Implement ledger metrics for observability and add tests for Ruby packages endpoints
- Added `LedgerMetrics` class to record write latency and total events for ledger operations.
- Created comprehensive tests for Ruby packages endpoints, covering scenarios for missing inventory, successful retrieval, and identifier handling.
- Introduced `TestSurfaceSecretsScope` for managing environment variables during tests.
- Developed `ProvenanceMongoExtensions` for attaching DSSE provenance and trust information to event documents.
- Implemented `EventProvenanceWriter` and `EventWriter` classes for managing event provenance in MongoDB.
- Established MongoDB indexes for efficient querying of events based on provenance and trust.
- Added models and JSON parsing logic for DSSE provenance and trust information.

Sprint 120 - Policy & Reasoning

Last updated: November 8, 2025. Implementation order is DOING → TODO → BLOCKED.

Focus areas below were split out of the previous combined sprint; execute sections in order unless noted.

Findings.I

Dependency: Sprint 110.A - AdvisoryAI (must land before this track). Focus: Policy & Reasoning focus on Findings (phase I).

# Task ID & handle State Key dependency / next step Owners
1 LEDGER-29-007 TODO Instrument metrics (ledger_write_latency, projection_lag_seconds, ledger_events_total), structured logs, and Merkle anchoring alerts; publish dashboards (Deps: LEDGER-29-006) Findings Ledger Guild, Observability Guild / src/Findings/StellaOps.Findings.Ledger
2 LEDGER-29-008 TODO Develop unit/property/integration tests, replay/restore tooling, determinism harness, and load tests at 5M findings/tenant (Deps: LEDGER-29-007) Findings Ledger Guild, QA Guild / src/Findings/StellaOps.Findings.Ledger
3 LEDGER-29-009 TODO Provide deployment manifests (Helm/Compose), backup/restore guidance, Merkle anchor externalization (optional), and offline kit instructions (Deps: LEDGER-29-008) Findings Ledger Guild, DevOps Guild / src/Findings/StellaOps.Findings.Ledger
4 LEDGER-34-101 TODO Link orchestrator run ledger exports into Findings Ledger provenance chain, index by artifact hash, and expose audit queries (Deps: LEDGER-29-009) Findings Ledger Guild / src/Findings/StellaOps.Findings.Ledger
5 LEDGER-AIRGAP-56-001 TODO Record bundle provenance (bundle_id, merkle_root, time_anchor) on ledger events for advisories/VEX/policies imported via Mirror Bundles Findings Ledger Guild / src/Findings/StellaOps.Findings.Ledger
6 LEDGER-AIRGAP-56-002 TODO Surface staleness metrics for findings and block risk-critical exports when stale beyond thresholds; provide remediation messaging (Deps: LEDGER-AIRGAP-56-001) Findings Ledger Guild, AirGap Time Guild / src/Findings/StellaOps.Findings.Ledger
7 LEDGER-AIRGAP-57-001 TODO Link findings evidence snapshots to portable evidence bundles and ensure cross-enclave verification works (Deps: LEDGER-AIRGAP-56-002) Findings Ledger Guild, Evidence Locker Guild / src/Findings/StellaOps.Findings.Ledger
8 LEDGER-AIRGAP-58-001 TODO Emit timeline events for bundle import impacts (new findings, remediation changes) with sealed-mode context (Deps: LEDGER-AIRGAP-57-001) Findings Ledger Guild, AirGap Controller Guild / src/Findings/StellaOps.Findings.Ledger
9 LEDGER-ATTEST-73-001 TODO Persist pointers from findings to verification reports and attestation envelopes for explainability Findings Ledger Guild, Attestor Service Guild / src/Findings/StellaOps.Findings.Ledger

Findings.I scope & goals

  • Deliver ledger observability baselines (LEDGER-29-007/008/009) so Policy teams can trust ingestion, anchoring, and replay at >5M findings/tenant.
  • Extend ledger provenance to cover orchestrator jobs, air-gapped bundle imports, and attestation evidence (LEDGER-34-101, LEDGER-AIRGAP-*, LEDGER-ATTEST-73-001).
  • Ship deployment collateral (Helm/Compose, backup/restore, offline kit) and documentation so downstream guilds can adopt without bespoke guidance.

Entry criteria

  • Sprint 110.A AdvisoryAI deliverables must be complete (raw findings parity, provenance contracts).
  • Observability Guild approves metric names/labels for ledger_* series.
  • Mirror bundle schemas (AirGap kits) published so LEDGER-AIRGAP-* tasks can reference stable fields.

Exit criteria

  • Metrics/logs/dashboards live in ops telemetry packs with alert wiring.
  • Determinism/load harness produces signed report for 5M findings/tenant scenario.
  • Deployment manifests + offline kit instructions reviewed by DevOps/AirGap guilds.
  • Ledger records referential pointers to orchestrator runs, bundle provenance, and attestation envelopes.

Task clusters & owners

Cluster Linked tasks Owners Status snapshot Notes
Observability & diagnostics LEDGER-29-007/008 Findings Ledger Guild · Observability Guild · QA Guild TODO Metric/log spec captured in docs/modules/findings-ledger/observability.md; determinism harness spec added in docs/modules/findings-ledger/replay-harness.md; sequencing captured in docs/modules/findings-ledger/implementation_plan.md; awaiting Observability sign-off + Grafana JSON export (target 2025-11-15).
Deployment & backup LEDGER-29-009 Findings Ledger Guild · DevOps Guild TODO Baseline deployment/backup guide published (docs/modules/findings-ledger/deployment.md); need to align Compose/Helm overlays + automate migrations.
Orchestrator provenance LEDGER-34-101 Findings Ledger Guild TODO Blocked until Orchestrator exports job ledger payload; coordinate with Sprint 150.A.
Air-gap provenance & staleness LEDGER-AIRGAP-56/57/58 series Findings Ledger Guild · AirGap Guilds · Evidence Locker Guild TODO Requirements captured in docs/modules/findings-ledger/airgap-provenance.md; blocked on mirror bundle schema freeze + AirGap controller inputs.
Attestation linkage LEDGER-ATTEST-73-001 Findings Ledger Guild · Attestor Service Guild TODO Waiting on attestation payload pointers from NOTIFY-ATTEST-74-001 work to reuse DSSE IDs.

Milestones & dependencies

Target date Milestone Dependency / owner Notes
2025-11-15 Metrics + dashboard schema sign-off Observability Guild Unblocks LEDGER-29-007 instrumentation PR.
2025-11-18 Determinism + replay harness dry-run at 5M findings QA Guild Required before LEDGER-29-008 can close.
2025-11-20 Helm/Compose manifests + backup doc review DevOps Guild · AirGap Controller Guild Needed for LEDGER-29-009 + LEDGER-AIRGAP-56-001.
2025-11-22 Mirror bundle provenance schema freeze AirGap Time Guild Enables LEDGER-AIRGAP-56/57/58 sequencing.
2025-11-25 Orchestrator ledger export contract signed Orchestrator Guild Prereq for LEDGER-34-101 linkage.

Risks & mitigations

  • Metric churn — Observability schema changes could slip schedule. Mitigation: lock metric names by Nov15 and document in docs/observability/policy.md.
  • Replay workload — 5M findings load tests may exceed lab capacity. Mitigation: leverage existing QA replay rig, capture CPU/memory budgets for runbooks.
  • Air-gap drift — Mirror bundle format still moving. Mitigation: version provenance schema, gate LEDGER-AIRGAP-* merge until doc + manifest updates reviewed.
  • Cross-guild lag — Orchestrator/Attestor dependencies may delay provenance pointers. Mitigation: weekly sync notes in sprint log; add feature flags so ledger work can merge behind toggles.
