Estimated code review effort: 2 (Simple) | ~10 minutes Merge Risk: 🟠 High · up to The parser can still misclassify real Coq trust markers after inline comments or when comment delimiters appear inside strings, allowing proof-debt markers to bypass the check.

Pull Request Overview
The PR successfully introduces a stateful parser for Coq nested comments, but contains logic flaws that could lead to false negatives (undetected trust markers), which is a security risk for a governance tool. While Codacy reports the PR is up to standards, the implementation of strip_coq_noncode is not string-aware; it will incorrectly treat a (* sequence inside a string literal as the start of a comment block.
Furthermore, there is an implementation gap: valid trust markers appearing on the same line as a leading comment (e.g., (* Note *) Admitted.) are currently ignored due to a legacy prefix-check in the emit_marker function. A corresponding test scenario for this case is also missing.
About this PR
- The lack of string-awareness in the parser creates a systemic risk of false negatives. If a developer includes an opening comment delimiter within a string literal, the scanner may skip subsequent production code, potentially missing critical markers like 'Admitted' or 'Axiom'.
Test suggestions
- Coq trust markers (Admitted, Axiom) inside nested multiline comments are ignored
- A valid Coq trust marker appearing after a comment block is correctly detected
- Scanner diagnostic output correctly references the original line number and source text
- Coq marker appearing on the same line as a leading comment (e.g. '(* comment *) Admitted.')
Prompt proposal for missing tests
Consider implementing these tests if applicable:
1. Coq marker appearing on the same line as a leading comment (e.g. '(* comment *) Admitted.')

In `@scripts/check-trusted-base.sh`:
- Around line 104-110: Update strip_coq_noncode to track double-quoted string
state across lines and ignore (* and *) delimiters while inside strings; add
fixtures covering both quoted delimiters. Update emit_marker to run
is_comment_line against the stripped line so real markers following inline block
comments are still matched, and add coverage for that case.
