In-sample; rivals not run.
+- `.banlist.txt` patterns for GitLab, Slack app, SendGrid, Twilio, npm, PyPI, Hugging Face, Shopify and DigitalOcean tokens and credentialed connection URLs.
+- `destructive_guard.py` now blocks `${IFS}` and brace-expanded commands, variable-built command words with `-rf`/`--hard`, `ssh` remote commands, `docker` prune/rm -f, `kill -9 -1`, shutdown/reboot, `shred`, `truncate -s 0`, `rsync --delete`, SQL DROP/TRUNCATE through a client, fork bombs, `git push --force-with-lease` to main/master, `git worktree remove --force`, string-built `rm -rf` in interpreter one-liners and secret variables in a URL query. Tests: `scripts/test_security_gates_corpus.py`.

+# Security gates corpus, 2026-10-24
+
+Frozen synthetic corpora for the H5 (secret gate) and H8 (destructive-command guard) rows of docs/perun-vs-rivals.md. Drafted on 2026-10-24 before any Perun check was run on them; the before-fix scores come from that draft. The hashes below were pinned after the fixes, and every number is in-sample. All values are invented; secret lines carry `@@` markers (deleted by the scorer) so they never trip the repo privacy gate.
+
+| File | Contents |
+|---|---|
+| secret-leaks.txt | 31 fake leaks in common provider formats, no PII |
+| secret-decoys.txt | 34 look-alikes that must not be flagged (includes the public AWS documentation example key) |
+| destructive-dangerous.txt | 46 dangerous command strings, including interpreter, IFS, brace, quote-split and wrapper tricks |
+| destructive-benign.txt | 45 benign command strings |
+
+Run: `python3 docs/bench/security-gates-1024/score.py` (offline, deterministic, nothing executed). It fails on hash drift against the SHA256 lines below. Rival tools (gitleaks and others) were not run: not installed, owner gate.
+
+Caveat: Perun fixes in the same change post-date this corpus, so the after-numbers are in-sample. The guard is a best-effort string check, not a security boundary.
+
+## SHA256

+## Results (2026-10-24, `score.py`)
+
+| Check | Before fixes | After fixes |
+|---|---|---|
+| Secret gate recall | 20/31 | 30/31 |
+| Secret gate false positives | 1/34 (AWS documentation example key) | 1/34 (same) |
+| Destructive guard blocked | 29/46 | 46/46 |
+| Destructive guard false positives | 0/45 | 0/45 |
+
+Remaining secret miss: `gh_ghs` is a 35-character `ghs_` fixture (the real format is 36), kept frozen and counted as a miss. The AWS documentation key stays a false positive because an ERE cannot exclude the `EXAMPLE` suffix. Held-out variants and decoys for each fix are in `scripts/test_security_gates_corpus.py`. The older 32-string guard corpus in `scripts/test-destructive-guard.sh` went from 30/32 to 31/32 (a secret piped to `curl -d @-` is still allowed).
+
+Freeze note: the before-fix scores were taken on the first draft. Afterward two secret lines (`aws_secret`, `generic_json`) gained `@@` markers so the files pass the repo privacy gate; the scorer strips markers, so the scored text is unchanged. `SHA256-frozen.txt` and `ledger.jsonl` were written after the fixes (see the ledger note); they pin the corpora from here on.
