# MASTG Assign IDs Replace all fake/placeholder component IDs (e.g. `MASTG-KNOW-0x01`, `MASTG-BEST-0x56`) with the next real sequential IDs across file names and file contents. ## When to use - A PR adds new MASTG components using `0x##` placeholder IDs - You are asked to "fix fake IDs", "assign real IDs", or "use next available IDs" ## Fake-ID convention New draft items use the pattern `MASTG-TYPE-0x##` (hex suffix, e.g. `0x01`, `0x0a`). Real IDs use zero-padded 4-digit decimal: `MASTG-TYPE-NNNN` (e.g. `MASTG-KNOW-0122`). **Non-standard fake IDs**: Some draft items may use a different convention that is NOT caught by the `0x##` pattern — for example `MASTG-BEST-00ea` (lowercase hex digits without the `0x` prefix). These are still fake IDs and must be replaced. After running `find_fakes.sh`, manually scan the `git diff --name-only origin/master...HEAD` output for any ID-like suffix that contains lowercase letters (`a`–`f`) or is not exactly 4 decimal digits. ## Step-by-step workflow All scripts are in `scripts/` relative to this skill. Run from the repository root. ### 1. Find all fake-ID files in the current branch ```bash bash .github/skills/mastg-assign-ids/scripts/find_fakes.sh ``` See [scripts/find_fakes.sh](scripts/find_fakes.sh). ### 2. Get the next available real IDs ```bash python3 .github/skills/mastg-assign-ids/scripts/next_id.py ``` Prints one line per component type, e.g.: ```txt MASTG-APP-0034 MASTG-BEST-0046 MASTG-DEMO-0542 MASTG-KNOW-0132 MASTG-TECH-0156 MASTG-TEST-0351 MASTG-TOOL-0151 ``` If multiple new components of the same type are introduced in the same PR, allocate IDs sequentially: first new file → next_id, second → next_id+1, etc. See [scripts/next_id.py](scripts/next_id.py). ### 3. Build the replacement mapping Map each fake ID to the real ID you just allocated. Record the mapping explicitly before proceeding, e.g.: ```txt MASTG-KNOW-0x01 → MASTG-KNOW-0122 MASTG-KNOW-0x02 → MASTG-KNOW-0123 MASTG-BEST-0x56 → MASTG-BEST-0045 ``` Important ordering rules: pass longer/more-specific patterns first (e.g. `0x0a` before `0x01`, `0xXX` before anything else). ### 4. Rename files Use `git mv` to preserve history: ```bash git mv old-path/MASTG-TYPE-0x01.md new-path/MASTG-TYPE-NNNN.md ``` For demos (directory-based IDs): ```bash git mv demos/ios/MASVS-CAT/MASTG-DEMO-0x01 demos/ios/MASVS-CAT/MASTG-DEMO-NNNN ``` ### 5. Replace in-content references Pass `OLD=NEW` pairs as arguments — longer patterns first: ```bash python3 .github/skills/mastg-assign-ids/scripts/fix_ids.py \ MASTG-KNOW-0x0a=MASTG-KNOW-0131 \ MASTG-KNOW-0x01=MASTG-KNOW-0122 \ MASTG-BEST-0x56=MASTG-BEST-0045 ``` This covers frontmatter `id:` fields and `knowledge:` lists automatically (they live in `.md` files). See [scripts/fix_ids.py](scripts/fix_ids.py). ### 6. Verify ```bash bash .github/skills/mastg-assign-ids/scripts/verify.sh python3 .github/skills/mastg-assign-ids/scripts/next_id.py ``` `verify.sh` exits 1 if any fake IDs remain. `next_id.py` should now report incremented next IDs. See [scripts/verify.sh](scripts/verify.sh). ### 7. Give the user a summary of the changes Provide a summary of the ID changes, e.g.: ```md ID assignments used in this PR: | Fake ID | Real ID | |---------|---------| | MASTG-KNOW-0x01 | MASTG-KNOW-0122 | | MASTG-KNOW-0x02 | MASTG-KNOW-0123 | | MASTG-BEST-0x56 | MASTG-BEST-0045 | ``` ## Component locations | Type | Files/dirs | |------|-----------| | MASTG-APP | `apps/*.md` | | MASTG-BEST | `best-practices/*.md` | | MASTG-DEMO | `demos/<platform>/<MASVS-CAT>/MASTG-DEMO-NNNN/` (directory) | | MASTG-KNOW | `knowledge/<platform>/<MASVS-CAT>/MASTG-KNOW-NNNN.md` | | MASTG-TECH | `techniques/<platform>/MASTG-TECH-NNNN.md` | | MASTG-TEST | `tests-beta/<platform>/<MASVS-CAT>/MASTG-TEST-NNNN.md` | | MASTG-TOOL | `tools/<type>/MASTG-TOOL-NNNN.md` | ## Important notes - Always use `git mv`, never `mv`, so renames are tracked in history. - Always scope work to files changed in the current branch. Never touch the whole repo. - Exclude `.github/` from all searches and replacements (all scripts do this automatically). - The `id:` field in frontmatter must match the filename.
