Pre-monetization security hardening and quality fixes#57
Conversation
Implements configurable failure mode for RecourseOS evaluations: - 'closed': Block action when evidence unavailable (safest) - 'review': Escalate to human review (default for OSS) - 'open': Allow despite missing evidence (dangerous) Changes: - Add FailureMode type and utilities in src/core/failure-mode.ts - Add failureMode option to LocalPolicy - Apply failure mode logic in terraform evaluator - Add retry with exponential backoff to AWS client (3 retries, jitter) - Add comprehensive tests for failure mode behavior Pro/Enterprise deployments should use 'closed' mode by default. OSS/self-hosted uses 'review' mode to escalate to human. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.5 <noreply@anthropic.com>
Changed useClassifier default from false to true. Unknown resource types now automatically run through the decision tree classifier instead of just using the weak default handler. This provides better safety coverage for resources without explicit handlers. The classifier can be explicitly disabled via options.classifier = false if needed.

Fail closed on invalid allowed-risk configuration
parseRiskLevels() currently returns ['allow', 'warn'] when all provided values are invalid (including an empty RECOURSE_ALLOWED_LEVELS), which silently broadens policy instead of rejecting misconfiguration; in both gateway/session-broker paths this can permit operations or credential issuance that operators expected to block. This should fail closed (or throw) when no valid levels are parsed.

Prevent oversized frame check from crashing MCP server
The new max-frame guard throws from readFrame() on large Content-Length, but runMcpServer calls readFrame() inside the input.on('data') loop without a surrounding try/catch, so a single oversized frame can terminate the process via uncaught exception (remote DoS). This path should reject/close the connection gracefully instead of throwing out of the stream handler.
