Conversation
GITLAWB_PUBLIC_READ is read nowhere except a startup warning, while read enforcement actually happens per repository through is_public and path-scoped visibility rules. The flag's help text, the startup warning, .env.example, and the readiness audit all still claimed private-read enforcement was unwired. The help and warning now state the flag is reserved and inert, and point at the real per-repo control. A config test asserts the rendered help neither claims enforcement is missing nor omits that the flag does nothing. Closes #338.

The test says it must ensure operators are directed to the real per-repository control, but it only requires “inert” and forbids the exact phrase “not wired.” Removing every reference to is_public and path-scoped visibility—or describing missing enforcement with different words—would leave the test green. Assert the substantive guidance so this correction remains protected.

| - Push authorization is still not capability-complete. A valid DID signature is authentication, not authorization. Owner checks are now enforced on every branch, protected or not (`GITLAWB_ENFORCE_OWNER_PUSH`, on by default); what remains is that a UCAN `git/push` capability is not yet honored, so a delegated or CI key cannot push. | ||
| - UCAN chain validation is incomplete and UCAN revocation/blocklisting is not implemented as an operator feature. | ||
| - Private repository reads are not enforced. `is_public` and `GITLAWB_PUBLIC_READ` exist, but per-repository private-read behavior is not wired. | ||
| - Private repository reads are enforced per repository through `is_public` and path-scoped visibility rules. `GITLAWB_PUBLIC_READ` remains reserved and inert. |

This entry remains under “Live-network blockers to prioritize,” but the revised text now says private-read enforcement is implemented and the remaining flag is intentionally inert. Keeping this resolved, non-actionable statement in the blocker list makes the readiness audit ambiguous; remove it or move it to a section that records implemented controls.

149-149: 📐 Maintainability & Code Quality | 🟡 Minor | ⚡ Quick winRemove the stale private-read blocker from the audit.
Line 98 states that private repository reads are enforced. Line 149 still instructs the project to implement private-read enforcement or remove private repository affordances. Update Line 149 so the audit does not report the same control as both implemented and missing. This can mislead release prioritization and operator review.

Summary
GITLAWB_PUBLIC_READis read nowhere except a startup warning, while read enforcement actually happens per repository throughis_publicand path-scoped visibility rules. The flag's help text, the startup warning,.env.example, and the readiness audit all still claimed private-read enforcement was unwired. This corrects the messaging to say the flag is reserved and inert, and points operators at the real per-repo control.Motivation & context
Closes #338
The stale text told operators the flag might do something and implied the node had no private-read enforcement, neither true.
Kind of change
What changed
config.rs: thepublic_readhelp now says the setting is reserved and inert and points atis_public/ path-scoped visibility.main.rs: the startup warning now saysGITLAWB_PUBLIC_READ=falsehas no effect and names the real controls..env.exampleanddocs/OSS-READINESS-AUDIT.md: same correction; the audit now records that private reads are enforced per repository and the flag remains reserved.How a reviewer can verify
The second command prints the corrected warning on a real startup (the flag is read only by that warning; there is nothing else to wire). The help test fails on the old text, which contained "not wired".

Notes for reviewers
Open-PR overlap: #194 relocates this warning from
main.rsintolib.rsand carries the old text with it. Whichever lands second should move the corrected wording, not the stale one. #219 appends a status section at the audit doc's end (different region). No open PR touches the flag's help or the.env.exampleline.Summary by CodeRabbit
GITLAWB_PUBLIC_READis reserved and currently has no effect.
