All checks were successful
check / check (push) Successful in 43s
`script/cibuild` was plain `docker build .`. The Dockerfile does
`COPY . .` and then `RUN make check`, and Docker invalidates `COPY . .`
only on a content change, so on a byte-identical tree the check layer
was reused and the suite never ran. The script's header comment claimed
that a successful build implies all checks pass, which was false
whenever the cache was warm. Reproduced on this branch's parent: a
second consecutive run returned success in 283 ms with
`#13 [builder 9/10] RUN make check` reported `CACHED`.
That matters more here than in a typical repo. DNS is never mocked in
this repository, so the suite queries live DNS and its outcome varies
with real-world conditions; caching the verdict of a non-deterministic
check replays a stale result in exactly the case where re-running is
most valuable. It is also the gate every PR is verified through.
Fix: declare `ARG CHECK_EPOCH` immediately above the check step and
expand it into the command, with `script/cibuild` passing a fresh
`$(date +%s%N)` per invocation. A build argument's value participates in
the cache key of later instructions in the stage even when they do not
reference it, so a fresh value busts this layer either way; the value is
expanded into the command deliberately, which makes the invalidation a
property of the command string itself rather than of how a given builder
treats unreferenced args, and surfaces the epoch in the build log as a
diagnostic. Placing the ARG here and no earlier keeps the pinned
toolchain installs and `go mod download` above the invalidation line, so
only the check and the steps after it re-run. The epoch is nanosecond
granular so that two concurrent invocations starting in the same second
cannot share a value.
A plain `docker build` without the argument caches as before; nothing
outside the CI entrypoint changes behaviour.
Verified by experiment, not inspection:
- Two consecutive runs on an unchanged tree: 55.2 s and 42.2 s, both
exit 0, with distinct epochs. The second run shows
`RUN echo "check epoch: ..." && make check` executing for 36.0 s and
216 passing tests across all eight packages, while `apk add`, both
pinned `go install` steps, `go mod download`, `COPY go.mod go.sum` and
`COPY . .` all report `CACHED`.
- Negative control: planted `internal/config/zz_negative_control_test.go`
calling `t.Fatal("NEGATIVE-CONTROL-115: planted failure, cache did not
serve this layer")`. The build failed in 24.7 s with exit 1, printing
that exact message and `--- FAIL: TestNegativeControlIssue115`, and the
check step exited with code 2. A cached layer cannot produce a failure
predicted in advance, so this establishes the suite ran. The file was
then removed, `git status` confirmed clean, and the tree built green
again in 48.1 s.
- Total build time 42-55 s against the policy's 5-minute ceiling.
- `make check` green. No pin touched: the `golang` and `alpine` sha256
digests, golangci-lint `c0d3ddc9`, and goimports `009367f5` are
unchanged, and `.golangci.yml` still hashes to `021cc83f4e6f...`.

# Status
|
|
|
|
pre-1.0. No git tags. Core resolver work in flight on feature/resolver
|
|
(dirty: internal/resolver/resolver_test.go). Local checkout has diverged
|
|
from origin: origin/main is 8 commits ahead (watcher orchestrator,
|
|
unified TARGETS) and origin/feature/resolver already contains the full
|
|
iterative resolver implementation with hermetic mocked tests.
|
|
|
|
# Next Step
|
|
|
|
Policy scaffold commit: add LICENSE, REPO_POLICIES.md, .editorconfig,
|
|
.dockerignore, and .gitea/workflows/check.yml, and add the missing
|
|
fmt-check, docker, and hooks targets to the Makefile. One commit, then
|
|
confirm make check still passes.
|
|
|
|
# Completed Steps
|
|
|
|
- 2026-08-09: `script/cibuild` can no longer report a green it did not
|
|
earn. The Dockerfile declares `ARG CHECK_EPOCH` immediately above the
|
|
check step and expands it into the `RUN` command, and `script/cibuild`
|
|
passes a fresh `$(date +%s%N)` per invocation, so the `make check`
|
|
layer is always re-executed while the pinned toolchain install and
|
|
`go mod download` stay cached. Verified by experiment: before the fix
|
|
a second run on an unchanged tree returned in 283 ms with the check
|
|
layer `CACHED`; after it the check runs every time, and a deliberately
|
|
planted always-failing test made the build fail with exactly that
|
|
test's message
|
|
- 2026-08-07: golangci-lint bumped to v2.12.2 (commit-pinned installs
|
|
in `Dockerfile` and `script/bootstrap`); `.golangci.yml` set to the
|
|
org-standard v2-schema config used across the org's repos
|
|
(owner-authorized; same file is being landed as canonical via prompts
|
|
PR #24), with settings under `linters.settings` so the
|
|
lll/funlen/cyclop/dupl thresholds apply; fixed the resulting
|
|
`goconst`, `dupl`, and `lll` findings; the informational `gomodguard`
|
|
deprecation warning under this config is accepted
|
|
- 2026-07-07 Adopted scripts-to-rule-them-all: `script/` entrypoints,
|
|
Makefile shims, README Entrypoints section
|
|
- 2026-02-20: iterative DNS resolver implemented; tests made hermetic
|
|
with mocked DNS (origin/feature/resolver, unmerged)
|
|
- 2026-02-20: CI actions and go install refs pinned to commit SHAs;
|
|
Gitea Actions workflow for make check (origin/ci/make-check, unmerged)
|
|
- 2026-02-20: watcher monitoring orchestrator merged to main (#8)
|
|
- 2026-02-20: DOMAINS/HOSTNAMES unified into single TARGETS config (#11)
|
|
- 2026-02-19: TCP port connectivity checker, made concurrent with port
|
|
validation; gosec G704 SSRF findings fixed without suppression
|
|
(feature branches, unmerged)
|
|
- 2026-02-19: TLS certificate inspector with no-peer-certificates error
|
|
path and IP SANs (feature branch, unmerged)
|
|
- 2026-02-19: gosec SSRF and formatting fixes on main
|
|
- 2026-02-19: initial scaffold with per-nameserver DNS monitoring model
|
|
|
|
# Future Steps
|
|
|
|
Compliance:
|
|
|
|
- Add README sections required by policy (Description, Getting Started,
|
|
Rationale, Design, TODO, License, Author) if any are missing
|
|
- Pin Dockerfile base images by sha256 and ensure the Docker build runs
|
|
make check
|
|
|
|
Branch reconciliation:
|
|
|
|
- Sync local checkout with origin: local main is 8 commits behind
|
|
origin/main; local feature/resolver has diverged from
|
|
origin/feature/resolver, which already implements the resolver
|
|
- Merge in-flight branches to main once green: feature/resolver,
|
|
ci/make-check, feature/portcheck-implementation,
|
|
feature/tlscheck-implementation
|
|
|
|
Resolver (plan from untracked TODO.md; largely implemented on
|
|
origin/feature/resolver, verify each item before closing):
|
|
|
|
- Add github.com/miekg/dns dependency
|
|
- roots.go: hardcoded IANA root server list (a through m, IPv4/IPv6),
|
|
rootServers() returning ip:53 strings
|
|
- query.go: low-level query(ctx, server, name, qtype): UDP with TCP
|
|
fallback on truncation, RD=0, context respected, 5s per-query timeout,
|
|
returns raw *dns.Msg
|
|
- trace.go: iterative delegation chasing from roots: referral detection
|
|
(NOERROR, empty answer, NS in authority), glue extraction with
|
|
bailiwick check, out-of-bailiwick NS resolved with recursion guard,
|
|
delegation depth limit (20), retry across nameservers on failure, do
|
|
not chase CNAMEs inside trace
|
|
- FindAuthoritativeNameservers: NS set via trace, sorted, FQDN
|
|
normalized, trailing dot handled; must pass its 9 tests
|
|
- QueryNameserver: resolve NS host to IPs, query A/AAAA/CNAME/MX/TXT/
|
|
SRV/CAA/NS, build NameserverResponse with status mapping (OK,
|
|
NXDomain, NoData, Error), documented record formatting, sorted values,
|
|
lame delegation detection; must pass its 16 tests
|
|
- QueryAllNameservers: find NS set for parent domain (public suffix
|
|
list), query all NS in parallel with bounded concurrency, return map
|
|
even when all fail, context cancellation; must pass its 4 tests
|
|
- LookupNS: thin wrapper over FindAuthoritativeNameservers, sorted,
|
|
identical results; must pass its 3 tests
|
|
- ResolveIPAddresses: collect A/AAAA from all NS, follow CNAME chains
|
|
with MaxCNAMEDepth, dedupe, sort, NXDOMAIN returns empty slice with
|
|
nil error; must pass its 9 tests
|
|
- All 39 resolver tests pass, make check green, merge to main
|
|
|
|
Watcher (internal/watcher/watcher.go):
|
|
|
|
- Scheduling loop in Run(ctx): initial check on startup, separate
|
|
tickers for DNS/port and TLS intervals, persist state via state.Save()
|
|
after each cycle, clean shutdown on context cancel
|
|
- Domain check: LookupNS, compare to stored state, store silently on
|
|
first run, notify with old/new NS lists on change
|
|
- Hostname check: QueryAllNameservers, compare per-NS records; notify on
|
|
record changes, NS failure, NS recovery, inconsistency detected,
|
|
inconsistency resolved, empty response; store silently on first run
|
|
- Port check: ResolveIPAddresses, check ports 80 and 443 per IP, notify
|
|
on open/closed transitions, handle new and disappeared IPs
|
|
- TLS check: for each open IP:443, CheckCertificate; notify on expiry
|
|
warning, certificate change (CN/issuer/SANs), TLS failure/recovery
|
|
|
|
Port checker (internal/portcheck/portcheck.go):
|
|
|
|
- Tests against known-open ports and RFC documentation IPs
|
|
- CheckPort: net.DialTimeout (5s), context respected; (true, nil) open,
|
|
(false, nil) closed/timeout/refused, error only for unexpected
|
|
failures
|
|
|
|
TLS checker (internal/tlscheck/tlscheck.go):
|
|
|
|
- Tests against known public HTTPS servers, verify fields populated
|
|
- CheckCertificate: tls.Dial to specific IP:443 with hostname as SNI;
|
|
extract subject CN, issuer CN and org, NotAfter, SANs; error on
|
|
handshake failure
|
|
|
|
Notification service (internal/notify/notify.go, Slack/Mattermost/ntfy
|
|
backends exist):
|
|
|
|
- Structured notification types: DNS change, port change, TLS expiry,
|
|
TLS change, NS failure, NS recovery, NS inconsistency
|
|
- Per-backend formatting: Slack/Mattermost attachment colors (red
|
|
failures/expiry, yellow warnings, green recoveries, blue info); ntfy
|
|
priorities (urgent failures, high warnings, default changes, low
|
|
recoveries); include hostname, nameserver, old/new values, timestamps
|
|
|
|
HTTP API handlers:
|
|
|
|
- Wire *state.State and *watcher.Watcher into handler params
|
|
- GET /api/v1/status: full state snapshot as JSON
|
|
- GET /api/v1/domains: domain states with NS records and last-checked
|
|
- GET /api/v1/hostnames: hostname states with per-NS record data
|
|
|
|
Infrastructure notes (from untracked TODO.md):
|
|
|
|
- Module path sneak.berlin/go/dnswatcher differs from the git.eeqj.de
|
|
remote intentionally; do not "fix" it
|
|
- Dependencies: github.com/miekg/dns, golang.org/x/net/publicsuffix
|
|
- Resolver tests originally used live DNS against *.dns.sneak.cloud
|
|
(required records documented in the test file header); origin now has
|
|
mocked hermetic tests, keep them hermetic
|
