Developed a secure install attestation verification feature for the tw93/Mole repository, focusing on strengthening the installation trust chain and mitigating supply-chain risks. The solution enhanced the install.sh script to verify release provenance using the GitHub CLI, anchoring the SHA256SUMS file to GitHub Actions build attestations to prevent tampering. A fallback mechanism maintained compatibility by reverting to SHA256-only verification when the GitHub CLI was unavailable. Additionally, an environment variable allowed deployments to enforce strict attestation requirements. This work leveraged DevOps practices, security principles, and shell scripting expertise to reinforce end-to-end integrity from release creation through installation.
May 2026: Delivered Secure Install Attestation Verification for tw93/Mole, strengthening the installation trust chain and reducing supply-chain risk. The install flow now verifies the release attestation via GitHub CLI when available, anchoring the SHA256SUMS file to the GitHub Actions build provenance to prevent tampering. A fallback path preserves the existing behavior without GH CLI, and MOLE_REQUIRE_ATTESTATION=1 enforces a hard failure when attestation is unavailable. The change is implemented in install.sh and ties the binary verification to an attested manifest, reinforcing end-to-end integrity from release to install.
