Registered in the product at the 3b1a5aa re-pin (redact-secret PR #1214, unreleased), with a benchmark contract and a seeded corpus (#583, `beta8-583c`); the claim stays provisional until the conformance and arrival gates and the open ruling questions settle. Not a support claim. Handoff sourcegraph.md (READY for sgp_).

New pipelineAuthority

Built from the new pipeline

The new pipeline is the authority for credential qualification. These numbers are read from the qualification view derived from the official credential-eval run of the public-evidence-snapshot population. The regression and policy populations keep their own counts on the qualification pages and are not added in here.

Maintainer-reviewed (independent review pending)

598 fixtures of the 7,041 in evidence release snapshot-2026.10.06.4 carry this label. They are counted in the numbers on this page.

Passed the project’s own verification (source evidence, automated checks, recorded counter-arguments); not yet independently reviewed.

OpenRedaction default (all patterns): not measured in this run (optional)

The default (all-pattern) profile is slow and noisy for credential evaluation: personal data and resource identifiers dominate its findings, and its last official measurement took 7 minutes of scanner time on a population the credential profile scans in seconds (its methods run takes 40+ minutes), so it is a manual measurement and never blocks other scanners or core verification (#763). Its earlier results stay as history with their run identity; the credential profile is a separate scanner, never spliced with it.

Last measurement: policy-corpus@linux-x64 (configuration sha256:2451ce7bf380), public-evidence-snapshot+methods@linux-x64 (configuration sha256:d47d081ce5fb), public-evidence-snapshot@linux-x64 (configuration sha256:2451ce7bf380), regression-corpus@linux-x64 (configuration sha256:2451ce7bf380) · engine 0.1.0-alpha.5 · recorded 2026-10-05 · retained record, no longer listed by the run registry. It stays labelled with that run identity and is never combined with another profile or another run.

OpenRedaction credential profile (33 types): not measured in an official run (local exploratory diagnostics only: see ADR)

The credential profile is the comparison profile chosen in docs/decisions/2026-10-06-choose-the-openredaction-credential-bearing-profile-as-the-comparison-scanner.md. It is optional in the official run class because no pinned engine configuration measures it yet: making it required would refuse every official view until the owner approves the one profile-only run. Its own history starts with that run; nothing of the default's is reused for it.

No earlier measurement of it is recorded. Nothing is shown in its place.

Official measurement: pending: requires owner approval (one profile-only run; see the decision).

Benchmark dossier notes

From the provider dossier, as written. The evidence level above says how well the format is backed; a fact the dossier does not record is not shown.

Shape: sgp_ + an optional instance identifier (local, 16 hex issued, or any alphanumeric run per the 2025-11 validator) + _ + exactly 40 hex (the generator emits lower case; both validators accept either case).
Basis: T1 (provider generator and validator, R1 and R9). READY for sgp_. The benchmark contract and seeded corpus are authored (#583, slice c): positives in the #860 contexts and the provider-native contexts (Authorization: token, MCP env block, src login, CI env), one-property twins (body length, alphabet, separator, prefix case, boundary) and benign, public-id, placeholder and reference controls. Unclaimed (T0, no assertion): an identifier over 32 bytes (detector policy cap), sgph_ and sgd_ + 64 hex (Cody Gateway).
Issuance: not attempted; the handoff records no issuance gate.
Contract in core: detector-families.md (the detector is registered on main, redact-secret#1103, unreleased). The benchmark contract is benchmarks/lib/beta8/583c.ts (T1, sourcegraph-token), with the corpus in fixtures/generated/beta8/583c.mjs. Pinned peers (trufflehog sourcegraph, gitleaks sourcegraph-access-token) read a 16-hex or local identifier and a bare 40-hex; lag on an alphanumeric identifier is measured, not assumed.

Values the dossier records as resembling this credential without being one.

Collisions: the bare 40-hex legacy token and git SHAs (a git-SHA control sits in the corpus), sgp_ placeholders in src help text; see the handoff's excluded shapes.
