Ai Provenance — a PullGuard finding type. Findings of this type appear in the PR comment, Step Summary, SARIF (GitHub Security tab / IDE viewers), and the HTML report, each with severity, location, and the remediation guidance below.

How to fix

Retain the disclosure and apply your AI-governance review policy low effort

// This file carries an explicit AI-authorship marker. It is EVIDENCE
// for transparency / EU AI Act Art. 50, not a defect.
//   1. Keep the marker — it is your audit trail of AI involvement.
//   2. Confirm the AI-assisted code had human security review.
//   3. Scrutinise its security-sensitive paths more closely
//      (AI-assisted code has higher defect density).

Triage

Suppress a confirmed non-issue with a committed .pullguardignore entry (pullguard ignore locally, or comment /pullguard ignore <fingerprint> <reason> on the PR — the fingerprint is printed in the PR comment’s Triage section). Entries support expiresAt for time-boxed snoozes.

Security findings at major or critical severity — and any critical finding — always surface: .pullguardignore cannot hide them. The reviewed paths that keep them visible are acknowledged (reviewed, stays in reports) and, for a confirmed false positive, a reasoned false_positive entry — visible and audited, excluded only from the merge block.
