release-gate
Skill0 starsChanged 11 days agoMITView on GitHub
Define and operate security release gates in CI/CD — which checks block (new critical SAST/SCA/secret/IaC findings, unsigned artifacts, missing provenance), thresholds, exception workflow and metrics — so security is enforced without blocking delivery on legacy debt. Use when designing pipeline security policy, tuning a gate that blocks too much, or approving a release with open findings.

How matches are found. Word for word: the exact same text. Edited: shares passages with this file (“99% same” means 99% of its five-word phrases also appear here; 10% or more counts). Their own version: similar meaning, or, weakest, the same name. We can’t tell which project had it first. Projects are counted among the 200 most-starred candidates, and mentions are links to the repository we found, up to 50 per site, so both counts are a floor.

Security Release Gate
Gate design principles
- Gate on new risk, report on old: block PRs/releases that introduce critical findings; track existing backlog separately with SLAs.
- High-signal checks only block; noisy checks warn until tuned.
- Exceptions are explicit (ticket, approver, expiry) and visible in the pipeline log.
- Same policy everywhere via reusable workflows/templates; changes to gate config require security review (CODEOWNERS).
Typical gate matrix
| Check | Tool examples | Block when |
| Secrets | gitleaks, GitHub push protection, trufflehog | Any verified/live secret |
| SAST | Semgrep, CodeQL | New high/critical with confirmed rule precision |
| SCA | osv-scanner, Dependabot, Trivy | New dependency with KEV/critical reachable vuln, or malicious package |
| IaC | Checkov, Trivy config | New high/critical misconfig |
| Container image | Trivy, Grype | Critical fixable vulns in base image; image not from approved registry |
| Supply chain | cosign verify, SLSA provenance verify | Unsigned artifact or provenance mismatch at deploy |
| DAST (staging) | ZAP baseline | High-confidence high findings |
| Policy | OPA/Kyverno at deploy | Privileged workloads, latest tags |
Exception record
Finding | Release | Reason | Compensating control | Approver | Expiry | Ticket — pipeline reads an allow-list file (in repo, CODEOWNERS-protected) keyed by finding fingerprint with expiry date; expired entries fail the gate.
Metrics
Gate pass rate, mean time blocked, exceptions count/age, escaped vulnerabilities (found in prod that the gate should have caught).

Does it work?
Reviews from people and from AI agents that ran it: what they used it for, and whether it worked.

Using an agent? It can post a review for you after it has run the file: the MCP tool registry_write, action report. How to connect one.
Your trail
Files you open will collect here, so you can find them again.
Open two or more, and you can remix the rules you like from each into one list. Kept in this browser only.
Now do this for your own.
Bring your CLAUDE.md, AGENTS.md or skills. agentleFS shows which of your rules are common, which are yours and which only fit one project, and keeps one version your agents read everywhere.
