Release v2.2.0

Community Preview Release — All packages published from this repository are community preview releases for testing and evaluation purposes only. Official Microsoft-signed packages via ESRP Release will be available in a future release.

Summary

This release establishes Microsoft-compliant publishing infrastructure, adds community preview disclaimers, and fixes a security vulnerability in the SQL policy engine.

Security Fix (MSRC Report)

  • SQL policy bypass — Expanded
    o_destructive_sql\ deny-list to block GRANT, REVOKE, CREATE/ALTER/DROP USER/ROLE, UPDATE without WHERE, EXEC xp_cmdshell, MERGE INTO, and LOAD DATA operations in both AST (sqlglot) and fallback (regex) paths
  • 35 tests passing with 21 new test cases covering all reported bypass vectors

ESRP Publishing Infrastructure

  • PyPI: ADO pipeline using EsrpRelease@11 for all 7 Python packages
  • npm: ADO pipeline using EsrpRelease@11 for all 7 npm packages
  • GitHub Actions: publish.yml updated to build-only (no direct publishing)

Package Metadata Compliance

  • Python: Author to Microsoft Corporation, team DL, MIT license fixes
  • npm: All packages renamed to @microsoft scope
  • Community Edition prefix on all package descriptions

Community Preview Disclaimers

  • Prominent banners on root README and all 10 package READMEs
  • Disclaimers on CHANGELOG, PUBLISHING.md, all release notes

Pending (post-approval)

  • Complete ESRP Release onboarding
  • Fill in ADO pipeline placeholder values
  • Transfer PyPI package ownership to microsoft account
  • Activate @microsoft npm scope via ESRP

Imran Siddique and others added 7 commits March 16, 2026 17:01
Replace non-compliant pypa/gh-action-pypi-publish with ESRP Release
pipeline per Microsoft Engineering Hub PyPI publishing guidelines.

Changes:
- Create ADO pipeline (pipelines/pypi-publish.yml) using EsrpRelease@11
  for all 7 Python packages with build/publish/verify stages
- Update .github/workflows/publish.yml to build-only: remove PyPI
  publishing step, add artifact validation and upload, expand matrix
  to include agent-runtime and agent-lightning
- Add docs/internal/pypi-publishing.md with ESRP onboarding checklist,
  configuration guide, policy notes, and troubleshooting

ESRP placeholder values (service connection, Key Vault, client ID)
must be filled in during ESRP onboarding.

All 7 packages now build sdist + wheel successfully.

Co-authored-by: Copilot <[email protected]>
Add compliant npm publishing infrastructure per Microsoft Engineering
Hub guidelines:

Pipeline & CI:
- Create pipelines/npm-publish.yml (ADO pipeline with EsrpRelease@11,
  contenttype: npm) for all 7 publishable npm packages
- Add build-npm job to .github/workflows/publish.yml for building,
  packing .tgz, attesting provenance, and uploading artifacts

Package metadata fixes (all 9 non-private packages):
- Rename scopes to @microsoft (from @agentmesh, @agent-os, unscoped)
- Set author to 'Microsoft Corporation' across all packages
- Fix license to MIT where incorrect (api: Apache-2.0, mcp-proxy: Apache-2.0)
- Add missing license and author to vscode and cursor extensions
- Fix repository URLs to point to microsoft/agent-governance-toolkit

Update PUBLISHING.md with npm packages table and requirements.

Co-authored-by: Copilot <[email protected]>
Add prominent disclaimers making clear that all current releases
(PyPI, npm, NuGet) are community preview releases for testing and
evaluation only — not official Microsoft-signed releases. Official
signed packages via ESRP Release will be available in a future
release.

Disclaimers added to:
- Root README.md (banner after badges)
- All 7 Python package READMEs
- 3 npm package READMEs (sdk, mcp-proxy, mcp-server)
- RELEASE_NOTES_v1.0.0.md, v2.1.0.md
- CHANGELOG.md, PUBLISHING.md
- All pyproject.toml descriptions (Community Edition prefix)
- All package.json descriptions (Community Edition prefix)

Version bumped to 2.2.0 across all 7 Python packages.
New RELEASE_NOTES_v2.2.0.md documenting all compliance changes.

BREAKING CHANGE: TrustBridge and TrustHandshake now require an
IdentityRegistry to verify peers. Without a registry, all peers are
rejected (secure by default).

The previous handshake implementation fabricated synthetic responses
with hardcoded trust_score=750 and capabilities for any DID string,
bypassing all cryptographic identity verification. This allowed
attackers to pass the zero-trust handshake with fabricated DIDs.

Changes:
- _get_peer_response(): replaced simulation with registry-backed
  Ed25519-signed responses; unknown DIDs are rejected
- _verify_response(): replaced SHA-256 hash check with Ed25519
  signature verification using the peer's registered public key
- respond(): now requires AgentIdentity with Ed25519 private key
- TrustBridge/ProtocolBridge: accept identity + registry params
- New test_handshake_security.py: 12 regression tests covering
  fabricated DID rejection, revoked identity rejection, signature
  tampering detection, and no-registry rejection
- Updated all existing tests to use proper identities and registry

* docs: add Entra Agent ID bridge tutorial (Tutorial 31) (#10)

* fix(pipeline): run NuGet ESRP signing on Windows agent (#1022)

The EsrpCodeSigning@5 task constructs internal paths (batchSignPolicyFile,
ciPolicyFile) using Windows-style backslashes. Running on ubuntu-latest
produced garbled mixed paths like '/home/vsts/work/1/s/src\myapp\'.

Changes:
- Add per-job pool override: PublishNuGet runs on windows-latest
- Convert FolderPath and all shell commands to Windows paths
- Replace bash scripts with PowerShell for the Windows agent
- PyPI and npm stages remain on ubuntu-latest (unchanged)
- Add comment to delete orphaned ESRP_DOMAIN_TENANT_ID ADO variable

* docs: reland empty-merge changes from PRs #1017 and #1020 (#1125)

PRs #1017 and #1020 were squash-merged as empty commits (0 file
changes). This commit re-applies the intended documentation updates.

From PR #1017 (critic gaps):
- LIMITATIONS.md: add sections 7 (knowledge governance gap), 8
  (credential persistence gap), 9 (initialization bypass risk)
- LIMITATIONS.md: add knowledge governance and enforcement infra
  rows to 'What AGT Is Not' table
- THREAT_MODEL.md: add knowledge flow and credential persistence
  to residual risks, add configuration bypass vectors table,
  remove stale '10/10' qualifier

From PR #1020 (SOC2 resolved gaps):
- soc2-mapping.md: mark kill switch as resolved (saga handoff
  implemented in kill_switch.py:69-178)
- soc2-mapping.md: mark DeltaEngine verify_chain() as resolved
  (SHA-256 chain verification in delta.py:67-127)
- soc2-mapping.md: add Resolved section to gaps summary, update
  Processing Integrity to 2 of 4 defects (was 3 of 4)

* feat(rust): add execution rings and lifecycle management to Rust SDK

Add two new modules to the agentmesh Rust crate:

- rings.rs: Four-level execution privilege ring model (Admin/Standard/
  Restricted/Sandboxed) with per-agent assignment and per-ring action
  permissions, ported from the Python hypervisor enforcer.

- lifecycle.rs: Eight-state agent lifecycle manager (Provisioning through
  Decommissioned) with validated state transitions and event history,
  matching the lifecycle model used across other SDK languages.

Both modules include comprehensive unit tests and are re-exported from
the crate root. README updated with API tables and usage examples.

* docs: update SDK feature matrix after parity pass (#950)

Reflects new capabilities added in PRs #947 (TS), .NET, Rust, Go:
- TypeScript: MCP security scanner + lifecycle management (was 5/14, now 7/14)
- .NET: Kill switch + lifecycle management (was 8/14, now 10/14)
- Rust: Execution rings + lifecycle management (was 6/14, now 8/14)
- Go: MCP security + rings + lifecycle (was 4/14, now 7/14)

All SDKs now have lifecycle management. Core governance (policy, identity,
trust, audit) + lifecycle = 5 primitives shared across all 5 languages.

* docs: add LIMITATIONS.md - honest design boundaries and layered defense (#953)

Addresses valid external critique of AGT's architectural blind spots:

1. Action vs Intent: AGT governs individual actions, not reasoning or
   action sequences. Documents the compound-action gap explicitly and
   recommends content policies + model safety layers.

2. Audit logs record attempts, not outcomes: Documents that post-action
   state verification is the user's responsibility today, with hooks planned.

3. Performance honesty: README now notes that <0.1ms is policy-eval only;
   distributed mesh adds 5-50ms. Full breakdown in LIMITATIONS.md.

4. Complexity spectrum: Documents the minimal path (just PolicyEvaluator,
   no mesh/crypto) vs full enterprise stack.

5. Vendor independence: Documents zero cloud dependencies in core,
   standard formats for all state, migration path.

6. Recommended layered defense architecture diagram showing AGT as one
   layer alongside model safety, application logic, and infrastructure.

* fix(ci): fix Rust crate packaging - use workspace root with -p agentmesh (#959)

* fix(openclaw): critical honesty pass — document what works vs what's planned

Server (__main__.py):
- Add --host/--port argparse + env var support (was hardcoded 127.0.0.1:8080)

Dockerfile.sidecar:
- Copy modules/ directory (was missing, causing build failure)
- Use 0.0.0.0 for container binding (127.0.0.1 is wrong inside containers)
- Remove phantom port 9091 (no separate metrics listener exists)

openclaw-sidecar.md — full honesty rewrite:
- Add status banner: transparent interception is NOT yet implemented
- Document actual sidecar API endpoints (health, detect/injection, execute, metrics)
- Fix Docker Compose to use Dockerfile.sidecar (was using wrong Dockerfile)
- Remove GOVERNANCE_PROXY claim (OpenClaw doesn't natively read this)
- Replace fictional SLO/Grafana sections with real /api/v1/metrics docs
- Add Roadmap section listing what's planned vs shipped

openshell.md:
- Remove references to non-existent shell scripts
- Fix python -m agentmesh.server to python -m agent_os.server
- Add note that sidecar doesn't transparently intercept (must call API)
- Replace pip install agentmesh-platform with Python skill library usage

* fix(ci): fix Rust crate packaging — use workspace root with -p agentmesh

cargo package in a workspace writes .crate files to the workspace root's
target/package/, not the individual crate's directory. The pipeline was
running from the crate subdirectory and couldn't find the output.

Fix: change workingDirectory from packages/agent-mesh/sdks/rust/agentmesh
to packages/agent-mesh/sdks/rust (workspace root) and add -p agentmesh
to all cargo commands to target the specific crate.

* fix(ci): add missing packages to ESRP pipeline and fix Go version tag

Three gaps found during publish verification:

1. PyPI: add agentmesh-marketplace (8th package, was missing from matrix)
2. Rust: build+publish both workspace crates (agentmesh + agentmesh-mcp)
   - Changed from single-crate to workspace build (--workspace)
   - Package loop builds both .crate files
   - Renamed artifact from 'rust-agentmesh' to 'rust-crates'
3. Go: add 'v' prefix to version in doc.go (3.1.0 → v3.1.0)
   - Go module tags require semver with v prefix
   - Pipeline grep expects '// Version: v...' format

* fix(ci): use EsrpCodeSigning + dotnet push for NuGet (#965)

EsrpRelease@11 does not support NuGet as a contenttype — it's for
PyPI/npm/Maven/crates.io package distribution. NuGet packages must be
signed with EsrpCodeSigning@5 first, then pushed with dotnet nuget push.

New flow:
1. EsrpCodeSigning@5 with NuGetSign + NuGetVerify operations (CP-401405)
2. dotnet nuget push with the signed .nupkg to nuget.org

This matches the standard Microsoft NuGet ESRP signing pattern used by
azure-sdk, dotnet runtime, and other Microsoft OSS projects.

CVE-2025-62718: NO_PROXY Bypass via Hostname Normalization — trailing
dots and IPv6 literals skip NO_PROXY matching, enabling SSRF through
attacker-controlled proxy.

Upgraded in 3 packages:
- extensions/copilot: 1.14.0 → 1.15.0
- extensions/cursor:  1.13.5 → 1.15.0

* fix(ci): resolve ESRP_DOMAIN_TENANT_ID cyclical reference (#967)

The ADO variable ESRP_DOMAIN_TENANT_ID had a cyclical self-reference,
preventing ESRP authentication across ALL publishing stages (PyPI, npm,
NuGet, crates.io).

Fix: Define MICROSOFT_TENANT_ID as a pipeline-level variable with the
well-known Microsoft corporate tenant ID (72f988bf-..., same default
used by ESRP Release action.yml). This is a public value, not a secret.

Also: NuGet publishing requires Microsoft as co-owner of the package
on NuGet.org. See https://aka.ms/Microsoft-NuGet-Compliance

* docs: sync audit redaction status and framing with current code

- Update SOC2 mapping to reflect CredentialRedactor now redacts
  credential-like secrets before audit persistence (API keys, tokens,
  JWTs, connection strings, etc.). Remaining gap: non-credential PII
  (email, phone, addresses) not yet redacted in audit entries.
- Replace 'kernel-level enforcement' with 'policy-layer enforcement'
  in README, OWASP compliance, and architecture overview to match the
  existing 'application-level governance' framing in README Security
  section and LIMITATIONS.md.
- Qualify 10/10 OWASP coverage claim in COMPARISON.md with footnote
  clarifying this means mitigation components exist per risk category,
  not full elimination.
- Update owasp-llm-top10-mapping.md LLM06 row for credential redaction.

Addresses doc/code inconsistencies identified in external review.

* feat: add AGT Lite — zero-config governance in 3 lines, fix broken quickstart (#1044)

Addresses the #1 developer experience criticism: AGT is too complex to start.

New: agent_os.lite — lightweight governance module
- govern() factory: one line to create a governance gate
- check(action): one line to enforce — raises GovernanceViolation or returns True
- check.is_allowed(action): non-raising bool version
- Allow lists, deny lists, regex patterns, content filtering, rate limiting
- Built-in audit trail and stats
- Sub-millisecond evaluation (0.003ms avg, 1000 evals in <100ms)
- Zero dependencies beyond stdlib (re, time, datetime)
- 16 tests passing

Fix: govern_in_60_seconds.py quickstart
- BROKEN: was calling PolicyEvaluator.add_rules() which does not exist
- FIXED: now uses agent_os.lite.govern() which actually works
- Verified end-to-end: script runs and produces correct output

The lite module is for developers who just want basic governance
without learning PolicyEvaluator, YAML, OPA/Rego, trust mesh, etc.
Upgrade to the full stack when you need it.

- Expression injection scan (github.event.* in run: blocks)
- Docker security (root containers, wildcard CORS, hardcoded passwords,
  0.0.0.0 bindings)
- XSS and unsafe DOM (innerHTML, eval, yaml.load, shell=True)
- Action SHA pinning compliance
- Version pinning (pyproject.toml upper bounds, Docker :latest tags,
  license field format)
- Dependency confusion with --strict mode (pyproject.toml + package.json)
- Retention days updated to 180 (EU AI Act Art. 26(6))

   - 4 levels: fully_reversible, partially_reversible, irreversible, unknown
   - CompensatingAction: structured undo plans for each action type
   - Built-in rules for 12 common actions (write, deploy, delete, email, etc.)
   - block_irreversible mode for strict environments

2. Trust score calibration guide (docs/security/trust-score-calibration.md)
   - Score component weights (compliance 35%, task 25%, behavior 25%, identity 15%)
   - Decay functions with tier floors
   - Initial score assignments by agent origin
   - Threshold recommendations (conservative/moderate/permissive)
   - Anti-gaming measures and operational playbook

3. Tests: 19 passing (10 escalation + 9 reversibility)

* fix: align lotl_prevention_policy.yaml with PolicyDocument schema

The policy file used an incompatible schema format (id, parameter,
regex_match, effect) instead of the expected PolicyDocument fields
(name, condition.field, operator, action). This caused the
validate-policies CI check to fail for all PRs.

Changes:
- id → name
- condition.parameter → condition.field
- operator: regex_match → operator: matches
- action at rule level (shell_exec/file_read) → action: deny
- effect: DENY → removed (redundant with action: deny)
- Added version, name, description, disclaimer at top level

* fix: resolve .NET ESRP signing issues blocking NuGet publish

GitHub Actions (publish.yml):
- Fix broken if-guards on signing steps: env.ESRP_AAD_ID was set in
  step-level env (invisible to if-expressions). Replace with job-level
  ESRP_CONFIGURED env derived from secrets.
- Add missing ESRP_CERT_IDENTIFIER to signing step env blocks.
- Gate the publish step on ESRP_CONFIGURED so unsigned packages are
  never pushed to NuGet.org under the Microsoft.* prefix.
- Make stub signing steps fail-fast (exit 1) instead of silently
  succeeding, preventing unsigned packages from reaching NuGet push.

ADO Pipeline (esrp-publish.yml):
- Add UseDotNet@2 task to Publish_NuGet stage so dotnet nuget push
  has a guaranteed SDK version on the Windows agent.

* fix(docs): fix OpenClaw sidecar demo and add limitations callout (#1163)

The docker-compose example in openclaw-sidecar.md was illustrative only

Changes:
- Add working demo at demo/openclaw-governed/ with docker-compose.yaml
  that builds and runs the governance sidecar from source
- Replace the inline docker-compose in the doc with a link to the demo
  plus a clearly-labeled reference template for custom deployments
- Add prominent WARNING callout listing known limitations (no native
  OpenClaw integration, no published images, explicit API required)
- Remove stale orphaned curl snippet after the docker-compose block
- Add healthcheck to docker-compose governance-sidecar service
- Fix OpenClaw image reference from ghcr.io/openclaw/openclaw:latest
  to a placeholder users must replace with their own image

* docs: address external critic gaps in limitations and threat model (#11)

Add three new sections to LIMITATIONS.md addressing gaps identified in
public criticism and external security analysis:

- §10 Physical AI and Embodied Agent Governance: documents that AGT
  governs software agents not physical actuators, with mitigations
- §11 Streaming Data and Real-Time Assurance: documents that AGT
  evaluates per-action not continuously over data streams
- §12 DID Method Inconsistency Across SDKs: documents the did:mesh
  vs did:agentmesh split with migration plan for v4.0

Update THREAT_MODEL.md residual risks to reference all three new
limitation sections.

* fix!: standardize DID method to did:agentmesh across all SDKs (#12)

* fix!: standardize DID method to did:agentmesh across all SDKs

BREAKING CHANGE: All agent DIDs now use the did:agentmesh: prefix.
The legacy did:mesh: prefix used by Python and .NET has been migrated
to match the did:agentmesh: convention already used by TypeScript,
Rust, and Go SDKs.

Changes:
- Python: agent_id.py, delegation.py, entra.py, all integrations
- .NET: AgentIdentity.cs, Jwk.cs, GovernanceKernel.cs, all tests
- Docs: README, tutorials, identity docs, FAQ, compliance docs
- Tests: all test fixtures updated across Python, .NET, TS, VSCode
- Version bump: 3.1.0 → 3.2.0 (.NET, Python agent-mesh, TypeScript)

Migration: replace did:mesh: with did:agentmesh: in your policies,
identity registries, and agent configurations.

- TypeScript: MCP security scanner + lifecycle management (was 5/14, now 7/14)
- .NET: Kill switch + lifecycle management (was 8/14, now 10/14)
- Rust: Execution rings + lifecycle management (was 6/14, now 8/14)
- Go: MCP security + rings + lifecycle (was 4/14, now 7/14)

All SDKs now have lifecycle management. Core governance (policy, identity,
trust, audit) + lifecycle = 5 primitives shared across all 5 languages.

* docs: add LIMITATIONS.md - honest design boundaries and layered defense (microsoft#953)

Addresses valid external critique of AGT's architectural blind spots:

1. Action vs Intent: AGT governs individual actions, not reasoning or
   action sequences. Documents the compound-action gap explicitly and
   recommends content policies + model safety layers.

2. Audit logs record attempts, not outcomes: Documents that post-action
   state verification is the user's responsibility today, with hooks planned.

3. Performance honesty: README now notes that <0.1ms is policy-eval only;
   distributed mesh adds 5-50ms. Full breakdown in LIMITATIONS.md.

4. Complexity spectrum: Documents the minimal path (just PolicyEvaluator,
   no mesh/crypto) vs full enterprise stack.

5. Vendor independence: Documents zero cloud dependencies in core,
   standard formats for all state, migration path.

6. Recommended layered defense architecture diagram showing AGT as one
   layer alongside model safety, application logic, and infrastructure.

Co-authored-by: Copilot <[email protected]>

* fix(ci): fix Rust crate packaging - use workspace root with -p agentmesh (microsoft#959)

* fix(openclaw): critical honesty pass — document what works vs what's planned

Server (__main__.py):
- Add --host/--port argparse + env var support (was hardcoded 127.0.0.1:8080)

Dockerfile.sidecar:
- Copy modules/ directory (was missing, causing build failure)
- Use 0.0.0.0 for container binding (127.0.0.1 is wrong inside containers)
- Remove phantom port 9091 (no separate metrics listener exists)

openclaw-sidecar.md — full honesty rewrite:
- Add status banner: transparent interception is NOT yet implemented
- Document actual sidecar API endpoints (health, detect/injection, execute, metrics)
- Fix Docker Compose to use Dockerfile.sidecar (was using wrong Dockerfile)
- Remove GOVERNANCE_PROXY claim (OpenClaw doesn't natively read this)
- Replace fictional SLO/Grafana sections with real /api/v1/metrics docs
- Add Roadmap section listing what's planned vs shipped

openshell.md:
- Remove references to non-existent shell scripts
- Fix python -m agentmesh.server to python -m agent_os.server
- Add note that sidecar doesn't transparently intercept (must call API)
- Replace pip install agentmesh-platform with Python skill library usage

* fix(ci): fix Rust crate packaging — use workspace root with -p agentmesh

cargo package in a workspace writes .crate files to the workspace root's
target/package/, not the individual crate's directory. The pipeline was
running from the crate subdirectory and couldn't find the output.

Fix: change workingDirectory from packages/agent-mesh/sdks/rust/agentmesh
to packages/agent-mesh/sdks/rust (workspace root) and add -p agentmesh
to all cargo commands to target the specific crate.

Co-authored-by: Copilot <[email protected]>

* fix(ci): correct ESRP NuGet contenttype casing (microsoft#962)

* fix(ci): add missing packages to ESRP pipeline and fix Go version tag

Three gaps found during publish verification:

1. PyPI: add agentmesh-marketplace (8th package, was missing from matrix)
2. Rust: build+publish both workspace crates (agentmesh + agentmesh-mcp)
   - Changed from single-crate to workspace build (--workspace)
   - Package loop builds both .crate files
   - Renamed artifact from 'rust-agentmesh' to 'rust-crates'
3. Go: add 'v' prefix to version in doc.go (3.1.0 → v3.1.0)
   - Go module tags require semver with v prefix
   - Pipeline grep expects '// Version: v...' format

Co-authored-by: Copilot <[email protected]>

* fix(ci): correct ESRP NuGet contenttype casing — 'NuGet' not 'Nuget'

ESRP Release rejected 'Nuget' with: 'The value provided for

* fix(ci): use EsrpCodeSigning + dotnet push for NuGet (microsoft#965)

EsrpRelease@11 does not support NuGet as a contenttype — it's for
PyPI/npm/Maven/crates.io package distribution. NuGet packages must be
signed with EsrpCodeSigning@5 first, then pushed with dotnet nuget push.

New flow:
1. EsrpCodeSigning@5 with NuGetSign + NuGetVerify operations (CP-401405)
2. dotnet nuget push with the signed .nupkg to nuget.org

This matches the standard Microsoft NuGet ESRP signing pattern used by
azure-sdk, dotnet runtime, and other Microsoft OSS projects.

* fix(security): upgrade axios to 1.15.0 - CVE-2026-40175, CVE-2025-62718 (microsoft#966)

Critical S360 action items for SFI-ES5.2 1ES Open Source Vulnerabilities.

CVE-2026-40175 (CVSS 9.9): Unrestricted Cloud Metadata Exfiltration
via Header Injection Chain — prototype pollution gadget enables CRLF
injection in HTTP headers, bypassing AWS IMDSv2 session tokens.

CVE-2025-62718: NO_PROXY Bypass via Hostname Normalization — trailing
dots and IPv6 literals skip NO_PROXY matching, enabling SSRF through
attacker-controlled proxy.

Upgraded in 3 packages:
- extensions/copilot: 1.14.0 → 1.15.0
- extensions/cursor:  1.13.5 → 1.15.0
- agent-os-vscode:    1.13.6 → 1.15.0

* fix(ci): resolve ESRP_DOMAIN_TENANT_ID cyclical reference (microsoft#967)

The ADO variable ESRP_DOMAIN_TENANT_ID had a cyclical self-reference,
preventing ESRP authentication across ALL publishing stages (PyPI, npm,
NuGet, crates.io).

Fix: Define MICROSOFT_TENANT_ID as a pipeline-level variable with the
well-known Microsoft corporate tenant ID (72f988bf-..., same default
used by ESRP Release action.yml). This is a public value, not a secret.

Also: NuGet publishing requires Microsoft as co-owner of the package
on NuGet.org. See https://aka.ms/Microsoft-NuGet-Compliance

* docs: sync audit redaction status and framing with current code

- Update SOC2 mapping to reflect CredentialRedactor now redacts
  credential-like secrets before audit persistence (API keys, tokens,
  JWTs, connection strings, etc.). Remaining gap: non-credential PII
  (email, phone, addresses) not yet redacted in audit entries.
- Replace 'kernel-level enforcement' with 'policy-layer enforcement'
  in README, OWASP compliance, and architecture overview to match the
  existing 'application-level governance' framing in README Security
  section and LIMITATIONS.md.
- Qualify 10/10 OWASP coverage claim in COMPARISON.md with footnote
  clarifying this means mitigation components exist per risk category,
  not full elimination.
- Update owasp-llm-top10-mapping.md LLM06 row for credential redaction.

Addresses doc/code inconsistencies identified in external review.

* feat: add AGT Lite — zero-config governance in 3 lines, fix broken quickstart (microsoft#1044)

Addresses the microsoft#1 developer experience criticism: AGT is too complex to start.

New: agent_os.lite — lightweight governance module
- govern() factory: one line to create a governance gate
- check(action): one line to enforce — raises GovernanceViolation or returns True
- check.is_allowed(action): non-raising bool version
- Allow lists, deny lists, regex patterns, content filtering, rate limiting
- Built-in audit trail and stats
- Sub-millisecond evaluation (0.003ms avg, 1000 evals in <100ms)
- Zero dependencies beyond stdlib (re, time, datetime)
- 16 tests passing

Fix: govern_in_60_seconds.py quickstart
- BROKEN: was calling PolicyEvaluator.add_rules() which does not exist
- FIXED: now uses agent_os.lite.govern() which actually works
- Verified end-to-end: script runs and produces correct output

The lite module is for developers who just want basic governance
without learning PolicyEvaluator, YAML, OPA/Rego, trust mesh, etc.
Upgrade to the full stack when you need it.

- Docker security (root containers, wildcard CORS, hardcoded passwords,
  0.0.0.0 bindings)
- XSS and unsafe DOM (innerHTML, eval, yaml.load, shell=True)
- Action SHA pinning compliance
- Version pinning (pyproject.toml upper bounds, Docker :latest tags,
  license field format)

* feat: add reversibility checker, trust calibration guide, and escalation/reversibility tests (microsoft#1061)

Addresses critical review feedback:

1. Rollback/reversibility (agent_os.reversibility)
   - ReversibilityChecker: pre-execution assessment of action reversibility
   - 4 levels: fully_reversible, partially_reversible, irreversible, unknown
   - CompensatingAction: structured undo plans for each action type
   - Built-in rules for 12 common actions (write, deploy, delete, email, etc.)
   - block_irreversible mode for strict environments

2. Trust score calibration guide (docs/security/trust-score-calibration.md)
   - Score component weights (compliance 35%, task 25%, behavior 25%, identity 15%)
   - Decay functions with tier floors
   - Initial score assignments by agent origin
   - Threshold recommendations (conservative/moderate/permissive)
   - Anti-gaming measures and operational playbook

3. Tests: 19 passing (10 escalation + 9 reversibility)

  permissions, ported from the Python hypervisor enforcer.

- lifecycle.rs: Eight-state agent lifecycle manager (Provisioning through
  Decommissioned) with validated state transitions and event history,
  matching the lifecycle model used across other SDK languages.

Both modules include comprehensive unit tests and are re-exported from
the crate root. README updated with API tables and usage examples.

* fix: align lotl_prevention_policy.yaml with PolicyDocument schema

The policy file used an incompatible schema format (id, parameter,
regex_match, effect) instead of the expected PolicyDocument fields
(name, condition.field, operator, action). This caused the
validate-policies CI check to fail for all PRs.

Changes:
- id → name
- condition.parameter → condition.field
- operator: regex_match → operator: matches
- action at rule level (shell_exec/file_read) → action: deny
- effect: DENY → removed (redundant with action: deny)
- Added version, name, description, disclaimer at top level

* fix: resolve .NET ESRP signing issues blocking NuGet publish

GitHub Actions (publish.yml):
- Fix broken if-guards on signing steps: env.ESRP_AAD_ID was set in
  step-level env (invisible to if-expressions). Replace with job-level
  ESRP_CONFIGURED env derived from secrets.
- Add missing ESRP_CERT_IDENTIFIER to signing step env blocks.
- Gate the publish step on ESRP_CONFIGURED so unsigned packages are
  never pushed to NuGet.org under the Microsoft.* prefix.
- Make stub signing steps fail-fast (exit 1) instead of silently
  succeeding, preventing unsigned packages from reaching NuGet push.

ADO Pipeline (esrp-publish.yml):
- Add UseDotNet@2 task to Publish_NuGet stage so dotnet nuget push
  has a guaranteed SDK version on the Windows agent.

- Add prominent WARNING callout listing known limitations (no native
  OpenClaw integration, no published images, explicit API required)
- Remove stale orphaned curl snippet after the docker-compose block
- Add healthcheck to docker-compose governance-sidecar service
- Fix OpenClaw image reference from ghcr.io/openclaw/openclaw:latest

* docs: address external critic gaps in limitations and threat model (microsoft#11)

Add three new sections to LIMITATIONS.md addressing gaps identified in
public criticism and external security analysis:

- §10 Physical AI and Embodied Agent Governance: documents that AGT
  governs software agents not physical actuators, with mitigations
- §11 Streaming Data and Real-Time Assurance: documents that AGT
  evaluates per-action not continuously over data streams
- §12 DID Method Inconsistency Across SDKs: documents the did:mesh
  vs did:agentmesh split with migration plan for v4.0

Update THREAT_MODEL.md residual risks to reference all three new
limitation sections.

* fix!: standardize DID method to did:agentmesh across all SDKs (microsoft#12)

* fix!: standardize DID method to did:agentmesh across all SDKs

BREAKING CHANGE: All agent DIDs now use the did:agentmesh: prefix.
The legacy did:mesh: prefix used by Python and .NET has been migrated
to match the did:agentmesh: convention already used by TypeScript,
Rust, and Go SDKs.

Changes:
- Python: agent_id.py, delegation.py, entra.py, all integrations
- .NET: AgentIdentity.cs, Jwk.cs, GovernanceKernel.cs, all tests
- Docs: README, tutorials, identity docs, FAQ, compliance docs
- Tests: all test fixtures updated across Python, .NET, TS, VSCode
- Version bump: 3.1.0 → 3.2.0 (.NET, Python agent-mesh, TypeScript)

Migration: replace did:mesh: with did:agentmesh: in your policies,
identity registries, and agent configurations.
