- Human review: if the proposed `hara-builder` description rewrite looks right, ship it as a manual commit and close #3. If it doesn't, leave a comment on #3 and I'll re-touch with the corrected direction next week.
- Future hardening: bake the four extra safety-domain prefixes (`dia/fmeda/hsi/item-definition`) into a constants file so the classifier doesn't drift again on the next regeneration script tweak.
- Issue #2 ("goodd") still needs Sunday TRIAGE — still too low-confidence to label.
## 2026-05-13 (autonomous run, POLISH)
**Mode:** POLISH
**Action:** Regenerated STATUS.md and ran second POLISH pass on `cs-concept-builder.skill` (W20 issue #4). Wrote `docs/skill-polish-log/cs-concept-builder.md` with four low-severity findings and a drafted ≤1024-char description rewrite. No `.skill` edits applied — none of the findings matched the autonomous-edit allowlist (typo / over-length / missing required field).
**Files touched:**
- `STATUS.md` (regenerated — only the header date changed; classifier produced byte-identical body to yesterday's, confirming the prefix ordering fix for `safety-program-` / `safety-gate-``program-mgmt` is now stable)
- `docs/skill-polish-log/cs-concept-builder.md` (new)
- `docs/AUTONOMOUS_LOG.md` (this entry)
**Tests:** N/A (no test suite in this repo yet)
**Skill count:** 76 builders / 76 reviewers / 100.0% paired (aliases honored: `item-definition-builder ↔ item-def-checklist-reviewer`, `ppap-package-builder ↔ ppap-checklist-reviewer`)
**Open issues:** 5 (#2 untriaged + #3#6 W20 weekly targets — unchanged from yesterday)
**Notes:** POLISH priority order ran the same as Tuesday: no `skill-bug` / `reviewer-finding` issues open, no orphan builders, so the next W20 issue (#4 `cs-concept-builder.skill`) was the target. The skill is in genuinely good shape — AAICAN list correct and complete in canonical order inside the first 400 chars (the DoD "accuracy" check); 784/1024 description chars with ~240 chars of headroom; mentor-quality common-pitfalls section; upstream/downstream pipeline linkage (cs-goals-builder → here → CSI) named explicitly. Findings are all low-severity trigger-coverage gaps: `CAL allocation` absent, `CSR derivation` at char 607 (outside the asked-for 400-char window), casual framings thin, and `CSI handoff` only present with the parenthetical gloss. A drafted rewrite is in the polish log; not auto-applied because editorial trigger-reordering is outside the autonomous-edit allowlist. This is now the **second consecutive POLISH finding** with the same shape — AAICAN/HARA fundamentals fine, but one or two formal trigger phrases land past the 400-char threshold. Calling it out in the follow-ups for the W21 PLAN to consider a suite-wide DoD audit rather than per-skill chasing.
**Follow-ups:**
- Tomorrow (Thu): POLISH issue #5`aspice-assessment-builder.skill`. Confirm the 13-tab list in the description matches the actual builder schema, and trigger list mentions both v3.1 and v4.0.
- **Suite-wide pattern emerging:** two-for-two POLISH passes have flagged "formal trigger phrase outside first 400 chars" as the dominant finding. W21 PLAN should consider scripting a once-per-week DoD audit across all 76 builders that emits a shortlist of "descriptions where the canonical trigger phrase falls past char 400", instead of catching one per Tuesday.
- Human review: if the proposed `cs-concept-builder` description rewrite looks right, ship it as a manual commit and close #4. Same posture as #3 from yesterday.
- Issue #2 ("goodd") still needs Sunday TRIAGE — still too low-confidence to label.

# cs-concept-builder polish log
_Polish target for W20 (issue [#4](https://github.com/jherrodthomas/automotive-skills-suite/issues/4)). Reviewer: autonomous daily-standup task._
---
## 2026-05-13 — first POLISH pass
**Mode:** POLISH (Wednesday)
**File reviewed:** `skills/cs-concept-builder.skill` (ZIP archive; SKILL.md is 9,760 bytes / ~120 lines).
**DoD recap (from `docs/weekly/WEEK-2026-W20.md`):**
description reviewed for accuracy of the six security properties (AAICAN), and
trigger phrases include both formal terms (CSR derivation, CAL allocation) and
casual framings ("derive cyber controls from goals").
### What's good
- **AAICAN list is correct, complete, and in canonical order.** The six properties
appear as `(Authentication, Authorization, Integrity, Confidentiality, Availability,
Non-repudiation)` — all six letters of AAICAN, no duplicates, no omissions — and
all sit comfortably inside the first 400 chars of the description (the parenthetical
ends at char ~358). This is the DoD's "accuracy" check; passes cleanly.
- **Frontmatter is clean.** Both required keys present (`name`, `description`); no
drift fields; YAML parses without complaint. Description is 784 / 1024 chars with
~240 chars of headroom — comfortable runway for a polish-only re-write without
hitting the cap.
- **Pipeline framing is explicit and correct.** The description names both upstream
(`reading a CS Goals xlsx (produced by cs-goals-builder)`) and downstream (`produces
the CSI (Cybersecurity Implementation) hand-off`) artefacts, which is exactly the
cross-builder linkage that prevents users from invoking this skill before the TARA →
CS Goals step has run. Same pattern as `fsc-builder`'s HARA→FSC linkage.
- **Workflow doc is strong.** Step 2's enumeration of node types (gateways → ECUs →
memory → key stores → channels → debug-ifs) is the right order — network-facing
first, then progressively inward — and the closing sentinel question ("Is there
any node that, if compromised or disabled, could violate a cybersecurity goal but
isn't on this list?") is the kind of forcing-function that catches the 10% of nodes
analysts skip on first pass. Mentor-quality.
- **Common-pitfalls section earns its keep.** All five anti-patterns (skipped debug
interfaces, missing key-management CSRs, authn-vs-authz conflation, over-specifying
algorithms, missing non-repudiation for audit-critical actions) are real failure
modes a junior security engineer hits. None are filler.
- **Six-property derivation prose is concrete.** Each property comes with the
attacker-question framing ("Does the attacker impersonate or forge identity?" etc.).
That's what makes the property selection mechanical rather than judgment-only.
### What to fix
1. **DoD miss: "CAL allocation" is NOT in the description at all.**
The closest phrasing is `allocates CAL per architectural element` (char ~430),
which uses the verb form but not the noun phrase the DoD asks for. Severity: **low**
— the description still triggers reliably on the surrounding terms (CSR, six
security properties, Cybersecurity Concept), but per the strict W20 DoD this is the
one missing formal trigger.
2. **DoD miss: "CSR derivation" is past the 400-char threshold.**
The phrase first appears at char ~607 inside the "Use this skill whenever the user
mentions Cybersecurity Concept, CSR derivation, threat modeling requirements, or
deriving cybersecurity controls from goals" trigger list. Falls inside the
description (under the 1024-char cap), but outside the 400-char fast-trigger
window. Same shape as yesterday's `hara-builder` "safety goal" miss. Severity:
**low**.
3. **DoD partial: casual framings are thin.**
Only one casual variant is present (`deriving cybersecurity controls from goals`).
The DoD's example (`derive cyber controls from goals`) is essentially covered but
not verbatim, and there are no alternate-phrasing safety nets like the ones
`hara-builder` ships ("'I need the safety analysis for this ECU' or 'what is the
ASIL for X'"). Severity: **low**, optional.
4. **`CSI handoff` trigger only appears with the long form.**
The description writes `CSI (Cybersecurity Implementation) hand-off` (with paren
gloss and hyphen). A user typing "do the CSI handoff for this ECU" (no parens, no
hyphen) will still hit `CSI`, but a pattern-matching trigger pass on the literal
phrase `CSI handoff` would miss. Severity: **low**, optional.
### Suggested edits (NOT applied this run)
The autonomous-edit allowlist for the daily-standup task is narrow — typo / over-length
/ missing-required-frontmatter-field. None of the four findings match that list:
all are trigger-coverage edits, which are editorial rewrites, not surgical fixes.
**No edits committed today.** Captured here for the next human review pass.
A minimal proposed re-write of the description (still inside 1024 chars, AAICAN
preserved verbatim, all four DoD trigger phrases now in the first 400 chars):
```
description: Generate an audit-ready ISO/SAE 21434 Cybersecurity Concept workbook
with CSR derivation, CAL allocation, and CSI handoff by reading a CS Goals xlsx
(produced by cs-goals-builder) plus a system block-diagram JSON. Builds one
requirement-derivation tree per cybersecurity goal across six security
properties (Authentication, Authorization, Integrity, Confidentiality,
Availability, Non-repudiation), generates one CSR per goal-property-node
combination, allocates CAL per architectural element, proposes verification
methods per CAL, and produces the CSI (Cybersecurity Implementation) hand-off.
Use this skill whenever the user mentions Cybersecurity Concept, CSR derivation,
CAL allocation, threat-modeling requirements, or deriving cybersecurity controls
from goals — even casual framings like "derive cyber controls from goals" or
"what CSRs do I need for this ECU". Always use this skill instead of producing
a freeform Cybersecurity Concept in chat.
```
Quick stats on the proposed rewrite:
| Check | Result |
|---|---|
| Char count | ~970 (under the 1024 cap) |
| `CSR derivation` first appears | char ~85 (inside 400) |
| `CAL allocation` first appears | char ~99 (inside 400) |
| `CSI handoff` first appears | char ~117 (inside 400) |
| AAICAN list intact | yes, char ~300415 |
| Casual framings | two (`derive cyber controls from goals`, `what CSRs do I need for this ECU`) |
### Other observations (not fixes, just notes for future passes)
- The SKILL.md body is **prose with one well-bounded reference-table block** for the
10 output tabs — matches system style guidance. Don't refactor it.
- The "Files in this skill" tree at the bottom is accurate against `unzip -l
skills/cs-concept-builder.skill`: SKILL.md, scripts/{generate_cs_concept.py,
cs_goals_reader.py, recalc.py, office/{__init__.py, soffice.py}}, references/
{methodology.md, csr_templates.md}, examples/sample_cs_concept_input_esc.json. OK.
- The skill ships a non-trivial pair of Python scripts plus a soffice helper, same
as the safety-side builders. Out of scope for description-polish, but worth noting
that the CAL inheritance logic in `generate_cs_concept.py` is the one piece a
human reviewer should re-validate against ISO/SAE 21434 §15 next time the file
comes up — the SKILL.md asserts "If a node is allocated multiple CSRs from
different CSGs, its CAL is the maximum" and that should match what the script does.
- The CSI-handoff tab is described as "placeholder cybersecurity implementation
requirement rows" — that wording is fine, but a future docs pass should make
clear that the CSI is its own SDLC artefact (not produced by this skill), so the
rows here are intentionally skeleton-only. Not a polish item — a docs item.
### Severity roll-up
| Finding | Severity | Action |
|---|---|---|
| `CAL allocation` absent from description | low | proposed rewrite drafted; await human review |
| `CSR derivation` outside first 400 chars | low | folded into the same rewrite |
| Casual framings thin / not verbatim | low (optional) | included in the proposed rewrite |
| `CSI handoff` plain form absent | low (optional) | included in the proposed rewrite |
**No code edits committed in this run.** Issue #4 stays open with this log linked
from the journal entry. Next autonomous touch on this skill: probably W21 if it
stays in the LRT bucket, otherwise close on human approval of the rewrite. The
pattern (description hits AAICAN cleanly but misses one or two formal trigger
phrases in the first 400 chars) is now the second consecutive POLISH finding —
`hara-builder` (W20-T1, Tue) and `cs-concept-builder` (W20-T2, today) both shipped
this same shape. Worth flagging in the next PLAN as a suite-wide DoD audit
candidate rather than per-skill chasing.
