chore: fill or remove RSR template placeholders - #9
Conversation
openssf-compliance.yml fails when any of the thirteen files it checks
still contains a {{PLACEHOLDER}} token. This clears them.
Three kinds of change, no invention:
The "TEMPLATE INSTRUCTIONS (delete this block before publishing)" comment
is deleted. The template says to delete it, and it is where every legend
line lives -- so a large share of the reported tokens were the file
documenting its own placeholders, not real unfilled fields.
Tokens derivable from the repository are filled: owner and repo from the
git remote, project name, year, forge, main branch, contact email.
PGP and website lines are removed rather than filled, because nothing
true could go in them. https://github.com/<user>.gpg returns HTTP 200 for
every account; with no key uploaded the body is a stub reading "This user
hasnt uploaded any GPG keys". No key is published for either account
here, and commit signing in this estate is SSH, which is unrelated. Only
one repository in the estate has a domain, so {{WEBSITE}} likewise has no
correct value. The template sanctions this: "Optional: Remove sections
that dont apply (e.g. PGP if you dont use it)." A security policy telling
a researcher to encrypt to a key that does not exist is worse than one
that does not mention encryption.

A previous `just init` copied already-filled templates out of
squisher-corpus, so the identity landed in the BODY of the security
policy, not only in the legend block. burble/SECURITY.md directed
vulnerability reports to hyperpolymath/squisher-corpus, and 50 other
repositories did the same.
This is not cosmetic. A researcher who follows the policy files their
report against a repository that has nothing to do with the code they
were looking at, and the maintainer of the project actually affected
never sees it.
Repointed at this repository, derived from its own git remote. Also
rewords the prose that says "replace {{PLACEHOLDER}} tokens"; that is
documentation of the mechanism rather than an unfilled field, but the
OpenSSF gate greps for the token and cannot tell the difference -- the
same trap the Slavia Mustfile already records for its own probe.

Summary
Code Review ✅ Approved 4 resolved / 4 findingsFills RSR template placeholders and corrects misrouted advisory URLs across security policies, but leaves CONTRIBUTING.md truncated with broken markdown, CODE_OF_CONDUCT.md with unremoved template instructions and wrong project names, and SECURITY.md advertising a nonexistent PGP key. ✅ 4 resolved✅ Quality: CONTRIBUTING.md is a truncated fragment with broken markdown
✅ Bug: CODE_OF_CONDUCT.md names wrong project/repo (squisher-corpus)
✅ Bug: SECURITY.md still advertises a nonexistent PGP key
✅ Bug: CODE_OF_CONDUCT.md still contains the TEMPLATE INSTRUCTIONS block
