+
+   TERMS AND CONDITIONS FOR USE, REPRODUCTION, AND DISTRIBUTION
+
+   1. Definitions.
+
+      "License" shall mean the terms and conditions for use, reproduction,
+      and distribution as defined by Sections 1 through 9 of this document.
+
+      "Licensor" shall mean the copyright owner or entity authorized by
+      the copyright owner that is granting the License.
+
+      "Legal Entity" shall mean the union of the acting entity and all
+      other entities that control, are controlled by, or are under common
+      control with that entity. For the purposes of this definition,
+      "control" means (i) the power, direct or indirect, to cause the
+      direction or management of such entity, whether by contract or
+      otherwise, or (ii) ownership of fifty percent (50%) or more of the
+      outstanding shares, or (iii) beneficial ownership of such entity.
+
+      "You" (or "Your") shall mean an individual or Legal Entity
+      exercising permissions granted by this License.
+
+      "Source" form shall mean the preferred form for making modifications,
+      including but not limited to software source code, documentation
+      source, and configuration files.
+
+      "Object" form shall mean any form resulting from mechanical
+      transformation or translation of a Source form, including but
+      not limited to compiled object code, generated documentation,
+      and conversions to other media types.
+
+      "Work" shall mean the work of authorship, whether in Source or
+      Object form, made available under the License, as indicated by a
+      copyright notice that is included in or attached to the work
+      (an example is provided in the Appendix below).
+
+      "Derivative Works" shall mean any work, whether in Source or Object
+      form, that is based on (or derived from) the Work and for which the
+      editorial revisions, annotations, elaborations, or other modifications
+      represent, as a whole, an original work of authorship. For the purposes
+      of this License, Derivative Works shall not include works that remain
+      separable from, or merely link (or bind by name) to the interfaces of,
+      the Work and Derivative Works thereof.
+
+      "Contribution" shall mean any work of authorship, including
+      the original version of the Work and any modifications or additions
+      to that Work or Derivative Works thereof, that is intentionally
+      submitted to Licensor for inclusion in the Work by the copyright owner
+      or by an individual or Legal Entity authorized to submit on behalf of
+      the copyright owner. For the purposes of this definition, "submitted"
+      means any form of electronic, verbal, or written communication sent
+      to the Licensor or its representatives, including but not limited to
+      communication on electronic mailing lists, source code control systems,
+      and issue tracking systems that are managed by, or on behalf of, the
+      Licensor for the purpose of discussing and improving the Work, but
+      excluding communication that is conspicuously marked or otherwise
+      designated in writing by the copyright owner as "Not a Contribution."
+
+      "Contributor" shall mean Licensor and any individual or Legal Entity
+      on behalf of whom a Contribution has been received by Licensor and
+      subsequently incorporated within the Work.
+
+   2. Grant of Copyright License. Subject to the terms and conditions of
+      this License, each Contributor hereby grants to You a perpetual,
+      worldwide, non-exclusive, no-charge, royalty-free, irrevocable
+      copyright license to reproduce, prepare Derivative Works of,
+      publicly display, publicly perform, sublicense, and distribute the
+      Work and such Derivative Works in Source or Object form.
+
+   3. Grant of Patent License. Subject to the terms and conditions of
+      this License, each Contributor hereby grants to You a perpetual,
+      worldwide, non-exclusive, no-charge, royalty-free, irrevocable
+      (except as stated in this section) patent license to make, have made,
+      use, offer to sell, sell, import, and otherwise transfer the Work,
+      where such license applies only to those patent claims licensable
+      by such Contributor that are necessarily infringed by their
+      Contribution(s) alone or by combination of their Contribution(s)
+      with the Work to which such Contribution(s) was submitted. If You
+      institute patent litigation against any entity (including a
+      cross-claim or counterclaim in a lawsuit) alleging that the Work
+      or a Contribution incorporated within the Work constitutes direct
+      or contributory patent infringement, then any patent licenses
+      granted to You under this License for that Work shall terminate
+      as of the date such litigation is filed.
+
+   4. Redistribution. You may reproduce and distribute copies of the
+      Work or Derivative Works thereof in any medium, with or without
+      modifications, and in Source or Object form, provided that You
+      meet the following conditions:
+
+      (a) You must give any other recipients of the Work or
+          Derivative Works a copy of this License; and
+
+      (b) You must cause any modified files to carry prominent notices
+          stating that You changed the files; and
+
+      (c) You must retain, in the Source form of any Derivative Works
+          that You distribute, all copyright, patent, trademark, and
+          attribution notices from the Source form of the Work,
+          excluding those notices that do not pertain to any part of
+          the Derivative Works; and
+
+      (d) If the Work includes a "NOTICE" text file as part of its
+          distribution, then any Derivative Works that You distribute must
+          include a readable copy of the attribution notices contained
+          within such NOTICE file, excluding those notices that do not
+          pertain to any part of the Derivative Works, in at least one
+          of the following places: within a NOTICE text file distributed
+          as part of the Derivative Works; within the Source form or
+          documentation, if provided along with the Derivative Works; or,
+          within a display generated by the Derivative Works, if and
+          wherever such third-party notices normally appear. The contents
+          of the NOTICE file are for informational purposes only and
+          do not modify the License. You may add Your own attribution
+          notices within Derivative Works that You distribute, alongside
+          or as an addendum to the NOTICE text from the Work, provided
+          that such additional attribution notices cannot be construed
+          as modifying the License.
+
+      You may add Your own copyright statement to Your modifications and
+      may provide additional or different license terms and conditions
+      for use, reproduction, or distribution of Your modifications, or
+      for any such Derivative Works as a whole, provided Your use,
+      reproduction, and distribution of the Work otherwise complies with
+      the conditions stated in this License.
+
+   5. Submission of Contributions. Unless You explicitly state otherwise,
+      any Contribution intentionally submitted for inclusion in the Work
+      by You to the Licensor shall be under the terms and conditions of
+      this License, without any additional terms or conditions.
+      Notwithstanding the above, nothing herein shall supersede or modify
+      the terms of any separate license agreement you may have executed
+      with Licensor regarding such Contributions.
+
+   6. Trademarks. This License does not grant permission to use the trade
+      names, trademarks, service marks, or product names of the Licensor,
+      except as required for reasonable and customary use in describing the
+      origin of the Work and reproducing the content of the NOTICE file.
+
+   7. Disclaimer of Warranty. Unless required by applicable law or
+      agreed to in writing, Licensor provides the Work (and each
+      Contributor provides its Contributions) on an "AS IS" BASIS,
+      WITHOUT WARRANTIES OR CONDITIONS OF ANY KIND, either express or
+      implied, including, without limitation, any warranties or conditions
+      of TITLE, NON-INFRINGEMENT, MERCHANTABILITY, or FITNESS FOR A
+      PARTICULAR PURPOSE. You are solely responsible for determining the
+      appropriateness of using or redistributing the Work and assume any
+      risks associated with Your exercise of permissions under this License.
+
+   8. Limitation of Liability. In no event and under no legal theory,
+      whether in tort (including negligence), contract, or otherwise,
+      unless required by applicable law (such as deliberate and grossly
+      negligent acts) or agreed to in writing, shall any Contributor be
+      liable to You for damages, including any direct, indirect, special,
+      incidental, or consequential damages of any character arising as a
+      result of this License or out of the use or inability to use the
+      Work (including but not limited to damages for loss of goodwill,
+      work stoppage, computer failure or malfunction, or any and all
+      other commercial damages or losses), even if such Contributor
+      has been advised of the possibility of such damages.
+
+   9. Accepting Warranty or Additional Liability. While redistributing
+      the Work or Derivative Works thereof, You may choose to offer,
+      and charge a fee for, acceptance of support, warranty, indemnity,
+      or other liability obligations and/or rights consistent with this
+      License. However, in accepting such obligations, You may act only
+      on Your own behalf and on Your sole responsibility, not on behalf
+      of any other Contributor, and only if You agree to indemnify,
+      defend, and hold each Contributor harmless for any liability
+      incurred by, or claims asserted against, such Contributor by reason
+      of your accepting any such warranty or additional liability.
+
+   END OF TERMS AND CONDITIONS
+
+   APPENDIX: How to apply the Apache License to your work.
+
+      To apply the Apache License to your work, attach the following
+      boilerplate notice, with the fields enclosed by brackets "[]"
+      replaced with your own identifying information. (Don't include
+      the brackets!)  The text should be enclosed in the appropriate
+      comment syntax for the file format. We also recommend that a
+      file or class name and description of purpose be included on the
+      same "printed page" as the copyright notice for easier
+      identification within third-party archives.

 # jerboa-awk
+
+`jawk` is an AWK interpreter implemented in Jerboa Scheme.
+
+## Build and Test
+
+```sh
+make verify
+make release-evidence
+```
+
+`make verify` runs the source security gate, import check, parser regression
+tests, deterministic parser corpus evidence, native binary build, CLI smoke
+tests, and secure-default policy tests. `make release-evidence` also records
+SBOM/toolchain evidence and a two-pass clean-build reproducibility report for
+the generated `jawk` binary, repeated parser corpus output, and target proof
+status.
+
+## Secure Defaults
+
+AWK programs are treated as hostile input unless the caller explicitly opts into
+legacy AWK capabilities:
+
+- `JAWK_ALLOW_SYSTEM=1` enables `system()` and pipe redirections.
+- `JAWK_ALLOW_FILE_IO=1` enables script-driven `print > file` and
+  `getline < file` I/O. CLI input files and `-f` program files remain supported.
+- `JAWK_EXPOSE_ENVIRON=1` exposes a small allowlist of process environment
+  variables through `ENVIRON`; by default `ENVIRON` is empty.
+- `JAWK_MAX_PROGRAM_CHARS` caps program text, default 1 MiB.
+- `JAWK_MAX_RECORD_CHARS` caps input records, default 1 MiB.
+
+Generated `jawk` binaries and native build artifacts are ignored and must not be
+tracked.
+
+Production support also requires a reviewed `JAWK_TARGET_PROOF_FILE` with the
+markers documented in `docs/release-evidence.md`. `JAWK_REQUIRE_TARGET_PROOF=1`
+fails closed when that target proof is missing or incomplete.
+
+## Example
+
+```sh
+echo "hello world" | ./jawk '{print $1}'
+echo "a,b,c" | ./jawk -F, '{print $2}'
+```

+# Security Policy
+
+`jerboa-awk` is a local AWK interpreter. AWK program text, regexes, records,
+filenames, and redirection targets are treated as hostile input.
+
+Production claims require the release-plan gates and the repository production
+readiness tracker to be complete for this repository.
+
+## Supported Status
+
+No public production-support commitment exists yet. Security-sensitive releases
+must be cut from a clean checkout after:
+
+- `make verify` passes.
+- `make sbom` and `make reproducibility-report` pass.
+- `make target-evidence` records local blocked status or a reviewed
+  marker-complete target proof.
+- `make release-evidence` produces fresh evidence under `dist/release-evidence/`.
+- `git status --short` shows only intentional source changes and ignored
+  generated artifacts.
+- History has been reviewed for secrets or intentionally reset before first
+  public release.
+
+## Security Expectations
+
+- Do not add network, FFI, or daemon behavior without updating the threat model,
+  `.jerboa/security.json`, tests, and release gates.
+- Keep generated `jawk` binaries, native artifacts, and WPO outputs out of
+  source control.
+- Keep `system()` and pipe redirections disabled unless the operator sets
+  `JAWK_ALLOW_SYSTEM=1`.
+- Keep script-driven file I/O disabled unless the operator sets
+  `JAWK_ALLOW_FILE_IO=1`.
+- Keep `ENVIRON` hidden unless the operator sets `JAWK_EXPOSE_ENVIRON=1`.
+- Keep program and record limits bounded for production.
+- Keep target proof files free of raw AWK input records, output captures,
+  private checkout paths, hostnames, and customer/user data.
+- Do not commit secrets, production `.env` files, operational hostnames,
+  customer/user data, or private infrastructure details.
+
+## Target Production Proof
+
+`JAWK_TARGET_PROOF_FILE` may point at a reviewed proof file for a production
+target environment. `JAWK_REQUIRE_TARGET_PROOF=1` fails closed when that proof is
+missing or marker-incomplete. The proof file must contain these exact markers:
+
+- `long_awk_parity_corpus_status=reviewed`
+- `external_parser_review_status=reviewed`
+- `external_runtime_review_status=reviewed`
+- `sandbox_policy_review_status=reviewed`
+- `script_file_io_review_status=reviewed`
+- `environment_exposure_review_status=reviewed`
+- `sensitive_artifact_policy=no-input-record-output-captures-private-paths-or-host-data`
+
+## Reporting
+
+Before public release, report issues privately to the repository owner. After
+public release, replace this section with a dedicated advisory contact, supported
+versions, and disclosure window.

+# Parser Hardening
+
+`jawk` parses hostile AWK source and records.
+
+## Limits
+
+- `JAWK_MAX_PROGRAM_CHARS` caps inline and `-f` program text. Default: 1 MiB.
+- `JAWK_MAX_RECORD_CHARS` caps input records. Default: 1 MiB.
+
+## Capability Gates
+
+- `JAWK_ALLOW_SYSTEM=1` enables `system()` and pipe redirections.
+- `JAWK_ALLOW_FILE_IO=1` enables script-driven redirection and `getline` file
+  I/O.
+- `JAWK_EXPOSE_ENVIRON=1` exposes a small allowlist of environment variables.
+
+## Regression Coverage
+
+`tests/test-parser.ss` covers normal parser forms, function/range/pipe AST
+shapes, unterminated strings, unterminated regexes, malformed `for`, and
+oversized direct parser input.
+
+`make parser-corpus` adds deterministic AWK parser corpus evidence:
+
+- `parser_corpus_status: documented`
+- `parser_corpus_cases_minimum: 512`
+- `parser_corpus_scope_status: functions-ranges-loops-io-malformed`
+
+The corpus covers generated function definitions, range patterns, loop forms,
+getline syntax, large-but-bounded programs, and explicit malformed programs.
+Malformed inputs must reject; accepted programs must produce a valid
+`awk-program` with rule/function structures that satisfy AST predicates.
+
+`make test-cli-policy` covers disabled-by-default shell, pipe, file I/O, hidden
+`ENVIRON`, and opt-in behavior for the compatibility paths.
+
+## Target Review Gates
+
+`make target-evidence` records production-only blockers that cannot be satisfied
+by the local deterministic parser corpus alone:
+
+- `long_awk_parity_corpus_status`
+- `external_parser_review_status`
+- `external_runtime_review_status`
+- `sandbox_policy_review_status`
+- `script_file_io_review_status`
+- `environment_exposure_review_status`
+
+Those markers default to `blocked-not-run` until a reviewed target proof file is
+attached through `JAWK_TARGET_PROOF_FILE`.

+# Release Evidence
+
+Run:
+
+```sh
+make verify
+make sbom
+make reproducibility-report
+make target-evidence
+make release-evidence
+```
+
+`make release-evidence` writes `dist/release-evidence/` with:
+
+- git commit, status, and diff-stat;
+- selected non-secret build environment values;
+- security/import/parser-corpus/test logs;
+- a CLI smoke output;
+- SHA-256 hashes for the generated `jawk` binary and source inputs;
+- `sbom/`, a dependency/toolchain manifest with source and release-input hashes;
+- `reproducibility/report.txt`, comparing two clean local `jawk` builds after a
+  throwaway toolchain prewarm, plus the source manifest before/after the
+  measured comparison and repeated `parser_corpus_status`.
+- `target-evidence/`, a local blocked-status record or a reviewed target proof
+  copied with a SHA-256 sidecar.
+
+Generated files under `dist/`, `.build/`, the root `jawk` binary, native object
+files, and WPO outputs are excluded from source hashes and must remain untracked.
+
+Release evidence must remain host-neutral. Use status fields such as
+`jerboa_home_status=present` instead of private toolchain paths, and `uname -srm`
+instead of full host-identifying platform banners.
+
+## Target Production Proof
+
+`scripts/target-evidence.sh` writes `dist/target-evidence/status.txt`.
+Without a proof file, local release evidence records:
+
+- `target_evidence_status: local-release-proof-recorded`
+- `target_awk_proof_status: not-run`
+- `long_awk_parity_corpus_status: blocked-not-run`
+- `external_parser_review_status: blocked-not-run`
+- `external_runtime_review_status: blocked-not-run`
+- `sandbox_policy_review_status: blocked-not-run`
+- `script_file_io_review_status: blocked-not-run`
+- `environment_exposure_review_status: blocked-not-run`
+- `production_awk_status: blocked-not-run`
+
+To attach reviewed target evidence, set `JAWK_TARGET_PROOF_FILE` to a file that
+contains these exact markers:
+
+```text
+long_awk_parity_corpus_status=reviewed
+external_parser_review_status=reviewed
+external_runtime_review_status=reviewed
+sandbox_policy_review_status=reviewed
+script_file_io_review_status=reviewed
+environment_exposure_review_status=reviewed
+sensitive_artifact_policy=no-input-record-output-captures-private-paths-or-host-data
+```
+
+Set `JAWK_REQUIRE_TARGET_PROOF=1` on production release hosts to fail closed
+when the proof file is missing or incomplete. Proof files must not contain raw
+input records, output captures, private paths, hostnames, or customer data.

+# jawk Threat Model
+
+`jawk` is a local AWK interpreter. It has no intended network behavior, daemon
+mode, FFI, credential storage, or privileged operation.
+
+## Assets
+
+- Local filesystem integrity.
+- Data passed to `jawk` on stdin or through input files.
+- Release artifacts generated by `jerbuild`.
+- The caller's environment variables.
+
+## Trust Boundaries
+
+- AWK program text is untrusted.
+- Input records are untrusted.
+- Regexes, field separators, redirection targets, and `getline` sources are
+  untrusted.
+- CLI-selected input files and `-f` program files are operator-selected.
+- Generated native binaries are build artifacts, not source.
+
+## Security Goals
+
+- No network access.
+- No FFI in repository source.
+- No broad direct Chez imports in production paths.
+- `system()` and pipe redirections are disabled unless explicitly enabled.
+- Script-driven file reads/writes are disabled unless explicitly enabled.
+- `ENVIRON` is empty unless explicitly enabled.
+- Program and record sizes are bounded.
+- Release gates scan tracked and untracked source files and reject generated
+  artifacts.
+
+## Non-Goals
+
+- A sandbox around the host process.
+- Full POSIX awk compatibility when secure defaults are active.
+- Safe execution of arbitrary untrusted AWK programs with shell/file capabilities
+  enabled.
