HAN Message Safety v2

Production-oriented internal FastAPI service for deterministic text, URL and quarantined-file safety checks. PostgreSQL is the durable source of truth for idempotency, tasks, leases, fencing, caches, audit and immutable config snapshots. Redis is intentionally optional and may only accelerate hot-cache/rate/wakeup paths.

Local verification

Python 3.12 is required. These commands do not start services:

python -m pip install -e ".[dev]"
pytest
ruff check .
message-safety-config validate app/artifacts/seed-config.yaml

Migrations and config administration require MESSAGE_SAFETY_CONFIG_ADMIN_DATABASE_URL_FILE. Runtime secrets are accepted only through *_FILE; the entrypoint rejects missing/empty files without printing their values.

alembic upgrade head
message-safety-config create app/artifacts/seed-config.yaml --version 1 --actor migration
message-safety-config activate --version 1 --approved-by security-owner

Deployment boundary

docker-compose.fragment.yml is an include fragment for the root VM2 Compose. It publishes no host port, runs API and worker as UID 10001 with a read-only filesystem, drops all capabilities, and mounts only service-specific secret files. The root project owns networks/secrets and the root-owned emergency mode file.

External release gates

The following cannot be proven by repository-only tests and must remain fail-closed until the target environment verifies them:

• Selectel S3 supports version-specific GetObject, signed conditional ETag behavior, bucket versioning, checksum metadata, virtual-host addressing and a read-only IAM policy without list/write/delete.
• ClamAV engine/signature metadata is supplied to readiness and task cache keys; freshclam activate/reload, signature-age alarms and clean/EICAR/malformed corpora pass on VM2.
• HEIF native decoding and PDF parser sandbox resource limits pass the approved corpus. The in-process detector is bounded by 5 MiB and validates active/encrypted PDF markers, but OS-level CPU/memory/wall-time isolation must be enforced by the worker container and target runtime.
• Managed PostgreSQL role grants prove runtime cannot migrate or activate config, while the config-admin role can; migration constraint, concurrent activation, lease and fencing tests run against PostgreSQL (not SQLite).
• Trusted resolver, DNS rebinding corpus, S3 canary and worker heartbeat are wired into production readiness probes.
• Image dependencies are resolved to a reviewed lock/SBOM and the final image is pinned by digest in the root Compose release manifest.
• Target load gates (10 text checks/s, 2 file checks/s, 100 pending tasks, five worker slots) and privacy/log redaction are verified in production-like infrastructure.
