This repo had no CLI-surface drift gate. This adopts capability-sdk/pkg/clisurface so the documented cobra surface cannot silently drift from the live tree.

Same pattern as brutus#353 (merged), titus#355 (merged), and trajan#145.

The SDK pin

github.com/praetorian-inc/capability-sdk v0.0.0-20260908174325-de5f920e8132

That is the merge commit of capability-sdk#57 (tip of main when this was generated). capability-sdk has no tags yet; re-pinning to a tag later is ordinary maintenance.

The diff

  • The gate walks the live cobra tree, diffs it against committed goldens, and lints README (plus CONTRIBUTING/SECURITY where present) and Go comments.
  • make cli-docs regenerates docs/cli-surface.json, docs/CLI.md, and the generated README regions.
  • .github/workflows/cli-surface.yml runs on every PR (no paths: filter). Uses a sha256 manifest as the did-not-write backstop.
  • Release config ships docs/cli-surface.json as a release asset where goreleaser exists.

Adopts capability-sdk/pkg/clisurface so the documented cobra surface
cannot silently drift from the live tree.

Claude Review

Critical issues

None.

Security

  • New module github.com/praetorian-inc/capability-sdk is pinned to an untagged pseudo-version (v0.0.0-20260908174325-de5f920e8132, the merge commit of capability-sdk#57). It is imported only from pkg/runner/cli_surface_test.go, so it does not enter the shipped binary — the supply-chain exposure is build/test-time only. go.sum records the h1: hash, so re-pinning to a tag later (as the description notes) is safe maintenance. No runtime concern.
  • No new network calls, crypto, auth, or secrets handling. Workflow uses SHA-pinned actions with persist-credentials: false and contents: read.

Test coverage

Tests are present and substantive: TestCLISurface, TestCLISurfaceDocLint, and TestCLISurfaceGateDetectsRename exercise drift detection, doc-lint, and rename detection, and the CI job asserts all three actually ran (guarding against a silently-skipped gate).

No critical issues — LGTM pending human review.

Verification note: reviewed git diff HEAD^1 HEAD; git diff --check passed. I could not run go test because the sandbox is read-only and Go could not create its module cache.

Critical Issues

None.

Security

No security concerns flagged.

Suggestions

  • Normalize Line Endings with .gitattributes: Since the CLI Surface Drift workflow validates the committed documents by computing their SHA-256 hashes (sha256sum docs/...), local developers on Windows might accidentally generate CRLF line endings when running make cli-docs. This would cause false-positive drift failures in CI. Consider adding a .gitattributes file in the repository root to enforce LF line endings on generated json and markdown files:
    *.json text eol=lf
    *.md text eol=lf

Walkthrough

Added a versioned CLI surface manifest and generated CLI reference for the Julius command tree. Added integration tests that compare the manifest and documentation with the live Cobra commands and lint flag references. Added a Makefile target, GitHub Actions workflow, and release configuration for regeneration, drift detection, and packaging. Added the required Go dependencies and documented the --api-key allowlist exception.

Priority: ⬇️ Low

Merge Risk: 🟡 Moderate · up to f76f7

The drift gate may validate unintended SDK behavior and permit invalid --api-key examples to bypass documentation checks. These issues should be resolved or explicitly accepted before merge.

Scope the --api-key exception.

This entry suppresses --api-key in every linted context. The test at pkg/runner/cli_surface_test.go Lines 149-155 confirms that an allowlisted token also suppresses an invalid fenced julius invocation. Scope exceptions to the required file and prose context, or keep command invocations outside the allowlist. Otherwise, future invalid Julius instructions can pass the gate.

Instruction-File Drift Detection

Code changes in this PR have introduced a requirement that is not yet documented in AGENTS.md:

AGENTS.md

Section Issue Evidence
Development requirements (new) When CLI commands are modified, developers must run make cli-docs to regenerate documentation, but this requirement is not documented anywhere in AGENTS.md. PR adds TestCLISurface in pkg/runner/cli_surface_test.go that enforces CLI documentation matches the live cobra tree. It also adds .github/workflows/cli-surface.yml that runs this test on every PR, causing PR checks to fail if CLI docs drift. This parallels the probe fixture requirement documented in the "Probe Fixtures" section, but there's no equivalent section documenting CLI documentation requirements.

Automated drift check — please review and update if needed.

Line 9 uses a revision two commits newer than v0.0.0-20260908174325-de5f920e8132. Those commits change Markdown rendering for CLIs without visible subcommands, which pkg/runner/cli_surface_test.go checks through CheckArtifacts. Use the reviewed pin or document why the newer behavior is required.
