| # Agent Guide for Apache Synapse |
| |
| This file is read by automated agents (security scanners, code analyzers, |
| AI assistants) operating on this repository. |
| |
| ## Security |
| |
| Security model: [SECURITY.md](./SECURITY.md) -> [THREAT_MODEL.md](./THREAT_MODEL.md) |
| |
| Agents that scan this repository should consult `SECURITY.md` and the linked |
| `THREAT_MODEL.md` before reporting issues. Synapse is a mediation engine / ESB: |
| the untrusted message sender is the adversary, while the integration |
| configuration (sequences, scripts, XSLT/XQuery bodies, endpoint addresses) is |
| trusted operator input. The model covers transports, XSLT/XQuery transforms |
| (XXE/SSRF), dynamic endpoint routing (SSRF), and message DoS. |
