 - Use Mongo2Go/in-memory stores; no network.
 - Cover sealed/unsealed transitions, staleness budgets, trust-root failures, deterministic ordering.
 - API tests via WebApplicationFactory; importer tests use local fixture bundles (no downloads).
+- If Mongo2Go fails to start (OpenSSL 1.1 missing), see `tests/AirGap/README.md` for the shim note.
 
 ## Delivery Discipline
 - Update sprint tracker statuses (`TODO → DOING → DONE/BLOCKED`); log decisions in Execution Log and Decisions & Risks.

+# Determinism Benchmark Harness (BENCH-DETERMINISM-401-057)
+
+Location: `src/Bench/StellaOps.Bench/Determinism`
+
+## What it does
+- Runs a deterministic, offline-friendly benchmark that hashes scanner outputs for paired SBOM/VEX inputs.
+- Produces `results.csv`, `inputs.sha256`, and `summary.json` capturing determinism rate.
+- Ships with a built-in mock scanner so CI/offline runs do not need external tools.
+
+## Quick start
+```sh
+cd src/Bench/StellaOps.Bench/Determinism
+python3 run_bench.py --shuffle --runs 3 --output out
+```
+
+Outputs land in `out/`:
+- `results.csv` – per-run hashes (mode/run/scanner)
+- `inputs.sha256` – deterministic manifest of SBOM/VEX/config inputs
+- `summary.json` – aggregate determinism rate
+
+## Inputs
+- SBOMs: `inputs/sboms/*.json` (sample SPDX provided)
+- VEX: `inputs/vex/*.json` (sample OpenVEX provided)
+- Scanner config: `configs/scanners.json` (defaults to built-in mock scanner)
+
+## Adding real scanners
+1. Add an entry to `configs/scanners.json` with `kind: "command"` and a command array, e.g.:
+```json
+{
+  "name": "scannerX",
+  "kind": "command",
+  "command": ["python", "../../scripts/scannerX_wrapper.py", "{sbom}", "{vex}"]
+}
+```
+2. Commands must write JSON with a top-level `findings` array; each finding should include `purl`, `vulnerability`, `status`, and `base_score`.
+3. Keep commands offline and deterministic; pin any feeds to local bundles before running.
+
+## Determinism expectations
+- Canonical and shuffled runs should yield identical hashes per scanner/SBOM/VEX tuple.
+- CI should treat determinism_rate < 0.95 as a failure once wired into workflows.
+
+## Maintenance
+- Tests live in `tests/` and cover shuffle stability + manifest generation.
+- Update `docs/benchmarks/signals/bench-determinism.md` when inputs/outputs change.
+- Mirror task status in `docs/implplan/SPRINT_0512_0001_0001_bench.md` and `src/Bench/StellaOps.Bench/TASKS.md`.
