Moves the list of private organisation / pilot / codename
strings the security gate blocks OUT of the repo entirely.
Before: tools/security/check-staged.sh + the Today AI prompt
+ docs/today-pipeline.md held the strings in plaintext. The
whole point of the gate is to keep certain strings out of
committed artefacts, so holding them in a committed
artefact was self-defeating — anyone with read access to
the repo trivially recovered the very list we tried to
protect.
After:
- The gate reads a runtime file
`${FAI_BANNED_TERMS_FILE:-~/.fai-security/banned-terms.txt}`
at scan time. One regex per line, `#`-prefixed comments,
matched case-insensitively against staged diffs and
commit messages. Repos contain no copy.
- Pre-commit / commit-msg modes log a warning + skip the
confidential-terms scan if the file is missing (fresh
checkouts shouldn't trip until the operator bootstraps
the list).
- CI mode (`check-staged.sh ci`) FAILS when the file is
missing — runners are expected to be bootstrapped by
their deploy step.
- The unit-test harness uses a synthetic placeholder term
(`SYNTHETIC_BANNED_TERM_XYZZY`) injected via a temp
banned-terms file, so the test never references real
customer names.
- docs/today-pipeline.md + tools/today/prompt.template.md
point at the runtime file instead of enumerating terms.
Operator bootstrap (one-time, per machine):
mkdir -p ~/.fai-security && chmod 700 ~/.fai-security
printf '\\b%s\\b\\n' TERM_A TERM_B > ~/.fai-security/banned-terms.txt
chmod 600 ~/.fai-security/banned-terms.txt
Gate self-tests: 18 passed, 0 failed.

Mirrors the hook + script from `fai/platform`@1ebf893 verbatim
so commits to fai_studio go through the same gate: secrets,
forbidden filenames, confidentiality references, marketing-
speak, DCO sign-off, Conventional Commits subject, no Claude
co-author trailer.
A `.security-allow` file at the repo root extends the script's
universal excludes with three Studio-specific paths whose
content legitimately includes the filtered terms — the
Today-Hero proposal pipeline (LLM prompt + accept gate), its
runtime loader equivalent, and its operator-facing policy doc.
No CI mirror yet — Studio doesn't have a Forgejo workflow
(Flutter-on-DinD is a chunk of work). The local hook is the
gate for now; CI mirror follows when Flutter CI lands.
Activate once with `bash tools/install-hooks.sh`.
