The canonical config now targets golangci-lint v2.12.2 (released
2026-05-06), installed commit-pinned via go install at
c0d3ddc9cf3faa61a4e378e879ece580256d76e5. Record that version next to
the .golangci.yml fetch instructions so consuming repos pin the same
linter the canonical config is written for, and bump last_modified.
Replace the hand-migrated v2 config with the exact output of
golangci-lint migrate under v2.12.2, applied and verified on
dnswatcher (sha256 8804ff50ebba0e8b4129a03600137040421e43aef9b4054a626abfd13767b28b):
- disable deprecated gomodguard (gomodguard_v2 stays enabled via
default: all; identical behavior, resolves the deprecation warning)
- add linters.exclusions and formatters.exclusions (generated: lax,
default path excludes) replicating v1 defaults
- add explicit formatters block (gofmt, gofumpt, goimports); gci is
intentionally not enabled because its two-group import ordering
conflicts with the org's stdlib/third-party/local script/fmt style
- drop the explanatory header comment so the file is byte-identical
with the verified copy consuming repos fetch
Update the TODO.md Completed Steps entry to match.
Move linter settings from the broken v1-style top-level linters-settings
key to linters.settings so golangci-lint >= v2 actually applies the
thresholds, and drop issues.exclude-use-default, which no longer exists
in the v2 schema. Add a comment documenting the v2 layout requirement.
Record the change in TODO.md Completed Steps.
Per sneak's instruction:
- Constructors **must** be `New()`, `From<Something>()`, or `NewThing()` (multi-type packages only)
- Strongly discourage creative names (`Create`, `Make`, `Build`, `Init`)
- Constructors **must** use a `Params` struct (or `ThingParams`) for 2+ arguments — no exceptions
- Single obvious argument (`ctx`, bytes) is the only exception
- `context.Context` does not count against the argument limit (already documented)

## Summary
Adds the conditional verbose test rerun pattern as a policy recommendation in REPO_POLICIES.md.
Per sneak's request from [sneak/chat PR #82](sneak/chat#82): document the pattern where `make test` runs tests without `-v` first, then automatically reruns with `-v` on failure for full diagnostic output.
## Changes
**`prompts/REPO_POLICIES.md`** (root `REPO_POLICIES.md` is a symlink to this):
- Added new policy bullet after the `make test` timeout rule
- Explains the rationale: clean CI/Docker build logs on success, full verbose output on failure
- Includes a generic shell pattern template
- Includes concrete Go and Python examples
- Documents that `exit 1` ensures the target always fails after a rerun (the rerun is solely for diagnostic output)
- Updated `last_modified` from 2026-03-12 to 2026-03-18
## The Pattern
```makefile
test:
@go test -timeout 30s -race -cover ./... || \
{ echo "--- Rerunning with -v for details ---"; \
go test -timeout 30s -race -v ./...; exit 1; }
```
- **On success**: concise package summaries only, no per-test noise
- **On failure**: automatic verbose rerun shows every test case and assertion
- **Always fails**: `exit 1` ensures the build fails regardless of second run's exit code

Documents the multistage Docker build pattern we now use across repos (chat, pixa, etc.) where a separate `lint` stage runs `make fmt-check` and `make lint` independently from the build stage.
Key additions to REPO_POLICIES.md:
- Full Dockerfile template showing the lint → build → runtime stage pattern
- Explanation of `COPY --from=lint /src/go.sum /dev/null` as the BuildKit dependency trick
- Handling `//go:embed` placeholders in the lint stage
- CGO/system library notes for the lint stage
- Clarification that tests run in the build stage, not the lint stage
Reference implementations: `sneak/chat`, `sneak/pixa`.

Closes#16
Adds a comprehensive HTTP/web service security hardening policy to `REPO_POLICIES.md` that must be satisfied before tagging 1.0. The policy covers all items sneak specified (without limitation):
**Security headers** — HSTS (min 1 year, includeSubDomains), CSP (restrictive `default-src 'self'` baseline), X-Frame-Options / frame-ancestors, X-Content-Type-Options: nosniff, Referrer-Policy, Permissions-Policy.
**Request/response limits** — max request body size on all endpoints, max response size for paginated APIs, ReadTimeout + ReadHeaderTimeout (slowloris defense), WriteTimeout, IdleTimeout, per-handler execution time limits.
**Authentication & session security** — rate limiting on password-based auth (API keys exempt as high-entropy), CSRF tokens on state-mutating forms (header-auth APIs exempt), bcrypt/scrypt/argon2 for passwords, session cookies with HttpOnly + Secure + SameSite.
**Reverse proxy awareness** — true client IP detection via X-Forwarded-For/X-Real-IP with trusted proxy allowlist (never trust unconditionally).
**CORS** — explicit origin allowlist for authenticated endpoints; wildcard only for public unauthenticated read-only APIs.
**Error handling** — no leaking stack traces, SQL queries, file paths, or implementation details to clients.
**TLS** — HSTS and secure cookie flags required regardless of whether the service terminates TLS directly or sits behind a reverse proxy.
The policy is explicitly non-exhaustive (defense-in-depth: "when in doubt, harden").
Also adds corresponding checklist sections to `EXISTING_REPO_CHECKLIST.md` and `NEW_REPO_CHECKLIST.md` so that HTTP hardening is verified during repo setup and 1.0 preparation.

Add policy rule: build artifacts and code-derived data must not be committed to repos if they can be generated during the build process.
Notable exception: Go protobuf-generated files (`.pb.go`) may be committed because `go get` downloads source but does not execute build steps.
This addresses feedback from sneak/chat PR [#61](sneak/chat#61).

Updates LLM_PROSE_TELLS.md with three new patterns (two-clause compound sentence, almost-hedge, unnecessary contrast), the lol section with conversation excerpts, fixes for instances of these patterns throughout, and a bracket escaping fix for prettier idempotency. Checklist is now 24 items.

Types should live alongside their implementations, not in separate
'types', 'domain', or 'models' packages. Type-only packages cause
alias imports and indicate poor package design.
Prompted by review feedback on upaas PR #126.
Split quickstart into separate repo-policy and code-style passes, clone
prompts repo once instead of per-command, and make each prompt
self-contained so agents don't need memory of prior runs.
