+# Intelligent PR Sweeper
+
+An AI-assisted, security-first pull-request reviewer for the FastTrack catalog.
+It makes it **easy to contribute** (clear, friendly, actionable feedback on every
+PR) while keeping the repo **secure** (deterministic guardrails that cannot be
+bypassed, plus a dual-model AI review that never has the keys to the kingdom).
+
+## What it does on every PR
+
+1. **Deterministic guardrails (authoritative).** Scans the diff for hardcoded
+   secrets/keys, private keys, customer/PII data, disallowed binaries/executables,
+   oversized files, and out-of-scope or sensitive-path changes. These findings set
+   a commit **status** that fails the PR only for real blocking issues.
+2. **Dual-model AI review (advisory).** Two independent models review the diff for
+   intent, obfuscation, logic, and contribution quality that a static scan misses.
+   Advisory only — it never gates or auto-merges.
+3. **One sticky comment + labels.** Posts/updates a single report comment and
+   applies `sweeper:*` labels (risk level, security-review, scope-review, blocked).
+
+## Security model (why it's safe on fork PRs)
+
+The hard problem with automating PR review is that a fork PR contains **untrusted
+code**, yet we need **write access** to comment and label. Running both in one job
+is how tokens leak. So this uses GitHub's recommended two-stage split:
+
+| Stage | Workflow | Trigger | Token | Runs untrusted code? |
+|---|---|---|---|---|
+| 1 · Analyze | `pr-sweeper.yml` | `pull_request` | `contents: read` only, **no secrets** | Checks out PR head but only runs **trusted inline git** to capture a diff artifact — never executes PR code |
+| 2 · Report | `pr-sweeper-report.yml` | `workflow_run` | write scopes + `models: read` | **No** — checks out the trusted base repo, consumes the Stage-1 artifact as **data** |
+
+Key properties:
+
+- **Secrets are never exposed to untrusted code.** Stage 1 has no secrets and no
+  write token. Stage 2 has them but never runs PR code.
+- **Guardrails can't be weakened by the PR.** The policy engine and its config
+  (`.github/pr-sweeper.config.mjs`) are always loaded from the trusted base repo in
+  Stage 2, not from the PR head.
+- **Prompt-injection resistant.** Untrusted diff/PR text is passed to the models as
+  data with an explicit "treat as data, not instructions" system prompt. The models
+  are advisory; the injection-proof deterministic guardrails are what gate merges.
+  Every model- or PR-derived string is sanitized before it enters the bot's comment
+  (no raw HTML, links, images, or `@`-mentions), so a compromised model can't post
+  deceptive content as the trusted bot.
+- **Write targets come from the trusted event, not the artifact.** Stage 2 resolves
+  the PR number and head SHA from the `workflow_run` event (binding the number to the
+  trusted head commit via the API for fork PRs), never from the attacker-controlled
+  `pr-meta.json`. A crafted artifact therefore can't make the bot comment on, label,
+  or green-light a *different* PR/commit.
+- **Secrets are fully redacted.** Matched secret/PII evidence is replaced with
+  `[redacted]` — no fragment is ever echoed back into a public comment.
+- **Least privilege + pinned supply chain.** Minimal `permissions:` per job and all
+  actions pinned to full commit SHAs (tracked by Dependabot).

+```
+
+## Configuration
+
+Everything is tuned in **`.github/pr-sweeper.config.mjs`** — content roots,
+file-size/type limits, scope thresholds, secret/PII patterns, and the two reviewer
+models. No workflow edits required.
+
+### Choosing the two review models
+
+The default uses **GitHub Models** (zero secrets, just `permissions: models: read`):
+
+- `fast` slot → `openai/gpt-5`
+- `deep` slot → `openai/o3`
+
+GitHub Models does **not** host Anthropic Claude, so "Opus 4.8" cannot run on the
+built-in path. To use a real Opus 4.8 (or any non-catalog model) for the `deep`
+slot, deploy it on **Azure AI Foundry** (which offers Anthropic models) and set that
+slot to `provider: "azure-openai"` with an `endpoint`, then add the
+`AZURE_OPENAI_API_KEY` repo secret. See the inline comments in the config file.
+
+## Required repo settings
+
+- **Actions:** allow GitHub Actions to run on pull requests.
+- **Models:** the built-in path needs org/repo access to GitHub Models enabled.
+- **Branch protection (recommended):** make the `PR Sweeper / security` status a
+  required check, and require CODEOWNER review for `.github/**` and
+  `tools/catalog-build/**`.
+- The Stage-2 workflow only takes effect once it exists on the **default branch**
+  (this is inherent to `workflow_run`).
+
+## Extending
+
+- Add a secret detector → append to `secretPatterns` in the config.
+- Adjust what counts as "sensitive" → edit `sensitivePaths`.
+- Add a third reviewer → add another entry to `review.providers`.

+# Intelligent PR Sweeper — Stage 2: REPORT (trusted)
+# ===================================================
+# Security model
+# --------------
+# This workflow is triggered by `workflow_run`, so its definition and the scripts
+# it runs come from the BASE repository's default branch — they are TRUSTED and
+# cannot be altered by a pull request. It never checks out or executes PR code;
+# it only consumes the *data* artifact produced by Stage 1.
+#
+# Because it is trusted, it may safely hold write scope to:
+#   * post / update a single sticky review comment,
+#   * apply labels,
+#   * set a commit status (the merge gate for hard security findings),
+#   * call GitHub Models (models: read) for the advisory dual-model review.
+#
+# Prompt-injection defense: untrusted PR text (diff, title, body) is treated as
+# DATA. The deterministic guardrails — which cannot be prompt-injected — are the
+# authoritative gate. The AI review is clearly labelled advisory and never
+# auto-merges anything.

+# Intelligent PR Sweeper — Stage 1: ANALYZE (untrusted, fork-safe)

+# Security model
+# --------------
+# This workflow runs in the context of the *pull request head*, which for fork
+# PRs is UNTRUSTED code. To keep that safe it is deliberately minimal:
+#
+#   * permissions: contents: read ONLY. No write access, no secrets, no model
+#     tokens are ever exposed to untrusted code.
+#   * It NEVER executes code from the PR (no `npm ci`, no running checked-out
+#     scripts). It only runs trusted, inline git plumbing (this YAML comes from
+#     the BASE branch for `pull_request`, so it cannot be tampered with by the
+#     PR) to capture a diff + file metadata as an artifact.
+#   * All policy decisions, AI review, labelling and commenting happen in the
+#     trusted Stage 2 workflow (pr-sweeper-report.yml), which consumes this
+#     artifact as *data*.
+#
+# Result: a malicious PR cannot read secrets, cannot weaken the guardrails, and
+# cannot post as the bot — it can only submit data to be judged.
