From 85509a71dc243851ab17513b3390b6a252ee0aff Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Howard Enos Date: Sun, 31 May 2026 16:22:38 -0700 Subject: [PATCH] feat(onboarding-diag): allowlist ACG's own stack; downgrade Defender-off w/ 3rd-party AV (3d886f1a) The probe flagged ACG's own MSP tooling (ScreenConnect/ConnectWise Control, Splashtop, Syncro, Datto RMM, Datto EDR/AV) as CRITICAL "foreign agent" and flagged Defender-off as CRITICAL even when a 3rd-party AV had legitimately disabled it. Now: allowlisted tools emit an INFO "expected ACG tooling" finding (genuinely-foreign tools still CRITICAL); Defender-off is downgraded to INFO only when a 3rd-party AV is active. JSON contract + grading unchanged.
