Summary

Renames the Iron Swarm plugin to Agent Hardener, matching the library rename that
has already merged in the agent-hardener repo (formerly iron-swarm) ahead of its
public PyPI release. Clean break, no aliases. Also folds in the gated Agent
Governance docs and corrects what they say about the code.

This branch contains the two commits from #1607. Its author's branch is an
ancestor of this one, so #1607 can be closed as superseded once this merges — its
commits keep their original authorship here.

Related Issue

Supersedes #1607.

Changes

Rename (clean break, no aliases)

  • Plugin nemo-iron-swarmnemo-agent-hardener; package nemo_iron_swarm_plugin
    nemo_agent_hardener_plugin; core module nemo_platform_plugin.iron_swarm
    .agent_hardener
  • CLI nemo iron-swarmnemo agent-hardener; service name drives /apis/agent-hardener
  • Entity types, job ids, permission namespaces, the secret name and the
    NEMO_AGENT_HARDENER_* config vars all move together
  • Studio: nav label "Agent Hardener", bundle at /plugin-ui/agent-hardener; OpenAPI and
    the orval client regenerated (no IronSwarm* schemas remain)
  • The config field iron_swarm_spec becomes spec, so the override var is
    NEMO_AGENT_HARDENER_SPEC rather than the stuttering ..._AGENT_HARDENER_SPEC
  • The bare word swarm is left alone where it names the live-events graph
    (web/src/components/swarm/), not the product

Docs

  • Adds the gated Agent Governance section (from docs: Add a gated Agent Governance section and split Secure Agents #1607) and corrects it against the code:
    the apply-mitigation example posted workflow_yaml, which the API has never accepted
    and which returns 422; init was documented with a --workflow flag that does not
    exist and as an interview it never runs; doctor was described as four checks when it
    runs five; --binary was called a requirement; nvidia-nat was listed as mandatory;
    --safety-model was said not to be preflighted when it is
  • States two limits the pages did not mention: applying records guardrails on the agent
    but does not yet activate them on redeploy, and policy_yaml is composed for review
    rather than applied

Code

  • --safety-model help said it was not preflighted; jobs/run.py probes it alongside
    the attack and analysis groups
  • The project inspector warned "No hosts named in the project's own files" having read
    only the Dockerfile — the run scans project source too, so the warning pointed at a
    problem that was not there

Type of Change

  • Code change (feature, bug fix, or refactor)
  • Code change with documentation updates
  • Documentation only
  • Contributor tooling or automation
  • CI, build, or test infrastructure

Quality Gates

  • Tests added or updated for changed behavior
  • Existing tests cover changed behavior — justification: a rename plus documentation and help-text corrections; the existing suites assert the renamed identifiers end to end
  • Tests not applicable — justification:
  • Documentation updated for user-visible behavior
  • Documentation not applicable — justification:

Verification

  • Pull request title follows the repository's Conventional Commit format
  • Every commit includes an appropriate Signed-off-by: trailer
  • uv run pre-commit run -a passes, or any blocked checks are identified below
  • Targeted tests pass, or tests are marked not applicable above
  • No secrets, API keys, or credentials are included

Targeted validation:

  • uv run pre-commit run -a — all hooks pass except four that fail identically on a clean
    origin/main worktree in this environment (Helm Docs, CI/Flox uv versions, Make/Flox
    Python versions, Node.js/pnpm versions). They require flox, which is not installed
    here; they are not affected by this branch.
  • uv run ruff check — All checks passed
  • uv run ruff format --check — 3656 files already formatted
  • uv run pytest plugins/nemo-agent-hardener/tests/unit — 330 passed
  • uv run pytest packages/nemo_platform_plugin/tests — 1349 passed
  • TOOLCHAIN=system make test-unit — 15384 passed, 95 skipped, 2 xfailed
  • uv run nemo agent-hardener --help and ... run --help render the renamed commands and
    the corrected --safety-model text
  • GET /apis/plugins returns bundleUrl: "/plugin-ui/agent-hardener/index.js" (non-null,
    which is what a spec.name/entry-point-key mismatch would break)
  • Full war-game end to end against a LangChain victim: 10 garak hits, guardrails generated
    and installed, 8/10 attacks blocked, 7/7 benign requests complied — the guardrail
    component demonstrably fires, which a PLUGIN_KIND mismatch would have silently broken
  • Studio verified in a browser: Governance → Agent Hardener loads, manifests list renders,
    zero console errors

Not run: the Studio Playwright e2e suite.

Preserve project-manifest rendering.

AgentHardenerManifest.agent is optional for project manifests. This change shows unknown instead of the project fileset and exposes an agent refresh action. Keep the source-type branch. Show project_fileset for project manifests. Show refresh only for an agent-backed manifest.

Descriptions still say "workflow YAML" while the field is guardrails_toml.

ApplyMitigationRequest now carries guardrails_toml, a Relay plugin-config TOML document. The schema description tells the client to pass "the hardened workflow YAML". ApplyMitigationResponse (Line 1877) and ComposeDefenseResponse (Line 1913) repeat the same stale wording. This spec is the published API contract, so a client author reads a format that no longer exists.

This file is generated. Update the docstrings on the ApplyMitigationRequest / ApplyMitigationResponse / ComposeDefenseResponse models in plugins/nemo-agent-hardener/src/nemo_agent_hardener_plugin/api/v2/schemas.py, then regenerate.

--yes is accepted and never read.

assume_yes does not appear in the init body. init resolves everything server-side and never prompts, which docs/agents/governance/run-a-war-game.mdx states directly ("It never prompts."). The flag therefore advertises behavior that does not exist. Remove it, or wire it to something.

Path Traversal (CWE-22): Improper Limitation of a Pathname to a Restricted Directory ('Path Traversal')

Reachability: External · Exploitability: Moderate

Constrain dockerfile to project_root before reading it.

project_root / dockerfile accepts .. segments. A path such as ../host-file can escape the uploaded bundle and expose derived values from that file. Absolute paths also bypass the bundle and cause the API to return a 400 after the out-of-bundle read.

Document the required INFERENCE_API_KEY secret before ## Running it.

The --secrets flag records the secret name; it does not create the platform secret. Without that secret, the victim can start but its first model call can fail. Add setup instructions for the platform secret.

In `@docs/agents/scan-trace-data.mdx`:
- Around line 31-32: Update the incident-response guidance near the credential
cleanup instructions to separate credential rotation or revocation from
investigation: instruct operators to preserve evidence and investigate prior
access before performing cleanup, while still rotating or revoking the leaked
credential promptly.

In `@plugins/nemo-agent-hardener/src/nemo_agent_hardener_plugin/api/v2/runs.py`:
- Around line 196-197: Update _reject_project_source to fail closed when
NemoEntityNotFoundError occurs: mark the project source as rejected or otherwise
stop apply_mitigation from continuing, rather than returning with an unknown
source type. Ensure a missing manifest cannot cause mitigation to be written to
an unrelated Agent sharing the manifest name.

In
`@plugins/nemo-agent-hardener/src/nemo_agent_hardener_plugin/model_preflight.py`:
- Line 54: Update probe_models to validate that base_url uses HTTPS before
constructing the Authorization header, rejecting non-HTTPS endpoints before any
Bearer token is attached. Preserve the existing empty-header behavior when no
api_key is provided.

In `@plugins/nemo-agent-hardener/tests/unit/test_init_cli.py`:
- Line 4: Add a collected test_ function in the init CLI test module that

- Line 49: Update the prompt parsing logic around the interview and review casts
in hitlTypes.ts (the symbols InterviewPrompt and the review prompt type) to
validate all required prompt, question, option, and suite-row fields before
returning them. Reject invalid interview data, including a numeric round without
a valid questions array, and invalid review data without a valid suite array so
InterviewPanel and BenignSuiteEditor receive only safe shapes; apply the same

Minor comments:
In `@docs/agents/add-guardrails.mdx`:
- Line 160: Ensure the documentation pages end with the required “## Next Steps”
section: add it to add-guardrails.mdx and troubleshooting.mdx, and rename the
existing “Related Topics” section in cli-reference.mdx while preserving its
valid workflow links.

In `@docs/agents/scan-trace-data.mdx`:
- Line 51: Update the documentation around the nemo files list
nemo-agent-telemetry command so it is labeled as telemetry inspection rather
than a scan, unless a supported CLI scan command is provided instead.
- Line 34: Reorder the scan-trace-data page so the ## Prerequisites section
appears before ## What the Scan Looks For, and rename the final ## Related
Topics heading to ## Next Steps. Preserve the existing section content and
navigation.

In `@plugins/nemo-agent-hardener/examples/langgraph-victim/README.md`:
- Line 22: Update the README section before “## Running it” to document that the
platform secret named INFERENCE_API_KEY must be created before running the
example; clarify that the --secrets flag only references the secret and does not
create it.
- Line 12: Update the fenced code block in the README to include the text
language tag, changing the opening fence to specify text while preserving the
existing file listing content.

In `@plugins/nemo-agent-hardener/openapi/openapi.yaml`:
- Around line 1853-1856: Update the docstrings for ApplyMitigationRequest,
ApplyMitigationResponse, and ComposeDefenseResponse in the schema source to
describe guardrails_toml as the Relay plugin-config TOML document instead of
hardened workflow YAML, then regenerate the OpenAPI specification.

In
`@plugins/nemo-agent-hardener/src/nemo_agent_hardener_plugin/agent_resolver.py`:
- Around line 582-583: Update resolve_agent_to_manifest so shipped_dockerfile
and download_agent_bundle share one temporary directory for the
{workspace}/{name}-ethos fileset instead of downloading it twice. Keep that
directory alive through both Dockerfile inspection and bundle staging, then
clean it up after both operations complete.

In `@plugins/nemo-agent-hardener/src/nemo_agent_hardener_plugin/cli/lifecycle.py`:
- Around line 234-236: Remove the unused assume_yes option from the init
command, including its --yes/-y CLI aliases, since init never prompts or reads
this value. Keep the remaining init options and server-side behavior unchanged.

In `@plugins/nemo-agent-hardener/src/nemo_agent_hardener_plugin/model_config.py`:
- Line 55: Update the API schema description associated with WarGameModels so it
lists the model groups as attack, analysis, and safety instead of attack,
analysis, and agent, then regenerate the OpenAPI client.

In
`@plugins/nemo-agent-hardener/src/nemo_agent_hardener_plugin/model_preflight.py`:
- Line 73: Update the response parsing around resp.json() so it verifies the
decoded JSON is a dictionary before accessing data. For non-object responses
such as arrays, use the existing empty-list fallback and preserve the
best-effort preflight behavior.

In
`@plugins/nemo-agent-hardener/src/nemo_agent_hardener_plugin/project_resolver.py`:
- Around line 221-228: Validate the user-supplied dockerfile path in the project
resolver before constructing or reading chosen, rejecting absolute paths and any
path whose resolved location is outside project_root. Preserve the existing
unresolved response for invalid or missing files, and ensure only files

In `@plugins/nemo-agent-hardener/web/pnpm-workspace.yaml`:
- Line 5: Update the allowBuilds entry for `@nvidia/foundations-react-core` in the
pnpm workspace configuration to use a Boolean value, true or false, instead of
the placeholder string, while preserving the repository’s intended build-script
policy.

In `@plugins/nemo-agent-hardener/web/src/components/TargetPanel.tsx`:
- Line 55: Update the rendering logic around the onRefresh conditional to retain
the source-type branch: render project_fileset for project manifests, and render
unknown with the refresh action only for agent-backed manifests. Keep refresh
unavailable for project manifests.

In `@plugins/nemo-agent-hardener/web/src/formValues.ts`:
- Line 19: Update the environment-entry parsing logic to trim the key before
validating it, and return null when the trimmed key is empty; otherwise return
the trimmed key and value tuple. Preserve the existing delimiter handling and
value trimming.

including the guarded VirtualModel and agent llms guidance.

In `@plugins/nemo-agent-hardener/examples/langgraph-victim/README.md`:
- Line 54: Add a “Next Steps” section to the README with links to the Agent
Hardener governance and troubleshooting documentation, following the
repository’s Markdown conventions without changing other content.

In `@plugins/nemo-agent-hardener/examples/other-victim/README.md`:
- Around line 22-35: Add a prerequisites section before “## Running it” in both
example README files, listing the NeMo CLI, Docker, OpenShell, a running
platform with the jobs controller, and an inference credential/provider, and
link to the plugin README’s setup instructions. Keep the existing running
commands unchanged.

In `@plugins/nemo-agent-hardener/examples/README.md`:
- Around line 6-40: Restructure the examples overview, Hermes, and LangChain
documentation pages to follow Diátaxis: add Prerequisites at the beginning and
Next Steps links at the end. Keep the overview explanatory, retain Hermes and
LangChain as how-to guides, and add Python SDK and CLI tabs for supported
operations using the agent_hardener manifests.create, synth_benign, and run
APIs. Move Relay and manifest-derivation rationale into linked explanation
documentation.

In
`@plugins/nemo-agent-hardener/src/nemo_agent_hardener_plugin/api/v2/manifests.py`:
- Around line 83-84: Remove the unused _run_agent_hardener, _SubprocessError,
and _SubprocessTimeout symbols from manifests.py, along with any imports and
constants that become unused; leave the manifest functionality and other
referenced code unchanged.

In `@plugins/nemo-agent-hardener/web/src/components/useSanityCheck.ts`:
- Line 76: In the request construction within useSanityCheck, remove the
unnecessary as never cast and pass the spec object directly. Rely on the
structural compatibility between SanityCheckSpec and the generated WarGameSpec
so compile-time validation remains enabled.

In
`@plugins/nemo-agent-hardener/web/src/routes/NewAgentHardenerManifestRoute/index.tsx`:
- Line 46: Update the React imports in the NewAgentHardenerManifestRoute module
to make FC a type-only import, while keeping useEffect, useMemo, and useState as
runtime imports.

In `@web/packages/studio/e2e-tests/agent-hardener.test.ts`:
- Line 47: Update the plugin response handling in the test to use the maintained
PluginManifest type and validate the parsed response with isValidPluginManifest
before calling find. Remove the duplicated inline response shape and preserve
the existing plugin lookup behavior only for validated manifests.

byo-ledger is never provisioned, and the file header claims it is.

The test navigates straight to byo-ledger. Nothing in the suite creates it, so this fails on a clean platform. Lines 8-9 state that the BYO test creates and removes what it created, which the test body does not do.

Create the manifest in the test and delete it in cleanup, or skip when it is absent and correct the header.

Update the docstrings that still describe workflow YAML.

Reject dockerfile paths outside project_root before reading them.

read_text() reads caller-selected paths outside the bundle before relative_to() raises ValueError. The endpoint converts this to HTTP 400, so this is not an unhandled 500 or a file-disclosure path. Contain the path first to avoid unnecessary and potentially unbounded server-side reads.

### Why the four extra flags

`init` derives what the Dockerfile *states* and warns about the rest rather than guessing. The
model host and API key live in `agent.py`, and this image installs to the system Python rather than
a venv — so four things cannot be derived, and each fails differently if omitted: the credential
name (victim starts, then fails its first model call), the egress host (default-deny sandbox drops
model traffic mid-run), the absolute start command (OpenShell replaces `PATH`, so bare `python`
never resolves), and the interpreter glob (the egress policy would match no process, granting
nothing).

If your own project declares these in the Dockerfile, `init` picks them up and you pass nothing.

221-228: 🔒 Security & Privacy | 🟡 Minor | ⚡ Quick win

Reject dockerfile paths outside project_root before reading them.

read_text() reads caller-selected paths outside the bundle before relative_to() raises ValueError. The endpoint converts this to HTTP 400, so this is not an unhandled 500 or a file-disclosure path. Contain the path first to avoid unnecessary and potentially unbounded server-side reads.

@yamini — all five review items are implemented and pushed, each with focused tests. Two of my initial fixes had defects that I caught on a second pass and corrected, so I've called those out explicitly below rather than bury them.

1. Path traversal — project_resolver.py
(project_root / dockerfile) now has its containment verified against a resolved project_root, so both an absolute path and ../ traversal are rejected before any read_text(). Tests cover both.

⚠️ My first attempt at this was buggy: I left chosen resolved while project_root stayed unresolved, which broke every explicit --dockerfile on macOS (temp dirs live under /var → symlink → /private/var, so the later relative_to() raised and surfaced as a 400 "could not read the project bundle"). Now only the containment check resolves, and it resolves both sides. Added a symlinked-project-root regression test, since tmp_path is already resolved and never caught it.

2. Unbounded Python execution — examples/other-victim/agent.py
_python_executor now runs the snippet in a child process with a 30s deadline instead of exec() in-process, and both executors cap captured output at 20k chars. Also caught the bash timeout, which was escaping into _execute_managed's broad except and coming back as "tool call refused" — in a war-game that reads as a guardrail blocking the attack rather than a slow command.

3. Apply enabled during load — HardenPanel.tsx
Apply now stays disabled until the manifest query has actually succeeded and confirmed a non-project source.

⚠️ My first version over-corrected: gating purely on isSuccess disabled Apply permanently for runs launched from run --config, because with no manifestId the query is enabled: false and never succeeds. It now mirrors the API's own rule (_reject_project_source returns early when a run carries no manifest_id).

4. Removal during upload — NewAgentHardenerManifestRoute
onRemoveFile now invalidates the in-flight selection so a late upload/inspect callback can't restore what the user just cleared. The generation counter is extracted into a small SelectionGuard class so the removal-during-upload case is directly unit tested.

5. Authorization over plaintext — model_preflight.py
The Authorization header is withheld unless the endpoint is https:// or loopback. The probe still runs, so an open http:// endpoint validates normally.

One refinement on this one: silently withholding the header made an authenticated http:// endpoint answer 401, which validate_choice reports as reason="auth" — sending the user to rotate a perfectly good key, the same misdiagnosis the existing provider-error handling guards against. The 401 detail now names the http:// URL as the cause.


Verification: 345 plugin unit tests + 32 web tests pass; ruff/eslint clean. I also ran the Studio e2e suite against a local platform — 8/8 pass.

Separate finding, not in this PR's scope: the a BYO manifest renders without an agent reference e2e test is vacuous. It navigates to byo-ledger, which nothing provisions; I ran its exact assertions against definitely-not-a-real-manifest-zzz999 and they also pass, because the detail route renders a "Run war-game" button for a missing manifest and the "no undefined text" assertion trivially holds on an empty page. So it currently asserts nothing about BYO rendering. Happy to fix it here or file it separately — your call.

Iron Swarm's contract is now a directory with a runnable agent in it — a config
plus the Dockerfile that serves it — not a NAT project it has to interpret. All
nemo-agents-spec-v1 knowledge stays on this side of the line, which is also the
only place it can live: reading the spec means importing nemo-agents-plugin, and
that pins six nvidia-nat-* distributions iron-swarm exists to be free of.

The image is not hand-rolled. render_fabric_dockerfile(sandbox_runtime='openshell')
is the platform's own packaging pipeline, and the openshell sandbox profile
already bakes in exactly what Iron Swarm's sandbox needs — a non-root 'sandbox'
user, iproute2, nftables — so the agent under test is packaged the way a deployed
one is, rather than by a second recipe that could drift.

Reverses one NAT-era behaviour deliberately: the telemetry strip is gone. NAT
configs carried a nemo_files exporter the sandboxed victim could not resolve, so
it was dropped. A Relay victim's telemetry is what Iron Swarm reads to see which
tools an attack reached — stripping it would make every run report an
uninstrumented victim.

inject_gateway_url now delegates to the platform's own implementation instead of
a local copy that had started to drift: it still rewrote NAT llms entries, which
a nemo-agents-spec-v1 agent does not have.

Deletes the project-upload path end to end: the inspect endpoint and its
response model, the launch-mode validation, the project manifest builder, the
CLI's --project-dir/--workflow/--dockerfile/--binary flags, and the SDK's
inspect(). It existed to carry a NAT project, and Iron Swarm no longer runs one.

source_type and launch_mode go with it. With one source and one launch mode there
is nothing left to discriminate, and a field that can only hold one value invites
code that pretends otherwise.

The capability is relocated, not lost: an agent with custom tool code reaches the
platform as an MCP server, which keeps it registrable and therefore war-gameable.
Agents whose orchestration cannot be expressed as config are war-gamed from the
iron-swarm CLI directly, which takes any Relay-connected agent.

The harden flow now carries a plugins.toml end to end: compose, sanity-check
and apply. Applying re-homes the guardrail onto the agent entity as a Relay
component instead of overwriting a NAT workflow.

Fixes the validate-only seeding, which still wrote the composed defense to
agent.project_dir/agent.workflow -- fields that no longer exist, so a sanity
check would have silently measured the unhardened victim.

Follows the library rename ahead of its public PyPI release. The plugin becomes
nemo-agent-hardener, the CLI `nemo agent-hardener`, the service and Studio bundle
agent-hardener, and the SDK attribute client.agent_hardener.

Clean break, no aliases: entity types, job ids, permission namespaces, the secret
name and the NEMO_AGENT_HARDENER_* config vars all move together, as do the paths
into the library's renamed .agent-hardener run tree. The bare word swarm stays
where it names the live-events graph rather than the product.

Secure Agents covered two unrelated jobs on one page: wiring guardrails onto
an agent's model path, and scanning trace data for PII and leaked credentials.
They sit at opposite ends of the lifecycle and share nothing but a fileset.

Split it into two published pages named for the job each does:

- Add Guardrails to an Agent (docs/agents/add-guardrails.mdx)
- Scan Trace Data (docs/agents/scan-trace-data.mdx)

Re-target the 8 inbound links to whichever half each one wanted, and redirect
/documentation/agents/secure-agents to the guardrails page.

Add Agent Governance as a gated subsection under Agents, covering the Iron
Swarm attack/defend/validate cycle: overview, run a war-game (registered
agents and unregistered projects), review and apply mitigations, CLI
reference, and troubleshooting. Registered in gated-nav.yml, so Fern does not
build or index it and no published page links into it.

Also normalize the lowercase "Next steps" heading in agents/optimization.mdx.

make docs-check and make docs-broken-links pass; the 7 remaining broken links
(opensandbox, studio/plugins) predate this change.

Signed-off-by: Yamini <ykagal@gmail.com>
Fern derives slugs from page titles, so the gated pages resolved at
/agents/agent-governance/iron-swarm-cli-reference while every cross-link
between them used /agents/governance/cli-reference. Nothing caught this:
gated pages are not built, so links among them are never validated. Pin the
section and page slugs so the URLs match what the pages link to.

Move Add Guardrails up beside the other single pages. It sat between two
collapsible sections, inherited from where Secure Agents was, which left it
stranded in the sidebar. Order now follows the lifecycle: deploy, guardrail,
observe, scan, then the two sections. Shorten the sidebar label to match the
two-word rhythm of its siblings; the page title and URL are unchanged.

Renames the gated governance docs to Agent Hardener, and fixes what they say.
Most of the corrections predate the rename: the apply-mitigation example posted
workflow_yaml, which the API has never accepted and which returns 422; init was
documented with a --workflow flag that does not exist and as an interview it
never runs; doctor was described as four checks when it runs five; --binary was
called a requirement; nvidia-nat was listed as mandatory; and --safety-model was
said not to be preflighted when it is.

Also states two limits the pages did not mention: applying records guardrails on
the agent but does not yet activate them on a redeploy, and policy_yaml is
composed for review rather than applied.

--safety-model's help said it was not preflighted; jobs/run.py probes it with
the attack and analysis groups. The project inspector warned 'No hosts named in
the project's own files' when it had only read the Dockerfile — the run scans
the project source too, so the warning sent readers looking for a problem that
was not there.
