
+
+## Contracts & owners (v0.1)
+- Schema leads: Scanner Guild (CDX 1.7/CBOM), Sbomer Guild (mapping), Policy Guild (severity/vectors), Ops Guild (offline kit).
+- Canonical CDX 1.7/CBOM fields (min set):
+  - `metadata/component` (purl, hashes, evidence refs),
+  - `services` with CBOM channels (ingress/egress),
+  - `vulnerabilities[*].ratings[]` must carry CVSS v4 and v3.1 side-by-side; deterministic order: v4 first, then v3.1.
+  - Evidence citations: `properties["evidence:source"]`, `properties["evidence:proof-id"]`, `properties["evidence:hash"]`.
+- SLSA Source Track (SC3):
+  - replay bundle fields: `source.repo`, `source.ref`, `build.id`, `build.invocation.hash`, `provenance.dsse` (hash), all required.
+- Deterministic ordering rules (apply across SC2/SC5/SC8):
+  - sort components by `purl`, ties by `name`, then `version` (ordinal, case-insensitive);
+  - vulnerabilities sorted by `id`, then `source`, then severity score desc;
+  - timestamps UTC ISO-8601 without sub-ms; decimal rounding 4dp for ratios, 2dp for scores.
+- Adapter tables (SC4): mapping CSVs checked in under `docs/modules/scanner/fixtures/adapters/` with BLAKE3 + SHA256 hashes; adapters are pure, no net.
+
+## Fixtures (SC5/SC8)
+- Add to `docs/modules/scanner/fixtures/cdx17-cbom/`:
+  - `sample-cdx17-cbom.json` (golden), `sample-cdx16-downgraded.json`, `hashes.txt` (BLAKE3, SHA256).
+  - Include CBOM ingress/egress example, CVSS v4 vector, SLSA Source Track fields, evidence properties.
+- CI step: `dotnet test` hook runs deterministic serializer + hash assertion; env `DOTNET_DISABLE_BUILTIN_GRAPH=1`, fixed `TZ=UTC`, `LC_ALL=C`.
+
+## Governance (SC1/SC9)
+- Propose RACI: Product (A), Scanner TL (R), Sbomer TL (C), Policy TL (C), Ops (I).
+- Schema bump flow: draft → review → freeze → DSSE-sign schemas + fixtures → publish hash list → lock downgrade adapters.
+- Downgrade adapters cannot ship without approved mapping CSV + updated hashes.
+
+## Offline (SC10)
+- Offline kit must include: schemas, adapter CSVs, fixtures, hash list, DSSE envelope, tool versions (Syft/Trivy pinned) and their hashes.
+- Bundle path: `out/offline/scanner-standards-kit-v1/`. DSSE envelope references manifest with all hashes.
+
+## Milestones (proposed)
+1) Schema draft freeze (CDX 1.7/CBOM + CVSS v4 fields) — owners: Scanner Guild, due T+5d.
+2) Replay bundle field list for Source Track — owners: Scanner + Sbomer, due T+7d.
+3) Determinism harness upgrade (CI + fixtures) — owners: QA + Scanner, due T+10d.
+4) Downgrade adapter tables + hash tests — owners: Scanner, due T+12d.
+5) Offline-kit bundle update & DSSE signing — owners: Ops, due T+14d.
+
+## Determinism & Offline requirements
+- Stable field ordering, culture-invariant formatting, UTC ISO-8601 timestamps.
+- No network calls during conversion/adapters; fixed seeds for any RNG.
+- All schemas/adapters/fixtures shipped in offline kit with DSSE envelope and recorded hashes.
+
+## Open Items
+- Confirm CBOM section subset required for policy engine (ingredients vs evidence-only).
+- Decide default CVSS v4 vector precision and rounding rules.
