Three Priority-1 follow-ups from the lint review.
Lint CI gains two non-blocking gates that surface drift without
blocking merges (the same shape as the existing format-drift step):
- codespell: typo catcher across source / comments / docs. Skips
lockfiles, generated assets, binary artefacts, LICENSE files.
ignore-words-list pulls out short identifiers and PyTorch
idioms (parm/parms, ans, hist, etc.) the default dictionary
would flag. Local run finds 16 real typos to fix in a follow-up.
- shellcheck: catches subtle shell bugs `bash -n` doesn't see --
unquoted expansions, useless cat, `[[ ]]` command substitution,
etc. SC1090 + SC2034 muted because install/setup scripts
legitimately source runtime paths and use export-only
assignments. Critical-path coverage: install.sh, setup.sh,
tests/sh/.
Both pinned for reproducibility (codespell>=2.3,<3 in pip,
shellcheck via apt-get). Both surface findings in PR annotations
without failing the run; drop continue-on-error after the cleanup
PRs land.
New workflow: Security audit. Runs `pip-audit` against the same
dep set Studio's backend pytest matrix installs, so we audit what
the runtime actually loads (not what pyproject.toml's transitive
resolution might pull in differently). Triggers:
- PRs touching requirements / pyproject.toml,
- push to main / pip,
- nightly @ 04:13 UTC (off-the-hour to dodge cron rush),
- workflow_dispatch.
The default branch already carries 17 known vulnerabilities per
the dependabot banner, so a hard gate today would block every PR
on a baseline we have not triaged. Non-blocking; full table goes
to GITHUB_STEP_SUMMARY for grep-ability and a 30-day artefact for
historical comparison.
The custom AST anti-pattern scan I prototyped was dropped: every
class of CPU-import-time bug we hit in this PR (bitsandbytes,
torchvision, _cuda_getCurrentRawStream, DEVICE_COUNT==0 stream
init) is already caught by the Repo tests (CPU) job exercising
the actual import on a CPU torch wheel. Restating the rule
in AST form would only add noise.
