docs(cli): describe audit-log durability checks, bump shared library

[cristim]

Why

Part 3 of the port of cloud-commitments-cli#1889 ("feat(mcp): JSONL purchase audit log for the MCP server") to the split repos.

That PR's only cmd//docs/cli/ changes are doc/comment text updates describing the stronger audit-log durability checks now performed by common.CheckAuditLogWritable / common.WriteAuditRecord (see LeanerCloud/cloud-commitments-go#130, merging first). Nothing in cmd/ changed behaviorally or needed sharing with MCP -- the CLI already called the shared library function before and after; only what that function guarantees changed.

What changed

• cmd/helpers.go: doc comment on the CheckAuditLogWritable wrapper now describes the parent-directory durability checks the underlying common.CheckAuditLogWritable performs, not just "is it writable".
• cmd/multi_service.go: startup fatal log message updated to match (Cannot prepare durable audit log instead of Cannot write audit log).
• docs/cli/purchase-safety.md: two passages describing the audit-log preflight check updated to describe the readable/writable/durable parent-directory checks (ancestor search permission, immediate-parent read permission, directory fsync support) instead of the old "is the directory writable" description.
• go.mod: github.com/LeanerCloud/cloud-commitments-go/pkg bumped to feat(common): durable JSONL audit log append with directory sync and interprocess locking cloud-commitments-go#130's merged commit, so the behavior these docs describe is actually what cudly links against.

No CLI code behavior changed; this is a documentation-accuracy follow-up plus the dependency bump that makes the documentation true.

Origin

Ported from cloud-commitments-cli#1889's cmd/helpers.go, cmd/multi_service.go, and docs/cli/purchase-safety.md hunks (branch feat/mcp-audit-log, commit range b14df7e6..2b031084, author cristim). That PR's go.mod hunk (golang.org/x/sys indirect->direct) was a monorepo-wide artifact of a shared root go.mod and does not apply here: this repo's own go mod tidy -diff confirms golang.org/x/sys is not needed by anything in this module, so it was dropped rather than carried over.

Verification

Under GOTOOLCHAIN=go1.26.6, GOWORK=off:

• go build -o cudly ./cmd -- clean.
• go vet ./cmd/... -- clean.
• go test -race -short ./cmd/... -- all tests pass.
• gofmt -l . -- clean.
• go mod tidy -diff -- empty.
• golangci-lint (this repo's CI-pinned version) -- 0 issues.

Related: LeanerCloud/cloud-commitments-go#130 (must merge first), LeanerCloud/cloud-commitments-mcp (audit log itself; see LeanerCloud/cloud-commitments-mcp#7, which mcp#26 closes).

Summary by CodeRabbit

• Safety Checks

  • Before making cloud API calls, the app checks that the audit log is readable, writable, and durable, and that its immediate parent directories can be opened and synced.
  • Higher-level parent directories must allow traversal. Startup stops with an error if the log or required directories fail these checks.

• Documentation

  • Updated the audit-log guidance and production checklist to describe the readiness checks and requirements.

📝 Walkthrough

Walkthrough

The change updates descriptions of audit-log preflight checks, the startup failure message, and purchase-safety documentation. It also updates the required versions of the cloud-commitments-go package and its AWS, Azure, and GCP provider modules.

Changes

Audit-log preflight

Layer / File(s)	Summary
Preflight requirements and startup handling cmd/helpers.go, cmd/multi_service.go, docs/cli/purchase-safety.md	The comment and documentation describe read, append, and durability requirements for the audit log and its immediate parent directories. The startup error message now refers to preparing a durable audit log. The check still runs before cloud API calls and terminates startup on failure. The production checklist requires a readable, writable, durable audit-log location.

Module version update

Layer / File(s)	Summary
Cloud commitments module versions go.mod	The pinned pseudo-version changes for cloud-commitments-go/pkg and its AWS, Azure, and GCP provider modules.

Priority: ⬇️ Low

Estimated code review effort: 2 (Simple) | ~8 minutes

Change: Other

Merge Risk: 🟡 Moderate · up to 38e42

CSV purchases can proceed without the documented audit-log preflight. Resolve that gap or explicitly accept it before merging.

Full details: Linked Issues check

Explanation

Issue #7 requires MCP audit-log behavior: default XDG path, configuration and disablement, path resolution, run ID, credential scope, preview and outcome records, stderr-only write warnings that preserve the purchase result, and startup validation during server construction. The reviewed changes update CLI comments, CLI fatal text, CLI documentation, and module versions. They do not implement or test the MCP behavior. The summary provides no evidence that the existing MCP server already satisfies these requirements.

Full details: Out of Scope Changes check

Explanation

The changed source and documentation are CLI-specific: cmd/helpers.go, cmd/multi_service.go, and docs/cli/purchase-safety.md. The module bump targets cloud-commitments-go and is described as making CLI documentation match shared-library behavior. Issue #7 targets MCP server audit logging. The summary establishes no direct MCP implementation or test connection for these CLI changes.

Apply the preflight to CSV purchases.

When cfg.CSVInput is set, runToolMultiService returns through runCSVPathOrFatal before reaching this check. The CSV path can then proceed to cloud calls and purchases without calling CheckAuditLogWritable, despite the all-path claim in docs/cli/purchase-safety.md Line 71. Move the check before the CSV dispatch or run it in runToolFromCSV. The CLI entry point dispatches to runToolMultiService. (raw.githubusercontent.com)

Independent adversarial review (Opus 5.5) at 38e4215: MERGE. Docs and comments plus a go library bump; no cmd/ behavior change beyond the fatal log text. Pin verified: go pkg and providers at fe940a89, an ancestor of go main, and the pseudo-version timestamp matches the commit. Doc wording checked against pkg/common/audit.go@fe940a8 (O_APPEND|O_CREATE|O_RDWR, regular files only, parent-directory bind plus lock/sync probe). Local: build, vet, go test -race -short ./cmd/... 873 pass, tidy/verify clean, golangci-lint v2.10.1 clean; CI green. The PR body's mcp#7 reference no longer uses a closing keyword, so mcp#7 closes with mcp#26 when the feature ships.
