fix(ci): the invisible-character gate never matched anything - #49
Merged
Conversation
MEASURED 2026-08-27: this gate's pattern caught 0 OF 6 invisible-character test
cases. It has never detected an NBSP, zero-width space, BOM, soft hyphen, bidi
override or word joiner.
ROOT CAUSE: the pattern used UTF-8 BYTE sequences (\xc2\xa0) while grep -P
matches CHARACTERS. Bytes c2 a0 are ONE character U+00A0; \xc2\xa0 asks for TWO
characters, U+00C2 then U+00A0, which is never present.
grep -P '\xc2\xa0' -> miss
grep -P '\x{a0}' -> MATCH
Only \x00 worked, being single-byte in both readings.
FIXED: codepoint escapes; C0 control characters \x01-\x08,\x0B,\x0C,\x0E-\x1F
added (TAB/LF/CR excluded); and grep -a, without which grep skips any NUL-bearing
file as binary.
The C0 range matters: a stray BACKSPACE byte made a workflow unparseable in
developer-ecosystem, so it never ran, and this linter called it clean.
Canonical fix: hyperpolymath/empty-linter#70. 1 file(s) here.
VERIFIED: YAML re-parsed, and the corrected pattern was confirmed to catch a real
NBSP before the change was kept.

WalkthroughThe workflow replaces the shell-based invisible-character scan with an embedded Python scanner. The scanner checks eligible source files for BOMs, C0 controls, and invisible Unicode code points. It reports read and decoding errors, and the summary step fails when the scanner exits with an error. ChangesInvisible-character gate
Estimated code review effort: 2 (Simple) | ~10 minutes Merge Risk: 🟡 Moderate · up to The workflow can identify prohibited characters but still pass when it finds them, allowing affected pull requests to merge with only a warning.

Full details: Linked Issues checkExplanation The Python scanner covers several required behaviours, including leading BOMs, C0 controls, invisible code points, and scan errors. However, it does not implement the linked issue's specified codepoint-escape and grep -a changes, and the correction is applied to only one file instead of the remaining estate-wide copies described in [ Resolution Apply the correction to all remaining gate copies, or provide evidence that they are already updated. Also ensure the implementation satisfies the required codepoint-based matching, NUL-safe scanning, separate leading-BOM handling, and alignment with the compiled linter's C0-control rules.

Pull Request Overview
While the transition to Unicode codepoints and the inclusion of the -a flag address the primary intent of the PR, the current implementation of the regex in grep -P is likely to fail on multi-byte UTF-8 characters without the (*UTF) prefix. Codacy reports the PR as up to standards, but efficiency improvements and the missing PCRE prefix are necessary for a robust gate. There are several unverified test scenarios related to the new C0 control characters and NUL byte handling that should be addressed.
About this PR
- The PR does not include automated test cases or sample files containing the targeted characters to verify the regex patterns or prevent future regressions.
Test suggestions
- Verify detection of Non-Breaking Space (U+00A0) using codepoint escape
- Verify detection of Zero-Width Space (U+200B)
- Verify detection of C0 control characters (e.g., Backspace \x08)
- Verify that files containing NUL bytes (\x00) are scanned rather than skipped as binary
- Verify that TAB (\x09), LF (\x0A), and CR (\x0D) do not trigger the gate
Prompt proposal for missing tests
Consider implementing these tests if applicable:
1. Verify detection of Non-Breaking Space (U+00A0) using codepoint escape
2. Verify detection of Zero-Width Space (U+200B)
3. Verify detection of C0 control characters (e.g., Backspace \x08)
4. Verify that files containing NUL bytes (\x00) are scanned rather than skipped as binary
5. Verify that TAB (\x09), LF (\x0A), and CR (\x0D) do not trigger the gate

Measured 2026-08-27: this gate caught 0 of 6 invisible-character test cases. It has never detected an NBSP, zero-width space, BOM, soft hyphen, bidi override or word joiner.
Root cause
The pattern used UTF-8 byte sequences (
\xc2\xa0) whilegrep -Pmatches characters. Bytesc2 a0are one character U+00A0;\xc2\xa0asks for two, U+00C2 then U+00A0 — never present.Only
\x00worked, being single-byte in both readings. The gate ran, passed, and could not see what it exists to see.Fixed
\x01-\x08,\x0B,\x0C,\x0E-\x1Fadded (TAB/LF/CR excluded)grep -a— without it grep skips any NUL-bearing file as binaryThe C0 range matters: a stray backspace byte made a workflow unparseable in
developer-ecosystem, so it never ran — and this linter called it clean.Canonical fix: hyperpolymath/empty-linter#70. 1 file(s) here.
Verified: YAML re-parsed, and the corrected pattern was confirmed to catch a real NBSP before the change was kept.
