Note

Medium Risk
Deleting deny.toml may break or weaken cargo-deny CI/license checks unless the reusable workflow supplies replacement config; otherwise changes are mostly documentation and repo metadata.

Overview
This PR standardizes repo hygiene and documents security, alongside a few tooling tweaks.

It adds Phenotype org defaults: .editorconfig, .gitattributes, root MIT LICENSE, GitHub issue contact links, and two security policies — root SECURITY.md (responsible disclosure, version support, response SLAs) and .github/SECURITY.md (issue-based reporting). It also ignores Cargo.lock in .gitignore.

Dependency/license enforcement changes: the entire deny.toml (cargo-deny allowlists and RUSTSEC ignores) is removed, while the cargo-deny workflow still exists and delegates to shared phenotype-tooling — reviewers should confirm CI still has the config it needs.

Node root scripts: package.json build and prepare no longer run pnpm codex-cli build; they are no-op echoes, so installs won’t trigger a CLI build automatically.

Security policy directs vulnerability reports to public issues

High Severity

The new .github/SECURITY.md instructs users to report security vulnerabilities by opening a public GitHub issue. This directly contradicts the existing root-level SECURITY.md, which explicitly states "Do NOT open public GitHub issue security vulnerabilities" and directs reporters to use email or GitHub Security Advisories instead. Public disclosure of vulnerabilities before a fix is available exposes the project and its users to exploitation.

Docs-only PR deletes critical CI and infrastructure files

High Severity

This PR is described as "docs: add SECURITY.md vulnerability reporting policy" but it also deletes dozens of critical files — CI workflows (CodeQL, cargo-audit, cargo-deny, codespell, CLA), code signing actions, build scripts, .bazelrc, .editorconfig, .codespellrc, issue templates, devcontainer configs, pre-commit hooks, dependabot configs, and more. These deletions are far outside the stated scope and appear to be accidentally included. The repository is left without CI, linting, security scanning, or automated dependency management after this change.

Resolved Issues

The previous review flagged two WARNING issues that have been addressed in this PR:

  1. .github/CODEOWNERS - Previously missing ownership rules for /iac/, /SECURITY.md, and /.github/dependabot.yml. Now includes all these paths with proper ownership.

  2. .github/SECURITY.md - Previously directed vulnerability reports to public GitHub issues. This file has been removed; the root SECURITY.md now correctly directs reports to Bugcrowd for responsible disclosure.

Skipping CodeAnt AI review — this PR changes more than 100 files, which usually means a migration, codemod, or vendored drop. Line-level review on diffs this large produces duplicate findings on the same rewrite pattern and drowns out anything that actually matters.

If you still want a review, comment @codeant-ai : review. For better signal, consider splitting the PR into smaller chunks.

Security policy contains placeholder and incomplete sentences

High Severity

The root SECURITY.md contains the unresolved placeholder [maintainer email] and multiple broken sentences — "Email maintainers directly [maintainer email] GitHub Security Advisories feature", "Description issue", "Steps reproduce". No actionable reporting channel is provided, so a reporter who follows these instructions has no way to actually reach maintainers.

Adding Cargo.lock to gitignore breaks reproducible builds

Medium Severity

Cargo.lock is added to .gitignore, but this project is a binary/application workspace (CLI tools), not a library. The Rust convention is to commit Cargo.lock for binary crates to ensure reproducible builds. The existing codex-rs/Cargo.lock is tracked, but this gitignore entry will prevent future changes to it from being committed, silently breaking build reproducibility over time.

Build and prepare scripts silently replaced with no-ops

Medium Severity

The build script (previously pnpm --filter codex-cli build) and prepare script (previously npm run build) are replaced with echo no-ops. Since prepare runs automatically after pnpm install, the codex-cli package is no longer built during local development setup. This change is unrelated to the stated PR purpose of adding a security policy.
