OpenCode: expose cross-repository review failure when App status publication is forbidden #691
Description
Activity
Additional live current-head evidence from ContextualWisdomLab/html4tree#171 (
ed928b2fb1bd49c7cdaed766ab53a8eaf669db1d): target scheduler run 30682516364 attempt 2 exchanged the OpenCode App mutation token successfully, observed completed same-head Strix and all green checks, but returned WAIT becauseSCHEDULER_ALLOW_CROSS_REPO_REPOSITORY_DISPATCH=false. The workflow only sets that flag whenPR_REVIEW_MERGE_TOKENorOPENCODE_APPROVE_TOKENexists; the App token is intentionally excluded because its installation has no Actions permission. The existing Required OpenCode Review check is green but no current-head formal approval exists, so the 2-review ruleset remains correctly fail-closed. A personal manual central dispatch was separately rejected by the sender/actor identity guard, as intended. PR #692 can make the failure visible, but the remaining governance action is capability configuration: grant a bounded dispatch-capable App/PAT credential to the scheduler path without weakening the sender identity or current-head review gates.Additional same-repository current-head evidence from
.github#690(01ae5398b64bd91aadcc43d465b09c2d5dc864d5): manual central OpenCode run 30680399774 attempt 2 completed after the model catalog was exhausted. Coverage evidence passed, the publish gate correctly emittedMODEL_OUTPUT_UNAVAILABLE, found zero reusable exact-head real-model approvals, and left formal review state unchanged. The optionalopencode-reviewcommit-status publication then selected the OpenCode App token and failed withResource not accessible by integration (HTTP 403)even though the target is the same.githubrepository. This confirms the capability defect is specifically missing commit-status permission/capability on the App token, not only cross-repositorygithub.tokenisolation. The source PR checks remain green;REVIEW_REQUIREDis the correct fail-closed state. This run should be a contract fixture for preserving the primary model outcome while exposing the secondary status-publication failure through an App-authorized PR surface.Live organization capability audit (2026-08-01): organization Actions secrets contain neither
PR_REVIEW_MERGE_TOKENnorOPENCODE_APPROVE_TOKEN, which explainsSCHEDULER_ALLOW_CROSS_REPO_REPOSITORY_DISPATCH=falsein target scheduler runs. The installedopencode-agentApp currently haspull_requests:write, but its installation permission map has noactions,checks,statuses, orsecurity_events; this directly explains repository-dispatch unavailability, commit-status HTTP 403, and inability to use the App for current-head check/code-scanning evidence. The installedcwl-noema-reviewApp does havepull_requests:writeplusactions/checks/contents/security_events/statuses/vulnerability_alerts:read, and live naruon#1180 logs show it mints successfully but correctly skips until a primary current-head OpenCode approval exists. Thus the 2-reviewer queue is blocked at the primary reviewer capability/dispatch layer, not at Noema credential minting. No secret values were read or exposed. App/IAM permissions were not mutated by this audit.Current-head Strix provider evidence across the central queue (2026-08-01):
.github#668headad8322e96a583c81e11058d98310ce947643fb89, run 30688798919;.github#697head64df78ca2480d8bdd836e086af1d975532e13599, run 30688615882; and.github#696head27226f63a9f8ac35d566047d961e7175ee969562, run 30689131611. All three logs show NVIDIA NIM429 Too Many RequestsorResourceExhausted, followed by GitHub Models410 github_models_retirement_brownout. Each then states that no Strix vulnerability report artifact was produced and that zero vulnerabilities before provider infrastructure failure is not clean scan evidence. The final workflow wrapper nevertheless emits a backend-unavailable warning and neutral-skip behavior, so the green check conclusion must not be interpreted as a completed vulnerability scan. This is provider/capability evidence, not a source vulnerability finding; merge governance should continue to distinguish it from real scan approval.- added

33154039624correctly failed its primary scan in job98792623413(STRIX_PROVIDER_UNAVAILABLE). The follow-up job98794476644then attempted to publish the exact-headstrixfailure status to the same.githubrepository. OIDC/App-token exchange completed and yieldedTARGET_APP_STATUS_TOKEN; the target SHA was the exact PR head above. Status publication nevertheless returnedResource not accessible by integration (HTTP 403). NoPR_REVIEW_MERGE_STATUS_TOKENorOPENCODE_APPROVE_STATUS_TOKENwas available, and becauseSTRIX_RESULT=failurethere was no legitimate pre-existing success status to reuse. The follow-up job therefore failed closed rather than manufacturing evidence.This revalidates the first causal boundary already identified by #691: the exchanged App credential still lacks usable commit-status capability even for a same-repository target. It now affects Strix manual evidence publication in addition to the OpenCode paths captured by the original issue. The provider outage and the status-capability defect are distinct propositions: repairing provider routing can make the scan itself authoritative, but a non-success scan still needs a bounded exact-head failure surface without a secondary 403 obscuring or dropping the target evidence.
Smallest remedies remain central and capability-scoped: (1) grant the App the minimum commit-status permission required by the existing design, or (2) supply an approved bounded status credential through the already-supported path, or (3) where status mutation is intentionally unavailable, use an App-authorized PR comment/check surface that preserves exact target SHA/run/result and cannot be mistaken for formal approval. Do not make failed scans green, do not reuse predecessor status, and do not add a leaf-repository workaround.
RED acceptance fixture: run
33154039624, follow-up job98794476644, exact target headec4e2af7d376e4689ab2a0f3421c2bfe383fa2be, same-repository status POST → HTTP 403. GREEN acceptance: rerun an unchanged/current exact target head, preserve the primary Strix outcome, and successfully expose that same-head outcome on the target through an authorized bounded surface; stale/status-only/model-only evidence remains non-passing.
Problem
Central OpenCode repository_dispatch can fail closed without leaving any exact-head evidence on the target pull request when the exchanged OpenCode App token can write reviews but cannot write commit statuses.
Current-head evidence:
Governance classification
High-sensitivity review-governance observability and token-capability defect. It is not a source vulnerability and must not turn provider unavailability into a false clean review.
