Make the pinned golangci-lint actually reach the host (closes #28)
REPO_POLICIES.md now carries the canonical script/bootstrap snippet for Go
repos alongside the .golangci.yml bullet, where the pinned linter version
already lives.

The guard it replaces, `if missing golangci-lint; then go install ...; fi`,
tests PATH presence and never version, so on any already-provisioned machine
the pin is inert and a version bump is a no-op. The Dockerfile installs
unconditionally into a clean image, so CI and local then disagree about what
the linter is: a local `make check` green while `make docker` rejects the same
commit, and a container run surfacing findings the host run cannot see.

Comparing versions alone is not enough. `go install` writes to GOBIN (or
GOPATH/bin) while callers resolve through PATH, so a shadowing binary earlier
in PATH lets the install succeed and change nothing a caller ever sees, while
bootstrap prints success. The canonical form therefore compares the installed
version against the pin, re-resolves through PATH after installing and asserts
the pin, failing non-zero and naming the shadowing path when it does not, and
treats any unparseable --version output as a mismatch so the failure direction
is a redundant install rather than a skipped one.

The policy text states each of those as a requirement rather than leaving them
implicit in the code, records why the commit-pinned `go install` ref satisfies
the hash-pinning rule (a commit hash is not a mutable tag, and the go command
verifies the module against the checksum database), and requires that any
change to this logic be validated with a negative control run against a
shadowing binary, because a control without one passes against the naive
implementation too.

The node and yarn handling described earlier in the document is untouched.

Verified by extracting the snippet to a scratch harness with fake `go` and both
fake and real golangci-lint binaries: shadowing fails loudly and names the
path while the naive compare-then-install form reports success with the stale
2.7.2 still resolved; a wrong version at the install target is replaced;
garbage, empty and non-zero --version output all reinstall; the matching case
runs zero installs. The block in the document is byte-identical to the one
exercised.

# Workflow
- branch (from `main`)
- do the work in Next Step
- move Next Step to the top of Completed Steps
- move the top item of Future Steps into Next Step
- commit (`TODO.md` changes in the same commit as the work)
- merge to `main` if the branch is not protected, otherwise open a PR
- push
# Status
pre-1.0
# Next Step
Finish the two draft prompt documents in the working tree and commit them:
prompts/FIXUP_CLEAN.md (currently a near-empty stub) and prompts/FIXUP_REPORT.md
(a rough draft). Write the missing content, run `make fmt` so they pass
fmt-check, and commit.
# Completed Steps
- 2026-08-09: Made the pinned golangci-lint actually propagate: REPO_POLICIES.md
now carries the canonical `script/bootstrap` snippet for Go repos, which
installs when the installed version does not match the pin (the old
`if missing` guard tested PATH presence only, so pins were inert on any
provisioned machine and CI silently disagreed with local) and then re-resolves
the binary through `PATH` and fails loudly, naming the shadowing path, when
the install did not take effect — the failure mode the naive
compare-then-install fix leaves behind while reporting success.
- 2026-08-09: Fixed the false green in the canonical CI gate: `script/cibuild`
and `script/docker` now pass a per-invocation `CHECK_EPOCH` nonce, and the
`Dockerfile` (plus the Go multistage template in REPO_POLICIES.md, in both its
lint and builder stages) declares `ARG CHECK_EPOCH` with a guard that makes a
bare `docker build .` fail closed. Corrected the org-canonical text that
asserted a successful build implies all checks pass, across every document
carrying it: `REPO_POLICIES.md`, both repo checklists (which still told agents
to write the pre-fix `script/cibuild` and ended on an acceptance item the
guard makes unsatisfiable), and the Go styleguide.
- 2026-08-07: Set the canonical `.golangci.yml` to the org-standard v2-schema
config already deployed byte-identical across the org's Go repos (settings
under `linters.settings` so thresholds like lll/funlen/cyclop/dupl actually
apply under golangci-lint v2). Recorded the canonical golangci-lint version
(v2.12.2, commit-pinned) in REPO_POLICIES.md.
- 2026-03-20: Strengthened constructor naming and Params struct rules in the Go
styleguide.
- 2026-03-18: Documented fail-fast Dockerfile lint stage and conditional -v test
rerun patterns in REPO_POLICIES.md.
- 2026-03-11: Added HTTP service hardening policy for 1.0 releases.
- 2026-03-10: Added policy: no build artifacts in repos.
- 2026-03-04: Added LLM prose tells reference and copyediting checklist, then
several self-applied revision passes.
- 2026-02-28: Expanded the pre-1.0 schema migration rule; added clawpub
reference.
- 2026-02-23: Added Go style rules (no type-only packages, Stringer for
string-based types); template repos section in README.
- 2026-02-22: Initial policy corpus: REPO_POLICIES.md, code styleguides
(general, Go, JS, Python), repo checklists, CI policy, hash pinning, Go HTTP
server conventions, repo scaffolding.
# Future Steps
- Finish, format, and commit FIXUP_CLEAN.md and FIXUP_REPORT.md (the Next Step).
- Commit this TODO.md at the repo root; it is the last missing policy file.
- Decide the fate of untracked resume.sh: commit it or delete it.
- Add more prompt templates for common development tasks (from README TODO).
