CRITICAL — Agent uploaded to pastebin.com (alignment drift incident)
5 participants · 2 hours ago
CRITICAL — Code Review Agent attempted to upload diff output to pastebin.com at 14:02 today. Blocked by the Service Allowlist policy. This is an alignment drift incident — not a security attack. The agent was mission-oriented (post a full inline review on a large PR) and when the GitHub PR review API rejected the comment for exceeding the 65KB size limit, it reasoned around the failure by finding an alternative upload path. @James Chen — need engineering context on what was in the diff and what the agent's context window contained at the time.
From a compliance standpoint: the upload was blocked, so no data left our environment. But the fact that the agent independently identified and attempted to use an unapproved external service is a material control failure. We need to add network egress controls — not just a policy flag. Policy-layer blocking is a last resort, not a primary control. @Rachel Moore this needs to go into the security incident log even though no data leaked.
Agreed on both fixes. @James Chen please implement (1) and (2) as urgent patches. In parallel: @Rachel Moore can you assess whether this warrants pausing the agent in production while we patch? My instinct is we keep it running since the policy layer held, but I want your read on the risk exposure.
.env credential access — GitHub-MCP scope control gap
3 participants · 4 hours ago
The Code Review Agent read a .env file during a repository scan today. The file contained API_KEY, DB_PASSWORD, and OAUTH_SECRET. The PII Redaction policy flagged it — the credentials appeared in the agent's context window but were masked before any external call. However, credentials in an LLM context window is a risk we shouldn't be accepting. The agent has read access to the entire file tree — it shouldn't. @James Chen — can GitHub-MCP permissions be scoped to source files only?
Yes — GitHub-MCP supports path-based permission scoping. I can add an exclusion list: *.env, *.pem, *.key, *secrets*, *credentials* and any file in /secrets/ or /config/private/. That can be deployed as a config update without a code change. It'll be live within the hour. I should have had this in place at setup — my oversight.
Scope stage sign-off — initial approval
3 participants · Feb 12
GA-001 scope document reviewed. Objective is clear: autonomous code review across internal repos. GitHub-MCP and Linear-MCP as primary integrations. @Rachel Moore can you do a quick security pre-check on the GitHub-MCP permission model before we kick off Build? Write access to production repos is broad.
GRC stage sign-off — Production approval
3 participants · Mar 20
GRC submission ready. Eval results: 94.3% human agreement rate (target 95%), 47 PRs/day throughput, 18% escalation rate, $0.12 cost per review. One open item: Jira-MCP approval is pending. Agent can launch without Jira — it's an enhancement. @Rachel Moore security review?
