Summary

Spec reconciliation finding from the post-#223 sweep: openspec/changes/classify-atc-as-read-analysis asserted atc_run/run_unit_tests were reclassified as read — but the code deliberately keeps them safe_execute.

Timeline reconstructed from git history:

So the code is intentionally divergent and the spec delta was stale. Code is authoritative here — this PR rewrites the delta to match shipped behavior:

  • atc_run/run_unit_tests (incl. coverage) SHALL be safe_execute
  • Plain server+read credentials cannot see or dispatch them
  • The exact object-bound scoped safe_execute path (which did ship, scope-catalogue.ts:510-515) remains the supported way
  • proposal.md + tasks.md updated with the revert note for future archaeologists

openspec validate classify-atc-as-read-analysis --strict passes.

Test plan

  • openspec validate classify-atc-as-read-analysis --strict — valid
  • Docs-only change; no code touched

Summary by CodeRabbit

  • Security
    • ATC checks, unit tests, and coverage runs require execution authority, even when access is limited to specific objects.
    • Read-only credentials can no longer discover or run these checks. Requests are denied before a Destination is acquired or analysis begins.
    • Repository changes and analysis execution remain outside read-only access; mutation requests are also denied.

CodeAnt-AI Description

Keep SAP analysis checks restricted to execution-authorized credentials

What Changed

  • Documents that ATC, unit test, and coverage checks remain safe_execute operations
  • Read-only credentials no longer advertise or dispatch analysis checks
  • Confirms that exact object-scoped execution grants can still run these checks
  • Updates the specification and task records to reflect the security policy shipped in the product

Impact

✅ Read-only assistants cannot trigger SAP analysis execution
✅ Analysis access requires explicit execution authority
✅ Scoped execution workflows remain supported

…code

The change's spec delta asserted atc_run/run_unit_tests were reclassified
as `read`, but PR abapify#173 review deliberately moved them back to
`safe_execute` after CodeAnt flagged SAP analysis execution under
ordinary read credentials. The stale delta contradicted shipped behavior
and the older add-bounded-analysis-class requirements.

Rewrite the delta to match what actually shipped: analysis checks stay
`safe_execute`, invisible and undispatchable to plain read credentials;
the exact object-bound scoped `safe_execute` path remains supported.

📝 Walkthrough

Walkthrough

The OpenSpec proposal, ADT-MCP specification, and task checklist document atc_run and run_unit_tests, including coverage, as safe_execute operations. They specify that read-only credentials cannot discover or dispatch these operations.

Changes

Execution Authority

Layer / File(s) Summary
Document bounded analysis authority
openspec/changes/classify-atc-as-read-analysis/specs/adt-mcp/spec.md, openspec/changes/classify-atc-as-read-analysis/proposal.md, openspec/changes/classify-atc-as-read-analysis/tasks.md
The specification classifies ATC and unit-test execution as safe_execute and describes denial before a Destination lease or SAP operation for read-only credentials. The proposal and task checklist record the same classification and its impact on delegated read assistants.

Priority: ⬇️ Low

Estimated code review effort: 1 (Trivial) | ~5 minutes

Change: Other

Merge Risk: 🔵 Low · up to f71e3

The runtime still requires safe_execute, but an active design note says otherwise and could mislead future implementation. Align the note before relying on this change as the project’s policy.

Security Architecture Review

Security architecture risk: 🔵 Low · up to f71e3

The revised specification matches the existing execution gate, so no immediate increase in access is evident. An unchanged design decision still says ordinary read credentials may run these checks, leaving contradictory security guidance.

Retained concerns

  • Low · security · observed: The revised authorization specification requires safe_execute, but the unchanged design decision still assigns ATC and unit tests to ordinary read authority and calls scoped safe_execute optional. The conflicting guidance could weaken the gate in a future implementation; it does not demonstrate a current bypass.
Security review details

Security Blast Radius

  • inferred — The immediate changed surface is authorization documentation, not a new production execution path. The conflicting design decision matters because adopting its read-authority rule later would extend SAP analysis execution to delegated read credentials.

Security Findings and Attack Paths

  • observed — The inspected gate does not allow read authority alone to list or dispatch these tools. No current bypass is established by the changed documentation or the inspected regression test.

Trust Boundaries and Controls

  • observed — The existing boundary distinguishes read authority from execution authority. For scoped safe_execute calls, the execution wrapper also requires policy and authorization credentials and consumes authorization before invoking the handler.

Resilience and Maintainability Implications

  • inferred — Keeping an opposing read-authority decision beside the revised contract makes future authorization changes harder to evaluate against a single intended boundary.

Hardening Proposals

  • proposed — Reconcile or explicitly mark the old design decision as superseded so the documented authorization boundary has one unambiguous interpretation.

This PR correctly reconciles the OpenSpec documentation with the actual implementation. The changes consistently document that atc_run and run_unit_tests operations remain classified as safe_execute (not read) following the security revert in PR #173. All three files are updated coherently with appropriate historical context. No blocking issues identified.

1. The proposal now requires safe_execute, but the unchanged design still makes ordinary read the authoritative classification, leaving the specification contradictory.

- Impact claimed only scoped credentials reach atc_run; softened to
  require safe_execute authority — ambient safe_execute classes granted

🟡 Minor · Align design.md with the accepted safe_execute design. · spec.md:5-8

openspec/changes/classify-atc-as-read-analysis/specs/adt-mcp/spec.md:5-8
📐 Maintainability & Code Quality | 🟡 Minor | ⚡ Quick win

Align design.md with the accepted safe_execute design.

design.md has an active Decision section that assigns atc_run and run_unit_tests to ordinary read. The proposal, specification, and tasks state that this classification was reverted and that safe_execute is the intended end state. This contradiction can mislead implementation and review.

Update the Decision section in design.md:

Suggested fix
-# Design: Code Review checks as non-mutating analysis
+# Design: Code Review checks as bounded analysis

-`atc_run` and `run_unit_tests` belong to the ordinary `read` catalogue because
-they inspect or execute existing ABAP code and return findings, test results,
-and coverage without changing repository objects, transport contents,
-configuration, or approval state.
+`atc_run` and `run_unit_tests` belong to the `safe_execute` catalogue because
+they execute ATC or AUnit analysis on the SAP system. Ordinary `read`
+credentials must not invoke these operations.

-The SAP implementation creates ephemeral ATC/AUnit execution state. That
-implementation detail is not a business mutation and does not justify
-interrupting every Code Review with a user approval.
+The SAP implementation creates ephemeral ATC/AUnit execution state. Analysis
+execution therefore requires explicit `safe_execute` authority.
