spec:
  type: guided
  intent:
    problem: Development work around secrets exposure audit is often underspecified, inconsistently executed or reported without
      enough evidence.
    outcome: Inspect repository and runtime configuration patterns for committed, logged or exported secrets without echoing
      sensitive values.
    whenToUse:
    - Use this playbook when the repository needs a bounded secrets exposure audit task with explicit evidence and completion
      criteria.
    - Use it when Codex should follow a repeatable workflow rather than improvise from a one-line request.
    whenNotToUse:
    - Do not use it when the desired outcome or authority boundaries are still materially undecided.
    - Do not use it to access unavailable production credentials, bypass safeguards or claim validation that cannot be performed.

      description: Response guidance separates immediate rotation from repository cleanup and prevention.

      description: Run the resolved security-scan command when the repository profile provides it and record the result.
      blocking: false
      evidence: Resolved command, exit status and concise result summary.
  completion:
    criteria:
    - Potential exposures are safely fingerprinted, not reproduced.
    - Rotation and containment actions are prioritized.
    - Validation evidence and unresolved limitations are reported honestly.
  failurePolicy:
    onValidationFailure: Investigate failures caused by the current work, repair them when they remain within scope, rerun
      affected validation and report any genuine blocker without claiming success.
    onAmbiguity: Use repository evidence and existing conventions for minor reversible choices. Preserve current behavior
      and stop before any material irreversible decision that the specification does not resolve.
    onMissingContext: Inspect the repository for missing non-sensitive context. Never invent commands, credentials, production
      behavior or validation results; report what remains unavailable.
    onOutOfScopeCause: Explain the evidenced out-of-scope cause, avoid unrelated changes and provide the smallest safe follow-up
      recommendation.
    onExternalDependencyUnavailable: Use an approved local substitute or fixture only when it preserves the behavior under
      test. Otherwise record the blocked validation and do not claim the external path succeeded.
    onUnableToReproduce: Record attempted reproduction, environment and observed evidence. Do not apply speculative production
      changes; provide the narrowest next diagnostic action.
