- Modified task status update instructions in AGENTS.md files to refer to corresponding sprint files as `/docs/implplan/SPRINT_*.md` instead of `docs/implplan/SPRINTS.md`. - Added a comprehensive document for Secret Leak Detection operations detailing scope, prerequisites, rule bundle lifecycle, enabling the analyzer, policy patterns, observability, troubleshooting, and references.
StellaOps Policy Engine
Policy Engine compiles and evaluates Stella DSL policies deterministically, producing explainable findings with full provenance.
Responsibilities
- Compile
stella-dsl@1packs into executable graphs. - Join advisories, VEX evidence, and SBOM inventories to derive effective findings.
- Expose simulation and diff APIs for UI/CLI workflows.
- Emit change-stream driven events for Notify/Scheduler integrations.
Key components
StellaOps.Policy.Engineservice host.- Shared libraries under
StellaOps.Policy.*for evaluation, storage, DSL tooling.
Integrations & dependencies
- MongoDB findings collections, RustFS explain bundles.
- Scheduler for incremental re-evaluation triggers.
- CLI/UI for policy authoring and runs.
Operational notes
- DSL grammar and lifecycle docs in ../../policy/.
- Observability guidance in ../../observability/policy.md.
- Governance and scope mapping in ../../security/policy-governance.md.
- Readiness briefs: ../policy/secret-leak-detection-readiness.md, ../policy/windows-package-readiness.md.
- Readiness briefs: ../scanner/design/macos-analyzer.md, ../scanner/design/windows-analyzer.md, ../policy/secret-leak-detection-readiness.md, ../policy/windows-package-readiness.md.

Epic alignment
- Epic 2 – Policy Engine & Editor: deliver deterministic evaluation, DSL infrastructure, explain traces, and incremental runs.
- Epic 4 – Policy Studio: integrate registry workflows, simulation at scale, approvals, and promotion semantics.
