BED-9371: restrict reviewer deployment edges to valid code paths

[jaredcatkinson]

Summary

• only emit reviewer-originated GH_CanDeployToEnvironment edges when the reviewer can both self-approve and supply deployable code
• resolve reviewer write capability through direct repo roles, team inheritance, built-in org roles, and custom org-role assignments
• preserve environment branch policy behavior for unrestricted, protected, and custom-policy environments
• update edge documentation and schema text to distinguish approval authority from traversable deployment capability

Testing

• uv run pytest tests/test_environment_model.py tests/test_environment_reviewer_lookup.py tests/test_branch_collection_gate.py tests/test_branch_protection_traversability.py
• uv run ruff check src/openhound_github/main.py src/openhound_github/transforms.py src/openhound_github/lookup.py src/openhound_github/models/environment.py src/openhound_github/models/environment_branch_policy.py tests/test_environment_model.py tests/test_environment_reviewer_lookup.py
• git diff --check

Notes

• full uv run pytest still fails during collection because tests/test_github_rest_client.py and tests/test_github_retry.py import modules that are not present in src/openhound_github on current main

Summary by CodeRabbit

• Enhancements
  • Reviewer deployment access now requires both approval authority and a valid way to provide deployable code.
  • Branch creation and writing are evaluated against environment branch policies, including protected and custom branches.
  • Permissions inherited through teams and organizational roles are now recognized.
  • Self-review prevention behavior remains unchanged.
• Bug Fixes
  • Prevented deployment access when no eligible, writable branch or branch-creation path exists.
• Tests
  • Added coverage for protected branches, custom policies, team membership, and inherited roles.

Walkthrough

Reviewer deployment edges now require self-approval authority and a deployable code path. The change adds branch-policy evaluation, inherited reviewer authorization lookup, branch-write checks, preprocessing inputs, and tests for protected and custom policies.

Changes

Reviewer deployment path

Layer / File(s)	Summary
Authorization and policy inputs src/openhound_github/main.py, src/openhound_github/transforms.py	Preprocessing and schema backfills now provide users, teams, memberships, organization roles, repository roles, and environment branch policies.
Reviewer deployment-path lookup src/openhound_github/lookup.py, tests/test_environment_reviewer_lookup.py	GithubLookup resolves inherited reviewer roles and permissions, then returns a create-branch or write-branch path only when an eligible writable branch exists.
Policy-aware environment edges src/openhound_github/models/environment.py, src/openhound_github/models/environment_branch_policy.py, descriptions/edges/*, extension/schema.json, tests/test_environment_model.py	Environment edge generation now handles unrestricted, protected, and custom branch policies. Reviewer deployment edges require a deployable path and preserve the self-review restriction. Tests cover missing paths, protected branches, custom policies, and policy matching.

Estimated code review effort: 4 (Complex) | ~45 minutes

Merge Risk: 🔵 Low · up to 67d2a

This change narrows reviewer deployment edges and expands role resolution, but the organization-role lookup still lacks an empty-resource fallback that could affect reviewer edge generation when that resource is unavailable. The PR is mergeable with explicit owner awareness or follow-up to harden that lookup.

Poem

A rabbit checks the branches green,
And follows roles through teams unseen.
No writable path? The edge stays still.
With matching code, deploy it will.
Approval joins the hopping flow. 🐇

841-843: 📐 Maintainability & Code Quality | 🔵 Trivial | 💤 Low value

Remove the duplicated eligibility test.

The loop already iterates eligible_branch_ids, so branch_id in eligible_branches is always true. eligible_branches then has no remaining use.

♻️ Proposed simplification

-        eligible_branches = set(eligible_branch_ids)
         write_roles = {"write", "maintain", "admin"}

             for branch_id in eligible_branch_ids:
-                if branch_id in writable_branches and branch_id in eligible_branches:
+                if branch_id in writable_branches:
                     return ("write_branch", branch_id)

Consider adding a negative case for a non-writing reviewer.

The four tests all assert a granted path, plus one branch-ineligibility case. A reviewer whose only repository role is read is the main behavior the PR restricts, and it is not covered. A test that inserts a read role assignment and asserts None would pin that rule.

In `@src/openhound_github/models/environment.py`:
- Around line 401-409: Update _reviewer_eligible_branch_ids and the
custom-policy query construction in src/openhound_github/models/environment.py:
when has_custom_branch_policies and protected_branches are both enabled, include
the GH_ProtectedBy hop and protected_branches predicate; for custom-only
queries, explicitly require coalesce(env.protected_branches, false) = false. In
tests/test_environment_model.py lines 246-272, add coverage for both flags,
asserting the eligible branch tuple passed to reviewer_deployment_path and the
composed query content.

Apply the same fix in `@tests/test_environment_model.py` around lines 246 - 272:
Covered by the consolidated remediation and requested combined-policy test.

In `@src/openhound_github/transforms.py`:
- Around line 65-78: Update the org_roles handling around _find_all_objects to
provide an empty-table fallback when org_roles is absent, while preserving
direct repository-role assignments instead of filtering them out. Ensure
downstream reviewer role assignment logic treats the missing table as empty and
continues processing valid direct assignments.
