From e087ebb0ff71a15ca5ccb893ca7e4240f182a546 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Kyle Isom Date: Sat, 26 Sep 2026 04:16:27 -0700 Subject: [PATCH] M5b plan: task 05, sanitize::normalise and sanitize::flag Task 05 adds normalise (case, full width, white space and zero-width, leetspeak, fifty Cyrillic and Greek look-alikes from UTS #39 confusables 18.0.0) and flag: nine rules, eight ported from Hermes Agent's tools/threat_patterns.py (NousResearch/hermes-agent at d0288be, MIT) as word sequences with bounded gaps, and M5a's six phrases. Given: two skeletons (eleven small todo!()s, tables whole) and two test files (21 unit tests, 4 corpus tests including Russian and Greek notes and a table of decided edges). Checks: the given tests fail before for unresolved imports only (E0432); the reference (ref 05) passes make gate on rustc 1.98.1, 1022 tests; the task applied to a fresh ref-04 copy is byte-identical to it; 45 one-line mutations, each caught; /tmp unchanged around the gate; no chat-template tag in the task or given files; given files pass rustfmt and the 500-line limit; every todo!() comment read beside its signature.

Any other character goes through `push_folded`: full-width + to ASCII first, then the look-alike table, and only a character with no look-alike is + lower-cased and passed through `leet`. `invisible` is the refuse rule's own list, in + `refuse.rs`; edit E2 lets `normalise.rs` call it. +- **Full width**: U+FF01 to U+FF5E, inclusive, are the ASCII characters U+0021 to U+007E plus + `0xFEE0`. U+FF00 and U+FF5F are outside the range and stay as they are. +- **Words**: `flag` (given) splits the normalised text at its single spaces and drops empty + pieces, so `words` never holds an empty string or a space. A rule's shape is a `Phrase` (text + found anywhere, as M5a matched) or a `Seq` of `Part`s, matched against the words in order, + starting at any word (`shape_matches`, given): + + | Part | Takes | Matches when | + |---|---|---| + | `Is(keywords)` | exactly one word | `is(word, keywords)` | + | `Holds(pieces)` | exactly one word | the word contains one of `pieces` (`str::contains`) | + | `Filler(max)` | 0 to `max` words | each skipped word passes `filler` | + | `Gap(max)` | 0 to `max` words | each skipped word passes `in_sentence` | + + After a part takes its words, the parts after it (`rest`) must match the words after those. + `seq_at` and `one_word` and `skip` call each other: that recursion is the whole matcher. The + words after the last part are never looked at. +- **An example.** For `Seq(&[Is(&["send"]), Gap(12), Is(&["to"]), Holds(&["https://"])])` and the + words `send the logs to https://x.example`: `Is` takes `send`; `Gap` tries skipping 0 words (then + `the` is not `to`), 1 (`logs` is not `to`), 2 (`to` is `to`, and `https://x.example` holds + `https://`): a match. For `send the logs. docs at https://x.example` the gap may skip `the` but + not `logs.`, which ends a sentence, so there is no match. +- **`skip`** tries the counts 0, 1, …, `max` in turn. Once a word fails `test`, no larger count + can match (its skipped words include that one), and neither can a count past the end of `words` + (`split_at_checked` gives `None`): return `false` then. +- **`is`** strips from both ends of the word every character that is not a letter, a digit or `_` + (`"instructions."` → `instructions`, `"(ignore"` → `ignore`), and compares the word as it stands + and the stripped one with each keyword. Both matter: a keyword may be punctuation itself + (`">"`, whose stripped form is empty), and `ssh-add` must not be `add` (only the ends are + stripped). +- **Given code you must not change**: the module comments, `Flag`, `Part`, `Shape`, `Rule`, the + constants and word lists, `RULES`, `flag`, `shape_matches`, and in `normalise.rs` the three + tables. `Flag` has no offset on purpose: an offset in the normalised text does not point into + the original. +- The calls you need, all in the standard library: + + | Call | Signature, and what it gives | + |---|---| + | `str::chars` | `text.chars()`: an iterator of the text's `char`s | + | `char::is_whitespace`, `char::is_alphanumeric` | `c.is_whitespace() -> bool`; letters and digits of any script | + | `invisible` (in `refuse.rs`, after E2) | `fn invisible(c: char) -> bool` | + | `String::with_capacity`, `push`, `is_empty` | `String::with_capacity(text.len())`; `out.push(' ')`; `out.is_empty()` | + | `u32::from`, `RangeInclusive::contains` | `u32::from(c)`: the code point; `(FULL_WIDTH.0..=FULL_WIDTH.1).contains(&code)` | + | `u32::checked_sub`, `char::from_u32` | `code.checked_sub(FULL_WIDTH_OFFSET) -> Option`; `char::from_u32(u32) -> Option` | + | `Option::and_then`, `unwrap_or`, `map`, `map_or`, `is_some_and` | `opt.and_then(char::from_u32)`, `opt.unwrap_or(c)`, `opt.map_or(c, \|&(_, letter)\| letter)` | + | `slice::iter`, `Iterator::find` | `LEET.iter().find(\|&&(digit, _)\| digit == c)`: `Option<&(char, char)>` | + | `char::to_lowercase` | `c.to_lowercase()`: an iterator of `char` (one letter may lower-case to two) | + | `Iterator::map`, `String::extend` | `out.extend(c.to_lowercase().map(leet))`: pushes each | + | `slice::split_first` | `words.split_first() -> Option<(&&str, &[&str])>`; `parts.split_first() -> Option<(&Part, &[Part])>` | + | `slice::split_at_checked` | `words.split_at_checked(count) -> Option<(&[&str], &[&str])>`: `None` past the end | + | `Iterator::all`, `Iterator::any` | `skipped.iter().all(\|word\| test(word))`; `pieces.iter().any(\|piece\| word.contains(piece))` | + | `str::trim_matches` | `word.trim_matches(\|c: char\| !(c.is_alphanumeric() \|\| c == '_'))` | + | `str::ends_with` | `word.ends_with(['.', '!', '?', ';'])`: true if the last character is one of them | + | `slice::contains` | `["&&", "\|\|", "\|"].contains(&word)` | + +## The edits, exactly + +**E1.** `crates/bxcore/src/sanitize/mod.rs` today is exactly: + +```rust +//!
