Strawberry can organise code-signing requests, artifact and policy context, release approvals, provenance evidence, and audit-ready exceptions around the SignPath workspace you open. Engineering, release, security, and compliance teams can work from the actual request and its supporting checks before a trusted artifact is allowed to move forward.
A signature applied to the wrong artifact or release path can give untrusted software the appearance of a trusted build. Keep the build origin, policy result, approval context, and intended release scope together before the signing decision is made.
01
A SignPath signing request should be judged with its provenance, not its label.
Review the SignPath signing requests visible here.
Build an exception list for artifacts with unclear origin, missing policy evidence, or approval context that needs a release-owner decision.
This creates a release-ready question for each exception: what was built, where it came from, which check is unresolved, and who has authority to resolve it.
02
Policy checks are easier to trust when the whole release path is visible.
Trace this SignPath request from repository and build context through policy checks, approval, signing result, and the release artifact it is intended to support.
The review turns a technical record into a verifiable chain that security and release teams can inspect without assuming that a successful status answers every provenance question.
03
SignPath evidence should reach audit and release owners in a usable form.
Prepare an audit handoff for the SignPath releases completed this week, grouping evidence by release owner and identifying any record that needs security follow-up.
A targeted handoff leaves each owner with the exact signed artifact record and the open evidence issue, rather than a generic list of releases that must be re-investigated.
04
SignPath exceptions should be reviewed immediately after the release window.
After the weekday release window, prepare a SignPath integrity review of newly completed and failed signing requests so exceptions reach the release and security owners before the next cut.
Store that release-control pass as a SignPath skill and run it after the normal deployment window, when evidence is fresh and a disputed artifact has not yet become tomorrow’s production mystery.
It can turn the SignPath request and evidence views you select into a review of artifact provenance, policy state, approvals, and release follow-through.
It can prepare the context for a decision, but approval must remain with the authorised release or security owner.
Yes. Keep a proven post-release check as a SignPath skill and schedule it to run when new signing results need attention.
SignPath enforces software-integrity and code-signing controls; Strawberry helps teams investigate the operational work around those controls.
