SeedPass/memory-update.md

Memory Update (2026-02-25)

Docs Cleanup

• Replaced docs/README.md content that referenced Archivox with a SeedPass-focused docs index.
• Updated docs-site default title in docs/src/config/loadConfig.js from Archivox to SeedPass Docs.

Outcome

• Removed stale Archivox branding from the docs README and default docs title so the correct SeedPass README/content is displayed.

Supply Chain and Release Integrity (Checklist #8)

• Added a dedicated release integrity workflow at .github/workflows/release-integrity.yml.
• Workflow now enforces lockfile drift checks, runs pip-audit, builds release artifacts, generates SHA256SUMS, signs checksum manifest with keyless cosign, and publishes signatures/certs with release assets.
• Added scripts/release_integrity.py CLI with check-lockfile, generate, and verify subcommands.
• Added reusable checksum logic in src/seedpass/release_integrity.py and regression tests in src/tests/test_release_integrity_utils.py.
• Updated docs/security_readiness_checklist.md item #8 from Not Started to In Progress with evidence links.
• Added process documentation in docs/supply_chain_release_integrity.md and linked it from docs/README.md and README.md.

Determinism Regression Guardrail

• Added src/tests/test_deterministic_artifact_regression.py to lock deterministic vectors at index 352 for password, SSH, seed phrase, TOTP, PGP (fingerprint + armored hash), and Nostr keys.
• Added repeatability assertions for same-seed/same-index derivation in the same run.
• Logged explicit remaining tasks to finish checklist item #8 in both docs/supply_chain_release_integrity.md and TODO.md.

CI Determinism Enforcement

• Expanded deterministic regression vectors to cover indices 0, 1, 352, and 1024 across password, SSH, seed phrase, TOTP, and Nostr outputs.
• Added pinned PGP vectors for both ed25519 and rsa at index 352 (fingerprints + armored key hashes).
• Added explicit deterministic regression steps to push CI workflows:
  • .github/workflows/python-ci.yml
  • .github/workflows/tests.yml

Profile Unlock Failure Recovery

• Hardened startup profile selection to avoid fatal crash loops when unlock/decryption fails or is cancelled.
• select_fingerprint(...) now returns False on unlock/setup failure instead of always raising; selection menu now keeps the user in-flow.
• Added profile recovery flow recover_profile_with_blank_index() reachable from seed-profile selection menu.
• Recovery flow verifies that user-provided seed matches selected fingerprint, then re-encrypts seed and resets local entry index/checksum files to a blank state.
• Fixed "switch to existing profile" path during add-new-seed so it does not call initialize_managers() without an initialized EncryptionManager.
• Added regression tests in src/tests/test_profile_recovery_flow.py for these paths.

TUI Crash Hardening

• Hardened display_menu() to catch per-action PasswordPromptError, SeedPassError, and generic exceptions so failures no longer terminate the whole TUI session.
• Added graceful timeout-lock recovery messaging when unlock is cancelled/failed after inactivity timeout.
• Fixed incorrect call signature in Add Entry submenu header rendering (clear_header_with_notification(...) now receives password_manager).
• Added crash-regression coverage in src/tests/test_cli_invalid_input.py for action failures and timeout-unlock cancellation handling.

Settings/Relay Submenu Hardening

• Added local exception guards in handle_settings, handle_profiles_menu, and handle_nostr_menu so submenu actions report failures and return control instead of crashing the TUI.
• Added explicit graceful handling for Settings -> Lock Vault unlock cancellations/failures.
• Corrected clear_header_with_notification(...) call signatures in settings-related submenus to pass password_manager as first argument.
• Added regression tests in src/tests/test_settings_menu.py for:
  • missing settings handler method
  • lock/unlock cancellation
  • profiles submenu action failure

Import/Export + Nostr Workflow Guardrails

• Hardened settings menu options for export/import/TOTP export with explicit error messaging (Export failed, Import failed, 2FA export failed) instead of generic crashes.
• Added graceful no-path handling for Settings -> Import (No path entered.).
• Hardened CLI subcommand entrypoints in main.py:
  • require --file for export/import
  • catch and report failures for export, import, search, get, and totp commands.
• Added regression tests for these cases in:
  • src/tests/test_settings_menu.py
  • src/tests/test_cli_export_import.py

Installer Dependency Resolution Fix (2026-02-26)

• Root cause of installer failures was a stale requirements.lock pin (cffi==1.17.1) conflicting with pynacl==1.6.2 (requires cffi>=2.0.0 on Python >=3.9).
• A second hidden source issue blocked clean lock regeneration: starlette>=0.49.1 was incompatible with fastapi>=0.110 resolution path (current fastapi metadata requires starlette<0.48).
• Updated dependency sources to consistent constraints:
  • src/requirements.txt: starlette>=0.40,<0.48
  • src/runtime_requirements.txt: starlette>=0.40,<0.48
  • pyproject.toml: starlette = ">=0.40,<0.48"
• Regenerated requirements.lock with hashes; key resolved pins now include:
  • cffi==2.0.0
  • pynacl==1.6.2
  • fastapi==0.116.1
  • starlette==0.47.3
• Verified the installer-critical step succeeds in a fresh virtualenv:
  • python -m pip install --require-hashes -r requirements.lock

TORCH Windows Checkout Fix (2026-02-26)

• Root cause: tracked TORCH artifact filenames used : in timestamps (e.g. CONTEXT_2026-02-15T01:03:31Z.md), which Windows cannot checkout.
• Confirmed scheduler/runtime already emits Windows-safe scheduler/memory filenames (HH-mm-ss), and backup folder names were already sanitized.
• Removed all tracked colon-variant duplicates under torch/src/* and torch/_backups/* where matching dash-variant files already existed.
• Validation: git ls-files | rg ':' now returns no results.
