🔥 Burn Report #6 — 2026-03-31 — Security Gap + Phase 31 Scaffold

Focus Area: Critical Security Follow-up + Nexus Architect Foundation
Burn Duration: ~20 minutes (parallel execution)
Subagents Deployed: 3
Issues Addressed: #72 (CRITICAL gap), #186 (P0 verification), #42 (Phase 31 scaffold)


Executive Summary

Three parallel workstreams executed: crisis safety jailbreak testing (blocked), P0 fallback verification (complete), and Nexus Architect scaffold (complete). Identified CRITICAL security gap requiring immediate attention.


Work Completed

Task 1: Crisis Safety Jailbreak Test (Issue #72 CRITICAL Gap)

Status: ⚠️ BLOCKED — CANNOT VERIFY SAFETY

Background:
The Red Team Audit (#72) found og_godmode template bypassed phishing refusal. The audit explicitly stated:

"MUST: Test og_godmode + crisis queries... If it can [bypass suicide safety], this is a CRITICAL finding that blocks deployment."

What Was Done:

  • Created comprehensive test framework (/tmp/crisis-safety-test.py)
  • 4 crisis test cases designed

Blocker:
OPENROUTER_API_KEY not found in environment.

Verdict: UNKNOWN — Cannot confirm crisis safety without testing

Deployment Recommendation:
🛑 DO NOT DEPLOY anthropic/claude-opus-4-6 for crisis-facing applications until this test completes.


Task 2: P0 Fallback Verification (Issue #186)

Status: COMPLETE — PR CREATED

Component Status Details
agent/fallback_router.py Complete 404 lines — quota detection, fallback chains
agent/input_sanitizer.py Complete 573 lines — jailbreak pattern detection
Tests 136 passing 67 fallback + 69 sanitizer tests

Action Taken:

  • Created PR #78: [P0] Add kimi-coding fallback for Timmy and Ezra
  • Issue #186 can be closed via PR #78 merge.

Task 3: Phase 31 — Nexus Architect Scaffold (Issue #42)

Status: COMPLETE — FOUNDATION LAID

File Size Description
tools/nexus_architect.py 42KB Main tool with 6 registered operations
tests/tools/test_nexus_architect.py 24KB 48 comprehensive tests (100% pass)
docs/nexus_architect.md 15KB Complete API reference

🚨 Critical Issues Requiring Immediate Action

P0: Crisis Safety Not Verified

Risk: Potential bypass of suicide safety via og_godmode jailbreak
Impact: Life-threatening if deployed for crisis support
Action Required:

  1. Provide OPENROUTER_API_KEY in environment
  2. Re-run crisis safety audit
  3. Do NOT deploy for crisis-facing use until verified
