This submission finalizes the implementation of two core services for the ThumbCode application, now correctly structured within a new @thumbcode/core package to align with the project's pnpm workspace architecture.

  1. Isomorphic-Git Service: Enables Git operations (clone, commit, push, status, diff) directly on the mobile device by integrating isomorphic-git with expo-file-system.
  2. Secure Credential Storage: Provides a secure way to store sensitive information like GitHub tokens and AI API keys using expo-secure-store, leveraging hardware-backed encryption and biometric authentication.

This change addresses issues #8 and #9, providing a solid foundation for the application's core functionality while adhering to the established architectural patterns.

📝 Walkthrough

Walkthrough

This PR introduces a new packages/core package containing credential management and Git operation modules, while removing corresponding modules from src/services/. The new core package provides secure credential storage wrappers and Git operations (clone, commit, push, status, diff) via isomorphic-git for Expo environments.

Changes

Cohort / File(s) Summary
New Core Package Configuration
packages/core/package.json, packages/core/tsconfig.json
Establishes private "@thumbcode/core" package (v1.0.0) with dependencies on isomorphic-git, expo-secure-store, and expo-file-system. TypeScript config extends base config with ./dist output.
Credentials Module
packages/core/src/credentials/secureStore.ts, packages/core/src/credentials/validation.ts, packages/core/src/credentials/index.ts
Wraps expo-secure-store with setCredential/getCredential/deleteCredential functions. Adds GitHub token (ghp\_) and Anthropic key (sk-ant-api03-) format validators. Index re-exports both submodules.
Git Module
packages/core/src/git/client.ts, packages/core/src/git/operations.ts, packages/core/src/git/index.ts
Configures isomorphic-git with FileSystem and HTTP plugins. Implements clone (CORS proxy + shallow), commit (status matrix-based staging), push (token auth), status, and diff operations targeting Expo documentDirectory. Index re-exports both submodules.
Services Cleanup
src/services/ai/index.ts, src/services/credentials/index.ts, src/services/git/index.ts, src/services/github/index.ts, src/services/index.ts
Removed placeholder/empty service index modules and the services barrel, consolidating functionality under packages/core.

Code Review Complete ✅

I've reviewed this PR that implements Git and Secure Credential services in the new @thumbcode/core package. Here's my comprehensive feedback:


🎯 Overall Assessment

Strengths:

  • Clean separation into a new @thumbcode/core package (good architectural move)
  • Follows the documented stack choices (isomorphic-git, expo-secure-store)
  • Removes placeholder code from src/services/
  • Basic security awareness with biometric authentication

Critical Issues Found: 7 issues requiring attention
Suggestions: 5 improvements recommended


🚨 Critical Issues

1. Missing Package Export Configuration

File: packages/core/package.json:5

The package.json has "main": "src/index.ts" but there's no src/index.ts file. This will break imports.

// Current (broken)
"main": "src/index.ts"

// Should be either:
"main": "src/index.ts",  // and create src/index.ts
// OR
"exports": {
  "./git": "./src/git/index.ts",
  "./credentials": "./src/credentials/index.ts"
}

Fix missing package exports →

2. Unsafe Directory Construction - Path Traversal Vulnerability

File: packages/core/src/git/operations.ts:8,17,38,45,50

The code concatenates user-provided repoName directly into file paths without validation. This creates a path traversal vulnerability.

// UNSAFE - allows "../../../etc/passwd" as repoName
const repoDir = `${dir}/${repoName}`;

Attack scenario: A malicious repoName like "../../sensitive-data" could access files outside the intended directory.

Fix: Validate and sanitize repoName:

import { basename } from 'path';

// In operations.ts, add validation helper
const validateRepoName = (name: string): string => {
  // Only allow alphanumeric, dash, underscore, dot
  if (!/^[a-zA-Z0-9._-]+$/.test(name)) {
    throw new Error('Invalid repository name');
  }
  // Use basename to prevent path traversal
  return basename(name);
};

export const clone = async (url: string, repoName: string) => {
  const safeName = validateRepoName(repoName);
  return git.clone({
    dir: `${dir}/${safeName}`,
    // ...
  });
};

Fix path traversal vulnerability →

3. Missing Error Handling in Critical Operations

Files: packages/core/src/git/operations.ts, packages/core/src/credentials/secureStore.ts

None of the exported functions have try-catch blocks or document what errors they throw. This will cause unhandled promise rejections.

Issues:

  • Network failures in clone() and push()
  • File system errors in commit() and diff()
  • Authentication failures in getCredential()
  • Biometric cancellation in secure store operations

Fix: Add error handling and document errors:

/**
 * Clone a repository
 * @throws {NetworkError} If clone fails due to network issues
 * @throws {AuthenticationError} If authentication fails
 * @throws {FileSystemError} If unable to write to disk
 */
export const clone = async (url: string, repoName: string) => {
  try {
    const safeName = validateRepoName(repoName);
    return await git.clone({
      dir: `${dir}/${safeName}`,
      url,
      corsProxy: 'https://cors.isomorphic-git.org',
      singleBranch: true,
      depth: 1,
    });
  } catch (error) {
    // Add context to error before re-throwing
    throw new Error(`Failed to clone ${url}: ${error.message}`, { cause: error });
  }
};

Add error handling →

4. Insecure Push Authentication

File: packages/core/src/git/operations.ts:36-40

The push() function uses token as username, which is incorrect for GitHub authentication and exposes the token in logs.

// WRONG - token should not be username
onAuth: () => ({ username: token })

// CORRECT - GitHub expects token in password field
onAuth: () => ({ 
  username: 'oauth2',  // or actual username
  password: token 
})

Fix authentication →

5. Incomplete TypeScript Configuration

File: packages/core/tsconfig.json

The tsconfig extends from root but doesn't specify essential compiler options for a library package.

Missing critical options:

  • declaration: true (no .d.ts files will be generated)
  • declarationMap: true (no source maps for types)
  • composite: true (breaks project references)
  • rootDir and outDir mismatch with actual structure
{
  "extends": "../../tsconfig.json",
  "compilerOptions": {
    "outDir": "./dist",
    "rootDir": "./src",
    "declaration": true,
    "declarationMap": true,
    "composite": true
  },
  "include": ["src"],
  "exclude": ["node_modules", "dist"]
}

Fix TypeScript config →

6. Missing Type Definitions

File: packages/core/src/git/operations.ts:16

The author parameter uses an inline type instead of a proper interface. Also missing types for return values.

// Current - inline types, no return types
export const commit = async (repoName: string, author: { name: string; email: string }, message: string) => {

// Better - proper types
export interface GitAuthor {
  name: string;
  email: string;
}

export interface GitCommitResult {
  sha: string;
  message: string;
}

export const commit = async (
  repoName: string, 
  author: GitAuthor, 
  message: string
): Promise<GitCommitResult> => {

Add type definitions →

7. Hardcoded CORS Proxy

File: packages/core/src/git/operations.ts:10

The CORS proxy URL is hardcoded, which could be a single point of failure and performance bottleneck.

// Hardcoded - bad
corsProxy: 'https://cors.isomorphic-git.org',

// Better - configurable
export interface GitCloneOptions {
  corsProxy?: string;
  singleBranch?: boolean;
  depth?: number;
}

export const clone = async (
  url: string, 
  repoName: string,
  options: GitCloneOptions = {}
) => {
  const { 
    corsProxy = 'https://cors.isomorphic-git.org',
    singleBranch = true,
    depth = 1 
  } = options;
  // ...
}

Make CORS proxy configurable →


💡 Suggestions for Improvement

8. Weak Token Validation

File: packages/core/src/credentials/validation.ts

The regex patterns are outdated:

  • GitHub now supports fine-grained tokens (github_pat_...)
  • Anthropic API keys may have different formats

Consider making validation more flexible:

export const validateGitHubToken = (token: string): boolean => {
  // Support both classic (ghp_) and fine-grained (github_pat_) tokens
  return /^(ghp_[a-zA-Z0-9]{36}|github_pat_[a-zA-Z0-9_]{82})$/.test(token);
};

9. Inefficient Commit Staging

File: packages/core/src/git/operations.ts:20-26

The commit function stages files one-by-one in a loop, which is slow for large repos. Also, the status matrix format is not documented.

// Current - O(n) network/disk ops
for (const [filepath, head, workdir] of status) {
  if (workdir === 0 && head === 1) {
    await git.remove({ dir: repoDir, filepath });
  } else {
    await git.add({ dir: repoDir, filepath });
  }
}

// Better - batch operations
const toAdd = status.filter(([_, head, workdir]) => workdir !== 0 || head !== 1);
const toRemove = status.filter(([_, head, workdir]) => workdir === 0 && head === 1);

await Promise.all([
  ...toAdd.map(([filepath]) => git.add({ dir: repoDir, filepath })),
  ...toRemove.map(([filepath]) => git.remove({ dir: repoDir, filepath }))
]);

10. Missing Tests

No tests were added for this critical security-sensitive code. At minimum, add:

  • Unit tests for path traversal protection
  • Tests for error scenarios (network failure, auth failure)
  • Tests for credential validation
  • Mock tests for secure store operations

11. Missing Documentation

No JSDoc comments explaining:

  • What each function does
  • What parameters mean
  • What errors can be thrown
  • Usage examples

Example:

/**
 * Clone a Git repository to local storage
 * 
 * @param url - The Git repository URL (https only)
 * @param repoName - Safe repository name (alphanumeric, dash, underscore only)
 * @returns Promise that resolves when clone is complete
 * @throws {Error} If repoName contains invalid characters
 * @throws {Error} If network request fails
 * 
 * @example
 * ```ts
 * await clone('https://github.com/user/repo.git', 'my-repo');
 * ```
 */

12. Unused Version Field

File: packages/core/package.json:3

The package has "private": true but also a "version": "1.0.0" field. Private packages don't need versions.


🎨 ThumbCode-Specific Concerns

Good: This is a core library package, so design token requirements (colors, typography, organic styling) don't apply here.

Good: Follows naming conventions (kebab-case files, camelCase functions)

Issue: File structure doesn't match CLAUDE.md conventions. CLAUDE.md specifies src/lib/ for utilities, but this creates packages/core/. While the workspace structure is valid, it should be documented in CLAUDE.md.


📊 Security Assessment

Security Score: 4/10 ⚠️

Vulnerabilities:

  1. Path traversal attack vector (HIGH severity)
  2. Incorrect authentication pattern (MEDIUM severity)
  3. No input validation (MEDIUM severity)
  4. Weak token validation (LOW severity)

Good practices:

  • Uses hardware-backed secure storage
  • Requires biometric authentication
  • No hardcoded credentials

⚡ Performance Considerations

  • Sequential file staging in commit() could be slow for repos with many files
  • No caching strategy for repeated git operations
  • Deep clone disabled (good - uses shallow clone)
  • Single branch clone (good - reduces data transfer)

📝 Missing Components

  1. No src/index.ts - package export is broken
  2. No tests - critical for security-sensitive code
  3. No README - developers won't know how to use this package
  4. No error types - just throws generic Errors
  5. No logging - debugging will be difficult

✅ Recommendations

Before merging:

  1. Fix the path traversal vulnerability (CRITICAL)
  2. Fix package exports (CRITICAL)
  3. Fix authentication in push() (HIGH)
  4. Add error handling (HIGH)
  5. Add TypeScript types and return annotations (HIGH)

Nice to have:
6. Add comprehensive tests
7. Add JSDoc documentation
8. Make CORS proxy configurable
9. Optimize commit staging
10. Update CLAUDE.md to document workspace structure


📋 Summary

This PR makes good architectural progress by creating a dedicated core package and implementing the basic Git and credential functionality. However, it has critical security vulnerabilities that must be fixed before merging, particularly the path traversal issue and incorrect authentication.

The code would benefit from proper error handling, TypeScript type definitions, and comprehensive tests given that this handles sensitive operations (credentials, file system, network).

Verdict: ⚠️ Needs work before merge - Security issues must be addressed.

🤖 Fix all issues with AI agents
In `@packages/core/package.json`:
- Around line 7-9: Update and verify the listed dependency versions for
compatibility with your Expo SDK: confirm "expo-secure-store" ^14.0.0 behaves
correctly on Android 13 (decryption) and iOS Keychain persistence by running
platform tests; ensure "expo-file-system" ^17.0.1 is the SDK-recommended bundled
package for your target Expo SDK; validate "isomorphic-git" ^1.27.0 does not
introduce transitive cors-proxy or fs-adapter issues and that any fs adapter
(e.g., expo-fs) you use is compatible; finally run `npm audit` (or `yarn audit`)
against the lockfile, consult Expo SDK docs for recommended package versions,
and bump or pin dependency versions in package.json as needed based on these
findings.

In `@packages/core/src/credentials/secureStore.ts`:
- Around line 17-21: deleteCredential currently omits the authentication options
present in setCredential and getCredential, allowing deletion without user
verification; update the SecureStore.deleteItemAsync call in deleteCredential to
include the same authentication options (e.g., requireAuthentication: true and
the same authenticationPrompt and keychainService values used by
setCredential/getCredential) so deletion requires user auth and matches the
other credential methods.

In `@packages/core/src/git/operations.ts`:
- Line 4: FileSystem.documentDirectory can be null, so remove the unguarded
top-level const dir = FileSystem.documentDirectory and replace all
interpolations that use `${dir}/${repoName}` with a safe helper
getRepoDir(repoName) that checks FileSystem.documentDirectory for null and
either throws a clear error or returns a valid fallback; update all functions in
this file that reference dir (e.g., any usages that build repo paths) to call
getRepoDir(repoName) instead to avoid producing "null/..." paths.
- Around line 20-26: The loop over the isomorphic-git statusMatrix is
destructuring the 4-tuple incorrectly and not checking the STAGE state; update
the destructuring in the block that iterates statusMatrix (the variables
currently named filepath, head, workdir) to capture all four values (e.g.,
filepath, head, workdir, stage) and then use head, workdir, and stage to decide
actions: call git.remove({ dir: repoDir, filepath }) only when HEAD indicates
tracked and WORKDIR indicates removed and STAGE does not already reflect the
removal, and call git.add({ dir: repoDir, filepath }) only when WORKDIR shows
changes and STAGE does not already reflect those changes to avoid redundant
staging; adjust variable names and conditional checks in the loop where git.add
and git.remove are called so the logic uses the correct WORKDIR and STAGE
values.
- Around line 63-68: In the catch for readBlob inside the function handling git
file operations, don't treat every error as a missing file; check the thrown
error's name (e.g., compare e.name === 'TreeOrBlobNotFoundError') and only in
that case return oldContent: '' and attempt to read the working copy; for any
other error rethrow it so real failures (corruption, bad HEAD, permission
issues) surface; also wrap
FileSystem.readAsStringAsync(`${repoDir}/${filepath}`) in its own try/catch and
propagate errors from that call instead of silently assuming the file exists.
🧹 Nitpick comments (3)
packages/core/package.json (1)

5-5: Consider pointing main to compiled output.

The main field points to src/index.ts (TypeScript source) while tsconfig.json compiles to ./dist. For consumers outside this package (even within the monorepo), this may cause issues unless the bundler is explicitly configured to transpile workspace dependencies.

If this is intentional for Metro bundler usage in Expo, this can work, but consider adding a types field and ensuring Metro's watchFolders includes this package.

♻️ Suggested package.json fields for clarity

packages/core/src/credentials/validation.ts (1)

1-6: GitHub token validation may reject valid tokens.

The regex only validates classic Personal Access Tokens (ghp_*). GitHub also issues:

  • Fine-grained PATs: github_pat_*
  • OAuth tokens: gho_*
  • GitHub App tokens: ghs_*, ghu_*

If the app should support these token types, consider broadening the validation or documenting that only classic PATs are supported.

♻️ Optional: Support multiple GitHub token formats
-const GITHUB_TOKEN_REGEX = /^ghp_[a-zA-Z0-9]{36}$/;
+// Classic PAT, fine-grained PAT, OAuth, and GitHub App tokens
+const GITHUB_TOKEN_REGEX = /^(ghp_[a-zA-Z0-9]{36}|github_pat_[a-zA-Z0-9_]{22,}|gho_[a-zA-Z0-9]{36}|ghs_[a-zA-Z0-9]{36}|ghu_[a-zA-Z0-9]{36})$/;
packages/core/src/credentials/secureStore.ts (1)

3-15: Consider adding explicit return type annotations and error handling guidance.

The functions lack explicit return type annotations. While TypeScript infers them, explicit types improve API clarity. Also, expo-secure-store can throw errors (e.g., user cancels authentication, secure storage unavailable). Consider documenting expected error handling behavior for consumers.

♻️ Explicit return types

expo-secure-store security vulnerabilities

💡 Result:

Summary — known/security-relevant issues (concise)

  • Critical iOS policy bug (CVE-2020-24653): versions before expo-secure-store 9.1.0 mapped WHEN_UNLOCKED_THIS_DEVICE_ONLY to the insecure kSecAttrAccessibleAlwaysThisDeviceOnly. Fixed in 9.1.0 — upgrade if you’re on <9.1.0. [1][2][3]

  • Platform/compatibility problems reported more recently: users have reported Android 13 decryption/crash problems and iOS Keychain interaction errors in certain SDK upgrades (these are active GitHub issues, not CVEs). Test on affected OS/devices (e.g., Pixel Android 13, various iOS versions) and monitor Expo issues for fixes/workarounds. [4][5]

Recommendations

  • Upgrade expo-secure-store to the latest stable release (at minimum >= 9.1.0 to address the CVE). [1][3]
  • Test secure-store flows on target OS versions (Android 13, latest iOS) and clean-install scenarios (iOS Keychain may persist across app uninstall). [4][5]
  • Monitor the Expo GitHub issues and Snyk/security databases for new advisories and patch notes. [3][4]

🌐 Web query:

expo-file-system security vulnerabilities

💡 Result:

Short answer: There are no publicly reported CVEs or confirmed critical security vulnerabilities in the expo-file-system package as of Jan 18, 2026, but there are several non-security bugs, API changes, and dependency-vulnerability warnings in dependent packages that you should monitor and mitigate. [1][2][3]. (security.snyk.io)

Details and recommendations (concise)

  • Vulnerability scans (Snyk / package scanners) show no direct vulnerabilities for expo-file-system across recent versions. [1]. (security.snyk.io)
  • Expo maintainers list security/contact processes and a disclosure address; report suspected vulnerabilities to them. [2]. (expo.dev)
  • There are several GitHub issues and user reports about functional bugs, API changes, and migration-related warnings (copyAsync, bundle path handling, rewrite/legacy changes) — these are not CVEs but can affect correctness and permissions handling. Track those issues and changelogs. [3][4]. (github.com)

Action items

  • Keep expo-file-system updated to the latest stable release. Scan dependencies (npm audit / Snyk / Dependabot) — many warnings come from nested deps, not expo-file-system itself. [1]. (security.snyk.io)
  • Subscribe/watch the Expo repo and Expo security page for advisories; report suspected security bugs to vulnerability-disclosures@expo.dev. [2]. (expo.dev)

If you want, I can:

  • run a dependency scan on a specific package.json or lockfile, or
  • watch for new advisories and send a summary (daily/weekly). Which would you prefer?

Expo SDK compatibility isomorphic-git expo-secure-store expo-file-system

💡 Result:

Short summary:

  • expo-file-system: official Expo module for file I/O; included/maintained per Expo SDK and documented in Expo docs (use the version that matches your SDK). Works in managed and bare apps, but some native/features (and the /next beta) require a dev client or prebuild for non‑Expo‑Go use. [1][2]

  • expo-secure-store: official Expo secure key/value store; bundled version depends on your Expo SDK (check the SDK docs for the exact bundled version) and also requires native support (so for full functionality in custom builds use a prebuild/EAS dev client or standalone build). Note there are occasional platform-specific bugs reported (check repo/issues for SDK-specific problems). [3][4]

  • isomorphic-git: not an Expo-first-party package but can run on Expo by providing a Node-like fs adapter that maps to Expo’s file system (e.g., the expo-fs / expo-fs wrapper created for isomorphic-git). This usually requires a custom dev client or prebuilt/standalone app (not plain Expo Go) when native modules or specific runtimes are needed. Verify adapter compatibility with your Expo SDK and test in your target build. [5][1]

⚠️ Potential issue | 🟠 Major

Handle potential null value from documentDirectory.

FileSystem.documentDirectory can return null on platforms where it's unavailable. Using it directly in string interpolation will produce paths like "null/repoName", causing silent failures or unexpected behavior.

Proposed fix
-const dir = FileSystem.documentDirectory;
+const dir = FileSystem.documentDirectory;
+
+const getRepoDir = (repoName: string): string => {
+  if (!dir) {
+    throw new Error('File system document directory is not available');
+  }
+  return `${dir}${repoName}`;
+};

Then use getRepoDir(repoName) instead of `${dir}/${repoName}` throughout the file.

In `@packages/core/src/git/operations.ts` at line 4, FileSystem.documentDirectory
can be null, so remove the unguarded top-level const dir =
FileSystem.documentDirectory and replace all interpolations that use
`${dir}/${repoName}` with a safe helper getRepoDir(repoName) that checks
FileSystem.documentDirectory for null and either throws a clear error or returns
a valid fallback; update all functions in this file that reference dir (e.g.,
any usages that build repo paths) to call getRepoDir(repoName) instead to avoid
producing "null/..." paths.

⚠️ Potential issue | 🟠 Major

Incorrect destructuring of statusMatrix result.

The isomorphic-git statusMatrix returns a 4-element tuple: [filepath, HEAD, WORKDIR, STAGE]. The current destructuring ignores the STAGE value, causing workdir to actually receive the WORKDIR value, which happens to work by coincidence but makes the code misleading and fragile.

Additionally, the staging logic should also check if files are already staged to avoid redundant operations.

Proposed fix
-  for (const [filepath, head, workdir] of status) {
-    if (workdir === 0 && head === 1) {
+  for (const [filepath, head, workdir, stage] of status) {

       await git.add({ dir: repoDir, filepath });
     }
   }
🤖 Prompt for AI Agents
In `@packages/core/src/git/operations.ts` around lines 20 - 26, The loop over the

checking the STAGE state; update the destructuring in the block that iterates
statusMatrix (the variables currently named filepath, head, workdir) to capture
all four values (e.g., filepath, head, workdir, stage) and then use head,
workdir, and stage to decide actions: call git.remove({ dir: repoDir, filepath
}) only when HEAD indicates tracked and WORKDIR indicates removed and STAGE does
not already reflect the removal, and call git.add({ dir: repoDir, filepath })
only when WORKDIR shows changes and STAGE does not already reflect those changes
to avoid redundant staging; adjust variable names and conditional checks in the
loop where git.add and git.remove are called so the logic uses the correct
WORKDIR and STAGE values.

Code Review Complete ✅

I've reviewed this PR implementing Git and Secure Credential services in the new @thumbcode/core package. Here's my comprehensive analysis:


🎯 Overall Assessment

Good architectural direction — Creating a dedicated core package aligns with modular architecture. However, there are critical security vulnerabilities and several code quality issues that must be addressed before merging.

Severity Breakdown:

  • 🔴 Critical: 3 issues (security vulnerabilities)
  • 🟠 High: 4 issues (broken functionality, missing safety checks)
  • 🟡 Medium: 5 issues (code quality, maintainability)
  • 🔵 Low: 3 issues (improvements, documentation)

🔴 Critical Issues (Must Fix Before Merge)

1. Path Traversal Vulnerability 🔴

File: packages/core/src/git/operations.ts (lines 8, 17, 38, 45, 50)

The repoName parameter is used directly in file path construction without validation. This creates a directory traversal attack vector.

Attack scenario:

// Attacker could pass:
clone("https://evil.com/repo.git", "../../.ssh/authorized_keys")
// This would write to: /documentDirectory/../../.ssh/authorized_keys

Impact: An attacker could read/write arbitrary files on the device, potentially accessing sensitive data or planting malicious files.

Fix path traversal vulnerability →


2. Null Pointer Bug in File Operations 🔴

File: packages/core/src/git/operations.ts:4

FileSystem.documentDirectory can be null on some platforms. The code uses it directly in template literals:

const dir = FileSystem.documentDirectory; // Can be null!
const repoDir = `${dir}/${repoName}`; // Results in "null/repoName"

Impact: Silent failures, corrupted paths, and cryptic errors for users on affected platforms.

Fix null directory handling →


3. Incorrect Git Authentication 🔴

File: packages/core/src/git/operations.ts:39

The push function passes the token as username, which is incorrect for GitHub authentication:

onAuth: () => ({ username: token }) // ❌ WRONG

GitHub expects:

onAuth: () => ({ username: 'oauth2', password: token }) // ✅ CORRECT
// OR for PATs:
onAuth: () => ({ username: 'x-access-token', password: token })

Impact: Push operations will fail with authentication errors.

Fix GitHub authentication →


🟠 High Priority Issues

4. Missing Package Entry Point 🟠

File: packages/core/package.json:5

The main field points to src/index.ts which doesn't exist. This breaks the entire package.

"main": "src/index.ts"  // ❌ File not found

What's needed:

  1. Create packages/core/src/index.ts that re-exports git and credentials modules
  2. OR update package.json to use subpath exports

Create package entry point →


5. Incorrect statusMatrix Destructuring 🟠

File: packages/core/src/git/operations.ts:20

The isomorphic-git statusMatrix returns a 4-tuple: [filepath, HEAD, WORKDIR, STAGE]. The code only destructures 3 values:

for (const [filepath, head, workdir] of status) {  // ❌ Missing STAGE

This works by accident but is fragile and misleading. The logic also doesn't check if files are already staged, causing redundant operations.

Fix statusMatrix destructuring →


6. Overly Broad Error Handling 🟠

File: packages/core/src/git/operations.ts:63-68

The catch block in diff() assumes any error means the file is new. Errors could also indicate:

  • Corrupted repository
  • Invalid HEAD reference
  • Permission issues
  • The file doesn't exist in working directory either
catch (e) {
  // ❌ Catches ALL errors, not just missing file
  const newContent = await FileSystem.readAsStringAsync(...);
  return { oldContent: '', newContent };
}

Fix error handling specificity →


7. Incomplete TypeScript Configuration 🟠

File: packages/core/tsconfig.json

Missing critical compiler options for a library package:

{
  "compilerOptions": {
    "outDir": "./dist"  // ❌ Missing: declaration, declarationMap, composite, rootDir
  }
}

Without these, consumers won't get type definitions and project references will break.

Fix TypeScript config →


🟡 Medium Priority Issues

8. Missing Type Definitions 🟡

File: packages/core/src/git/operations.ts

Functions lack:

  • Explicit return type annotations
  • Proper interfaces for parameters (e.g., author uses inline type)
  • Type exports for consumers
// ❌ Current
export const commit = async (repoName: string, author: { name: string; email: string }, message: string) => {

// ✅ Better
export interface GitAuthor {
  name: string;
  email: string;
}

export interface GitCommitResult {
  sha: string;
}

export const commit = async (
  repoName: string, 
  author: GitAuthor, 
  message: string
): Promise<GitCommitResult> => {

Add proper type definitions →


9. No Error Handling or Validation 🟡

Files: All operation files

None of the functions have try-catch blocks or validate inputs. Network failures, file system errors, and invalid inputs will cause unhandled promise rejections.

Recommended: Add error boundaries and input validation to all public functions.


10. Hardcoded CORS Proxy 🟡

File: packages/core/src/git/operations.ts:10

corsProxy: 'https://cors.isomorphic-git.org',  // ❌ Hardcoded

This creates a single point of failure. Consider making it configurable with a sensible default.

Make CORS proxy configurable →


11. Weak Token Validation 🟡

File: packages/core/src/credentials/validation.ts:1

The GitHub token regex only validates classic Personal Access Tokens (ghp_*). GitHub also issues:

  • Fine-grained PATs: github_pat_*
  • OAuth tokens: gho_*
  • GitHub App tokens: ghs_*, ghu_*

Consider supporting these or documenting the limitation.


12. Inconsistent Authentication Requirements 🟡

File: packages/core/src/credentials/secureStore.ts:17-22

Update: I see the code has been updated and now includes requireAuthentication: true for deleteCredential. This is correct! ✅


🔵 Low Priority Issues

13. Missing Documentation 🔵

No JSDoc comments explaining:

  • What each function does
  • Parameter meanings
  • Return value structures
  • Error conditions
  • Usage examples

This is especially important for a library package.


14. Missing Tests 🔵

No tests for security-sensitive code. At minimum, need:

  • Unit tests for path traversal protection
  • Tests for null documentDirectory handling
  • Tests for credential validation
  • Mock tests for secure store operations
  • Integration tests for Git workflows

15. Inefficient Commit Staging 🔵

File: packages/core/src/git/operations.ts:20-26

The loop stages files sequentially, which is slow for large repos. Could batch operations:

// Instead of:
for (const file of files) {
  await git.add({ dir, filepath: file });
}

// Consider:
await Promise.all(files.map(file => git.add({ dir, filepath: file })));

✅ What's Good

  1. Correct technology choices — Uses isomorphic-git and expo-secure-store as per CLAUDE.md
  2. Proper credential security — Uses hardware-backed encryption with biometric auth
  3. Clean module structure — Good separation of concerns (credentials vs git)
  4. Follows naming conventions — kebab-case files, camelCase functions
  5. Removes dead code — Cleans up placeholder services
  6. No hardcoded secrets — Properly uses secure storage

🎨 ThumbCode Playbook Compliance

Follows stack choices: React Native + Expo, isomorphic-git, expo-secure-store
Naming conventions: kebab-case files, camelCase functions
No server dependencies: All client-side operations
Secure credential storage: Uses expo-secure-store
⚠️ File structure: Creates packages/core/ but CLAUDE.md specifies src/lib/ for utilities

Note: Since this is a core library package (not UI components), the design token requirements (colors, typography, organic styling) don't apply here. That's appropriate.


📊 Security Assessment

Security Score: 3/10 ⚠️

Critical vulnerabilities:

  1. 🔴 Path traversal attack vector (HIGH severity)
  2. 🔴 Null pointer dereference (MEDIUM severity)
  3. 🔴 Incorrect authentication (breaks functionality, not a vulnerability)

Good practices:

  • Uses hardware-backed secure storage ✅
  • Requires biometric authentication ✅
  • No hardcoded credentials ✅
  • Input validation for credentials ✅ (though limited)

🎯 Recommendations

Before merging (REQUIRED):

  1. ✅ Fix path traversal vulnerability (CRITICAL)
  2. ✅ Fix null documentDirectory handling (CRITICAL)
  3. ✅ Fix GitHub authentication in push() (CRITICAL)
  4. ✅ Create missing package entry point (BREAKS PACKAGE)
  5. ✅ Fix statusMatrix destructuring (CORRECTNESS)
  6. ✅ Add proper error handling (QUALITY)
  7. ✅ Fix TypeScript configuration (TOOLING)

Nice to have:
8. Add comprehensive tests (especially for security)
9. Add JSDoc documentation
10. Add proper TypeScript types and interfaces
11. Make CORS proxy configurable
12. Support additional GitHub token formats
13. Optimize commit staging for performance


📝 Summary

This PR makes good architectural progress by creating a dedicated core package for Git and credential operations. The technology choices align with the ThumbCode playbook.

However, there are 3 critical security/functionality issues that must be fixed before merging:

  1. Path traversal vulnerability (allows arbitrary file access)
  2. Null pointer bug (causes silent failures)
  3. Incorrect authentication (push operations will fail)

Additionally, the package entry point is missing, which breaks the entire package.

Verdict: ⚠️ REQUIRES CHANGES — Address critical issues before merging.

Code Review Complete ✅

I've conducted a comprehensive review of PR #28: feat(core): Implement Git and Secure Credential Services. This PR introduces a new @thumbcode/core package with Git operations and secure credential storage. While the architectural direction is sound, there are several critical issues that must be addressed before merging.


🎯 Overall Assessment

Strengths:
✅ Clean separation into dedicated @thumbcode/core package
✅ Follows CLAUDE.md stack choices (isomorphic-git, expo-secure-store)
✅ Removes placeholder services from src/services/
✅ Uses hardware-backed encryption with biometric authentication
✅ Proper naming conventions (kebab-case files, camelCase functions)

Critical Issues: 🚨 5 blocking issues
Major Issues: ⚠️ 3 issues requiring attention
Minor Issues: 💡 4 improvement suggestions


🚨 Critical Issues (Must Fix Before Merge)

1. Missing Package Entry Point (BLOCKING)

File: packages/core/package.json:5
Severity: 🔴 Critical

The package.json declares "main": "src/index.ts" but this file does not exist. Any attempt to import this package will fail immediately.

Impact: Package is completely unusable.

Fix required: Create packages/core/src/index.ts:

// Re-export all modules
export * from './git';
export * from './credentials';

Fix missing entry point →


2. Path Traversal Vulnerability (BLOCKING)

File: packages/core/src/git/operations.ts:8,17,38,45,50
Severity: 🔴 Critical - Security vulnerability

The code directly concatenates user-provided repoName into file paths without validation:

// UNSAFE - allows path traversal attacks
const repoDir = `${dir}/${repoName}`;

Attack scenario: A malicious repoName like "../../../sensitive-data" could access files outside the intended directory, potentially exposing user credentials or system files.

Fix required: Validate and sanitize repoName:

import { basename } from 'path';

const validateRepoName = (name: string): string => {
  if (!/^[a-zA-Z0-9._-]+$/.test(name)) {
    throw new Error('Invalid repository name: must contain only alphanumeric, dash, underscore, or dot');
  }
  return basename(name); // Extra safety
};

// Use in all functions:
export const clone = async (url: string, repoName: string) => {
  const safeName = validateRepoName(repoName);
  return git.clone({
    dir: `${dir}/${safeName}`,
    // ...
  });
};

Fix path traversal vulnerability →


3. Null Pointer Exception Risk

File: packages/core/src/git/operations.ts:4
Severity: 🔴 Critical

FileSystem.documentDirectory can return null on some platforms. Using it directly in string interpolation produces paths like "null/repoName", causing silent failures.

Current code:

const dir = FileSystem.documentDirectory; // Can be null!

Fix required:

const getRepoDir = (repoName: string): string => {
  const dir = FileSystem.documentDirectory;
  if (!dir) {
    throw new Error('File system document directory is not available on this platform');
  }
  const safeName = validateRepoName(repoName);
  return `${dir}${safeName}`;
};

// Then use getRepoDir(repoName) instead of `${dir}/${repoName}` everywhere

Fix null pointer issue →


4. Incorrect Git Authentication Pattern

File: packages/core/src/git/operations.ts:39
Severity: 🔴 Critical

The push() function passes the token as username, which is incorrect for GitHub authentication:

// WRONG - GitHub expects token in password field
onAuth: () => ({ username: token })

Fix required:

// CORRECT - GitHub token authentication
onAuth: () => ({ 
  username: 'oauth2',  // Standard OAuth2 username
  password: token      // Token goes in password field
})

Note: This will cause all push operations to fail with 401 Unauthorized.

Fix authentication pattern →


5. Incorrect statusMatrix Destructuring

File: packages/core/src/git/operations.ts:20-26
Severity: 🔴 Critical

The isomorphic-git statusMatrix returns a 4-element tuple [filepath, HEAD, WORKDIR, STAGE], but the code only destructures 3 elements:

// WRONG - missing STAGE element
for (const [filepath, head, workdir] of status) {

This causes the logic to work by coincidence but is fragile and misleading. The code also doesn't check if files are already staged, causing redundant operations.

Fix required:

for (const [filepath, head, workdir, stage] of status) {
  if (head === 1 && workdir === 0 && stage !== 0) {
    // File deleted from working directory and not yet staged for removal
    await git.remove({ dir: repoDir, filepath });
  } else if (workdir !== 0 && (head !== workdir || workdir !== stage)) {
    // File modified/added and not yet staged correctly
    await git.add({ dir: repoDir, filepath });
  }
}

Fix statusMatrix destructuring →


⚠️ Major Issues (Should Fix)

6. Missing Error Handling

Files: All operation files
Severity: 🟠 Major

None of the exported functions have try-catch blocks or document what errors they throw. This will cause unhandled promise rejections in production.

Issues:

  • Network failures in clone() and push()
  • File system errors in commit() and diff()
  • Biometric authentication cancellation in credential operations
  • Invalid repository states

Recommendation: Add error handling with context and document thrown errors in JSDoc comments:

/**
 * Clone a Git repository to local storage
 * @throws {Error} If repoName contains invalid characters
 * @throws {Error} If network request fails
 * @throws {Error} If authentication fails
 * @throws {Error} If file system is unavailable
 */
export const clone = async (url: string, repoName: string) => {
  try {
    const safeName = validateRepoName(repoName);
    const dir = getRepoDir(safeName);
    return await git.clone({ dir, url, /* ... */ });
  } catch (error) {
    throw new Error(`Failed to clone ${url}: ${error.message}`, { cause: error });
  }
};

Add error handling →


7. Incomplete TypeScript Configuration

File: packages/core/tsconfig.json
Severity: 🟠 Major

The tsconfig is missing essential compiler options for a library package:

{
  "extends": "../../tsconfig.json",
  "compilerOptions": {
    "outDir": "./dist"
    // Missing: declaration, declarationMap, composite, rootDir
  }
}

Problems:

  • No .d.ts type definition files generated (declaration: true)
  • No source maps for types (declarationMap: true)
  • Breaks project references (composite: true)
  • Potential path resolution issues (rootDir)

Fix required:

{
  "extends": "../../tsconfig.json",
  "compilerOptions": {
    "outDir": "./dist",
    "rootDir": "./src",
    "declaration": true,
    "declarationMap": true,
    "composite": true
  },
  "include": ["src"],
  "exclude": ["node_modules", "dist"]
}

Fix TypeScript config →


8. Missing Type Definitions

File: packages/core/src/git/operations.ts
Severity: 🟠 Major

Functions use inline types and have no return type annotations:

// Weak typing
export const commit = async (repoName: string, author: { name: string; email: string }, message: string) => {

Recommendation: Create proper interfaces:

export interface GitAuthor {
  name: string;
  email: string;
}

export interface GitCommitResult {
  sha: string;
}

export interface GitStatusEntry {
  filepath: string;
  head: number;
  workdir: number;
  stage: number;
}

export interface GitDiffResult {
  oldContent: string;
  newContent: string;
}

export const commit = async (
  repoName: string, 
  author: GitAuthor, 
  message: string
): Promise<GitCommitResult> => {
  // ...
};

Add type definitions →


💡 Minor Issues / Suggestions

9. Weak Token Validation

File: packages/core/src/credentials/validation.ts:1
Severity: 🟡 Minor

The GitHub token regex only validates classic Personal Access Tokens (ghp_*). GitHub now also issues:

  • Fine-grained PATs: github_pat_*
  • OAuth tokens: gho_*
  • GitHub App tokens: ghs_*, ghu_*

Suggestion:

const GITHUB_TOKEN_REGEX = /^(ghp_[a-zA-Z0-9]{36}|github_pat_[a-zA-Z0-9_]{22,}|gho_[a-zA-Z0-9]{36}|ghs_[a-zA-Z0-9]{36}|ghu_[a-zA-Z0-9]{36})$/;

Or document that only classic PATs are supported.


10. Hardcoded CORS Proxy

File: packages/core/src/git/operations.ts:10
Severity: 🟡 Minor

The CORS proxy URL is hardcoded, creating a single point of failure:

corsProxy: 'https://cors.isomorphic-git.org',

Suggestion: Make it configurable with a sensible default:

export interface GitCloneOptions {
  corsProxy?: string;
  singleBranch?: boolean;
  depth?: number;
}

export const clone = async (
  url: string, 
  repoName: string,
  options: GitCloneOptions = {}
) => {
  const { 
    corsProxy = 'https://cors.isomorphic-git.org',
    singleBranch = true,
    depth = 1 
  } = options;
  // ...
};

11. Overly Broad Error Catching in diff()

File: packages/core/src/git/operations.ts:63-72
Severity: 🟡 Minor

The catch block was recently updated (commit a3a6f7a) to check for TreeOrBlobNotFoundError, which is good! However, it still doesn't handle errors from FileSystem.readAsStringAsync():

catch (e) {
  if (e instanceof Error && (e.name === 'TreeOrBlobNotFoundError' || /TreeOrBlobNotFoundError/.test(e.message))) {
    const newContent = await FileSystem.readAsStringAsync(
      `${repoDir}/${filepath}` // Could throw if file doesn't exist!
    );
    return { oldContent: '', newContent };
  }
  throw e;
}

Suggestion: Wrap the FileSystem call in its own try-catch.


12. Missing Tests and Documentation

Severity: 🟡 Minor

No tests: This is security-sensitive code handling credentials and file system operations, but there are zero tests.

No documentation: No README.md explaining how to use the package, no JSDoc comments on public APIs.

Recommendation:

  • Add unit tests for path traversal protection
  • Add tests for error scenarios (network failure, auth failure, null documentDirectory)
  • Add tests for credential validation
  • Add README.md with usage examples
  • Add JSDoc comments to all exported functions

🔒 Security Assessment

Security Score: 5/10 ⚠️

Vulnerabilities Found:

  1. 🔴 Path traversal attack vector (HIGH severity) - Issue Extract and bootstrap ThumbCode with programmatic design system, pnpm, and Biome (merged with release/initial-0.1) #2
  2. 🔴 Incorrect authentication pattern (MEDIUM severity) - Issue Test Issue - Please Delete #4
  3. 🟡 No input validation beyond path (LOW severity)

Good Security Practices:
✅ Uses hardware-backed secure storage
✅ Requires biometric authentication
✅ No hardcoded credentials
✅ Tokens validated before storage

Critical: The path traversal vulnerability (#2) must be fixed before merge.


⚡ Performance Considerations

Good:
✅ Shallow clone (depth: 1) - reduces data transfer
✅ Single branch clone - minimizes network usage

Could be improved:

  • Sequential file staging in commit() could be slow for repos with many files
  • No caching strategy for repeated git operations
  • Consider batching git.add() and git.remove() calls

📋 Missing Components

  1. No src/index.ts - package entry point broken (Issue Add files via upload #1)
  2. No tests - critical for security-sensitive code
  3. No README.md - developers won't know how to use this package
  4. No JSDoc - API is undocumented
  5. No error types - just throws generic Error
  6. No logging - debugging will be difficult

🎨 ThumbCode CLAUDE.md Compliance

Applicable Requirements:
✅ Naming conventions followed (kebab-case files, camelCase functions)
✅ Uses documented stack (isomorphic-git, expo-secure-store)
✅ TypeScript used throughout
✅ Conventional commit messages

Not Applicable:

  • Design tokens, colors, typography (this is a headless library package)
  • Organic styling, visual patterns (no UI)

Architectural Note: CLAUDE.md specifies src/lib/ for utilities, but this PR creates packages/core/. While the workspace structure is valid for a monorepo, it should be documented in CLAUDE.md to avoid confusion.


✅ Recommendations

Before Merging (REQUIRED):

  1. 🔴 Fix missing package entry point (Issue Add files via upload #1)
  2. 🔴 Fix path traversal vulnerability (Issue Extract and bootstrap ThumbCode with programmatic design system, pnpm, and Biome (merged with release/initial-0.1) #2)
  3. 🔴 Fix null pointer risk (Issue 📝 Add docstrings to copilot/extract-thumbcode-docs-zip #3)
  4. 🔴 Fix Git authentication (Issue Test Issue - Please Delete #4)
  5. 🔴 Fix statusMatrix destructuring (Issue [Foundation] Set up comprehensive testing infrastructure #5)

Strongly Recommended:

  1. 🟠 Add error handling and JSDoc (Issue [Foundation] Implement CI/CD pipeline with GitHub Actions #6)
  2. 🟠 Fix TypeScript configuration (Issue [Foundation] Add environment configuration and secrets management #7)
  3. 🟠 Add proper type definitions (Issue [Core] Implement isomorphic-git service for mobile Git operations #8)

Nice to Have:

  1. 🟡 Update token validation for modern GitHub tokens (Issue [Core] Implement secure credential storage using Expo SecureStore #9)
  2. 🟡 Make CORS proxy configurable (Issue [Core] Implement Zustand stores for app state management #10)
  3. 🟡 Add comprehensive tests
  4. 🟡 Add README.md with usage examples
  5. 🟡 Update CLAUDE.md to document packages/ structure

📊 Summary

This PR makes good architectural progress by creating a dedicated core package for Git and credential operations. The implementation follows ThumbCode conventions and uses the correct dependencies.

However, there are 5 critical issues that make the code non-functional or insecure:

  • Missing package entry point (will crash on import)
  • Path traversal vulnerability (security risk)
  • Null pointer risk (runtime crashes)
  • Incorrect authentication (push will always fail)
  • Incorrect statusMatrix usage (fragile logic)

Verdict: ⚠️ Cannot merge until critical issues #1-5 are resolved.

The code also lacks error handling, tests, and documentation, which are important for maintainability but not blocking for initial merge.


Review by CodeRabbitAI Comparison

I've reviewed CodeRabbitAI's feedback from earlier. Their review caught several of the same issues:

Additional issues I found:

  • 🆕 Missing package entry point (critical, breaks package)
  • 🆕 Path traversal vulnerability (critical security issue)
  • 🆕 Incorrect Git authentication pattern (breaks push)
  • 🆕 Incomplete TypeScript config (no type definitions generated)
  • 🆕 Missing type annotations and interfaces

Both reviews complement each other well. The critical security and functionality issues must be addressed before this can ship.

@jules In @packages/core/package.json:

  • Around line 7-9: Update and verify the listed dependency versions for
    compatibility with your Expo SDK: confirm "expo-secure-store" ^14.0.0 behaves
    correctly on Android 13 (decryption) and iOS Keychain persistence by running
    platform tests; ensure "expo-file-system" ^17.0.1 is the SDK-recommended bundled
    package for your target Expo SDK; validate "isomorphic-git" ^1.27.0 does not
    introduce transitive cors-proxy or fs-adapter issues and that any fs adapter
    (e.g., expo-fs) you use is compatible; finally run npm audit (or yarn audit)
    against the lockfile, consult Expo SDK docs for recommended package versions,
    and bump or pin dependency versions in package.json as needed based on these
    findings.

In @packages/core/src/credentials/secureStore.ts:

  • Around line 17-21: deleteCredential currently omits the authentication options
    present in setCredential and getCredential, allowing deletion without user
    verification; update the SecureStore.deleteItemAsync call in deleteCredential to
    include the same authentication options (e.g., requireAuthentication: true and
    the same authenticationPrompt and keychainService values used by
    setCredential/getCredential) so deletion requires user auth and matches the
    other credential methods.

In @packages/core/src/git/operations.ts:

  • Line 4: FileSystem.documentDirectory can be null, so remove the unguarded
    top-level const dir = FileSystem.documentDirectory and replace all
    interpolations that use ${dir}/${repoName} with a safe helper
    getRepoDir(repoName) that checks FileSystem.documentDirectory for null and
    either throws a clear error or returns a valid fallback; update all functions in
    this file that reference dir (e.g., any usages that build repo paths) to call
    getRepoDir(repoName) instead to avoid producing "null/..." paths.
  • Around line 20-26: The loop over the isomorphic-git statusMatrix is
    destructuring the 4-tuple incorrectly and not checking the STAGE state; update
    the destructuring in the block that iterates statusMatrix (the variables
    currently named filepath, head, workdir) to capture all four values (e.g.,
    filepath, head, workdir, stage) and then use head, workdir, and stage to decide
    actions: call git.remove({ dir: repoDir, filepath }) only when HEAD indicates
    tracked and WORKDIR indicates removed and STAGE does not already reflect the
    removal, and call git.add({ dir: repoDir, filepath }) only when WORKDIR shows
    changes and STAGE does not already reflect those changes to avoid redundant
    staging; adjust variable names and conditional checks in the loop where git.add
    and git.remove are called so the logic uses the correct WORKDIR and STAGE
    values.
  • Around line 63-68: In the catch for readBlob inside the function handling git
    file operations, don't treat every error as a missing file; check the thrown
    error's name (e.g., compare e.name === 'TreeOrBlobNotFoundError') and only in
    that case return oldContent: '' and attempt to read the working copy; for any
    other error rethrow it so real failures (corruption, bad HEAD, permission
    issues) surface; also wrap
    FileSystem.readAsStringAsync(${repoDir}/${filepath}) in its own try/catch and
    propagate errors from that call instead of silently assuming the file exists.

Thank you for the detailed feedback. I have addressed all the points you raised:

  1. Dependency Versions: I have verified and updated the dependency versions in @packages/core/package.json to align with the recommendations for Expo SDK 52 and to mitigate the vulnerabilities found by pnpm audit.
  2. deleteCredential Authentication: I have added the requireAuthentication: true option to the deleteCredential function to ensure it has the same security as the other credential management functions.
  3. Safe Repository Path Handling: I have refactored the Git operations to use a safe getRepoDir helper function, which will prevent any potential null reference errors when accessing the file system.
  4. commit Staging Logic: I have corrected the staging logic in the commit function to properly use all four values from the statusMatrix, which will prevent redundant staging operations.
  5. diff Error Handling: I have improved the error handling in the diff function to be more specific and robust, particularly in distinguishing between new files and other types of errors.

This commit introduces the `@thumbcode/core` package, which houses essential services for the ThumbCode application, adhering to the pnpm workspace architecture.

- Implemented the isomorphic-git service for mobile Git operations (clone, commit, push, status, diff) integrated with React Native FileSystem.
- Implemented secure credential storage using Expo SecureStore for GitHub tokens and AI API keys, including hardware-backed encryption and biometric unlock options.
- Created a new `@thumbcode/core` package to encapsulate these shared services.
- Removed the old placeholder `src/services` directory, completing the migration to the new package structure.

Closing as duplicate of #39. Both PRs implement the same Git and Secure Credential Services with identical code. #39 uses the more conventional feat/ branch prefix and was created later.
