Refs #3671.

Raises the js-yaml npm overrides pin from 4.2.0 to 4.3.2 in the four CLI packages, regenerates their lockfiles, and adds the dependency-audit document the CI gate requires.

One correction to the issue's framing

The issue offers "upgrade ... or remove YAML parsing from the OpenCode dependency path". Removing the override is not a safe option here, and it is worth recording why:

js-yaml is not a direct dependency of any of the four packages. It arrives transitively through @microsoft/agent-governance-sdk, and the overrides field is what holds it at 4.2.0 — it was added in the 2026-06-16 audit to clear GHSA-h67p-54hq-rp68. I checked what happens without it:

$ # overrides removed from agent-governance-opencode/package.json
$ npm install --package-lock-only
resolved -> node_modules/@microsoft/agent-governance-sdk/node_modules/js-yaml 4.1.1

4.1.1 is affected by both advisories in this issue and by the earlier one the override was added to fix. So the pin is doing real work and needs raising, not deleting.

I used 4.3.2 rather than the 4.3.1 floor named in the issue: 4.3.1 is the lowest unaffected release, 4.3.2 is the current patch on that line, and the packages pin exactly.

Verified

npm audit --package-lock-only, before on main and after on this branch:

Package Before After
agent-governance-antigravity-cli 2 high 0
agent-governance-claude-code 2 high 0
agent-governance-copilot-cli 2 high 0
agent-governance-opencode 2 high 0

bash scripts/ci/vendored-patch-audit.sh passes with the new audit doc. The lockfile diffs contain nothing but the js-yaml entry (its version, integrity, resolved URL, and the funding metadata the newer release ships).

Not covered

The issue's third acceptance criterion — a clean downstream installation — is not fixed by this PR and cannot be. overrides applies to a package's own tree, not to consumers of the published package, whose resolution follows the SDK's constraint. The published SDK versions these depend on (4.0.0, and 3.7.0 for opencode) resolve to 4.1.1. agent-governance-typescript already declares js-yaml 5.2.3 on main, so a release cut from current main carries a patched constraint of its own; until then downstream trees need their own override. I wrote this up in the audit doc rather than leaving it implicit.

The fourth criterion — parser resource-bound tests where AGT consumes untrusted YAML — is a separate piece of work; happy to open an issue for it if you'd like it tracked.

The four CLI packages pin js-yaml to 4.2.0 with an npm `overrides` field,
added in the 2026-06-16 audit to clear GHSA-h67p-54hq-rp68. Two later
advisories affect that release: GHSA-52cp-r559-cp3m / CVE-2026-59869
(<4.3.0) and GHSA-5p4m-2wfm-xmqj (<4.3.1). Raise the override to 4.3.2,
the current patch on the 4.x line.

Raising the pin is the fix rather than dropping it: js-yaml is transitive
through @microsoft/agent-governance-sdk, and removing the override
resolves down to the SDK's own 4.1.1, which is affected by both of these
and by the earlier advisory as well.

`npm audit --package-lock-only` goes from 2 high severity to 0 in each of
the four packages.
