LOC Reduction / Codebase Simplicity Review
Why this blocks
src/lib/onboard/initial-policy-real-policy.test.ts:75-81createsmanagedStartupCaPolicyCases.- Lines 216-222 already define the identical
packageDatabasePolicyCases. - The new source-of-truth assertion therefore sits on one of two hand-maintained copies of the same policy mapping.
Refactor direction
- Move the existing complete table earlier and rename it to describe the shared managed-image policy cases.
- Reuse it for both the managed-startup CA test and the package-database test.
- Keep
SHIPPED_MANAGED_IMAGE_AGENTSandMANAGED_STARTUP_MERGED_CA_FILEas the production-owned agent and path constants.
Expected result
- Declare every shipping policy path once.
- Prevent future agent or policy additions from updating one contract test while silently missing the other.

LOC Reduction / Codebase Simplicity Review
Why this blocks
- The prior duplicate inventory remains at the latest PR commit.
managedStartupCaPolicyCasesatsrc/lib/onboard/initial-policy-real-policy.test.ts:89-95andpackageDatabasePolicyCasesat lines 261-267 are identical.- The new completeness assertion at lines 97-119 repeats all six path and agent tuples literally, so the update now represents the same shipping-policy matrix three times.
Refactor direction
- Define the complete shipped managed-image policy cases once and reuse that array for both the managed-startup CA and package-database tests.
- Derive the completeness check from
SHIPPED_MANAGED_IMAGE_AGENTSplus that single policy inventory instead of restating the tuple list. - Keep a derived subset only for contracts, such as PTY access, that genuinely exclude Deep Agents Code.
Expected result
Each shipping policy path is declared once, both contract tests consume the same inventory, and roughly 20-25 lines of duplicate table and assertion data disappear. A new shipping policy cannot update one test while silently missing the other.

LOC Reduction / Codebase Simplicity Review
Re-reviewed exact commit 53efaff8d6e9caa8ff0fc94063da30e7d9f95c7e.
The prior duplicate-policy-matrix blocker is resolved. managedImagePolicyPathsByAgent now declares each shipping path once, managedImagePolicyCases is derived once and reused by both the managed-startup CA and package-database tests, and only the genuinely narrower Deep-Agents-excluding subset remains.
I found no new blocking LOC-reduction or codebase-simplicity finding at this commit. This is a scope-limited follow-up, not an approval or a correctness, security, or CI review.
Resolved by 53efaff: one derived policy inventory now owns both contract tests. See the current scope-limited simplicity follow-up.

Managed startup writes the active CA bundle to `/run/nemoclaw/managed-startup-ca-bundle.pem`, but the shipping filesystem policies do not allow agents to read that file. This change grants exact-file read access without granting access to the mutable `/run/nemoclaw` directory. Fixes #9360 - Grant the managed startup CA bundle exact read-only access in each shipping OpenClaw, Hermes, and LangChain Deep Agents Code baseline and permissive policy. - Add a real-policy regression test that covers every shipping managed-image agent and rejects read or write grants to `/run` and `/run/nemoclaw`. - [x] Code change (feature, bug fix, or refactor) - [ ] Code change with doc updates - [ ] Doc only (prose changes, no code sample modifications) - [ ] Doc only (includes code sample changes) - [x] Tests added or updated for changed behavior - [ ] Existing tests cover changed behavior — justification: - [ ] Tests not applicable — justification: - [x] Sensitive paths changed (security, policy, credentials, preflight, onboarding, inference, runner, sandbox, or messaging) - [x] Sensitive-path review completed or maintainer-approved waiver recorded — reviewer/approval link/justification: [PR Review Advisor](https://github.com/NVIDIA/NemoClaw/actions/runs/32094112349) reported 0 blockers, 0 warnings, and 0 suggestions on exact head `53efaff8d6`; maintainer security review found no findings. - [ ] Non-success, skipped, or missing CI check accepted by maintainer — check name, approval link, and follow-up issue: - [ ] Tested on DGX Station - Tested commit: - Station profile/scenario: - Result: - Supporting evidence: - [x] PR description includes a `Signed-off-by:` line and every commit appears as `Verified` in GitHub - [x] Normal `pre-commit`, `commit-msg`, and `pre-push` hooks passed, or `npm run validate:pr` passed after refreshing `origin/main` when hooks were skipped or unavailable - [x] Targeted behavior tests pass for the current change set, or tests are marked not applicable above — command/result or justification: `npx vitest run --project cli src/lib/onboard/initial-policy-real-policy.test.ts` passed 59/59; `npm run validate:configs` validated all 53 configuration files. - [ ] Applicable broad gate passed — `npm test` for broad runtime/test-harness changes; `npm run check` for repo-wide validation/coverage changes — command/result: Not run; this diff changes six policy entries and one focused regression test. - [x] Quality Gates section completed with required justifications or waivers - [x] No secrets, API keys, or credentials committed - [ ] `npm run docs` builds without warnings (doc changes only) - [ ] Doc pages follow the [style guide](https://github.com/NVIDIA/NemoClaw/blob/main/docs/CONTRIBUTING.md) (doc changes only) - [ ] New doc pages include SPDX header and frontmatter (new pages only) --- Signed-off-by: Aaron Erickson <aerickson@nvidia.com> <!-- This is an auto-generated comment: release notes by coderabbit.ai --> * **Bug Fixes** * Updated sandbox policies to provide read-only access to the managed startup certificate bundle. * Ensured startup certificate access does not broaden permissions for other runtime directories. * Improved certificate availability during startup while preserving existing filesystem protections across supported managed agents. * **Tests** * Added coverage verifying the certificate bundle is readable, not writable, and restricted to the intended path across supported managed agents. * Expanded policy validation to cover all shipped agent and sandbox policy combinations. <!-- end of auto-generated comment: release notes by coderabbit.ai --> --------- Signed-off-by: Aaron Erickson <aerickson@nvidia.com>
