15ab156d62 feat: add Criterion benchmarks for safety layer hot paths (#836)
* feat: add Criterion benchmarks for safety layer hot paths

Add benchmark suite using Criterion.rs for performance-critical paths:

- benches/safety_check.rs: Sanitizer (clean/adversarial), Validator
  (normal/long/tool params), LeakDetector (clean/secrets/HTTP scan)
- benches/tool_dispatch.rs: JSON parsing, schema validation patterns,
  tool output serialization

CI compiles benchmarks on every PR to prevent regressions.
Run locally with: cargo bench

* fix: add bench-compile to CI roll-up job

Include bench-compile in the run-tests roll-up job's needs array
so benchmark compilation failures block PRs.

* fix: add black_box to benchmarks, use real SafetyLayer pipeline

- Wrap all benchmark inputs in criterion::black_box to prevent
  compiler optimization from skewing results
- Replace generic JSON benchmarks in tool_dispatch.rs with actual
  SafetyLayer pipeline benchmarks (sanitize_tool_output, wrap_for_llm,
  scan_inbound_for_secrets)
- Keep JSON parsing benchmarks for tool parameter overhead measurement

* fix: apply cargo fmt to benchmark files

* fix: copy benches/ in Dockerfile to fix manifest parse error

Cargo.toml references [[bench]] targets that must exist for manifest
parsing to succeed. Add COPY benches/ to the Docker build stage.

* chore: re-trigger CI after adding skip-regression-check label

Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.6 <[email protected]>

* fix: address PR review comments on criterion benchmarks

- Move header string allocations outside b.iter() closure in
  http_request_scan to avoid measuring allocation overhead
- Add .unwrap() to serde_json::from_str results in JSON parsing
  benchmarks to catch invalid JSON instead of silently benchmarking
  error construction
- Add comment explaining why benches/ COPY is needed in Dockerfile
  ([[bench]] entries require source files for cargo manifest parsing)

* chore: update Cargo.lock with criterion dependencies

* fix(bench): build secret-like strings at runtime to avoid CI secret scanners

Construct AWS key and GitHub token patterns via format!() concatenation
so the literal strings don't appear in source and trigger push protection
or secret scanning in CI pipelines. The resulting strings still match
LeakDetector patterns for valid benchmarking.

* fix: rename tool_dispatch bench, drop async_tokio, replace JSON benchmarks

1. Rename `tool_dispatch.rs` → `safety_pipeline.rs` to match actual
   content (SafetyLayer pipeline benchmarks).
2. Drop unused `async_tokio` feature from criterion dependency.
3. Replace serde_json::from_str benchmarks (third-party only) with
   Validator::validate_tool_params exercising IronClaw's recursive
   validation on simple, complex, and deeply nested JSON inputs.
4. Add `--all-features` to CI bench-compile to match clippy/test
   convention and verify both DB backends.

Addresses zmanian's review feedback on PR #836.
